Biden Should Declare NATO Membership Closed
- By Pat Buchanan
In 2014, when Russian President Vladimir Putin responded to a U.S.-backed coup that ousted a pro-Russian regime in Kyiv by occupying Crimea, President Barack Obama did nothing.
When Putin aided secessionists in the Donbass in seizing Luhansk and Donetsk, once again, Obama did nothing.
Why did we not come to the military assistance of Ukraine?
Because Ukraine is not a member of NATO. We had no obligation to come to its aid. And to have intervened militarily on the side of Ukraine would have risked a war with Russia we had no desire to fight.
Mark Meckler's COS Board Member Has Written New Constitution Which Transfers Massive Powers to New Fed Gov't & Imposes Gun Control
- By Joanna Martin, J.D., "Publius Huldah"
General George Washington and the Continental Army worked on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day, and so must you.
I can not exaggerate the urgency of our situation. Let me show you why you must do all you can to stop the SC Senate from passing H 3205, Meckler's "COS" application for Congress to call an Article V Convention.
This link (CLICK HERE) is a Flyer from a "BBA" group pushing for an Article V convention - ostensibly for the limited purpose of getting an amendment which requires Congress to "balance the budget". Note that they are now claiming that 33 States have active applications. Only one more State is needed and Congress can call a convention.
Remember US Energy Independence Day?
- By Stephen Moore
Once, during a meeting with then-presidential candidate Donald Trump inside Trump Tower on Fifth Avenue in New York, we discussed energy policy. I told Trump that if we went all out to produce America's abundant supply of oil, gas and coal, the United States could be energy independent in four years.
Trump looked at me from behind his desk and shook his head. "I don't want America to be energy independent. I want America to be energy dominant."
There are few issues where Trump and President Joe Biden have differed more broadly on policy than on energy production. Trump went full speed on fossil fuel production. He lifted drilling restrictions, especially in states such as Alaska and on federal lands in the continental states. He gave the green light to vitally needed pipelines. He blocked new extreme environmental regulations that were intended to choke off our oil and gas supplies. He recognized the shale oil and gas revolution as an unparalleled opportunity to reduce reliance on foreign oil.

What’s on Putin’s Mind?
- By Mike Scruggs
Ultimatums to United States and NATO
On July 12, 2021, Russian Federation President Vladimir Putin published a 6,900-word article in an online Russian government Presidential News Events release entitled “On the Historical Unity of Russians and Ukrainians.”
Russia now has over 120,000 troops on the Ukrainian border and on December 17, the Russian Foreign Ministry gave the U.S. and NATO what are essentially “non-negotiable” ultimatums regarding Ukraine and the provocative anti-Russian NATO membership of 14 East European nations. Sweden and Finland were given stern warnings that joining or aiding NATO could have serious consequences. Talks were held with the U.S. in Geneva on January 10, 2022, and with a gathering of NATO, U.S. and Ukrainian officials in Brussels on January 12. At this point, nothing has been resolved, and Russian news releases are not comforting,
Governor Secretive About $150M ‘Infrastructure’ Program
- By Rick Brundrett - The Nerve
Gov. Henry McMaster wants to more than double the state Department of Commerce’s budget, though neither he nor his Cabinet agency has provided details in official records on a proposed $150 million “infrastructure” program.
McMaster’s requested appropriation for the “Strategic Economic Development Infrastructure” program, which was included in his fiscal 2022-23 state budget version released this week, is $50 million more than what Commerce initially asked for in its budget request presented last fall.
The Secret Betrayal – The Sordid Story Of “Operation Keelhaul” and Gen. Dwight Eisenhower’s Crimes Against – Part 3
- By W.H. Lamb
“’Tis strange, but true; for truth is always strange; Stranger than fiction: if it could be told, How much would novels gain by the exchange! How differently the world would men behold!” - Lord Byron, From his Poem: Don Juan (1823)
How could—why would—a man whom Americans have looked upon as one of their heroes for decades, descend into the ranks of those who turn their faces away from the torments and brutalities that some human beings inflict upon other human beings? Such is the usually unspoken question that has swirled around the life of Dwight Eisenhower (1890-1969), Supreme Commander of the Normandy Invasion of WW11 and later President of the United States. In the first two parts of this article I reviewed the history of the notorious forced repatriation of millions of anti-communist refugees back into their countries of origin (in Russia and much of Central and Eastern Europe), which began even before WW11 ended, and which became known as “Operation Keelhaul”.
“Bipartisan” Group of Lawmakers to Introduce Their Own “Election Reform” Bill
- By Eagle Forum
Yet another troubling election bill has surfaced, but this time it is expected to be introduced by a Republican. Senator Susan Collins (R-ME) recently convened a bipartisan group of lawmakers to discuss election matters. The participants were Sens. Tim Kaine (D-VA), Ron Johnson (R-WI), Steve Daines (R-MT), Kyrsten Sinema (D-AZ), Joe Manchin (D-WV), Thom Tillis (R-NC), Jeanne Shaheen (D-NH), Mitt Romney (R-UT), and Roger Wicker (R-MS). Even though the group was bipartisan there is nothing conservative about the bill. We are disappointed in any Senators that would purport to put conservative fingerprints on a bad bill.

How 'We' Obscure the Truth About Policy
- By Veronique de Rugy
"The most dangerous pronoun discourse has nothing to do with gender identity. It's the undefined 'we' in public policy debates that's the problem." These are the words of Richard Morrison, a research fellow at the Competitive Enterprise Institute. Morrison identified "the fallacy of we," and I'm often guilty of committing it.
I frequently say things like, "If we increase spending on this or that, it will cause some economic distortions." Who exactly is this "we"? Certainly not me or most of you. Politicians propose and vote for additional spending, and the president signs new spending bills into law.
SCOTUS Ends Mandates for U.S. Businesses
- By James Spurck
In a huge blow to President Joe Biden, the U.S. Supreme Court responded to his COVID overreach the way most Americans had hoped: striking down the largest of his vaccine mandates. By a vote of 6-3, the justices agreed that the president had zero authority to demand that employers of 100 or more employees be vaccinated or bear the weight of routine testing.
A Win for Business, A Loss for Healthcare Workers
- By Eagle Forum
Breaking — Today, the Supreme Court struck a blow to the Biden Administration’s two-pronged vaccine mandate affecting American businesses and healthcare workers. In a 6-3 decision, the Court ruled that President Biden lacked the authority to mandate vaccines on businesses with 100 or more employees. Chief Justice Roberts and Justices Alito, Thomas, Kavanaugh, Gorsuch, and Barrett concurred. Justice Stephen Breyer, Sonia Sotomayor, and Elena Kagan dissented.
Biden: Bull Connor's GOP Imperils Democracy
- By Pat Buchanan
"The next few days ... will mark a turning point in this nation's history," said President Joe Biden in his Atlanta speech to reframe the debate in Congress on voting rights legislation and the filibuster.
He went on: "Will we choose democracy over autocracy, light over shadows, justice over injustice? ... I know where I stand. ... I will defend ... our democracy against all enemies -- foreign and, yes, domestic."
And on this issue of light over shadows, good versus evil:
"Where will the institution of the United States Senate stand? ...
After-School Satan Clubs -- The Real Story
- By Child Evangelism Fellowship
WARRENTON, Mo., -- Atheists are at it again, this time in Moline, IL, using a ploy to disrupt schools and prevent the exercise of free speech that involves Christian viewpoint.
In 2001, a Supreme Court ruling, Good News Club v. Milford Central School District, allowed for non-school-sponsored religious clubs to be held on public school property after hours. Good News Club® (operated by Child Evangelism Fellowship®) and other privately sponsored clubs must be given the same access to facilities accorded any other group. Because Good News Clubs can't be shut down legally, opponents use a ploy to alarm parents and school boards.
2021 Saw 'Seismic Global Shift' in Religious Persecution, New Data Suggest
- By Christian Newswire
After Two Decades, North Korea No Longer Considered World's Worst Enemy of Faith; Open Doors USA to Reveal New Top Perpetrator in Religious Persecution at '2022 World Watch List' Press Conference Jan. 19
SANTA ANA, Calif. -- There is a new top perpetrator of religious persecution, according to Open Doors' forthcoming 2022 World Watch List. For the past 20 years, North Korea has appeared at number one on the annual list, which ranks the top 50 countries where it is most difficult and dangerous to be a Christian. However, Open Doors leadership indicates that though North Korea's religious freedom violations have not improved, conditions have significantly worsened elsewhere in the world, causing a shift in ranking.
Chemical Abortions Gain in 2021: Operation Rescue Releases Part Two of Special Report on Abortion Facility Survey Results
- By Operation Rescue
WICHITA, Kan. -- New trends in the business of abortion have been documented through Operation Rescue's exclusive 2021 survey of abortion facilities in the U.S.
"We found that the trend toward the use of chemical abortions expanded in 2021. There was a rise in the number of first trimester abortion facilities to accommodate the increased demand," said Troy Newman, President of Operation Rescue. "Overall, two factors had the most impact on abortion trends in 2021. Those were the passage of the Texas Heartbeat Bill, which prohibits abortions after about six weeks of pregnancy, and the new pro-abortion policies of the current administration, which include the relaxing of Federal regulations on how abortion pills are dispensed."

The View from the Cheat Seats
- By Tony Perkins - Family Research Council
For Joe Biden, the Atlanta speech checked all the boxes: a handful of out-of-context Bible verses (check), wild historical inaccuracies (check), gratuitous references to January 6th (check), the abandonment of another decades-long political view (check), and a general shaming of any American who thinks consensus and honesty ought to be part of our governing structure. Twelve months into this White House, the president's rambling attack on democracy was the move of a desperate man at the head of a desperate party. It was also, as Rich Lowry put it succinctly, garbage.
Life Legal Opposes Pro-abort for FDA Commissioner
- By Life Legal Defense Foundation
WASHINGTON -- Tomorrow at 10am EST, the U.S. Senate will vote on the nomination of Dr. Robert Califf for Commissioner of the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Dr. Califf held this position under Obama and under Califf's leadership, the FDA gutted the safety and reporting restrictions on chemical abortion. During that time, the FDA expanded the use of chemical abortion from 7 weeks gestation to 10 weeks and increased the dosage of abortion-inducing drugs. Califf also authorized eliminating mandated reporting of all complications from chemical abortion except maternal death.
Chemical abortions now account for nearly half of all abortions. Women are now able to obtain chemical abortions without a single in-person consultation and can order the drugs online.

McMaster’s Budget Priority: Expanding Interstates or Fixing Pothole-Riddled Roads?
- By Rick Brundrett - The Nerve
In unveiling his fiscal 2022-23 state budget this week, Gov. Henry McMaster proposed using $660 million in federal coronavirus-relief money to begin construction of Interstate 73 toward Myrtle Beach and widening I-26 between Columbia and Charleston.
McMaster in a letter Monday to lawmakers contended that the federal money combined with nearly $600 million in state surplus funds would allow the S.C. Department of Transportation to “accelerate construction, expansion, or improvements to our State-owned roads, bridges, highways, and interstates.”
Besides the I-73 and I-26 projects, which McMaster publicly announced last year and included in his state budget summary, the governor in his letter Monday also noted widening I-95 in the Lowcountry and additional lane widening of I-85 in the Upstate.
Biden's Lack of Shelf-Respect
- By Tony Perkins - Family Research Council
From filet mignon to rapid tests. If you ask local grocers, that's the story of 2022 -- empty shelves, frustrated customers, record-high sick days, and a host of other problems they pin directly on the government. Two weeks ago, the best-selling item at New England's Stew Leonard's supermarket was steak. Now, the owner says, his truckers are in loading-dock bidding wars over COVID tests. Welcome to the alternate universe of the Biden administration, where we've beaten the virus, the CDC is above politics, and our supply chain crises never happened.
“Defeat the Mandates” Rally to Take Place in DC
- By Veronika Kyrylenko - The New American
No to Vaccine Mandates.
No to Vaccine Passports.
No to Vaccinating Healthy Children.
No to Censorship.
No to Limits on Reasonable Debate.
So say the organizers of the “Defeat the Mandates. American Homecoming” rally against the COVID-19 vax mandates that will take place in the nation’s capital on January 23.
Speaking on “The Joe Rogan Experience” podcast late last month, mRNA vaccine architect Dr. Robert Malone explained the purpose of the rally,
“This is not about being anti-vaccines; it’s about being anti-mandates, and our hope is that we bring people together. People from every walk of life, every party, every religion, every ethnic background … The thing that we can agree on is personal liberty and the right of people to make their own choice.”
Senate Voting on Federal Takeover of Elections
- By Eagle Forum
House and Senate Democrats keep failing at passing their number one priority: a federal overtake of elections. Yet, Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer wants to put it on the floor next week for a vote.
Schumer has an arsenal of election bills to offer. The House has passed the For the People Act (H.R. 1) and the John R. Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act (H.R. 4). The Senate has introduced a companion bill to H.R. 1 (S. 1) and the Freedom to Vote Act (S.2747) also known as the “Manchin Compromise.” These bills include provisions that censor political speech, gives taxpayer money to candidates you may not support, mandates same-day voter registration and ballot harvesting, and allows criminals and illegal immigrants to vote.
Arsonists Attack 'Church of Compassion' in Chernobyl Fallout Zone
- By Slavic Gospel Association (SGA)
U.S. ministry Slavic Gospel Association rushes to aid only church 'for miles' on edge of nuclear wasteland
The only church in the village of Mlachivka – on the edge of the Chernobyl radiation "exclusion zone" – was badly damaged by fire on Jan. 6, Christmas Eve in the region's Russian Orthodox calendar. Evidence at the scene shows arson as the cause.
The church – the only evangelical congregation for miles – is a unique place of hope and help for children living on the doorstep of a toxic wasteland, the result of the world's worst ever nuclear disaster more than three decades ago.
"This little church is a major compassion haven for so many children in a very dark place," said Michael Johnson, president of Illinois-based Slavic Gospel Association (SGA, www.sga.org), who has traveled to the area many times.
"Most of these children are from dysfunctional homes with alcoholic parents. Domestic violence is common. Pastor Nikolai's church is a unique place where they feel loved, safe, and cared for," said Johnson, who announced SGA would be helping the church rebuild.

Open Borders = Election Sabotage
- By Michelle Malkin
"Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to wreck America's election integrity."
Yes, my friends, it's time to change the (in)famous phrase at the base of the Statue of Liberty. Open borders are not just a recipe for replacing native-born workers with cheap foreign labor and trading assimilation for multicultural militancy. They're about undermining the historic nation through devalued citizenship and sabotage of the precious right to vote.
Over the weekend, New York City's Democrat mayor Eric Adams threw his support to a City Council-approved measure to allow an estimated 800,000 local noncitizens to participate in local elections. The newly minted voters would include green-card holders, temporary visa holders, including H-1B workers mostly from China and India, F-1/Optional Practical Training foreign university students with employment authorization, and potentially unknown masses of illegal alien so-called Dreamers.
