March 25, 2008 ~ A recent article appeared in the Sierra Vista Herald newspaper of Sierra Vista, Arizona in which Glenn Spencer of American Border Patrol became the target of the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC). According to the SPLC, the American Border Patrol is a “hate group.”

Going on the SPLC website, clicking on “hate map” and clicking on Arizona, one discovers that, sure enough, there is American Border Patrol listed as “anti-immigrant.” Continue reading

DeWeese: It’s Time to Bring the Southern Poverty Law Center to Justice!


~ Forward ~
I wrote the following article in January 2018, after the Souhtern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) had written four separate reports on me, listing me and the American Policy Center on their hate list and calling me a liar for exposing Agenda 21 as a global agenda for the “reorganization of Human society,” Finally the SPLC is under federal investigation for their lies and crimes. This article reveals that their tactics and influences go much further than just paying the KKK to promote false right-winged hate speech. For years the SPLC has been used by the federal government as a legitimate resource, resulting in creating federal policy against those who have actively stood for Constitutional law. Read my original article and understand the full threat of the SPLC. Here it is:

There are many powerful forces operating today across the nation to divide the American people and silence opposing views. One of the most active of these efforts is the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC).

There are two very serious reasons why the SPLC is in many ways more dangerous than other organizations that are fueling the flames of the far-left radicals who use violence and lies to stop honest political debate. Continue reading

Smith: Liberty, Duty, and America’s Future ~ To Remain Free in America

A Rare Anti-Federalist Newspaper from December 1787, Signed in Type “Brutus”, Which Sought to Counter the Federalist Papers and Alexander Hamilton

Much of this is pretty simple for anyone who ever really studied American history and the Federalist and Anti-Federalist Papers. I had the basics of it down between my sophomore year in high school and my sophomore college year.

The problem remains that many Americans do know these truths, and yet they still choose to ignore and work against them in favor of an agenda that kills freedom and liberty for all, for their own benefit and gain and power.

The useful idiots have done the damage over the past 100 years, and now good, patriotic Americans are left to play hell in order to restore the nation under its founding principles.

There are moments in the life of a nation when the people must decide whether they will remain free men and women, or drift slowly, almost sleepwalking, into a condition of managed dependence. Such moments do not always arrive with cannon fire, smoke, and the open conquest of a visible enemy. More often they come wrapped in administrative language, softened by assurances, and sold as efficiency, compassion, progress, or safety. Yet the danger is no less real because it wears a polite face. A republic may lose its freedom the way a great house is consumed by termites: one hidden bite at a time, until the whole structure suddenly yields under its own weight. Continue reading

Holmquist: It’s Time to Go on the Offensive With Public School Reading Lists

Reading classic books

It’s often said that an individual will be same person five years down the road except for the books he reads and the people he meets. That’s likely the reason book battles in public schools and libraries have become so intense in recent years – fill a child’s mind with salacious and subversive ideas, and the chance of him falling in line with those ideologies grows infinitely greater.

But the tide may be turning… Continue reading

We Will Rebuild – Defiant Protest Song of Hope, Democracy, and Resistance

If you are offended by this post – then it is past time for you to WTF up! ~ Editor

We Will Rebuild” is a powerful modern protest song of determination and hope, written for those who refuse to accept authoritarianism, political violence, and the erosion of democracy under Donald Trump, MAGA extremism, and complicit Republicans in Congress. Blending folk-rock urgency with an anthemic, sing-along chorus, the song confronts the collapse of accountability – from courts and Congress to international norms – while insisting that resistance rooted in ballots, voices, and collective courage will prevail. With lyrics that reject fear, strongman politics, and billionaire worship, “We Will Rebuild” channels peaceful protest, global solidarity, and moral resolve, declaring that defeating Trumpism is only the beginning – and that rebuilding a just America grounded in the rule of law, democratic values, and social justice is both possible and necessary.

Ellis: America Reads the Bible — but Will We Live It?

The real question facing America is not whether we can quote scripture, but whether we know it, understand it, and live it.

As Americans look ahead to the 250th anniversary of our founding, there is a renewed emphasis on returning to the principles that shaped this nation. One encouraging sign is the growing participation in efforts like this week’s “America Reads the Bible” — a public acknowledgment that Scripture has been, and must remain, foundational to our national identity.

I had the privilege of participating, alongside several others from the American Family Association and American Family Radio, joining voices across the country to read the Word of God aloud. It was a meaningful reminder of something our culture too often forgets: Scripture is not merely a historical artifact. It is living truth. Continue reading

Finney: The SPLC Faces Accountability for Years of Manufacturing Hate

~ Dedication ~

This article is dedicated to two people, unjustly targeted by the SPLC. Jackie Juntti (Grassroots Granny) was targeted by the SPLC because of her defense of Glenn Spencer, of the American Border Patrol.

Jackie was portrayed, by the hate-mongering SPLC, to be a “hard-core nativist” while Glen Spencer was portrayed as a “vitriolic Mexican-basher”; both because they stood against the illegal alien invasion of the United States.

Both Jackie and Glenn are no longer with us; but may they see the justice against the SPLC they never got to see while among us.

DeBlasi: What Made Us American Before The Country Turned Left

Those who minimize or dismiss the adverse side effects of America’s “transformation” reveal a failure to regard social and political progress with the seriousness it demands.

My father worked on the docks of New York City when America’s economy was booming before 1929. As with many Europeans of economically depressed countries at the end of World War I, he left his native country to seek a new life in America, which was calling for the extra muscle needed to build a brand new, modern infrastructure . . . from subways and skyscrapers in New York to infinitely more from coast to coast.

Then came the Great Crash of ’29, stopping the great momentum, dramatically illustrated in 1931 when New York’s fantastic new Empire State Building opened its doors in the middle of the Great Depression. Continue reading

Adams: The American Empire Will End in Poverty and Despair

Introduction: The Fraying Fabric of an Empire

I look at the world in 2026, and I no longer see a beacon of liberty, but a dying empire stumbling toward its own ruin. This is not a sentiment born of pessimism, but of cold observation. The American project, hijacked by a nexus of central banking, perpetual war, and crony capitalism, has embarked on a suicide mission.

The endpoint, I am convinced, will not be a soft landing into mediocrity. It will be a violent descent into widespread poverty, social chaos, and despair. The evidence is no longer in the periphery; it is the central plot of our national story. Every policy, from the funding of foreign wars to the relentless debasement of our currency, is systematically stripping the American people of their wealth, their autonomy, and their future.

The Times, They are a Changin’ … and Changin’ and Changin’…

In fact, it seems Trump’s deadlines NEVER stop changing.

President Trump redefined his indefinite ceasefire today to a definite 3-5-day ceasefire, if 3-5 days can be called definite. Yesterday the schedule was “until such time as their leaders and representatives can come up with a unified proposal.” Now it’s 3-5 days.

It happens that 3-5 days is also just the right timeframe for the arrival of the third US aircraft carrier to the gulf region. The USS George HW Bush will be back on the prowl within hunting distance of Iran’s shores by this weekend. Continue reading

Hundreds of Parents Seek to BAN Elementary School From Sending Children Home With Chromebooks as They Demand a Return to Pencil and Paper Learning

Parents of a Philadelphia school district have rallied together to get pencils back in their children’s hands and writing on paper again after seeing the damage of learning on Chromebooks.

At least 200 parents of the Lower Merion School District (LMSD) have signed an ongoing petition to opt their children out of a one-to-one electronic device program. However, administrators claim that opting their children out of the program is impossible (Penn Wynne Elementary School in LMSD pictured)

The petition claimed several teachers at LMSD support the refusal of technology-based learning after seeing the harms of devices such as Chromebooks, iPads, and MacBooks cause in real time.

Technology can harm students by distracting them, exposing them to cyberbullying and inappropriate online content and weakening their socialization skills, the complaint noted.

The petition added that devices can lead to teacher burnout, excessive screen time, privacy concerns, poor behavior in class, and concerns about the role of AI in children’s academic lives, among other issues. Continue reading

Scientists Baffled by Mysterious 1,200-Year-Old Coin Linking Vikings to Jesus

A goin coin from the ninth century (Pictured) containing the image of John the Baptist may rewrite the history of Vikings in England

A shocking discovery has unearthed an apparent link between Vikings and the teachings of Jesus, rewriting what historians assumed about the spread of Christianity 1,200 years ago.

A person searching for possible treasure with a metal detector in the UK’s county of Norfolk recently found a small, incomplete gold coin which had been turned into a pendant. Continue reading

The Salty Citizen: Cease Fires and Shots Fired… Another Day in DC

Could there be one more thing on fire at home and abroad? If it’s not enemies ceasing to fire, it’s friendly fire from within.

As of April 2026, the United States feels like it’s juggling a few too many flaming swords—some overseas, some right here at home.

A fragile (and slightly confusing) ceasefire situation with Iran is hovering over the Strait of Hormuz, one of the most important oil chokepoints in the world. Meanwhile, political drama stateside is doing its best to keep up.

Let’s start offshore. Continue reading

Garrison: “Virginia Is for… Backstabbers”

Virginia is for Lovers” — that was the old slogan.

Now, thanks to Governor Abigail Spanberger and her Democrat crew, it’s looking a lot more like “Virginia is for Backstabbers“.

Today, April 21st, Virginians head to the polls for a special redistricting referendum. Many Republican voters who helped put Spanberger in office as a supposed “moderate” are waking up with a knife in their backs. She campaigned as a reasonable Democrat focused on kitchen-table issues.

We Should Not Fear The Tyrants; The Tyrants Should Fear Us!

In our society, we do not push psychopaths off the ice when nobody is looking. In our society, we let them rule the world.

If there were a thousand people living on an island, and one of them began making life miserable for everyone else, there would soon be 999 people living on the island.

How strange, then, that a few oligarchs and empire managers get to push around an entire planet full of humans. Continue reading

Holmquist: Why Reinstating Cursive Is a Profoundly Progressive Idea

Perhaps it seems counterintuitive at first, but it may be just what today’s children need in an increasingly high-tech, AI world.

I’ve spent many happy hours volunteering in a program for inner-city children in Minneapolis since I was a teen. One of my tasks over the years has been helping these children with writing.

There we sit, side by side, with me writing outlines and sentences, while they earnestly race to copy my example. Some get frustrated by their slow pace, while others write with a speed that nearly gives me hand cramps in trying to stay a step ahead.

Occasionally, I’ve slipped into using cursive. This fascinates the kids, and they often try copying it or comment on how they wish they could write like that. They sense that cursive is something special — a secret code into which they would like to gain insight, but sadly aren’t currently learning. Continue reading
