Barr: 'Militant secularists' trying to impose values on believers

'Religion is being driven out of the marketplace of ideas'

 

"Militant secularists" across America long have charged that religious people are "imposing" their views on them.
But it's actually the other way around, contended Attorney General William Barr in an interview with Cardinal Timothy Dolan on Sirius XM.

"I feel today religion is being driven out of the marketplace of ideas and there's a organized militant secular effort to drive religion out of our lives," Barr told Dolan, the Federalist reported.

John C. Calhoun Vindicated


by Charles King Bird

This essay was first printed in the Southern Partisan Magazine, Volume III, Number 1 (1983).
 
INTRODUCTION

One hundred and forty years ago, Senator Henry Clay proposed a constitutional amendment to limit the veto power of the president of the United States. Senator John C. Calhoun replied to Clay; and that speech in reply is the most succinct version of Calhoun’s famous doctrine of concurrent majorities. Calhoun argued, in effect, that there ought to exist several powers of veto upon the impulses of temporary numerical majorities.

“As the Government approaches nearer and nearer to the one absolute and single power, the will of the greater number, its action will become more and more disturbed and irregular; faction, corruption and anarchy, will more and more abound; patriotism will daily decay, and affection and reverence for the Government grow weaker and weaker until the final shock occurs, when the system will rush to ruin; and the sword take the place of law and Constitution.” So Calhoun said in 1842.

EU's battle after Brexit: Brussels faces fight to prove the 'doomsters' wrong without the UK

Via Anthony



The EU now faces life without the United Kingdom and will have to get to grips with becoming a smaller, poorer and weaker union. 


When Britain voted to leave the European Union in June 2016 it felt to many observers that the bloc’s economic and political foundations were crumbling before their eyes.

The world’s fifth-largest economy and the EU’s dominant financial centre had decided to quit just as the 2015 immigration crisis provided fresh impetus to populist politicians the length and breadth of the continent.

Man Writes The Best Diary Entry Ever On Shovelling Snow

December 8: 6:00 PM.
It started to snow. The first snow of the season and the wife and I took our cocktails and sat for hours by the window watching the huge soft flakes drift down from heaven. It looked like a Grandma Moses Print. So romantic we felt like newlyweds again. I love snow!

December 9
We woke to a beautiful blanket of crystal white snow covering every inch of the landscape. What a fantastic sight! Can there be a lovelier place in the whole world? Moving here was the best idea I’ve ever had. I shoveled for the first time in years, felt like a boy again. I did both our driveway and the sidewalks. This afternoon the snowplow came along and covered up the sidewalks and closed in the driveway, so I got to shovel again. What a perfect life.

December 12
The sun has melted all our lovely snow. Such a disappointment. My neighbor tells me not to worry; we’ll definitely have a white Christmas. No snow on Christmas would be awful! Bob says we’ll have so much snow by the end of winter, that I’ll never want to see snow again. I don’t think that’s possible. Bob is such a nice man, I’m glad he’s our neighbor.

A new Rasmussen poll shows black voter support for President Trump has doubled in the last year to an astonishing 42%.

In November, polls by both Rasmussen and Emerson showed Trump had a remarkable 34% approval rating among black voters, compared to the 8% he received from blacks in the 2016 election.

An analysis by the Washington Examiner in November showed the dramatic rise in support by blacks could make the difference in the 2020 election.

Sanders docs reportedly show plan to bypass Congress, stop border wall, declare national emergency

Via Billy


When Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders, one of the top candidates for the Democratic presidential nomination, says he wants a revolution, you better believe him.

Socialists, and their ugly stepsisters, communists, have no care for the American system of government and no concern about breaking centuries of tradition.
That's why, according to the Washington Post, Sanders’ team is already in the process of crafting a series of executive orders that would bypass Congress and challenge the very foundation of American democracy.
