Charity is defined as an “act of loving all men as brothers because they are sons of God.” This is a purely personal matter; an act voluntarily performed by one person for another; an act of faith in God and His commandments for governing our relationships with our fellow men. When we keep this concept in mind, it becomes a simple matter to distinguish between true charity and the spurious schemes that now masquerade under its name. The original concept of charity as an expression of love, now appears to have been largely replaced by a concept of government-guaranteed security…. [But] how can charity — the love of a person for his fellow men — ever be connected ...

A newly-published study claiming the US Marine Corps would benefit from dropping gendered identifiers like “sir” and “ma’am” for drill instructors was not only “insane” but a waste of the $2 million the USMC paid for it, the ranking Republican on the House Armed Services Military Personnel Committee said in a statement on Wednesday. “I hope the Commandant not only rejects the recommendation but also asks for his money back,” wrote Congressman Mike Gallagher of Wisconsin wrote. He noted that the Marine Corps “may have problems, but the use of gendered terms at boot camp is not one of them.” Click for Full Text!

Stopping war is a tough enough challenge for individuals or disparate groups, so coalitions are absolutely necessary to confront this scourge. And Nick Brana of the People’s Party and Libertarian Angela McArdle are seeking to build just such a coalition to end the war in Ukraine, free Julian Assange, disband NATO and achieve any number of other laudable goals through a rally in Washington DC this coming February. Jimmy talks to Nick and Angela about building coalitions, making common cause and uniting for shared objectives across the political spectrum. Click for Full Text!

It’s generally accepted that early Christians adopted December 25th as the day of Christ’s birth to co-opt the pagan celebration of the winter solstice. Some believe this fact undermines Christianity. But according to Professor William Tighe, this “fact” may actually be a myth. Click for Full Text!

Schoolhouse Rots

In our local newspaper there has been extensive coverage of this year’s schoolboard elections and the numerous newcomers running on a platform of “reform.” What used to be a mundane aspect of local civic life has been charged with national political rhetoric and talking points, and schoolboards have become battlegrounds across the country. While it is good that interest and concern regarding education is increasing, calls for reform and policy change are unlikely to improve the status quo very much until the foundational assumptions built into the system are rooted out. The rot is deep. This isn’t the age of schoolhouse rocks, but schoolhouse rots. For thirteen years I ...

The massive $1.7 trillion omnibus bill that was made public by federal lawmakers Tuesday includes a $750,000 earmark for a Los Angeles-based transgender Latina group that wants to "dismantle" the U.S. criminal justice system and Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and inject "transgender history and discourse" into elementary schools, among other progressive initiatives.

A federal judge in Texas set aside a rule allowing teenagers to access birth control from providers participating in a federal family planning program without their parents’ permission. The ruling from U.S. District Judge Matthew Kacsmaryk on Tuesday likely means that teenagers who receive care through the Title X family planning program will no longer be allowed to do so confidentially.

Iran has been plagued by weeks of unrest after a 22-year-old Kurdish woman, Mahsa Amini, died in police custody after being arrested by the Iranian morality police. Recently, the beleaguered country saw its morality police force suspended, following the nationwide protests. Also, the regime conducted public executions of protestors in efforts to deter more people from participating in anti-government demonstrations. Officially termed the Guidance Patrol, the police unit has been present in major intersections and thoroughfares in Iranian cities for years, detaining those deemed in violation of the Islamic Republic’s stringent religious dress codes.

These essays quickly became the most widely-read documents on American liberty, and remained that way for years until the publication of Thomas Paine’s Common Sense in 1776. Click for Full Text!

Grover Cleveland Presented the Best Example of a True Liberal Populist

Six years after the election of Donald Trump, the Republican Party is still adrift. On the one hand, the GOP has embraced an antiestablishment and populist message. On the other hand, Republicans have not quite figured out how to balance populism with classically liberal values like constitutionalism and free markets. Indeed, populism and classical liberalism seem to be in direct conflict. Questions remain about how Republican populists will regulate (or not regulate) Big Tech, how they will protect blue-collar jobs without limiting economic freedom, and how they will push back against political elites without destroying vital institutions.

Columnist E.J. Dionne of The Washington Post may sometimes be infuriating, but he is never unintelligent. After graduating from Harvard, Dionne was named a Rhodes Scholar at Oxford where he earned a doctorate in sociology. He is always thoughtful, analytical, and polite. He is decidedly liberal when comes to both politics and theology, but he also seems to find conservatives to be interesting, if sometimes downright dangerous. Even more recently, he seems to find conservative Christians to be perplexing. In a column published Sunday, Dionne asks about our opposition to same-sex marriage: “Why draw the line here?” Click for Full Text!

Virginia Democrats are fighting to abolish single-sex bathrooms in public schools and keep parents in the dark when their children assume different genders at school. Democrats on the state legislature's rules commission in a 5-4 vote on Monday rejected Gov. Glenn Youngkin's (R.) plan to protect same-sex spaces and increase parents' role in education. If the plan is adopted, administrators and teachers would have to seek parents' consent before referring to children by different names or pronouns. The plan would also preserve sex-specific sports teams, locker rooms, and bathrooms. Click for Full Text!
