The State of Working, and Non-Working Men
December 22, 2023 • Carrie Abbott
A recent report, “The State of the Working (And Non-Working) Man,” chronicles the problems working-age American men face in fulfilling their vital role as providers, including the disappearance of jobs paying a family wage, the explosion in the cost of middle-class goods, and the mass exit of men from the labor force over more than half a century.

Economic Suffering Stifling Maturing in the Young
December 21, 2023 • Carrie Abbott
Despite having a college degree and a decent job, 24-year-olds or even 30-year-olds are not independent because of the level of indebtedness today due to college tuition, rent, and other damaging economic trends. This stunting of natural growth is not just bad for individuals; postponing marriage and children has a lasting impact for generations. We look at the details and helpful insights from Jeffrey A. Tucker.
The Leftist Desire for World Control
December 20, 2023 • Carrie Abbott
Is it possible the left’s willingness to open borders is proof of Replacement Theory worldwide? Or is that another right-wing conspiracy? The left’s support of lawlessness, licentiousness, and ideology that tear down the family reveals their true desire to control through degradation. We examine insights from Jeff Davidson and Mark Lewis that make a strong case in this discussion on power and control.

Gender Ideology and Legislation Needed at the State Level
December 18, 2023 • Carrie Abbott
So, what is gender ideology? According to Jay Richards, PhD, it is the source of the false belief that children can be born in the wrong body, which doesn’t accommodate the reality of sex. Those promoting it don’t want you to use real terms or define it clearly, so they can continue to create confusion. Jay joins us to explain this troubling trend, and he brings solutions, making the case that states need to pass legislation clearly defining male and female. Jay is one of the best on these issues, so don’t miss this!

University Leadership Meltdown
December 11, 2023 • Carrie Abbott
In a high-profile congressional hearing, the presidents of three of the top universities in the US refused to explicitly say that calls for the genocide of Jewish people violate campus rules on harassment. We look at their responses and examine why so-called ‘elite’ schools are unable to push back on antisemitism. Even Whoopi Goldberg and Joy Behar see the ‘light’ on their terrible responses. UPenn President Liz Magill has resigned, so what about the other two? Some are calling for tax exemptions to be removed from university endowments, and we also investigate CAIR (an organization working with the Biden Administration) and its ties to Hamas.
