Military Poll a Morale Victory for Trump
- Details
- By Tony Perkins - Family Research Council
Under Barack Obama, the biggest threat to our military might have been the policies of the man in charge of it. From the toppling of "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" to the rollout of open transgenderism, most service members couldn't wait to get back to the business of warfighting. In 2016, they got their wish. After eight long years, the new commander-in-chief went to work, rescuing our troops from the radical grip of the Obama years. "I want a very, very strong military," Donald Trump said. And he is proving it.

Scalping Fauxhontus

- By Burt Prelutsky
One can only imagine what Sen. Elizabeth Warren was thinking when she announced with great fanfare that she was 1/1024th Cherokee, but her high hopes were quickly dashed. As, very likely, was her shot at the 2020 presidential nomination.
It’s said that the American public has a short memory, but it’s highly unlikely that people are going to forget the jokes and cartoons that have greeted her grand announcement.
Among the outpouring of well-deserved ridicule, we had the line delivered by Ben Shapiro that “Today we learned from the media that having a great-great-great-great grandparent who was a Native American makes you an Indian, but two X chromosomes doesn’t make you a female.”

Bradlee, Censorship Sounds a Little Conspiratorial! It Sure Does
- Details
- By Bradley Dean
“Conspiracy theory is the ultimate refuge of the apathetic. If you cannot change your own country, it must be that some greater force controls the world and there is nothing that you can do about it. This is exactly what conspirators would have you believe. The truth of the matter is, you do not want to make the effort to deal with it."
As we all know, the big tech companies are crossing major constitutional lines when it come to the censoring of Christian conservative and patriotic websites. As if to suggest that they can lawfully shutdown lawful speech because it is an offense to their subversive positions, they cannot.

A Victory for Free Speech
- Details
- By Judge Andrew Napolitano
The litigation brought by Stormy Daniels against Donald Trump has had its day of reckoning. The adult-film star who sued the president for defamation not only lost a portion of her lawsuit but was ordered to pay the president's legal bills. All this was a resounding victory for the freedom of speech.
After the right to life, protected by the Fifth and 14th amendments, and the right to be left alone, protected by the Fourth, the freedom of speech, protected by the First, is our most cherished. James Madison, who drafted the Bill of Rights, was careful to refer to speech as "the" freedom of speech so as to underscore the Framers' unambiguous belief that free speech is pre-political. Stated differently, it existed before the government did and thus did not come from the government. As it does not originate in the government, Madison and company believed it originates in our humanity.

The Tipping Point: New Website Calling Pro-Lifers to Outfund Abortion
- Details
- By Christian Newswire
MIDDLETON, Wis. -- The Tipping Point is a new website intended to make it easy for ideological pro-lifers to donate to the whole pro-life movement in one place.
When founder Colin O'Keefe heard God's call and committed his life to the pro-life cause, he reflected on why he had never donated to pro-life despite being a faithful churchgoer, a tither, and even a victim of legalized abortion with the abortion of his brother. His answer is that it's hard to donate because there are so many pro-life charities: "I believe millions of Americans already have a desire, a spiritual need, to give in support of life, and it's just been hard to do that because all the existing pro-life nonprofits are competing with each other for your ten dollars. That's discouraging."
THE SALTY SAILOR and the FIREMAN

- By Dan Richardson
Read this once, pause for a minute or two to think honestly about it, then read it again. I can find no fault with it...
The views this mother has about Donald Trump are much like many other people. Her characterization of Trump as the "Salty Sailor" or as “The Fireman” paint an excellent picture!! She has written many great books about her son and family.This is a Comment from KAREN VAUGHN, Mother of Aaron Vaughn, Navy Seal.
Sometimes God uses the no-nonsense, salty sailor to get the job done. Appreciating what the man is doing doesn't mean we worship the salty sailor or even desire to be like the salty sailor. It doesn't even mean God admires the salty sailor. Maybe He just knows he's necessary for such a time as this.
What The Election Means To Your Medical Care
- Details
- By Dr. Jane M. Orient
People are marching with “Health Care Voter” signs, and this is generally believed to be one of the most important issues in the 2018 midterm elections. Republicans who got elected on the promise to repeal ObamaCare, and reneged, may now get unelected. Voters who supported them are dissatisfied, and Democrats demand still more government involvement in medicine.
On Twitter, #HealthCareVoter posts warned that the confirmation of Brett Kavanaugh to the U.S. Supreme Court would “rip health care away from people with pre-existing conditions.” This illustrates several profound misunderstandings.
