  • Demands to cancel George Washington continue

    Demands to cancel George Washington continue

    This is just another indication of how the left is at war with Western civilization. If we continue down this path, there would be virtually nothing left of the great traditions of freedom and flourishing that the West has enjoyed.

  • So much for the rule of law

    So much for the rule of law

    I believe we are seeing on display Alinsky-type tactics in last week’s unprecedented (possibly illegal) leaking of the Supreme Court decision-in-the-making that could possibly overturn Roe v. Wade. When the left doesn’t get what it wants through the rule of law, they resort to dirty tactics to get their way.

  • Biden's claim about children: I wish it were a gaffe

    Biden's claim about children: I wish it were a gaffe

    I think most Americans would agree that fighting racism and striving toward a color-blind society, is a worthy goal. But what if the attempts to achieve that goal actually promote the very thing they say they are fighting?

  • Schools as 'religion-free zones'?

    Schools as 'religion-free zones'?

    It would seem that the left cares about free speech and freedom of expression when it comes to things the founders would have never dreamed about, like alternative sexualities and gender fluidity, but not for things explicitly protected in the Constitution like the free exercise of religion.

  • Distorting Florida’s parental rights bill

    Distorting Florida’s parental rights bill

    Why should parents, who are responsible for their children’s education and well-being, have to pick up the pieces as our society recklessly destroys these little children and their futures?

  • Will the music go silent in Kiev?

    Will the music go silent in Kiev?

    Perhaps Putin has bitten off more than he can chew in this invasion. The Ukrainian people are resolved to stand up against this tyranny. Pray for them in this hour of crisis.

  • Are peaceful protests under attack?

    Are peaceful protests under attack?

    There seems to be a double standard when it comes to truly peaceful protests versus the violent ones. Since the death of George Floyd in Minneapolis at the hands of a policeman (now convicted of manslaughter), there have been hundreds of protests across the United States.

  • The faith of George Washington

    The faith of George Washington

    We live in an era where the heroes of yesteryear are often vilified. It’s hard to believe that George Washington, “the father of our country,” fits in that category.
