Thank You for Your Service

From Whence Comes Our Freedom?
Not surprisingly, Speaker Pelosi is now defending Rep Adam Schiff's parody transcript -- which he himself said was made up -- as the truth about what was said on the phone call between President Trump and Ukrainian President Zelensky.

The Disease of Prosperity Cured by Capitalism
Alyssa Ahlgren, writing for The Foundation of Economic Education, said: “My generation has only seen prosperity. We have no contrast.

The Omen of Notre Dame
While much of the world grieves over the fire at the Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris, Muslims are rejoicing in it's smoke and ashes. We will most likely never hear the truth, but I will never believe it was anything but a terrorist act of arson committed by radical Islamic Muslims.
