New York court crumbles COVID-19 vaccine mandate walls

New York's Supreme Court has told employers who fired employees for failing to get the COVID-19 shots to reverse course, rehire those workers and -- get this -- give 'em all their backpay. Finally. Sanity is coming back into America. Let more lawsuits flow.

Attorneys general ride to free-market, anti-ESG rescue

Eric Schmitt is helping to lead a 19-state investigation into six U.S. financial firms that are tied to the United Nations' Net-Zero Banking Alliance, a global entity that basically tells businesses to get on board with the radical environmental agenda, or close doors. Yay, Team A.G.

Transgender enablers are cruel, wicked and even criminal

The LGBTQ movement in this nation has rapidly shifted to one of demanding tolerance for utter evil. It's high time to drum out the evil. It's past time to call out the lies for what they are: lies. It's due season to get legislators and courts involved to stop the insanity.

Socialism in America thriving as secularism grows

Youth are being taught a batch of lies: namely, that life is about making a buck, that the path to success should be easy, and that some are born with unfair advantages and therefore, their subsequent successes are unearned. These are all ingredients in the recipe called socialism.

January 6 is not the drop dead Election Day deal Democrats think

Democrats believe that a subpoena to Donald Trump will be the final, dramatic moment voters say, hey, you're right, Dems, we do hate The Donald and we're going to vote against all Republicans this coming November. But nobody cares about January 6. Not really.

Biden does a Humpty Dumpty with ‘slight’ recession remark

President Joe Biden said he didn't think there would be a recession, but if there were, it would be "very slight" -- but not to worry because he doesn't "anticipate" even this slightness of economic slump. Democrats and their equivocations. What's a "slight" recession, anyway?

Democrats and their dirty politics, ‘disgraceful tactics’

GOP Jennifer-Ruth Green is running for Congress against Indiana Democrat Rep. Frank Mrvan. Turns out, she's a survivor of sexual assault. But we wouldn't know that if leftists hadn't perused her military records and, over her pleas for privacy, pushed that bit of info into the public domain.

Democrats do love their culture of death

If abortion is a privacy issue, then all the much more recreational heroin use, prostitution and even, yes, even pedophilia. Wait for it; the logical extension gets you there soon enough.

Face masks make massive inroads with brainwashed college crowd

Only a few colleges are forcing face masks for this fall's return to campus. But it doesn't really matter. Most college kids, according to recently collected data, are voluntarily wearing them anyway. Why? At root: the brainwashing of the past coronavirus years has been successful.

Democrats — uh-oh! Voters don’t want kids taught porn

Voters by a vast majority think kids should be sheltered from pornographic materials in their school libraries, and that parents have a right to know that the teachers are teaching, according to a new poll from Rasmussen Reports. Democrats -- uh-oh. There goes your midterm hopes.

Hurricane Ian, to Democrats, a chance to score political points

Sen. Amy Klobuchar, just hours before one of Florida's worst weather events was due to strike, said of her party's work on climate change: "That's why we've got to win this as that hurricane bears down on Florida. We've got to win in the midterms." Never let a crisis go to waste?

Socialist Bernie Sanders still eyes White House

Sen. Bernie Sanders, independent by name but socialist by game, said he hasn't yet decided on another run for the White House in 2024. That figures. He barely can decide on a political party. How could he possibly know if he wants to run the country or not?

Pro-COVID-19 vaccine doc calls for stop to shots

A doctor who was initially on board with the COVID-19 vaccination program and widespread use of the novel mRNA shots has now called on health officials to stop administrating the shots. Why? Because of a study showing the shots came with a high risk of serious health impacts.

Sexualizing youth is America’s great, growing evil

A school in Newburyport, Massachusetts, has made available to students via its library shelves a book called "This Book is Gay," with a subject matter that teaches how to use online sex apps. Subtitle it "porn for kiddies." A few years ago, this would've been considered criminal.

Loser Liz Cheney now swears she’ll vote Democrat

Rep. Liz Cheney in an interview over the weekend said she'd do whatever it took to keep Donald Trump from winning the White House in 2024 and Kari Lake from winning Arizona's governorship, even if it meant stumping for Democrats.
