  • Lauren Mascitti

    Lura Pitman|Jun 23, 2021

    At the beginning of the shut downs in 2020, I mentioned to my brother that it is unconstitutional to shut down churches. He is a professor at a University and has taught there for many years. His response was: “It is not unconstitutional.” Me: “It most definitely is.” He: “Show me where it says it in the Constitution.” Me; “ First Amendment and I would say 14th Amendment section 1. I wonder, have you even read the Constitution?” No response to my question to this day. You see I moved here from another country as did he. I fell in love with Am...

    Well, the village idiot, Joe Biden is keeping his campaign promises. So far, he has destroyed the engine of the United States, by stopping our oil pipelines and fracking. Fossil fuels have ALWAYS been the source of our economy and it's growth. He just gave Russia's Putin a list, of our most vulnerable possible cyber attack sites, asking Putin NOT to attack us in this way. You have to be kidding me ! Every enemy of the United States can now see this list making us even more prone to cyber attacks, what next our power grids? His wife Jill,...

    All I know of the McClure matter is what I've read in this column, but I have an opinion on a relevant, more fundamental topic. It is simply that laws awarding authority should exact an equal measure of responsibility. For examples; 1. A parole board decides that Joe has been a good prisoner, does not need the remainder of his dose of rehabilitation, and frees him. At some time when Joe still should have been in jail, he murders an elderly woman in her home. I believe members of the parole board that permitted this atrocity should bear a share...

  • "How I Learned to Love The New World Order," by Senator Joe Biden

    Harold Pease PhD|Jun 23, 2021

    There are few persons in U.S. leadership the last 50 years more committed to the New World Order (world government) than Joe Biden. So committed that on April 23, 1992, then Joe Biden, chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee’s European Affairs Subcommittee, published in the Wall Street Journal, “How I Learned to Love the New World Order.” In it he expressed a need for a “permanent commitment of forces for use by the Security Council”—a U.N. standing army adding, “Why not breathe life into the U.N.

  • Nuclear Arms Reduction: Actions Speak Louder Than Words

    Thomas L Knapp|Jun 23, 2021

    On June 16, US president Joe Biden and Russian president Vladimir Putin issued a Joint Statement on Strategic Stability, in which they "reaffirm the principle that a nuclear war cannot be won and must never be fought" and "seek to lay the groundwork for future arms control and risk reduction measures." With the extension of the New START treaty and joint statements like that, it might seem that things aren't looking too terribly bad with respect to reducing the threat of nuclear war. But talk and action are two very different things. Let's...

  • AG and OPI are Right: Racial Discrimination Has No Place in Montana Schools

    Jun 23, 2021

    By: Rep. Sue Vinton A recent thoughtful and well-reasoned Attorney General’s Opinion on “critical race theory” from Austin Knudsen has people on the left stamping their feet and pulling out their hair. The Montana Democrats’ spin machine is on full blast to justify racial discrimination in Montana schools, universities, and workplaces. In defense of the controversial teachings, liberal lawyers, legislators, and editorial boards are arguing that actively being racist is the only way to make sure people aren’t racist. Knudsen’s legal analysis in...
