Florida's end to vaccine mandates is due to Democrat tyrants
Florida is poised to become the first state in the nation to put an end to any and all state-imposed vaccines to children. And predictably, the left is going nuts, warning of lives lost and death counts and dire circumstances. But the leftists have only themselves to blame for Florida's action.
Bold and Blunt: Halloween in August? Taking back the holidays
Once upon a time in America, Christmas was celebrated even in public schools as the birth of Jesus, and Halloween was at best a one-day affair -- a few cupcakes in class followed by a trick-or-treating at night. Now? Halloween starts in August.
Bold and Blunt: Is the Bible anti-woman?
Women weren't made to be servants, says Daniah Greenberg, author of "Biblical Feminism." And those who use the Bible to insist a woman's place is solely in the home are twisting biblical truths for their own reasons.
Shootings and transgenders and ADHD drugs, oh my
HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy, in the wake of the Minneapolis deadly Catholic school shooting by a transgender, said he is investigating whether certain prescribed drugs to youth are fueling acts of violence. At long last. This is a much-needed investigation that should include all ADHD drugs, too.
Kamala Harris and her petulant, entitled Secret Service expectation
President Donald Trump revoked the Secret Service protection for Kamala Harris, raising a collective outcry from the Democrats who quickly spun the move as dangerous.The real story is Joe Biden sneakily signed a directive adding an extra year to the six months Harris is allowed by federal law.
Climate change propaganda infects U.S. judiciary and more
Republican state attorneys general are petitioning Environmental Protection Agency chief Lee Zeldin to stop funding an Environmental Law Institute program that trains judges in the radical climate change way to go. Less propaganda. More justice is blind -- that's always a good thing.
Democrats need to take their losses like adults
President Trump announced the firing of Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook for alleged mortgage fraud -- and like a broken record struck on repeat, attorneys for Cook have responded with a promise for a court challenge based on their view that the firing is illegal.
Bold & Blunt: Christian media surging
There's a new trend in media and it's one that's bound to send the leftists howling: it's called Christian Media Surge. And it means that at a time when fake news is everywhere, and corporate media is reeling, more Americans are turning to Christian media for their trusted sources of news.
Public schools finally feeling pinch from poor teaching
Leftists blame COVID, crackdowns on illegals, family relocations and even dwindling birth rates. But at root, it's all due to poor teaching. If children were being educated as they ought to be educated, parents wouldn't be seeking alternative schooling to such a degree.
Bold & Blunt: Trump reels back the campus radicalism
It's back-to-school time -- but with the new Donald Trump administration, the atmosphere on college campuses and within the K-12 system is very different. Less DEI. More learning. It's certainly a return to common sense and sanity in the schools.
Bold & Blunt: Overcoming adversity: stories of faith
One common human experience is struggle -- the guarantee that everyone, no matter background, no matter circumstances, no matter anything, will all face struggles and challenges. The key to success is in the response.
Christian media surging in face of fake news
A new survey from Barna and National Religious Broadcasters finds more and more Americans are turning to Christian media as a source of news -- and moreover, it's mostly younger consumers, the Gen Z types, who are leading the charge. Fake news has met its match.
MSNBC goes MS NOW -- and that's what's wrong with media
MSNBC, in what's an obvious attempt at rebranding to recapture lost viewership, has changed its cable network name to MS NOW. As if. As if that makes up for Rachel Maddow.
'Paint It, Black' -- the new song of American security
Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem said the southern wall Congress funded and President Donald Trump ordered built will be painted black so it retains heat and makes it more difficult to climb. Talk about strategic planning. This isn't just hilarious. It's genius.
Democrats, as D.C. crackdown shows, hate Trump more than hate crime
For the first time in who knows how long, the streets of the District of Columbia are becoming safer, not less safe, and more secure, not less secure. And boy, do Democrats hate that.
