Paul Ryan Blocks Bill to End Questionable Middle East Policy
- By GOP Presidential
House Speaker Paul Ryan on Wednesday pushed language through the House that will prevent lawmakers from taking up any resolution to end U.S. support for the war in Yemen this year.
The language was passed just as the Senate was set to start debate on a resolution that aims to end U.S. involvement in Yemen, a response to anger over Saudi Arabia’s involvement in the death of dissident Jamal Khashoggi.
Trump Derails the Marrakech Express
- By John & Andy Schlafly
A new attempt to impose globalism unfolds in Marrakech, Morocco, under the guise of helping migrants. Most of the 193 countries in the United Nations convened there in order to create new international law to require every participating country to accept vast hordes of foreign migrants, and be subjected to this new form of globalism.
Any other president, Republican or Democrat, would probably welcome and join this undermining of national sovereignty. But in another reminder of how great Trump is, he leads the way in denouncing this virulent strain of globalism.
If Necessary, Shut Down the Government to Get the Wall
- By Erick Erickson
It is way past time to get a real commitment
It is way past time to get a real commitment for a wall. I do not care how many Americans support or oppose the wall. The President made it a central plank of his platform, Republicans have campaigned in favor of it and pretended repeatedly to fund it, and I think it is a visible symbol of our resolve to both secure our borders and stop these ridiculous caravans that keep traveling north.
Adam and Eve: Genetic Science Confirms Bible Again (Amen)
- By Bryan Fischer - AFA
The Bible and its account of origins is treated with utter contempt by cultural elites, those who look down their noses at the rubes and hayseeds (like me) who place great confidence in the Book.
Well, the elites better hope their peers don’t get their hands on the report about the latest in genetic science. The reason: genetic scientists are telling us now that there is powerful and virtually irrefutable scientific evidence that every human being on earth has descended from a single pair of parents. The Bible, of course, goes science one better, and even gives us the names of our original ancestors, “Adam” and “Eve.”
It Depends on What the Meaning of "Sex" is
- By Eagle Forum
The American College of Pediatricians is spearheading a petition supporting the Administration's recent clarification that "sex" denotes biological sex and not gender identity. The Obama administration had previously expanded the definition of sex in Title IX to include “gender”. The petition is a strong, well-documented statement necessary to protect the integrity of American culture as well as confused young people. It is linked below. Please sign it and circulate it to your networks ASAP. It needs many more signatures to send a strong message to the Justice, HHS and Education Departments.
Duncan Releases Statement on the Farm Bill
- By US Rep. Jeff Duncan's Office
Washington, D.C. – Today, Congressman Jeff Duncan (SC-03) released the following statement on the Agriculture and Nutrition Act of 2018, also known as the Farm Bill:
“At a time when the national unemployment rate is at a fifty year low, historic tax cuts are in place, and there are more job openings than job seekers, it’s inexcusable to not address broken and costly welfare programs in our country. Unfortunately, Congress abandoned this task and expanded the welfare state in the Farm Bill conference report.

- By Rick Brundrett - The Nerve
As of the end of October, nearly $361 million in collected gas-tax-hike revenues had not been spent – 16 months after the law authorizing the increases went into effect, recently released records show.
The $360.9 million balance represented about 45 percent of the $802.2 million in “project commitments” identified by the state Department of Transportation – an online list that grows monthly though it doesn’t give specifics on the work to be done. The unspent funds grew by more than 6 percent from the end of September, records show.
An Ethics Lesson for USA Today's 'Queer' Bullies
- By Michelle Malkin
This week, I did something that USA Today's executive leadership apparently hadn't done lately: I read the newspaper's "principles of ethical conduct for newsrooms."
It's pretty highfalutin. The media manifesto of virtue, posted online, applies to all employees "working with any news platform, including newspapers, websites, mobile devices, video, social media channels and live story events." Whether writing online or covering breaking developments, USA Today's journalists are supposedly committed to:

Big Pay Hike Sought by S.C. Judges also Would Fatten their Retirement Wallets
- By Rick Brundrett - The Nerve
A little-known state law allows eligible judges in South Carolina to receive generous retirement pay for as much as a dozen years at the same time they’re collecting their regular six-figure salaries.
S.C. Supreme Court Chief Justice Donald Beatty, who heads the state Judicial Department, is now asking for a 33-percent pay hike next fiscal year for himself and other appellate and lower-court judges. His annual salary would go from $156,234 to $208,000 – what a U.S. District Court judge makes.

Dashing through the No: Explaining SCOTUS's Logic on Life
- By Tony Perkins
For a taxpayer-funded organization, Planned Parenthood has gotten away with a lot. So three years ago, when David Daleiden stumbled on the biggest scandal of the year -- the group's baby body parts ring -- states thought they finally had the proof they needed to cut those Medicaid contracts. Eleven tried, only for some to end up in courts that couldn't decide if they had that right. Yesterday, the Supreme Court had a chance to settle the issue. It passed.

WASHINGTON — Today, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the Department of the Army (Army) are proposing a clear, understandable, and implementable definition of “waters of the United States” that clarifies federal authority under the Clean Water Act.

The Russian (Soviet) Experience in Afghanistan
- By Mike Scruggs
Muslim Holy War against the Red Army - Part 2 of a Series
Once the Muslim imams and mullahs began preaching Jihad against the Russian infidels and the Mujahidin had some guerilla warfare successes, the People’s Democratic Army of Afghanistan (PDA) began to melt away. The invading Red Army could no longer count on effective local political and military support. On January 1, 1980, the PDA 15th Division revolted in Kandahar. Three battalions of the 11th PDA Division deserted when the Soviet 201st MRD (Mobile Rifle Division) rolled into Jalalabad. By mid-1980, the once 90,000-strong PDA had melted away by desertion, casualties, and switched loyalties to only 30,000 confused and largely ineffective troops.
Epidemics, Fear and Denial: How Every American Is Threatened
- By Dr. Jane Orient
This is the one hundredth anniversary of the great influenza pandemic of 1918. In his book The Great Influenza, John M. Barry described it as the deadliest plague in history. It killed more people in a year than the Black Death of the Middle Ages killed in a century.
The lack of a vaccine did not cause the flu. All epidemics start with an index case—which may or may not be identified. The great influenza may have begun in a patient in Kansas. The significance of the case was reportedly recognized by a country doctor, who was ignored. As the nation mobilized for World War I, and draftees from across the country were thrown together, illness spread and became much more virulent. Transport ships became “floating caskets.” Troop trains were “rolling coffins.” But Woodrow Wilson denied the existence or severity of the epidemic, and effective public health efforts were thwarted.
A Happy Christmas to You All
- By W.H. Lamb
A “happy Christmas?” What happened to “Merry Christmas”? Back in the halcyon days of our cultural innocence and our racial/gender/transgender/non-mulicultural/age/class/political/religious/ educational “insensitivities”, Americans thought nothing of wishing their friends and family a “Merry Christmas”. I still do so, and I refuse to capitulate to those liberal and progressive “moonbats” and their brain damaged, guano-producing flock in our midst who consider me to be hopelessly old fashioned, culturally elitist, set in my ways, and unwilling to change. To those accusations I proudly and without apology plead “guilty”. Period—end of discussion!
Acceptable Racism
- By Walter Williams
How appropriate would it be for a major publicly held American company to hire a person with a history of having publicly made the following statements and many others like them? (In the interest of brevity, I shall list only four.) "The world could get by just fine with zero black people." "It's kind of sick how much joy I get out of being cruel to old black men." "Dumbass f---ing black people marking up the internet with their opinions like dogs pissing on fire hydrants." "Are black people genetically predisposed to burn faster in the sun, thus logically only being fit to live underground like groveling bilious goblins?"
It’s the People, Not the Church
- By Ben Graydon
A friend asked me recently why it is, after all that church is (and is not, but claims to be) and has done to us, I would ever go back to one. My answer: Because it’s about the people, not the church.
A church has rules, and that’s partly of necessity. That’s the business part of it. (Church is, first of all, a business.) Turn the lights out when you leave, don’t leave the doors standing open in the winter, don’t jump on the pews, don’t carve on the piano, don’t (if it’s Baptist) give to Methodist causes, etc.
