Jody Hice: It’s the God-given that makes us great
Rep. Jody Hice said the most crucial principle to remember about America is that here, in this country, individual rights come from God, not the government, and that deviating from this path leads to cultural degradation, Big Government, socialism and, ultimately, utter governmental and societal collapse. He's right, you know. Published January 9, 2020
Nancy Pelosi endangers U.S. by faulting Trump ‘provocations’ of Iran
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, in a tweet that came on the heels of Iran's launch of a dozen ballistic missiles against U.S.-populated military bases in Iraq, said President Donald Trump should quit poking the Iranian bear. She blamed Trump for Iran's hostilities. This is liberal logic at its worst. It's like a whisper to Iran, hey, you got a friend in me. Published January 8, 2020
Iran vows ‘all out war’ — and U.S. must stand strong
Iran shot off more than a dozen missiles at two military bases in Iraq that house U.S. troops, ratcheting tensions but injuring or killing no one -- and now Iran is warning America: Respond and it's war. Well, isn't that a pot calling the kettle black moment. America, on Iran, must not retreat. Published January 8, 2020
Soleimani funeral stampede shows savagery of U.S. enemies
Forty died and more than 200 were injured during funeral services for the killed Gen. Qassem Soleimani. Don't know about funerals in your neck of the woods. But typically, in more civilized section, stampedes and angry rallying and loud vows to kill Americans and attack U.S. spots are not part and parcel of the whole funeral procession experience.

Nancy Pelosi, 2020, keeps up ‘bizarre’ impeachment strategy
Christmas is over, New Year's has ended, 2020 has begun, and what's on the table for Congress is the same that was set last year by Democrats in the House -- impeachment. And that's curious because, in the words of Democrats, impeaching President Donald Trump was a national security must-do, must-do right now. Published January 7, 2020
America is righteous, Iran is the sponsor of terror
America doesn't take its marching orders from Iran. America isn't the younger, weaker, sissier brother in this relationship. America is the righteous one. Iran is the terrorist regime. How far must America go to appease evil? Published January 7, 2020
Mike Pompeo, best line ever: ‘Ask Mr. Soleimani’
Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, in a sit-down with Chris Wallace of Fox News, laid out in precise terms exactly why America is in the right, Iran is in the wrong, and Gen. Qaddem Soleimani, head of the dastardly Quds force, had it coming when President Donald Trump's drone strike took him out and killed him. And then he gave the Best. Line. Ever.

Rose McGowan, you’re dismissed
Rose McGowan, Hollywood actress, model, author and lately, political activist, has taken to Twitter Extreme to call out America as the evil empire to Iran's blooming innocence, outright apologizing to the terrorist regime for President Donald Trump's takedown of the Revolutionary Guard's Gen. Qassem Soleimani. So Rose: Move to Iran. Published January 6, 2020
UN pansies up in arms as Trump goes ‘America First’ on Iran
President Donald Trump, with his airstrike order against Iraq's airport that left dead Iran's Gen. Qassem Soleiman, didn't just set the regime on notice that this administration takes seriously attacks on American citizens. He also told the United Nations: your opinion isn't necessary. And the UN doesn't like that at all. Not one bit. Published January 4, 2020
United Methodist Church split sets sin on display
The United Methodist Church said its organization is going to break into two factions over the issues of LGBTQ rights and same-sex marriage. That's not really a surprise. What is a surprise is that a church, any church, can get by with calling itself a place of Christian worship while scoffing basic biblical teachings of sin and God's will. Published January 3, 2020
Donald Trump sets Iran on notice: This is not your Barack Obama administration
Iran-backed forces attacked Americans at the U.S. Embassy in Iraq, President Donald Trump sent in the airstrikes and killed Quds force chief Gen. Qassem Soleimani at Baghdad International Airport, and now Iran's crying foul, vowing "harsh retaliation" and so forth and so on. But note to Iran: This is not the Barack Obama administration.

Joe Biden is a snob, and heart-and-soul America knows it
Joe Biden told a bunch of rally-goers in Derry, New Hampshire, that coal miners, many of whom live and work in the area, ought to stop all this coal mining nonsense and get with the 21st century program and learn a new trade, a cleaner trade, a more environmentally sound trade -- like coding. What an elitist, entitled, arrogant snob. Published January 2, 2020
Colorado’s new red flag gun law well-intentioned, but wrong
A new red flag gun law just took effect in Colorado giving family members and law enforcement officials the authority to petition a judge to strip an individual's Second Amendment rights based on concerns of mental fitness. And well-intentioned as that law might be -- it stems from the fatal shooting of a sheriff's deputy by a mentally deranged man -- it's still unconstitutional. It's still wrong.

Impeachment costs stretch into — umm, unknown millions
It's bad enough we've got a highly partisan impeachment hunt being led by highly anti-Donald Trump partisans whose sole purpose in political life is to disrupt this White House and boot the president from office. But how about those taxpayers? How about the taxpayers footing this impeachment bill? Well on that, we just don't know. Published December 31, 2019
Second Amendment saves lives in Texas church
Two people were killed and another wounded in Texas after a man wearing a fake beard, wig, hat and long coat entered a church in the community of White Settlement, pulled out a shotgun and began firing. Tragic and horrible as that is -- it could've been much worse. The gunman was stopped in his tracks by a gun-carrying church-goer. Published December 31, 2019
Trump haters floating secret Senate impeachment trial vote are cowardly anti-Americans
There's a new impeachment strategy floating about town and it's one that goes like this: Vote. In. Secret. Seriously. That's the call from some in the Get Trump camp who see a behind-closed-door vote on impeachment in the Senate as something -- what, in line with American values? The Constitution? Moral governance?

Doug Jones, Alabama’s Democratic senator, on dying last campaign legs
Sen. Doug Jones rose to political power in 2018 to become the first Democrat U.S. senator to be elected from Alabama in 25 years, in a state that also voted for Donald Trump for president by almost 28 percentage points in 2016. And his journey down is about to take place just as rapidly. Published December 30, 2019
American colleges are veering into academic ‘police state’ territory
The assistant attorney general for the Civil Rights Division at the Department of Justice just issued a statement reminding that America is not a "police state," and neither should be the college campuses that dot the landscape of this country. The very fact the DOJ has to release this statement shows how far America's freedoms have fallen. Published December 28, 2019
Yale anti-Trump psychiatrist Bandy X. Lee gives psychiatry bad name
Yale psychiatrist Bandy X. Lee, in an interview with Salon, called on House Speaker Nancy Pelosi to "submit" President Donald Trump "to an involuntary evaluation" -- giving Americans, in one fell swoop, one big weighty reason to regard the entire field of mental health therapy with at least a modicum of suspicion.

Democrats’ strategy: Impeach ‘til the cows come home
Democratic members on the House Judiciary Committee, sad because Speaker Nancy Pelosi gets to hold the articles and they don't have any left, have gone back to court to petition for information from former White House Counsel Don McGahn and on grand jury testimony tied to Robert Mueller's special counsel investigation.
