DeSantis Stumps in Greenville
- By Terry M. Thacker, Times Examiner Reporter
Presidential candidate Ron DeSantis stumped in the Palmetto State this past Friday, finishing the day at the Expo Center in Greenville.
Over a thousand people showed up to hear the Florida governor speak for nearly an hour, touting his accomplishments as governor and declaring what he plans to do if elected to the White House. On several occasions, he received thunderous applause and even a few standing ovations.
Many of those in attendance are already in DeSantis' corner. Others came to hear what he had to say before making up their minds. Undecided voters have over eight months before they have to make their decision in the voting booth.

Woke Brands Back Off Pride Month as American Fury Grows
- By Suzanne Bowdey - The Washington Stand
For most CEOs, Pride Month couldn’t have come at a more inopportune time. As companies like Target, Bud Light, and others desperately try to control the flames burning down their brands, this annual test of LGBT loyalty is putting most businesses in a position they’d rather not be in: outraging an already agitated consumer base or ticking off the lobby they’ve worked two decades to appease. Faced with the choice of becoming unprofitable or politically unacceptable, what will the big companies do?
Slavery in Biblical Perspective
- By Mike Scruggs
The Dangers of Uninformed Virtue-signaling
A couple years ago, researching an article, I ran across a Christian website where the author harshly condemned slavery as the most grievous evil imaginable and said that slavery was condemned throughout the Bible. This has been a popular American view since the end of the Civil War, but it is astonishingly misinformed and blatantly unbiblical considering numerous contradictory passages and verses in both the Old and New Testament.
The purpose of this article is not Civil War history, but it is necessary to know how our ideas about slavery have been influenced by the war and distorted by post-war propaganda. The most common American narrative of the Civil War is that it was only about slavery, but while that view has become almost obligatory in an era of woke political correctness, it is considerably misinformed. Campaigning for Abraham Lincoln on September 27, 1860, at a New York City auditorium, Thaddaeus Stevens, who became Chairman of the powerful U.S. House Ways and Means Committee from March 1861 to March 1865, told a huge audience that the two most important issues in the coming November election were preventing slavery from spreading to new states and raising the Tariff [by about 67%], but of the two, passing the Morrill Tariff was the most important. Neither Lincoln nor the 1860 Republican Platform called for abolishing slavery.
We Are Not Descended From Fearful Men And Women
- By W.H. Lamb
“Do the thing you fear, and the death of fear becomes certain.” - Paraphrased from Ralph Waldo Emerson
What does it mean to be “fearful”? What does it mean to be courageous? Let’s start with ‘fearful’ The dictionary defines it as: feeling afraid, showing fear or anxiety, apprehension, suggesting a state of mind, implying a premonition of evil or danger.
The dictionary defines courageous as: not deterred by danger or pain; being brave; facing negative situations resolutely, despite fear.
End American Gerontocracy
- By Josh Hammer
President Joe Biden's viscerally jarring fall on Thursday in Colorado Springs, while on stage dispensing diplomas to new U.S. Air Force Academy graduates, underscores a terrifying reality: The octogenarian denizen of 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, palpably in the throes of debilitating mental and physical senescence, is not well. The sight of the commander-in-chief physically falling in front of a graduating Air Force Academy class, no less, is outright depressing to active-duty servicemen and telegraphs national weakness to America's many adversaries abroad.
Lunar Recession and the Age of the Earth Part 2
- By Charles Creager, Jr.
In part one we discussed the basics of lunar recession including the most basic backwards projections. In this part we will look at three more realistic backwards projections that is based on the measured slowing of the earth rotation. The difference here is a result of the actual shape and composition of the Tarth. The second backwards projection is based on a common mistake made when trying to refute lunar recession as an issue for an old earth, where they simply try to project the observed slowing rate of the Earth's rotation backwards. The third projection assumes a constant rotation rate for the earth.
Families Fight Back Against “Woke” Companies
- By Eagle Forum
It’s that time of the year again where the left tries to force companies and Americans to bow down to the so-called “Progress Pride” flag. Over the years, “Pride Month” has crept into our lives with companies flying the rainbow flag, posting a rainbow sticker in store windows, or changing their logos to rainbow-themed. Now it has taken an even more aggressive turn by stores selling products encouraging children to mutilate their bodies. Americans are disgusted with this agenda and are using their voices and money to fight back.
Ron DeSantis, Real Presidential Firepower
- By Star Parker
Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis has announced he's in.
He's running for president.
I caught DeSantis' remarks in Orlando at the annual meeting of the National Religious Broadcasters the day before he formally announced.
It was immediately clear that this is no ordinary politician.
It has been said that there are two types of people. Those who want to be someone and those who want to do something.

Its colorful Botanical gardens, Beaches, nightlife, colorful history, and glorious Downtown has drawn people to its city from around the country and around the world thru the years. But one Tourist attraction stands on its own as a Classic Charleston awesome Historic site and landmark---the beautiful Charleston Custom House. The People of Greenville County should make a trip down to Charleston to tour this Low-country edifice soon.
Under the Hood: Huge Taxpayer Tab, ESG Mandates in Scout Motors Deal
- By Rick Brundrett - The Nerve
Taxpayers in South Carolina likely will be on the hook for more than the $1 billion already dispersed to help a recently created Volkswagen company build its first electric vehicle plant near Columbia.
On top of that, under a state incentives agreement obtained by The Nerve, Virginia-based Scout Motors Inc., an independent company backed by the Volkswagen Group, which is headquartered in Germany, will have to comply with an ESG-related German law dealing with environmental, human rights and property rights issues.
The Nerve over the past year has reported extensively about the liberal environmental, social and governance movement in South Carolina. In a May 2022 story, for example, the president of an Anderson-based food company expressed concerns that two corporate customers, including a foreign-based company, which he asked The Nerve not to identify, were starting to pressure his business to comply with ESG-related practices.
Chick-fil-A Has Been Woke for Years. You Just Didn't Want to Believe It.
- By Suzanne Bowdey - The Washington Stand
When the rest of the world lost its corporate marbles, conservatives liked to think that there was one place that would never let them down: Chick-fil-A. As far as they were concerned, the churchgoers’ chicken of choice had been solidly built on Truett Cathy’s strong family values. While other CEOs took their brands in wildly liberal directions, Christians took solace in the fact that at least one franchise could stand against the mob. Now, with the news that Chick-fil-A is catering to the diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) crowd, customers feel deeply betrayed. But the reality is, the chicken empire’s capitulation started years before this.
Stop Scaring Our Kids to Death
- By Stephen Moore
As nearly every standardized test is showing, our schools are doing an abysmal job teaching kids how to read or do math. In some cases, kids graduating from high school can barely read their diplomas.
But the schools are wildly succeeding with their climate change indoctrination program. When I speak to kids on high school and college campuses and ask what the greatest threat is to their generation, the answer isn't China's aggression. It isn't a drug abuse problem that is becoming the leading killer of our children. It isn't the failed schools or the corrupt government or the more routine violations of freedom of speech. It isn't the $32 trillion national debt soon headed to $50 trillion. (I always remind the kids, I won't be paying for this Mount Everest-sized debt burden. YOU will.)

Anglican Church Attacked While Police Watch and Refuse to Act
- By Anglican Office for Government and International Affairs
IRVINGTON, N.J. -- What should have been a joyful Pentecost Sunday at Christ Anglican Church in Irvington New Jersey, turned into absolute mayhem as an outside group belonging to the Church of Nigeria (Anglican Communion) sawed off door locks and broke into the church to occupy the building and claim it as their own. The illegal conversion of the property was the result of an outrageous and unconstitutional ruling by New Jersey Superior Court Judge Jody Lee Alper. Judge Alper who was hearing a civil suit between two groups of individuals who used to attend the same parish but one side had been excluded from membership and attendance by order of its Bishop, the Rt. Rev. Ken Ross. Those excluded along with their attorney, Charles Chikezie intentionally misled the court by saying they had no idea who the bishop of the church and that the defendants wanted to attend church in the building owned by Christ Anglican Church but with their own pastor from Nigeria.

Life Legal Asks Supreme Court to Dismiss Planned Parenthood Lawsuit
- By Christian Newswire
NAPA, Calif. -- Life Legal today filed a petition for certiorari with the U.S. Supreme Court asking it to reverse a multi-million-dollar judgment against longtime pro-life activist Albin Rhomberg and the Center for Medical Progress.
As you may remember, in 2016 Planned Parenthood sued the Center for Medical Progress (CMP) and several individuals after CMP published a series of videos showing abortionists negotiating the sale of baby body parts. CMP also provided evidence that human body part brokers purchased tissue and organs of aborted babies from Planned Parenthood, which is a federal crime.
The lawsuit charged that CMP and those who assisted it in its investigation had violated RICO, the federal anti-racketeering statute.
Learning to Read Requires Phonics
- By Anne Schlafly
New York City Schools Chancellor David Banks just announced a mandatory new program to address the literacy crisis in his schools. What is this brand-new curriculum? None other than phonics! Phonics is a proven, reliable, and the best reading program, but was first rejected by educators in the 1950s. Finally, phonics is making a comeback in New York City schools. In Fall 2023, phonics will replace memorization in elementary schools. Chancellor Banks said, "We're all working really hard on the wrong track. My goal is to get us back on the right track." (Wall Street Journal, 5/10/2023)
The Culture War Has Moved to a New Phase
- By Neil Patel
Left-wing nutballs have had the upper hand in America's culture wars for a long time. They are hyperaggressive and focused on pushing America in a radical direction. They push their agenda on school boards, in local and national political venues, and on many corporations. To date, resistance has been isolated to a small number of dedicated conservative activists. Most Americans just want to get along whenever possible, not fight about sensitive social issues if they can help it and, most of all, not be mean to people. That's a laudable attitude in general, but when up against radical, ideologically driven opponents, oftentimes you have to push back. If you don't, they won't stop. As we have now seen, just trying to get along can end in pure insanity. That's precisely how we ended up with little kids being taught about super sensitive sexual topics at ages when they should be playing in sandboxes.
The American Republic and the American Empire
- By Mike Scruggs
The Empire Advances by Marginalizing the Truth
Lt. Gen. Vincent Stewart (1958-2023), Semper Fi!
The Constitutional American Republic is still strong, and many still stand strong in their faith, but a domestic secular drive to become an American Empire has become politically, economically, and culturally dominant and is straining every nerve to maintain its dominance. As usual, power tends to corrupt and creates false narratives to sustain its power. The American Empire is advancing by marginalizing fundamental reality and truth. This pertains to many aspects of American life and culture but also extends to a morally bent foreign policy.
Most Churchgoers Are Optimistic, Take Pride in Their Church: Poll
- By Ben Johnson - The Washington Stand
Although U.S. church attendance has fallen to historic lows, the faithful still congregating have found a new source of optimism and pride in America’s sanctuaries, a new poll finds.
Though fewer Americans darken a church door or believe in God, nearly all those who do say they believe their faith has a bright future and have few qualms identifying with their church in the public square. The left-leaning Public Religion Research Institute (PRRI) interviewed 5,872 people last April through August, asking them about their religious views and participation. The results, published May 16 in a study titled “Religion and Congregations in a Time of Social and Political Upheaval,” reported a mix of results that nearly all came out positive for those who stay in church.
“Imagine A Boot Stamping On A Human Face, Forever”
- By W.H. Lamb
“This is the direction the world is going in at the present time. In our world there will be no emotions, except fear, rage, triumph, and self abasement. The sex instinct will be eradicated…. There will be no loyalty except loyalty to the party. But always there will be the intoxication of power. Always at every moment there will be the thrill of victory, the sensation of trampling on an enemy who is helpless.
“If you want a picture of the future, imagine a boot stamping on a human face forever. The moral to be drawn from this dangerous nightmare situation is a simple one. DON’T LET IT HAPPEN! It depends on YOU.”
Eric Blair (1903-1950). Better known by his “pen name” of GEORGE ORWELL.

Confederate Names Removed from the Ranger Memorial
- By Press Release
Fort Benning’s Col. Colin Mahle proceeded with recommendations from the Congressionally-mandated Naming Commission to cover or remove certain names on the Ranger Memorial associated with the Confederacy, even though they served the United States honorably, retired Brig. Gen. Joseph Stringham, Chairman of the National Ranger Memorial Foundation, wrote in a letter on April 28. Not only did the [naming] commission dishonor the Rangers commemorated, but hiding the names denies free expression of those who contributed to the memorial . . .
Confederate names removed from the Ranger Memorial
Elizabeth Warren's renaming legislation has shredded the fabric of our country. Destroying the 109 year old Confederate Memorial in Arlington is next. Over 44% of our military has traditionally been recruited in the South. But to serve today, Southerners have to accept Warren's LIE that they have traitor blood flowing through their veins.
Withdraw U.S. from the WHO now!

"Unless the USA withdraws from the W.H.O., we will be bound by whatever a majority of its members agree upon, to the detriment of our national sovereignty and personal freedoms."
Help Save Us from the World Health Organization!
If you disliked the way you and our country were treated in response to the COVID pandemic, you are going to hate what those who perpetrated the mask, lockdown and vaccine mandates intend to do to us next. The World Health Organization (WHO), led by its Director-General Dr. Tedros Ghebreyesus, the Chinese Communist Party that controls them, and the Biden administration are negotiating agreements that would allow Tedros to dictate public health policy in the United States and globally.
Target: Stop “Targeting” Our Kids
- By Eagle Forum
State and National Groups Unite in Call for Target to Remove/Move Divisive “Trans Pride” Products
Group Sending Letter and Petition to Chip and Joanna Gaines Seeking Support to Protect Childhood Innocence
Eagle Forum, joined by a diverse group of national, state, and local activists, is calling on all Americans to make their voices heard by participating in the Stop “Targeting” Our Kids Align Act. This petition drive, directed to Target corporate leadership, peacefully requests that Target move or remove divisive “Trans Pride” items currently sold by the company. The items at issue are those marketed for babies, toddlers, and teens and the “women’s” bathing suits that are made with “tuck-friendly construction” and “extra crotch coverage” to accommodate male genitalia. The petition also asks Target to reconsider donating to GLSEN, a radical organization that advocates that schools withhold information from parents regarding their children’s gender dysphoria and any so-called ‘accommodations’ being provided by the school.
The Case for Ron DeSantis
- By Josh Hammer
Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis' much-anticipated 2024 presidential campaign is finally here. DeSantis is, by any empirical metric or otherwise reasonable estimation, the only person with a viable chance of defeating former President Donald Trump for the Republican presidential nomination. What follows is a straightforward affirmative case for DeSantis' candidacy, written from the perspective of someone who moved to the Sunshine State during the COVID-19 pandemic due in no small part to his courage, independent judgment and dynamic leadership during that most woeful chapter of recent American history.
The EPA is Gaslighting Americans
- By Eagle Forum
The EPA’s Gas Elimination Agenda
Biden’s Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is on a warpath to eliminate the gas industry. They have slowly begun heavily restricting items that we use on a daily basis. Two of those that are currently in the left’s crosshairs are our gas stoves and cars. With Republicans working hard to right those wrongs in Congress, they may have found a strange bedfellow who has made millions cooking on gas stoves.
