The progressives’ end game is to remake America and they will not tolerate losing the Presidency in November. Win or lose, a civil war of sorts is in the offing. The only question is when? There are two Americas today, and the divide is demonstrated perfectly in this short video:

Conservatives are right to take the coming election seriously, for a Biden victory could be a true “extinction event,” rather than the usual shift leftward. A friend recommended that I watch the last few minutes of Scott Adams’ July 13 show. Her recommendation was illuminating, for Adams had a very

There’s a scary paganism to the unbridled blood lust that appears wherever Judeo-Christian ethical monotheism is in retreat. Ethical monotheism underpins Western civilization. It’s a gift from the Jews, transmitted to large parts of the world through Christians. It is the idea that there is a single God. Unlike pagan
