BOB UNRUH — A new analysis on the creation of the mRNA shots that were purported to help victims fight the COVID-19 virus that came out of a Chinese research lab and killed millions worldwide shows that they were imposed on Americans by bypassing all of the "laws or regulations that we count on to protect us from potentially harmful, or deadly, medical products…"...

THE FEDERALIST — To say that contemporary Western culture is not family-friendly would be something of an understatement. Rather, it’s positively hostile to families. Whether it’s popular entertainment, schools, politicians, or even one’s neighbors, parents and their children are regularly pushed into terminal dysfunction. Virtue is derided while vices are celebrated; confusion and contradiction frequently overwhelm decency and common sense; and the feeling of optimism and commitment to excellence is now smothered by widespread anxiety and nihilism. As one would expect in such an environment, marriage and birth rates continue to plummet with little hope of recovering.... (more)

JERRY NEWCOMBE — History is filled with people who quit too early, and thus never fulfilled their key task in life. With a new year upon us, it’s good to think about how God pours His blessings on those who persist. Even when facing adversity, when the time comes, they push forward with what they feel He has called them to do. Of course, in the eight Beatitudes of Jesus (“Blessed are…”), He never said, “Blessed are the persistent.” But throughout the Bible, we do find encouragements to press on, to keep plugging away at doing the right thing....

PJ MEDIA — Democrat strategists and talking heads were gobsmacked to see so many working-class people vote for Donald Trump in 2016.

WORLDNETDAILY — Former President Donald Trump's sprawling Mar-a-Lago estate boasts high ceilings. During the holidays, it also features a towering Christmas tree.

THE FEDERALIST — If it wasn’t obvious before now that the left will do anything to stop Donald Trump from winning a second term in the White House, the events of the last few days should leave no doubt in any American’s mind.

DAVID KUPELIAN — It was Dec. 21, 2016, the darkest day of the year. I was working in my garage, trying to repair something using a hacksaw. It was cold. I was sawing strenuously and at an uncomfortable angle. I was tired, stressed and a little frustrated. Suddenly I felt a strange and complex pain radiating through my chest, something I had never experienced before. I stopped working and gave the pain my full attention, but it didn't subside. I went into the house and told my wife, Jean, to stay close by, because "I might be having a heart attack."... (more)
