JOSEPH FARAH — When Elizabeth and I founded WorldNetDaily, or WND.com, it debuted as the first internet-only journalism organization back in 1997. It was also an avowedly conservative and Christian publication. It still is, 26 years later. In the early days of American newspapers, most were founded as Christian. Just as Yale, Harvard and many of the first universities were founded as Christian institutions, so were newspapers. Sometimes, for many generations in fact, newspapers and universities promoted and advanced America's Christian culture.... (more)

WAYNE ALLYN ROOT — We learned several things from the GOP debate Wednesday night. Former President Donald J. Trump was the biggest winner – by a mile. First, he won by not showing up and having to lower himself to fight the entire gang of also-rans who want his old job. Second, by not participating, Trump won by taking all the attention away from the competition – thereby depriving anyone on that stage of gaining ground on Trump's huge 40-point lead.... (more)

WORLDNETDAILY — I will probably lose good friends over this, but it has to be said. Traditional unions, such as the Autoworkers or Longshoreman, perform a valuable service for their members. They negotiate wages, benefits and to some extent employment levels within private corporations. I have no problem with this.... (more)

FLORIDIAN PRESS — As mask mandates return in certain parts of the country, Florida Surgeon General Joseph Ladapo is telling people to not comply.

These terrible policies only work with your cooperation. How about refusing to participate"... (more)

JOHN GIZZI — More than a few political prognosticators who do not have a favorite Republican candidate told Newsmax on Wednesday night that the true winner of the first GOP presidential debate was actually the contender who sat it out. "The winner was [former President] Donald Trump and the losers were all candidates not named Donald Trump," said historian and Chapman University Prof. Luke Nichter. "And the key moment was when the others tried to be combative and Trump-like to try to break through."... (more)

THE HILL — Megyn Kelly went after Fox News’s first GOP presidential debate Wednesday night, calling the evening “lame,” with poor questions and without a clear winner.

JOSEPH FARAH — It took Joe Biden two weeks to make it to Hawaii after the devastating wildfires that likely will have killed upwards of 1,000 people as some 850 are still missing. It was not a good day for him, after he compared the disaster to his own apocryphal kitchen fire in his Delaware home in 2004. Biden was met with obscene catcalls as his motorcade passed rows of disgruntled residents who had received $700 checks after losing their homes.... (more)

PETER LABARBERA — With new COVID variants, including BA.2.86 and EG.5, in the news, the same media and activists on the Left who were most fanatical about masks and other heavy-handed COVID policies during the pandemic are now pushing mask mandates again. Conservatives warned it could be a precursor to a return to oppression in the name of fighting COVID, and vowed collectively not to "comply."... (more)

PJ MEDIA — If you’ve read my stuff before, you know I’ve taken it upon myself to be the Paul Revere of the Great Reset, if Paul Revere drove a 2005 Mazda Tribute. #HateToBrag. Klaus Schwab and his evil teams of toilet people aren’t trying to hide their plans for global domination. Quite the contrary, they write and speak openly about how they intend to impound our cars and purloin our sirloin for cleaner clouds or something.... (more)

DICK MORRIS — Whenever an inexperienced neophyte runs for president and ventures into foreign policy, he almost always puts his foot in his mouth due to ignorance and lack of preparation. Now Vivek Ramaswamy, an interesting candidate, has made a big blunder by calling for a cut in U.S. aid to Israel. He even wants its hostile Arab neighbors to get U.S. aid equal to what Israel gets.... (more)

WORLDNETDAILY — The CIA is being sued over helping the Joe Biden campaign in 2020 unleash the so-called "Dirty 51" letter through which a list of former intelligence officials sought to interfere in the election by describing the Hunter Biden laptop scandal as Russian disinformation.... (more)

WAYNE ALLYN ROOT — Folks, now you know it. I know it. Everyone with a brain knows it. Even Democrats (deep down) know it. The 2020 election was stolen. The debate is over. How do I know? Because both the feds and Georgia just indicted our former President Donald Trump for talking about, questioning, and trying to investigate a stolen election. When the communist thugs, bullies and tyrants make it a crime to question a stolen election, in a country built around free speech, it's 100% proof they stole the election.... (more)

BOB UNRUH — Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich has released a bombshell about the latest indictment, from the state of Georgia, of President Donald Trump.

JERRY NEWCOMBE — Last week, in scanning various headlines, I was delighted to see—among all the bad news—this story: “George Washington’s 110 Rules of Civility.” The link they have brings the reader to the Mount Vernon website. This isn’t advice George Washington doled out. Rather, it’s a series of aphorisms that he learned as a youth that greatly impacted his life. If you want to know what made the father of our country tick, read the “Rules of Civility.”... (more)

JOSEPH FARAH — See how easy it is to sue the government and Google for censoring all of us? All it takes is a little money and the will to do it. Like Robert F. Kennedy Jr. A federal magistrate judge has set an emergency hearing on Kennedy request for a temporary restraining order barring Google from censoring his speech on YouTube during the 2024 campaign. Kennedy, a candidate for the Democratic Party's presidential nomination, filed a complaint in the U.S. District Court Northern District of California against Google, LLC and its wholly owned subsidiary YouTube, LLC, last week....

THE FEDERALIST — Hillary Clinton — the woman who to this day denies the results of the 2016 election and whose campaign is responsible for the treasonous Russia-collusion hoax — should be facing her own criminal election “conspiracy” charges, instead of cheering on the Fulton County, Georgia, indictment against former President Donald Trump and 18 of his lawyers and advisers for challenging the 2020 election....
