Will This Be The Most Anti-American Independence Day Yet? | Opinion BRYAN GRIFFINON 7/1/21 AT 6:00 AM EDT   We are just a few days from the Fourth of July, and many who bear witness to current cultural trends are asking the obvious question: are we in for the most anti-American Independence Day yet? While some will proudly fly the American flag this Fourth, others will burn it. This divisive mood has been fed by school curricula, university syllabi, and corporate employee trainings that paint a dark picture of the formation of our country. Critical Race Theory (CRT), like other forms of Marxism, insists that the primary characteristic of any society is the conflict between its people. CRT divides people into two basic and conflicting camps—oppressors and the oppressed—on the basis of physical differences. CLICK HERE TO READ THE FULL ARTICLE

Is It Time to Cancel Darwin? Today’s society is hyper-sensitive to anything that is or was, racist. The perception of racism is so “critical” that we have to change our lexicon (no more “Brown Bag Lunch”); forego long-established disciplines (Mathematics, for instance); abstain from the masterpieces (Shakespeare, Mozart, and others); even “climate change” and Dr. Seuss have not escaped the new race police. These seemingly innocuous issues linked to racism are one part of Grievance Studies called Critical Race Theory where everything and everyone (except for white males) are victims of racial discrimination which must be eliminated, changed, or apologized for. When the racial police come after someone or something, they continually attack online; in the media; and, in growing numbers of incidents, in person. The point of the attacks is to “cancel” the object of revulsion – statues must be torn down; buildings must be renamed; history must be rewritten, and white people must grovel. This brings me to Darwin, who, along with Karl Marx are the saviors to the Left. Both men wrote their tomes in the mid-1800s, (from a very white Europe I might add). Both were white males, misogynists, and racists – strike one. I would also add that both men were also anti-religion, anti-freedom, and anti-Semites. Darwin’s book, On the Origin of Species, has been retitled over the years with publishers quietly dropping more than half of the original title from later printings. The book had been titled, On the Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection or the Preservation of Favored Races in the Struggle for Life (emphasis mine). In his later book, Descent of Man, Darwin makes very clear that his “favored race” is Caucasian calling all others savage and uncivilized. Karl Marx took Darwin’s evolutionary ideas in the physical realm and applied them to the social and economic realm with the estimated results to be at least 100 million people killed and countless others imprisoned, tortured, or worse. Those 100 million people were citizens of countries under Marx’s philosophy who were killed by their own state, not enemies killed in wars of expansion. Let that sink in for a moment – that means that leaders in these countries sanctioned the killing of their own citizens in order to keep control. Why? Because it defies human nature, squashes freedom, and kills innovation. Plato himself came to that conclusion when contemplating his Socialist Utopia in Republic. There is clear causation between evolution presented as science and the horrors of the 20th century perpetrated by Nazis, Soviets, and others. If we all came from nothing, then what value is human life? Eugenics is just a way for humans to “help” the evolutionary process. Racism is nothing more than recognizing the evolutionary progression of one “species” over another (Darwin used species and race interchangeably). I understand that Logic has been removed from schools and common sense is no longer very common, but based on the recent calls for everything the United States embodies to be canceled because we had slaves and segregation (news-flash: nearly every country on the planet has slavery in their history), shouldn’t we also cancel other philosophies that have perpetuated the same?

Jordan Kirkland - December 19th, 2018 Tuesday night, Hillsborough County Republican Party Chairman, Jim Waurishuk, a retired USAF Colonel, solidified and consolidated his power through 2020 with Tuesday night’s unanimous re-election victory as party Chairman. Waurishuk, a staunch and loyal Trump supporter, is considered by many Republican leaders and insiders across the state as one of the most powerful county chairman in Florida. Aside from this position, Waurishuk also serves on the Republican Party of Florida’s Executive Board, and is one of the state’s 27 Congressional District -14 Caucus Chairman.

By Mike Kersmarki   Ronald Reagan’s iconic 11th commandment to “not speak ill of any fellow Republican” is meaningless without context.

By Mike Kersmarki   Just like some Republican Congressional leaders have lost touch with many Americans on stopping the immigration madness, the GOP’s five Hillsborough County Commissioners are now out of step with grassroots Republicans AND Democrats.

The commission’s two Democrats voted no. Continue reading

by Allen West Back in 1998 I was assigned to the 1st Battalion (Air Assault), 377th Field Artillery Regiment at Ft. Bragg as the Executive Officer, second in command. The Battalion was nicknamed the “Gunslingers”, and my call sign was Gunslinger 5. Ours was a unique mission in that we were a medium caliber, 155mm, cannon artillery unit whose mission was to train and be employed on the battlefield via helicopter insertion. Our soldiers had to be some really gutsy Bubbas to stand on top of a sling load prepped cannon while an Army CH-47 helicopter comes down overhead…and secure the artillery piece to the sling load towing hook of the chopper. And yes, they had to do that in pitch black darkness. That is why our Battalion motto was four simple words, “Be Bold, Air Assault”. Continue reading

by Gary Galles                                      www.mises.org/blog   Recently, Harvard political theorist Danielle Allen wrote in the Washington Post of “The most important phrase in the Pledge of Allegiance” — “with liberty and justice for all.”  Allen recognized that justice required “equality before the law” and that freedom exists “only when it is for everyone.” But she confused democracy — defined as progressives “build[ing] a distributed majority across the country, as is needed for electoral college victory” — with liberty, which is very different. Similarly, she replaced the traditional meaning of justice (“giving each his own,” according to Cicero) with a version of “social justice” inconsistent with it. And her two primary examples of rights — “rights” to education and health care — were inconsistent with both liberty for all and justice for all.   Continue reading

Love told the moving story of her parents, who came to America 41 years ago from Haiti and her parent’s decision to let her live even though it may have been more “convenient” for the young immigrants to do what progressive leftists urge — have an abortion. “It was inconvenient for them to find out they were pregnant with their third,” Love explained about her parent’s choice. “Because both had to work multiple jobs to make ends meet. Some would say it would have been easier for them to have an abortion but this couple had to make a difficult choice to protect the life of their child or always wonder what might have been,” Love told the huge crowd rallying in Washington, D.C.

With the stroke of a pen, the president assaulted the heart of the law that was the domestic centerpiece of his predecessor’s administration. How did this happen?
