Oratory for a Time Such as This
- By W.H. Lamb
(With Apologies to William Shakespeare)
(Reference: “JULIUS CAESAR” by William Shakespeare, Act. 111, Scene 11).
PATRIOTS, AMERICANS, COUNTRYMEN, LISTEN TO ME.
I COME TO EXPOSE THE TRUTH, NOT TO BURY IT.
THE EVIL THAT LIBERALS DO LIVES AFTER THEM,
WHEN IT SHOULD BE BURIED WITH THEIR BONES.
SO SHOULD IT BE WITH ALL COLLECTIVISTS.
THE IGNOBLE BRUTES HAVE TOLD YOU THAT AMERICANISTS ARE DANGEROUS;
THIS IS NOT SO, IT IS A GRIEVOUS FAULT,
AND GRIEVOUSLY HAVE WE BEEN MALIGNED.
SALTY SEZ – Don’t Believe It
- By Ray Simmons
You know, a couple of years ago I had hope the American people would awake to what had been going on for several decades and work to bring the nation back in line. A lot of them did. They went out and voted for President Trump for a second term. When that vote was stolen by a bunch of elected and appointed officials they didn’t know what to do. With Trump gone from the scene they had no leadership. We saw people sworn to defend and protect our Constitution from all attacks, domestic and foreign, become its attackers. Whoopee number 1! We saw Justices chosen to ensure its protection failing to take any action. Whoopee number 2! We saw a frustrated Military without the leadership or the gumption to move against the enemy. Whoopee number 3! Now we are watching as a nation commits suicide and we are wondering why.
Santee Cooper, Ports Authority Board Members Paid Thousands for Part-time Gig
- By Rick Brundrett - The Nerve
Unlike panels overseeing other state agencies, the governing boards of the state-created Ports Authority and utility Santee Cooper are paid thousands of dollars annually for their part-time jobs, records show.
Most members of the Ports Authority Board of Directors made $11,700 last year, while members of the Santee Cooper Board of Directors received $10,384.20 in compensation and another $2,000 in a category labeled “travel, insurance and meeting reimbursement,” according to their annual income-disclosure reports, known as statements of economic interests (SEIs), filed with the State Ethics Commission.

Dems Pave a Gavel Road to Court-Packing
- By Tony Perkins - Family Research Council
Now we've heard it all. Democrats, who were already the butt of jokes for calling childcare "infrastructure," have done us one better. According to House liberals, court-packing is too! In a tweet, Congressman Mondaire Jones, a New York liberal declared: "Supreme Court expansion is infrastructure." Like a lot of people, Senator Marsha Blackburn (R-Tenn.) couldn't believe their eyes. "You just can't make this stuff up," she shook her head. And unfortunately, Democrats aren't. They're on the march to expand the court -- no matter what they call it.
Just Because It's Said by Joe Doesn't Make It So
- By Veronique de Rugy
While President Joe Biden's administration doesn't seem to need an excuse to spend money, two recurring arguments for his gigantic $2.3 trillion infrastructure proposal are that our roads and bridges are "crumbling" and that modernization would generate economic growth and jobs -- hence its name, the American Jobs Plan. But none of this clever marketing makes any of these claims true.
Biden's Fabled Bipartisanship
- By David Limbaugh
I haven't seen much humor in life during the past year or so, but one thing that has been uproariously hilarious lately is the orchestrated media narrative that President Joe Biden is bipartisan and conciliatory. Please give me a moment to catch my breath.
I think it was Karl Rove who recently observed that the media's effective definition of bipartisan legislation is not that significant numbers of both parties' lawmakers support a bill but that some poll somewhere shows that a large percentage of Americans of each party support some vaguely described initiative, even if zero Republican legislators support the actual bill. You can frame a poll question to get the result you want.
D.C. Statehood A Play to Maintain Senate
- By Eagle Forum
It appears the Democrat majority in Congress will stop at almost nothing to ensure their majority remains a majority. Last Fall it was packing the Supreme Court and today, it is legislation to make D.C. (and other territories) a state.
With a population of about seven hundred thousand, it may seem logical that D.C. should become a state with representation in both the lower and upper chambers. In fact, it simply is not Constitutional to make it a state. Article I, Section 8, Clause 17 enables Congress to govern the District of Colombia. Our Founders envisioned the location of the Federal government to be an independent entity outside of another state. In doing so, the Founders sought to prevent D.C. from pressures and influence by one state government rather than another.
Senators Keep Tight Control Over County Magistrates
- By Rick Brundrett - The Nerve
If there’s one power that S.C. senators likely will never relinquish – at least willingly – it’s their control over the selection of the state’s more than 300 county magistrates.
Magistrates, who handle traffic tickets and other relatively minor criminal and civil cases, know how much authority senators can exercise even after their judicial terms expire. Under a loophole in state law known as “holdover status,” magistrates can continue to serve indefinitely past their official terms – and feel more pressure to cater to their local senators.
Biden Bids Farewell to a 'Forever War'
- By Pat Buchanan
"It is time to end the forever war."
So said President Joe Biden in his announcement that, as of Sept. 11, the 20th anniversary of the attacks on the World Trade Center and Pentagon, all U.S. troops will be gone from Afghanistan.
The longest war in our history, which cost 2,400 dead, 20,000 wounded and $2 trillion, is ending -- but only for Americans, not Afghans.
Secretary of State Antony Blinken assured our NATO allies in Brussels that we are all leaving with our mission accomplished:
Paycheck Fairness Hurts Women’s Flexibility and Work-life Balance

The Democrats of the 117th Congress are again attempting the passage of another “equality” bill. This time, it’s the Paycheck Fairness Act or H.R. 7.
According to the House Committee on Education and Labor, the H.R. 7 attempts to end gender-based wage discrimination by:
Arkansas General Assembly Passes HCR 1007 Recognizing January 22 as the Day of Tears
- By Christian Newswire
LITTLE ROCK, Ark. --The Arkansas General Assembly passed House Concurrent Resolution 1007 recognizing January 22 as the Day of Tears. This resolution calls for private citizens in Arkansas to lower their flags on January 22, in honor and remembrance of the over 61 million innocents who have lost their lives to abortion.

Tell Your Senators to Stop the For the People Act
- By Richard Harris, Executive Director, Truth & Liberty Coalition
Liberals in Congress are trying to ram through a bill that will destroy our ability to have fair elections. The so-called For the People Act (S 1, 2021) is probably one of the most dangerous pieces of legislation in American history.
Instead of the "For the People Act," it should be called the "One Party Takeover of American Government Act," or, as Sen. Ted Cruz put it, "The Corrupt Politicians Act."

America's Media-Poisoned Well
- By Michelle Malkin
It's springtime in America. In halcyon days, we'd ring in the new season with fresh starts and fragrant flowers. But in 2021, the arrival of April now ushers in yet another cycle of destructive urban riots -- stoked and coddled by toxic journalists downplaying left-wing violence and demonizing all who dare call out the ruinous, race-based chaos for what it is.
On Monday, as vandals and looters tore apart Minneapolis again in the wake of a cop-involved shooting, a suburban police chief tried to report on the dangerous conditions outside his station.
Gov. Hutchinson's Distortion of President Reagan
- By Star Parker
Republican Gov. Asa Hutchinson of Arkansas raised ire from conservatives for vetoing legislation passed by the Arkansas state legislature that would have banned "gender-affirming" medical treatment for transgender minors.
This includes treatment such as hormone therapy, puberty blockers and surgery associated with gender identity.
The legislature then overrode Hutchinson's veto, making Arkansas the nation's first state to ban these procedures.
Long-Term Declines in Church Giving and Membership can be Addressed
- By empty tomb, inc.
CHAMPAIGN, Ill. -- Recent survey data from Gallup points to a decline in church membership in the U.S. For the first time in over eight decades of surveys, Gallup found church members were less than half of the U.S. population.
Similar trends show up in numbers reported by a broad set of church denominations and collected by empty tomb, inc.'s The State of Church Giving series.
Arizona, Georgia Double-Team on Woke Sports
- By Tony Perkins - Family Research Council
It'll be months before Major League Baseball knows how much its decision to move Atlanta's All-Star Game cost them financially. Fortunately, Americans won't have to wait nearly that long to understand how much it hurt the MLB politically. Thanks to Governor Doug Ducey (R-Ariz.), they already know. If the goal of MLB Commissioner Rob Manfred and his liberal pals was to scare other states into submission, Arizona's new law makes it quite clear: he's already failed.
Putin & Xi Have Red Lines, Too
- By Pat Buchanan
What are Vladimir Putin and Xi Jinping up to?
In recent days, Russian tanks, artillery, armor, trucks and troops have been moving by road and rail ever closer to Ukraine, and Moscow is said to be repositioning its 56th Guards Air Assault Brigade in Crimea.
Military sources in Kyiv estimate there are now 85,000 Russian troops between six and 25 miles from Ukraine's northern and eastern borders.

Remembering Ernie Pyle (A Man of Whom Most Have Never Heard)
- By W.H. Lamb
As I recall, April 12, 1945 was a mild and sunny day in the west side suburb of Cleveland, Ohio where I lived in those long-gone days. World War 11 (that’s “2” for those of you who are Roman numeral “impaired”) was still raging across the Pacific region of the world, even while it appeared to have almost ended in Europe. I was a typical almost nine-year-old in those wonderful times, outside most of the day (except during the coldest days of winter), playing baseball almost every day during the summer, riding my bike, and interacting with my neighborhood “gang” of six or eight preteen guys just like me. If you’ve ever seen that great film, “A Christmas Story”, you’ll know exactly how much of my childhood was spent. Exactly! The author of that book could have been a member of my “gang”. (And yes, I DID drink “Ovaltine”, I DID listen to ‘Little Orphan Annie” on the radio, and I DID have one of her “decoder rings”.)
China’s Plan to Defeat America
- By Mike Scruggs
Ominous Threats to Peace and Freedom
One of the best books for understanding the Chinese Communist Party’s plan to replace the United States as the world’s greatest superpower is Michael Pillsbury’s 2014 book, The Hundred-Year Marathon: China’s Secret Strategy to Replace America as the Global Superpower. Its title alone reveals the two most important characteristics of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) in military, economic, and diplomatic strategy: long-term patience and deception. Bill Gertz’s 2019 book, Deceiving the Sky: Inside Communist China’s Drive for Global Supremacy, reveals the CCP’s astonishing deception, lies, and theft in advancing its technological means for becoming the dominant world power. Stephen W. Mosher’s 2017 book, Bully of Asia: Why China’s Dream is the New Threat to World Order, is absolutely frightening. Its title reminds me of a former Air Force POW in North Vietnam, who gave me his very succinct description of Communism: “They are just bullies.” Larry Arnn, President of Hillsdale College, described Mosher’s book very appropriately in a brief review, explaining “why China’s Dream is the world’s nightmare.”Keep America Free!
- By Frank Raddish - Founder/Director Capitol Hill Independent Baptist Ministries
Joe Biden, during his Easter address, was too cowardly to acknowledge the resurrection of Jesus Christ, because he was afraid to offend the false religions in this country. He has on more than one occasion defended the wicked religion of Islam. Sad to say, we have two radical Muslim reprobates serving in Congress that the Democrats protect at every turn. These two women should have already been charged by the Ethics Committee for their racist, anti-Semitic remarks and removed from their committee assignments. President Donald Trump, on the other hand highly recognized the Lord Jesus both on Resurrection Day and Christmas. He returned America to honoring the God of heaven and earth as our forefathers once did.
Biden’s Bridges to Nowhere
- By Eagle Forum
Recently, President Biden rolled out his American Jobs Plan, also known as his infrastructure plan. However, there was one glaring thing missing: infrastructure. Instead, he focused on policies that allow the federal government to encroach on our lives, depress the economy, and make the job-creators pay for it.
