Amid Monday afternoon coverage swooning over cowardly Texas Democrats fleeing the state in order to block Republican-backed voting reform legislation, MSNBC hailed the craven political stunt as a “national symbol for the fight for voting rights.” The segment then devolved into a partisan strategy session in which federally-elected Democrats were told there was “a lot” they “can learn” from the state’s left-wing lawmakers abandoning their responsibilities.

We Often Feel Like David Taking on Giants
Today’s Goliath is the Mainstream Media Industrial Complex that brainwashes the masses.
Our mission is very straightforward: To counter the false narratives and nefarious agendas destroying America today. It isn’t easy for obvious reasons; despite incredible growth over the last year we are still a very tiny fish in a huge media pond. But we’re fighting and we will continue to do so, Lord willing, for as long as we possibly can. The battle for America’s present and future is too important for us to back down to the giants that stand in our way.
We need help. I don’t want to say “desperately,” but the need is definitely great. If you have the means, please donate through our GivingFuel page, PayPal, or our Substack page. Your generosity is what keeps these sites running and allows us to get the truth to the masses. We’ve had great success in growing but we know we can do more with your assistance.
Thank you, and God Bless!
