Bartlett High Under Fire Over Offensive 9/11 Post

Parents are raising questions after someone posted an offensive post about 9/11 on the Bartlett High School Facebook page. Instead of commemorating 9/11, the school announced they would be celebrating “Independence Recognition Day. As many critics pointed out, 9/11 is not about celebrating the Fourth of July. The post has since been removed.

Faith Over Fear: The Charlie Kirk Story

Thu, 10 Sep 2026 16:00:00 +0000

The special tells the story of how Charlie started Turning Point USA in his parents’ garage and built it into one of the largest youth organizations in the country, becoming the most consequential conservative voice of his generation.

Narrated by Mike Gallagher, Larry O’Connor, and Alex Marlow, with a special appearance by Larry Elder, the program will tell Charlie’s remarkable story largely through his own voice, including rare audio from his first interview with longtime host Dennis Prager when Charlie was just 22 years old.

The program draws from rare archival interviews and recordings, along with stories from those who knew Charlie throughout his rise from a young activist to a national conservative leader. More than anything, it will give you another chance to hear Charlie as you remember him: in his own voice.

Otis Sanford, a professor emeritus at the University of Memphis, condemned Sen. Marsha Blackburn, Rep. David Kustoff and State Sen. Brent Taylor on social media.

Sanford said that he could not in “good conscience” be silent.

This is the sort of propaganda he spewed in the classroom at the UofM – which is why so many UofM journalists are far-left propagandists.

Mississippi Mayor Snubs Dolly Parton, Refuses to Lower Flag

Mon, 31 Aug 2026 20:00:04 +0000

The mayor of Olive Branch, Mississippi is not a very big Dolly Parton fan. Mayor Ken Adams is making national headlines after he refused to lower the American flag to honor the Queen of Country Music.

Mayor Adams says that there’s no doubt Dolly brought joy to millions but he says to lower the red, white and blue would diminish the gesture’s significance. The mayor says the flag should only be lowered to honor military heroes, first responders and presidents.

The reaction has been somewhat insane. The New York Post picked up on the story – and thousands of people are commenting on social media. Most overwhelmingly object to the mayor’s decision.

President Trump and Mississippi Gov. Tate Reeves ordered that US and state flags be flown at half-staff for one week to honor Dolly. But under Home Rule, Mississippi allows cities the right to control their own internal affairs – which is why Mayor Adams thumbed his nose at President Trump and Gov. Reeves.

Perhaps the mayor could rethink his bone-headed decision – and perhaps lower Old Glory. You know – extend an olive branch.

Best Buy Refuses to Serve Customer Who Called Staffer “Sir”

Thu, 27 Aug 2026 19:28:19 +0000

A guy goes into a Best Buy the other day to purchase a laptop. He’s at the checkout asking for some help, which apparently he got. So, the man said to the clerk, “Thank you, sir.”

But it turns out the sir – identified as a ma’am. That’s right, folks. The Best Buy employee happened to be transgender.

The worker became enraged and defiantly told the customer that he would not sell him a laptop unless he called him “ma’am.”

The customer pulled out a cell phone and recorded what happened next.

Turns out the store manager agreed with the worker – telling the customer to buy the laptop someplace else.

Back in the day Best Buy was known as the home of the Geek Squad. But these days Best Buy is known as the home of the Freak Squad.

GOP Bracing For Midterm Disaster?

Tue, 25 Aug 2026 19:26:40 +0000

I’ve been traveling around the country promoting my new book, “The Golden Age: How Trump Saved America.”

And it’s true that the president stopped our country from being taken over by political Islam and the communists.

But right now the Administration is dealing with a communication problem – and it could threaten the midterm elections.

The American people are hurting financially – affordability is an issue impacting many families. And yet the administration seems to dismiss those concerns. We were told that it was basically our patriotic duty to pay higher gas prices.

Now comes word that the republican party’s midterm convention is in trouble. Turns out – it’s going to cost and arm and a leg to attend.

House Members are being told they must pay at least $25,000 to attend. And that’s the cheap rate. The highest tier is $100,000.

Some are calling it little more than a GOP fundraiser – as opposed to a pep rally for the midterms.

And the event scheduled just two days before the 25th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks. Optics are everything. And the Republicans have a big time optics problem.

Enes Kanter Ejected from WNBA Game

Mon, 24 Aug 2026 19:23:45 +0000

The WNBA continues to grapple over the meaning of the “W” in their name. The latest incident involving former NBA star Enes Kanter Freedom. Mr. Freedom ejected from Sunday’s game between the Indiana Fever and the Chicago Sky.

He was wearing a shirt that read, “Woman: noun. Adult human female.”

Clearly, Mr. Freedom was trying to help the WNBA understand the definition of the WNBA.

He made headlines with his recent decision to declare for the 2027 WNBA draft. Several other male players have also declared – by simply announcing they all identify as women.

The WNBA says only women are eligible to play. However, they cannot define what a woman is – so Mr. Freedom decided to call their bluff.

Proving the best way to address the absurdity of the sex and gender radicals is to completely embrace their absurdity.

Enes is the bravest woman I know!

Monster Mom Kills Her 3 Children

Thu, 20 Aug 2026 19:23:53 +0000

Lindsay Clancy is charged with three counts of first degree murder. She accused of killing her own children – five-year-old Cora, three-year-old Dawson and eight-month-old Callan.

The Massachusetts nurse sent her husband out of the house to run errands while she strangled the children with exercise bands.

Her attorneys claim she was suffering from bipolar disorder and postpartum psychosis. They say she should not be held criminally responsible for killing her kids.

Some 200 woke white women agree and they’ve been protesting outside the courthouse in Plymouth. They believe that Mrs. Clancy is the victim, not her three dead children.

Hundreds of women wearing pink shirts – defending a maternal monster.

What a strange period of time in American history where cold-blooded killers like Carmello Anthony and Luigi Mangione and Dzhokhar Tsarnaef are celebrated as heroes and worshipped as celebrities.

If nothing else it shows that many people in our nation are deceived by the great evil that has enveloped our nation. A disturbing evil.

School Yearbook Celebrates Drag Queens, Attacks Charlie Kirk

Thu, 06 Aug 2026 19:22:50 +0000

Big trouble at Derby High School in Kansas.

The school yearbook just came out and it’s filled with all sorts of inappropriate material. One student is depicted as a drag queen – a teenage boy wearing a leopard print top and black fishnet stockings. There are also articles attacking Charlie Kirk supporters – along with quotes mocking people who love Jesus. And there was a full page attacking ICE agents for deporting the illegal alien invaders. The Derby High School yearbook also included a message that President Trump is the worst president in American history.

Back when we were in school – the yearbook celebrated the best dressed and most likely to succeed. At Derby High School – they are celebrating the most likely to become a domestic terrorist. Sounds like the Derby school yearbook is being edited by former employees of The New York Times and Washington Post.

If we are really going to save our Republic, we must take back control of our public schools. I explain how to do that in my new book, “The Golden Age: How Trump Saved America.” You can get a copy on Amazon or your favorite bookstore.

Anyone Else Frustrated With the On-Again, Off-Again Iran War?

Mon, 03 Aug 2026 19:35:57 +0000

There is growing frustration at how President Trump is handling the war in Iran. Over the weekend, the president announced that he was holding off on what would have been a massive military bombardment. The president said he pulled back at the request of the Iranians.

Meanwhile – Iran says there are no deals in place and they have not held any direct talks with the administration. The on again, off again war is off again.

Reaction has been swift – and not good for Team Trump.

Nearly a thousand people weighed in on my Facebook page – 99 percent of those who commented were frustrated over the president’s handling of the war.

Meanwhile, the Pentagon sent an email to military personnel inviting them to submit creative and unconventional ideas to punish Iran.

Unconventional Ideas? How about bombing them back to the stone age? What in the world is going on?

The American people were very clear – no more forever wars. And what was supposed to be a six-week war has turned into a six month war – and counting.

We’ve been told dozens of times that deals were in place only to watch the Iranians break the deal. It’s time to either fish or cut bait.

Crazed Liberal Loon Explodes Over Bible in Dentist Office

Thu, 30 Jul 2026 19:19:40 +0000

A liberal woman took her kids to the dentist the other day. The dentist is a Christian and he had placed Bibles in the waiting room.

That apparently set off this lady who fired off an angry rant on social media.

She was so triggered by the presence of God’s Word that she canceled the appointment.

The woman defended her rant by saying that America is not a Christian nation and she did not appreciate a private business putting Bibles in the waiting room.

Well, I hate to break it to this lady – but America is a country where we embrace religious liberty. And a private business owner can put whatever he wants in the lobby of his lobby.

Honest to goodness – the intolerance of these liberals is something to behold.

Not sure what’s worse – getting a root canal or being forced to listen to an unhinged, far-left loon. At least you get drugs with the root canal.

Fauci Obsessed Over Media Coverage, Claimed to Be Bigger Star Than Trump.

Mon, 27 Jul 2026 19:41:09 +0000

Dr. Anthony Fauci is now being called the Dr. Frankenstein of the modern era. Trump senior adviser Peter Navarro told Fox News that Fauci has the blood of millions of people on his hands. Fauci is testifying on Capitol Hill this week about the role he played in the deaths of nearly 98,000 Americans who died from the China Virus.

Senator Rand Paul, the Republican from Kentucky, just released more than a thousand pages of diary entries from Fauci – showing that the doctor was fixated on press coverage he received during the pandemic. He was also obsessed with his celebrity status – boasting about how the media was quote “hot and heavy” about the doctor.

One journal entry noted that Fauci said his star outshone even President Trump. Of particular note – Fauci emphatically said he had nothing to do with the closing of schools across America. However, in Fauci’s own journal he took personal credit for telling the mayor of New York City and the governor of California to shut down public schools – as well as restaurants and bars. Senator Paul says Fauci will answer to the American people. What say you, America?

Smithsonian: Mickey Mouse is Racist and So Is Being Polite

Wed, 22 Jul 2026 21:28:46 +0000

You might be surprised to learn that Mickey Mouse is not held in high esteem by The Smithsonian. There’s one museum exhibit that describes Steamboat Willie as a vestige of long-standing traditions of a blackface minstrel show.

That revelation came during a congressional hearing with Anthea Hartig, the director of the Smithsonian’s National Museum of American History.

Mickey Mouse is racist? Now, that’s just goofy.

Turns out the Smithsonian has all sorts of woke exhibits and ideology. Did you know that being polite is a form of white supremacy? Or that you can purchase a children’s story book that includes pictures of two boys lusting after each other?

They also share Latino Power merchandise. To illustrate the absurdity – imagine the outrage if they sold White Power merch.

What’s puzzling is why you can purchase gay-themed books at the Smithsonian gift shop – but you can’t purchase a copy of the two books that most influenced the Founding Fathers – the Holy Bible and Thomas Paine’s Common Sense.

How ironic that you can’t find common sense in The Smithsonian museums.

Dems: Don’t Let Republicans Eat At Your Diners

A culinary controversy in Georgia.

Rick Jackson – the Republican nominee for governor – stopped by a black-owned restaurant. And now the owner of Toast on Lenox is facing a boycott.

Tamara Young is the owner of Toast on Lenox. She has since deleted a photo she posted when Jackson dropped by for a visit.

Former Atlanta Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms poured gasoline on the fire by saying anyone who welcomes her opponent has made a calculated decision and should understand the risks.

Bottoms is the Democrat nominee for governor.

During the China Virus Pandemic – the policies enacted by Mayor Bottoms led to the closing of more than 100 small businesses. And now she wants to shut down any business that serves a Republican.

Mr. Jackson issued a statement saying he’s going to fight for all Georgians – no matter their zip code or party affiliation.

Why Aren’t Mass Arrests Happening Across the Deep State?

Fri, 17 Jul 2026 19:43:34 +0000

FBI agent Nikki Floris wrote in a text chat that "I'm basically running a shadow government across the FBI at this point."

That was one of the more shocking revelations discovered by President Trump. He delivered a speech to the nation announcing that evidence had been uncovered that China had been meddling in our federal elections.

And there were also elements within our own government that had been working during his first term in office to undermine and sabotage the president and his agenda.

Remember what disgraced FBI agent Peter Strozk said to a colleague in 2016 – about needing an insurance policy should Trump be elected. Strozk also told a colleague that the FBI would stop Trump from being elected.

The "shadow government" also kept important documents away from President Trump during his first term in office.

This is sedition - conduct intended to overthrow an established and duly elected government. The maximum penalty is 20 years in prison.

My only question: Has Ms. Floris been taken into federal custody yet?

Leftists Celebrate Death of Sen. Lindsey Graham

Mon, 13 Jul 2026 19:48:43 +0000

Social media is filled with memorial and tributes just about every time a lawmaker dies. And more often than not – the pundit crowd begins their posts with a caveat: “I did not agree with Senator so and so, but…” or “We disagreed on everything and he was a sorry so-and-so, but...” If you have to qualify your tribute or memorial – it is not a tribute. It's an example of bad upbringing. Senator Lindsey Graham died suddenly over the weekend. And I noticed that a good many folks on both sides of the aisle were offering backhanded condolences. Senator Graham was a good and decent man. He took care of his family. He fought for the unborn. He stood up for religious liberty. He was a friend to our president. And he will be missed. And as Grandma Starnes used to say – if you can’t say something nice – it’s just best to hush up.

Activists Want Preschoolers to Learn "Black English"

Thu, 09 Jul 2026 14:44:56 +0000

A group of prominent black activists are calling on California to teach preschoolers how to speak "Black English." The activists say they don't want their children talking like white people. They say cultural linguistics make it appropriate for black children to "axe" questions and to use words like "finna do something" or "how you be?" Sounds like they want to create a modern-day Tower of Babel. Be sure to click here to get a copy of my new book, "The Golden Age: How Trump Saved America."

Obama Death Star Opens for Business

Thu, 18 Jun 2026 19:18:07 +0000

The Barack Hussein Obama Presidential Library is now open to the public and it’s already being called the most hideous presidential edifice in American history.

Some have likened the drab, gray, dystopian obelisk to a guard tower at a North Korean prison camp. Others have said ti bears a striking resemblance to a Death Star.

It is also the most expensive presidential library in history. The original budget was $330 million but costs exploded to more than $850 million. And Fox News reports the final price tag could exceed $1 billion.

But not everyone is all hope and change and yes we can.

It turns out that a number of black contractors have not been paid. One plumbing company says they are owed nearly $4 million.

The African American Contractors Association says they have never seen anything like this happen in the history of their organization.

Are we really that surprised that Obama is not paying his bills? He stiffed black Americans during his 8 years in the White House – and he’s stiffing in them in the private sector too.

By the way, if you plan on visiting Chicago, bring a valid form of identification. You’ll need that not to vote, but to gain access to the library.

California has been allowing people to register to vote using gym membership cards. That’s just one of the explosive findings in a report issued by the Justice Department.

And with every passing day – the late vote tallies always benefit the Democrats. Most recently evidence was discovered that a 125-year-old woman voted.

MS NOW anchor Ali Velshi says he’s conflicted about celebrating the 250th birthday of America – announcing on cable television that he feels a deep unease about celebrating the land of the free and the home of the brave. Here’s what you may not know about Mr. Velshi. He was born in Kenya and raised in Canada. In 2015 he swore an oath to become a naturalized citizen of the United States. We welcomed Mr. Velshi into our nation and by all measures he is living the American dream. There are reports that he could be worth quite a bit of money. You really think that would’ve happened if Mr. Velshi had remained in Kenya or even in Canada? Highly unlikely. And that’s why – as much as Ali Velshi hates our nation – he will never leave. He’s living the good life.So while Americans toast our Founding Fathers and enjoy burgers and fireworks on this Fourth of July, might I recommend that aggrieved immigrants like Ali Velshi just shut up and show a little gratitude or better yet - book a one-way ticket back to Kenya.
