Free Republic

These days, the younger generation is encouraged to despise their American birthright. According to this worldview, the United States was a force for oppression in centuries past, and racism, baked into the very structure of the republic, constitutes the true narrative of the American people. And what is this worldview’s solution to our country’s alleged ills? To tear down the existing order, cleanse it of its sins, and reeducate the youth such that they become activists against democracy, free speech, and free thought.This new mentality is driven by what some call “wokeness.” As I detail in my forthcoming book: Christianity...

Dramatic video captured the moment a Haitian mob captured two alleged Colombian assassins, beat them and dragged them bloodied through the streets of Port-au-Prince after President Jovenel Moïse was gunned down. A video shared on social media shows the crowd pulling two men, one of whom was shirtless and bound with a rope, in the neighborhood of Petion-Ville, near the late president’s private residence. “Advance, advance!” someone is heard yelling on the video as the crowd pushes the two men, who were discovered hiding in some bushes. Some people grabbed the two by their shirts and pants, pushed them and...

The World Health Organization has revealed that it has placed a new Covid-19 strain first discovered in Russia on its online list of variants for monitoring. It joins a selection of eleven other unnamed coronavirus mutations. The strain was first detected in January this year, but it has only now been deemed severe enough to be listed. According to the WHO classification system, variants are determined first to be designated for “further monitoring,” before being promoted to “of interest,” and then, finally, “of concern.” If the newly discovered variant found in Russia is determined to be more serious, it will...

It looks like the first steps are being taken to start a forensic audit of the 2020 presidential election in Pennsylvania. This week, Pennsylvania state Rep. Doug Mastriano requested “information and materials” from multiple counties for a “forensic investigation” just like the recently completed audit in Maricopa County, Arizona. Mastriano is the chairman of the Intergovernmental Operations Committee.President Trump has been calling for a forensic audit in Pennsylvania. He and his campaign have long alleged irregularities and fraud in battleground states where election laws were violated. However, the media has loudly dismissed these allegations, and those who believe fraud occurred...

As in Vietnam from 1965 to 1973, the year our prisoners of war came home, America did not lose a major battle in Afghanistan. Yet we did not win the war. South Vietnam was lost. And contrary to the message awaiting President George W. Bush when he landed on the carrier USS Abraham Lincoln, which was flaunting the banner "Mission Accomplished," America did not accomplish its mission. resident Joe Biden said as much Thursday, when he responded to a reporter's question, "The mission has not failed -- yet." As the 20th anniversary of 9/11 impends, and with it our final...

More video emerged on Thursday showing that Joe Biden’s cognitive decline has neither slowed nor stopped. As I’ve mentioned before, I don’t feel sorry for him because his long history of corruption, nastiness, racism, and pervy behavior disqualifies him from getting my compassion. And while I’d like to feel Schadenfreude as to the Democrats – that is, I’d like to enjoy watching Democrats struggle with a mentally decompensating president – the fact that Biden is theoretically leader of the free world makes the situation too scary for Schadenfreude.The latest evidence of Biden’s swift mental decomposition occurred when he appeared before...

ROCKFORD, Mich. (AP) — A competitive eater wolfed down 50 chili dogs in 22 minutes, setting a local record at a bar in western Michigan where thousands of customers have their names on the wall for eating just a fraction. Molly Schuyler showed up and just started eating Wednesday at The Corner Bar in Rockford while other customers watched with their own meals, WOOD-TV reported. “Hot dog!” Schuyler said. After 19 minutes, she had eaten 44 hot dogs. “Brought her out six more dogs. In 22 minutes, she ate 50," server Lisa Paavo said.

In Georgia, there was both an audit and a statewide recount confirming Biden’s victory, but ignored in the process was evidence that nearly 35,000 Georgians had potentially voted illegally. New evidence indicates that more than 10,300 illegal votes were cast in Georgia in the November 2020 general election — a number that will continue to rise over the next several months, potentially exceeding the 12,670 votes that separated Joe Biden and Donald Trump. While this evidence does not change the fact that Joe Biden is our president, all Americans who genuinely care about free and fair elections and the disenfranchisement...

(Washington, D.C) In an unofficial meeting, Nancy Pelosi has confirmed what many of us already suspected. Without parody and satire sites on the net, the Democratic Party would have a normal looking platform. From the conversation: “You know, sitting around in committee trying to think of ways to ruin America so it can be rebuilt in a glorious socialist/communist structure, with us at the top, of course, is difficult work. There is only so much stupid stuff we can think of. While we eat $14 or $15 ice cream, I'm not sure of the cost, I have my people take...

White House coordinator for the Indo-Pacific Kurt Campbell said this week the U.S. does “not support Taiwan independence” but does “very much support Taiwan’s dignity.

It’s just going to take some time. Time will heal. Or simply: with time my dear, with time. Time is powerful. It heals, transforms, renews, dulls, and decays. It raises rulers and silences them. It turns infants into the aged. It chisels the face of mountains and then turns them to dust. And as humans, we are all its subjects. We feel its effects and are subject to its demands. One of the most tangible tolls of time is the manner in which it weighs upon our relationships. I don’t relate to my parents the way I did when I...

It’s FLOTUS Friday but news of the real FLOTUS is hard to come by.I can’t imagine why Melania Trump would avoid the media, can you? An unnamed source of the family told the outlet that Melania prefers to stay out of the limelight… "She never liked press scrutiny and hates it more now," the unnamed insider said. "She will do whatever she can to avoid being photographed or interviewed. She remains low key, enjoying her life with her family." – IBTAs long as you and your husband are going to be treated like hombrés you may as well go full...

Last year, the U.S. Army began equipping its first units with the service’s new squad designated marksman rifle (SDMR) the M110A1. The use of the new SDMR will provide Army infantry squads with a very potent means of engaging targets up to 600 meters away, and is part of an effort to improve the performance of infantry weapons against effective modern body armors. U.S. Army SDMRs, a Brief History The use of SDMRs within U.S. Army infantry squads emerged as a result of fighting in both Iraq and Afghanistan, where it became clear that the Army’s M4 and M16 rifles...

President Biden on Friday will direct the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to work with states on importing prescription drugs from Canada, and direct officials to develop a “comprehensive plan” to lower drug prices in 45 days. The moves are part of the health care section of a wide-ranging executive order on promoting competition in the economy that Biden is poised to sign on Friday afternoon. Allowing imports of cheaper drugs from other countries was part of Biden’s health care plan during the campaign, but Friday’s move is a step forward to take action on that front.

WASHINGTON, Monday, July 8. Col. THOMAS TAYLOR, of the Rebel army, came into Col. TYLER's camp this afternoon, with a flag of truce. He was sent with an escort to the head-quarters of Gen. MCDOWELL. Col. TAYLOR brought dispatches for President LINCOLN. A Cabinet meeting was held at once, and consultations were had during the evening with Gen. SCOTT. The subject of the dispatches is, of course, unknown. While passing from Col. TYLER's to head-quarters, Col. TAYLOR asked the officer in charge of the escort, if our army was not all prostrated with the measles. It is reported that a...

Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell said there was “no good reason not to get vaccinated” at an event in Murray, Kentucky, Tuesday. “I know there is some skepticism out there,” McConnell said at the event. “It may not guarantee you don’t get it, but it almost guarantees you won’t die from it.” “Your amazing country, as a result of an extraordinary pharmaceutical industry and $50 billion we put into something we called Operation Warp Speed, came up with not one, not two, but three highly effective vaccines in under a year,” he said. “A modern medical miracle.” McConnell said the...

In the wake of the killings of George Floyd; Daunte Wright; and Andrew Brown, Jr., which have received huge national attention in the media, it's time to establish the truth in our thinking about race and crime. How common are killings of blacks by police officers, most of them white, or, for that matter, by whites in general? And how common are killings of white police officers, and other whites, by blacks? And why is it that only the killings of blacks seem to receive extensive media attention? The fundamental truth is that all human beings are divinely created creatures...

Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall reportedly “can’t wait to get rid of” face masks as England nears “freedom day” of July 19th when all legal mask mandates are lifted. The Duchess and her husband Prince Charles were visiting the Royal Welsh College of Music and Drama when Camilla made the comment to an MA student. “I can’t wait to get rid of these,” said Camilla as she touched her face mask. The biggest question that remains when it comes to the lifting of mask mandates is whether shops, restaurants, cinemas and public transport will simply continue to insist they be worn...

To look at me you’d never know it, but my great-great-great-great [“4G”] grandmother was from Nigeria, according to my saliva, all that was needed for the laboratory to make that determination. It is difficult to know which of these two data points would have surprised my parents more -- how little we know of our family’s past or how much modern science can tell us. Our family history is pretty murky on both sides, due to early deaths, divorce, transiency, alcoholism, and other assorted human conditions. There’s no shame in that, I suppose. No doubt, many American families have a...
