Until recently, public school teachers and other public employees were forced to join unions and pay dues to support political agendas diametrically opposed to their core values and principles. That is no longer the case. Public employees now operate in a changed environment that gives them more power when it comes to their unions. Joining me today is courageous woman who battled the unions and became the plaintiff in a case that eventually reached the U.S. Supreme Court. My guest is Rebecca Friedrichs, the author of Standing Up to Goliath: Battling State and National Teachers’ Unions for the Heart and Soul of Our Kids and Country.

Was it all worth it? The conflict had left 2,400 U.S. service members dead and more than 20,000 wounded; more than 145,000 people in all, including Afghan military, police and civilians, have died, according to a 2018 report from Brown University’s Costs of War Project; America has spent $737 billion on the war. Had all this death and maiming and money been justified by the results? Few people in 2001 disputed that evicting al-Qaeda from Afghanistan was necessary. But that mission had mostly been achieved in the early days of the war. The war has become mere BACKGROUND NOISE for Americans. It was barely mentioned during the first two Democratic presidential debates. Now, the Trump administration is considering a withdrawal of troops in exchange for a Taliban promise to block international terrorists from operating on Afghan soil, as well as assurance the group will take part in an intra-Afghan dialogue. What has America gotten right, what had we gotten wrong — and what, in the end, were the consequences? Col Jim Waurishuk is retired from USAF, he is a career senior intelligence and special missions officer, he served as Deputy Director for Intelligence for U.S. Central Command and has worked on […]

FEAR is one of those dirty four letter words that powerful people use to pickpocket Americans in broad daylight. The climate change profiteers say it’s a numbers game, that the earth is burning up if we just follow the facts. That the numbers don’t lie. But isn’t it the interpretation of those numbers against historical data that creates the argument in the first place? The counter argument is that climate change is simply another vehicle to stoke fear and control the people. One of the most obvious arguments is how the climate people dropped the ‘global warming’ moniker and went to ‘climate change’, might the next name change be ‘global freezing’? We will explain more on that and what is truly behind the climate debate. Climate change is the perfect vehicle to take away your freedom and rights: No airplanes – AOC and New Green Deal; No guns – Kamala Harris and Beta O’Rourke; No beef – Bernie, AOC and Burger King’s Impossible WHOPPER; Forced Abortion – Bernie and Population Control as Climate Change Solution; Back in Paris accord – USA pays for everything; No fossil fuels – 85% of US energy needs come from Fossil, 85% of France from Nuclear Power, Duh! Govt controls everything, including whether […]

Conservatives are being squashed, shut-down and silenced. Conservatives are being kicked off of platforms with no explanation. As Politick Rick explains “Defacto censorship has become the order of the day, the left-wing censorship machine wants to de-platform, de-legitimize, and destroy conservatives to include you and me.” What is it about conservative values that scare the hell out of progressive democrats? “Examining the latest data, more and more Americans are turning against the founding principles of America. From amending the idea of free speech to the rise of socialism, there are many seeking to undo what makes America great. Compounding the problem is an advocacy news media seeking to promote an ideology rather than facts. It is time to sound the alarm, and insure our basic liberties are protected,”says Nicholas Giordano. Giordano is a Professor of Political Science and the host of The P.A.S. Report political podcast. There comes a time when THE PEOPLE need to rise and demand fairness, respect and truth. That time is now. Conservative voices must rise to reclaim our constitutional principles. The second part of our conversation begins with Politick Rick as he lays out his vision for Giant Slayers. Follow on Twitter: https://twitter.com/GiantSlyers Follow on Parler: […]
Extremist hate groups like Sleeping Giants, Media Matters, MoveOn, and Southern Poverty Law Center are intimidating and now bullying the advertisers and sponsors of conservative platforms they disagree with. They do this all in the name of FAIRNESS, or FREE SPEECH, as they’ve convinced themselves that they’re doing some sort of a good deed for the public. They insist on having the last word on what they think is good for the nation and when they don’t get it⏤they get ugly and downright nasty. If these groups had a real argument, they would welcome the process of debate. Freedom of Speech and debate are as American as our national symbol is. A new group is being formed by Politick Rick, and is fighting back on behalf of every freedom loving American. GIANT SLAYERS is a Patriot Movement that works to stop left-wing censorship of conservative media. Today in part one of our LAUNCH, you’ll meet Politick Rick, and some of the freedom loving warriors that are ready for battle. Joining us along with Rick, is Colleen, Christina and Ray.

What if we lost electric power … for years? Would you be prepared? There is virtually no discussion or attention on America’s electrical grid, yet the risk is real. When you lose electrical service for minutes or hours⏤it is inconvenient. If you were to lose electric for weeks, months, or years⏤the scenario would be entirely different. You would have to change your way of life. Life would de dramatically different almost immediately, and it would change not for the better with each passing day. If the United States is attacked with the intended target being our technology⏤the result could have meaningful consequences to everyday life as we know it. It could also be an electromagnetic pulse (EMP), caused by natural occurrences that causes an extended blackout. Either way the result would be heavy damage to our infrastructure, requiring life-altering steps to preserve our way of life. Crumbling roads, unsafe bridges, drinking water, air traffic system are all in serious need of repair⏤America’s infrastructure is desperately in need of investment, according to the American Society of Civil Engineers. The ASCE estimates the US needs to spend some $4.5 trillion by 2025 to fix the country’s roads, bridges, dams, and other infrastructure. This was the […]

At the core of the struggle in America is this tug-of-war between free-market principles and government led policies. Many polls and studies are showing that young people are looking at socialism as favorable. Rep Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez says,“Young people are more informed than past generations.” More informed, or have they been indoctrinated through the public education system? The fragility of maintaining our republican form of representative government is revealed daily in the news, not from the point of view by the MSM as a necessity to be cherished and protected, but as an evil to be done away with because it represents the wicked fruits of decades of “white supremacy” and “white privilege.” That’s the trope AOC and her Socialists want us to believe and accept because alleged white injustice has suppressed the hopes and dreams of people everywhere, ignoring that people were once drawn here by what America offered that no other country in the world could provide: individual freedoms!

Nothing can be more absurd than the practice that prevails in our country of men and women not following the same pursuits with all their strengths and with one mind, for thus, the state instead of being whole is reduced to half, the great philosopher, Plato said that. The lack of women in positions of power; Patriarchy; Not enough women at the table; Sexism, racism and economic inequality; Access to equal opportunity; The lack of respect for caregiving; Navigating career and motherhood… What do you think is the biggest challenge facing women in the U.S. today?

The tracking down and ending the life of Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi was a feat that will go down in history as a triumph against evil. Here are some details that you may not know. And what about the reaction of the left to the success of the President and this extraordinary mission?
