COVID-19 emergency declarations must end now
The White House, in the coming days, will make a decision on whether or not to continue a couple of the emergency declarations tied to COVID-19. It's high time to stop with the hysteria. The coronavirus hasn't been an emergency for the general public for a very, very long time. Published February 15, 2022
Biden’s own party doesn’t want him
More than half of Americans who vote Democrat say Joe Biden should not run for a second presidential term. Cue Sally Field, with a twist: They hate me -- they really hate me. Published February 14, 2022
Democrats want obedience and worship
Connecticut's Democratic governor, Ned Lamont, said the citizens have done such a good job of obeying government mandates on the coronavirus that now they can have back some of their liberties -- that they "have earned this freedom." Is he on China's payroll or something? Published February 12, 2022
Truckers unite! Democrats should love these protests
The Department of Homeland Security sent 'round a warning to police in America about the possibility of truckers here getting their Canada on and setting up blockades in the streets to protest vaccine mandates. You'd think the left would love this grassroots activism. But no. Published February 10, 2022
Biden’s cognitive function shouldn’t be partisan
This shouldn't be a partisan issue. This shouldn't be a Republican versus Democrat issue. This is an American issue. It goes to the president's ability to protect and defend the Constitution from enemies, and to keep the country safe and secure. Published February 10, 2022
Democrats are playing politics with face masks — and kids
Democrats in Democratic-run states are suddenly, seemingly out of the blue, even somewhat surprisingly, dropping face mask mandates for citizens -- with exceptions and extensions for school children, however. The science is this: Adults vote. Kids don't. Union members do. Published February 9, 2022
CDC is a bureaucratic mess that should be abolished
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is a mess of confusing, conflicting, politicized bureaucracy. Once upon a time, conservatives called for the dismantling of the federal Education Department. Perhaps it's time to consider the same fate for the federal health agency. Published February 8, 2022
Stacey Abrams joins list of Democrats with face mask hypocrisy
Georgia's Democratic gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams was just shamed for a social media photo that showed her face mask-less among a sea of face-masked children and her response? Quit being racist. Welcome to deep Democrat territory, the land called hypocrisy. Published February 7, 2022
‘Natural immunity’ finally squeaks past gaslighters, censors
Once upon a time, natural immunity was a given -- a God-given, in fact. That is to say that humans are equipped by their Creator with the inherent ability to fight off diseases. And that was recognized biology -- settled science, so to speak. Then came the politicization of COVID-19. Published February 5, 2022
American Olympians playing for China are betraying USA
At least seven Americans have jumped Team USA to go play for China in the Olympics. They are betraying the United States, pure and simple. No man can serve two masters. Just as you can't serve God and mammon -- you can't serve freedom and tyranny. Published February 4, 2022
Conservatives can’t afford to take revenge
These are perilous times in America right now. From every corner come calls to censor, catcalls to stifle, cries to shut down and boot and shut up those who speak the so-deemed unspeakable. Conservatives shouldn't enter that movement, no matter how tempting. Published February 3, 2022
Whoopi Goldberg has a right to be wrong
ABC News just suspended Whoopi Goldberg for two weeks from "The View" because she mistakenly, incorrectly and egregiously falsely stated that the Holocaust wasn't "about race" but rather about man's inhumanity to man. This is a missed teaching moment. Published February 2, 2022
Dear Democrats, 70% say enough of the COVID clampdowns
Fully 70% of Americans say they've grown tired of all the coronavirus talk, and equally tired of all the coronavirus clampdowns on freedoms, and they also say it's high time to "get on" with living. In other words: Dear Democrats, it's time to find a new political tool. Published February 1, 2022
No, Biden did not do a Reagan on Supreme Court
President Biden has announced he will choose a Black woman to nominate for retiring Supreme Court Justice Stephen G. Breyer's seat. That means he puts skin color first, consideration for the Constitution second. Published February 1, 2022
Government’s growing get-out-of-jail-free card: Qualified immunity
Many of today's public servants, with alarming and increasing frequency, can legally violate the civil rights of citizens any which way they want, and citizens have very little power to protest in court. This is a recipe for constitutional disaster. Published January 29, 2022
America’s ultimate war is God-given vs. government-granted
Americans are born into their rights, which are given -- freely, no less -- by an all-powerful, all-sovereign God. So as America's belief in, regard for and reliance upon God goes, so goes America's political, cultural, educational and economic structures. Published January 26, 2022
Dr. Fauci pitches next vaccine — or does he?
Dr. Anthony Fauci said it's "prudent" to "prepare" a vaccine that specifically targets omicron. Then in the next breath, he said it's not necessarily necessary. And with that, bam -- Fauci brings his trademark flip-floppiness to America's COVID-19 stage. Published January 26, 2022
Virginia’s lawless leftists go fishing for kids to exploit
Democrats, on school face mask watch, like to pretend they have a moral high ground. But all they're really doing is fishing for victims to exploit so they can further their own selfishly ambitious political goals. Published January 25, 2022
Jen Psaki — Janitor Jen — can’t clean up Biden’s messes
President Biden is so low in the polls that even his friends in the media are warning of voter backlash and clean sweeps of Republican wins in the coming elections. But change? Nope. Biden bungles; Janitor Jen Psaki rushes to clean up his messes. Nary a change in direction comes. Nor will it. Published January 25, 2022
Biden’s foreign policy madness is putting America at peril
Truthfully, President Biden's foreign policy positions seem to be -- anybody's guess. And that's why America's enemies are rejoicing at his presidency. Published January 22, 2022
