There…
Get used to grotesque works of “art” being injected into every public space. Last week, an 8-foot-tall, golden statue was unveiled atop a New York state courthouse in New York City.

While America tells young women they need to blend in with the secularized culture, reality TV star and author Sadie Robertson Huff teaches them how to remain tethered to their purpose and stay confident in their beliefs when the culture says otherwise.

School districts across the country have established diversity, equity, and inclusion, or DEI, offices to reduce discrimination, and the federal Department of Education regularly touts the value of DEI programs to quell bias.

You can learn a lot about a man by seeing how he spends his money. You can learn about a congressman by seeing how he spends everyone else’s money. Congress is—yet again—preparing to spend nearly $2 trillion of taxpayers’ dollars in a massive omnibus spending bill. Some in Congress are reluctant to keep overspending taxpayer…
Congressional leadership released a massive $1.85 trillion “omnibus” spending bill early Tuesday.

It is unprecedented for a lame-duck Congress to jam through an omnibus spending bill after the American people voted out the majority…

Woke attitudes are becoming pervasive among young people, even outside the United States. Recently released research by Eric Kaufmann, a professor of politics at the University of London, shows how concepts such as critical race theory and radical gender ideology have become common concepts taught in U.K. schools.

Wokeness isn’t welcome in Florida, and the Sunshine State is a place where it “goes to die,” Florida Gov.
