As critical race theory continues to cripple our nation, a new organization is doing what they can to stand up against it.
The group, Free to Learn Coalition, launched Thursday with over $1 million in advertisements, according to Fox News. The organization is running ads on national cable networks and in local markets, specifically targeting New York City, Arizona and Virginia.
According to the website, the group supports “the basic principle that students should be:

But prior to the Second World War, generals as a group were not revered or treated with any particular veneration or respect. In fact, in the nineteenth century, full-time US military officers were often treated with suspicion and contempt. While state militia officers were regarded as indispensable night watchmen who preserved order, the full-time government employees who served in the federal military were often derided as lazy and otherwise unemployable.

Mike Pence has let everyone know who’s side he’s on from here on out.
In a speech at the Reagan Library Mike Pence declared that he was “proud” of certifying the election on January 6th.
Pence’s exact words were “I’ll always be proud that we did our part, on that tragic day, to reconvene the Congress and fulfill our duty under the Constitution and the laws of the United States.”
He then went on to say that it would be *un-American if he decided the election himself.
(*No dorkhead, you were supposed to merely send back the double submissions to those states which sent duplicates.)

National Guard Lt. Col. and Green Beret Rep. Mike Waltz (R-FL) — who prompted Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Gen. Mark Milley’s defense of critical race theory during a hearing this week — pushed back against the idea that learning critical race theory is akin to learning about “history” and that opposing it makes one racist.
Waltz had queried Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin during the hearing on why there was a lecture at West Point on “Understanding Whiteness and White Rage.” While Austin acknowledged that should not have happened, Milley was invited to respond to Waltz by a Democrat congresswoman and said he thought it was important to study critical race theory to understand “white rage,” tying it to the January 6 Capitol riot.
Waltz told CNN’s Brianna Keilar:

Senator Tom Cotton (R-AR) on Thursday reacted to Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Army Gen. Mark Milley’s comments in support of the study of Critical Race Theory in the military.
Cotton, who rose the rank of captain in the U.S. Army before being honorably discharged, said it is a “waste of time” to expose troops or students in military schools to Critical Race Theory, arguing it undermines unit cohesion and morale. Instead of focusing on “culture wars,” Cotton said the military should “focus on real wars.”
“The army and military as a whole need to focus on real wars, not on culture wars,” Cotton said on FNC’s “Fox News Primetime.”
“I hope I’m wrong, but what I see there from a distance is what appears to be not education but indoctrination,” host Will Cain posed.

Joe Biden is misleading the nation right now as he FINALLY details his "plan" to fight crime

He says an assault rifle ban stops crime - FALSE
"[A]ssault weapons bans did not significantly affect murder rates at the state level." One of many studies: https://t.co/2rLttJGF75
Once politicians lose all fear of the press, they will say and do anything in their hubris, as we now see with the completely unmoored Joe Biden. And having lost not just the respect of the public but also the regard of the very progressives they idolize, America’s journalists are routinely slapped down as the fawning toadies they have become.
The Democratic Party won the long march through journalism, but this Pyrrhic victory has meant the destruction of every principle of journalistic integrity liberals ever claimed to champion.
In American journalism, there are supposed to be some clear, nonnegotiable third-rails.
One is zero tolerance for overtly racist language and comportment among our movers and shakers. Reporters, for example, for four years damned Donald Trump for his neutralizing summation that there were both “fine people” and extremists mingled among the hordes of protestors during their occasionally violent encounters in Charlottesville, Virginia.
It mattered little to the media that Trump added qualifiers of “many” and “both” sides of the protests

Tragedy in Olde Town Arvada, Colorado, this week as police fatally wounded a good guy with a gun after he stopped a cop killer dead in his tracks.
John Hurley, 40, was shopping at the Arvada Army Navy Surplus store on Monday afternoon when shots rang out across the street at a plaza.
At that scene, a shooter, later identified as 59-year-old Ronald Troyke, ambushed a local police officer named Gordon Beesley. Officer Beesley would not survive the attack.

Thanks to Joe Biden, a unanimous U.S. Senate, and 415-14 vote in the House, we have a new federal holiday: Juneteenth. The holiday celebrates the day that the Union forces arrived in Galveston, Texas, and announced that the town’s slaves were free pursuant to the Emancipation Proclamation. Various groups on the Right are urging Americans to embrace the new holiday. For example: Kay C. James at the Heritage Foundation, Zuri Davis at Reason, and Dan McLaughlin at National Review. What could be wrong with celebrating freedom for those who were in bondage? Absolutely nothing. But celebrating the freedom of individuals to chart their own course and to enjoy equal rights under a color-blind Constitution is alien to the new holiday. Juneteenth became a holiday to focus Americans on so-called “systematic racism” and to use past injustices to encourage a progressive agenda. James, Davis, and McLaughlin are merely useful idiots for Leftists. They ignore the real purposes behind the holiday to our detriment.

Yup. I agree with Gen. Flynn. The Deep State is going to create something, either related or unreleated to the AZ audit so that the AZ audit doesn't gain traction with the public. pic.twitter.com/aqMZPcDTCq
