Remembering Ernie Pyle (A Man of Whom Most Have Never Heard)
- By W.H. Lamb
As I recall, April 12, 1945 was a mild and sunny day in the west side suburb of Cleveland, Ohio where I lived in those long-gone days. World War 11 (that’s “2” for those of you who are Roman numeral “impaired”) was still raging across the Pacific region of the world, even while it appeared to have almost ended in Europe. I was a typical almost nine-year-old in those wonderful times, outside most of the day (except during the coldest days of winter), playing baseball almost every day during the summer, riding my bike, and interacting with my neighborhood “gang” of six or eight preteen guys just like me. If you’ve ever seen that great film, “A Christmas Story”, you’ll know exactly how much of my childhood was spent. Exactly! The author of that book could have been a member of my “gang”. (And yes, I DID drink “Ovaltine”, I DID listen to ‘Little Orphan Annie” on the radio, and I DID have one of her “decoder rings”.)
China’s Plan to Defeat America
- By Mike Scruggs
Ominous Threats to Peace and Freedom
Keep America Free!
- By Frank Raddish - Founder/Director Capitol Hill Independent Baptist Ministries
Joe Biden, during his Easter address, was too cowardly to acknowledge the resurrection of Jesus Christ, because he was afraid to offend the false religions in this country. He has on more than one occasion defended the wicked religion of Islam. Sad to say, we have two radical Muslim reprobates serving in Congress that the Democrats protect at every turn. These two women should have already been charged by the Ethics Committee for their racist, anti-Semitic remarks and removed from their committee assignments. President Donald Trump, on the other hand highly recognized the Lord Jesus both on Resurrection Day and Christmas. He returned America to honoring the God of heaven and earth as our forefathers once did.
Biden’s Bridges to Nowhere
- By Eagle Forum
Recently, President Biden rolled out his American Jobs Plan, also known as his infrastructure plan. However, there was one glaring thing missing: infrastructure. Instead, he focused on policies that allow the federal government to encroach on our lives, depress the economy, and make the job-creators pay for it.
Libs' Infrastructure: a Bridge to Nowhere
- By Tony Perkins - Family Research Council
If arts funding is "COVID relief," then it's no surprise that child care is "infrastructure." In the Democrats' lexicon -- where abortion is "health care," election reform is "racism," and social justice is a "public works" project -- the fact that Joe Biden is trying to reimagine another word to fit his agenda is just par for their delusional course. The Left played this same trick on the American people in February, Cameron Hilditch warns, shoe-horning every radical priority under the sun into "coronavirus response." Politically, it's very "clever," he agrees. Practically, it shouldn't stand a chance.
NGU, Spartanburg Christian Academy Announce Dual Credit Partnership
- By LaVerne Howell - NGU

Changing Republican Customs and Traditions
- By Michael LaPierre
What do DrewMcKissick’s NEWSMAX article and outgoing GCGOP Chairman Nate Leupp’s “MESSAGE FROM CHAIRMAN LEUPP” have in common? Thereis not one mention of the Creator, Sustainer, and Governor of the nations. Botharticles are filled with self-adulation and self-promotion. There is not even aceremonial “Deus ex machina.” Jesus Christ our Lord and God Almighty are not evenmentioned. In my opinion, that is NOT the type of leadership that we need in Greenville(District 4) or in South Carolina.

Senator: Lawmakers Left Out of Loop on Leatherman’s $550M Bond Proposal
- By Rick Brundrett - The Nerve
Claiming that many lawmakers had little or no notice of a $550 million taxpayer-backed bond plan for projects at the Port of Charleston, a senator has proposed expanding the Ports Authority governing board to include the heads of the state Commerce and Transportation departments.
Besides making Commerce secretary Bobby Hitt and DOT secretary Christy Hall voting members of the current nine-member Ports Authority Board of Directors, the bill, sponsored by Sen. Sandy Senn, R-Charleston, would allow the two agency heads to attend closed board sessions.
Voter ID Denial, Slavery and Abortion Are Identity Theft
- By Alveda King
In the 20th century and during the days of slavery in the 19th century and the 18th century, slaves and indentured Blacks were robbed of precious identities.
Today, when you say to me as a citizen of the United States of America, "You don't need to have an ID to vote," you are saying to me, your identity does not matter. You don't need to know who you are, just show up, vote my agenda, and I will stir your emotions, your fear, keep you in the dark, and continue to suppress your civil rights. I will call the privilege of your having ID and knowing who you are 'voter suppression.'"
Bob Jones University to Display Pinwheel Garden
- By Randy Page - BJU
Bob Jones University, in partnership with the Children’s Trust of South Carolina, will display a pinwheel garden at the main entrance to the campus during the month of April in honor of Child Abuse Awareness Month.
Since 2008, the bright blue pinwheel has served as the national symbol of child abuse prevention as it symbolizes a carefree and vibrant childhood–something every child deserves. This is the fifth year BJU has participated in this nationwide event.
SALTY SEZ – Vacant Pews
- By Ray Simmons
Some of us may remember Dr. Francis A. Schaeffer publishing a book titled “A Christian Manifesto” around 1982, perhaps to point out the great differences between Christianity and Humanism as presented in the Humanist Manifesto. He literally began by pointing out many of the problems he had observed in the western-culture’s churches. An early comment was “Christians, in the last 80 years or so, have only been seeing things as bits and pieces which have gradually begun to trouble them … he goes on to say we are missing the whole thing if we do not recognize these bits and pieces as a shift taking us from a Judeo-Christian World View to a Humanistic World View. He continues by defining Humanism as; “the man is the measure of all things.” (Sounds much like the culture we find in America today.)
Goodbye to My Brother -- for Now
- By David Limbaugh
Losing Rush has been tough. Until a few very long weeks ago, he was always in my life. Like other siblings growing up in the same home, we shared experiences that were exclusive to us. Our parents instilled in us -- and we thoroughly absorbed -- their Christian values: their love of God; their unconditional love for each other and for us; their belief in moral absolutes, of truth, of right and wrong; the paramount importance of family; the critical necessity of personal character and integrity; the value of human life; and the uncompromising duty to treat others with respect and compassion. No one perfectly succeeds in living out these godly values, but our parents equipped us, lovingly disciplined us and guided us.
Vaccine Patriotism vs. Vaccine Globalism
- By Pat Buchanan
When the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines first proved their efficacy, preventing nearly 95% of coronavirus infections in those who got the shots in test trails, a vexing issue immediately arose.
Who should get priority in receiving these life-saving shots?
Generally speaking, the answer, while differing slightly from state to state, was that those most vulnerable to the virus, and those most vital to battling it, should be inoculated first.
What Happened to Biden's Unity Agenda?
- By Neil Patel
Less than three months ago, President Joe Biden stood in front of the U.S. Capitol in the wake of the Jan. 6 riots and delivered his inaugural address. He called for unity, and Americans who see a politically fractured country welcomed it. He could have then put together an agenda that would have accomplished many of his goals while also helping heal the country. On COVID-19, infrastructure and other matters, there was a road to garnering massive bipartisan support. We focus a lot on disagreements, but in each of these areas, average citizens share a broad consensus that Biden could have reached.
No Wall = Free Pass
- By Eagle Forum
For four years, President Donald Trump used every tactic he could to stop the massive amounts of immigrants flooding into the United States. He instituted policies that ended chain migration, funded border wall construction, banned entries from terrorist-sponsored countries, and forced Mexico to be responsible for immigrants traveling across their country. When Democrats used the Obama-created family separation at the border policy as a smear campaign against the Trump administration, President Trump led efforts allowing families to stay together. Now, President Biden has reversed the successful policies that Trump created and — surprise, surprise! — has a crisis on his hands.
Stanton Public Policy Center Warns that Pregnancy Resource Centers and Life-affirming Clinics are at Risk Under President Biden and HHS Secretary Becerra
- By Stanton Public Policy Center
WASHINGTON -- Stanton believes it is critical for the over 3,000 pregnancy resource centers and life-affirming clinics in the United States to publicly reject and refuse to comply with any proposed HHS regulations under Secretary Becerra which would call for abortion referrals, advertising or promotion.
Stanton Public Policy Center is a women's advocacy and educational group that works on issues of human rights and justice which empower and inspire women. It is affiliated with Stanton Healthcare which has life-affirming women's health clinics in America and internationally.

McMaster Receives Gifts Totaling Tens of Thousands of Dollars
- By Rick Brundrett - The Nerve
Over the past four years as South Carolina’s governor, Henry McMaster received a total of more than $87,000 in gifts, The Nerve found in a review of his annual income-disclosure reports.
Of the $87,695 in freebies, $24,679, or 28%, came from the Washington, D.C.-based Republican Governors Association (RGA), mainly for flights, hotel accommodations and meals, according to McMaster’ annual statements of economic interests (SEIs) filed with the State Ethics Commission.
Coke Gets a Kick in the Can from Consumers
- By Tony Perkins - Family Research Council
A week into the fiasco over Georgia's election law, most Americans want to know: just who are these woke CEOs listening to? Not to their shareholders, who can't make a profit when their companies alienate half of the country. Not to lawyers or legislators, who could set them straight on what the policy actually does. And certainly not to U.S. consumers, who are sending a resounding message that they're done with businesses who can't check their radicalism at the door long enough to read a 98-page piece of legislation.
Open Letter to MLB Commissioner from Catholic League President, Bill Donohue
- By Bill Donohue - Catholic League for Religious and Civil Rights
Dear Commissioner Manfred:
As president of the nation's largest Catholic civil rights organization, I would like to commend you for your new-found interest in policing human rights in the United States. While your objections to the voting reform law in Georgia are baseless, let's assume nonetheless that you have a genuine interest in alleged violations of human rights.
However, if that is the case, why did MLB just renew its contract with Tencent, the Chinese company with close ties to the Communist Party?

CANCELING Cancel Culture
- By Selwyn Duke - The New American
The Left’s strategy in its political war is to win the culture war — by belittling opposing viewpoints and personages to the point of removing economic opportunity and displacing them.
In 212 B.C., 460 scholars were “canceled,” permanently, when Emperor Qin Shi Huang had them buried alive for owning forbidden books. The Qin, who’d united China, made the argument, “We don’t want to hear people criticize the present by referring to the past,” Harvard University Chinese history professor Peter Bol told the BBC in 2012. “The past is irrelevant. History is irrelevant. And so you have the burning of books, you have the burying of scholars, of scholarly critics.”
Silicon Valley's Smuggling Apps
- By Michelle Malkin
The mainstream media is slowly catching on to the "Open Borders, Inc." racket. Just this week, NBC News reported that smugglers are using Facebook to advertise their services in violation of Facebook's policy ban on human exploitation and trafficking. The news network appears shocked, shocked, shocked that coordinated illegal activity is booming on Facebook -- one of the world's biggest and most influential globalist platforms.
MLB Can't Lay a Glove on Georgia
- By Tony Perkins - Family Research Council
If the Left wanted to make an example out of Georgia, they succeeded -- just not the way they intended. Five days into the Democrats' election law hysteria, Governor Brian Kemp's (R-Ga.) grit is winning the messaging war and inspiring millions of incensed Americans to start fighting right along with him. After months of conditioning corporations to do their radical bidding, Joe Biden, Stacey Abrams, and their co-conspiring CEOs have finally overplayed their hand. The pack of lies they tried to pass off about Georgia's voting reforms is coming back to bite them. And the blowback for baseball is just the beginning.
