Victimhood is an epidemic

Pope Francis said the poor shouldn't be blamed "for their condition" because poverty is rooted in "selfishness" -- a characterization that suggests that without handouts, the downtrodden would stay downtrodden. That's a victimhood mentality that's killing American freedoms.

Condoleezza Rice for president!

Condoleezza Rice said yes, America's history is filled with acts and occasions and instances of racism, but it's a disservice to truth to therefore say all of America is racist, and all of America's governing documents are inherently racist. Madam President some day?

Trump Train only grows stronger in face of attacks

The more the RINOs, the more the Democrats, the more the haters in the elitist camps and leftist camps and globalist camps attack Donald Trump, the more the people of America rally around the former president. It's like a Newton's Law thing.

States’ rights to the rescue

In Founding Fathers' days, it was the Federalists versus the Anti-Federalists. In Joe Biden's presidential days, it's the radical environmentalists versus the state treasurers. And watch and wait: If states stand strong, they'll get the win on this one.

Legal battles are brewing over forced COVID-19 vaccines

Rutgers University may think it's taking the high ground by mandating returning students either get the coronavirus vaccine or get out. But class action to the rescue. Angry Americans fighting to keep in place their basic rights of informed consent have a tough law firm in their corner. Good.
