					<description><![CDATA[<p><em><a href="https://illinoisfamily.org/author/?id=21" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Written by David E. Smith</a> </em></p>
<p>On February 26, 2025, the U.S. House Oversight Subcommittee held a hearing on the role of foreign aid and the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) in which it was revealed that American taxpayers were funding our enemies and the enemies of our allies. This news was largely ignored by the drive-by media, and in my opinion, must be better highlighted by center-right sources.</p>
<p>U.S. Representative <strong>Tim Burchett</strong> (R-TN) exposed how the Taliban &#8211; a Sunni Islamist terror group from Afghanistan &#8211; was receiving over <em>$40 million a week</em> in indirect funding through USAID.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2025/03/millions-upon-millions-of-tax-dollars-for-the-taliban/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p>Home-schoolers consistently outscore government school students in every academic area. It’s no wonder that the public school establishment hates and fears home schooling.</p>
<p>The clearest evidence yet came in this past Thursday’s <em>Washington Post</em>. “<a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/education/interactive/2023/christian-home-schoolers-revolt/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">THE REVOLT OF CHRISTIAN HOME-SCHOOLERS</a>” (all caps in original) is a voluminous, front-page article almost entirely about one Loudoun County, Virginia, couple who had home-schooled their children before opting to enroll them in public schools.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2023/06/washington-post-hit-piece-on-home-schooling-is-thinly-veiled-attack-on-christianity/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p>Author and former Fox News host, <strong>Bill O’Reilly</strong>, has a revealing quiz he has created and shared on his <a href="https://www.billoreilly.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">website</a> and in radio interviews. The quiz is rather persuasive for the average non-political person, independent, or swing voter who may have voted for <strong>Joe Biden</strong> because they didn’t like <strong>Donald Trump</strong>.</p>
<p>Here is his simple, but revealing <a href="https://www.billoreilly.com/b/Does-It-Make-Sense-That.../959442776844811170.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">10-question quiz</a>.   Answer “Yes” or “No” in your mind.  Each question starts with:</p>

<p>We’re so far beyond media bias that we’ve entered the Twilight Zone, where nothing is as it seems.</p>
<p>Imagine, if you will, a secure border.  You can because the media are blacking out the reality. Hundreds of thousands of illegals are streaming into the United States and are being bused around the country. Despite the extreme severity of the crisis and its implications for America’s future, TV network coverage of the border has plummeted 96 percent since March, according to the <a href="https://www.mrc.org/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Media Research Center</a>.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2021/08/living-in-the-liberal-medias-twilight-zone/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[<p><em>Written by R. Emmett Tyrell</em></p>
<p>Looking back on the contradictory pronunciamentos uttered by President <strong>Joe Biden</strong> so solemnly over the last few months on the subject of Afghanistan, what has struck me is how inane they show him to be. When he was affirming that everything in Kabul, Afghanistan, was hunky-dory or when he was sounding the alarm, he was inane. His statements were vacuous.<span class="column--highlighted-text"> How did this man become president of the United States?</span></p>
<p>Oh, I know he was up against an amazingly weak field of candidates.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2021/08/jimmy-carter-is-redeemed/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p>There is very little new under the sun. The monument and statue destruction that we are witnessing has been witnessed in other times and other places. A tyrant&#8217;s first battlefield is to rewrite history. Most notable were the political purges of <strong>Joseph Stalin</strong>. The Soviet government erased figures from Soviet history by renaming cities — such as the Imperial capital of St. Petersburg to Petrograd and Leningrad and Stalingrad — and eradicating memories of czarist rule.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2020/08/leftist-effort-to-revise-american-history/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p><em>Written by</em> <em>Sebastian &#38; Katharine Gorka</em></p>
<p>When President <strong>Barack Obama</strong> took office, <strong>Osama bin Laden</strong> was in hiding, al-Qaida in Iraq was in retreat, and the governments of the Middle East, while not necessarily exemplars of democracy, were at least stable.</p>
<p>Today, seven-and-a-half years later, as we near the end of his presidential term, al-Qaida is resurgent under the leadership of <strong>Ayman al Zawahiri</strong>, the Taliban rules half of Afghanistan, and al-Qaida in Iraq, after becoming ISIS, has declared a caliphate with more territory than the United Kingdom and with “fully operational” affiliates in 18 nations around the world and dozens more groups sympathetic to its totalitarian religious ideology of global jihad.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2016/09/america-in-retreat/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>
