There Are More than Two Choices to Protect Paris Mountain
- Details
- By Emily S. Poole - Greenville, SC
Safeguarding Paris Mountain from reckless and environmentally destructive development remains a top priority for Greenville County residents.
As we learn more about the Inn at Altamont project that soon is expected to be submitted to the city of Travelers Rest, one talking point from developer Krut Patel of the Divine Group and other hotel supporters is this: If plans to construct a hotel fall through, they might instead build nearly 800 apartments on the site.
This has many anxiously wondering which of the two choices — a new hotel or apartments — would be worse.
This is an age-old tactic used by developers who want nothing more than to maximize their own profit. When the public mobilizes to oppose harmful development projects, the developer often then presents another, even more destructive idea and then asks the public to pick between them. The developer’s goal is to make the public consider an option worse than the first so that the public gravitates toward the original plan.
Chief Justice Roberts Can Avert an Impending Constitutional Crisis - But Will He?

- By Suzanne Bowdey - The Washington Stand
For nearly a decade, Democrats have campaigned on little more than the message that President Donald Trump is Adolf Hitler reincarnated. Although Trump won both the electoral and popular votes in November, effectively having been given a mandate from the American people to govern the nation, the old cries of “Dictator!” may soon be heard again from the progressive corners of the nation — unless the U.S. Supreme Court steps in and averts a rapidly approaching constitutional crisis.

Operation Rescue to Demand Justice, Filing Complaints with Medical Board
FORT COLLINS, Colo. -- Operation Rescue has launched a full investigation into the death of Alexis “Lexi” Arguello, an 18-year-old Colorado girl who died from abortion complications on February 6, after delayed emergency transport from the Fort Collins Planned Parenthood.
“Our team has been gathering information on this death for weeks, slowly piecing together exactly what happened,” said Sarah Neely, Chief Operating Officer of Operation Rescue. “On March 12, however, testimony during a hearing with the Colorado Committee of Health and Human Services confirmed everything we have been investigating, including Planned Parenthood’s suspected failings.”
Ukraine, Russia ‘Just a Breath Away From a Full Ceasefire’

- By Emmitt Barry - Worthy News Correspondent
(Worthy News)—A spokesperson for the State Department expressed optimism that the end of the war in Ukraine could be imminent, saying on Thursday that Ukraine and Russia are “just a breath away from a full ceasefire” after three years of conflict.
State Department spokesperson Tammy Bruce told anchor Nichole Berlie on ‘NewsNation Now,’ “We are just a breath away from a full ceasefire, and then we can begin to talk about not just peace for a week or six months but an enduring peace that the people of Ukraine and Russia and the world can rely on. That is what America has helped facilitate, and that’s what we’re continuing to do each day.”
Eagle Forum Applauds Executive Order Dismantling the Department of Education

Public schools in America were vastly superior before the Federal Government turned on the funding faucet. It’s time to write ‘finis’ to federal aid to education… — Phyllis Schlafly
“The long-awaited abolition of the Department of Education has arrived,” said Eagle Forum President Kris Ullman. “Since the unnecessary creation of the Department in 1979, Eagle Forum has worked to dismantle it and return education policy to where it belongs — to the states and local communities. Thank you, President Trump!”
Confirm Mike Huckabee as Ambassador to Israel
- Details
- By Star Parker
Confirmation of President Donald Trump's nominee to be U.S. ambassador to Israel, Mike Huckabee, has been held up in the Senate. Word now is that hearings will be held next week.
What's holding things up? Pressure from Democrats, of course.
If anyone is qualified to be America's ambassador to Israel, it is Mike Huckabee. As the former two-term governor of Arkansas, where his daughter Sarah is the current governor, former Republican presidential candidate, cable TV celebrity, Baptist minister, and Evangelical Christian, Huckabee is a perfect candidate.

Club for Growth is the premier fiscal conservative watchdog in the country, preparing and distributing scorecards based on state legislators voting records for each session. Their 2024 scorecard illustrates two key facts voters in South Carolina must address now and during legislative elections in 2026: The South Carolina Freedom Caucus and its members are leading the way on conservative issues and fighting for a more fiscally sane and responsible future, and the rest of House Republicans voting habits are nearly indiscernible from the Democrats.

Nation ‘passed through valley of shadow of death’ says aid worker as families return to abandoned homes in war zone
SPRINGFIELD, Penn. — Thousands of families who fled Hezbollah’s deadly rocket attacks in war-torn northern Israel are considering returning home this month as a fragile ceasefire with Hamas collapsed in Gaza on Tuesday.
More than 60,000 Israelis were forced to abandon their homes in the north and relocate, leaving behind virtual ghost towns. Now some are looking to return, but the Gaza ceasefire collapse creates more uncertainty about stability on Israel’s northern border with Lebanon.

The Battle Against the New-World Order (Part 1 of 5)

- By Lyle J. Rapacki, Ph.D. - Arizona Today
"If the watchman sees the sword coming and does not blow the trumpet to warn the people and the sword comes and takes someone's life, I will hold the watchman accountable for their blood" (Ezekiel 33:6).
I received an email from a lady I had never met but who has received several of my commentaries even though she was not on any of my distribution lists. These are her words from that email.
"I would like to ask you a question regarding 'defeating the New World Order' and the satanic agendas associated with them. God's Word prophesied this would come, and I have known about it since I was saved in 1974, but my question is: now that we are on the brink of so many apparent diabolical machinations, and Trump is fighting so many battles to erase the evil in our government how are We the People to respond? It doesn't sound like we are able or can defeat the NWO but only can resist it even until to death. Have I missed something? The question troubles me a lot because I want to be obedient to Him...anyway, I'd appreciate your thoughts on this troublesome issue. Thank you, Sir."
Johnson on Schumer's Surrender: 'Buckle Up. ...[We're] Building Muscle Memory for Winning'
- Details
- By Suzanne Bowdey - The Washington Stand
Apart from Donald Trump, no one is more unpopular among Democrats right now than the Senate’s Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.). The longtime leader infuriated his party Friday, surrendering on the government shutdown and handing Republicans a victory that can only be described as miraculous. Not only was his decision to cave after days of tough talk a shock, it’s also making Schumer the target of “volcanic anger” in his own party. As one Democratic aide put it after the vote, “I’ve never seen anything like it in the time I’ve been in the Senate ...” And as far as conservatives are concerned, Schumer had it coming.
Sham Cease-Fires versus Lasting Peace
- Details
- By Mike Scruggs
Ending the Bloodbath in Ukraine
I am an Air Force combat veteran of the Vietnam War. During the Vietnam War, President Lyndon Johnson declared 16 bombing halts to encourage the North Vietnamese to negotiate sincerely for peace. The North Vietnamese used all 16 of these bombing halts to build up and reinforce their manpower, munitions, and supplies to continue their invasion of South Vietnam. This included increasing the number and quality of antiaircraft guns and radar. Thus, Lyndon Johnson’s bombing halts resulted in a stronger enemy and increased U.S. and South Vietnamese casualties. USAF and Navy aircraft crews engaging new and improved North Vietnamese antiaircraft systems along the Ho Chi Minh Trail experienced as a consequence more losses and casualties. I suspect my own Purple Heart experience was related to intensified North Vietnamese antiaircraft tcapabilities following a bombing halt.
Is The U.S. Doomed To Sink? A “Titanic” Question
- Details
- By W.H. Lamb
A long time ago (actually in 1956, my second year in university—which is a ‘long time ago’ for sure), I took a public speaking class. I really enjoyed that class, and I’ve done a fair amount of public speaking since those days, an activity that I do enjoy. One of the class assignments was to come up with a “proposal” to accomplish something unusual or difficult, or both. Searching for a suitable topic, I suddenly came up with a “eureka--I have found it” moment (with a ‘tip of the hat’ to the ancient Sicilian philosopher, Archimedes—c. 287 B.C.-212 B.C.). I had recently been reading, for my very first time, about the loss of the passenger liner, RMS Titanic in 1912. What better “unusual” topic could there be, in those halcyon days of 1956, then to come up with a proposal to “RAISE THE TITANIC”? It became my talk’s title.
Council’s Role in Guiding Development and Zoning
- Details
- By Benton Blount - Chairman of Greenville County Council
Greenville County Council plays a big role in shaping local development through zoning laws and planning decisions. The County Council doesn’t build houses or shopping centers itself – instead, it sets the rules that guide where and how development can happen. These rules (known as zoning ordinances) must follow South Carolina’s state laws on planning. Council members work with the county’s planning commission and staff to update zoning maps, consider rezoning requests, and make sure new growth fits the community’s comprehensive plan. In short, County Council creates the framework for development, aiming to balance growth with residents’ needs.
What Women Want
- Details
- By Kristen A. Ullman - Eagle Forum President
Phyllis Was Right, Again!
“Most women just don’t want to be liberated from home, husband, family, and children.” So said Eagle Forum founder Phyllis Schlafly more than 30 years ago. Two articles published recently confirm Phyllis’s wisdom when it comes to what women want.
The Wall Street Journal recently ran an article by an Australian social scientist entitled, “Why Are Girls Less Likely to Become Scientists?” with a sub-headline declaring that, “Closing the gender gap in STEM jobs has proved difficult, perhaps because it has more to do with the priorities of men and women than with sexism.” Two days later, The Free Press published “How I Became a Wife,” by Larissa Phillips who tells how when she was in the sixth grade her mother gave her a poster of the Gloria Steinem quote ‘A woman needs a man like a fish needs a bicycle.’ The feminist messages she was fed as a young woman made her swear off “the idea of ever becoming a wife.” But, she says, “after 25 years of marriage, I couldn’t disagree more.” Too bad her mother didn’t give her a subscription to the Phyllis Schlafly Report instead!

Supreme Court Rules Utah Doesn't Have a Right to Its Own Land
- Details
- By Kathleen Marquardt - American Policy Center
In 2013, Utah submitted its Transfer of Public Lands Act to the federal government, calling on it “to fulfill its pledge under the state’s Enabling Act to dispose of most federal lands in the state, some of which would be placed back to the state.
Eleven years later, in January of this year, the Supreme Court refused Utah’s filing to bring 18.5 million acres of its land and its resources under state control. This is unappropriated land – that is, land that is not designated as national monuments, national ports, or land held for military bases or held in trust for Indian reservations. The decision came in a brief order with no explanation of its reasoning.
This is about land and ownership. Should the federal government control our land or should we the People and our states?
The FDA Can Save Lives by Keeping Copycat Drugs Off the Market

- By Stephen Moore
For decades, the United States has led the world in pharmaceutical innovation -- developing drugs that combat cancer, heart disease, AIDS, diabetes and other killer diseases. One recent study found that "in health-sciences output in the Nature Index, the United States' Share is almost 8,500, higher than the next 10 leading countries combined."
The industry's research and development has saved and improved tens of millions of lives in the U.S. alone and perhaps 10 times that number around the world. Yet somehow Washington has come to regard the industry as a villain.

Can Evolution and Intelligent Design Coexist?
- Details
- By Charles Creager, Jr.
In the debate over origins, evolution and intelligent design Clearly stand as separate sides. Both perspectives have their own reasoning and followers. They're often presented as mutually exclusive, with proponents of one ideology dismissing the other as flawed or even fake. But what if we told you that these two ideas might not be as black and white as they seem?
Intelligent design Is the idea that life contains systems there are far too organized and complex to have been develop by natural processes. This is in part because the odds against being able to acquire and assemble the needed components even on the level of a single cell exceed the number of possible events in the universe by thousands of orders of magnitude. Put simply abiogenesis is statistically impossible, And the only known solution is an intelligent designer. No actual solution to this dilemma has ever actually been proposed. The responses are generally assuming that there must be a problem with your calculations, and they go on to insist on blind faith that there has to be a process that will allow it to work. However, no actual problems with the calculations or a solution that can be demonstrated mathematically to overcome the odds is ever presented.
"Lawrence "Larry" Patton McDonald
- Details
- By Press Release
Congressman Larry McDonald seemed to disappear into thin air.
This man, whose presence may have made Flight 007 a target of the Soviets, was, according to Warren P. Mass writing in The New American (click here) in 1988, "becoming the unifying force of American, and even international, anti-Communists." Mass states that "[b]y assuming the chairmanship of the John Birch Society, establishing the Western Goals Foundation... and serving on the boards of the Conservative Caucus and the Committee for the Survival of a Free Congress, Larry McDonald became the most dangerous enemy the Communists had." This was strengthened by the fact that McDonald assembled a private intelligence network against communist infiltration while serving on the House Armed Services Committee.
Hearing the Cries of the Helpless, Needy and the Elderly

- By Lois J. Gates -Travelers Rest, SC
Justice demands that all men live again eternally that they might receive of the things done in the body, whether they be good or bad.
Here some sinners prosper through sin and cheating, and many saints live in poverty because they do not seek gain unjustly as sinners do.
The ungodly steal, cheat, prosper through lies and deceit, even murder, by every conceivable means, and live off the labor and ignorance of the poor. The wicked live off the society, which he damns by his product. Thousands of the poor are robbed and forced to support him. The arrogant mistress lives in pleasure and sin while the virtuous girl toils in the sweatshop, denying herself the pleasures of sin because she has a hope of the future. The wicked take advantage of the righteous, and thousands cry for help, refusing to break God’s laws to get revenge. Where is justice going to be meted out if not in this life to come?
Important Call-To-Action by Greenville Patriot Caucus

- By Greenville Patriot Caucus
Call the Governor’s office and urge Governor McMaster to remove Dr. Simmer's name from nomination! Then contact your Senator and let him/her know you've done so. Ask that they NOT confirm Dr. Simmer's nomination if the Governor does not remove his name. Phone: 803.734.2100
Important Information Senate committee hearings will commence Thursday (3/20/25) this week to hear Dr. Simmer’s testimony. It's important to note that our Senate cannot remove Dr. Simmer’s nomination- only the Governor can. We believe raising our concerns to the Governor and urging him to remove Dr. Simmer’s nomination is a streamlined effort that will effectively raise our concerns, providing multiple opportunities to course correct. Dr. Simmer recommended and encouraged what we now know to be failed policies for mask mandates, social distancing, and COVID vaccines for children as young as 6 months old! Please respectfully let your voices be heard!
Less Waste, Lower Taxes: SC Freedom Caucus’ Plan to Rein in Reckless Spending
- Details
- By SC Freedom Caucus
From climate change alarmism to corporate welfare, SCFC is taking a stand against taxpayer-funded nonsense.
This week, the SCFC offered an alternative state budget which would cut roughly $1 billion from House Leadership’s budget proposal ultimately to fund the largest tax cut in state history, moving us from 6.2% to 5%. The SCFC put up amendments to cut new money going to state agencies and commissions, while also proposing to cut existing budgets of agencies and commissions who don’t serve a core government function. Additionally, SCFC members anticipate hundeds of millions of dollars for pork will be added in the next round of the budget process, and the SCFC plans to cut any of those requests except for those earmarked for first responders or infrastructure repairs.
Convention of States: The False-hope Hucksters
- Details
- By Joe Wolverton, II, J.D. - The New American
There they go again. The latest missive from the Convention of States (COS) echo chamber reeks of recycled rhetoric and shallow sloganeering, wrapped in a false piety toward the Constitution they purport to defend but so plainly misunderstand. Their tired attacks on the John Birch Society — the last line of principled defense against the gutting of our constitutional republic — are not only dishonest, but profoundly dangerous.
Let us dispense with their clumsy propaganda and expose the COS scheme for what it is: a Trojan horse dressed in constitutional garb, promising “reform” while preparing the kindling for a political inferno that could consume the Constitution entirely.
Greenland’s Pro-Business Opposition Wins Election

NUUK, GREENLAND (Worthy News) – Greenland’s pro-business opposition Demokraatit party won Tuesday’s parliamentary election, dominated by U.S. President Donald J. Trump’s pledge to take control of the island, official results show.
The Demokraatit party—the Democrats—and the second-place party, Naleraq—“Point of Orientation—were beating the incumbent left-wing coalition.
Demokraatit, favoring a slow approach to independence from Denmark, secured 29.9 percent of the votes with all ballots counted, up from 9.1 percent in 2021. It was ahead of the opposition Naleraq party, which favors rapid independence, at 24.5 percent.
Trump Urged to Dust Off an Old Weapon and Legislate DOGE Cuts

- By Suzanne Bowdey - The Washington Stand
If you ask House Republicans, the most reviled phrase in leadership’s vocabulary is “continuing resolution.” Nothing seems to raise conservatives’ blood pressure like a CR — mainly because it’s become synonymous with Congress’s perpetual failure to pass a long-term budget. And while there’s certainly grumbling about the idea this time around, House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) may be heading into his seventh government shutdown threat with less resistance from his own party. And another two words explain why: Donald Trump.
Southern Christianity and Slavery

Understanding the Biblical Foundations for Peace
Confederate President Jefferson Davis - (1808-1889).
Biblical Christianity pervaded the Old South perhaps as much as any society in history. Although authentic faith was by no means universal and nominal Christianity and lapsed moral standards were common enough, a genuine Christian faith and Christian worldview permeated and substantially influenced every level of society and almost every institution. In his comprehensive biography of Stonewall Jackson, Southern historian James I. Robertson Jr. emphasized that Jackson could not be understood without understanding his Christian perspective. Neither can the Old South, nor even the modern South, be fully understood without understanding the degree to which Christian faith and worldviews have pervaded its culture and society for more than two centuries.
