Masters of Seduction, an Introduction
- Details
- By Kathleen Marquardt - American Policy Center
For decades many of us have been trying to wake the public up to the machinations of a plethora of our leaders working toward a one-world order controlled by the rich and powerful, to be structured on Marxism/communism.
Understand that for many years, there were dedicated citizens who tried to expose the dangers of the push for communist/Marxist world control. Those on the side of free -market, laissez-faire capitalism, property rights, personal freedoms were ridiculed, blackmailed, and otherwise treated like scum of the earth – so no “civilized” person would be silly enough to believe in their foolish statements against the United Nations, the World Bank, or even Greenpeace. Face it, General McArthur, Joseph McCarthy, General Benton Partin, Paul Harvey were the kind of leaders our great forefathers had been who wrote the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution. But these more recent were vilified and driven out of “the right” society.

Utah board member’s blunt message to parents: Get your kids out of ‘broken, corrupt’ system
- Details
- By USPIE
USPIE’s new report, ‘Are Government Schools Redeemable?’ explains why government schools are irredeemable and why parents must get their children out — now
A member of the Utah State Board of Education (USBE) issued a scathing X post on January 2, warning parents to get their kids out of the state’s government schools.
Christina Boggess called the Utah education establishment “a broken, corrupt, and morally bankrupt system that no longer serves the children or families of this state.” She issued a “blunt and urgent” message to parents to “get your children out of Utah’s government schools as quickly as possible,” because “real change is not coming,” according to the Daily Caller.

Compromise Reached, But Public Trust Remains Unsettled After County Administrator Vote
- Details
- By James Spurck, Publisher
The Contract Is Signed. Trust Is Not.
After multiple meetings and two separate votes, one issue is dominating Greenville County’s political conversation: the County Administrator’s employment contract.
Recently, Greenville County Council finalized an 18-month contract extension for County Administrator Joe Kernell. It was a decision that has left many county citizens frustrated, skeptical, and questioning whether the new council elected in 2024 is delivering the change voters expected.
With the contract signed, the public’s mistrust of the County Administrator is now spilling over onto the new council members.
It appears that inside the council chambers, however, the decision was not as simple as “renew or remove.” What emerged was a compromise — one that supporters say creates stability and a path forward, while critics argue it perpetuates a status quo the public no longer trusts.

Murrell Smith, Speaker of the South Carolina House of Representatives, addressed the First Monday Club this past Monday. First Monday is a Republican group that hosts political and governmental speakers at their monthly luncheons.
Smith was there to inform the attendees about what to expect in the legislative session that is about to begin.

Petitions, Protests, and Power Bills: Spartanburg Faces Data Center Debacle

- By Palmetto State Watch Foundation
As South Carolina continues to be flooded with data center proposals, Spartanburg County citizens have decided to push back. Following a heated county council meeting, a petition has sparked renewed scrutiny over how these facilities are approved, who benefits from them, and who bears the costs. At the center of the debate are familiar questions that this outlet raised just last month: taxpayer-subsidized infrastructure, rising utility demands, and the issue of local government spending taxpayer money to raise the costs of utilities on said taxpayers.

Congress Votes to Deregulate Showerheads While HHS Implements New Nutrition Guidelines

Getting Cleaner Inside & Out
What do showerheads and food pyramids have in common? Both have been hot topics of conversation this week in Washington, D.C., and both are about getting cleaner — and leaner! The federal government has been put on a diet. For the last year, the Trump administration has shrunk the size and scope of the bloated bureaucracy. President Donald Trump promised on his campaign trail to scrap ten regulations for every one that he proposed. Not only did he keep that promise, but the Administration also exceeded his goal. The Office of Management and Budget (OMB) recently reported that the Trump administration eliminated 646 regulations while implementing only 5 new regulations (a 129-to-1 ratio). In doing so, the federal government has saved $211.8 billion, resulting in $600 savings per American.
Do ERVs Prove Common Descent?
- Details
- By Charles Creager, Jr.
ERVs are probably the best argument that evolutionists have for universal common descent. After all, at least on the surface, it makes sense that the only way that different organisms could share the same viruses in the same location would be by common descent. However, a close look at this claim shows that it does not really work for several reasons. One of which is that it would make more sense if these genetic elements were non-functional, but not only are these segments of DNA functional, but they often perform important functions, including cellular immunity from viruses.

Second Floor Lobby – South Carolina Capitol
COLUMBIA, S.C. – ADF Action and Palmetto Family Alliance are hosting a press conference on Wednesday, January 14, at 9:45 a.m. in the second-floor lobby of the South Carolina Capitol featuring legislative leaders expressing their support of laws that recognize the biological differences between females and males and protect the privacy, safety, and dignity of women and girls. It’s a lie that a man can be a woman, and that’s why men don’t belong in women’s showers, restrooms, locker rooms, or overnight accommodations. Women shouldn’t have to give up their privacy, safety, and dignity to validate someone else’s subjective perception of their identity.
Rubio to Meet Danish Officials as Trump Presses Greenland Acquisition for U.S. Security

(Worthy News) – U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio is scheduled to meet with Danish officials next week amid renewed insistence from President Donald Trump that the United States must acquire Greenland to protect American national security interests in the Arctic.
Rubio confirmed Wednesday that discussions with Danish leaders would include Greenland, while Denmark’s defense minister, Troels Lund Poulsen, welcomed the talks as an opportunity to move the debate out of the media spotlight and into direct diplomatic channels.
Ukrainian Intelligence and the Ukraine War

Understanding the War of Disinformation Propaganda
On January 2, 2026, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky appointed Lt. General Kyrylo Budanov to the position of Head of the Office of the President of Ukraine, replacing Andriy Yermak. Yermak had held the office since 2020, until resigning in November 2025 under suspicions of corruption. The office is considered the most powerful in Ukraine next to the President.
Budanov had been Chief of the Main Directorate of Intelligence for Ukraine since August 2020, which is generally considered the most powerful Ukrainian Intelligence Agency and reports to the Ministry of Defense rather than the Ukrainian military General Staff. The Main Directorate of Intelligence of Ukraine is usually abbreviated to HUR, GUR, or DIU (English). The Russian equivalent is the GRU. The HUR is also roughly equivalent to the CIA and British MI6, which took over and reformed the HUR immediately following the Maidan Revolution and coup in February 2014. The CIA has been tightly linked to the HUR since 2014 and to Budanov at least since 2020. British MI6 provides personal security to President Zelensky. Zelensky’s presidential term expired in March 2024, but he has held power because of martial law declared in March 2022. Zelensky has also banned all opposition political parties and opposition media.

“No one can serve two masters. Either you will hate the one and love the other, or you will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and money.” Luke 16:13.
Back in the “ancient times”, in February of 2001, I wrote an article for the old newsprint version of The Times Examiner titled: “The GrowingCurse of Hyphenated Americans.” I felt strongly about this problem of “divided loyalty” (i.e. “dual citizenship”) among Americans then, and I haven’t changed my opinion one bit since. If anything, I’m more disturbed over the “curse” of hyphenated Americans today than I was then, when it was an irritating problem, rather than the societal threat it has become. If you are blind to this potential nation-shattering problem, you really need to read this article carefully. If you revel in being a “hyphenated” American and/or you express divided loyalties to some other nation, you need to reconsider your decision!

As we move further into the new year, County Council will be taking an important step to make sure we’re aligned, prepared, and focused on the work ahead. In February, we will be scheduling a Council planning retreat.
A planning retreat gives Council the opportunity to step back from the regular meeting cadence and look at the bigger picture. It’s a time to review how we operate, update any internal rules that may need adjusting, and make sure our processes are still serving both the public and the Council effectively.
America Rallies to Keep Christ in Christmas
- Details
- By America Needs Fatima
HANOVER, Penn. — Thousands of faithful Americans gathered at 1,157 individual rosary rallies to remind us to “Keep Christ in Christmas.” Organized through America Needs Fatima, these rallies sought to reaffirm the true meaning of Christmas amid widespread cultural secularization observed during this season.
Participants offered public prayer in reparation for irreverence toward God, Our Lady, Catholics, and the traditional family – manifested in politically themed nativity displays, Christmas-themed drag performances, irreverent artistic portrayals (including “An Act of God,” which depicts God the Father and the Ten Commandments in a mocking manner), and the growing commercialization of Christmas. Sadly, the sacred meaning of the season has been eclipsed by consumerism, with holiday retail sales expected to exceed $1 trillion this year.

Knowing Trump
- Details
- By Lyle J. Rapacki, Ph.D. - Arizona Today
One can easily argue Donald Trump does not fit the classic mold of a President, whatever the classic mold might be. He is not a traditional politician. He is not a statesman. He surely doesn’t walk on water but certainly Mr. Trump is a leader, and unique thinking “out-of-the-box” businessman and doer. He grew up with a dad who taught Donald that talk was cheap, but accomplishments are what truly define the man. His Dad taught him competence and efficiency; get into a job, get it done get it done right, and get out. Donald Trump wasn’t satisfied making a good living, he was more interested in making a good statement. That may seem weird statement given Donald Trump’s millions but behind the financial success of the man is the mind-set and personal conviction that making a good statement upon the finished product is what truly matters.
Venezuela Cracks Down After U.S. Seizure of Maduro, Journalists Detained and Paramilitaries Deployed

- By Emmitt Barry - Worthy News Washington D.C. Bureau Chief
CARACAS (Worthy News) – Venezuela’s remaining power structure has launched a sweeping security crackdown following the dramatic U.S. operation that captured former leader Nicolás Maduro, arresting journalists, restricting media coverage, and deploying armed paramilitary groups to suppress any public reaction to his removal.
Gun-wielding colectivos — pro-government paramilitary groups — flooded the streets of Caracas under a state of emergency that was dated January 3 but formally published Monday. Media unions reported that at least 14 journalists and media workers, including 11 from foreign outlets, were detained for hours and later released, as authorities sought to prevent coverage of political developments.
Eurobond Medicine for Ukraine

Weimar Republic Economics
Shortly after the Russian Army crossed into Ukraine on February 24, 2022, the United States, NATO, and the European Union brought massive financial sanctions against the Russian Federation and froze approximately $300 billion in Russian financial assets held in allied banks around the world. Most of these assets are held in Euroclear, a major Belgian based clearing bank in Brussels, but smaller amounts are being held in Japan, Canada, the UK and the U.S.
The interest on these frozen financial assets is already being used to help Ukraine, but this has been opposed by many EU members, especially Hungary. Furthermore, the interest is only a drop in the bucket compared to Ukraine’s needs. The United States is now funding the Ukrainian government at close to $50 billion per year. Military costs run at least that much more. At this point, Ukraine is almost totally dependent on the United States, NATO, and the European Union.
Will We Ever Heed Orwell’s Warning?

A WARNING FROM GEORGE ORWELL:
“This is the direction the world is going in at the present time. In our world there will be no emotions, except fear, rage, triumph, and self abasement. The sex instinct will be eradicated…. There will be no loyalty except loyalty to the party. But always there will be the intoxication of power. Always at every moment there will be the thrill of victory, the sensation of trampling on an enemy who is helpless.
“If you want a picture of the future, imagine a boot stamping on a human face forever. The moral to be drawn from this dangerous nightmare situation is a simple one. DON’T LET IT HAPPEN! It depends on YOU.”
Eric Blair (1903-1950). Better known by his “pen name” of GEORGE ORWELL.

RFK, Jr. and Congress Work Together to Protect Children from Mutilation
- Details
- By Eagle Forum
The House and Senate have adjourned until the first week of January to spend time with their families over the holidays. Before leaving, they passed the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) and thwarted an extension of the COVID-era Obamacare subsidies (for now). One topic in particular was the bow on the package of conservative wins this Congress. The House passed significant legislation to protect children from gender mutilation procedures, and days later the Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) issued regulatory proposals to do the same.
Last week, the House voted on a pair of bills to stop genital mutilation and hormone blockers from being used on children. Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) was given the green light for a floor vote on her bill, the Protect Children’s Innocence Act (H.R. 3492), after agreeing to vote for the NDAA. The bill would make “gender transition” procedures a federal crime. Medical professionals could face up to 10 years of prison and/or significant fines for performing these mutilating and experimental practices.
The Economists Got 2025 All Wrong
- Details
- By Stephen Moore
Well, Donald Trump has done it again!
He stumped the chumps. The "chumps" in this case were the "blue-chip" academic and financial economists whose consensus forecast this time last year was of high inflation and low economic growth. Wrong on both counts.
As you've probably heard, the GDP growth for Q3 came in at a red-hot 4.3%, following 3.5% for the second quarter. Some 90% of professional economists got it wrong -- all underestimating the strength of the Trump economy. QED: These weren't random errors. These were "hate Trump" errors.
They also predicted inflation of above 3% for 2025. It's going to come in at closer to 2.7%, with the last two months trending down to the Fed inflation target of 2%.
