Consumer Financial Protection Gone Awry
- Details
- By Star Parker
The crises of recent years tend to erase from memory those that preceded them.
One, as you may recall, was the financial collapse of 2008 -- a collapse deemed by many as the worst since the Great Depression.
That collapse swept into power a government like the one we have now -- the White House and both houses of Congress controlled by Democrats.
Newly elected President Barack Obama appointed then-Rep. Rahm Emanuel as his chief of staff, who made popular the saying, "Never let a serious crisis go to waste."
Gibson's Bakery Scores a Victory for Truth
- Details
- By Star Parker
Periodically, in what seems like a never-ending assault on our basic values and the rule of law, good news emerges.
The good news now is the unanimous decision of a panel of three judges on an Ohio Court of Appeals, supporting a jury decision in favor of Gibson's Bakery in its case against Oberlin College.
Gibson's Bakery sued Oberlin College for libel, intentional infliction of emotional distress and intentional interference with a business relationship, because of the school's involvement and support of student demonstrations accusing the bakery of racial profiling and discrimination.
Democrats Spend Low-Income Americans Into Poverty
- Details
- By Star Parker
I have been writing for years about how progressive policies championed by the Democratic Party and served up under the guise of caring about low-income Americans wind up hurting these very communities.
The latest chapter in this saga is the newly unleashed round of inflation, the worst our country has seen in 40 years.
Two important points here are that first, we can lay responsibility for this inflation directly at the doorstep of the Biden administration, and second, those being hurt most by this inflation are the very low-income Americans that this administration claims to care so much about.
Clarence and Ginni Thomas, American Patriots
- Details
- By Star Parker
Supreme Court Associate Justice Clarence Thomas is once again in the crosshairs of liberals.
This has been going on since his confirmation hearings in 1991, when President George H.W. Bush had the temerity to nominate a Black conservative to take the Supreme Court seat of Thurgood Marshall.
Thomas' confirmation hearings provided a laboratory showing how low liberals are willing to go to try to discredit a conservative, even more so one who is Black.
Now liberal journalists are having their most recent field day because it happens that Thomas' wife, Ginni, is a conservative like him, is an American patriot like him, and is personally invested, like her husband, in safeguarding our Constitution's integrity, written, as its drafters wrote in its preamble, "to secure the blessings of liberty."
Florida Law Is Pro-Freedom, Not Anti-LGBTQ
- Details
- By Star Parker
The distorted rhetoric -- should I say lies? -- labeling Florida's legislation about parental rights in public schools as, "Don't say gay" demonstrates the hypocrisy of LGBTQ activism.
I say hypocrisy because this movement has always showcased itself as being about freedom, rights and social justice.
But the reality is that LGBTQ activism is not at all about freedom and rights. It is about advancing their particular agenda at the expense of alternative ways of viewing the world.
The Florida legislation, which defines itself at the outset as about parental rights, has 163 lines, out of which a total of five address sex education.
A Morally Weak Biden Invites Putin's Advances
- Details
- By Star Parker
I wrote last week about the collapse of the Soviet Union as result of the strength, moral clarity and leadership of President Ronald Reagan.
I quoted Reagan's observation that the ultimate battle we fight, around the world and at home, is one of good and evil.
This battle never ends. Evil always seeks to advance, constantly in search of the retreat of the presence of good, as it seeks opportunities for expansion.
There simply is no other way to understand the horrible realities we confront today.
Return of the 'Evil Empire'
- Details
- By Star Parker
Regardless of what any American feels about what steps we should take in response to Russian President Vladimir Putin's aggressive incursion into Ukraine, for sure most are appalled by what he has done.
As Putin moves to regain Russian control over nations that once were part of the Soviet sphere, we ought to think about the circumstances under which the Soviet Union collapsed to consider how it all might be reversed.
In March 1983, President Ronald Reagan spoke to the National Association of Evangelicals in Orlando, Florida, and delivered what would famously become known as the speech in which he called the Soviet Union the "evil empire."
