When we look back at our country’s history even the pledge of Allegiance to our national flag which has been in existence in one form or another since 1892 has been attacked time and again in the courts. In 1942 President Roosevelt signed the “Flag Code” law which established rules for the display and care […]
We should all thank Audrey Dutton for her extensive reporting on the Idaho Health Data Exchange as it continues to prove to us the incompetency of Idaho’s Health and Welfare Department.

Truth or Consequences, created by Ralph Edwards in 1956 was a popular television game show in which contestants who failed to correctly answer trivia questions had to perform stunts.

As Manhattan AG Bragg continues with his witch hunt to indict President Trump his supporters continue to grow. If Bragg indicts Trump, it will be the first time this has ever happened to an American president. This frivolous lawsuit looks like a “Hail Mary” attempt to harm Trump’s run for a second term in 2024. […]
It is interesting that we are hearing more from Christians that the end of the world is near. Or they are saying we must be near the End of Days as described in Revelations. I don’t pretend to be a prophet but I personally, don’t believe that either is imminent. The problems we are dealing […]
May God Bless America Is it possible that America is seeing the rebirth of the silent majority?
