Right now we have an opportunity to push back against ESG and reclaim part of our country from the globalist elites. For the past year, Tennessee has been working hard to limit the power of financial conglomerates like BlackRock to impose ESG standards on businesses statewide, and lawmakers are finally ready to make a big play. The Tennessee state treasurer has made great strides in anti-ESG policy, but as of right now, the changes are at risk of being undone. That's why Tennessee legislators are trying to pass "The Tennessee ESG bill," designed to cement the anti-ESG policy into state...

Part of the call.... "Antifa fears us for good reason, because our men are highly trained, competent, and fearless, and this serves as an effective deterrent to prevent Antifa even attempting to attack people we are protecting. To date, not one person we have protected has had even a hair on their head touched by Antifa and we aim to keep it that way. We ALWAYS have a mix of LEOs and military, as well as highly skilled martial artists, in each of our teams. As we have done on all recent DC Ops, we will also have well armed...

The Issue With Omar and AOC by Louis Foxwell The issue with Omar and AOC is not that they are stupid, which they are, it is that they have the heart and soul of a mob squeeze. These women speak out of a clarity of understanding of crime. As elite members of an elite crime family and made mols, they know they are safe. This gives them the psychological freedom to condemn the very actions in others that they are permitted to engage in daily. The Democrat party is a crime family. Understanding that simple truth clarifies everything. The Clintons...

Madison (WKOW) -- There's an online petition being circulated to remove the Bishop of the Diocese of Madison. Bishop Robert Morlino is being criticized for his attitude about the LGTBQ community. Earlier this week, an email was sent to priests in the diocese saying that they could deny funeral rights for those in same-sex partnerships. The diocese released a statement that said the communication is not official policy, but does meet the approval of Bishop Morlino. The petition was posted on change.org Thursday and has thousands of signatures. Here is the statement from diocese on the matter, as submitted to...

<p>Newt Gingrich said that conservatives will have to accept marriage equality after three more states this year voted to allow same sex marriage and more will likely do the same in the 2014 election.</p> <p>The former Speaker of the House said he didn’t expect gay rights to become the “wave” issue it has, but that he can accept the difference between a marriage in a church and a legal document, reported Huffington Post.</p>

*snip* A veterans groups called The Veteran Defenders of America has now answered that question. In a documented Call-to-Action titled a – A Declaration to Restore the Constitutional Republic – former Military and Law Enforcement Officers have come together to demand that all oath-takers immediately execute their oaths in preservation of the Constitutional Republic. At present, every member of the Military, Law Enforcement, Justice, Congress and federal employment is in direct violation of their oaths.

Leftist anti-American, terrorist-supporting groups have announced they will hold a "non-violent direct action" protest at the White House on Monday, October 5th calling for the complete withdrawal of American forces from the Afghanistan and Pakistan theaters in the war on terror, thereby giving victory to al Qaeda and the Taliban.One of the groups leaders is Code Pink's Jodie Evans, an early and top financier of Barack Obama's presidential campaign.

NEW YORK, NY, June 19, 2009 (C-FAM) - A year-and-a-half after the "Global 'Safe Abortion'" conference took place in London, abortion advocates Marie Stopes International and Ipas just released the conference report detailing the abortion movement’s worldwide strategy. While organizers claimed that the primary objective of the conference was to "save women's lives and reduce maternal mortality," the report reveals that participants prioritized a so-called "right" to "safe and legal abortion" above all else – dismissing any evidence of its harmful effects on women and even denying the right of conscientious medical professionals to object to participating in abortions. The...

On Feb. 18th of 2009, Mr. Robinson posted a thread entitled, Call to action:Possible Action Items for FReeper Conventions. Please consider this both a call for other state chapters to organize, and for the Ohio board to begin organizing local meetings geared towards an eventual freeper grassroots action convention. Now, it is only a personal suggestion that we start at a local level, if you believe that your board already has sufficient cohesion to begin organizing at a state or regional level, then go for it.As conservatives of different stripes, its our right to act as individuals, however, its this...

From a Chicago Tribune piece (May 31, 2008) titled, "Catholic activists mark the end of an era": In the late 1970s, with memories of Vietnam still raw and the Cold War raging, hundreds of activists rallied in peace and justice movements, pressing the government for change. Here in Chicago, a former priest and a former nun saw a chance for similar activism within the Roman Catholic Church. In 1976, Dan and Sheila Daley launched Call To Action, a group of Catholics seeking to act out God's vision in society and hold leaders accountable. Hmmm..."similar activism"—that is, not just questioning authority,...

Last week, the West Coast Call to Action had its conference in San Jose. This blogs links to a video of the Closing Liturgy. Here’s a direct link to the video.Playing “spot the liturgical abuse” is not the point. Nor is snarking at the average age of the participants. (Just heading off the predictable commentary at the pass here. Let’s go deeper.)What I am just not grasping, despite my pretty strong powers of empathy, is the gestalt at work here.Why does everyone think the giant liturgical puppets are so awesome?This has got to be one of the oddest things...

ASSEMBLY REPUBLICANS COLLAPSING ON BUDGET TONIGHT! THE VOTE IS SCHEDULED FOR 8:15 PM TONIGHT. PLEASE CONTACT ASSEMBLY AND SENATE REPUBLICAN OFFICES AND DEMAND THAT THEY HOLD FIRM FOR A BALANCED BUDGET. The Assembly is convening tonight to adopt another seriously out-of-balance state budget (SB 77). Worse, it sets in motion obligations that will cause a catastrophic shortfall for the following year. And worst of all, it plans on continuing the process of “escheat,” in which the state controller loots safe deposit boxes, retirement and college funds – any assets that are idle for just three years – to deposit in...

Brace yourself, Bishop B. You've been "targeted" by the power hitters at National Call To Action, who intend to bombard you with fragrant and well-spelled letters indicting you for failure to comply with the alternative sexualities audit conducted by the Office of Child & Youth Protection. And not only that, but the CTA folks are ratting you out to Bishop William Skylstad, whose own diocese -- so punctilious are its pastors -- has complied itself into receivership. The NCR reports: Nicole Sotelo, codirector of national Call to Action, said her organization intends to mount a letter-writing campaign to Lincoln, Neb.,...

Dec. 7, 2006 (CWNews.com) - The Vatican has confirmed an American bishop's decision to excommunicate members of the dissident group Call to Action. Call to Action is "causing damage to the Church of Christ," wrote Cardinal Giovanni Battista Re (bio - news), the prefect of the Congregation for Bishops, in a letter to Bishop Fabian Bruskewitz of Lincoln, Nebraska. In March 1996, Bishop Bruskewitz had announced the excommunication of all Catholics in his diocese who were members of Call to Action or several other dissident groups which he described as "totally incompatible with the Catholic faith." The Nebraska chapter of...
