The Left Tries to Ban Christianity in Texas
- Details
- By Erick Erickson - The Resurgent
If you want a sense of where the left is headed nationally, look at what progressive legislators in Texas are trying to do. They want to ban Christianity in all but name. This continues a long line of thought first advocated by the Obama Administration, which sought to restrict the “free exercise” clause of the first amendment to a “freedom of worship” standard. In other words, be a Christian in church on Sunday, but no where else.
Consider a few pieces of legislation that have been filed in the Texas legislature.
SCOTUS Salutes Trump's Power over Military
- Details
- By Tony Perkins - Family Research Council
It's hard enough to be the president under normal circumstances. But try doing it while others are constantly trying to usurp your constitutional authority. That's the position Donald Trump's been in for two whole years. Every time he acts, the courts react -- at best, putting his policies on hold. At worst, refusing to consider them. Today, finally, one set of justices got it right -- but the White House had to go all the way to the top to find them.

- Details
- By Jerry Patterson
The recent U.S. Supreme Court decision continuing the Trump Administration’s ban on transgender military service will no doubt generate an outcry from those self-anointed “social justice warriors” who view this as another great injustice to yet another aggrieved class of Americans. As a retired Marine Vietnam veteran, and the father of a Marine who represent our families 5th generation of overseas wartime service, I think I’m qualified to offer an opinion and I certainly have some skin in the game.

Gun Seizure Coming to South Carolina
- Details
- By Talbert Black, Jr. - Palmetto Liberty
You hear a knock at your door. You open it, and it’s the police - and they have a warrant.
You haven’t broken any laws, but the warrant says you’re a threat to yourself.
They come in and sift your house for guns and ammunition. You have only one gun - a gun you got after your ex-boyfriend began threatening you. The officers take it, along with your box of ammo.
On the way out the door, they tell you to show up in court in a week - and maybe the judge will give your gun back.
Five minutes after they leave, your phone rings. It’s your ex-boyfriend.
I hope this never happens to you.
But if H.3275 passes, it could happen to anyone in South Carolina.
Donald Trump Made a Serious, Reasonable Compromise on the Shutdown. The Media Mostly Ignored It For Fake News.
- Details
- By Erick Erickson - TheResurgent.com
The President on Saturday made a serious, major compromise to get the government back open. In his compromise he
- Gave up the fiction that Mexico is paying for the wall;
- Abandoned his plans for a coast-to-coast wall;
- Offered to extend DACA and keep Dreamers from being deported
These are all significant reversals from the President’s long time position on the border. The Democrats immediately rejected it. The press decided to go back to focusing on BuzzFeed’s story and the story of the kids at the March for Life that the media got wrong.

Brexit Betrayal and the EU Liars Club
- Details
- By William F. Jasper | The New American
"When it becomes serious, you have to lie." So quipped Jean-Claude Juncker, in one of his moments of candor. Juncker is, of course, president of the European Commission, and as such is the chief Eurocrat overseeing the sabotage of Brexit, including the deceitful “negotiation” charade with British Prime Minister Theresa May. Juncker’s infamous quote above is but one of many such admissions by him and his coterie of Eurocrat confreres underscoring the obvious fact that lying, secrecy, and deception are standard operational procedure for the EU elites, as we demonstrate below.

None of Their Business

With the advent of social media, we are all encouraged to share every moment of our lives online with our friends. What we’re doing, what we’re feeling, what we’re eating, where we are, who we’re with, what we think about certain issues—this is the standard content of posts on social media. Sometimes, however, in the enjoyment of communicating our daily lives, we forget that occasionally people we don’t know very well are reading what we post. Depending on where we post (say, in a homeschool Facebook group), we may even be sharing with strangers.
Does America Need a Collegial Nice Guy, or a Hard Nosed Leader?
- Details
- By W.H. Lamb
For about two years, our “ship of State”, the U.S.S. American Nation, has been captained by President Donald Trump. During this two year “voyage” our nation has seen what many of its “passengers” perceive to be major improvements in real wages, in jobs, and in reduced levels of federal “rules and regulations” that were strangling our economy under our previous “pseudo-Captain”. We’ve seen confidence among our people increase as patriotism has increased under our Republican, populist, and nominally conservative President Trump. We’ve seen our stalwart ‘captain’ try hard to “Make America Great Again” by strengthening our military, revising various trade treaties with other nations (a few of which are actually friends with us), and cajoling our sometimes reluctant “allies” to shoulder their fair share of the burdens of protecting and maintaining freedom in a threatening world composed of governments that don’t view freedom in the same light as do Americans.
