You in a heap o’ trouble, boy!
I’ve used this headline several times before, but it always seems appropriate. I will admit to some surprise, because my source, The Philadelphia Inquirer, told us more than they might have.
Culture
The Loneliest Generation
You probably missed this information, but loneliness was recently listed as an epidemic by the US Surgeon General and the World Health Network. That’s how big of a deal this is.
Guess What? Enforcing Our Immigration Laws Actually Works!
Illegal immigration was Donald Trump’s primary issue in 2016, and again in 2024. If President Biden had retained just his predecessor’s immigration policies, it’s fair to ask the Democrats whether Mr Trump would be President today.
America’s New Warfighting Military: Old Blood and Guts Would Be Proud
Late last month, Secretary of War Pete Hegseth told an unprecedented gathering of generals, admirals, commanders, and senior NCOs that from this moment on, the only mission of the newly named Department of War is this: “warfighting, preparing for war, and preparing to win, [and being] unrelenting and uncompromising in that pursuit.”
Living Behind Enemy Lines, Tale #64: Seattleites Give Off A Strange Vibe
My manicurist, Monica, told me she could spot Seattleites the minute she saw them. “They give off a vibe,” she said. She was seeing more & more Seattleites since a strange, expensive “campground” opened up nearby.
The Charlie Effect
This was the largest attendance ever for a Turning Point USA event and one of the few that was held indoors. Us “Get Real” pundits discuss The Charlie Effect. We also discuss the Schumer Shutdown and how Democrats have stabbed themselves in the foot.
Blue In the Face
Well, I guess it’s official: I’m now “blue in the face.” The kind of blue that frustrated people get when they’ve said something so many times, they say they’ve done it ‘til they’re “blue in the face.”
A Letter From Saint Paul to Today’s American Believers
If Paul were alive in our time, he would not remain silent—he would write to the churches in America, urging them back to faithfulness in Christ and away from the snares of our culture.
The United Nations Betrays Its Mission, Again
Israel’s longest-serving Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, stood to address the United Nations on Friday, September 26, and much of the room walked out. The world press paints this as a repudiation. The world is wrong.
Today’s America Hating Migrants vs. the Huddled Masses of the Past
My mother’s grandparents and parents saw America for what it was: a land of freedom and opportunity. They loved the country that gave them opportunities that 19th-century Europe could not, or would not, provide.
Charlie Kirk: Turning Points in This Time (Part 2)
Charlie Kirk’s life mattered because Jonathan Edwards and George Whitefield’s lives mattered. Likewise, Charles Finney and Lyman Beecher. Dwight Moody after that. Those ministers may not be household names, but Americans think and live differently because they lived.
Mass Shootings
The TV was showing footage of the latest mass shooting. This shooting happened in a Michigan church. Of all places. An LDS church. Four dead. Eight injured.
FBI Agents Terminated
FBI agents cannot surrender the field to rioters, nor express a political view while on duty.
Charlie Kirk: Turning Points in This Time (Part 1)
Charlie Kirk was assassinated. He will be an American political and cultural icon for some time to come. He is an explicitly American Christian martyr for the ages.
America’s Real Religion: The Church of Me, Myself, and I (Satanism)
We love to brag that the Constitution keeps us free from a national religion. But America does have a religion. And many in this country practice it. It’s not Christianity, Judaism, Islam, or Buddhism. It’s Satanism.
DACOWITS: 74 Years of Social Experimentation and Blood Soaked Outcomes
The Defense Advisory Committee on Women in the Services (DACOWITS) billed itself as a “voice for progress.” In reality, it became something far more dangerous: the longest-running social science experiment on the backs of America’s fighting men and women.
Unholy uproar: The politics of prayer
Few events in recent times have drawn as much scrutiny and commentary as the assassination at Utah Valley University of conservative and Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk.
Classical Christian Education: A Path Forward to American Renewal
I anticipate that many readers of this article would agree that the quality of education in America has been in a steady state of decline for decades.
Yesterday, I Set Out to Change America
It was only an experiment. I wanted to see if I could change America in only one day by being the nicest person on earth for 24 hours.
Trump Opens a Big Can of Whoop Ass on the United Nations
President Trump finally did what other American presidents have failed to do: he opened a can of verbal whoop ass on the United Nations.
