Calls Grow For Red States To Challenge SCOTUS Ruling On Schooling For Illegal Aliens

By: Shawn Fleetwood | The Federalist If Republicans play their cards right, they could potentially topple a SCOTUS decision that opened America’s schools to illegal aliens. The culmination of a disastrous 1982 U.S. Supreme Court decision granting illegal aliens access to American public schools has seemingly taken center stage in Charlotte, North Carolina, this week. After the Department of Homeland Security revealed Saturday that U.S. immigration officials would be conducting enforcement operations throughout the city, local media began reporting that an unusually high number of students were marked absent from school. According to data in these reports, roughly 30,000 students did not attend Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools on Monday. (“Officials initially rep...

Want to be happier? Be thankful this Thanksgiving

By Russ Minary | Guest Commentary, Rocky Mountain Voice “When it comes to life, the critical thing is whether you take things for granted or take them with gratitude.” (G. K. Chesterton) This year on Thursday Nov. 27th, our nation celebrates the official Federal holiday of Thanksgiving. President George Washington created this annual celebration with his Thanksgiving Proclamation of 1789, stating “…it is the duty of all Nations to acknowledge the providence of Almighty God, to obey his will, to be grateful for his benefits, and humbly to implore his protection and favor (and)… to recommend to the People of the United States a day of public thanksgiving and prayer to be observed by acknowledging with grateful hearts the many signal favors of Almighty God especially by affording them a...

Approved HHS Gender Medicine Review Stands Firm After Peer Scrutiny, Reaffirms Evidence of Harm

By Greg Piper | Just the News Final version, written mostly by "liberals," makes small changes and answers critics including American Psychiatric Association. "It is fair to say that their work has withstood scrutiny," Washington Post editorial board says. Social scientist Lisa Littman put a target on her back seven years ago by documenting "rapid-onset gender dysphoria" in youth, prompting her to leave Brown University after the Ivy League school tried to discredit her research by implying her study was retracted rather than slightly revised.  Another publisher retracted a subsequent ROGD paper under threat of an academic boycott and a demand to fire the journal's editor, gender dysphoria research pioneer Kenneth Zucker, claiming it lacked "informe...

Unsolicited advice the Sierra Club probably won’t take–but should

By Greg Walcher | Commentary, GregWalcher.com After the 2020 George Floyd murder, the Sierra Club called for defunding police and reparations for slavery. It touched off an internal battle that tore the organization apart, leading to the ouster of two consecutive executive directors, employee layoffs, office closings, loss of members, and financial freefall. It also invited some unsolicited advice – from me. My column, during the worst of the Club’s turmoil, strongly advised its leaders to “stay in your lane.” “Stick to what you are known for, and good at, and you will remain effective and relevant,” I advised. You may be shocked to learn that they did not heed that advice. Perhaps they considered it unfriendly? Psychology Today just published suggested respons...

The Press Has Become the Enemy of Truth and The Epstein Pattern Proves It

By C.J. Garbo | Guest Commentary, Rocky Mountain Voice There was a time in this country when journalism meant something. It meant moral courage. It meant truth telling. It meant pulling corruption into the light even if it scorched the powerful. That era is gone. The modern press no longer defends truth. It orchestrates narratives. It does not expose the darkness. It manages it. If you want the clearest proof, look no further than the Jeffrey Epstein case. No story in modern American history has better revealed the press’s rotting soul. Epstein ran a global trafficking operation involving the rich, the powerful, and the politically connected. Children were abused. Women were exploited. A network of elites participated or enabled. And yet the media’s coverage has been sporadic, ...

Video From Six Democrat Lawmakers Warns Troops Against Unlawful Commands

By: Misty Severi | Just the News The other lawmakers in the video were Arizona Sen. Mark Kelly, and Reps. Jason Crow of Colorado, Chris Deluzio of Pennsylvania, Chrissy Houlahan of Pennsylvania and Maggie Goodlander of New Hampshire. Six Democratic lawmakers on Tuesday urged United States military service members to "refuse illegal orders," in a video that appeared to criticize the Trump administration's crime and illegal immigration crackdowns.  Michigan Democratic Sen. Elissa Slotkin posted the one-and-a-half minute video, which also featured five other Democratic lawmakers who have military and intelligence backgrounds, on X. "We want to speak directly to members of the Military and the Intelligence Community," Slotkin wrote in the post. "The American people...

Americans Still Waiting For Answers In Trump Assassination Attempt

By: Alex Oliveira | New York Post The American people deserve answers about what drove Thomas Crooks to attempt to assassinate President Trump, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt told The Post on ‘Pod Force One’— after a damning report emerged suggesting the gunman left a trail of digital clues the FBI did not previously share with the public. “Those questions are definitely deserving of answers and I understand why the public wants those answers, and I believe the president does too,” Leavitt recently told Miranda Devine on Pod Force One. “It’s a good question, and it’s one I’d like to see the answer to — and I think all Americans would,” she added. Leavitt’s comments came as Devine dropped a bombshell report in The Post Monday about newly unearthe...

Trump said release the Epstein files—now Congress agrees

By RMV Editorial Board Congress finally did what Washington avoided for years. The House went 423 to 1 and the Senate—unanimously. Washington doesn’t move like that unless people feel something shifting under their feet. Whatever held this shut is starting to give way. For years Democratic leaders and their media allies pushed the idea that Jeffrey Epstein was a Trump problem. If Epstein’s name came up, Trump’s name came next. It was a neat little narrative that kept uncomfortable questions away from Democrats.  Then Congress began releasing documents, and the story stopped cooperating. The clearest political fingerprints on the Epstein files now belong to Democrats, not Trump. The evidence shows Epstein’s network cultivating political allies, guiding congressional questio...

Why birthrates might quietly reshape America’s political future

By Brian C. Joondeph | Commentary, American Thinker Politics may be downstream from culture, but culture is downstream from cribs.  In the U.S. and across the West, who’s having children today will shape who’s running the country tomorrow. In the U.S. and other Western democracies, shifts in fertility, family structure, migration, and well-being are quietly redrawing the political map. Start with the simplest but most potent fact: elections are not won by ideas alone, but by people. This means new people - babies born, children raised, immigrants integrated, voters replaced. As conservative commentator Grant Mercer recently put it in his article “Womb Wars: The Future Belongs to Conservatives,” the left may be fighting for ideas, but if it fails to reproduce the ...

Illegal migrant accused of raping child repeatedly had Obama-era entry, Biden-era protections

By James Lynch | National Review Two illegal immigrants were arrested last week after being accused of repeatedly raping an unaccompanied migrant child who was illegally brought to the U.S. during the Obama administration. Felix Bustillo Diaz, 49, an illegal immigrant from Honduras, and Jose Gerber-Rivera, a 45-year-old Salvadoran illegal alien, are suspected of repeatedly raping Bustillo’s 12-year-old grand niece. The girl was smuggled into the U.S. by her Honduran mother in June 2014, according to federal authorities. The child’s mother was herself an unaccompanied minor at the time and brought the girl, then an infant, with her. The child was then left alone with Bustillo, a convicted criminal who ended up being her sponsor after he claimed to be her great uncle, marking a s...
