Earlier this week, the Supreme Court delivered two decisions that were very important. I believe one was outstanding, while another was terrible. === GOOD NEWS FIRST === There was a BIG win yesterday for religious schools, and those who value religious liberties and our First Amendment. Back in 2015, Montana established a program that provided a tax credit for those parents who wanted to send the... Read more »
Incredibly, calls to “defund the police” are actually gaining traction in dozens of cities with far-left local governments. For example, the Minneapolis City Council voted to eliminate their police department, but still hasn’t identified how citizens will be kept safe. New York City is taking steps to cut over $1 billion from its police, with similar efforts now underway in cities like Baltimore, ... Read more »
On Wednesday, U.S. Rep. Ralph Norman (R-SC) led over 60 members of Congress in a letter to U.S. Attorney General Bill Barr calling for an update on the 2017 investigation by the Department of Justice (DOJ) into the alleged monetization of human fetal tissue by Planned Parenthood. On May 26th of this year, the Center for Medical Progress released a series of sworn testimonies of Planned Parenthood ... Read more »
To me, this is the LAST thing Congress should be focused on right now. I’m talking about legislation that would turn Washington, D.C. into our nation’s 51st state. House Democrat Leadership has scheduled a vote on just such a measure today. I’ll be a hard NO vote, but by the time you read this, the liberal majority will have passed the bill in the House, even though it’s highly unlikely to be cons... Read more »
In two sentences, here’s what happened yesterday: (1) Sen. Tim Scott had a strong bill to improve relationships and transparency between law enforcement and those they serve. (2) Liberals in the Senate torpedoed it, ending any chance of meaningful reform for the foreseeable future. There are over 600,000 people in our congressional district, and I’m now on a mission to make sure they all know the ... Read more »
You just need to listen to this short video to understand the frustration of Republicans right now in Congress. This is Sen. Tim Scott (R-SC), who has worked tirelessly on a new bill in the Senate called the Justice Act, which will help improve relationships and transparency between law enforcement and those they serve. Earlier today, Democrats BLOCKED debate on this bill. They didn't block a fina... Read more »
Get this: there are actually protesters in D.C. vowing to tear down the Emancipation Statue of Abraham Lincoln. Yes, the same Abraham Lincoln who signed the Emancipation Proclamation freeing slaves 157 years ago. In fact, former slaves helped raise funds to create this monument. And Frederick Douglass, who escaped slavery and led national efforts to abolish it, helped dedicate the statue in 1876. ... Read more »
There's a small segment of our society that has no dignity. No honor, and no reverence. Over the weekend, some of those individuals chose to deface and vandalize a WWII memorial in a Charlotte cemetery that honors more than 500 men and women who GAVE THEIR LIVES in service to our nation. And then there's another segment of our society represented in the photos below. These are Americans who are si... Read more »
Have you heard about this new Capitol Hill Autonomous Zone (“C.H.A.Z.”)? A six-block area within a Seattle, WA neighborhood known as Capitol Hill has been confiscated by anarchists, far-left protesters, Antifa and others. In a stunning display of surrender, police were ordered to abandon their neighborhood precinct and withdraw from the area. And they’re no longer responding to 9-1-1 calls within ... Read more »
Think about this: if you suspected you might have the coronavirus, even if your symptoms were very mild, wouldn’t you take steps to protect others around you? Just in case? Of course you would. We all would, even if they were total strangers. The problem, however, is any one of us could be infected and highly contagious long before we even suspect something’s wrong. And even if our symptoms remain... Read more »
