The vaccine mandate reminds me of the story about an old farmer who had to leave for a couple of days and hired a young fella to look after the stock. After giving a lengthy list of “dos,” he said, “Whatever you do, don’t put beans in the donkey’s ears.” Well, I bet you can…

In these difficult economic times, as a result of COVID-19, it is especially important to patronize your neighborhood businesses. Do it not only on annual Small Business Saturday, November 26, but every day of the year. Small independent businesses are at the mercy of suppliers, especially third-party brokers, who control the price they have to…

Many in the liberal press feel that Kyle Rittenhouse was morally culpable for violence as he should have known better than to enter a volatile and dangerous setting with an armed AR-15. What was he thinking? What was his motivation for being in Kenosha in the first place? Brushed over was the fact that his…

I was deep in prayer. During a lull in the service, my friend and I discussed all the terrorist attacks in our churches and synagogues. “Oh, don’t worry,” he said. “If anything happens here, I’m ready.” He opened his jacket revealing a pistol in his waistband holster. There is no such thing as coincidences. I…

So we have this virus. It has gripped much of the world. It has killed countless people of all ages. It has destroyed economies, businesses, people’s self-esteem, and pride. It has restricted the movement and freedom of countless people. It has resulted in ridiculous inconsistent mandates and rules of restriction. It has forced many people…

There is a lot of ignorance masquerading as truth today. Here are the lies: Humanity is progressing and God is irrelevant. Moral truth is subjective to whatever I say it is. Crime and poverty are due to white male capitalist Christianity. America’s founding was based on oppression and corruption. Government must take precedence over parenting….

At one time in our history, activism was defined as vigorous acts taken in support of a cause through peaceful and legal means. Today, by most counts, activism has been reduced to a rite of passage for criminals to undertake acts of looting, attacks on law enforcement, and the destruction of property. Activism guided by…

The impact of the Rittenhouse issue is not the young man, the criminals he shot (killed), the riot itself, the lack of law enforcement, or any petty charge surmounted by the prosecution. It is the fact a gun was used to protect a law-abiding citizen in the exact manner for which that weapon was designed….

Thank you, “Mom” Chen, for another well-assembled, truth-soaked article about the transgender craze that’s threatening us and our kids [“A Mom’s Research: Staying Steady in the Swirl of Transgenderism” by Jean Chen, published in the Nov. 10–Nov. 16 edition]. “Mom” sparked a few further thoughts to consider as we hunt for answers to combat the…

My worry and concerns are for OUR country. Never in my 60-plus years have I ever seen us so divided, and the primary cause for that is the media. There are no “NEWS” broadcasts any longer, but rather cheerleaders from both sides, and then on Sunday, Nov. 17, I read a teacher was quitting because…
