Twitter, Facebook, YouTube desperate to kill countering coronavirus thought

President Donald Trump shared critical tweets about Anthony Fauci and his truth-telling of the efficacy of hydroxychloroquine to help cure the coronavirus -- and the censors on social media responded by removing his posts. Anyone who thinks freedom of speech still stands strong in this nation -- take note: It does not.

Chief Justice John Roberts is a shameful secular shill

Chief Justice John G. Roberts Jr. joined with the liberal wing of the Supreme Court to rule, in essence, that casinos and restaurants have more freedom to operate than churches -- an astonishing unconstitutional and un-American finding, given the roots of this nation as one conceived in the quest for religious freedom.

Health bureaucrats have crippled America

Look around. America the free is America the stifled. And what's perhaps the saddest about this reality is the stifling has come not by law, not by ordinance, not by duly passed legislation by duly elected officials -- but by the whims and wishes of unelected, largely unaccountable medical bureaucrats.

Kentucky pastors fight unconstitutional COVID-19 church closures

Megachurch Pastor Brian Gibson just sent a strong message Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear's way that said, in essence, COVID-19 or no COVID-19, this church is staying open. Finally. Churches of the nation, unite. If the coronavirus has taught America anything, it's this: Government will attack religion.

Blacks more racist than Whites, say Americans to Rasmussen

A new poll from Rasmussen Reports finds that Americans, by a majority, see Blacks as more racist than Whites. Make way for the protests. Make way for the Black Lives Matter, Democrat, leftist-outraged arguments. In short: There goes the whole Democratic Party's platform.

Louie Gohmert raises valid point in call to rename Democratic Party

Rep. Louie Gohmert, Republican from Texas, introduced a resolution that would ban the Democratic Party, among other organizations, based on historical truths about the left's embrace of racism and blatant support of slavery. It's a resolution that yes, is eye-widening -- but at least it strikes the right spirit. He raises some good points.

Hey, lawyers: Where are you?

Washington, D.C., Mayor Muriel Bowser just issued an executive order requiring all citizens and visitors to wear masks when outside, or else face possible fines of up to $1,000. She's just one of many around the nation issuing similar or identical orders and enforcement threats. And all the free citizens go: Where are the lawyers?

Socialists see Joe Biden as ripe for picking, ready to mold

Former Housing and Urban Development Secretary Julian Castro said in an interview with The Hill that Joe Biden, in conjunction with the current hot protest climate, represents the best chance Democrats have seen in a generation to enact significant reform, and in particular, racial justice reforms. So say and see all the socialists.

China is killing America

A handful of conservatives just asked President Donald Trump to keep in place a Roadless Rule that prevents loggers from tapping into Alaska's Tongass National Forest. At first blush, this seems an environmental issue. But it's really a question about China and at what point America puts a stop to communist influences on U.S. soil.

Rep. Ayanna Pressley and her insane call to ‘cancel debt’

Rep. Ayanna Pressley, Massachusetts Democrat and noted fourth in a socialist "squad" that includes fellow congressional members Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Ilhan Omar and Rashida Tlaib, has just called for the outright cancellation of all forms of major debt. In so doing, she may have just secured the rights to the Crown of Insanity.

God save America (only God can save America)

The prevailing rule of thought in America is that the Second Amendment is the civil liberty right that underscores and preserves all the others. There's truth to that. But the Second Amendment won't help with this COVID-19 madness.

America, it’s happening: Government is jailing COVID-19 patients at home

A Kentucky woman who tested positive for COVID-19 was ordered by health bureaucrats to stay at home -- and shackled with an ankle monitor to make she sure does. It's happening, America. Wake up and smell the contact tracing, the "new normal" that allows government to demand citizens "voluntarily" self-quarantine. Or else.

Joe Biden is America’s worst-case puppet

Joe Biden's campaign includes a manager, several press spokespeople, a couple of pollsters -- and a dedicated batch of young engineering interns whose sole mission is to devise clever wooden props that can secretly, behind the scope of the camera's eyes, keep his teetering and tottering to a minimum. That's to say: Biden is a puppet.

Berkeley City Council rolls out red carpet for criminals

Berkeley City Council members, in all their wisely owl wisdom, just voted in a reform bill for police that requires them to stop issuing traffic tickets and that will, over the course of time, cut their departmental budgets by 50%. And all the criminals and would-be criminals go: Yay!

Donald Trump is the wall against anti-American globalism

If President Donald Trump doesn't win this November, and former Vice President Joe Biden takes over the White House, then it's goodbye America, hello globalism. Goodbye America, hello new world order. It doesn't get any clearer than that.
