SALTY SEZ - Passports
- By Ray Simmons
There’s a subject being talked about that most folk have heard mentioned but don’t really understand how it works. That topic is generally called “vaccination passport”. But the vaccination part is very misleading and is designed to have us believe the vaccination is all we have to be concerned about. Actually this passport system was in the works long before Covid-19 appeared on the scene. Essentially it is designed to give those in control digital information about everything you do, your medical history, your travel history, what kind of groceries you buy, the movies you watch, etc. Covid-19 just managed to “come along” and provide the excuse needed to frighten us into letting them stick needles in our arms.
Hobby Lobby Threatened - Communism in Action
- By David Green, Founder & CEO of Hobby Lobby Stores, Inc.
When my family and I started our company 40years ago, we were working out of a garage on a $600 bank loan, assemblingminiature picture frames. Our first retail store wasn't much bigger than mostpeople's living rooms, but we had faith that we would succeed if we lived andworked according to God's word. From there, Hobby Lobby has become one of thenation's largest arts and crafts retailers, with more than 500 locations in 41states. Our children grew up into fine business leaders, and today we run HobbyLobby together, as a family.

She was born around the time of the Holocaust and New Deal, and seen a lot of things go down and still here to talk about them. She was born at the end of the Presidency of FDR, when Eleanor Roosevelt was first lady.
China's New Three-Child Policy -- Womb Police Still in Business
- By Women's Rights Without Frontiers
WASHINGTON -- In an article entitled, "China Relaxes Family Planning Policy to Allow Couples to Have Three Children," a Chinese Communist Party-affiliated news outlet announced curtly today:
China officially further relaxed its family planning policy, allowing couples to give birth to three children. The move aims to improve China's population structure and actively respond to the country's aging problem. This is a developing story. We will update it later.
Reggie Littlejohn, Founder and President of Women's Rights Without Frontiers, issued the following Statement:
China's move from a two-child policy to a three-child policy is nothing to celebrate. China should abolish all coercive population control. It is not the business of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) to "allow" couples, or single women, to have children of whatever number.
Please Do Not Deny That Systemic Racism Exists
- By Alveda King
What is systemic racism? Systemic racism occurs within a government that uses money from people of influence to elect government officials who will promote their agendas.
For example, Margaret Sanger, a renowned racist and eugenicist, helped to promote an agenda of genocide which included birth control to what she considered to be the less needed communities of people on the planet. In her own words, Sanger said that colored people were like "human weeds" who needed to be exterminated.
Expanding the Child Tax Credit Ignores Historical Precedent
- By Veronique de Rugy
Marketing is everything in politics. It explains why a tax credit that benefits 90% of American families with kids -- some of them with income higher than $400,000 -- is marketed as an anti-poverty measure. But in politics, that marketing is often an illusion that hides the hard consequences of a preferred policy.
With the latest COVID-19 relief package, Congress expanded the child tax credit, increasing the maximum amount a taxpayer could claim from $2,000 per child to $3,000 for those aged 6 to 17 and to $3,600 under age 6. The expanded part of the credit begins to decrease as income rises above $75,000 for individuals, $112,500 for heads of household and $150,000 for married couples. The $2,000 credit starts phasing out when income reaches $200,000 for individuals and $400,000 for married couples.

- By Christian Newswire
BATON ROUGE, La. -- Senate Concurrent Resolution 38 (SCR 38), designating January 22, 2022 as the Day of Tears in Louisiana, has passed both the Senate and the House, and has been sent to the Secretary of State.
Sponsored by Senator and President Pro Tempore, Beth Mizell, (R-Franklinton), SCR 38 encourages citizens of Louisiana to lower their flags in remembrance of those who have been lost to abortion. Louisiana joins Alabama and Arkansas in adopting the Day of Tears.
SCOTUS to Hear Case that Could Break Roe
- By Eagle Forum
Last week, the Supreme Court gave the pro-life movement reason to hope! They will hear a case involving a Mississippi pro-life law that bans abortion at 15 weeks gestation next term.
The law was signed into Mississippi in 2018 by former Governor Phil Bryant. The law provides some exemptions for women seeking an abortion, including for medical emergencies or in the event there is a severe fetal abnormality. Unlike many laws restricting abortion, this one does not contain an exemption for rape or incest.
A Hearty Summer Reading Recommendation: 'Armstrong Rides Again!'
- By David Limbaugh
It's been a rough year, to say the least, with a global pandemic, the election of the most dangerous, leftist presidential administration ever, and a media and institutional elite in this country who are essentially Marxist functionaries.
Summer and beach reading might provide some needed relief. But before you pack your bags and head to the sun and the sand, here's a recommendation for a fun book to take along.
Does Our Diversity Portend Disintegration?
- By Pat Buchanan
After nine people were shot to death by a public transit worker, who then killed himself in San Jose, the latest mass murder in America, California Governor Gavin Newsom spoke for many on the eve of this Memorial Day weekend.
"What the hell is going on in the United States of America? What the hell is wrong with us?"
Good question. Indeed, it seems that the country is coming apart.
SCDOT Says It Will Fix Nearly 1,000 More Miles of Bad Roads. More Empty Promises?
- By Rick Brundrett - The Nerve
Motorists likely will feel plenty of bumps this Memorial Day weekend as they drive over South Carolina’s seemingly endless pothole-riddled roads.
Since the state gas-tax-hike law took effect nearly four years ago, The Nerve has repeatedly pointed out the S.C. Department of Transportation’s relatively slow pace of completing paving projects while sitting on massive reserves generated with the extra revenues.
Now, the agency is proposing a “Pavement Improvement Program” for fiscal 2021-22, which calls for an additional 683 repaving or reconstruction projects statewide totaling about 977 miles. Last week, the DOT Commission approved a 21-day public comment period on the proposal.

Kellogg's Spoon-feeds Activism with Woke Cereal
- By Tony Perkins - Family Research Council
Kellogg's hasn't been sugar-coating its agenda for years. But its latest venture -- a "create-your-own-pronoun" cereal for kids -- is bowling over parents. "Boxes are for cereal, not people," the company insists about its new Together with Pride rainbow edition that donates $3 from every box to an extreme LGBT group, GLAAD, who's out to recruit and confuse your children. Of course, anyone who's been online or walked the aisles of a grocery store knows that some companies will do anything to pander to the radical Left. But this June, these brands are on a collision course with a group of fired-up American shoppers who might just eat them for breakfast.
NGU Honors Brashier Legacy at Dedication Ceremony
- By LaVerne Howell - NGU
Honoring a legacy of partnership support that spanned six decades, North Greenville University dedicated the Dr. T. Walter and Christine Brashier Conference Room at NGU’s Tim Brashier Campus May 20.
Dr. T. Walter Brashier, Sr., died March 24, 2021, at the age of 86. His widow, Christine Brashier, was present for the dedication event in Greer. The Tim Brashier Campus is named for the Brashiers’ late son.
The elder Brashier had battled several health issues in recent years but continued engaging with evangelical ministry and the higher education causes he had supported through transformational gifts throughout his career. The successful real estate developer was NGU’s greatest individual donor, with his philanthropic investments to the university nearing $10 million since an initial 1972 gift to fund construction of apartment units on the Tigerville campus.
Hunger Grips COVID-Ravaged India; GFA World Responds
- By Christian Newswire
On World Hunger Day, May 28, 'deep silence' engulfs India; pandemic-hit families fear starvation is next
WILLS POINT, Texas -- India's devastating "second wave" of COVID-19 is overshadowing another deadly tsunami of suffering -- rampant hunger.
Global humanitarian agency GFA World (www.gfa.org) reports growing desperation across India as it supports efforts to feed those facing starvation amid the pandemic's continuing onslaught. The Texas-based organization has helped feed hundreds of thousands since the pandemic began.
For a Century, the Globalist Council on Foreign Relations has been the “Power Behind the Throne” in U.S. Politics. This Tradition Has Continued Under the Biden Administration.
- By William F. Jasper - The New American
2021 is a big year for the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR), an organization that often is heralded as the most influential think tank in America, if not the entire world. Prominent on the Council’s website (cfr.org) is its centennial page, “Celebrating A Century,” a selfcongratulatory promo of the organization’s accomplishments over the past hundred years. The promotional features an impressive cavalcade of pictorials, videos, and articles showcasing the Council’s worldly influence and power, as demonstrated by the hundreds of presidents, prime ministers, princes, potentates, politicians, kings, diplomats, and dictators — including massmurderers — who have graced the organization’s meetings, and/or have written for its famed journal Foreign Affairs.
Shut Down the Jan. 6 Gulag
- By Michelle Malkin
If you listen to Democrats and anti-Trump liberal Republicans like Sen. Mitt Romney and Rep. Liz Cheney, you'd think that nothing was being done about the breach of the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6. Never mind the FBI's all-out hunts and raids across 44 states. Never mind the continued detention of an unknown number of pro-Trump supporters. Never mind the more than 2,000 criminal charges brought by federal prosecutors against nearly 500 Americans arrested over the past four months.
Unequally Woked: One Teacher's Stand to Stop the Left
- By Tony Perkins - Family Research Council
"I've been hearing about this stuff happening in California and New York and all over the place. I didn't realize it was happening in my own backyard." And in Saint Tammany Parish, Louisiana, neither did parents. It took a young, courageous Spanish teacher to stand up and say, "Not in my school district" to open the eyes of Americans all across the country. Now, a month later, his viral video is sparking a nationwide movement to expose the Left's biggest lie: it's not happening here. It is, Jonathan Koeppel insists. People just don't know it.
George Floyd Anniversary Should Stir Prayers for Healing
- By Alveda King
Today, we remember the catastrophic death of George Floyd. Racism is once again in the forefront of America. This anniversary of the high profile murder of an American Black man stirs our emotions yet again. Hopefully we can find it in our hearts to seek healing from our broken hearts by seeking God's help.
As the family of George Floyd gathered in Minneapolis over the weekend, expecting to meet with President Biden in the White House today to mark the one-year anniversary of Floyd's murder at the hands of former police officer Derek Chauvin, I have been praying for eyes to become opened. We need God's help to break through the hate and pain.
A Test for the Nation in Virginia Governor's Race
- By Star Parker
Americans may not have to wait until 2022 to sense the potential for Republicans to move the nation back in a conservative direction.
The race for governor in Virginia, one of just two major elections taking place this year, could be a barometer of national sentiment.
Republicans have just nominated a dream-team ticket, combining talent and achievement with all the diversity demands of today's political marketplace.
Merkel Flips Off Biden's Protest -- to Buy Putin's Gas
- By Pat Buchanan
When the U.S. created NATO, a primary purpose of the alliance was to serve as a western wall to defend Germany against the 400,000 Russian troops on the eastern side of the Elbe River.
Seventy years later, Germany has decided to double its dependence on Vladimir Putin's Russia for the natural gas needed to run the German economy, despite the opposition of her great protector, the USA.
The Biden administration decided to waive sanctions on Matthias Warnig, the ally of Putin whose company, Nord Stream 2 AG, is laying the pipeline beneath the Baltic Sea from Russia to Germany that is now 95% complete.

The Real Jim Crow
- By Mike Scruggs
How Northern Jim Crow Laws Moved South
“Jim Crow” was the stage name of New York actor Thomas D. Rice (1808-1860), who made a career of minstrel performances in blackface and thus popularized that form of entertainment. The name “Jim Crow” came from a popular 1832 song, “Jump Jim Crow,” written and sung by Rice and became a common term referring to African-Americans. Later it became a nick name for legislation restricting the rights of African-Americans. Blackface is not necessarily demeaning. Rice may have based his character on slave folk tales about a clever trickster. Al Jolson (1886-1950), a Russian Jewish immigrant, and the most popular and beloved American entertainer beginning with the movie The Jazz Singer in 1927 and lasting for many decades, was said to be the “king of blackface.” Jolson’s personal feelings and many of his songs were certainly sympathetic to African-Americans. What most people do not know is that Jim Crow laws first originated in Northern States. Northern Jim Crow Laws were the model for Southern States following the ruin, corruption, and oppression of Reconstruction. As author C. Vann Woodward has stated, “Jim Crow has had a strange career.”
Feds Giving SC More Covid Money – Without Clear Spending Instructions
- By Rick Brundrett - The Nerve
Local governments in South Carolina are expected to collectively receive hundreds of millions more in federal COVID-19 relief funding, though what exactly that money can be spent on is unclear.
The U.S. Department of Treasury last week adopted an “interim final rule” on the American Rescue Plan (ARP) funding. But local government spokespersons told The Nerve this week their municipalities haven’t yet received the funds or specific guidance on how the money can be used, though the law authorizing the funding is more than two months old.
Wise Men Still Seek
- By W.H. Lamb
WISE MEN SEEKING JESUS, a poem by James T. East (1860-1937)
“Wise men seeking Jesus traveled from afar,
Guided in their journey by a wondrous star.
But if we desire Him, He is close at hand,
For our native country is our holy land.
Prayerful souls may find Him by our quiet lakes,
Meet Him on our hillsides when the dawning breaks.
In our fertile wheat fields where the sheaves are bound,
In our busy markets Jesus may be found.
NGU Earns Excellence in Giving’s Transparency Certification
- By LaVerne Howell - NGU

According to Excellence in Giving, the firm “recognizes Transparency when charities share more data about governance, finances, strategy, and impact than the IRS requires.” The certificate was presented to NGU after the private Christian university provided 175 data points about operations and performance for donors to review before making an informed giving decision.
SALTY SEZ - What’s Next?
- By Ray Simmons
Everywhere I look these days I see problems on top of problems but no real solutions being offered. I look at an unelected government doing everything in its power to lead our country away from the Founders’ Constitution and the unalienable rights contained therein. The few honest men still in that government seem powerless to act. They speak to efforts being made to better things for the 2022 election but are doing nothing to correct the electoral process that gave us the unelected government we now have. We are still caught up in a man-generated pandemic and its highly questionable vaccines, which in the long run may prove more deadly than the virus itself.
Leftist Racial Agitation Damages and Divides America
- By David Limbaugh
Just when you think racial agitators can't get more outrageous and ridiculous, they do. We see fruits of this evil obsession every single day.
Throughout the pandemic, the media preached that historical racism in the United States disproportionately impacted African Americans. Hollywood bombards us with race-shaming on show after show, using fictional characters to lecture us on the pervasiveness of white supremacy, stirring racial resentment and division in the name of healing.
Did the GOP Just Dodge a Bullet?
- By Pat Buchanan
When he took the floor of the Senate to reject the Democrats' Jan. 6 Commission, Mitch McConnell may have salvaged his party's chances to recapture the House in 2022.
For that commission, being spun as a "bipartisan" effort to learn what "really happened" in the Capitol that fateful day, is a Democratic scheme to have the left's version of events on Jan. 6 enshrined as the official history of the United States.
And what is the left's version?
