Louie Gohmert raises valid point in call to rename Democratic Party

Rep. Louie Gohmert, Republican from Texas, introduced a resolution that would ban the Democratic Party, among other organizations, based on historical truths about the left's embrace of racism and blatant support of slavery.

China is killing America

A handful of conservatives just asked President Donald Trump to keep in place a Roadless Rule that prevents loggers from tapping into Alaska's Tongass National Forest.

America, it’s happening: Government is jailing COVID-19 patients at home

A Kentucky woman who tested positive for COVID-19 was ordered by health bureaucrats to stay at home -- and shackled with an ankle monitor to make she sure does. It's happening, America.

That's to say: Biden is a puppet. Published July 18, 2020

Donald Trump is the wall against anti-American globalism

Scientists long ago exhausted their COVID-19 capital

Hundreds of scientists have joined forces and penned a letter to the World Health Organization chiefs to get an official, authoritative ruling that the new coronavirus is airborne, meaning transmitted by breathing contaminated air.
