SNAP: Reforming a Broken System

Written by David E. Smith

For years, conservatives have warned that America’s welfare system—especially the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP)—has been riddled with fraud, waste, and abuse. Now, at long last, someone in Washington D.C. is taking the problem seriously. Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins has announced a sweeping overhaul of the nation’s food stamps program, and the changes could not be more timely.

Roughly 43 million Americans—about 12 percent of the population—are enrolled in SNAP.… Continue Reading

Why the Left Gets a Pass on Political Violence

Written by Robert Knight

We keep being told that both sides of America’s political divide are equally culpable for violent rhetoric and violent acts. It’s a lie.

Virtually all of it comes from the political left. It wasn’t right-wingers who shot President Donald Trump and murdered health care executive Brian Thompson in New York and conservative activist Charlie Kirk in Utah in cold blood.

It wasn’t Young Republicans who attacked a Turning Point USA event on the University of California, Berkeley, campus last week, beating up a TPUSA staffer.… Continue Reading

Marxism’s War on Faith, Freedom, and the Family

Written by David E. Smith

In this wide-ranging conversation, Pastor Jack Hibbs interviews Dr. Erwin Lutzer about the growing appeal of socialism in America, the failures of Marxist ideology, and the urgent spiritual implications for the church. Drawing from his book We Will Not Be Silenced, Dr. Lutzer explains why socialism inevitably collapses—because it destroys initiative, fuels corruption, and depends on spending wealth created by capitalism.

The Slope Isn’t Slippery — It’s Inevitable

Written by Peter Heck

Societies like ours don’t jump off ethical cliffs in a single leap. They drift toward them in the name of lofty sounding ideals like autonomy and empathy.

Illinois Senate Bill 1950 is a tragic example of this.

The bill allows doctors to prescribe lethal drugs to patients deemed “terminal” within six months.… Continue Reading

Counterfeit Christianity Exposed

Written by Dr. Everett Piper

No matter their claims, Nick Fuentes and those who sympathize with him are not Christians.

How do we know this? Because what matters to true Christians is Jesus. Christ is our “highest good.” He is the most important aspect of our lives. He is our summum bonum. He and nothing else — not politics, not popularity nor personal animus — is our “first thing.”

Christ, not clicks, drives every decision of a Christian’s life.… Continue Reading

Alex Newman Addresses Communist Threats to the U.S.

Written by David E. Smith

Investigative journalist Alex Newman outlines how Venezuela has become a dangerous hub for a broader communist alliance threatening U.S. national security. He explains that Venezuela itself is weak militarily, but operates as a tentacle of a massive beast made up of communist regimes, drug cartels, Islamist terror networks, and globalist actors — all working together to undermine the United States.

Newman traces the origins of this movement to the 1990 São Paulo Forum, an alliance linking Cuba, Brazil, Nicaragua, Venezuelan leadership, and Colombian narco-terrorists, all supported by Russia, China, and Iran.… Continue Reading

Why Democrats Are Rooting for the Shutdown

Written by Star Parker

One big word worth learning is “schadenfreude.”

Schadenfreude is “pleasure derived by someone from another person’s misfortune.”

Nothing better captures the perverse pleasure that Democrats are deriving from the pain inflicted on our country caused by the government shutdown.

Democrats precipitated this shutdown to force Republicans to back off efforts to turn around our suicidal growth of government spending and debt.

House Republicans passed a continuing resolution ready for the president’s signature to fund the government, but Democrats said no.… Continue Reading

Who Are the Democratic Socialists?

Written by David E. Smith

Thanks to cable news and the wall-to-wall coverage of national conventions, most Americans have at least a basic sense of what Democrats and Republicans claim to represent. Yes, there’s still plenty of confusion in our political discourse — but generally speaking, Democrats push for more government intervention to solve real or perceived problems, while Republicans emphasize free markets, limited government, and individual liberty.

But how many Americans understand the goals of Democratic Socialists of America (DSA)?… Continue Reading
