					<description><![CDATA[<p><em>Written by David E. Smith</em></p>
<p>Late-night host <strong>Jimmy Kimmel</strong> recently went on air to tell Americans that Antifa, designated by the Trump administration as a “major terrorist organization,&#8221; doesn’t exist. Ironically, <strong>Joe Biden</strong> said much the same during the 2020 debates, calling Antifa “an idea, not an organization.”</p>
<p>Many Democrats and their allies in the media have repeated that line for years. But if Antifa is merely an “idea,” not an organized movement bent on chaos and intimidation, then there’s no way to confront or curtail it under the law.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2025/10/antifas-playbook-the-lefts-idea-of-organized-chaos/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[<p><em>Written by Elise Cooper</em></p>
<p><em>Slanted </em>is the third book by <strong>Sharyl Attkisson</strong>, and as with her other two, it is a refreshing read.  It is nice to know that there are still independent journalists who put fact over opinion, and she is one of those.  To no one&#8217;s surprise, she talks about the shift in the news, from a focus on reporting the facts to more on trying to push a narrative on the American people.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2020/12/one-of-the-last-honest-reporters-speaks-out/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[<p><em>Written by John Biver</em></p>
<p>U.S. Senator <strong>Ted Cruz</strong> (R-Texas) would <em>not</em> have signed the massive spending bill last Friday if he were president.</p>
<p><strong>Ed Straker</strong> at <em>American Thinker</em> lists a series of Tweets by Ted Cruz that lay out some of the truly ugly/awful/terrible and inexcusable contents found in that $1.3 trillion-dollar budget.</p>
<p>Here are just a few of those Tweets:</p>
<blockquote><p><span style="background-color: #ffff99;">— Ted Cruz (@tedcruz) March 22, 2018</span></p>
<p><span style="background-color: #ffff99;">This is why I’ll vote against the omnibus spending bill:</span></p>
<p><span style="background-color: #ffff99;">In 2016, the American people voted overwhelmingly for Republicans to change Washington.</span></p></blockquote>&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2018/04/the-1-3-trillion-omnibus-spending-bill-nevertrumpers-squeal-with-joy/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a>]]></description>
