When bullets fly on the streets of Alabama's capital, leadership either steps up or steps aside. Governor Kay Ivey stepped up. While others issued sympathy and spin, she drew a line in the sand. "All available state assets are being discussed, and all options remain on the table," she declared. That's the kind of language Alabamians have been waiting to hear, not the bureaucratic mush of committees and consultations, but a clear promise that the State of Alabama will not surrender its capital...
I want to begin by thanking Navy SEAL veteran and US Senate Candidate Jarred Hudson for saying what millions of Americans feel in their gut: members of Congress should not collect one red cent in salary while the government is shut down. Jarred has put it plainly, from the perspective of someone who has actually lived sacrifice, worn the uniform, and stood shoulder-to-shoulder with those who put their lives on the line for our freedoms. His call is powerful and correct, and I am proud to stand...
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's speech before the United Nations last week was a master class in courage and clarity. He wasn't speaking "truth to power" - the General Assembly has no power. He was speaking truth in the face of hypocrisy. The same chamber that cheers dictators and terrorist sympathizers couldn't bring itself to listen to the elected leader of Israel, the one democracy in the Middle East that has stood tall against terror for generations. Netanyahu wasn't there to beg for...
The speeches in Quantico by Secretary Hegseth and President Trump have been needed for a long time. Decades of decay by every President since Reagan and Bush 41 brought us here. Finally, the Pentagon was told the truth to its face. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth walked up to the podium and detonated a bomb in the middle of military complacency: "The era of the Department of Defense is over. Welcome to the Department of War." With one executive order, the polite fiction ended. This is not about...
Most coaches walk away when the fire dies out, when the fans start grumbling, when the game has passed them by. Bruce Pearl isn't most coaches. He is leaving Auburn at the very top of his game, still winning, still recruiting, still commanding the national stage. That is not retiring. That is reloading. Bruce Pearl has never just been about basketball. He has always been a builder of men. He turned raw kids into leaders, teaching them toughness, loyalty, faith, and character. The scoreboard...
In times of trial, America’s character is tested, not in words, but in action. When Charlie Kirk was taken from us, the conservative movement did not collapse, it was called to rise, to renew, to refashion itself in courage and conviction. And in that moment, a leader emerged, not by accident, but by preparation: Erika Kirk. Erika Kirk is far more than a custodian of a legacy. She is its expansion, its living evolution. Her life has been a tapestry of service: from winning Miss Arizona USA to f...
What we witnessed in the aftermath of Charlie Kirk's assassin was one of the most powerful addresses in modern American history; Deliveries by his widow. The words were raw, real, and righteous: the evil has just created 100 million Charlie Kirks. Evil thought it had silenced him. In truth, it has unleashed something it cannot possibly control. Charlie's death has torn away the mask. Every patriot now sees clearly, this isn't politics as usual. This is spiritual war. This is good versus evil....
“If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.” 2 Chronicles 7:14. This week at the Museum of the Bible in Washington, President Donald J. Trump stood before the Religious Liberty Commission and spoke words that many of us have longed to hear from our nation’s leaders. He reaffirmed what the Founders understood, what milli...
America is grieving. On September 10, 2025, Charlie Kirk was senselessly taken from us at just 31 years old. Shot while addressing a crowd at Utah Valley University, he was doing what he had always done, fearlessly speaking truth and rallying young people to stand up for God and country When I first heard the news, my heart sank. This wasn't just the death of a man; it was the silencing of one of the boldest voices of our generation. Yet even in sorrow, we cling to God's promise: "Precious in th...
Since President Trump took charge, the nation’s capital is already changing, shopkeepers are standing taller, criminals are on notice, and Attorney General Pam Bondi is proving that law and order can be restored where weak liberal leadership failed. Since President Trump took over, in a matter of days things have already changed in Washington, D.C. Let’s be honest, before Trump stepped in, our nation’s capital had become more dangerous than ever. Each trip I made in recent years was worse than...
Congratulations to Mayor Gordon Stone on his re-election in the closest mayor's race in Pike Road history. Just 54 votes decided the outcome, with Stone edging challenger Mark Spurlin 1,566 to 1,512 after one of the largest turnouts our town has ever seen. That razor-thin margin speaks volumes: every vote mattered. Every conversation, every door knocked, every opinion expressed, each one made a difference. But now that the ballots have been counted, it's time to celebrate Mayor Stone's victory...
Today is a day that will be remembered for generations in Alabama history. President Donald J. Trump has officially announced that the permanent headquarters of the United States Space Command will be located in Huntsville, Alabama. This is not just a victory for our state-it is a victory for common sense, fairness, and the future of American strength in space. I am thrilled to report that the U.S. Space Command headquarters will move to the beautiful locale of a place called Huntsville,...
What's Happening in Washington Will Be the Model for Every Blue City Since President Trump took charge, the nation's capital is already changing, shopkeepers are standing taller, criminals are on notice, and Attorney General Pam Bondi is proving that law and order can be restored where weak liberal leadership failed. Since President Trump took over, in a matter of days things have already changed in Washington, D.C. Let's be honest, before Trump stepped in, our nation's capital had become more...
On Friday, history was made. President Donald J. Trump welcomed Vladimir Putin to American soil for the first time since the war in Ukraine began. The meeting took place in Alaska, a location chosen personally by President Trump for its symbolism and strategic value. By selecting Alaska, the President ensured that Putin would set foot on American soil but not in the political swamp of Washington. The world witnessed the red carpet reception and the American military flyover that marked...
President Trump has done what the globalist class said was impossible: deliver not one, but three landmark trade agreements that prioritize American workers, rebuild our industrial base, and realign global economics on terms that favor freedom over bureaucracy. This new economic trifecta, $550 billion Japan investment framework, the rebalanced UK free trade agreement, and the long-overdue EU tariff realignment represents the boldest shift in trade policy since the Reagan era. These aren't...
Two hundred days into his second term, President Donald J. Trump is proving that "Making America Great Again" wasn't a campaign slogan-it's a daily reality. What we're seeing is a masterclass in leadership, execution, and unapologetic patriotism. The economy's booming, the border's secure, our enemies are on their heels, and the American worker is finally back where they belong-at the center of national policy. This isn't a comeback story. This is the great American revival-bold, confident, and...
As the school bells ring across Alabama this fall, students aren’t just returning to class, they’re stepping into a better future. Thanks to the bold leadership of Governor Kay Ivey and the Alabama Legislature, our state has just delivered one of the most transformative education reform packages in the nation. With the passage of the RAISE Act, CHOOSE Act, and FOCUS Act, Alabama has made a clear and courageous statement: we’re not here to follow; we’re here to lead. Together, these three l...
In radical times of political change the next generation steps forward not timidly, not apologetically, but with the confidence, vision, and toughness to carry the cause to new heights. In my lifetime, I've seen Alabama produce giants of the conservative movement, Senator Jeremiah Denton, Congressman Bill Dickinson, Governor Fob James, and most recently Senators Tommy Tuberville and Katie Britt. We are witnessing the early chapters of two new names that will join that storied list: Emory Cox...
Washington is having a meltdown—and not the good kind. For the first time in nearly three decades, Congress passed a rescission package that actually cuts spending, and the usual suspects in the media and permanent political class are dismissing it as “symbolic.” You’d think a $9 billion spending rollback would get a standing ovation. Instead, we get scoffing from folks who have never balanced a checkbook, let alone a national budget. But here’s the reality: this is not symbolic. It’s hist...
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 Triumph On June 24, 2025, Iran and Israel: longtime enemies...
As a longtime resident of Pike Road and friend of Gordon Stone, I have witnessed firsthand the remarkable transformation of our community under his leadership. With the August 26 election approaching, Pike Road faces a defining choice: steady leadership that honors its heritage while building for tomorrow. Gordon Stone embodies that leadership. Raised on his family's cattle farm in Wilcox County, Gordon Stone learned the fundamental values that guide his leadership today: hard work, integrity,...
It's been one year since the unthinkable nearly happened. One year since an assassin tried to kill Donald J. Trump-now the 47th President of the United States-and nearly succeeded. One year since a rooftop sniper, in broad daylight, nearly altered the course of history with a single bullet. And one year since the American people, horrified by the failure of their own government to protect him, came roaring back louder, stronger, and more determined than ever. That day-July 13, 2024-was supposed...
It's 110 degrees in Las Vegas and Bruce Pearl isn't poolside sipping a margarita-he's sweating through an Auburn polo shirt, yelling from the second row of NBA Summer League like it's the Final Four. The game? Philadelphia 76ers vs. Dallas Mavericks. The stakes? Practically nothing-unless you're one of the guys on the floor clawing for a two-way contract and a shot at the dream. For most big-time college coaches, this kind of environment wouldn't even merit a retweet, let alone a personal...
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...
