Appointed Boards are NOT Lawmakers
- By Tom DeWeese - Catching Fire News
I am issuing a direct challenge to local elected representatives – “Stop cowering to appointed boards who are giving power to private corporations. You were elected to represent the people and protect their rights!”
See it all here, and share this special Catching Fire News program with your elected representatives. It’s time to take back the Republic!
20 Republicans Handed the House Back to the American People
- By Eagle Forum
After years of government-run amuck, Congress is operating in a more structured and transparent way that gives the American people more of a voice. Last week, the media tried to paint the vote for Speaker in a negative light making it seem that Republicans were unable to govern. This wasn’t the case at all. Twenty Republicans strategically fought to end the unyielding power of a few and replace it with more of a collaborative and deliberative process that all Members can take part in.
Belligerent Spending, A Congressional Addiction
- By Veronique de Rugy
After 15 failed attempts, California Rep. Kevin McCarthy finally secured the House speakership. Many worry that the concessions McCarthy made to secure his victory -- especially commitments to restrain government spending -- make the upcoming prospect of raising the debt ceiling perilous. Indeed, some fear that Republicans will refuse to raise the limit if it isn't paired with restraints on spending.
These worries fail to consider the potential financial danger the U.S. will eventually face if government debt continues to balloon unrestrained.
BJU Students Volunteer on Martin Luther King Jr. Service Day
- By Randy Page - BJU

Jordan Baun, who serves as coordinator for the BJU Center for Global Opportunities, collaborates with organizations in the Upstate to place volunteers. BJU President Steve Pettit encourages students, faculty and staff to view MLK Day as a “day on rather than a day off.”
Is the Deep State Coming After Joe Biden?
- By Josh Hammer
The second half of Joe Biden's presidential term has officially gotten off to an ignominious start.
Earlier in the week, CBS News first broke the story that Biden had been storing classified documents, taken from his previous stint as vice president to Barack Obama, at the Chinese-funded Penn Biden Center for Diplomacy and Global Engagement "think tank." Those classified documents were first identified by Biden's personal attorneys, CBS reported, on Nov. 2 -- a full six days before the midterm elections. Richard Sauber, Biden's special counsel, claimed that the White House counsel's office quickly notified the National Archives, which seized the documents posthaste.
Anti-Human Human Trafficking Month

Survivor, Author, Advocate Lynz Piper-Loomis Calls for New U.S. and Global Tools, Increased Engagement to End Human Trafficking
Marks Progress in War on Human Trafficking, Sounds Alarm About Growing Threat During "National Human Trafficking Prevention Month" (Jan. 2023)
CHARLESTON, S.C. -- Lynz Piper-Loomis, a survivor of sexual trafficking and a national and international advocate for anti-human trafficking measures, today hailed the progress achieved in the war on modern human slavery but warned the threat is growing. She called on governments for increased assistance to train citizens, businesses, and nonprofits to combat this evil and help survivors.
Coalition Responds to Newsom's Blasphemous Billboards with Pro-Chastity Message
- By Life Legal Defense Foundation
NAPA, Calif. -- Last September California Governor Gavin Newsom's campaign paid to promote abortion via public billboards in seven states, including Ohio. Some of Newsom's billboards used the words of Jesus to invite women to travel to California for abortions: "Love your neighbor as yourself. There is no commandment greater than these." - Mark 12:31
In response to Newsom's blasphemous billboards, a coalition of pro-life organizations is placing billboards in the same locations as Newsom posted his pro-abortion billboards. One such billboard is located in Columbus, OH.
Never Again Should Anybody Have to Be Amazed
- By Nate Leupp, Chairman of the Fourth Congressional District, SCGOP
I saw a meme the other day that said, “Never again should anybody have to be amazed at how Jim Jones got his followers to drink the poison.”
A few days after Christmas, I sent an email about the rule violations and dishonesty by the “new” Greenville GOP officers (I know, who wants political emails during the Holidays…). I had no expectation that they would admit they were violating rules, but I’m told that thanks to Mr. Ray Sheen taking a stand, the officers were forced to have the Executive Committee vote on canceling the rest of the Party’s meetings. Correctly canceling future meetings does not negate the violation of the improper cancellation of the November and January meetings. A motion or directive passed by our Executive Committee cannot be ignored by a lower body or a single person, just like a motion or directive given by the SCGOP’s Executive Committee cannot be ignored by a county party.
Small Business Owner Wins Zoning Battle, But Legal Issues Still Loom
- By Rick Brundrett - The Nerve
Jeremy Sark says he’s no longer worried about Mauldin officials closing his longtime U-Haul dealership, though the Upstate city hasn’t abandoned a controversial zoning practice at the center of his case.
The Mauldin City Council without comment during a meeting last month reversed a zoning change that would have forced Sark to move his North Main Street dealership by Dec. 31 after nine years in operation. The decision came after Sark in September sued the Greenville County city of about 26,000, City Council, Mayor Terry Merritt and David Dyrhaug, the city’s business and development services director.
The Nerve in October examined Sark’s case in-depth.
House Majority Wastes No Time Launching into New Pro-Life Priorities
- By Suzanne Bowdey - The Washington Stand
Now that the “who” question has been answered in the U.S. House, new Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) is turning Republicans’ attention to the “what.” In the first full week of the GOP’s majority, there are plenty of priorities clamoring for attention, but conservatives have already made it quite clear what’s at the top: life.
Before everyone’s eyes were glued to the speaker’s race, House Majority Leader Steve Scalise (R-La.) tried to give Americans a preview of the big-ticket items Republicans would be tackling in the new year. In a letter to colleagues on December 30, he outlined all of the areas that needed the GOP’s immediate attention — everything from the open border to President Joe Biden’s suffocating energy policy. Included in the 11 “commonsense measures,” as Scalise called them, were the Republicans’ first cracks at the administration’s radical abortion policy.
McCarthy Indeed a Republican Leader for Complex Times
- By Star Parker
Amid the post-mortems of the four-day, 15-vote marathon to elect Kevin McCarthy House speaker, I remind readers of the headline of my Nov. 30 column, "Kevin McCarthy, a Republican Leader for Complex Times."
I thought then that that captured our reality, and I think the process that followed confirmed it.
It is human nature to want things neat and clear. But life never cooperates.
ESG = Environment, Social, Governance – NO – Entering Slavery Gladly
- By Kathleen Marquardt - American Policy Center
We have been watching our country, our world, accepting the chains of slavery that the power elite (Deep State/globalists (PE)) have told us we must wear if we are to save this world. They tell us we have been destroying this once glorious world by our use of its natural resources; by our “greedy” demand for private property rights, thus our freedom; and, especially, by our beliefs that liberty and property rights are vital principles for a just world.
For over 100 years, the PE have been working on every front to destroy those values, to brainwash us into believe we are greedy and evil to hold to those values, and to instill in us values they would never put up with themselves but are determined to force on us — if we don’t willingly accede to them. I do not exaggerate. We have watched for many decades the PE meeting in beautiful resorts around the world – flying in on their private jets, eating exotic and expensive foods and imbibing very expensive wines – all the while telling us that our eating meat instead of insects is destroying “this beautiful world they provide for us”.
Planetary magnetic fields and Biblical creation Part 1
- By Charles Creager, Jr.
One of the earliest arguments against an older earth is the observed fact that the earth magnetic field is decaying. Unfortunately, such early models of the earth's planetary magnetic field did not supply any evidence for a specific age for the earth, only an upward limit. Such early models placed upper limits on the age of the earth at around 12,000 at which point the internal heat of the earth's core from the generating current would be so great that it would blow the earth apart, not to mention that the magnetic field would be stronger than that of a neutron star. That would also make the magnetic field strong enough to kill you by just pulling the iron out of your blood.

US Big Three Auto Companies Commit to Making Cars That People Don't Want
- By Stephen Moore
I grew up in a household with parents who were of the Greatest Generation. They lived and shouldered through the Great Depression, and then their lives and families were thrown into turmoil on Dec. 7, 1941. My grandfather worked for the War Department in Washington, D.C., and during World War II, my father served in the Pacific Theater.
Both my mother and father made a solemn vow that as long as they lived, they would never buy a German or a Japanese car. No matter how well they were made. They were the enemies. They were the ones who killed nearly half a million Americans. Period.
PERKINS: In McCarthy Victory, Everyone’s a Winner - Except the Left
- By Tony Perkins - The Washington Stand
A lot will be said and written about the last 100 hours in Washington — a historic four days that not only gave Americans a new Speaker of the House, but more importantly, a fresh start. Nothing about the process to transfer power to former Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) has been easy, but at the end of the day, nothing worth pursuing ever is. When the smoke clears and Republicans get to work, one thing will be obvious — the pain of this past week was trivial compared to what was gained: a chance to move forward, united.
There are some who will say McCarthy was weakened by the fight. I disagree. When everyone counted him out, he emerged from this humbling process as the House Freedom Caucus and the entire Republican Party did: strong. After more than a decade in leadership, the Californian proved that he’s capable of listening, capable of compromising, and, above all, capable of the change Americans demand.
The Troll Sagas
- By Mike Scruggs
Chapter 4 - Grimhilda Svartslange
Grimhilda continued to look intently at Marja and smiled. In a few minutes, another young girl, trembling with fear, came with a bucket of water and allowed Marja to wash herself, but she said nothing. Marja then began to notice her surroundings. Grimhilda sat gazing into a huge black cauldron sitting over a fire in the middle of the longhouse. She seemed somehow delighted as she stirred the great kettle. Marja shuddered when she saw Grimhilda reach in a basket and pull out two writhing blacksnakes and sink them into her boiling pot. As she stirred, she began to sing in a language Marja did not recognize.
Grimhilda was about the age of her mother and surprisingly beautiful. In fact, she was sometimes flatteringly compared to the Norse goddess Freyja, who was often associated with magic, witchcraft, secret knowledge, and fortune-telling. Grimhilda had long dark tresses, haunting green eyes, and pale skin with no blemishes except a necklace of bluish spirals tattooed just below her neck. She was rather tall and linear with exquisitely refined features. Her nose was slightly prominent but perfectly straight. Her teeth were nearly perfect and white. Her voice, generally harsh and commanding, was soft and musical in singing. But when she smiled or spoke, you somehow had the feeling of being abused.
Lawmaker Wants ESG Factors Banned in State Pension Investments
- By Rick Brundrett - The Nerve
State retirement funds could not be invested based on controversial environmental, social or governance (ESG) factors, under a House bill filed for the new legislative session that starts next week.
The Nerve in May revealed that two major investment firms that manage a substantial share of South Carolina’s pension plan – New York-based BlackRock and Boston-based State Street Corporation – are big supporters of the ESG movement.
As of fiscal year 2021, about $18.5 billion of the approximately $39 billion market value of all investments by the pension plan was managed by BlackRock and State Street, pension records show. The state Retirement System Investment Commission’s annual investment report for last fiscal year, which ended June 30, has not yet been publicly released.
God’s Old Tablecloth
- By W.H. Lamb
Have you ever contemplated just who decides the fate of the universe, the locations of the stars, the courses of the seasons, the history and direction of mankind, the countries men and women inhabit, and the final destination of the lives of each and every one of us? Who decides? Who directs? Who, if anyone, is really in control in this immense expanse of stars and galaxies, and on this tiny and insignificant planet? WHO IS SOVEREIGN IN THIS UNIVERSE? That is the question, is it not?
CVS and Walgreens Plan to Carry Abortion Pill, Become 'Centers of Death,' Pro-Life Advocates Say
- By Ben Johnson - The Washington Stand
Shortly after the Biden administration issued a rule allowing most pharmacies to dispense the abortion-inducing pill mifepristone, representatives from the retail pharmacy chains CVS and Walgreens confirmed that they plan to stock the substance — a move that will put more women’s lives in danger and “transform pharmacies from centers of healing into centers of death,” pro-life advocates say.
Mifepristone, the first of two pills used in a chemical or medication abortion — which the woman administers alone, often on the toilet — deprives the unborn child of nutrition by preventing the release of progesterone, thinning the lining of the uterus. The second pill, misoprostol, induces contractions to expel the deceased child’s body from the womb. Even with incomplete data, the FDA has registered thousands of negative side effects of chemical abortion, including dozens of deaths. A study of 42,000 abortions found that women suffered four times as many adverse side effects from this two-step regimen than surgical abortion. One in five abortions induced by mifepristone resulted in negative health outcomes, the study found. Due to this record, the federal government had required the mifepristone to be distributed only by certain authorized health centers or online distributors.
Law School; Now Only for the “Woke”

Covid Hospitals: Who Calls the Shots on Your Life?
- By Rebecca Terrell - The New American
Grace Schara’s life ended in late 2021 in a Covid hospital in Wisconsin. Her doctor had issued a Do Not Resuscitate (DNR) order, so hospital staff did not revive her as her life ebbed away. But her family claims the DNR violated state law, as they knew nothing about it and tried desperately and unsuccessfully to rescind it before her death.
Read about Grace’s story here.
After conducting an investigation, the Wisconsin Department of Safety and Professional services, the agency charged with ensuring public safety, ruled that state laws governing DNR do not apply to physicians in non-emergency hospital settings.
