California Public School Teacher Fired for Her Religious Beliefs Settles with California School District

MURRIETA, Calif. -- Last night, the Jurupa Unified School District Board approved a settlement agreement between Jessica Tapia and the Jurupa Unified School District to settle her lawsuit for $360,000. Last year, Advocates for Faith and Freedom filed a lawsuit challenging Jurupa Unified School District in the Central District of California after the wrongful termination of public school teacher Jessica Tapia for her religious beliefs. Her termination came after the school district refused to accommodate Jessica's religious beliefs, which conflicted with the school district's harmful policies, such as referring to students by their preferred pronouns and withholding information from parents regarding their child's gender identity.

The Dangers of Marijuana Reclassification Are Not Hazy

“What is your opinion about legalizing marijuana?” This is the most frequent question I received over the last 25 years when I participated in over 200 domestic issues for high school students from across the country. At these debates, the questions are student-generated and the “pot question” was by far the perennial favorite, invoking snickers from the other teenagers in the room.  A common refrain was “Alcohol is dangerous, and we allow that, so why not pot?” The kids think they are being edgy, but they are only revealing the masterful smoke and mirrors distortions peddled by Big Marijuana.

Biden Administration Weaponizes and Politicizes the Department of Justice Against Peaceful Pro-Life Activities

Details
By Christian Newswire
Published: 16 May 2024

WASHINGTON -- Nine pro-life activists are facing up to 11 years in federal prison for a peaceful sit-in at a late-term abortion center in Washington, D.C. in 2020.

The “Garland 9” will face sentencing in the Washington, D.C. federal court between May 14 and 31. They have been in jail since September of 2023.

The Christian Defense Coalition calls upon Congress to hold hearings on this misuse of power by President Biden and the Department of Justice against the pro-life community.

What makes the actions of the Biden Administration even more troubling is the double standard of justice Palestinian protesters are receiving after their arrests in comparison to the Garland 9.

City of Yes for Carbon Neutrality

In New York City mayor Eric Adams says, “Everything you need to know about the latest proposal in ‘City of Yes’” we get to see one of the latest schemes to capture property rights – via carbon neutrality. What is carbon neutrality? According to the European Parliament it “is reached when the same amount of CO2 is released into the atmosphere as is removed by various means, leaving a zero balance, also known as a zero-carbon footprint”. To understand that better, we had a carbon neutral world up until the 1800s when crude oil/fossil fuels were discovered. That brought about the advances in our lives – automobiles, gas and electric appliances, phones, computers – you name it. Green energy can never produce the equipment needed to supply these modern tools.

Abiogenesis is Untestable

Details
By Press Release
Published: 16 May 2024

If abiogenesis did occur on Earth, it can never be tested. It would be a one-of-a-kind event with no one present to observe and would not have occurred under conditions or on a scale that would leave a fossil record. Furthermore, even if all of the evidence proved beyond even an irrational doubt that abiogenesis did not occur on Earth, it could just be moved to Mars or some other planet. Once again, the ultimate rescue of abiogenesis would be that happened a long time ago in a galaxy far far away. All this shows that abiogenesis is an untestable hypothesis and therefore does not qualify as science.

Fix Social Security With Ownership, Not More Government

By Star Parker
Published: 16 May 2024

The trustees for Social Security have just issued their annual report. And, as we have learned annually over recent years, the system cannot meet its obligations.

According to this latest report, the Social Security system will not be able to meet its obligations to retirees by 2035. In 2035, the system will be adequate to meet just 83% of its obligations.

This is supposedly good news because the projected shortfall occurs one year later than reported last year.

Arab States Readying Peacekeeping Force In Gaza

JERUSALEM – Israel came under pressure Wednesday to accept an independent Palestinian state as Arab countries plan to join a U.S.-led peacekeeping force in wartorn Gaza, Western and Arab officials confirmed Wednesday.

Egypt, the United Arab Emirates (UAE), and Morocco are considering the American initiative for a multinational force to control the Gaza Strip, Worthy News learned.

However, an Israeli declaration that they are “accepting a two-solution” is a key condition for them to join the “multinational” army, according to diplomats familiar with the discussions.

Arab states also demand an American declaration and action “to express support for a Palestinian state” and that the United States will lead the Arab force in Gaza.

First Monday Candidates Forum Greenville SC

While nearly 200 Greenville Republican leaders and activists lunched on fried chicken, mashed potatoes and broccoli last Monday at the Poinsett Club, a plethora of GOP candidates for various political offices in the Greenville area made their elevator pitch as to why they should be elected.

The occasion was the monthly meeting of the First Monday Republican Club. Deb Sofield runs the club as a well-oiled machine when it comes to starting each monthly program on time and keeping things moving.

Each candidate present was given up to three minutes to put their best foot forward and to try to convince the audience members to vote for them rather than the other guy – or gal. Some read their remarks and others spoke off the cuff.

Target Retreats from LGBT Merch after Year Long Profit Bloodbath

This year’s Pride Month is shaping up to be a much more humble affair at Target. In an extremely gratifying twist, the company that bragged their transgender line is “great for our brand” has changed its mind after a year-long stock market bruising. It’s the latest evidence that the wildfire of consumer activism is not only spreading but forcing the kind of change most people never thought possible.

If you asked conservatives two years ago, stopping the woke at major brands would’ve been a victory. But reversing the woke? That’s a tectonic shift in the power structure of Big Business. For once, CEOs — who for years have thrown their radical agenda in the face of shoppers — are feeling enough pain in their profit margins to stop and ask if appeasing the far-Left is worth it.

SC Freedom Caucus Defeats Health Czar!

Major Wins on Final Day of Session

Earlier this year, the Uniparty establishment made multiple attempts to force through a “Health Czar” Bill under the guise of restructuring and consolidating public health departments in SC. Today, the SC Freedom Caucus defeated the effort!

You may remember a few months ago we wrote:

“Rather than standing up to the WHO, banning vaccine mandates, or ensuring that the legislature will have a voice to stop lockdowns and runaway ‘health emergencies,’ the General Assembly is focused on passing legislation recommended by the Boston Consulting Group, a partner of the World Economic Forum and the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation.”

Our SC Freedom Caucus had numerous objections to this unprecedented bill including the unknown cost to taxpayers, dangerous powers placed in the hands of a sole unelected bureaucrat, and failure to actually “consolidate” or cut any government whatsoever.

America Is Under Siege The Alamo
William Barret Travis (1809-1836). Commander of the "Texian" Forces at the Battle of the Alamo in San Antonio for thirteen days - Feb.  1836 to March 6, 1836.

WE ARE FACING OUR OWN “LINE IN THE DIRT” RIGHT NOW!  WHAT WILL YOU DO?

We all know the facts and/or the legend of “The Siege of the Alamo” in San Antonio, Texas in late February and early March of 1836.  A pitifully small number of Texans (or “Texians”) and American volunteers (about 180 men, plus a few women and children) determined to defend an old mission church called the “Alamo” that they had previously captured from its small Mexican garrison, fortified it, and eventually resisted a vastly superior enemy force—the Mexican Army of at least 1400 soldiers, under General Antonio Lopez de Santa Anna (1794-1876) thereby enshrining the term: “13 days of glory”, into our American lexicon.  The Commander of the Alamo’s defenders, young Lt. Colonel William Travis (1809-1836), age 26, realizing that his situation by early March, 1836 was virtually hopeless, vowed to defend the Alamo to the end.  Gathering the remaining defenders on Saturday, March 5, 1836, Travis, according to the “Legend of the Alamo”, gave a short talk to his ragged and battle-weary men.

House GOP Caucus Senior Advisor Helps Dark Money Attack Conservatives

Saturday afternoon while many of the South Carolina Freedom Caucus members were door knocking and connecting with constituents on issues that matter to them, a bombshell story broke concerning the inaccurately named, special interest-funded, dark money group, “Palmetto Truth Project.”

As you probably remember, Palmetto Truth Project was established in March of last year after South Carolina Freedom Caucus members pushed the woke Left and RINO establishment to their breaking point through conservative amendments and exposure of the RINOs’ own voting records. The establishment was especially incensed that we targeted DEI funding and wasteful pork in the 2023 budget. Days later, PTP began a relentless attack on all SCFC members because we were standing up and fighting for conservative values - and winning!

How to Save the USA

Published: 14 May 2024
America is now so deeply divided that only one thing can save us from a perilous breakup or from some inescapable, Hotel-California, Orwellian tyranny.  Prayers and exhortations for national unity and election integrity, however fervent and numerous, will prove futile apart from intelligent and prompt action by the states.  As the ultimate authorities and sovereigns that created the federal Union and government in the first place -- including the Congress, Presidency and Supreme Court -- the states need to reform by amendment our tattered and teetering constitutional structure. 
 
The problem is:  American society has simply outgrown its original constitutional framework.  A fledgling east-coast federation of 13 new and sovereign states with only 213,000 people in 1790 is now a vast, continental-plus, centralized Leviathan of 50 servile "county" states with over 331 million souls.  Our only chance of healing our divisions and preserving our UNION WITH LIBERTY is to adapt the principle of checks and balances at the very heart of our Constitution -- known more technically as the principle of concurrent majority -- to our present-day social realities.

In 1989, when talk show pioneer Rush Limbaugh had already been on syndicated radio for a year in Upstate South Carolina, local talk radio host Mike Gallagher was added to the local lineup from 10 a.m. to noon as the lead-in to the Maharushi.

After gaining popularity on the original WORD (WFBC) local station, “The Mike Gallagher Show” became nationally syndicated. Gallagher was promoted to New York City, and the Greenville local station became one of his first affiliates.

After many years, the company that Gallagher worked for acquired the former WMUU radio station in Greenville, which was previously owned by Bob Jones University.

In light of recent news that Democrat mega-donors are bankrolling pro-Palestine protests and encampments on college and university campuses, one expert is warning that this is a case of the Left manipulating students.

On Monday night’s episode of “Washington Watch,” Family Research Council President Tony Perkins commented of the ongoing protests, “They kind of all look the same. They have all these indicators of a well-funded, highly coordinated effort.” He continued, “Well, recent reporting has revealed that student groups organizing the protests have received financial backing from many of the largest funders of Democratic election campaigns, including top donors of President Joe Biden’s reelection bid.”
