Y’all, the meat at grocery stores has been looking questionable over the past couple of months, especially chicken. It's like playing roulette.

The US govt is screaming—in words, actions, and now a strategic document—that America has switched sides in the world, preferring authoritarians and a transnational white nationalism over liberal democracy.

Like Russia, a US foreign policy goal is to undermine the EU.

I’ve been working against school vouchers for a decade. I’ve also been watching what has happened in other states.

Missouri is following the Arizona voucher plan.

Arizona blew a $1 billion hole in their state budget last year because tax money was diverted to private religious schools.

Congress must step up and hold Pete Hegseth accountable. The removal of the top Judge Advocate General officers from the Army, Navy, and Air Force in early 2025 made this outcome inevitable.

When Democrats regain power, CBP and ICE must be dismantled and rebuilt. Both organizations have been left unchecked for far too long.

This lax reporting from media outlets is a disservice to Americans. The military has a duty to reject unlawful orders, and if those in authority are violating the Constitution, those orders are unlawful regardless of whether they come from the President or anyone else.

Whether it’s Hendricks Motorsports or its parent company, Hendricks Motorsports Technical Solutions in Charlotte, it should be made clear that this organization has enabled harm to your city and across North Carolina.
