Federalism Hits Its Peak during Virus
- By Tony Perkins - Family Research Council
The coronavirus didn't come with a set of instructions. There's no contingency plan, no precedent, no lessons learned from past administrations. For once, history can't teach us how to cope. It can only remind us who we are. And maybe, in a crisis like this one, that's the most important thing of all.

During Pandemic, Safe Haven Should Be Used Instead of Abortion
- By The Justice Foundation
SAN ANTONIO, Texas -- Allan Parker, The Justice Foundation President, announces TJF is offering free legal information to any pregnant woman in America who feels that she cannot care for the "infant life" (U.S. Supreme Court-Gonzales v. Carhart, 2007) in her womb at this time and needs an abortion. TJF can assist her with understanding her state's Safe Haven laws by which she can, without cost, release her baby to the community. She can simply release the baby to a hospital, fire station, or other designated place within a specified time after birth. If she is low-income, the state can also provide prenatal care and delivery of the child at no cost to the woman.
Forbidden History

The Redeemer State Governments and the End of Reconstruction
Part 6 of 7 in a Series on Reconstruction 1865-1877
In 1867, because unscrupulous members of the Union League and Freedmen’s Bureau were reported to have been inciting newly freed slaves to use violence, former Confederate Lieutenant General John Brown Gordon told a group of blacks:
"He who teaches you to regard our interest as conflicting, is not a friend to your race. Our interests are identical. If the white man is oppressed, his colored neighbor must suffer with him. They are embarked together; the one cannot swim if the other sinks."
The following from a Union League Catechism outlines the divisive political nature of that organization and Radical Republican objectives:
"I Know That My Redeemer Liveth” An Appreciation of One of God’s Gifts
- By W.H. Lamb
“Music begins where the possibilities of language end.” So said one of my favorite classical music symphonists, the great Finnish master composer and violinist, Jean Sibelius (1865-1957). He was correct in his observation, because as William Congreve so cogently reminded mankind way back in 1697, “Music has charms to sooth a savage breast”.
Benefits vs. Costs and COVID-19
- By Walter Williams
One of the first lessons in an economics class is everything has a cost. That's in stark contrast to lessons in the political arena where politicians talk about free stuff. In our personal lives, decision-making involves weighing costs against benefits. Businessmen make the same calculation if they want to stay in business. It's an entirely different story for politicians running the government where any benefit, however minuscule, is often deemed to be worth any cost, however large.
Open Letter to Rep. Timmons and 535 ...

This is a 'open letter' to Congressman William Timmons and the (mostly) 535 congressional 'boobs' (particularly GOP) who appear significantly more interested in making PSA announcements and not challenging Pres.

A Look At Coronavirus
- By Ray Simmons
We find ourselves in a situation worse than we can remember. Perhaps others have been in similar situations, but never in recorded history has the entire world found itself so situated. All humanity now finds itself facing a deadly virus for which we are told there is no available cure. To protect ourselves we have had to enter a self-imposed quarantine which is shutting down our work-related financial system. If we work we might die — if we do not work we might starve! We are in that old “rock and hard-place” situation.

Closed SC Businesses in Covid’s Wake: Protecting Public Health?
- By Rick Brundrett - The Nerve
Having customers in his Columbia glass art shop posed no public threat, if you ask Tom Lockart of One Eared Cow Glass.
Yet after Gov. Henry McMaster put the S.C. Department of Commerce in charge of deciding what businesses are allowed to stay open or which must close when “clarification” requests are made, Lockart’s store made the official “non-essential” list.

Either We Heal as a Country or We Are Going To Crumble
- By Neil Patel
For the business community and those at the very top of America's economic ladder, China has been a godsend. They've made and saved billions and billions of dollars by outsourcing American manufacturing to China and offering goods and services to China's booming consumer market. For many top American companies, growth in China has been seen as essential for success. This is why so many American companies and upper-income American citizens are so thoroughly uninterested in hearing about Chinese atrocities. Remember last year when an NBA general manager made the mistake of tweeting something sympathetic to the freedom (and pro-American) protestors in Hong Kong? He was absolutely crushed by his league and the players, who all knew that China was where their future riches were to be made.
Letter to the Coronavirus Task Force
- By Ray Simmons
Mike Pence : CORONAVIRUS TASK FORCE
Washington DC
I recall hearing someone, perhaps a Task Force member, comment that this virus may be sensitive to ultraviolet rays in sunlight and that might slow its progress in the Summertime. Has anyone tested the virus’ reaction under created ultraviolet light? Could ultraviolet lighting in restaurants perhaps reduce the chance of contagion? Just a question!
Also, the “experts” insistence on discounting an “apparent cure” — Hydroxychloroquine — and pushing some kind of vaccine that might take 18 months or longer to create and test, appears to lack common sense, and indicates a preference desired by Big Pharm. Sorry, but that’s how it looks to me.
Sincerely and thankfully yours,
Raymond Simmons
POTUS Ear Open to Black and Brown Plight
- By Alveda King
In a recent announcement President Donald John Trump expressed concern and promises hope for America's Black community. He is praying for and listen to Black and Brown voices.
Why are Blacks at high risk from COVID-19? A threefold reason; intentional targeting from the population control community, dependency on human systems rather than God, and lack of knowledge.
Will COVID-19 Retire the World's Policeman?

For declaring in March that the U.S. economy might be reopened by Easter, President Donald Trump was roundly mocked.
Yet, it appears his political instincts were correct. He was more in tune with his country than were his critics.
Media Prefer Hating Trump to Helping America
- By David Limbaugh
The liberal media are urging Joe Biden to form a shadow government to upstage President Donald Trump's crisis response effort, which illustrates its consuming partisanship -- and its insufficient attention to the health and welfare of the American people.
MSNBC host Stephanie Ruhle floated the idea during an interview with former Barack Obama staffer Jim Messina. Referring to Trump's COVID-19 daily press briefing, Ruhle asked, "Should Joe Biden be counterprogramming that? Should he be creating his own shadow government, shadow Cabinet, shadow SWAT team, and getting up there at a podium every night, saying, 'Here's the crisis we're in. Here's what we need to do to address this'?"
