America is going through some dark days right now -- true. But America has never just been a plot of land; it's always been something more. It's always been a spirit -- and a spirit can't be killed. Perhaps it's time to focus more on selling the dream of America, and less on talking up the doom. Even with all the threats to freedoms, there is much to admire and love about this country. If someone were to ask you, 'what's so great about America, anyway?' -- would you have an answer at the ready? You should be able to rattle off 10, 20, 30 or more things without even thinking. If you can't, then perhaps it's time to refocus and think less on the doom and more on the dream. Major Scott Huesing, USMC retired, agrees, and his endeavor, Save the Brave, advances just that notion -- despite the fact it's a campaign aimed at drawing awareness to veterans' suicides.

Selling the Dream of America, Not the Doom

America's enemies are many, but in the matchup of China versus the deep state, it's difficult to discern which is worse. Even now, this administration is dealing with China via conciliation and appeasement, seemingly hoping that the communist government will one day realize its communism is bad for freedom and that America's model of individualism over collectivism is the better model. That's a ridiculous, head-in-the-sand approach to foreign policy. But then again, this administration's deep state forces are alive and active, on the hunt to take down Donald Trump and keep him from office any way possible, including -- though not limited to -- more indictments, more fabricated charges, more deceptive accusations that could ultimately lead to jail. If Trump is only the face of the pro-America, America First movement, and the attacks against Trump are really the attacks against patriotic, pro-America, America First citizens -- then really, which is more dangerous for this country: China or the deep state? John Mills, former military leader and government insider, discusses.

China or the Deep State: Which is Most Dangerous

One of the most common throwbacks at the faces of Christians who call out sin is to say, "Hey, you're not supposed to judge." But guess what: that's a bit of a skewing of biblical truths. Yes, it's true, Christians aren't supposed to determine an individual's final placement as heaven or hell; Christians aren't supposed to say, for example, "May you rot in hell." But those of faith are tasked with the responsibility for calling out evil and fighting evil, and how can that task be accomplished if no judgments are issued? Besides, there's this thing called discernment, and it's a gift of the spirit that helps distinguish between good and evil. Dan Darling, media pundit, best-selling author and teacher of all-things-faith, joins the discussion.

Christians Must Judge

Do you go to church? There are studies showing that church isn't just a positive for spiritual development, but also good for mental and physical health. One recent study of 19,000 participants actually found that those who go to church are less lonely -- and that means they don't engage in the behaviors of the lonely. And if you take into consideration the finding that lonely people, on average, live 15 years less than non-lonely people, you could actually say: Going to church is a life-saver. J.P. Degance, president of Communio, chats about church and the many, many reasons to attend.

Why Go To Church? 

Polls show that the more Donald Trump is attacked, the more he seems to gain in favor with his base. And that has the Democrats and their partners in global governments going crazy. Many on the left cannot understand why Trump continues to draw support -- but then again, many on the left can. They're not clueless on the Trump Factor; they're fearful. They know if Trump is again in the White House, he will be armed with not only determination to make America great again, but with the knowledge of the deep state, from a personal, first-hand, up-front perspective. That will make him a force the globalists cannot fight. Former governor and presidential candidate Mike Huckabee discusses Trump, the state of America and the problems with media -- and more.

America in Moral Crisis as Globalism Comes on Strong

Americans used to believe in the concept of free speech. But that ideal is rapidly disappearing, and it's due to mostly far leftists pushing the need for government control onto the minds of developing youth. Today's younger generations are being taught that yes, while free speech is great for healthy democracies, some speech nevertheless is dangerous and in need of control. And guess who they're being told needs to control the deemed dangerous speech? Government, of course. Conservatives have been a bit asleep at this wheel for years, allowing things like free speech zones on college campuses to go forth, and dabbling with Democrats to debate hate speech and hate crimes and so forth. It's time to reel back the clock and remind: speech is God-given. Americans don't need government to tell them what's proper to talk about -- and what's not. John Solomon, founder of Just the News, has a children's book, "Hidden Headlines," to teach the younger generations in the proper pro-American way to go.

Free Speech Is A God-Given Right

George Soros

If George Soros is the man behind the multi-million dollar funding of local prosecutors' races, and his agenda is to slow the roll on prosecutors actually doing their prosecutorial duties -- and that leads to more criminals in the streets, committing more crimes -- then wouldn't it be logical to wonder: Does he have blood on his hands? The influences of Soros money on law and order in the United States are growing, and that's not good news for those who think the streets ought to be safe and secure and cleared of the criminal element. Cully Stimson discusses his new "Rogue Prosecutors" and why every American should care.

George Soros, Blood on His Hands?

Tucker Carlson

Polls steadily show that Americans do not trust the media. But a recent survey also shows that Americans by and large actually think the media are trying to deceive them -- that members of the media are actively and strategically planting lies on air and in the news pages as a means of pressing a narrative for the left. And that's called propaganda. Big corporations have certainly damaged much of journalism's integrity by forcing news employees to put profits ahead of principle and truth. But so has the deep state. Operation Mockingbird, anyone? Tucker Carlson is the latest and perhaps largest casualty of corporate media attack. Chadwick Moore, author of "Tucker," sheds light on Carlson's career, family, character and fight against Fox, which is very much alive and ongoing.

Tucker Carlson and the Misleading Media

How do you define success? If it's by the number in your bank account, or by the number of cars in your driveway -- how's that working out for you? Success should be defined by the level in which the individual is capable of standing strong on principle in the face of massive attacks from evil forces. More to truth, success should be defined by how obedient an individual is to God, no matter how many satanic forces try to distract from that obedience. Standing up to the storm and refusing to cave to immoral, ungodly, untruthful wickedness: those who can do that, time and time again, years and years on end, are the ones who can be defined as truly successful. Kari Lake discusses her book, "Unafraid: Just Getting Started," based on her own fight for principles against massive leftist attacks.

Standing Up To the Storm

Are we marching toward end times in quick-time? Some say yes; some scoff the idea. But fact is, with the birth of Israel, the clock has been tick, tick, ticking away, and it's high time believers truly turned to the signs to take note of the checkmarks. Think artificial intelligence. Think technological advances. The Internet has allowed the spread of the Gospel in areas that were previously off-limits to teaching, and it won't be long before all of the world has heard the Bible -- another check mark of end times' promises coming true. Depravity, false worship, false gods, the hardening of human hearts, the LGBTQ lies; along with wars, threats of wars, weather disasters and threats of weather disasters, the growing acceptance of satanist clubs -- these are all hurtling humanity toward a total collapse. Biblically speaking: it's a time of warning, a time of choosing. Billy Hallowell, noted culture commentator and journalist, discusses.

Signs of the Second Coming of Christ

Bold and blunt: Washington Times online opinion editor Cheryl Chumley brings her no-holds-barred take on the big issues of the day.

There's a reason people had to go to court to fight for the release of Pfizer's data about the safety and efficacy of its Covid shots: because the Big Pharma company is covering up so many lies and health hazards that its running scared from accountability. So much of what doctors and researchers are finding now about these Pfizer shots show that what was called out as conspiracy theory is actually true. For instance, these shots truly mess with a woman's reproductive system -- to the point where they may not be able to have babies. Population control? You decide. The data is shocking and frightening. Naomi Wolf, noted journalist and author, discusses her findings.

Pfizer's Many, Many Covid Vaccine Lies

If Americans put their faith first and their politics second, and didn't worry so much about being called out for keeping their religious beliefs alive and well outside of Sunday church services, then America as a nation would never have a problem with Big Government. That's because -- as Founding Fathers said -- this republic would only remain limited in governance so long as the people were moral and virtuous -- and where is the source of morals and virtues but with God? America can no longer afford to listen as secularists and atheists try to move the nation's politics and culture to the far left by claiming religion has no place in public life. Quite the opposite. And Timothy Head, executive director of the Faith &amp; Freedom Coalition, weighs in with words of wisdom on just that topic.

Faith First, Politics Second, That's Key to Keeping Freedom

Christians in America have been too quiet, too complicit, too afraid of bucking the systems, too concerned with their own comfort levels -- and that has led the country, biblically speaking down this path of total peril. The culture has turned to the point where immorality is exalted and moral behaviors mocked and labeled intolerant, and that, predictably enough, has led the political system to bow to corruption. And now Christians want to cry about being persecuted? Thing is, most of the attacks on Christianity in this country are a) brought on by years and years of silence from the Christian community, which has emboldened the left to drive us in a direction of secularism and b) hardly at the level of persecution suffered by believers in other nations. Todd Nettleton discusses Christian persecution around the world, and weighs in on the state of Christianity in America.

Christians in America Are Their Own Worst Enemy

If you wonder why politicians on Capitol Hill don't seem to be doing anything about the $31.7 trillion national debt, or even seem that concerned about it at all, fact is: many actually love keeping Americans financially insecure. Debt is a device of Democrats -- to control. Debt is also a device of the devil -- to enslave. And let's not forget the globalists, who see rising U.S. debt as a surefire means of crippling the country and crumbling it from within -- a tool of takeover and the final realization of a long-held dream. If America stumbles and falls financially, then America the free will cease to exist. So follow the lines of logic and you can easily understand why debt is more a political weapon for the anti-American forces to wield, than it is a problem to solve. Dave Brat, a former member of Congress who beat out then-House Majority Leader Eric Cantor for his seat, speaks about the real state of America's finances. It's bleaker than imagined.

Democrats Are Driving Debt on Purpose

Most American adults say in recent surveys they're pessimistic about the fate of America, they're uncertain the future generation will have it better than they did and that the era of American Exceptionalism has come to an end. There's a reason for that and it can be summarized in just a few short words: America's losing God-given rights. From there, all ails in the political world follow -- and that leads to plenty of scandals, corruption, wickedness and outright evil that is being passed as the new normal. Judge Jeanine Pirro details in her new "Crimes Against America" some of the biggest problems Americans now face, and offers up some solutions to turn the tide of pessimism back to optimism.

America Is Pessimistic Because America's Losing God

The debt ceiling on Capitol Hill isn't just pitting Republicans versus Democrats. It's pitting the moral versus the immoral. Debt is a device of the devil because it enslaves those who suffer from its suffocating grasp and often leads to defaults that are akin to thefts. Is this the path America is treading right now? The debt ceiling is hitting an all-time high and honestly, there's no way our children are going to pay off all that money. The debt service alone is crippling. So what's going on here? One answer is that rising debt is a strategic design of the left -- of the globalists, actually, who want to tear down America's foundations, any which way they can. They're coming for the culture. They're coming for the education systems. They're coming for the political halls of power. And they're coming for the national economy. Cal Thomas, in his newest book, "A Watchman In the Night," describes some of the perils facing America -- and the bloated spending is just one of many, many problems.

Debt Enslaves, and other Watchman Wisdom

It's good to know traditional, sane Americans are still willing to fight for the nation, and if anything says "winning," it's the wins that Christian, conservative patriots have racked over Bud Light and Target in recent days. The LGBTQ agenda is being steadily pushed back into the dark corners where it belongs. Woke corporations are being reminded that they still have to worry about profits, and that the LGBTQ community only makes up a very small, very slim percentage of the nation. And simple truths, like male and female and that's all there is folks, just two sexes -- simple truths like these are being slowly restored to humanity. It's about time. It's past time, as a matter of fact. Kelley Yates, etiquette expert and author, tells why it's a good thing for society -- for polite society -- to reel in the LGBTQ madness and remind people that chaos is not kind.

Winning! Target Tumbles as Christians Fight LGBTQ

Klaus Schwab. Larry Fink. George Soros. The World Economic Forum. Climate change. These are all inextricably linked -- and their common denominator is this: Danger to America. If you're not in tune with what's taking place in politics on the global level, and how it all trickles into America's political system down to the individual citizen -- with the effect of stripping individual citizens of their individual rights -- then you're missing the big war for liberty. Make no mistake about it: fascism is coming on strong and it's a must for patriotic Americans to see both the forest and the trees in order to fight effectively. Steve King, former congressman of Iowa, has some shocking insights into the latest anti-American activities the leader of the World Economic Forum {Schwab} is doing with the leader of Blackrock Investments (Fink) as well as with the leader of global philanthropy-slash-government-takeover (Soros), and how these players are all hurtling America toward taxpayer funded enslavement to the left's climate gods. Former Iowa congressman, Steve King, has been digging in deep and investigating some recent climate change schemes that take private properties and use them for environmental causes that truly only enrich the pockets of a select few billionaire investors. And he warns: this agenda is poised to spread like wildfire across America -- around the world -- if patriots don't take notice and fight.

Beware! There's a New Climate Change Scheme Afoot

The federal government is supposed to work for the people. But those days are long gone, as the much-awaited Durham report shows. Not only did John Durham find in his special counsel look at Russia Collusion that the FBI far and away violated its core duties -- to be unbiased agents of law enforcement and law and order. But he also found -- without specifically using these words -- Donald Trump was right: The FBI served as a weaponized political tool of the Democrat Party. This isn't just a problem for Trump. This is a problem for the entire country. If America can't trust its federal authorities to serve the people and not the political ambitions of the select few, then America's republic is doomed to spiral into a tyrannical cesspool where individual liberties go to die. What's needed is accountability. What's needed is transparency. What's needed is a political will on Capitol Hill to hold liars' feet to the fire when they try, try, try again to push their lies onto the American people. Jonathan Emord, constitutional attorney-turned-Senate-candidate, discusses the need for principles in politics and warns: America's fading fast.

Durham Report Confirms: Feds Hate MAGAs

Modern America is far different from what it was a few decades ago -- from even a few years ago -- and that's not just speaking politically. Culturally, the country's grown coarser, uglier, more violent, less tolerant and yes, more evil. But it's the widespread acceptance of evil that's most dangerous. Countries typically go through cycles where one political time might show as more corrupt than another, but then the voting scales tip back toward moral righteousness and the public service officers chance their scandalous behaviors and justice is restored. What to do when there are no moral public service officers to take over the emptied seats, though? That's what happens when the culture turns rotten and the people become immune to the rot -- or outright accepting of the rot: there are no good men and women left to serve. This is where America is now walking, and it's due almost entirely to the evil that's infiltrated the Democrat Party and the culture of leftists. Radio host Ed Martin talks culture and evil and the cause of godlessness, and offers hope for better times.

Evil Is Definitely Growing in America
