It’s no news flash that younger Americans today generally tend to be less patriotic than previous generations. But the “patriotism gap” is growing rapidly—and perhaps most concerning is the fact that the gap is most drastic among younger Americans. Writing for HotAir.com, Ed Morrissey notes: “Pride in America has sunk to its lowest standing ever, […]

Today, we as a nation are monstrously in debt and borrowing more and more off the backs of our children and grandchildren. Yet Alexander Hamilton, our country’s first Secretary of the Treasury, said in Federalist 35 that our economy will work best when we have less needless regulations. He notes: “It might be demonstrated that […]

For 42 years American school children have been subject to a barrage of misinformation about our American history. This has helped cause many of them to hate America.

In Concord, Massachusetts on April 19, 1775, the “shot heard round the world” rang out, which was the very beginning of the American War for Independence. But, syndicated columnist Don Feder notes, that town recently “removed three historical markers, which […]

For more than 50 years, the left has promoted abortion in America. But last week we saw something new in this battle.

Here’s a quick quiz. When you think of December 25th, what comes to mind? No doubt Christmas is the answer. How about February 14? St. Valentine’s Day, of course. When you think of July 4th, the birthday of America comes to mind. But what do you think of in reference to January 6th? What comes […]

It’s amazing how, in our age of the great unraveling, we see the value of a college education imploding before our eyes. The evil Hamas did in Israel on October 7th, 2023—leaving 1200 Israelis dead in brutal attacks on men, women, children, and even babies—revealed their true goals.
