Somehow, I don’t think the phrase “make my day” says enough about President-elect Donald Trump’s Cabinet nominees.
Now that former U.S. Representative Matt Gaetz, Florida Republican, has withdrawn from consideration for attorney general, the most outrageously volatile pick has to be Robert F. Kennedy Jr. for secretary of health and human services.
I’m not sure this will go over well with everyone, but anyone who gives Anthony “gain of function research” Fauci nightmares and has the pharmaceutical giants nervously watching their share prices fall is probably in the right place.… Continue Reading

Motherhood is the foundation of all civilization. A movement determined to dismantle society would inevitably target women’s femininity to disrupt the natural male-female dynamic, leaving behind an androgynous, gender-blurring culture that struggles to reproduce itself. In other words, the culture we largely see today. This explains why the far left is so fixated on advancing the “women in combat” agenda and why Trump’s nomination of Pete Hegseth as secretary of defense has left leftists furious and discombobulated.… Continue Reading

The numbers speak for themselves. MSNBC is suffering through a ratings catastrophe as the disillusioned loyalists, who kept believing the network’s stable of left-wing hosts who continued to promise that Trump was an unelectable Hitler, have walked away.

One of the first things President-elect Donald Trump says he will do when he returns to the Oval Office is close and disband the Department of Education. He said:
“We are going to send all education, [along with its corresponding] work and needs, back to the states. We want them [i.e., the states] to run the education of our children because they’ll do a much better job of it. … We spend more money per pupil, by three times, than any other nation, and yet we are [approaching] the bottom; we’re one of the worst.

An estimated 2.2 million civilian federal workers serve at the pleasure of the president, despite only 4,000 being designated as political appointees. Donald Trump’s first priority as he prepares to retake office must be to establish that he can fire any of them. Whether they hold political appointments, U.S. Senate-confirmed positions, or civil service roles, all federal employees are subject to the president’s authority to terminate their employment. This includes workers in any department or so-called “independent” agency.… Continue Reading

On Tuesday, we did it. We elected Donald Trump.
A friend sent me a note on social media this past Wednesday morning: “Well, he did it!”
That was all it said: He did it.
Indeed, he did.
On Tuesday night, after months of shaking his fist in the face of big government, Big Pharma and the Beltway oligarchs who were threatening his life, liberty and property, Donald Trump became the president-elect.… Continue Reading

Written by Robert Knight
For months, it’s been clear that people on either side are terrified that the opposing presidential candidate will win.
Democrats have doubled down on their assertion that Donald Trump is a fascist or even a Nazi dictator in waiting. They warn of the end of democracy should he win.
Republicans fear that Kamala Harris will push a Marxist agenda and create a one-party state by removing election safeguards such as voter ID while continuing to facilitate the illegal invasion of millions of aliens.… Continue Reading

A Christian brother recently told me that he was originally planning not to vote in this presidential election. He obviously wasn’t going to vote for Kamala, and given Trump’s support for abortion pill access, he couldn’t bring himself to vote for Trump either.
Abortion is so morally repugnant that he couldn’t see himself supporting a candidate who supported access to even the pills. For him, abortion was a reason to not vote in this election.… Continue Reading

As I mentioned in a recent article, Kamala’s appeal comes from portraying herself as a more normal, mainstream, and civil choice than Trump. As she remarked to one audience,
“a lot of what I think is happening . . . is that people are exhausted about the division and the attempts to kind of divide us as Americans.”
And, when running against someone as idiosyncratic as Trump, it’s an obvious—and pretty smart—marketing choice.… Continue Reading

A recent national survey conducted by George Barna of the Cultural Research Center at Arizona Christian University indicates that many Christians do not plan to vote on Nov. 5. Mr. Barna says that about 104 million religious people will not bother to vote in this election, and of those, 32 million are theologically defined as born-again Christians.
Why do so many conservative believers plan to sit this one out?
Mr. Barna’s survey answers that question.… Continue Reading
