Great news for we the people.  Court strikes down executive federal overreach.  Way over due decision.  

SCOTUS swats away SALT cap challenge that limits tax deductions in New York, Maryland

Via: XXJefferson51  •  News & Politics  •  8 Comments  •  2 years ago

“The Supreme Court Monday rejected an appeal from several states challenging Congress's cap on state and local taxes that can be deducted from...”

This is great news!  Now states citizens with lower tax rates and possibly fewer services don’t have to subsidize the tax payers of high tax states and the “benefits” they get from them. The cap is fair because the caps for state and local taxes and for mortgage deduction are the same for all...

Free Speech Is A Threat To Democrats

“Democrats can’t have this and other truths spread freely, they can’t have jokes told that belittle sacred cows on the left, they can’t be seen as...”

Derek is exactly right.  He makes his points clear and precise and calls out democrats and the secular progressive elite establishment for exactly who and what they are.  He shows how free speech is anathema to them.  He shows that their diversity mantra does not include different beliefs and...

Twitter faces the ‘nightmare’ of being forced into free speech

Via: XXJefferson51  •  News & Politics  •  33 Comments  •  2 Likes  •  2 years ago

“Thus, an outbreak of free speech could have dire consequences for many in the political-corporate-media triumvirate. For them, the greatest danger...”

Free speech is anathema and public enemy #1 to the bi coastal secular progressive urban elites.  They love using gatekeepers so that media, traditional and social can silence the middle and working class rubes from flyover heartland America from freely expressing their religious and political...

Disney Isn’t Trying To Diddle Your Kids, But Their Real Goal Is Just As Insidious

Via: XXJefferson51  •  Americana  •  3 Comments  •  1 Like  •  2 years ago

“Disney pushes this stuff on children not to catapult them into a perverse early adulthood but rather to emotionally stunt them and keep them in a...”

The author makes an important point.  The actions of Disney are indeed insidious and malevolent.  They are advocating a dangerous ideology.  One that alienates and divides us from each other.  We must rescue our children before they ruin them.  

Franklin Graham on Easter this year: 'Our only hope is God'

“I just admire the [Ukrainian] people for the stand that they're taking," he added. "And their faith in God. It's obvious that these people have a...”

The Ukrainian people are amazing in the resolve they are showing.  The trials they face are severe.  Their faith in God is what is sustaining them. The mission of western Churches to provide food, other aid, supplies, and medical support is important.  

Is Easter a Pagan Holiday?

“During the Holy Week fast preceding Easter, Christians were prohibited from eating eggs. The chickens kept laying, however. Eggs laid during Holy...”

The pagans and today’s secularists who use them to argue against one form of theism got it exactly backwards.  On virtually every issue.  Particularly so with Easter.  The answer to the question in the headline is a clear and resounding no.  

Flying the flag of our faith

“Many parents have recently been awakened to some of the concepts their children are being taught in public schools — that you can choose your...”

The culture wars have been waged by the secular progressive left for decades. The ill effects upon our society at large have been taking hold.  Only lately have parents been exposed to and repulsed by the content of what is being crammed down our children’s throats.  It’s great to see religious...

Liberals Decry Free Speech As A Threat To Democracy As Musk Offers To Buy Twitter

Via: XXJefferson51  •  News & Politics  •  19 Comments  •  2 Likes  •  2 years ago

“70.4% of respondents agreed Twitter does not adhere to free speech principles. “Given that Twitter serves as the de facto public town square,...”

Liberals are the real threat to democracy.  Anyone who would engage in content control and limit free speech as defined in the first amendment is an open and deliberate enemy of freedom and democracy.  And they have the nerve to call freedom a threat to democracy! 

Despite What You’ve Heard, Red States Handled COVID Much, Much Better Than Blue States

“One of the genius elements of the U.S. Constitution was its allowance for competing models of success and failure. It did so by giving states great...”

This is no surprise to me.  The debates since initial reopening began in May 2020 have raged but not its a settled issue.  Red States did better.  Lots better.  There was no greater mistake made in response to the China virus than the lockdowns.
