Attorney General Ken Paxton has successfully stopped an enforcement guidance issued under former President Joe Biden that sought to redefine the definition of “discrimination” to include self-professed “gender identity.” This unlawful rewrite of federal law would have opened private and state employers to lawsuits if they did not adopt sweeping “transgender” inclusive policies. “The Biden Administration unlawfully tried to twist federal law into a tool for advancing radical gender ideology by attempting to force employers to adopt ‘transgender’ policies or risk being sued,” said Attorney General Paxton. “The federal government has no right to force Texans to play along with...

The close relationship between the United States and Europe transcends geographic proximity and transactional politics. It represents a unique bond forged in common culture, faith, familial ties, mutual assistance in times of strife, and above all, a shared Western civilizational heritage. Our transatlantic partnership is underpinned by a rich Western tradition of natural law, virtue ethics, and national sovereignty. This tradition flows from Athens and Rome, through medieval Christianity, to English common law, and ultimately into America's founding documents. The Declaration's revolutionary assertion that men “are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights” echoes the thought of Aristotle, Thomas...

The Heritage Foundation is proposing that the U.S. wind down military aid to Israel as part of a strategy to “re-orient its relationship” with the country over the next two decades, a notable stance for the prominent conservative think tank given the long and deep support for Israel among conservatives and Republicans. The Heritage report on moving the U.S.-Israel strategy, “From Special Relationship to Strategic Partnership,” was crafted by its defense experts and released on Wednesday. “Just as Israel once advanced from a financial assistance recipient to an economic partner of the United States, so, too, should it move from...

Washington -- President-elect Donald Trump wants to travel to China after he takes office as part of his effort to deepen relations with Beijing, and also has talked to advisors about visit to India, a media report said Saturday. Trump, who arrived at the Dulles International Airport aboard a special plane along with First Lady Melania and son Barron, had during his election campaign threatened to impose additional tariffs on China. “President-elect Donald Trump has told advisors he wants to travel to China after he takes office, according to people familiar with the discussions, seeking to deepen a relationship with...

Open Letter To Mark Williams: For Heritage And Freedom Dear Mark, you and your dad now stand together in a grassroots arts display at a national heritage site in the fourth biggest country in the world, the Republic Of Indonesia. The site, Air Kaca, is sacred to the memory of General Douglas MacArthur, sometimes known as The Saviour Of Australia. I find it amazing, Mark, that your dad achieved everything he achieved in football, after starting his senior career at the age of 24, because for five years he sacrificed playing sport to join the fight against fascism and imperialism...

We seem to be beginning yet another season of a perennially popular American spectacle, “How Much Is That Mulatto in the Window?” I frequently think that, after 400 years, this show is about to go off the air — jump the shark, as it were. But then it returns, with ever more absurd plot lines. Yet, even as a so-called mulatto myself, I can’t stop watching. The Hollywood pitch goes something like this: Put a racially ambiguous Black person in the public eye — Kamala, Meghan, Barack. Have them declare themselves Black. Count down the minutes before the world erupts...

Senator Lindsey Graham (R-SC) said on this week’s broadcast of “Fox News Sunday” that former President Trump should not discuss Vice President Harris’ race. Wednesday, in an interview at the National Association of Black Journalists convention, Trump said, “She was always of Indian heritage. She was only promoting Indian heritage. I didn’t know she was black until a number of years ago when she happened to turn black. Now she wants to be known as black. So I don’t know, is she Indian or is she black?”

In 2020 CNN did an entire segment on Kamala's Indian heritage and how that shaped her political beliefs

Just one day after the announcement of Joe Biden’s withdrawal from the 2024 presidential race, his Department of Justice reported that it has located a transcript of a Biden interview that it previously said did not exist. The DOJ admitted to a federal judge Monday that there are, in fact, transcripts of Biden’s meetings with his biographer, Mark Zwonitzer, for Biden’s 2007 and 2017 memoirs... ... We don’t have some transcript that’s been created by the special counsel that we can attest to its accuracy,” Justice Department lawyer Cameron Silverberg said during a June 18 regarding a suit brought by...

And it’s clear there is far more going on under the hood than meets the eye. Firstly, it all ties into the Trump assassination attempt and ongoing Congressional testimony of Director of Secret Service Kimberly Cheatle. The testimony has revealed there are likely a lot of things being hidden from the public about the would-be assassin Thomas Crooks’, and particularly his potential dealings with the FBI.### Now there’s an investigation by Heritage foundation showing that a digital device visiting Crooks’ home multiple times has been geo-located to having gone to the vicinity of an FBI office in Washington DC in...

A storm is brewing as lawmakers and the public demand answers following the assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump. On Monday, U.S. Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle found herself at the center of a heated congressional hearing, addressing security lapses that could have ended disastrously. Bipartisan frustration has been palpable as representatives from both sides of the aisle have confronted Cheatle and questioned the Secret Service. The shooting in Pennsylvania has led to calls from several lawmakers for Cheatle’s resignation. Now, the Oversight Project, a watchdog group with the Heritage Foundation, released a report that could potentially link Thomas...

It’s not perfect, but it’s also not the blueprint for authoritarianism. Far from it.Project 2025, a suggested roadmap for a second Trump Administration pulled together by the Heritage Foundation, is a nearly 1,000-page document written by a bunch of think tankers and right-wing policy experts running the gamut of conservatism.President Joe Biden says the document “should scare every single American.” Democrats, one strategist told the Washington Post, need to “instill fear in the American people.” Donald Trump and his surrogates are already distancing the candidate from the effort.So, I decided to read it. Listen, it wasn’t easy. But the chances...

Democrat party media seems to be fixated now on "Project 2025". Has anyone here even heard of it? MSNBC especially seems to think this is an important, burning issue. I'm sure they are distorting whatever it is. As far as I know it's just policy proposals put out by the Heritage Foundation. Trump says he has nothing to do with it. Here's what The Hill saying about it: The 900-page 2025 Presidential Transition Project is a “governing agenda” filled with conservative priorities and insight from scholars and policy experts. It is divided into sections based on five main topics —...

A major conservative activist group is preparing for legal battles in case the Democratic Party chooses to pull President Biden out of the running before or after he becomes the nominee. The Heritage Foundation, one of the United States' most prominent and well-connected conservative activist groups, is laying the groundwork in case a sudden switch-up in the Democratic roster sparks a legal war. "We are monitoring the calls from across the country for President Biden to step aside, either now or before the election, and have concluded that the process for substitution and withdrawal is very complicated," Executive Director of...

Today marks the third Juneteenth America has officially celebrated as a federal holiday. The country would be a whole lot better without it. We already have a black holiday with Martin Luther King Day. We didn’t need another one, especially one that its proponents wanted to weaponize to browbeat America into giving reparations. Juneteenth enshrines the false idea that blacks are the protagonists of American history while whites are its villains. When this was first made a holiday, I thought it might one day supplant Independence Day in importance. It was a year after George Floyd. America appeared well on...

A Regina family has stumbled upon what one company is calling “the greatest unopened find of the 21st century” that could be worth millions. According to Heritage Auctions, the family found an unopened case of 1979-80 O-Pee-Chee hockey cards that are the only known case from Wayne Gretzky’s rookie season, which would mean a pretty penny for serious collectors. The case features 16 boxes of 48 packs with 14 cards per pack, meaning there are 10,752 cards in the unopened case. And while many of those cards won’t be worth much, there could be several that could be worth thousands...

Great 3m32s video, excellent summary of the lies the Left/Globalists are pushing. Hit the source link.

While lying has been with us from time immemorial. In today’s age it is different, in most respects worse. “Age of Deception” -- simple words, yet together they convey danger. Deception is defined as the act of hiding the truth to gain an advantage. Simply put -- lying. An age is a division of time, an era. These three words are often referred to in books dealing with treacherous epochs. Even the Bible references these words, describing an era of deception against God’s people. Crafty truths about doctrine which leads humanity towards end times. Plato stated “False words are not...
