The Never Trump Movement Has Become a Spectacle of Moral Buffoonery

Written by Peter Heck

There is no conservative case to be made for Kamala Harris.

None.

Obviously, there are many conservatives, particularly Christian conservatives, who are not voting for Donald Trump based on conviction and principle.

The Four Most Ignorant Words in American Politics

Written by Peter Heck

It doesn’t annoy me that people have disparate opinions on issues that matter, or more specifically, that others would find my own personal opinions ill-informed or wrong. The world might well be a boring place if everyone agreed on everything, so you won’t find me in the camp of those wishing to eliminate intellectual or ideological diversity.

What does annoy me is when a sizable group of people are willing to suspend intellectual curiosity to the issues that matter, put their fingers in their metaphorical ears, and refuse any modicum of critical thinking when forming and spouting opinions.… Continue Reading

Illinois 2024: Three Questions on the Ballot

Written by David E. Smith

Earlier this year, Gov. JB Pritzker urged the Democrats in the General Assembly to pass legislation placing three advisory questions on our ballots for the upcoming election. Every voter in the state of Illinois will have the options of voting either Yes or No.

These questions are non-binding, meaning they simply act as an official poll of voters to guide state lawmakers on public opinion regarding questions of policy, but do not directly change law.… Continue Reading

When Illinois voters make their candidate selections on the November 5, 2024, election ballot, they will also be asked their opinions on three advisory questions:

• Should all medically appropriate assisted reproductive treatments, including, but not limited to, in vitro fertilization, be covered by any health insurance plan in Illinois that provides coverage for pregnancy benefits, without limitation on the number of treatments?

Kamala Harris Calls For Rule Change To Move Pro-Abortion Bill

Posted by New York Families Action

Showcasing her deep and abiding commitment to the pro-abortion cause, Vice President Kamala Harris has come out in support of a damaging U.S. Senate rules change. In the future, if Democrats controlled both houses of Congress and the White House, the Vice President’s proposed rule change would likely make it possible to pass a federal law imposing a “right” to abortion on all 50 states.

The United States Senate is sometimes referred to as the world’s greatest deliberative body.… Continue Reading
