Distortion of the First Amendment is nothing new. But here’s a glaring example of misreading “the separation of church and state.” This glaring example is out of the Golden State. In California schools, it would seem that Jesus is out, but worshiping human-sacrifice-requiring Aztec deities may soon be in. In a 1996 book I wrote […]

[Winston Churchill is cited in this piece] During one of the darkest periods of World War II, Winston Churchill asked aloud, “Will Britain surrender too?” Never. At the time, in the summer and fall of 1940, the great leader of the U.K. declared, “I expect that the Battle of Britain is about to begin. Upon […]

[Pictured: Thomas Jefferson] Here is a video blog (vlog)—a video commentary—by Dr. Jerry Newcombe on how George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, and Abraham Lincoln used to be heroes in our culture. (They still are to millions of Americans). But with today’s woke crowd, they are somehow villains.   https://www.djameskennedy.org/?play=2110fgac-yesterdays-heroes-todays-villains

[Pictured: Christ Church, Arlington, Virginia] It used to be a joke to see signs in historic places boasting “George Washington slept here.” But I think in a very real sense, a handful of churches could legitimately have a sign proclaiming, “George Washington worshiped here.” His active Christianity reflects a key aspect of our nation’s founding—the […]

Ronald Reagan once observed, “Government is like a baby. An alimentary canal with a big appetite at one end and no sense of responsibility at the other.” I thought of that quote when I read some of the details of the $1.9 trillion stimulus bill that is touted as “COVID relief.” Critics have called this […]

America has never been perfect. Injustices have happened. But now, tens of millions of young Americans are brainwashed into thinking that America is evil and always has been. Dr. Jerry Newcombe, Executive Director of Providence Forum, looks at what this war on our history means for the future. https://www.djameskennedy.org/?play=2103fgac-down-the-memory-hole

Just in time for Presidents Day comes the announcement from the school board of San Francisco that they are renaming 44 of their public schools (about one-third of the total) in order to conform to today’s politically correct standards. Among the names on the way out the door are George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, and Abraham […]

Some leftist government officials, in the name of trying to fight the spread of COVID-19, have come down hard on churches. One of the governors implied that he wanted churches to be closed during the pandemic because he wanted to avoid “high risk, low reward” behavior. He has defined abortion clinics as essential. But churches […]

The old song said, “Don’t Know Much About History.” If Joe Biden gets his way, we could revise the title to “Won’t Know Much About History.” One of the last things outgoing-President Trump did was to sign an executive order to acknowledge America’s special history. This is the 1776 Commission initiative. It is geared toward […]
