Impeachment charade hurts all of America

The left will get its pound of flesh. If anything characterizes how Democrats and their cohorts in the left-leaning media work, it's that phrase -- and it's that phrase's meaning that's being played out with the current impeachment push against President Donald Trump.

Virginia pushing evil law to let boys into girls’ bathrooms

The Virginia Department of Education just released for public comment a proposal that would allow boys who think they're girls, or even boys who pretend to be girls, the unfettered right to enter girls' bathrooms and dressing rooms and changing areas. Talk about child abuse.

Violence plays right into the Saul Alinksy-loving Left’s hands

Violence plays into the hands of the left by giving them a high horse on which they can sit and blast condemnation upon this 'disgusting, vile, violent, gasp, right-wing batch of deplorables.' Or whatever similar suitably condemning phraseology fits the mood of the moment.

The website of the social media platform Parler is displayed in Berlin, Jan. 10, 2021. The platform's logo is on a screen in the background. The conservative-friendly social network Parler was booted off the internet Monday, Jan. 11, over ties to last week's siege on the U.S. Capitol, but not before hackers made off with an archive of its posts, including any that might have helped organize or document the riot.

Parler’s fight is every American’s fight

Parler, the social media alternative to anti-conservative, anti-President Donald Trump, anti-Christian speech police at Twitter, has responded to Amazon Web Services' yank of hosting privileges with a lawsuit. It's crucial to the future of Americans' liberties that Parler wins.

In this Wednesday, Oct. 28, 2020, file photo, Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey appears on a screen as he speaks remotely during a hearing before the Senate Commerce Committee on Capitol Hill, in Washington. Dorsey broke his silence to defend his company’s ban of President Donald Trump as the right decision, but warned that it could set a dangerous precedent. The ban, he said, revealed Twitter’s “failure” to create an open and healthy space for what Dorsey calls the “global public conversation.” (Michael Reynolds/Pool Photo via AP, File)

Big Tech will only be halted by mass boycott

The only way to stop Big Tech and put an end to the social media CEOs' hatred of and hostility to all-things-conservative is for consumers to rally in one huge mass and mount an immediate boycott of all these platforms. And the chance of that happening, seriously, is slim.

Democrats making martyr of Donald Trump

Democrats are turning President Donald Trump into a political martyr. And the more Democrats and some Republicans attack, the more Trump's base of support of uniting, growing, strengthening -- and preparing for comeback. The left always overplays its hand.

Donald Trump’s erasure doesn’t kill MAGA spirit

YouTube just suspended President Donald Trump from its platform for a period of seven days -- or more. That comes after Twitter banned Trump forever and Facebook booted his account indefinitely. Let the Trump haters cheer. They won't kill the spirit of Americanism called MAGA.

This photo made available by the U.S. National Archives shows a portion of the United States Constitution with the title of Article V. For the past two centuries, constitutional amendments have originated in Congress, where they need the support of two-thirds of both houses, and then the approval of at least three-quarters of the states. But under a never-used second prong of Article V, amendments can originate in the states. (National Archives via AP) ** FILE **

Parler purge just the beginning

Mark these words, this is a purge of conservative speech, conservative expression, conservative rhetoric -- and this is all just the beginning.

Mark Levin, conservative talkers, threatened with firing

Cumulus radio hosts who don't cease and desist their chatter of stolen elections, fraudulent ballot counts and suggestions of the viability of continuing challenges to the Donald Trump-Joe Biden faceoff will be fired. Immediately. That's according to a memo from a Cumulus top dog.

Parler goes dark in biggest free speech heist of modern day

Big Tech has decided the social media option, Parler -- which grew in recent months due to the blatant censorship of Big Tech, by Big Tech, and denied by the liars at Big Tech -- well, that same Big Tech has decided that Parler grew too big for its own britches. So they targeted it for takedown. And they took it down.

Great Reset is corporate communism, and it’s coming to America

Joe Biden's just-announced Cabinet picks for Labor and Commerce -- Mayor Marty Walsh and Gov. Gina Raimondo, respectively -- share the common denominator of being tight with the unions. And that makes perfect sense when you consider the corporate-run communism that's coming to America under Democrats.

Billionaires reap big bucks during coronavirus despair

The coronavirus has been devastating to America's economy, to America's businesses, to America's entrepreneurs, to America's farmers and fitness trainers and food servers and file clerks -- to blue-collar and white-collar workers alike. Not all, however, have similarly suffered.

China goes ‘full rogue,’ sparking fears of next ‘Cuban Missile Crisis’

The mass arrest of pro-democracy activists in Hong Kong, combined with the messaging of China's president for all soldiers to be on alert for combat "at all times," has set the global stage for the "most dangerous moment since the Cuban Missile Crisis," according to one China affairs expert, Gordon G. Chang. That's comforting.

God or bust — America’s choice is clear

There comes a time when things get so bad that even those without faith, even those who don't normally pray, even those who don't consider themselves believers in a higher power -- when things go so far south that even these secular types turn to God and ask for help. It's in these desperate conditions America now stands.

Democrats set 117th Congress stage for godlessness

Democrat Rep. Emanuel Cleaver opened the 117th Congress in a prayer -- of sorts -- to "the monotheistic god, Brahma, and god known by many names by many different faiths." And then he wrapped with "amen and a-woman." With this prayer, Dems are essentially giving the boot to God from government.

WHO can take its ‘next pandemic’ and shove it

For all you "let's just listen to the government so we can get back to normal" types out there, listen up: World health wonks are already paving the way to the next pandemic and with it more liberty-restricting lockdowns.

Democrats, RINOs alike dying to get rid of Donald Trump

Democrats, deep staters, RINOs, Black Lives Matter Marxist-types -- all these players and more are just days from breathing sighs of relief at the end of the "America First" administration, the one run by Donald Trump, the one run by the guy who outright, beginning to end, refused to play polite political behind-closed-door games.
