The stars are shining, the stripes are waving, and the greatest force for freedom in human history-the Red, White, and Blue-is alive and well. On this Fourth of July, we celebrate the most extraordinary success story the world has ever known: the United States of America. On Independence Day, we honor the birth of a nation founded on freedom, faith, and fearless resolve. From the halls of Congress to the fields of middle America, the Red, White, and Blue flies high, not just as a flag, but as a...
President Donald J. Trump has signed the most pro-growth, pro-worker, pro-America bill in modern history-and Alabama helped make it happen. This isn't just another piece of legislation. This is the One Big Beautiful Bill-and it's a game-changer for families, workers, farmers, and patriots from Mobile to Muscle Shoals. Alabama's Republican lawmakers stood tall, fought hard, and delivered a win for every freedom-loving American who's tired of Bidenomics and ready for a revival of common sense. Let...
Only in America, according to the Left's delusion can you livestream your “oppression” on a $1,200 smartphone while marching with corporate-sponsored signs bemoaning the end of freedom. The radical Left calls this resistance. The rest of us call it nonsense. You really can’t overstate how absurd the Radical Left has become. Picture it: mobs of privileged protestors flooding the streets, screaming at the top of their lungs that they live under tyranny, all while safely marching, waving signs...
On that iconic day ten years ago, June 16, 2015, the golden escalator moment wasn't just campaign theater, it was an economic turning point. A declaration that the era of managed decline was over and that America was ready to grow, win, and lead again. President Trump didn't just launch a candidacy; he launched a movement that put economic nationalism, working-class prosperity, and American exceptionalism back at the center of our political discourse. The globalist elite had handed over our...
President Donald J. Trump Earned the Nobel Peace Prize The Nobel Peace Prize has a rare chance to redeem its reputation-and it must begin by honoring the only world leader who has actually earned it: President Donald J. Trump. In an age of growing conflict and global uncertainty, Trump delivered something rare: peace through strength. Not once, but twice. Not in theory, but in the real world where lives hang in the balance and leadership matters most. The Iran–Israel Ceasefire: A Strategic T...

Let me tell you a little something about expectations-Oak Mountain had 'em. Piled high. Thirty wins, one loss, number one in the country, and a MaxPreps computer that gave Montgomery Academy a big, fat 0% chance to win. That's not a long shot. That's not a Hail Mary. That's a "don't bother showing up." But soccer isn't played on spreadsheets. It's played on grass. It's played with heart. And in Huntsville, it was played with grit, guts, and a maybe a little divine intervention. Montgomery...
The stakes couldn't be higher! President Donald Trump's "big, beautiful" bill is the lifeline America needs, and Senator Tommy Tuberville is sounding the alarm: pass this bill, or the GOP will be obliterated in the 2026 midterms. Representative Ronnie Jackson is equally clear, roaring, "ALL Republicans MUST stand with PRESIDENT TRUMP and get this DONE for the American people!!" This isn't just a policy fight-it's a do-or-die moment for the Trump Agenda and the soul of our nation. Republicans,...
Let's be perfectly clear: President Donald J. Trump has just scored one of the most consequential economic victories of the 21st century. The newly negotiated partnership between U.S. Steel and Japan's Nippon Steel is not just a business transaction-it's a bold declaration of America's industrial resurgence. It's the America First doctrine in action: protect our workers, rebuild our factories, and keep strategic assets right here at home where they belong. The Biden administration tried to sink...
The streets of Los Angeles and New York City have descended into anarchy, with immigration protests morphing into violent assaults on Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officials, widespread destruction of public property, and blatant disregard for the rule of law. Explosives detonated against federal buildings, rocks and concrete hurled at law enforcement, and taxpayer-funded infrastructure defaced-these are not acts of protest but of insurrection. Yet, the elected leaders of these...
Former State Representative Perry O Hooper Jr. (R-Montgomery) wishes President Donald J. Trump (R) a happy birthday. President Trump turns 79 today. Hooper was chair of the 2016 Trump Victory Fund....
President Trump Did What He Had to Do—He Took Out Iran’s Nuclear Threat Let me be absolutely clear: President Donald J. Trump did what any real Commander- in-Chief must do when faced with a direct threat to American security and the safety of our allies. He acted. And he acted decisively. The strikes on Iran’s nuclear facilities were not just a show of strength—they were a message. A message to Tehran, to their terrorist proxies, and to the world: The United States will not sit idly by while t...
Governor Kay Ivey has just delivered a masterstroke for the future of Alabama-and it fits hand-in-glove with President Trump's MAGA agenda and the mission of the Energy Dominance Council. She signed the "Powering Growth" plan into law.

In just 100 days, President Trump has delivered a record-breaking surge of leadership, action, and results unlike any other administration.

In his first 3 months, Trump has launched a historic border enforcement surge, reignited American manufacturing investment, and...
In American politics, reflecting on the first 100 days of a presidency are more than just a tradition-they are a test of purpose, power, and political will. Franklin Roosevelt was the first to make history by seizing that window with decisive action. President Donald J. Trump, in his second term in his first 100 days delivered political "shock and awe" as Saun Hannity so aptly described his first three months. And standing shoulder to shoulder with him have been Alabama's two U.S....
The recent situation at the University of Tennessee, where the head coach dismissed a highly-touted quarterback after he reportedly demanded more NIL money, has brought the urgent need for reform into sharp focus. Stories like this show just how far we’ve drifted from the values that once defined college athletics.

The ferocious campaign, led by the media with The New York Times at the forefront, to have Pete Hegseth fired as Secretary of Defense is not evidence of his unfitness but proof that he is President Trump’s man and the right leader for the job. When the establishment—defense contractors, career bureaucrats, political insiders, and their media allies—unites to smear a leader with such intensity, it reveals their fear of disruption to a broken system. Pete Hegseth, a decorated combat veter...
John Wahl -The MAGA Party Chairman President Trump Needs in Every State America was at a crossroads, facing rising inflation, open borders, and a government disconnected from the people. But then the American people did what they do best: they fought back. They sent Donald J. Trump back to the White House, and everything changed. The America First movement was reignited, and with it came a new wave of conservative leadership across the country. At the forefront of that resurgence was Alabama...
President Trump is leading America's most important comeback yet-our return to energy dominance and global economic leadership. While the Democrats and their cohorts in the media chases distractions, President Trump is making moves that matter. His establishment of the National Energy Dominance Council, created by Executive Order 14213 which will outline its comprehensive energy strategy this month, is nothing short of historic. This is classic President Trump: strategic, high-impact, and...
On May 13, 2025, in the regal capital of Riyadh, former President Donald J. Trump once again reminded the world why he's the greatest dealmaker in modern history. Standing beside Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, Trump unveiled a $600 billion Strategic Economic Partnership between the United States and Saudi Arabia-a monumental alliance that will go down as one of the boldest economic agreements of the 21st century. It is, by every measure, a victory for free markets, job creation, and global...

It is a time to rejoice in the miracle of new life, the triumph of hope over despair, and the eternal promise that through Christ, all things are made new. Easter reminds us that even in our darkest hours, light breaks through. The stone was rolled away. The tomb was found empty. Death was defeated. And with it, every believer was given a...

Every April, Second Chance Month challenges us to rethink how we treat those who’ve paid their debt to society. It’s not just about compassion—it’s about common sense. With nearly one in three formerly incarcerated individuals returning to prison in Alabama, according to the Alabama Department of Corrections' most recent recidivism data, it’s clear we need a better approach. That better way is taking root under the leadership of Director Cam Ward and the Alabama Bureau of Pardons and Paroles,...
