The Age of Gaslighting Is Ending

By C. J. Garbo | Guest Commentary, Rocky Mountain Voice You don’t get to do this again. You don’t get another George Floyd. You don’t get another COVID. You don’t get another “mostly peaceful” summer of chaos. You don’t get another shutdown. You don’t get another censorship campaign. You don’t get another government-media narrative that collapses the moment questions start getting answered. You don’t get another election season soaked in fear, confusion, and rule changes. You don’t get to burn trust to the ground and demand we clap for it. You don’t get to excuse violence when it benefits you, then act righteous when it doesn’t. We’ve watched fraud scandals, institutional coverups, and politically convenient “trut...

Congress Braces for Partial Shutdown as Spending Fight Intensifies

By Emily Hallas | Washington Examiner Congress is careening toward the second government shutdown in four months due to disagreements over federal funding for Immigration and Customs Enforcement. The shutdown Washington is preparing for this weekend has several key differences from the government funding battle last fall. That 43-day shutdown became the longest in U.S. history, ending in November 2025. It centered on Democrats’ concerns that legislation to keep the government open did not contain a provision to extend Obamacare subsidies. And before the shutdown was triggered on Oct. 1, it was widely expected due to the known deadline for renewing the expiring Obamacare subsidies. Unlike last fall’s controversy, the latest looming government shutdown w...

Online Platform Reverses Course After Removing Infant Mortality Vaccine Paper

By Greg Piper | Just the News Preprints.org, operated by open-access publisher MDPI, cited its "withdrawal policy" as a whole, but no specific reason, for removing the paper by Children's Health Defense researchers. They found worse risks by race and sex. Twelve years after a senior scientist at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention admitted through his lawyers to withholding a "statistically significant finding" on black babies from his peer-reviewed study finding no link between autism and vaccination, a preprint server that hosts research before peer review erased a study that also found a racial vaccination link. Preprints.org, operated by the Swiss open-access publisher MDPI, took down the study, "Increased Mortality Associated with 2-Month Old Inf...

There Is No Constitutional Right to “Protest”

By Michael J Badagliacco, “MJB” | Guest Commentary, Rocky Mountain Voice The “Right” is to “…Peacefully Assemble and to petition the Government…” In the heated discourse surrounding civil unrest and public demonstrations, a common phrase echoes through media and activism: the right to “peacefully protest.” Contrary to popular opinion, this term appears nowhere in the United States Constitution. The document does not grant a specific right to protest at all. Instead, the First Amendment protects “the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.”  This precise language underscores a limited safeguard, one focused on orderly gatherings rather than disruptive actions often labeled as protests. The Consti...

How the Income Tax Betrayed the Founding and Broke the Constitution’s Promise of Liberty

By C. J. Garbo | Guest Commentary, Rocky Mountain Voice The American Founding was a deliberate rejection of concentrated power. The Founders built the United States around one core principle: government must be strong enough to secure liberty, but restrained enough to never become a master. An income tax, as it exists today, directly violates that design. It creates a federal government with a permanent claim on the labor of the citizen.  It funds unlimited expansion. It invites political favoritism. It weaponizes enforcement. It breaks the relationship between the people and the state that the Constitution was written to protect. Start with the historical fact that taxation was the spark of revolution.  The colonies did not revolt because they dislike...

Parents Are Losing Authority and Washington Must Act

By Emily Washburn | Commentary, Daily Citizen Erin Friday champions parental rights at the highest levels of government. The attorney and mother spent last week on Capitol Hill, rallying to keep boys out of girls sports and urging members of congress to protect parents who do not affirm their children’s sexual identity confusion. Earlier this month, Friday met with the White House Domestic Policy Council to propose an executive order she’d written to prevent family courts and child placement organizations from discriminating against parents who affirm their children’s sex. Friday’s passionate defense of parents began in 2020, when her 13-year-old daughter declared herself “transgender.” “Her school secretly socially transitioned her wh...

Trump Administration Reviews $88 Million in Pandemic Loans to Planned Parenthood

By Katherine Hamilton | Breitbart The Small Business Administration (SBA) is probing whether affiliates of abortion giant Planned Parenthood illegally received $88 million in Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) loans during the COVID-19 pandemic. “At the height of the pandemic, affiliates of Planned Parenthood took $88 million in taxpayer dollars to fund their abortion-on-demand agenda—and the Biden administration made sure they got nearly every cent forgiven, even after the first Trump administration protested,” SBA Administrator Kelly Loeffler told The Daily Signal.  “Six years later, the Trump SBA holds the same conviction: Planned Parenthood Federation of America was never eligible to receive a dime in pandemic-era relief from taxpayers,” she added.&...

Democrats Push Bill That Would Blacklist ICE Officers From Future Government Employment

By Ramsey Touchberry | The Washington Examiner Democrats are vowing to resist President Donald Trump’s sweeping deportation agenda by promoting policies to bar federal immigration officials from obtaining future government and law enforcement jobs. The pledges from progressive candidates seeking higher office go further than the party’s growing calls to “abolish ICE” or to slash its funding. Instead, they are warning of personal repercussions for Trump-era Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers and deterring recruits from accepting lucrative sign-on bonuses. “The way I see it is, if you work for a fascist, forget about ever working for the state,” Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-CA), who’s running for governor in November, told the W...

House Republicans Probe Coordinated Climate Lawsuits Targeting US Energy Companies

By: Kevin Killough | Just the News The committee is investigating two attorneys involved in key climate cases to see whether they were consulted on materials that were used in a program that instructs judges overseeing climate cases. The House Judiciary Committee is probing connections between two attorneys involved in key climate lawsuits against energy companies and a judicial training project that’s come under fire for allegedly biasing judges against the plaintiffs.  The committee sent letters Wednesday to Roger Worthington, owner of the law firm Worthington and Caron, and David Bookbinder, director of law and policy at the Environmental Integrity Project.  Worthington is the lead attorney for Multnomah County, Oregon, in the county’s lawsui...

White House Seeks Accounting of Federal Funds Sent to Colorado and Other Blue States

By Tony Kovaleski | Denver7 The order comes a week after Trump said he intended to cut off federal funding that goes to states that are home to “sanctuary cities” that resist his immigration policies President Donald Trump's budget office this week ordered most government agencies to compile data on the federal money that is sent to 14 mostly Democratic-controlled states and the District of Columbia in what it describes as a tool to “reduce the improper and fraudulent use of those funds.” The order comes a week after Trump said he intended to cut off federal funding that goes to states that are home to “sanctuary cities” that resist his immigration policies. He said that would start Feb. 1 but hasn't unveiled further details. A memo to federal depart...
