Congress Ignores Pressing National Business While It Obsesses on Jan. 6
- By Star Parker
As the House Select Committee to Investigate the Jan, 6 Attack on the United States Capitol starts public hearings, we must ask what motivates those on the committee.
Is the sole concern the ideals of the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution of the United States? Or is it to get media to attack and undermine political opponents?
It is indeed possible that infractions of law can be investigated without a carnival platform designed to mobilize media and national attention.
Beware: 100% Green Energy Could Destroy the Planet
- By Stephen Moore
The untold story about "green energy" is that it can't possibly be scaled up to provide anywhere near the energy to replace fossil fuels. (Unless we are headed back to the stone ages, which is what some of the "de-growth" advocates favor).
Right now, the United States gets about 70% of its energy from fossil fuels. To go to zero over the next 20 years would be economically catastrophic and cost tens of millions of jobs. With gas prices at nearly double their price back from when Donald Trump left office and inflation up from 1.5% to 8% in just 15 months, we are already experiencing the economic damage from the green energy crusaders.
Nigerian Christians: Muslim Extremists 'Hunting and Killing Us' Daily
- By Ben Johnson - The Washington Stand
On Pentecost Sunday in Abuja, Nigeria, four gunmen stormed a Catholic Church during mass, massacring at least 50 worshippers in one of the most brutal rampages of the year. As word of the attack spread, so too did outrage that the violence in this African nation continues on.
While Christians have been routinely targeted by Nigeria’s Islamic extremists, this latest slaughter — in the country’s relatively peaceful southwest — is sounding new alarms. “It is a black Sunday in Owo,” Ondo’s governor, Arakunrin Akeredolu, said, condemning a “vile and satanic attack” against people “who have enjoyed relative peace over the years.”

New Biden Rule Will Force Schools, Universities to Adopt Radical "LGBT" Policies
- By The John Birch Society
URGENT: The Biden administration has announced a rule forcing schools and universities nationwide to adopt radical LGBT policies in order to receive billions of dollars in federal funding, and to participate in federal programs such as one offering free lunches for low-income students.
This illustrates the danger of any government involvement in education, especially at the federal level. In addition to getting our kids out of the public school system, urge your U.S. representative and senators to get the federal government out of education, including by abolishing the Department of Education!
Members of Congress are seeking to pass legislation to terminate the unconstitutional and Deep State-controlled Department of Education (DoE).

Federal Agencies Celebrate Pride, Ignore Memorial Day
- By Suzanne Bowdey - The Washington Stand
If you’re wondering where America’s heroes rank on Joe Biden’s list of priorities, try below the rainbow flag. While federal agencies have been tripping over themselves to pledge allegiance to LGBT activism, two couldn’t be bothered to recognize the fallen troops who make our freedom possible. Despite a government-wide tweet-fest over Pride Month, the Departments of Justice and Treasury managed to ignore Memorial Day altogether.
Thanks to social media, Americans are getting a good look at the main obsession of this administration, which has devoted more than 30 posts to LGBT extremism from their official accounts — but couldn’t spare half that attention to the men and women who gave all. Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen, who was probably too busy promoting abortion as the solution to our tanking economy, failed to mark either occasion. U.S. Attorney General Merrick Garland’s team, on the other hand, showed complete disregard for our military by celebrating pride but overlooking Americans’ ultimate sacrifice.

Marijuana, Mental Illness, and Deadly Violence
- By Mike Scruggs
Irresponsible Liberal Politics Multiplying Disaster
In the last several days beginning May 31, both Tucker Carlson and Laura Ingraham on Fox News have featured expert testimony on the link between marijuana, psychosis, and violent behavior. Mass shootings at schools, churches, and other venues seem to be epidemic.
Ingraham suggested that the terrible shooting tragedies in Uvalde, Texas, and Buffalo, New York, might be explained by marijuana-induced mental illness, which has a frequent pattern of deadly violence. Ingraham may have had some specific information on this, but this has not yet been firmly established. But the tremendous stir in the mainstream liberal media over her remarks suggests a coordinated coverup. Following the May 31 program by Ingraham, the internet attacks against her were a hurricane of derogatory insults and arrogant dismissals of any implication that marijuana might in any way be an underlying factor in these shootings. Their very intensity indicated a strong vested interest in the profitable expansion of the marijuana industry, especially “recreational” marijuana.
United Patriots Alliance Holds Candidates Forum
- By Terry M. Thacker
About 200 conservative voters came out to Burnsville Baptist Church on Reidville Road Thursday evening to hear from several Greenville and Spartanburg County Council candidates. A few Republican candidates for various statewide races also spoke.
Greenville District 17 incumbent Joe Dill, District 19 candidate Benton Blount, District 23 candidate Ben Carper and District 26 candidate Rick Bradley shared the platform with Spartanburg candidates Louis Nespeca (District 5), Jeff Horton (District 5), Jack Mabry (District 2), Jessica Coker (District 6) and Alex Turner (District 6).
Life Legal Urges Supreme Court to Overturn Forced Speech Case
- By Life Legal Defense Foundation
WASHINGTON -- Life Legal submitted a "friend of the Court" or amicus brief today on behalf of Lorie Smith, a Colorado graphic artist and website designer who wants to design wedding websites, but is afraid she will be forced to provide her services to same sex couples. Colorado's Anti-Discrimination Act (CADA) prohibits businesses from refusing to provide goods and services based on a customer's identity, including sexual orientation. Smith challenged the law in federal court and lost when the Tenth Circuit Court of Appeals held that Smith's First Amendment rights were trumped by Colorado's "compelling interest" in protecting the dignity of marginalized groups and allowing them access to Smith's unique talents.
WHO Power Grab Stumbles
- By Eagle Forum
Last month, Eagle Forum reported on a recent World Health Organization (WHO) meeting. The meeting’s business included consideration concerning amendments to the WHO’s International Health Regulations.
WHAT THE AMENDMENTS WILL DO
These proposed amendments are written to strengthen the organization’s ability to unilaterally intervene in the affairs of nations merely suspected of having a “health emergency” of possible concern to other nations. If these amendments are approved, the WHO will have the power to declare an “international health emergency,” nullifying the powers of nation-states. The U.S. amendments delete a critical existing restriction in the regulations: “WHO shall consult with and attempt to obtain verification from the State Party in whose territory the event is allegedly occurring…” This enables the Director-General to declare health emergencies at will and can be used to justify ostracism and economic or financial actions against the targeted nation by other nations aligned with WHO or who wish to harm and control the accused nation.
It's Time To Move Past the Gun Control Debate Loop
- By Neil Patel
It's almost impossible to think of anything as horrifying as a group of innocent young kids gunned down by a madman in their classroom. Just imagining the terror those kids faced is enough to break even the hardest of hearts. That's the horror America is wrestling with today. What to do about it is a harder question.
Many turn immediately to gun control. The problem is there are few if any gun control measures that would likely help very much. America already has more guns than people. Someone who wants one will find one. New laws will not deter those already committed to breaking the law.
Memories Should Never Fade Away
- By W.H. Lamb
We all have them—memories, that is. Inevitably, some of them may fade with the passing of the years because nature is often cruel as our brain cells succumb to time’s attacks. But many of our precious recollections of the past stay with us for a lifetime. This truth was emphasized to me several years ago when, on a local radio station, I listened to what I believe to be one of the most beautiful and haunting secular songs I’ve ever heard. It brought tears to my eyes then, not so much for any memories it stirred in me, sad to say, but for the depth of emotion projected by the man who was singing it. His name is John McDermott, and he was the founder of the famous singing group known as “The Irish Tenors”. I urge you to enter “John McDermott UTube” on your browser, and click on the video of his performance of “The Old Man”, a beautiful song he sang in memory of his late father. You will see, and hear, a truly special performance, I assure you. It still brings tears to my eyes whenever I watch it, as it brought tears to McDermott’s eyes as he sang it. (Look for the version where John is sitting while he sings, and is holding his late father’s walking stick and cap).
US and Ukraine, Goals in Conflict
- By Pat Buchanan
Among the nations aiding Ukraine in its resistance to the Russian invasion, America has been foremost. Yet the war interests of our two nations are not identical.
To the U.S., the imperative is that the war be contained, not expanded, and that we not be drawn into a wider war with Russia.
For the independence, territorial integrity and democratic rule of Ukraine, while championed by the U.S., are not vital U.S. interests. None of them justifies a war with Russia that could imperil the security and, if it escalated to nuclear weapons, the very survival of our country.
After Disney, Will CEOs Think Twice about Pride Month?
- By Suzanne Bowdey - The Washington Stand
It might seem like every other June 1, but inside corporate board rooms, this Pride Month feels different. Companies aren’t coasting into this rainbow bonanza like past years — empowered and carefree. They’re looking in the rearview mirror at a 2022 that’s been anything but kind to their CEOs’ woke causes. After the uprising against Disney, State Farm, Starbucks, and Target, the question on most businesses’ minds has to be: Will Pride come before the profits fall?
For most Americans, even the sympathetic ones, June comes with its share of irritation. You can’t log on to social media, shop for groceries, turn on the TV, or even buy a Crunchwrap Supreme without being hit over the head with LGBT propaganda. At the San Antonio Zoo, there’s a Night Out at the Zoo celebrating the LGBTQIA+ community. At Taco Bell, there’s a drag brunch. At the Detroit Tigers, there’s free transgender surgery for kids if you support the right organizations at checkout.

“2000 Mules” Full of Must-See Surprises
- By Ed Hiserodt - The New American
Dinesh D’Souza’s 2000 Mules documentary is debuting this week in hundreds of cities nationwide. I like D’Souza largely because of his up-from-poverty background and his aggressive fight for liberty.
However, I had no great expectations of the film, imagining a rehash of election irregularities already aired on Fox News — poll watchers kept 60 feet away in Philadelphia while cardboard was placed over windows to block their view, shifts of ballot counters that closed down for the night only to open within a half hour with no supervision but lots of new ballot boxes.
Other instances involved people dismayed to find, after standing in long lines to vote, that they had already voted. My favorite foible occurred, I think, in Georgia. It involved the ballot counter who ran the same ballots through the tallying machine multiple times. That must have been a good batch for her candidate.
NGU Cuts Online Tuition Against the Backdrop of Raging Inflation
- By LaVerne Howell - NGU
While the cost of goods and services continue to rise, North Greenville University (NGU) is making it easier for adult learners to complete their degree, earn a second degree, or pursue skills needed for a new career path during these trying times.
Inflation is causing consumers to pull back spending on some items as they look to cut expenses. This shift will have significant consequences for the next phase of America's recovery from the pandemic.
This fall, NGU will offer some relief for families by reducing online tuition costs from $450 to $395 per credit hour in all online bachelor's degree programs.
Activists Demand Abortion for All While Ignoring Trauma to Women
- By Flood Water Productions
BOLIVAR, Mo., June 1, 2022 -- "I believe that my story is one that can save even though I can't save my child, and every day I wish that I could," said Angel about aborting her baby years ago. "Every year on what I believe would have been her birthday or holidays or whatever it might be, I imagine what she might look like or how she would sound. Or the things we would have done together or the memories we would have made. That is something I will never escape."
"We know that women who have had an abortion are six times more likely to commit suicide," said Abby Johnson, speaking at the 13th annual Midwest March for Life. Johnson is the founder of And Then There Were None. Her life story was the basis for her autobiography and the movie "Unplanned."

American Life League's New Interim Director of STOPP International Brings Impeccable Pro-Life Credentials
FREDERICKSBURG, Va. -- American Life League's newly named Interim Director of STOPP International was once "a card-carrying member" of the feminist, abortion promotion group, NOW. Rita Diller openly admits that was a long time ago. Diller, often referred to as a "pro-life hero," now has almost four decades of advocacy for the sanctity of human life behind her. STOPP International is American Life League's initiative dedicated to educating people about Planned Parenthood's culture of death and shutting down its facilities.

PURCELLVILLE, Va. -- The Parental Rights Foundation, working with Heart and Mind Strategies, recently asked the following question of a national audience: "In general, parents have the constitutional right to make decisions for their children without government interference unless there is proof of abuse or neglect. Do you agree or disagree with this view of parental rights?"
Overall, 83% of Americans agree with the statement above, and 51% strongly agree, according to the survey. Only 10% disagree, with just 3% strongly disagreeing. And only 6% are not sure.
20 Years: The Murder of LA Sheriff's Deputy David March
- By Michelle Malkin
Two decades ago this spring, I was furiously pounding out the manuscript to "Invasion," my very first book on the systemic failures of immigration enforcement in America. On April 29, 2002, as if to underscore the bloody consequences of open borders that I had been compiling, a violent illegal alien repeat criminal offender named Jorge Arroyo (aka Armando) Garcia assassinated Los Angeles County Sheriff's Deputy David March during a routine traffic stop in Irwindale, California.
The Times Examiner Mourns Its Matriarch
- By The Times Examiner
The Times Examiner is sad to report that its biggest supporter LaVerle Griffin Dill, 88, passed away May 28, 2022, at her home.
LaVerle was not only the Office Manager of The Times Examiner, but she was also its birthing mother alongside her husband and Publisher Colonel Bob M. Dill. Her warm greeting and lovely smile greeted visitors as they entered The Times Examiner. You could not get to anyone in the office without passing her office laced with Beanie Babies, goodies, and her approval. She was The Times Examiner's and her husband's biggest supporter.
She called The Times Examiner her greatest ministry alongside her husband and all those who were involved from the staff to its volunteers, and right down to its readers, even its enemies. To her, it was a calling and a duty even when it was tiresome with its struggles, time-consuming late nights, and sacrifice. She and her husband Bob Dill were more dedicated to the calling than anyone involved. It was their baby and God blessed it as such.
