Troy University students this fall will have an opportunity to learn about moral and anti-woke business practices thanks to a free market center on campus. “The Free Enterprise Scholars program seeks to educate undergraduates about the morals and values of good and ethical business,” Professor Alan Mendenhall told The College Fix. The program will be hosted through the Manuel H. Johnson Center for Political Economy where Mendenhall is the executive director. The business professor explained the problem with corporations pushing liberal policies: When businesses advocate ‘woke’ policies and leftist social justice initiatives they seem to be responding to criticisms, real...

Ask anyone who has endured an abusive relationship, one of the worst forms of psychological manipulation that narcissistic abusers employ is gaslighting, wherein the abuser makes the abused party think they’re crazy. The corporate media has mastered this tactic with so-called “gender-affirming care,” refining it to a T. Legacy press outlets have insisted, in lockstep with a seemingly predetermined narrative, that “gender-affirming surgeries” are most assuredly not being performed on minors or they are minimizing them if they are. Those now scrutinizing the policies and practices at children’s hospitals nationwide are delusional right-wing lunatics threatening the hospital staff, they maintain....

Russian defence minister Sergei Shoigu is being 'side-lined' by Vladimir Putin and is constantly mocked by his own soldiers, the British ministry of defence has revealed. In its daily briefing, the MoD said the veteran politician who has held the defence post for 10 years is no longer the confidant and ally he previously was to the leader. Russia's failures in Ukraine after sustaining huge losses to personnel and equipment without making major inroads into the country have led to his ousting from Putin's inner circle. The head of the Russian military is no longer briefing Putin directly, with the...

Protesters breached Iraq’s presidential palace on Monday after an influential Shiite cleric announced his resignation from politics. A video released on Monday showed U.S. Embassy employees in Baghdad being evacuated by military helicopter for safety. Concerns of unrest have grown recently, with the U.S. Embassy in Iraq releasing a statement last week urging calm among all parties. “We are closely monitoring reports of unrest in Baghdad today at the Supreme Judicial Council,” the embassy said. “We urge all parties to remain calm, abstain from violence, and resolve any political differences through a peaceful process guided by the Iraqi constitution. We...

Tesla and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk spoke at a conference in Norway on Monday, and amid his announcement that he plans to have self-driving Teslas on the market by the end of the year, he made the admission to reporters that the transition away from fossil fuels is happening too quickly. Reuters reports that Musk told reporters he thinks “we need to use oil and gas in the short term, because otherwise civilization will crumble.” “One of the biggest challenges the world has ever faced is the transition to sustainable energy and to a sustainable economy,” he added. “That will...

Sen. Elizabeth Warren criticized Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell’s Friday speech in Jackson Hole, Wyo., telling CNN Sunday that she is worried that the central banker’s planned interest rate hikes will cause unnecessary economic suffering for average Americans.

Ukraine’s campaign to retake Russian-held territory in the south appeared to take a major step forward as officials on Monday announced the start of a long-awaited counter-offensive against Moscow’s forces. As explosions were reported across the southern frontline, multiple officials confirmed Ukraine’s armed forces had “breached” Russia’s first line of defences around occupied Kherson in social media posts. "The first line of Russian defences on the Kherson front has been breached,” Sergey Khlan, an aide to the ousted Ukrainian head of the Kherson region, said on the Telegram messaging app. "Today there was a powerful artillery attack on enemy positions...

Ms. Jay Langadinos can offer Hollywood celebrities a more realistic view of the horrific realities of the medical procedures associated with the popular cause of “transgenderism.” She, admittedly, got swept up with the romanticized image of “gender transitioning” and claims she was left “disfigured” and “disabled” having attempted to change from female to male, according to a lawsuit filed by Ms. Langadinos in Australia. Her anger is directed at a medical system, and more specifically, her psychiatrist, Dr. Patrick Toohey, with whom she met with for an alarmingly short period of time -- one session. He was to set in...

Thousands of years of civilizations (of all sorts) have demonstrated that there are certain foundations a society must have in order for humans to flourish and prosper generally. Human life must be valued. Property rights need to be respected. The nuclear family -- father, mother and children -- must be protected. People should -- for the most part -- keep their promises, including the payment of their debts. Laws and the legal system must respect these structures, enforce and protect them. America is in the process of dismantling the foundations of our society as quickly as our pandering politicians can...

Scientific 'Integrity'?The inevitable end result of "trusting the science."Mon Aug 29, 2022John Stossel "Trust the science," say the media. Polls show that fewer Americans do. There's good reason for that. "They don't trust science because science is increasingly untrustworthy," says science writer Andrew Follet in my new video. "The only group that trusts science right now is Democrats."Sixty-four percent of Democrats have "a great deal" of confidence in the scientific community, compared to 34% of Republicans. Of course, true science — using the scientific method — is important. But that's not what much of "science" is these days. Instead, today...

Paul Sperry is an independent journalist who pays attention to facts rather than following the mindless herd that is the mainstream media. That’s why he closely examined the Mar-a-Lago affidavit—or, at least, the parts that remained after DOJ was done with redacting it. That examination was fruitful because Sperry discovered all sorts of problems and inconsistencies on the document’s face (what little of it we can see). Also, I’ll use this post to remind everyone again that nothing in Trump’s possession is classified or can ever be considered classified (or top secret or anything else). Twitter booted Sperry from the...

President Joe Biden plans to visit Wilkes-Barre Pennsylvania on Tuesday, but Democrat Senate candidate John Fetterman will not be joining him. Biden plans to deliver remarks about crime and gun control and outline his “Safer America Plan” in reaction to a spike in crime in many of America’s major cities.

KYIV, Aug 29 (Reuters) - The Ukrainian military on Monday started a long-awaited counter-offensive against Russian forces in the country's south, its southern command said on Monday.Command spokesperson Natalia Humeniuk confirmed the offensive in a news briefing and said it included the Kherson region.Ukraine has regularly stated its intention to retake its south, and in particular the city of Kherson, the only regional capital that Russia has been able to capture from Ukraine since it invaded six months ago.The region lies north of the Russian-held Crimean peninsula and has coasts on the Black Sea and the Sea of Azov.

There Is No Such Thing as The Great ResetBy J. JohnsonThe fact that the title alone will ensure negative reactions from many justifies the reasons for saying it. This new master plan called ‘The Great Reset’ is the newest rave amongst Real Americans as the latest path to the inevitable Revelation 13:16-18, when those predicting the worst can say, “See, I told you so”.Perhaps it’s time to have an honest, sobering discussion about this ‘reset’, and how it’s affecting many Americans – long before it ever happens, and if it ever happens in the first place.The Great Reset, we are...

It is no secret that Canadian prime minister Justin Trudeau is a believer in and advocate for totalitarian forms of government. We recall his gushing eulogy for Cuban dictator Fidel Castro and his candid admiration for the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) with its facility for “turning on a dime” in making and executing policy. The fact that Miami has over the years become a haven for Cuban escapees and boat people and that Vancouver welcomes a steady stream of Chinese immigrants, who approximate 20% of the municipal census (as of 2019) and rising steeply like the city’s towering skyline where...

Amidst ongoing food supply chain issues and shortages in the U.S., House Democrats introduced a bill that would designate an extra $50,000,000 for food programs for migrants in addition to a baseline of $150,000,000. The bill, H.R. 8725, was sponsored by Representative Eleanor Norton, a Democrat representing the District of Columbia, on August 16th and has since been referred to the Committee on Appropriations. If enacted, the proposal would “provide supplemental appropriations for the Emergency Food and Shelter Program to provide humanitarian relief for migrants, and for other purposes,” according to the bill text. “There is appropriated, out of any...

A pair of Baltimore drug dealers threatened to shoot up the set of a new Natalie Portman show if they didn't stop filming on their block, but told production they could stay if they coughed up $50,000. The incident went down around 4pm on Friday afternoon on the 200 block of Park Avenue in Downtown Brooklyn, when two men pointed a gun at a crewmember of the Apple TV+ show Lady in the Lake and made their demands. According to the Baltimore Police Department, the 'locals' said they would 'come back later this evening [and] shoot someone' if they didn't...

At least 20 manufacturers have shifted operations to states with friendlier attitudes toward firearmsSmith & Wesson CEO Mark Smith was fed up. He was running the largest firearms manufacturer in America, based in Springfield, Mass., where it had been making weapons since 1860, and yet state lawmakers were considering a bill to ban the manufacture of AR-15-style rifles for the civilian market. The proposed law would cripple Smith’s company. Sixty percent of Smith & Wesson’s revenue came from AR-15-style guns.So after years of flirting with the idea, Smith announced last September that Smith & Wesson was pulling up stakes and...
