Secretary Rollins Opens Next Step in the Roadless Rescission Rule
- Details
- By Robert Powell - American Policy Center

We are at a critical point right now re property rights across the entire United States, that is any state with a National Forest. Forty-one states plus Puerto Rico have at least one, and some states have numerous. So, a lot of people will be affected. Today, the urgency is on Oregon people’s interests, tomorrow will be more states.

While the current federal Administration is working to invigorate clean safe forest practices, with common sense practices, supporting true stewardship of the forests by opening up damaged forests. Our forests have been literal tinder boxes for years. This change would underpin healthy families, economic support of towns and schools, and ensure the safety of individuals and the forest denizens.

Backtrack or Excuses? Cracker Barrel Scraps Part of Its Controversial Rebrand
- Details
- By Sarah Holliday - The Washington Stand

Has Cracker Barrel caved to the pressure, or are its attempts to somewhat backpedal merely a superficial gesture to quell outrage?
The beloved American chain Cracker Barrel, known for its Southern comfort food and nostalgic Old Country Store charm since its founding in 1969, has ignited a firestorm with its recent rebranding efforts. The company’s “new creative campaign” aimed to modernize the brand “for the future,” but the changes have sparked widespread backlash, plunging Cracker Barrel into a cultural and financial maelstrom. The only rebrand this angry customer base has acknowledged is that Cracker Barrel went from enjoyable to “woke.”

The growing tab is $3.2 million more than the total revealed by The Nerve in March.
Of the known overall $11.25 million spent through Aug. 8, a collective $7.76 million was paid by four state agencies to six outside law firms in connection with an ongoing U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) investigation – which started at least two years ago – into the $1.8 billion and related issues.
Enrollment Collapse Pushes Government Schools to Hire Expensive Recruiters to Attract Students
- Details
- By USPIE

School districts struggling with enrollment losses are hiring consultants to recruit students. This comes as more parents are choosing alternatives to government schools, such as private schooling and home education, according to a new report.
On Aug. 5, The New York Times reported that schools in “Orlando, Newark, Memphis and dozens of other cities and towns have hired consultants who aggressively woo parents to convince them to enroll their children in local public schools.”
Government schools lose money when students choose alternative options because per-pupil enrollment figures often determine government funding. Hence, a desperate push to attract more students.
Silfab Solar Whistleblower Alleges Secret Illegal Operations in Fort Mill

- By Alaina Moore - United Patriots Alliance

Jason Rhoades' testimony raises questions of negligence and fuels growing outrage over York County's handling of this foreign-run Fort Mill plant
A former Silfab Solar employee comes forward with evidence alleging the foreign company has been secretly in operation without appropriate permits and was fired days after asking for proof of occupancy permit.
In Fort Mill, a fierce dispute has unfolded over Silfab’s proposed manufacturing facility which is opposed by many York County residents who argue that the site, zoned “light industrial,” is dangerously close to two schools and poorly suited for a plant handling hazardous substances like silane and hydrofluoric acid.
A Discussion Between Concerned Patriots
- Details
- By W.H. Lamb
Bill,
Please bear with me on my question: Why did we not supply Ukraine with long-range missiles 3+ years ago so they could have destroyed Saint Petersburg and Moscow, ending the war as Russian civilians and soldiers quit or assassinated Putin, and saving 1.600,000 lives and $950,000,000,000?
Thanks, John
-------------------
Good to hear from you, John. You've asked a complicated question in my opinion, and the answer may be just as complicated, or perhaps perplexing.
Firstly, the war between Russia and Ukraine has possibly ancient underpinnings--i.e., hatred among people groups that goes far back in history, probably almost to not long after the dissolution of the Roman Empire. But dwelling on ancient rivalries and hatreds won't end today's chaos--it just gives a sort of "setting" for it. Much of it revolves around subscribing to "conspiratorial versions of history", which for the most part are not provable historically beyond doubt and which often are fomented by people or organizations with "agendas". This is especially the case in the ancient intrigues and violence that occurred between Russians and Ukrainians (or their predecessors in history over a thousand years ago).
