When tragedy strikes, the media loves to shape the story in a way that supports their own political goals. In the case of Charlie Kirk’s murderer, Tyler Robinson, we are watching this play out in real time. Headlines all across the internet frame him as “raised Mormon” or “a former member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.” …

The murder of Charlie Kirk has ripped open the thin veil of civility that still covered America’s cultural war. For days, we have witnessed two Americas. One mourns with dignity, offering prayers and grief for a man whose only weapon was his voice. The other America laughs, mocks, and celebrates in the digital gutters of social media, treating the violent …

The Scale of the Betrayal There are scandals in history that eventually fade from memory. Then there are scandals so vast, so gut wrenching, and so morally corrosive that they remain etched into the conscience of every community they touched.

When the Watchman Sleeps In 1950, while American families were busy with the postwar boom, raising children, and building lives, the U.S. Navy made a choice that should still make every God-fearing citizen’s stomach turn. In what they called Operation Sea Spray, military vessels anchored in the San Francisco Bay released a bacterial mist into the air over a living, …

Bill Gates Is Back At It Again Here we go again. Bill Gates just cannot stop messing with our food. Now a company he is backing called Savor is making “butter” from thin air. Literally.

Rite Aid’s Collapse and the Cost to American Families When I walked past my neighborhood Rite Aid for the last time, I saw more than a closing store. I saw the end of an era—a community institution gutted by lawsuits, scapegoating, and government failure. The longtime manager looked devastated, knowing that his decades of service were being erased overnight. Rite …

Big Pharma’s Golden Shield: Protected from Justice, Insulated from Consequences For generations, American families have trusted their government to protect them. We believed that if something went wrong, if someone was harmed, there would be justice and accountability. But the reality is far more sinister. In the case of vaccine injuries, Big Pharma is completely protected by the federal government. …

America is in desperate need of moral clarity and strong, principled leadership. This need was on full display in Cincinnati, where a city council member recently shocked the nation by celebrating a brutal assault, declaring on social media that the victims “begged for that beatdown.” At a time when our communities are already plagued by rising violence and deepening division, …

Story That Demands Our Attention America is again confronted with the consequences of failed leadership and the loss of foundational values. This time, the tragedy took place in the peaceful suburbs of Waukegan, Illinois, where police discovered the body of Megan Bos stored in a bleach-filled container in the backyard of an illegal immigrant. The crime, disturbing as it is, …

We Didn’t Raise Killers. We Engineered Them. There was a time in America—not long ago—when a student could park his pickup truck outside a public school with a loaded shotgun resting in a rear window rack, and not a single person batted an eye. In towns across upstate New York and the heartland, high schools proudly hosted gun clubs, and …
