Reagan vs. Biden, a real no-brainer
Comparing Ronald Reagan's success as a president versus Joe Biden's success in the White House is a lesson in opposites. Reagan, to this day, is still counted by Americans as one of the best presidents in U.S. history. Biden will be remembered as worse than Jimmy Carter -- no small feat when you consider the weakness of Carter's administration. As Craig Shirley, author of the new "The Search for Reagan," says: Reagan saw individuals in terms of their inherent worth, and governed accordingly. Biden, on the other hand, sees only the worth of Big Government.

America's deplorable antisemitism problem
America's colleges and universities have become ground zero for the Jew-hatred movement, and for many, this is a shocking eye-opener. But Dr. Zachary Marschall, w/ Campus Reform and Leadership Institute, says the antisemitism has been festering on America's places of higher learning for decades. The rot must be cleansed. As Marschall said, yes this is America -- but guess what: antisemitism, Jew hatred, violence against Jews -- a call to eradicate Jews from the face of the earth -- it can all happen here.

Time for Joe Biden, Democrats to fly
It's high time for America to take back American Exceptionalism, and the key way to do that is to boot Democrats, particularly President Joe Biden, from office. Democrats have done nothing but devastate the American economy, education system, law and justice and constitutional order, and most especially, the border. As tens of thousands pour into America from countries with socialist and Marxist governments, and then disappear into parts unknown across the United States, the Democrats cheer because they see in these illegals their next batch of loyal voters. This is a situation that cannot last forever. Soon enough, America the free will be America the communist. Richard Levine, author of "Pillars for Freedom," discusses.

Digging deeper on Founding Fathers
One of today's hottest political discussions is the one that goes like this: What would Founding Fathers do if they were alive today? And it's getting harder and harder to reach consensus on that point because too many Americans are not well schooled on Founding Father logic. So how to debate effectively? Michael Barone, one of America's most respected political pundits and authors, weighs in with a scholarly look at how the founders really arrived at their conclusions. His new book -- "Mental Maps of the Founders" -- explains more.

Globalism 101 and how to fight it
The coming globalist storm is on the horizon -- in fact, it's actually here and now. But as one historian says: Not much under the sun is new. When it comes to the globalist attempt to steal away America's sovereignty, we've actually been here, done that in previous decades. And guess what? Freedom wins. But that doesn't mean the war's won. Larry Schweikart discusses Davos, globalism and the fate of American liberties, as well as his new book, "Patriot's History of Globalism: Its Rise and Decline." It's the decline that brings the smile.

Demonic days bring fog of daze
Today's evil times are certainly having an effect on society, leading to everything from LGBTQ lunacy to terror attacks on Israel -- to even a nation of American citizens who've forgotten their strength and liberty lies with God, not government. Bible prophecy is unfolding before our eyes. So how to make sense of the darkness and live a life of light in Christ? Pastor Jack Hibbs of Calvary Chapel Chino Hills in California has a new book. "Living in the Daze of Deception," and he says what's needed are discerning Christians who aren't afraid to counter the wicked narratives. It's true; if more Christians involved themselves in politics and culture, the politics and culture wouldn't be so evil.

Finding joy in dark times
America certainly is facing some dark and perilous times and it's becoming more and more of a challenge to maintain a positive attitude. But it is possible to have joy. It starts with realizing the definition of joy is not the same as the definition of happiness, and that the idea of following one's heart leads to misery. Brant Hansen, author of "Life Is Hard. God is Good. Let's Dance," discusses. And what he says about maintaining peace during trials and tribulations is enlightening and motivating.

Truth still matters and evil is still evil
The reason why American society is seeing such a rot spread through its culture and politics is because truth is something that is seen as an archaic, old-fashioned type of idea that doesn't really belong in modern day. Fact is, too many people take their truth from their own emotions, and scoff the idea of a truth that comes from the Bible and ultimately, from God. If Christians would stand taller and louder for truth, then the politics of America wouldn't be so globalist and dark, and the culture wouldn't be so immoral. Author Josiah O'Neil discusses.

DEI Brainwashing is worse than you think
Diversity, Equity and Inclusion is a buzz phrase that's been tossed about with growing frequency through the years. And while it sounds soft and warm and fuzzy and safe, its end game is quite the opposite. This is Marxism at work to tear apart America's capitalistic system. Kent Heckenlively has a new book that goes undercover at some of America's corporations to see how DEI is being taught to employees, and oh my gosh, it's a big brainwashing that's turning our businesses into social justice warriors. Take a listen and learn how deep the propaganda's gone -- and how to fight to save America's freedoms.

Sen. Ron Johnson: Be wary of COVID shots
Sen. Ron Johnson: Be wary of COVID shots The number of deaths due to COVID shots is rising at an alarming rate, but what's even more alarming is the accompanying reluctance of America's own government agencies and medical experts to acknowledge this is happening. Sen. Ron Johnson has been tracking the safety and negative impact reports from these shots for years, and what he's finding is concerning enough that he says: Don't take the shots. Worse, though, is the stonewalling he's experiencing from those who told us these shots are safe; and who continue to tell us to take the boosters -- but who don't want to prove with data, reports, analyses and truthful information that yes, Americans can trust their claims. The best advice for now is don't trust the medical bureaucrats.
