Statements on California's Proposition 1
- By Christian Newswire
SACRAMENTO, Calif. -- "We are extremely disappointed and saddened that Proposition 1 has passed in California. Despite strong support for some limits on abortion, the majority of California voters chose death over life. We will continue to fight for those who cannot fight for themselves. It's not acceptable for California to become America's graveyard for the unborn." -- Karen England and Gina Gleason, Co-Directors for Stop Prop 1
On The Eve of Destruction
- By Kathleen Marquardt - American Policy Center
Part 1, From our Forefathers to our Four Fake Fathers
But you tell me ... Over and over and over again, my friend ... How you don’t believe ... We’re on the eve of destruction[1]
Today, we are under enormous pressures to replace our political, educational, and religious (social) structures that were set up to protect the individual, to educate our children with the necessary knowledge, and give them the ability to understand and contribute to the continuation of our way of a life of liberty. Yet this pressure toward a negative change has been on-going for decades. Today, we are seeing what seems to be the last “push”, the tipping point from freedom to Marxism – all in the desire for a one-world tyranny. What is quite obvious is that this is not from “the will of the people” but is being thrust upon us and secretly has been in the works for too long.

Election Day Takeaways
- By Eagle Forum
Tuesday’s Results Were About Issues, Not Individuals
This week, conservative Republicans were optimistic that the mid-term elections would bring sweeping changes in the U.S. House and Senate while Democrats were bracing themselves for the impact of losing control of Congress. We all hoped that issues like inflation, immigration, and parental rights would drive voters to the polls. Despite the less than stellar gains for conservatives, two underlying issues bubbled up that helped push Republicans toward victory: the abortion and transgender agendas.
Republicans Should Use Their Brains a Little When Picking Candidates
- By Neil Patel
The lessons from this election cycle are the same as the lessons from all election cycles: Good candidates matter, especially so for Republicans who are not playing on an even field. Conservatives can go with any competent candidate they like in deeply red states and districts. From my perspective, I'd like them to go with the most conservative candidate possible in those places. Politicians from deeply conservative places should challenge a system that's clearly in need of reform.
CRY FOR FREEDOM – Why cyborgs won’t save the world
- By David Sorensen
CRY FOR FREEDOM reveals the officially promoted agenda of globalist organizations to create a new species of "humanoids" or "cyborgs": humans that will be genetically engineered and technologically enhanced, to greatly increase their physical and mental abilities.
These cyborgs will become the new masters of this world, they say.
According to the World Economic Forum, the difference between these humanoids (created by the elites) and the original humans (created by God) will be similar to the difference between humans today and chimpanzees. There will come a separation between humanity (homo sapiens) and this new species (homo deus). "Deus" is Latin for "god". The reason they name this new species homo deus, is because they literally believe they will become gods.
Elon Musk Is Right. Divided Government Is Best
- By David Harsanyi
There are no saviors or miracles in democracy, only a grueling, soul-sucking, forever war of attrition. That is the enduring lesson of the 2022 midterms, as it is every election. And, though the results will be overinterpreted by pundits, and partisans will have all their priors confirmed, in the end, it is simply proof that American "democracy" is working.
Overall, it was a disappointing night for Republicans, no doubt, considering the high expectations and the president's low approval ratings. Though, as of this writing, the GOP looks like it might win the House and has a shot at the Senate, as well. It's no small thing. But let's not forget, we're all winners when D.C. is mired in gridlock; not only is it the most accurate representation of the national electorate's mood but it means the system is working.
Constitutional Amendments to Strengthen State Reserves Cruise to Passage
- By Rick Brundrett - The Nerve
S.C. voters in Tuesday’s general election easily approved constitutional amendments to increase the state’s two main “rainy-day” funds.
With all 46 counties reporting, the proposals to expand the General Reserve Fund (GRF) and Capital Reserve Fund (CRF) passed by about 62% of the vote, according to unofficial State Election Commission results. Of the more than 1.5 million total votes cast, at least 939,000 voters said “yes” to each amendment.
The South Carolina Policy Council – The Nerve’s parent organization – for months publicly supported passage of both amendments, partnering last week with Americans for Tax Reform, a national taxpayer advocacy group, in a series of statewide meetings with voters and the media.
Science Versus Scientism
- By Charles Creager, Jr.
Science and scientism are radically different things despite the similarity in their names. Science is a methodology for studying the natural world and how it works. Scientism on the other hand is a philosophical and metaphysical perspective on science. There are three men ways of defining scientism.
- It can be seen as an excessive belief in the power of scientific knowledge and methodology.
- It sees science as the only objective way of determining truth.
- It includes the unwarranted application of science to areas that do not lend themselves to scientific inquiry.
Goodbye Affirmative Action, Hello Individual Freedom and Dignity
- By Star Parker
The Supreme Court just heard arguments in the case Students for Fair Admissions v. Harvard and Students for Fair Admissions v. University of North Carolina.
It's about affirmative action -- universities using race and ethnicity in their admissions policies.
Students for Fair Admissions argues that both universities violate the U.S. Constitution in their discriminatory admissions policies. They discriminate against Asian Americans in favor of whites, Blacks and Hispanics and unlawfully discriminate to achieve diversity that could be achieved in a race-neutral fashion.

No Denial, Just Proof
- By Kat Stansell - American Policy Center
Forget 2020. We've Caught Them In The Act In 2022!
Recently Biden was propped up behind a podium to holler threats to “2020 election deniers”. It was laughable, pathetic even, as his own have been mewling and puking about stolen elections for the past six years.
My answer: FORGET 2020! The proof of our duly elected government being stolen in a successful Coup has been there for all to see since November 4 of that year. Only the most afflicted with TDS (Trump Derangement Syndrome), that viral mental condition apparently more potent than Covid for some, still think Biden is really our President. They may never recover, but I frankly don’t care. Self-inflicted wounds draw little sympathy from me.
Vote Pro-Life: 8 Things to Remember at the Ballot Box
- By Joy Stockbauer and Mary Szoch
The time has almost come — November 8 will mark the first Election Day in a post-Roe v. Wade America, where elected representatives are free to determine the protections that our nation will afford to babies in the womb. To create a culture of life in the United States where all humans receive their God-given rights, voters must use this opportunity to cast their ballot in favor of candidates and policies that will protect the unborn.
Here are eight reminders to consider as you prepare for Election Day:

Joe Biden Is the King of Debt and Deficits
- By Stephen Moore
Imagine someone close to you has a drinking problem. Night after night, he goes out to the bars on wild binges, chugging down 10 to 12 beers a night. But then, in a supreme effort to reform himself, the drunkard cuts his consumption down to a six-pack every night.
He starts boasting of his amazing self-control and good behavior.
That's analogous to President Joe Biden's tall tale that he's one of the greatest paragons of fiscal responsibility in modern times. Here's Biden on Oct. 21 discussing his budgetary record at a White House event.

Democrats, Not 'Democracy,' at Risk Today
- By Pat Buchanan
"Make no mistake -- democracy is on the ballot for us all."
So declaiming in his Union Station speech to the nation on the real stakes in the 2022 elections, President Joe Biden, who was immediately echoed by Barack Obama, painted himself and his party into a corner.
For if Trump Republicans carry the day Tuesday, Biden will have to declare, if there is any consistency left in him, a "defeat for democracy" and a victory for the party that he has said is steeped in "semi-fascism."

Essential Background of the Russia-Ukraine War
- By Mike Scruggs
The 2014 Maidan Revolution
According to Eric Zuesse, writing in Strategic Culture (September 5, 2016), in 2011, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton was tasked by President Obama to overthrow the democratically elected President of Ukraine, Viktor Yanukovych, and Syrian President Bashar-al-Assad in Syria by means of “color revolutions.” Color revolutions are opportunistic regime changes by “popular revolutions,” which are clandestinely planned, directed, and financed by CIA sources, often assisted by the British MI6 foreign intelligence services. The CIA Director at that time was John Brennan. John Kerry replaced Hillary Clinton as Secretary of State in February 2013. The objective of such color revolutions is supposedly to spread the rule of democratic government.
