Media's Negativity Won't Dampen the American Spirit
- By David Limbaugh
Silver linings accompany most catastrophic events, and one major one with the coronavirus is the remarkable way Americans (and people throughout the world) have come together to fight this outbreak.
Though the stock market has reflected a nation in panic, in other respects Americans, for the most part, have reacted responsibly, unselfishly and cooperatively, and I pray we are making substantial progress toward flattening the growth curve of this virus.
Are Americans All-In for a Long Coronavirus War?
- By Pat Buchanan
"It's a war," says President Donald Trump of his efforts to contain the coronavirus pandemic, and likening his role to that of "wartime president."
New York Governor Andrew Cuomo welcomed the president's claim to his commander in chief role in the crisis and his resolve: "The president and I agreed yesterday... we're fighting the same war -- and this is a war."
Some measures already taken do call to mind actions in wartime.
Senate Tries to Inoculate the Economy
- By Tony Perkins - Family Research Council
If there were ever a time America should be grateful for its businessman-in-chief, it's now. The Left can say what it wants about Donald Trump, but the majority of people staring down this crisis have to take great comfort in the fact that the man at the helm was built to protect this economy. Even today, as the Senate dives into a third wave of relief, his expertise could very well make all the difference.

Crisis Socialism: No Bailouts for Open Borders Globalists!
- By Michelle Malkin
No. No. No. No. No. The answer from the American people across the political spectrum to the airline industry's plea for a $50 billion taxpayer-subsidized bailout in the Age of WuFlu must be "Hell, no!" times 50 billion.
Why should working-class American citizens being laid off from restaurants, bars, grocery stores, ports, gyms, entry-level service jobs and gig economy contracts rescue one of the beltway swamp's most powerful corporate lobbies -- backed by the planet's third-richest mogul, Warren Buffett, whose Berkshire Hathaway multinational holding company owns massive stakes in American Airlines, Delta, Southwest and United?
99 vs l (one!)
- By John H Utz - Greenville SC
Yes, can you imagine such a ratio? That is the ratio of 99 seasonal flu deaths here in So. Carolina so far this season, vs just one (newly reported) death from the coronavirus here in S.C. Yet we hear nothing of the continuing flu deaths; we even have a questionably successful flu vaccine available for years. Statistically, the (seasonal) death total for the U.S. from flu is anywhere between 12,000 and multi 10Ms each year. Yet we hear virtually nothing currently, just be sure 'and get your flu shot!'

Ask Your Senators to Amend the Coronavirus Bill
- By Eagle Forum
Just as panicked Americans were buying up all toilet paper supplies, Congress was sloppily rushing to pass a Coronavirus relief bill. After negotiations between House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Secretary of Treasury Steve Mnuchin, the House passed the bloated Families First Coronavirus Response Act (H.R. 6201). To no surprise, Democrats used this legislation to add long-term provisions that extend the government’s reach into our lives and flush our economy down the toilet.
Trump Quarantines Abortion Money in Virus Bill
- By Tony Perkins - Family Research Council
While lots of Americans are hunkered down at home, the U.S. Senate is holed up in its offices -- waiting for a crack at the House's coronavirus bill. And while there's a lot of uncertainty about what's actually in the package, Republican leaders won't have to contend with at least one thing: abortion funding.
In the Pandemic, It's Every Nation for Itself
- By Pat Buchanan
"The lamps are going out all over Europe, we shall not see them lit again in our life-time," said Foreign Secretary Sir Edward Grey to a friend on the eve of Britain's entry into the First World War.
Observing from afar as the coronavirus pandemic ravages the Old Continent, Grey's words return to mind. And as the Great War changed Europe forever, the COVID-19 pandemic seems to be changing the way European peoples see each other.
Socialism's Past
- By Walter Williams
Senator Bernie Sanders' call for socialism has resonated among many Americans, particularly young Americans. They've fallen prey to the idea of a paradise here on Earth where things are free and there's little want. But socialists never reveal what turns out to be their true agenda. Let's look at the kind of statements they used to gain power. You'll note that all of their slogans before gaining power bore little relation to the facts after they had power.
1996 Pro-Family Values Resolution Overturned by County Council
- By Terry M. Thacker
By a vote of 7-5, Greenville County Council, in a specially called meeting this past Wednesday afternoon, voted in favor a new ordinance that would sunset all resolutions passed before 2016 and that would fix an automatic four-year expiration date on any future resolutions.
This new ordinance was passed with one particular resolution in mind, the 1996 resolution passed by a more conservative council that declared that Greenville County stands for traditional family values and that the gay lifestyle is inconsistent with those values.
Southern Reconstruction 1865-1877
- By Mike Scruggs
The Tyranny and Corruption of the Radical Republicans - Part 1 of a Series
The South was as devastated by the Un-Civil War of 1861 to 1865 as much as any nation in the annals of warfare. By the end of the war, one out of every four white men had been killed or died of wounds or disease. Over 40 percent of private property including homes, businesses, livestock, and crops had been destroyed. In South Carolina, where Sherman’s men had burned the capitol city of Columbia, over 50 percent of private property was destroyed.
“Life Is Hard – It’s Harder If You’re Stupid!"
- By W.H. Lamb
Indeed, life is much harder if you’re stupid (especially if you’re deliberately stupid). True words, uttered by the hard-nosed (but soft hearted) Sergeant Stryker in the great old 1949 film, “Sands of Iwo Jima”, and portrayed so well by John Wayne (1907-1979), one of the most unique actors that American film has ever produced and who, despite his failures and shortcomings, was one of the most sincere patriots our country has ever produced. An iconoclast of leftist/progressive causes, Wayne was a strong supporter (in his later life) of traditional Americanism and the constitutional form of government given to Americans by our Founders, and he became a political conservative, much to the chagrin of the leftist vermin who increasingly dominated Hollywood during most of his career.

White House and Capitol Hill Take Steps to Reverse Corona’s Progress
- By Eagle Forum
Throughout the end of this past legislative week, Eagle Forum tracked the second Coronavirus supplemental’s negotiations on Capitol Hill.

In the meantime, President Trump declared a national emergency and invoked the Stafford Act, a request that came from Washington state’s Governor Jay Inslee, which freed up $42 billion to use against Corona.
Pelosi Uses Virus Bill to Spread Abortion
- By Tony Perkins - Family Research Council
Congress's coronavirus bill was supposed to be about saving lives -- not taking them! But tell that to Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.), who doesn't seem to mind exploiting a global tragedy to help out her pals at Planned Parenthood. Turns out, while Democrats are bashing the president for not working fast enough, they're bogging down the debate with secret language on abortion.

- By Christian Newswire

Action in an Anxious Age
- By Tony Perkins - Family Research Council
There have been a lot of battles in his presidency, but never a faceless foe. For Donald Trump and the rest of the nation, the coronavirus is the enemy no one expected. Staring down a global menace, Michael Goodwin argued, Trump is now, effectively, a wartime president. "And his repeated assurances of victory were music to the ears of a rattled nation."
