Transgender madness is an evil that must be stopped

Republican Gov. Mike DeWine signed a bill into law that bars boys pretending to be girls from using bathrooms and changing rooms in public schools and universities in Ohio, and instead forces them to use the facilities that correspond with their birth sex. That's good. That's a step. But it's only a step.

Bold & Blunt: Missiles and mines and more war, oh my

Whispers are that President Joe Biden has kicked off World War 3 in his final days of White House leadership, by reversing long-standing U.S. policy to prevent Ukraine from launching American missiles into Russia. Suddenly, two more months of Biden administration seem very, very long.

Bold & Blunt: Christians, no time to sleep!

Yes, Donald Trump won the White House; thankfully, Donald Trump won the White House. But this is no time for Christians and conservatives and those who understand the Judeo-Christian founding of this nation to go quiet and go to sleep.

Bold & Blunt video: ICC’s day of reckoning is coming

The International Criminal Court has two months left of the Joe Biden administration -- and then in comes Donald Trump and wait for it, wait for it, let the face-slapping of the global entity commence. Call it the day of reckoning.

Jack Smith forced to drop all False-y McFalse Face felony charges aimed at Trump

Special counsel Jack Smith filed to drop all four of the felonies he charged at Presdent-elect Donald Trump for the crime of telling the American people on Jan. 6, 2021, to peacefully protest, err, oops, to violently storm the U.S. Capitol and incite a riot. When asked why, he said with tears in his eyes, "The plan failed. Trump won." Not really. But it could happen.

LGBTQ radicalism is about as ungodly as it gets

Rep. Nancy Mace has launched a crusade against men pretending to be women and entering female bathrooms at the Capitol -- a campaign that's received the thumbs-up of Speaker Mike Johnson and one she now wants to see go nationwide in all federal buildings. As it should. And it should. And then some.

She also said the Oct. 7 terror attack "never would have happened" if Donald Trump, now the president-elect, were in the White House on that fateful day in 2023.

Incoming Trump administration to make science scientific again

The editor-in-chief of Scientific American recently quit her job after taking to social media to rant against Donald Trump's supporters as the "meanest" and the "dumbest," and to call Generation X-ers who voted Republican "f---ing fascists." Science, Democrat style.

Democrats won’t stop, Marxists never quit

It's been an awesome few days for patriotic Americans who've just now handed one of the most significant pro-liberty mandates since Ronald Reagan days to a Make America Great Again guy, Donald Trump. But this is just the beginning of four more years of hard fighting.

Bible in schools a basic building block for American Exceptionalism

Oklahoma State Superintendent Ryan Walters says the Bible should be taught in classrooms as a means of spreading the roots and causes of American Exceptionalism. Bam. That's the next big cultural battle in America -- to bring back the Bible to the public square.

Bold & Blunt: Trump will make America prosperous again

Donald Trump was elected president, and shortly after, markets surged. This is definitely a sign of a return to solid economic growth in America. Expect fewer regulations, fewer government interventions and more entrepreneurial spirit leading to business growth in the next four years.

America more united by MAGA than leftists like to admit

The numbers are trickling in, and between the presidential elections of 2020 and 2024, President-elect Donald Trump saw dramatic increases in support at the ballot boxes from Hispanics, youth and Black people -- traditionally all voters who stick with Democrats. This has the Democrat Party trembling in its big black boots.

Americans should embrace 4B feminism with gusto

Democrats disappointed over the election turnout have launched a new protest movement called 4B, whereby all the feminists of the left rise up, band together, and refuse to have sex with their men. Oh, happy day. This is truly one of the greatest inventions since sliced bread; maybe even since the wheel.

Democrat cowards suddenly see the lunacy of LGBTQs

A couple of Democrats who previously supported the right of boys to pretend to be girls and play in female sports are now suddenly singing a different tune, reversing course and claiming boys shouldn't be allowed to pretend to be girls after all. This is what comes of Donald Trump's reelection.

Bold & Blunt: Jack Smith, buh-bye! MAGA enters safe zone

Democrats are shedding big tears post-election, watching as their greatest political tool against Donald Trump go whisk, up in smoke, and disappears: that is, their weaponized judiciary. Too bad, so sad. Buh-ye, Jack Smith.

Media must accept MAGA and stop condemning Christians, patriots

A GOP pundit on CNN shut down his fellow election night panelists after telling them the truth about Donald Trump's win, and it was a truth that went like this: Dear Dems, MAGAs aren't "garbage" or "Nazis" and advancing that narrative is in large part why Kamala Harris lost. Cue Barack Obama's mic drop.

Trump won: Let the suck-up begin

Donald Trump has won. Now everyone from foreign leaders and foreign dignitaries to billionaire businessmen and more are trying to quickly turn their open MAGA hatred into "MAGA! My amigo!" As they should. But let's not forget: These are the same people who think MAGAs are garbage.
