Today, I am reprinting a letter I received from Andrew Gutman, a New York City parent who, in 2021, pulled his daughter out of the Brearley School, an all-girls private school in the Upper East Side neighborhood of Manhattan, to protest the school’s woke policies regarding race and gender. Gutman …
(Because this is “Banned Books Week,” I thought I might re-post a commentary I did a while back about how many American schools have decided to ban Harper Lee’s prize-winning book, “To Kill a Mockingbird.” It is not only a wrong-headed policy; it is a dangerous act of censorship that …
I recently received this insightful little story via email, and it made so much sense that I decided to share it with my followers and readers. It’s a great example of how big government works—or doesn’t, depending on your perspective. Take a look. You won’t be sorry—or perhaps you will, …
I posted earlier this week about Joe Biden’s hateful and divisive attack on the 75 million Americans who voted for Donald Trump in the 2020 Presidential election. Today I read the commentary below by former Chicago Tribune colleague and columnist John Kass. John left the Tribune in 2021, the victim …
I often repost commentaries from Victor Davis Hanson on my blog. Here is another recent one that examines how easy it is for us to lose our republic and how we are on the road to doing just that. Take a look. How Democracy Dies in Darkness: Five Easy Steps …

As someone who spent four years on active duty with the U.S. Army Security Agency, I have been appalled at what is happening to America’s military. Not only are physical and mental requirements being “dumbed down” to accommodate recruits who would otherwise be rejected or discharged from service, but the …
Today I am posting a commentary from political writer Gary Reece. His predictions are disquieting, but I fear he may be on target with them-especially because stumbling, bumbling, mumbling Joe Biden continues to attack and label some 75 million American voters—half of the nation’s electorate—”fascists” and domestic terrorists. An alarming …
It’s tough enough to go into battle with a weapon. Imagine doing so without one! But that’s what Desmond Doss did during WW II. He was a conscientious objector and served as a medic during the Battle of Okinawa. His actions one day saved the lives of 75 of his …
Today I am turning my blog over to Elizabeth Vaughn, a fellow contributor to the American Free News Network. She has penned an excellent piece that focuses on the corruption of the American government–specifically the Department of Justice, the FBI, the CIA, the IRS, and the State Department, all of …
