Just as extremists have used the Big Lie about the 2020 presidential election to undermine American democracy, far-right advocates of privatizing public education are using Big Lies to undermine public schools. Supporters of public schools must see these ugly attacks for what they are and take a stand against them.

The Supreme Court will overturn the landmark decision of Roe v. Wade in June, Politico reported Monday night. The Supreme Court will overturn the landmark decision of Roe v. Wade in June, Politico reported Monday night, with an apparent draft of the majority opinion leaked to the beltway magazine. Never before has a full draft opinion been pre-emptively leaked to the press in the modern history of the court, and it was leaked this week for one reason: to incite violence and bully justices into changing their votes. “The draft opinion is a full-throated, unflinching repudiation of the 1973 decision...

Part of the oath taken as a federal law enforcement officer includes the phrase to “defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic.” Our country faces mortal threats from nation states like China, Russia, and Iran to name the most prominent. However, we face mortal domestic threats, not from white supremacists, but from government officials, carrying forward tyrannical schemes in the name of public health and safety. As an FBI agent, I swore an oath to the Constitution and to protect it, not an administration, from all those who would align themselves against it. In...

"Sometimes nothing is a real cool hand." In the movie classic "Cool Hand Luke," the convict Luke, played by Paul Newman, explains that to his fellow inmates after winning the pot in a hand of poker without even a pair of deuces. President Joe Biden should take notice. For, right now, "nothing" is the hand he is looking at going into the 2022 election. With the economy the predominant issue, the last business day of April brought disquieting news for Democrats. "Nasdaq Caps Worst Month Since 2008," blared Saturday's lead headline in The Wall Street Journal. "Dismal Data Fuel Stagflation...

Most of the base GOP voters now realize this 2022 primary season is as important to the 2022 outcome as the November election. However, as we have noted in the two-club system, the republican club leadership are using their familiar playbook. Here’s the situation with the Ohio governor’s race. Ohio Governor Mike DeWine (pictured left) shut down businesses his state during COVID and was generally one of the worst “republican” governors in the country during the covid-19 fiasco. DeWine is a typical party/club insider, a left-leaning, ultra-sensitive, spineless worm who operates, like many politicians, as a republican in name only....

Source: Screenshot via CSPANAs with many things, propaganda can be used for good or for ill, depending on who dispenses it. During World War II, American propaganda was considered a necessary tool in the pursuit of victory in a moral cause. Germany and Japan had their own propaganda machines to advance an evil agenda. The Nazi propaganda effort was headed by Joseph Goebbels to whom the term "The Big Lie," meaning if one tells a lie often enough people will come to believe it is true, has been attributed. American forces could listen to several women they called "Tokyo Rose,"...

I've said it before, and I say it again. The 1619 Project is a lie from the pit of hell. It has prostituted one of the most ghastly and hideously loathsome promoters of the continued Marxian objectives of Democrats since their demonic origins. The 1619 Project was invented by Nikole Hannah-Jones and is based upon what she has openly admitted are lies. She tweeted: "The fight over the 1619 Project is not about [factual] history. It is about memory. I've always said that the 1619 Project is not a history. It is a work of journalism that explicitly seeks to...

Whenever the trucking market slows, truck drivers look for someone to blame. Normally, a slowdown is just a function of supply and demand. The market has too much dispatchable capacity compared to the total number of loads on any given day. This summer, the trucking market could have one of its steepest declines in recent years and there is an entity that deserves much of the blame – the Chinese Communist Party and its draconian and inhumane lockdowns.A Chinese containership. (Photo: ship-technology.com)While the motivations of the Chinese government are unclear, one thing is certain – anyone subjected to a Chinese...

“Sady” never even got to hear about college. When she showed up at her high school college counselor’s office, she was shooed right back out the door — she’d let slip that she was joining the U.S. Army after graduation. Sady had been dismissed so fast she never even had the chance to say why she had shown up in the first place: college was her destination. The military was simply the vehicle she’d chosen to get herself there. Now, on the heels of military service and anticipating her freshman year of college, Sady was bewildered by the college matriculation...

The Bible In Paintings 2 ENCOURAGEMENT FOR APPRECIATING AND APPLYING GOD'S MESSAGE 1st SAMUELCHAPTER 1 There was a certain man whose name was Elkanah. He had two wives; one was called Hannah and the other Peninnah. Peninnah had children, but Hannah had none. Year after year this man went up from his town to worship and sacrifice to the LORD Almighty at Shiloh. Whenever the day came for Elkanah to sacrifice, he would give portions of the meat to his wife Peninnah and to all her sons and daughters. But to Hannah he gave a double portion because he...

WASHINGTON – In moments of great peril and uncertainty, the question of who actually runs Washington – who they are, what they think, what they know, what they think they know – takes on even more importance than it might under normal circumstances. In this, the first in a three-part series, Asia Times will examine the current power dynamics that shape the Biden White House and his national security team. Needless to say, the most important players in Washington are, as one might expect, the ones closest to the President, even if, for the most part, they remain unknown by...

Autocratic and authoritarian governments have long employed censorship, deception and propaganda to control the people they rule and influence their adversaries. As U.S. Marines, we were "urged" to read Sun Tzu's fifth century B.C. work, "The Art of War." In it, the Chinese political-military strategist emphasized: "All warfare is based on deception ..." When Adolf Hitler seized power in 1933, he appointed Joseph Goebbels to head the Nazi Party's propaganda machinery. Goebbels' assignment: "Inform Aryan people" why they must support "our mission" and "deceive our enemies." Goebbels did so -- until his suicide on May 1, 1945. During Joseph Stalin's...

Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-CA) and other Democrats used the leaked draft of a Supreme Court decision to overturn Roe v. Wade to try to drum up support for Democrats in the upcoming midterm elections. “There is one and only one way to preserve #RoeVWade and protect a women’s right to choose and that’s to #VoteBlueIn2022.”

Are we utterly deranged? Wasn’t a large portion of America inexorably against war just a few years ago? Have we so completely forgotten everything in the past 10 years and the past 100 years that we’re willing to call for “regime change” in one of the largest and most bellicose nations in the world? And yet a majority of the population is now busting out the Ukrainian flags when Joe Biden says that Russia’s Putin must go. What exactly do we think is going to happen now? Is anyone thinking? Listen America, let me remind you of a few things:...

The US Supreme Court reportedly voted to END Roe v Wade in a DRAFT OPINION by Justice Samuel Alito according to a report leaked to Politico this evening. The draft opinion was leaked to the press – something that is dangerous and unprecedented. Of course, there are reports that the leaker is a liberal clerk who hopes to change the outcome of the case. More news broke last night. According to the report Chief Justice John Roberts sided with Democrats in the decision. This is not a surprise considering Roberts’s liberal voting record. This also gives Democrats a target. They...

Sen. Ed Markey (D-MA) called for Congress to “expand” the Supreme Court on Monday, as activists chanted “pack the Court!” outside the building after a draft decision leaked that would overturn the Roe v. Wade (1973) decision on abortion. Court-packing refers to the idea of adding seats to the Supreme Court and immediately filling the vacancies with reliably loyal justices. President Franklin Delano Roosevelt threatened to pack the Court in the 1930s; left-wing Democrats revived the idea after the confirmation of Justice Brett Kavanaugh in 2018, which gave the Court a nominal 5-4 conservative majority that has since expanded to...

Published draft opinion shocks officials in Washington, prompts speculation about leaker's motive. ===================================================================== The CIA's "Family Jewels." Edward Snowden's revelations on surveillance and a FISA warrant. Former President Donald Trump's private conversations with world leaders. And now a purported draft Supreme Court opinion on abortion. Two decades of endless and consequential leaks have left behind a trail of institutional betrayal that have rocked Washington, and sometimes the world. Some believe the most recent leak was an effort to sabotage the Supreme Court's final opinion on what may be a landmark abortion case if the documents published Monday night by Politico...
