Socialism is rooted in godlessness
In America, freedom and faith go hand in hand. Big Government cannot survive when the people don't rely completely on it for answers.

Mike Pompeo open to political future: ‘The Lord will’ guide me
Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, in a recent visit to his home state of Kansas, sparked talk about his political future, which some see in the Senate, others in the governor's mansion, and still others -- himself included -- unsure.

This nation needs a course correction back to godlier times -- back to Judeo-Christian principles. Published March 18, 2019

Hijab hijinks on the high P.C. seas
Judge Jeanine Pirro of Fox News was just ripped across the media world for wondering aloud, on television, if a Muslim lawmaker who wears a hijab might be doing so in order to comply with the Koran, and if so, to what extent sharia law might one day supplant the Constitution as the governing compass.

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez at SXSW: Americans leave jobless ‘to die’
