#GivingTuesday–Invest in the Next Generation

#GivingTuesday–Invest in the Next Generation

Written by David E. Smith

You’ve likely heard of “Black Friday” and “Cyber Monday,” but do you know about “Giving Tuesday”?

It was started in 2012 as a way of remembering that Thanksgiving isn’t about getting but about giving. You might say this four-year-old campaign is an anti-#gettingstufffriday or #materialismmonday movement.

Today,  I invite you to take part in this effort by supporting our Christian values through your support of the Illinois Family ACTION, which works  diligently to advance politically-incorrect truth.… Continue Reading

U.S. Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX) said on Thursday that he would ensure that men wouldn’t be allowed to go into women’s bathrooms if he were elected president.

The Advocate reported Cruz made his comments on conservative radio talk show host Steven Crowder’s radio show, in which Crowder said that people get offended for using “genetically proper pronouns.”

The Advocate reported what transpired:

“Look, these guys are so nutty that the federal government is going after school districts, trying to force them to let boys shower with little girls,” Cruz responded.

Winston-Churchill

Written by Doug Ibendahl

Looking for a way to work off that big Thanksgiving feast? Why not take a walk around the neighborhood and collect some petition signatures.

There’s still time to get on the March 15 ballot for Precinct Committeeman (or Ward Committeeman in Chicago). A minimum of only 10 valid signatures are needed to get on the ballot for Precinct Committeeman – and one of those can be your own.

FRANK LUNTZ: In two or three sentences, and then we’re going to explore it: what is the greatest moral threat — not economic, not national security — what is the greatest moral threat facing America today?

Hillary Clinton’s Islam Connection

Clinton

Written by Jonah Goldberg

Dear Reader (Including those of you stunned by the news that Charlie Sheen has a sexually transmitted disease. Not since Jim J. Bullock announced he was gay have I been more shocked),

If you Google “Christian terrorism,” you’re probably a [Leftists] to begin with. But if you do — bidden not by your own drive to [liberalism] but by the natural curiosity inspired by this “news”letter — you’ll find lots of left-wing trollery about how the worst terrorist attacks on American soil have been committed by Christians.… Continue Reading

HELP WANTED: Precinct Committeemen

Precinct Committeeman

Written by Doug Ibendahl

A Republican Precinct Committeeman represents the Republican voters of her or his precinct at the County Party level.

But most importantly, a Republican Precinct Committeeman is the face of the GOP within the precinct. A Republican Precinct Committeeman may be the only party official many voters ever meet in person.

This volunteer position is really what one makes of it. Some do more than others. But the Republican Precinct Committeeman’s job is in essence all about helping to grow the GOP and working to deliver the maximum number of Republican votes from his or her precinct on Election Day.… Continue Reading

Syrian

Written by Fred Lucas

President Barack Obama offered assurances this week that Syrian refugees coming into the United States would be thoroughly vetted to ensure they were not involved with terrorism — even though this year multiple terrorism charges were brought against immigrants and refugees across the country who had at one point made it through government vetting to become U.S. citizens, legal residents or attain refugee status.

“As president, my first priority is the safety of the American people and that’s why, even as we accept more refugees — including Syrians — we do so only after subjecting them to rigorous screening and security checks,” Obama said Monday in Turkey, wrapping up the G-20 meeting.… Continue Reading

SyrianRefugees

Written by Ray Nothstine

Republican presidential candidate Ted Cruz said that he will push for a ban against Syrian Muslims entering the United States, citing the Obama administration and intelligence agencies inability to identify refugees from terrorists.

“We should not be allowing Muslim refugees from countries where ISIS and al Qaeda have control of significant amounts of territory because of the inability of this administration, the inability of our intelligence sources to distinguish between who is and is not an ISIS terrorist,” Cruz told Jon Karl of ABC News.Continue Reading

The Values Half of the GOP

Values Voters

Written by Tony Perkins, FRC Action

Over the years, left-wing pundits have eagerly looked for any and every opportunity to eulogize what they call the “religious right.”  But the movement to advance these timeless values can’t be buried in one election cycle or by five lawyers on the U.S. Supreme Court.  These values aren’t going away nor are the millions of voters who use them to guide their vote.   You only need to look at the crowded GOP presidential field and their persistent efforts to win the support of social conservatives.  … Continue Reading
