Rooke: Caitlin Clark could’ve been a hero, but instead she bent the knee to racist bullies

TIME Magazine nominated WNBA phenom Caitlin Clark as the Athlete of the Year for 2024. And honestly, she deserves it.

West: The false gods of Leftism

You often hear leftists rant on about the “separation of church and state,” with the goal being the separation of America’s Judeo-Christian faith heritage from itself.

What Thomas Jefferson really meant when he wrote that letter to the Danbury Baptist Convention of Connecticut was to calm any concerns that the Baptists had that the Presbyterians would be the official “religion” of America. Jefferson knew very well of the lesson from England of King Henry VIII. Who, when denied a divorce by the Catholic Church, created his very own religion and persecuted those who did not worship him as both Head of State and Head of Church. That even included his most trusted advisor, Thomas More, who was beheaded.

What is also not news is that Colorado’s progressives will oppose most of the President’s policies and probably think that Colorado can escape the oncoming Trump deregulation bulldozer.
