Erasing the Pledge, Rewriting the Culture

Written by Robert Knight

A city board in northwestern Virginia voted Tuesday to remove the Pledge of Allegiance as the opener for its meetings.

One of the Winchester Planning Commission’s liberal female members blew off the tradition as “pageantry,” and another called it “unnecessary.” Without discussion, they voted 4-2 to toss the Pledge into the hopper.

This is in line with what Democrats are doing to Virginia now that they have taken total control in Richmond.… Continue Reading

Jim Crow or Common Sense? The Media’s War on Voter ID

Written by Tim Graham

The people who call themselves the “mainstream media” have a remarkable tendency to take the minority position on an 80-20 issue, most recently on requiring voters to show a photo ID at the polls. U.S. House Republicans have passed the SAVE Act, while Democrats have almost unanimously opposed it.

But the American people do not. Gallup pollsters report 84% of Americans support requiring photo ID to vote — 98% of Republicans, 84% of independents, and 67% of Democrats.… Continue Reading

March 17 Matters and Here’s Why

Written by Alyssa Sonnenburg

The University of Chicago Institute of Politics, WBEZ, the Chicago Sun-Times, and International House recently covered the three frontrunner Democratic candidates running for the open U.S. Senate seat in Illinois for the upcoming Primary on March 17^th.

The debate featured candidates Congresswoman Robin Kelly (D-IL, District 2), Congressman Raja Krishnamoorthi (D-IL, District 8), and Illinois Lieutenant Governor Juliana Stratton.

I watched the debate so that you wouldn’t have to and these are the big takeaways.… Continue Reading

The Media Still Bows to Nancy Pelosi

Written by Tim Graham

Nancy Pelosi may be retiring from Congress, but no one should expect the DNC media to stop treating her as a most glorious political figure. She draws deep bows wherever she goes. She’s always the Best Ever.

On CBS’s “Sunday Morning” in early 2024, substitute host Tracy Smith announced Pelosi “has a new book out, ‘The Art of Power’ — an art which Nancy Pelosi is something of a master.” After Pelosi bizarrely suggested Joe Biden could go on Mount Rushmore, Leslie Stahl just had to follow up with flattery:

“If there were a Mount Rushmore for Speakers of the House, Nancy Pelosi would certainly be up there, commemorating her 20 years as a commanding leader in Congress.”

The White House, Teenagers and Media Bias

Written by David E. Smith

The Trump White House has officially launched a media-bias page on its website — and judging by the hysteria from the legacy press, the Trump Administration hit a nerve. Breitbart reports that the new page highlights falsehoods, distortions, and slanted coverage from the usual suspects. And the reaction from those “objective journalists” tells you everything you need to know.

It’s exciting to see a Republican administration go on offense rather than shrink back.… Continue Reading

Antifa’s Playbook: The Left’s “Idea” of Organized Chaos

Written by David E. Smith

Late-night host Jimmy Kimmel recently went on air to tell Americans that Antifa, designated by the Trump administration as a “major terrorist organization,” doesn’t exist. Ironically, Joe Biden said much the same during the 2020 debates, calling Antifa “an idea, not an organization.”

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.… Continue Reading

Shutdown Spin: How the Media Always Blames Republicans

Written by Tim Graham

If the national media can be counted on to spin anything dramatically toward the Democrats, it’s a government shutdown. They feel passionately that the Democrats are the Party of Government, and the Republicans are the Haters of Government, so who naturally favors shutting it all down?

Even before the shutdown occurred, NPR and PBS issued their poll warning Republicans would get more of the blame than Democrats. That’s why those partisan hacks deserved defunding.… Continue Reading

Brian Stelter Underlines CNN Hypocrisy on White House Behavior

Written by Tim Graham

Liberal journalists who decry an allegedly pusillanimous White House press corps under Trump never seem to spend 10 seconds considering how “courageous” this group was under Biden.

CNN “Chief Media Analyst” Brian Stelter tweeted:

“The Trump White House has sought to reshape the press corps in its favor this year, and today showcased how well the effort has succeeded.”

Stelter was unhappy that no one ruined President Donald Trump’s Q&A session in the Oval Office with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky.… Continue Reading

Welfare, Immigration, and the Left’s ‘Free Stuff’ Agenda

Written by Robert Knight

The Democrats’ “free stuff army” has stopped growing, just in time. Maybe.

At some point, if tax eaters outnumber taxpayers, the whole thing will come crashing down.

That is the actual Cloward-Piven Strategy concocted by Marxist academics Richard Cloward and Frances Fox Piven back in 1966. Their hope was that a socialist government would pick up the pieces and destroy capitalism.

Anyway, the border is now secure under President Donald Trump after four years of President Joe Biden’s policies allowing an estimated 6 million to 10 million migrants to enter the United States illegally and get on the dole.… Continue Reading

Yes, the 2020 Election Was Stolen. We Have the Proof.

Written by Wayne Allyn Root

Say it out loud. Say it with pride. Repeat after me…

The 2020 election was stolen.

I’ve known this for five years. You’ve known this for five years. I’ve said all along — the key to President Donald Trump‘s second term is PROVING it. That is what just happened. The evidence has been found. What happens next will change everything.

FBI Director Kash Patel has forwarded documents hidden by the FBI on a Chinese plot to steal the 2020 election by mass producing fake voter IDs to allow fraudulent mail-in voting by illegal aliens — including Chinese nationals in the U.S.… Continue Reading
