Real American Heroes Who Are Almost Forgotten Today - Part 2
- Details
- By W.H. Lamb
In Part 1 of this series, I introduced you to two famous Chiefs of the Northern Cheyenne people, namely “Little Wolf” and “MorningStar”, who was better known by the name he was given by the Sioux people: “Dull Knife”. During the last half of the 19th century, the concept of “Manifest Destiny”, or the expansion of the American experiment from the Atlantic to the Pacific, began to seriously clash with the concept held by most of the Native Peoples, that they had the right to continue to live on their traditional lands as they always had. It became obvious to both sides, as this century unfolded, that one or the other had to emerge victorious, with its vision of the future the only accepted one. As usual in the flow of human history, those with the best technology and the strongest motivations, including using the media to tell their often less than true news, emerged victorious.
Chairman’s Corner: Setting the Record Straight on Public Safety and Fiscal Responsibility
- Details
- By Benton Blount - Chairman of Greenville County Council
Over the last week, you may have seen posts and headlines suggesting that Greenville County Council has failed to prioritize public safety, that we could somehow meet a new $12,000 raise request for every Sheriff’s Office employee “without raising taxes,” and that if we don’t, we’re “defunding the police.”
Let’s take a moment to walk through the facts, calmly, clearly, and transparently.
The 7-Mill Question
Some have claimed that the 7-mill increase passed in 2023 was “for public safety,” and that deputies haven’t seen that money.
Where SC’s Gubernatorial Candidates Stand on Judicial Reform, Taxes, and Spending
- Details
- By Sam Aaron - SC Policy Council
Recently, the South Carolina Policy Council sat down with several of the state’s gubernatorial candidates for in-depth policy discussions. While SCPC does not endorse candidates, we extended an invitation to all who have formally declared their candidacy.
Over the past several election cycles, one thing has become clear: Long-form, open dialogue wins the day. Voters value detailed policy discussions far more than quick sound bites.
That said, these interviews are lengthy, and we understand that not everyone might have the time to watch all of them.
Creationist cosmology - Proposed Structure of the Universe
- Details
- By Charles Creager, Jr.
The Earth is near the center.
One of the requirements of this creationist cosmology is that the Earth is near the center of the universe. Now this is not geocentrism because the universe is not revolving around the Earth; it is merely talking about our physical position. Such an idea, however, is consistent with observation.
It is, however, philosophically repugnant to an atheistic perspective simply because the probability would be way too small. As a result, one of the things that the Big Bang cosmology does is eliminate the idea of a center through what is erroneously called the Copernican Principle. The idea is that the universe is either infinite or that space curves back on itself in such a manner as to prevent there from being a real center. However, it puts any observer as appearing to be in the center.
New Religion Law in Kyrgyzstan Marks the Deterioration of Religious Freedom

- By US Commission on International Religious Freedom
WASHINGTON — The U.S. Commission on International Religious Freedom (USCIRF) released the following report on Kyrgyzstan:
Kyrgyzstan Country Update – In June 2025, a USCIRF delegation traveled to Kyrgyzstan to meet with civil society and government officials to discuss religious freedom conditions, including the passage of the 2025 religion law and amendments to related legislation. These legislative changes expanded the governmental control over the religious space and marked the legal manifestation of the government’s recent efforts to increasingly securitize religion.
‘Why Democrats Are Dangerous’ Exposes the Democratic Party playbook
- Details
- By AuthorHouse Press
Author Drew Baker shines a light on Democratic policies and tactics that imperil America’s future
LANDRUM, S.C. – Drew Baker, in his debut release titled “Why Democrats Are Dangerous” (published by AuthorHouse), delivers a timely and urgent critique of today’s Democratic Party leadership — addressing how it has strayed far from its roots.
Written for students trying to understand politics, Republicans looking for a concise overview, and Democrats beginning to question their leaders, “Why Democrats Are Dangerous” dissects what Baker calls the party’s defining characteristics: ignorance, separation from reality, deceitfulness, ruthlessness, lack of accountability and long-term strategies to seize power. The book starts with a summary of basic conservative thinking about economics, the Constitution, and business — areas where Democrats continually show their ignorance. What follows are quick, easy-to-read descriptions and examples of the dangerous actions, tactics, and strategies that the Democratic Party is trying to employ.
President Trump Announces New Plan to Control Costs of Infertility Treatments
- Details
- By Eagle Forum
One of President Donald Trump’s campaign promises was to lower prescription drug costs for Americans. Drug manufacturers have long overcharged Americans while giving other countries a break. In May, the President signed an executive order to “rebalance a system that allows pharmaceutical manufacturers to offer low prices to other wealthy nations while charging Americans significantly higher prices.” He is signing agreements with drug companies to ensure their products are sold to Medicaid and individual Americans at prices comparable to those paid by other developed nations. The Administration’s most recent announcement involves lowering the costs of in-vitro fertilization (IVF) drugs and deserves a closer look.

Democrats Prioritize Welfare Over National Security

Few speak the truth as clearly and succinctly as House Speaker Mike Johnson.
Appearing on ABC's "This Week" last Sunday, co-host Jonathan Karl challenged the speaker's calling the recent No King rallies "Hate America Rallies," calling them "the modern Democratic Party."
Johnson responded that "there is a rise of Marxism in the Democratic Party ... just look what is happening in New York."
"They are about to elect an open socialist Marxist as mayor of America's largest city."
Pro-Lifers Warn against Abortion Drug Dangers as Pro-Abortion Group Tries to Shield Abortionists
- Details
- By S.A. McCarthy - The Washington Stand
While conservatives are working to re-implement stringent safeguards around the abortion drug, progressives are preparing to make the deadly pill more readily available. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) recently approved a generic brand of the abortion drug mifepristone, shocking supporters of President Donald Trump. On Tuesday night’s episode of “Washington Watch,” Rep. Robert Aderholt (R-Ala.) told Family Research Council President Tony Perkins, “That was very disappointing, I’ll just be honest with you, coming out of the Trump administration.”
Fulton Ballot Hearing Cancelled, Favorito Seeks DOJ Intervention
- Details
- By Righteous PR Agency
ATLANTA — Judge Shukura Ingram abruptly cancelled a Fulton County ballot video hearing Wednesday less than 24 hours before she scheduled it to take place. The hearing on a case she held for over a year, was set last Friday morning less than two days after President Trump publicly stated he wanted to see the Fulton County 2020 votes.
The case alleges that the Fulton County Clerk Che Alexander failed to fulfill 2024 Open Records Requests (ORR) filed by Garland Favorito to obtain a copy of Fulton County 2020 ballots. The ballots were unsealed by court order in 2021. Georgia’s 2-year sealing requirement under O.C.G.A. § 21-2-500 expired in 2022. The Georgia General Assembly passed SB189 legislation in 2024 to continually make ballots public records subject to ORRs.
Mansplaining, Government Style
- Details
- By Lynne M Taylor - American Policy Center
What’s “mansplainin’”?!
Merriam-Webster defines it as a man saying something to a woman in a condescending way1. For our context of this article, manspailin’ is to treat someone like they have no knowledge of the topic, nor could they grasp it anyway.
From what I experienced during an open public meeting where city officials and consultants met, this was the distinct attitude and tones of voices seen, heard and felt..
From my talks with others from across the nations, it seems to have become the way in which our elected officials talk to us and talk about us when they think the public isn’t listening.

- Details
- By Alaina Moore - United Patriots Alliance
Former State Election Director Howard Knapp had a tumultuous career plagued with issues and investigations that we have spent the past three years covering. Little did we know, there was so much more beneath the surface. This is the complete overview of what we know to-date, as this story is still rapidly developing.
On September 17, 2025, South Carolina Elections Director Howard “Howie” Knapp was fired by the commission following a nearly five-hour executive session ending late Wednesday afternoon. The next morning, on September 18th, the State Law Enforcement Division (SLED) showed up to the State Election Commission to “investigate allegations of wiretapping involving former executive director Howard Knapp and deputy director Paige Salonich,” as confirmed by FITSNews.

Private and homeschool parents need to pay attention. You are protecting your children by keeping them out of government schools, but woke tech is also trying to steal their innocence.
Artificial Intelligence (AI), which has invaded government schools, is also posing a threat to homeschoolers and kids in private schools.
AI is everywhere. Most government schools have already morphed into digital-based learning centers, relegating teachers to facilitators, with no improvement in student achievement.

Courageous Christians Share Their Stories at Pray Vote Stand Summit
- Details
- By S.A. McCarthy - The Washington Stand
A handful of bold Christians who have taken a stand for their faith spoke at Family Research Council’s Pray Vote Stand summit on Saturday, during a panel entitled “Profiles in Courage.” FRC President Tony Perkins explained the panel’s purpose, “When men and women like this are attacked for standing for the biblical truth, … what are we to do? Stand with them? Absolutely.” He continued, “Because when we stand with them, guess what? The Left is going to back off, because they’re hoping that we will shrink back into the shadows and will be intimidated because they put their target on individuals like this.” He emphasized, “We should boldly stand with men and women who come under attack for their stand for truth.”
U.S. Tomahawk Missiles and Ukraine
- Details
- By Mike Scruggs
Wonder Weapons or High Risk Futility?
On Friday, October 17, President Trump backed away from Ukrainian President Zelensky’s requests for Tomahawk missiles capable of hitting deep into Russian territory. This was a substantial disappointment not only to Zelensky but also to British, French, and German leaders advocating continued war with Russia. This is despite a July 2025 Gallup poll indicating that 69 percent of Ukrainians want a negotiated end to the war “as soon as possible,” and only 24 precent want to continue the war to “victory.” The latter is down from 73 percent since 2022—a 49 percent drop in enthusiasm for the war.

Creationist Cosmology - Distant Starlight
- Details
- By Charles Creager, Jr.
One of the biggest issues raised about young-earth creation has been seeing distant Starlight. After all, even the nearest stars are light-years distant, and the furthest edges of the universe are 10s of billions of light-years away. Consequently, from a naturalistic perspective in a young universe, light should not have had sufficient time to reach the Earth from anything more than about 6,200 light-years away.
The nature of the distant Starlight problem.

Chairman’s Corner: Why I Voted Against the Fire Services Study
- Details
- By Benton Blount - Chairman of Greenville County Council
This isn’t the first time I’ve been on the minority side of an issue, and it probably won’t be the last. Leadership sometimes means standing your ground, especially when you believe your district’s voice deserves to be heard loud and clear.
I’ve stood in this spot before. When Greater Greenville Sanitation came under scrutiny from state legislators, I fought to protect it, not because of any disagreement with the people involved (many of my political affiliation), but because my District 19 constituents overwhelmingly wanted to keep their sanitation service just as it’s been for decades: local, reliable, and responsive.
That effort wasn’t about defiance, it was about representation. And that same principle guided my decision on the Fire Services Study.
Torture and Ill Treatment are Tools of Violating Religious Freedom
- Details
- By Christian Newswire
WASHINGTON — The U.S. Commission on International Religious Freedom (USCIRF) released the following report on religious freedom and torture:
Religious Freedom and the Prohibition of Torture and Ill Treatment – Governments around the world continue to breach international law by engaging in torture and other cruel, inhuman, or degrading treatment (“ill treatment”) of individuals. In promoting international religious freedom, the U.S. government is required to consider the connection between religious freedom violations and torture. Recognizing how torture and ill treatment can be used to violate religious freedom strengthens both the protection of this right and the right to be free from torture by expanding remedies for victims and increasing state accountability for violations. This factsheet provides an overview of U.S. policy related to this nexus, relevant international human rights standards, and contexts where violations occur concurrently. The factsheet includes case studies highlighting this intersection from countries including Afghanistan, China, Iran, Russia, Saudi Arabia, Sudan, and Turkmenistan.
Creationist Cosmology - Clues from the Bible
- Details
- By Charles Creager, Jr.
The Big Bang cosmology, despite being popular within the general scientific community, and the fact that a catholic priest developed it, is still unbiblical. It is ultimately based on the presumption of absolute naturalism, which at its core is a fundamentally atheistic philosophical position. The one positive thing it did was get the idea of a beginning part of the official cosmology. Even today, atheists in the scientific community seek to find ways around the idea of a beginning, despite the clear evidence of one that has always existed based on the second law of thermodynamics. So, what clues can we actually get from the Bible about cosmology?
Concise Theology in Scripture

“The Heavens Declare the Glory of God…”
The Inspiration and Authority of Scripture
2 Timothy 3:16. “All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting, and training in righteousness.”
Isaiah 40:8. “The grass withers and the flowers fall, but the word of our God stands forever.”
Hebrews 4:12: “For the word of God is living and active, sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing to the division of soul and of spirit, of joints and of marrow, and discerning the thoughts and intentions of the heart.”
Can We Change The History Of Our Future?
- Details
- By W.H. Lamb
“Are these the shadows of the things that will be, or are they shadows of things that may be, only?... Men’s courses will foreshadow certain ends, to which, if persevered in, they must lead. But if the courses be departed from, the ends will change….Say it is thus with what you show me.”
THE SHADOWS OF “WHAT WILL BE”
So said Ebenezer Scrooge to the “Spirit of Christmas Future”, in Charles Dickens’ classic 1843 novel, “A Christmas Carol”, one of his most popular and enduring books, one that pierced the consciences of middle and upper class Victorian England, and forced them to confront how they treated the poor and overworked lower classes, and especially the children of those classes, in a country that changed the world in so many respects, but found it difficult to change how the people of England treated each other at a time when the “Chartist Movement”---a leftist/socialist/Marxist style “people’smovement”, probably organized by descendants of Adam Weishaupt’s Satanic “Order ofIlluminati and/or the French far leftist “Jacobin Movement”, raged throughout portions of Great Britain, and Christianity was still the prevalent religious and societal mandate among the proud middle and snobbish upper classes, at least on the surface.
