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...
This is a big election year in Alabama. All of our constitutional offices are up for election on May 19, 2026, and the races have begun. Included in the cavalcade are Governor, Lt. Governor, Attorney General, Agriculture Commissioner, State Treasurer, Secretary of State, and State Auditor. All of our statewide elected officials are Republicans, and all will be after the dust settles next year. We are a one-party state when it comes to statewide offices. Our legislature, House and Senate, are...
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...
Alabama’s economic story is rooted in movement—of people, products, ideas, and capital. From automotive and aerospace to forest products, chemicals, logistics, and shipbuilding, our state’s competitive edge depends on whether suppliers can reach customers reliably, workers can reach jobs quickly, and communities can deliver the utilities and digital capacity modern firms require. Smart infrastructure investment is the backbone of all three. It is a compounding asset that lifts produ...
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,...
After years of political scheming by the left, President Trump is bringing Space Command (SPACECOM) headquarters back to its rightful home in Huntsville, Alabama. This was never supposed to be about politics. After a thorough and highly competitive selection process, Huntsville was chosen as the best home for SPACECOM in 2021. In fact, three different Air Force Secretaries – including Joe Biden's Secretary of the Air Force, Frank Kendall – have confirmed that Redstone Arsenal is the best hom...
As the son of a World War II veteran, one of the main reasons I ran for U.S. Senate was to ensure the federal government was fulfilling its obligation to provide our great veterans with the timely, quality care earned through their service to this great country. It is the least we can do to give back to those who have sacrificed so much on behalf of our freedom. Unlike other countries, the U.S. military is, proudly, an all-volunteer force. Throughout our history, millions of Americans have...
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...
August 19, 2025 - FAIRHOPE, AL - Following the Alabama Gazette's recent coverage of the wrongful conviction claims surrounding inmate Murray "Bubba" Lawrence, Jr., his longtime advocacy team is drawing attention to another troubling chapter: the unexpected disengagement of a Birmingham law firm during a critical moment in his post-conviction fight. Lawrence, now having just completed his second decade of imprisonment, has maintained his innocence from the outset-as does the original court...
No one presided over its funeral, but vestiges of antisemitism died suddenly here, and no one missed its pernicious influence. Segregation based on race was an overt policy for years, but segregation on the basis of faith was a subtle form of discrimination, permeating through our political institutions for years. Its subtlety masked its effect, and its virtually unwritten code prevented our Jewish friends and neighbors from fully assimilating into our social and political communities. When the...
When we discuss Alabama’s economic development ecosystem, we often focus on workforce, education, and innovation. However, one of the most powerful engines that drives our growth—and connects our communities to opportunity—is our logistics infrastructure. Alabama's network of ports, both coastal and inland, transform the way business is done in our state. As a site selector and economic development consultant, I have worked with companies, large and small, to find the optimal locations for long-...
Tougher Criminal Penalties to Protect Children Should Be Number One Priority for Next Alabama Legislative Session The recent arrest of eight suspects in the sexual abuse and human trafficking of 10 minors in Bibb County shocked the state. Then there was the arrest of three women for the sexual violence of a child in Limestone County. Finally, the tragic story of a 3-year-old who was left in a hot car by a contract worker for the Alabama Department of Human Resources in Jefferson County added to...
You wrote only a couple of months ago about birthright citizenship. I understand the part regarding birthright citizenship is still on the table but that the second issue of lower court injunctive relief effective on a national level is more restrictive. I see a considerable amount of liberal media outlets publishing their criticism of President Trump’s policies especially relative to immigration, often quoting Justices Sotomayor, Jackson and Keegan. Much of the criticism is of Executive o...
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...
1. Mass Migration Sucks: This should come as no surprise to anybody but unfortunately, it does. Mass migration, as we have seen over the past ten years has become a complete and total failure. That is of course unless you are one of the millions of people who have invaded foreign lands in order to escape the world in which you lived just to make these better parts as inhospitable as the world you came from. Does anyone here remember the summer of 2015? I sure as heck do. That is the summer the...
Comrade Trump’s Big Soviet Bill further mashed the accelerator on our path to the junk heap of history. The One Big Beautiful Bill Act [OBBBA] is now law, adding hundreds more pages of unconstitutional text to the federal register. Echoing Speaker Pelosi (Trump’s past Kabuki Theatre friend when ‘donning’ his longer worn Blue Soviet jersey) shrieks “We had to pass the bill to know what’s in it,” our DC politburo is keeping the trend to oblivion set by Comrades Trump (45) and Biden these past year...
Let's get rid of some unnecessary weight today. I'm sure you're familiar with the scripture in I Peter 5 that says, “Humble yourself under the mighty hand of God so that you can exalt you in due time. Casting all your cares on Him because He cares for you.” The way I look at it is that it is an aggressive form of humility because cast means to throw it…not to just hand it over or flirt with it before you give it to God. It says to throw that stuff off of you. But just don't throw it anywh...
As early as last Thanksgiving, there were smoke signals coming out of Washington that our popular Senior Senator, Tommy Tuberville, was going to forgo an easy re-election jaunt to a second, six-year term in the United States Senate, to run for Governor of Alabama in 2026. The coveted Governor’s office was going to be open because Governor Kay Ivey could not run for another term. Kay will have served as Governor longer than anyone in state history, other than George Wallace, when her decade l...
Matthew 24:6-13 NIV 6 You will hear of wars and rumors of wars, but see to it that you are not alarmed. Such things must happen, but the end is still to come. 7 Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be famines and earthquakes in various places. 8 All these are the beginning of birth pains. 9 “Then you will be handed over to be persecuted and put to death, and you will be hated by all nations because of me. 10 At that time many will turn away from the faith a...
One of the more popular social media pages for historical attire has hit a social media milestone as "Ensembles of the Past" celebrates reaching 10,000 followers just in time for the proprietor's birthday on August 16th. A company that features custom made historical clothing, wedding apparel, and historical flag reproductions from extant originals, it has garnered a large following on social media due to its photography that manages, in spite of modernity, to evoke the aura of the era of the...
Back in 2011, a group of researchers at the University of Bristol performed some ultra high precision analyses on some of the Earth's oldest rocks from Greenland. These were four billion years old—almost as old as the Earth itself at 4.5 billion years. Using tungsten as a benchmark, the studies concluded that tungsten along with our precious metals in the Earth’s crust originated from a global bombardment of “about 20 billion billion tonnes of asteroidal material” that occurred about 200 mil...
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...
