A Pro-Growth Framework for Responsible Spending, Surplus-Driven Tax Relief, and Long-Term Prosperity
Introduction
South Carolina enters Fiscal Year 2027 with strong economic momentum but growing fiscal risk. Payroll employment expanded by 3.1 percent year over year, while the unemployment rate edged up to 4.3 percent in August 2025, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. The labor market remains among the most dynamic in the Southeast, supported by migration inflows and diversified job growth in professional services, health care, and hospitality, as detailed in the Richmond Fed’s South Carolina Economic Snapshot.

Canadian Supreme Court Approves the Killing of Canadian Ostriches
The Canadian government has been working to kill 800 healthy ostriches for about a year now. The owners were fighting to keep them alive as they have been raising them for years and are a great benefit to science (they are not injured or killed by the tests) and they were healthy – not diseased, not a danger to any other birds (or stupid people).
Want Lower Prices? More 'Affordability'? Move to a Red State.
- Details
- By Stephen Moore
The buzzword of the month is "affordability," and based on the election results from New York, New Jersey and Virginia, voters think that's declining. Democrats think they've found a winning issue here to win back the hearts and minds of voters after the Trump sweep last year.
It's true that people are angry about prices. Steaks and hamburgers are more expensive than ever. So are coffee and rents and medical care. Many Americans are about to see a 10%-20% increase in their health care premiums starting in January.
South Africa Probes Mysterious’ Arrival Of Palestinians On Chartered Flight
- Details
- By Stefan J. Bos - Chief International Correspondent Worthy News
JOHANNESBURG/JERUSALEM (Worthy News) – South Africa has launched an investigation after 153 Palestinians unexpectedly arrived on a chartered flight at Johannesburg’s O.R. Tambo International Airport last week, prompting questions over who organized the journey and whether any fleeing Hamas fighters or officials may have been among them.
The passengers — traveling via Kenya — were held Thursday for roughly 12 hours after border officials found they lacked departure stamps, clear travel histories, return tickets, or confirmed accommodation in South Africa, officials said.
Many had reportedly not applied for asylum, despite stating they had fled the Gaza Strip.
Christian Leaders Rally on US Capitol Steps to Thank President Trump for Nigeria Action; Demand Congress Act on 'Existential Threat' to Christians
- Details
- By Christian Defense Coalition
WASHINGTON — A powerful coalition of American Christian leaders will hold a prayer vigil and news conference on the steps of the U.S. Capitol this Friday, November 14, 2025, at 11:00 AM, to offer gratitude for President Donald J. Trump’s designation of Nigeria as a Country of Particular Concern (CPC) and to urge Congress to immediately prioritize legislative measures to defend persecuted Christians.
The group will gather on the southeastern steps of the United States Capitol, which is the House of Representative’s side.
The group will also be displaying a large banner which says; “Protect The Persecuted Church.”
The Shutdown’s Over. Now What?
- Details
- By Suzanne Bowdey - The Washington Stand
The House got a lot of good-natured ribbing from the press this week when they touched down in D.C. for the first time in six weeks. “Remember,” Jake Sherman and John Bresnahan joked, “the big white building with the giant dome is the Capitol. That’s where the House floor is. We know, it’s been a while.” After a month and a half, members might’ve needed a map to their offices before heading across the street to vote. But despite the long (and ultimately pointless) hiatus, even Democrats reluctantly agreed to flip the sign on Congress to “Open.”
"I Beat Hitler!"

In a few days, Piri Katz will celebrate her 98th birthday. That alone is a milestone worth celebrating. However, the fact that she was once known only as 20,444, makes this birthday especially gratifying.
Piri was the seventh of 11 children born into an orthodox Jewish family who lived in then Czechoslovakia’s Carpathian Mountains in a small town called Tibiva. Her parents owned two flour mills, and their property was filled with horses, geese, chickens, and all kinds of fruit orchards.
The simple life in Tibiva was farming, school, religious studies (for the boys), observing the Sabbath and other Jewish holidays where family and friends would gather at the local synagogue.

How Should Republicans Move Forward?
- Details
- By Star Parker
Reading commentary about the recent elections, I thought of an observation of Nobel prize-winning physicist Richard Feynman.
Feynman said, "The first principle is that you must not fool yourself, and you are the easiest person to fool."
That is, we must always be disciplined in looking at things as they are and not bend to the temptation to see them as we wish them to be.
After the recent Democratic election sweep, we are hearing that there is unhappiness out there.
Confused Republicans vs Determined Democrats
- Details
- By Tom DeWeese - American Policy Center
To truly understand the threats we are facing across the nation and how to combat them, first we must understand the who, what, when, where, and why behind the policies that are creating the national divide. What are the Democrats pushing into place, and what are Republicans doing to combat it?
The Democrats and their Leftist supporters are operating from an agenda. It is concise, detailed, all encompassing, and completely documented. They know exactly how to enforce it and will not back away no matter the defeats they experience while pushing it forward. They only become more focused and determined to assure such defeats will not happen again as the battle cry calls to keep the agenda moving forward.
After Trump: Will America Make a Hard Left?
- Details
- By Joseph M. Bianchi
With New York City electing an openly avowed socialist, and Democratic sweeps of the New Jesey and Virginia elections, is it possible the rest of the country will follow suit in the 2028 Presidential election?
This is an important, and perhaps an obvious question that must be asked.
To say that the country is politically divided is like asking if the Pope is Catholic; Charlie Kirk is assassinated and there seems to be a revival of conservativism on college campuses along with evangelical Christianity, whilst “No Kings” rallies and anti-ICE protests heat up.
The question will be is the shift to the Left a blip on the radar screen coming from states that are already “Blue,” or an actual movement, a more tectonic shift, that portends a national change?
Paris Mountain Rezoning Strategy Meeting

This past week, I joined residents from the Paris Mountain Country Club community for a well-attended Rezoning Strategy Meeting at Reedy River Baptist Church. The turnout was great, neighbors packed the fellowship hall to engage in a productive conversation about growth, development pressures, and ways to preserve the unique character of the Paris Mountain area. Outside of community that showed up, we also had a great official turnout, including former councilman Joe Dill, State Representative Mike Burns, and Planning Commissioners Deborah Manning and Ken Matesevac.
Creationist cosmology - Possible Ways It Can Be Tested
- Details
- By Charles Creager, Jr.
One of the important factors about this possible cosmology is the fact that it can be tested. Besides being based on Dr. Russell Humphreys' white hole cosmology, what this specific model has going for it is that it is fine-tuned to explain a specific set of observations. To get the proper results, there needs to be a gravity well created by a significant amount of matter whose only possible Visible indicator would be the cosmic background radiation.

Orban’s Message to Trump
Pokrovsk and Ukrainian Black Hawk Helicopter Missions
On November 7, President Donald Trump met with Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban. Prime Minister Orban is concerned about access to gas and oil pipelines that have been critical to the Hungarian economy. Orban also believes that Ukraine cannot win the war against Russia, except by some sort of extremely improbable “miracle.” Prolonging the war has almost destroyed Ukraine and is causing serious economic problems in the European Union. Moreover, Hungary, Slovakia, and now the Czech Republic do not support the NATO war against Russia. Austria is beginning to lean that way. Alexander Mercouris recently termed this growing opposition to the Ukraine War the “Hapsburg Coalition.” In addition, the new President of Poland, Karol Nowrocki, wants no further involvement. In the first round of recent Romanian elections on December 6, 2024, Calin Georgescu a conservative independent opposing Romanian participation in the Ukraine War was the front runner with 23 percent, but the Romanian Constitutional Court overturned the election, alleging Russian interference.
Revisiting the Great Work of Medical Missionary Dr. Anne Livingston in Haiti

- By Dr. Anne Livingston
Introductory Comments By W. H. Lamb
One of the rewards of working with a group of Patriots, as I have been doing for many years, both as a commentary writer for The Times Examiner and within my own personal writings from time to time, is that I’ve had an opportunity to meet and/or communicate with many others all around our nation, and in a few other countries, whose concerns over upholding the work of our fellow Christians, and whose cares about the attacks on our constitutional liberties, mirror my own endeavors.
I first met Dr. Anne Livingston almost ten years ago, when I was working for a local grocery store where she shopped when she was home on a furlough from her medical missionary duties in Haiti. We both had a mutual friend who would tell me, from time to time, about the “adventures” of a missionary/doctor close friend of hers, and in God’s perfect timing I eventually got a chance to meet this dedicated servant of our Savior, a physician/surgeon/missionary to Haiti: Dr. Anne Livingston (now retired), during one of her occasional visits back to Greenville.
Contact Your Senators NOW: Support Prohibition on Production of Delta-8
- Details
- By Eagle Forum
The cannabis industry has been a scourge on communities across the nation. Even when states have tight restrictions, the industry has created loopholes that allow it to continue reaping huge profits. One such loophole involves harvesting hemp. We are all familiar with clothing and jewelry made from hemp. Clearly, these products are not made from the intoxicating form of the plant. However, the plant itself does contain high levels of THC which can be made into a synthetic drug called Delta-8.Eagle Forum supports legislation to close the loophole to end intoxicating hemp farming. Last night, the Senate voted on an appropriations package that includes critical language finally banning the sale of hemp-derived THC products like Delta-8. However, Senator Rand Paul (R-KY) is trying to force a vote on his amendment to strike the Delta-8 language from the bill. That vote is almost certain to come today.

Real American Heroes Who Are Almost Forgotten Today - Part 4

- By W.H. Lamb
In the first three parts of this series, we’ve been following the travails and the courage of a small band of Northern Cheyenne people, as they bravely decided to leave the harsh and soul-destroying conditions of the reservation in Indian Territory (now Oklahoma) to which they had been forcibly relocated by the Bureau of Indian Affairs and the U.S. Army, and begin a 1500 mile trek back to their homeland in the territories of Wyoming and Montana. Having fought several skirmishes and one major battle with the army, by the end of October, 1878, Chief Dull Knife had decided to separate from Chief Little Wolf and take about 150 of his people, who no longer wanted to try to evade the U.S. Army, and head for Fort Robinson in the northwestern corner of Nebraska, which had been established in 1874 as a base of operations against the Northern Cheyenne and the Lakota Sioux people, where they trusted that the military and the Indian Bureau would provide sufficient supplies to keep them alive.
Real American Heroes Who Are Almost Forgotten Today - Part 3

- By W.H. Lamb
Back in 1964, a film titled Cheyenne Autumn was released. Directed by my favorite old-time film director, the late, and legendary, John Ford, it starred Richard Widmark and Carol Baker, and was an effort, only partly accurate historically, to tell the story that I’ve been trying to tell in Parts 1 & 2 of this series—of the noble attempt on the part of the Northern Cheyenne People to leave their inhospitable Southern reservation in modern-day Oklahoma (then called Indian Territory), into which they had been forced by the Bureau of Indian Affairs and the U.S. Army, and return to their homelands in Wyoming and Montana Territory (referred to in history as the Exodus of the Northern Cheyenne). That these people even had to return to a homeland from which they had been ripped by the forces of “Manifest Destiny” was a dark stain on American history—that some of them actually completed their return was inspiring, a worthy example of the triumph of the human spirit, wherein the desire for freedom can never be quenched. (Let’s pray that it will endure forever!)
Understanding Your Property Tax Bill
- Details
- By Benton Blount - Chairman of Greenville County Council
Why Some Residents May See Higher Increases, and How Council is Working to Protect Taxpayers
Property tax bills are officially going out, and many residents are beginning to notice differences in the amount they owe compared to last year. On average, property taxes across Greenville County are increasing between 4% and 12%, depending on where each property is located.
It’s important to note that Greenville County Council did not increase county property taxes in the last budget and I believe that will continue to trend this year. In fact, during last year’s budget, Council voted to lower the County’s property tax rate by 1.5 mills, a reduction that will amount to more than $4 million in tax relief for residents. That decision came directly from a clear message we heard from citizens: these times are tough enough without an increased tax burden.
States Go Head-to-Head to Redraw House Seats before Next Year's Competitive Midterms

- By Suzanne Bowdey - The Washington Stand
If there’s a breakthrough on the horizon of the government shutdown, you wouldn’t know it from House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries’s (D-N.Y.) whereabouts. The Democratic leader left D.C. — and its partisan messaging wars — for a Monday jaunt in Illinois, where he hoped to make a dent in another nationwide clash: redistricting. The jaunt, which underscored the urgency both parties feel to redraw their congressional maps, is the latest push in a see-saw battle to shake up the House’s slim majority.
Creationist Cosmology - Eliminates the Need for Dark Energy
- Details
- By Charles Creager, Jr.
What is dark energy?
Dark energy is essentially a filler concept invented for the sole purpose of explaining observations that, within the context of the Big Bang Cosmology, are interpreted as an accelerating expansion of the universe. The notion exists and was invented for the sole purpose of making the Big Bang cosmology fit observations.
The Big Bang cosmology naturally tended to predict one of two fates for the universe. The first was that it would continue to expand, getting slower and slower, but never actually stopping. If it were more massive than a critical point, the expansion would come to a stop, and the universe would start to collapse. The hope of this one was that it would result in a new Big Bang, eliminating the idea of a beginning.

Some very rough days are a coming, and you may have a moment or two wondering what to do, why am I going through such? Losing your direction as to how you thought your life’s decisions were heading along the right path may come into play. Being stuck in a job or in a marriage or in a career and wondering how you got there and any hope of getting out, may also come into play. Feeling like a “lost number” among the masses and would anybody care if I didn’t exist anymore may also be fleeting thoughts.

Local churches bring ‘Heat & Hope’ as Ukrainians shiver into fourth winter of war
LOVES PARK, Ill. — Ukraine faces a winter of “frozen peril” — a looming humanitarian emergency marked by power blackouts and bone-chilling temperatures as people struggle to stay warm.
For the fourth consecutive year, winter itself is being “weaponized” to cause suffering on a massive scale, with drone attacks crippling power plants and gas facilities, leaving millions without electricity or heat.
“You can imagine what that means for families already displaced and hungry,” said Eric Mock, vice president of ministry operations for Slavic Gospel Association (SGA). “No light, no heat, no way to cook food or keep warm.”

Terry Newsome, a dad of two, was horrified when he discovered a pornographic book in the school library. When he went to the School Board, he was told the book was acceptable because it was for an “underserved group,” a.k.a. the LGBTQ+ community. Terry’s advocacy landed him on the Southern Poverty Law Center’s blacklist, with organizations like Moms for Liberty and Turning Point USA. Terry joins the podcast today to share what’s really going on behind the scenes in government schools.

Big news from Argentina is the electoral victory of the Advancing Liberty party of President Javier Milei.

Big government power has been a tradition in Argentina. Now Milei is turning things around.
Economic growth is picking up from stagnation, and inflation is down from over 200% to a little over 30%.
