Contact Your Representative to Ask Them to Protect Women & Girls in Sports
- By Eagle Forum
On April 6th, Biden’s Department of Education released a regulation that will erase the protections the law provides female athletes. The new Title IX rule will allow biological males to play in female sports in schools and colleges. Although twenty states have passed laws protecting these programs, the new regulation will override state sovereignty and make every school seek an accommodation in every sport at every grade level if they want to have a girls-only team. This is in direct conflict with the original raison d’etre of Title IX.
Tim Scott and American Exceptionalism
- By Star Parker
Republican Sen. Tim Scott of South Carolina has announced the formation of an exploratory committee for his candidacy for president.
You may have noticed that Scott is Black. We may ask, in this woke age of ours, the extent to which this matters in his candidacy.
I think it does matter, which requires some explanation given that I am adamantly opposed to identity politics in all its shapes and forms.
Should Scott run and win, he will not be America's first Black president. When America's first Black president, Barack Obama, did run and win, it was widely viewed as a turning point in American history.
Trans Shooter Murders Christian Children
- By Winston McCuen
The truth about homosexuality -- as being, at bottom, murderous personal confusion and lostness -- is now out of the closet. The "progressive" sodomite philosophy has spread like a deadening cancer across America and the West. Open homosexuals now live all among us, and hold positions of power and influence. In the name of love, and from cowardly fear of man, we have foolishly accepted filthy, butt-screwing depravity among our own kith and kin. So what was once, decades ago, a relatively quiet and peaceful appeal for tolerance and acceptance on the social periphery has now morphed, by inevitable and Biblically foreseen stages, into full-blown anti-Christian homo-tyranny and murder reminiscent of Lot's flight from Sodom.
Florida Enacts ‘Heartbeat Protection Act,’ Reaffirming Life Issue’s Popular Appeal
- By Joshua Arnold - The Washington Stand
Florida Governor Ron DeSantis (R) on Thursday approved Florida SB 300, the “Heartbeat Protection Act,” which in most cases protects the life of unborn babies after six weeks of pregnancy, after both chambers of the legislature passed it by a wide margin. Florida law previously protected unborn life after 15 weeks. The bill marks substantial progress toward protecting unborn life in one of the nation’s largest states, even as the national media tries to frame a narrative that pro-life policies are political losers.
An Anatomy of Courage
- By Mike Scruggs
Quotes on Courage, Truth, and Wisdom We Should Not Forget
“Courage is not simply one of the virtues, but the form of every virtue at the testing point, which means at the point of highest reality. A chastity or honesty or mercy which yields to danger will be chaste or merciful only on conditions. Pilate was merciful until it became risky.” — C. S. Lewis (1898-1963)
“Real valor consists not of being insensible to danger, but in being prompt to confront and disarm it.” —Sir Walter Scott (1771-1832)
“If we take the generally accepted definition of bravery as a quality which knows not fear, I have never seen a brave man. All men are frightened. The more intelligent they are, the more they are frightened. The courageous man is the man who forces himself, in spite of his fears, to carry on.” —General George S. Patton, United States Army (1885-1945)
“Where courage is not, no other virtue can survive except by accident.” —Samuel Johnson (1709-1784)
Life Legal Defense Foundation Secures Victory in Qui Tam Action Against Chemical Abortion Purveyor Danco
- By Life Legal Defense Foundation
NAPA, Calif. -- Life Legal achieved a significant victory in a qui tam action filed against Danco, the pharmaceutical company created specifically to import and distribute Mifeprex, the deadly chemical abortion pill. The lawsuit, brought under the False Claims Act, alleged that Danco knowingly and willfully failed to pay customs duties on the abortifacient drug, imported from China, resulting in significant financial losses to the U.S. government.
After a thorough investigation, Danco has admitted to its failure to pay the required Customs Duties on the imported pills, which it failed to label with the country of origin. As a result, Danco has agreed to reimburse the government $765,000 under the False Claims Act, which allows whistleblowers to bring lawsuits on behalf of the government and share in any recovery.

A Morning In April, 1775 - Part 2
- By W.H. Lamb
“No King But King Jesus”!
“By the rude bridge that arched the flood,
their flag to April’s breeze unfurled.
Here once the embattled farmers stood
and fired the shot heard ‘round the world”
I’ve always loved Emerson’s famous “Concord Hymn”, the first stanza of which I’ve quoted above. It’s carved onto the famous “Minuteman Statue”, erected in 1875, that stands on the west side of The Old North Bridge in Concord, Massachusetts, on the spot where our American patriots fired volleys of musket fire at the British troops on the east side of the original bridge (the graves of two of the three British soldiers killed at this battle are buried by an old stone wall, near the bridge).
Regulatory Octopus Is Strangling Our Economy
- By Stephen Moore
Every schoolkid knows -- or used to know -- that the United States has three branches of government. At least that's what the textbooks say.
But really, we have four branches of government.
That's because Congress -- the legislative branch -- has for decades delegated lawmaking authority to the unconstitutional fourth branch of the U.S. government: independent regulatory agencies. By some estimates, there are more than 300 of these agencies sticking their nose into every aspect of American life and business, from what kind of car you can buy to the temperature setting on your thermostat to what you can build on your own private property.
Faith Communities Unite in Prayer for Abused Children
- By Blue Sunday Child Abuse Prevention Initiative
HARLINGEN, Texas -- Blue Sunday Child Abuse Prevention Initiative, a non-profit organization dedicated to preventing child abuse and neglect, is calling on communities across the country to recognize the annual Blue Sunday Day of Prayer for Abused Children on April 30th.
Since 1994, Blue Sunday has been raising awareness about the devastating effects of child abuse and providing resources and support to those affected by it. The organization encourages churches and communities to hold a Blue Sunday time of prayer during their service, April 30th, to raise awareness about the issue and to support victims and their families.
The Fed Has More Than a 'Credibility' Problem
- By Veronique de Rugy
I have heard some people say that the Federal Reserve has a credibility problem. The agency missed the biggest inflation spike since the 1980s, was slow to start rolling back pandemic policies and failed to spot the risks that some banks, such as Silicon Valley Bank (SVB), were facing. Instead of instilling confidence and stability, the Fed's policy communication has at times been so unclear and confused that it has only served to exacerbate market volatility.
Credibility is a big enough problem, but unfortunately the Fed's issues go beyond that. The Fed as an institution, along with its policies, seem to be a main source of the economic instability America faces. In fact, David Stockman, Budget Director under President Ronald Reagan, calls the Fed "an SDI" -- a Systematically Dangerous Institution.
Peace Comes From Strength
- By Anne Schlafly
This week, the Russian parliament voted to toughen their laws on military conscription, because thousands of Russians have fled their country rather than be drafted for the war against Ukraine.
Russia needs more fighters on the front lines. The new law puts severe penalties on non-compliance, including the government preventing the draft dodgers from working, driving, owning property, getting a bank loan, or accessing social benefits.
Human Life International Hungary Marks April 18 Anniversary of Pro-Life Constitutional Protection of the Preborn
- By Human Life International
Dr. Imre Téglásy Leads Decades-Long Battle to Defeat Socialist Abortion Mindset to Save 50k Babies
FRONT ROYAL, Va. -- April 18 marks the anniversary of Hungary's constitutional protection of preborn children by parliament. Drafters and supporters called the country's new foundational document the Easter Constitution, as it was signed on Easter Monday 2011. It is a date known well by Dr. Imre Téglásy, Director of Human Life International Hungary. At its adoption by Hungary's parliament in 2011, the constitution established that "the life of the fetus shall be protected from the moment of conception." Téglásy explained that while this was a step in the right direction, it meant very little without any laws to support pro-life practices. A September 2022 passage of a Hungarian law that requires expectant mothers to hear their baby's heartbeat prior to obtaining an abortion is the only one of its kind in Europe. Even this "heartbeat law" did not shift societal attitudes in the traditionally Catholic country, and a similar initiative failed in neighboring Slovakia. Nonetheless, Téglásy and his Hungarian team are working hard to foster a culture of life in the eastern European nation.

The Only Way Out Is Through
- By Josh Hammer
In 2017, my friend Rod Dreher published his popular book, "The Benedict Option: A Strategy for Christians in a Post-Christian Nation." Dreher's basic prescription, already intimately familiar to Orthodox Jews, is a localist focus on the cohesive formation of tight-knit, virtuous, religious communities as the best way of enduring the cultural onslaught of progressivism and secularism.
ESG Battles Heating Up Over State Pension Plan
- By Rick Brundrett - The Nerve
As S.C. lawmakers move closer to banning liberal ESG factors in state pension plan investments, the commission overseeing those funds is reducing at least one global management firm’s control over shareholder votes that come with the billions of public retirement dollars flowing to companies.
But some conservatives are skeptical of the commission’s latest actions.
Michael Hitchcock, the S.C. Retirement System Investment Commission’s (RSIC) chief executive officer, recently told The Nerve that in “response to the criticism over ESG” (environmental, social and governance) policies, New York-based BlackRock Inc., which as of last fiscal year managed more than $10 billion in state pension investments, developed a “Voter’s Choice Program” that will allow the commission to direct how its shareholder proxy votes will be cast “as if we owned the shares directly.”
Shaming Students into Silence
- By Capitol Resource Institute
WARNING: Forced silence coming to a school near you on April 14, 2023
SACRAMENTO, Calif. -- Friday, April 14th, is the Day of Silence, sponsored by the Gay, Lesbian, & Straight Education Network (GLSEN). Each year, GLSEN promotes this event nationwide and the extreme Left once again uses our schools to push their agenda.
GLSEN, the Gay, Lesbian, and Straight Education Network, is rallying the troops for their Day of Silence. And by troops we mean, students in schools. And no, don't expect them to ask your permission. For some reason schools feel the need to bow to GLSEN and allow the Day of Silence to take place on campuses all across the US without informing parents.
WHO Vies for Global Dominance
- By Eagle Forum
Sovereignty Coalition Upholds U.S. Independence Against WHO
Over 246 years ago, our founding fathers declared the American colonies sovereign by signing the Declaration of Independence. The ideals of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness were central to our national identity. The founders put their lives on the line to ensure that generations to come would have the freedom of self-government. However, those fundamental freedoms have been under attack since our nation’s founding from various nations, ideologies and international organizations. And as we have seen in recent years, the problem is only getting worse.
Over 32,000 Fewer Abortions Occurred as a Result of Dobbs, Report Finds
- By Dan Hart - The Washington Stand
A new report released Tuesday revealed that in the six months following the Supreme Court’s Dobbs decision that overturned Roe v. Wade, over 32,000 fewer abortions were carried out in the U.S. compared to the average monthly number that occurred before Dobbs. While pro-life advocates are praising the news as compelling proof that pro-life state laws passed in the wake of Dobbs are saving lives, medical experts are also expressing concern that the decrease in surgical abortions is leading to an increase in dangerous chemical abortions.
Congress Considering RESTRICT Act to Expand Federal Power
- By Peter Rykowski - The New American
Members of Congress are seeking to enact a bill that — despite ostensibly being just a “TikTok ban” — would give new, tyrannical powers to the federal government.
S. 686, titled the “Restricting the Emergence of Security Threats that Risk Information and Communications Technology (RESTRICT) Act,” is sponsored by Senator Mark Warner (D-Va.) and is cosponsored by 25 other senators, both Republicans and Democrats.
S. 686 is being sold to the American people as merely a “TikTok ban.” However, this bill would do far more than just that — in reality, it would amount to a second “PATRIOT Act.”

Radioisotopes and the Age of the Earth
- By Charles Creager, Jr.
Radiometric dating is the best argument there is for an old Earth. In fact, dating methods based on long lived radioactive elements has been the toughest area for young earth creationists to deal with. This is because at first glance it seemed to prove that the Earth is billions of years old. In fact, it has then more to persuade people of the evolutionary view of earth history than anything else that exists. On the surface it may seem almost ironclad but studies involving healing diffusion rates in zircon crystals have shown a fundamental flaw in the assumptions behind radiometric dating.
Distinguished Scholar and Preeminent Expert on Black Confederates Passes March 11, 2023
- By Gene Kizer, Jr., Charleston Athenaeum Press
He was a warm, extremely witty, engaging speaker
I was deeply saddened to hear of the passing of Professor Edward C. Smith of Washington, D.C. in March. He was a beloved friend of many in the Sons of Confederate Veterans and when he spoke at the SCV National Reunion in Lexington, Kentucky August 12, 1993, he was introduced with thunderous applause as "Professor Ed Smith, black Confederate."
He taught at American University for 45 years becoming the first tenured African-American professor at AU, and he co-founded American University's Civil War Institute.
At the 1993 Reunion, Professor Smith said that blacks fought enthusiastically for the South in the War Between the States for the same reason they fought for the Colonists in the Revolutionary War, which he called "the first Confederacy." It was about defending home and family, same as for whites. Remember, Crispus Attucks was the first man killed in the American Revolution and he was of African and Indian descent.
Google's Gmail Has Been Blocking Times Examiner Emails
- By Press Release
It was reported last year that Google was blocking Conservative emails. It became so noticeable that the Republican National Committee had filed a lawsuit against Google, alleging the company has been suppressing its email solicitations ahead of the midterm elections last November — an allegation Google denies — an obvious attempt to affect the elections.
We have noticed that since last April 2022, many of our Gmail recipients were not getting our newsletter. Our Online TE Newsletter was not even reaching our recipients' spam/junk folders, let alone their inboxes. So they had no choice to either accept or reject our newsletter. Google assumes that responsibility itself. In all our Newsletter emails we have an unsubscribe link that we honor and will accept when requested.
Abortion Pill Rulings Could Send FDA Approval to the Supreme Court
- By Joy Stockbauer - The Washington Stand
Friday afternoon, a U.S. district court judge in Texas issued a long-awaited ruling in the case Alliance for Hippocratic Medicine v. U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The judge decided in favor of the plaintiff, agreeing that the FDA’s approval of the chemical abortion drug regimen was politicized and bypassed safety concerns in the rush to put abortion drugs on the U.S. market. The judge gave the federal government one week to file an appeal before the ruling would go into effect, revoking FDA approval of the chemical abortion regimen and removing it from the market.
Muslims Turning the Tide in the School Culture Wars
- By Betsy McCaughey
In a slap to Muslim girls at Stuyvesant High School, the school is cancelling single-sex swim lessons, even though swim instruction is required to graduate. That forces the girls to choose between preserving their modesty and getting a diploma.
Count on Muslim families to fight back and likely prevail. Nationwide, Muslims are taking up the battle in schools to protect traditional religious values, including modesty.
Move over, Roman Catholics, evangelical Christians and conservative Jews. Reinforcements have arrived, and they're turning the tide.
