AP Photo/Eric Schultz Amidst all the arguments about tax rates, foreign policy, border enforcement, and judicial appointments, the fact that the United States still exterminates hundreds of thousands of babies a year via abortions often goes unnoticed by Republican politicians. After all, some left-wing corporate overlord paying too high of a tax rate is clearly the issue of our time, right?
Even still, you’d expect high-level Republicans to not actively undercut the case for life. Call it the “if you aren’t helping, at least shut up” principle. Yet, Susan Collins can’t even manage that.
The Maine senator lashed out at the Texas abortion law yesterday, calling it “inhumane” and insisting that the federal government needs to “codify” Roe vs. Wade legislatively. How’s that for limited government? Susan Collins calls Texas abortion law ‘inhumane,’ defends Roe v. Wade as ‘law of the land’ https://t.co/mTd9pTOhyd — Fox News (@FoxNews) October 3, 2021 Sen. Susan Collins, R-Maine, said Saturday that she believes the Texas law banning most abortions in the state, which took effect last month, is “extreme, inhumane and unconstitutional,” according to the Associated Press . In addition, Collins voiced support for Roe v. Wade as the “law of the land.” Roe v. Wade is a landmark decision that legalized abortion across the country in 1973. It’s not the first time Collins, a moderate, has voice support for what many conservatives have opposed for decades. “I support codifying Roe,” Collins said in September, the Los Angeles Times reported. “Unfortunately the bill … goes way beyond that. It would severely weaken the conscious exceptions that are in the current law.” Calling a law that seeks to stop the death and dismemberment of children “inhumane” is truly a statement that would make Orwell blush. Abortion is such a blight on society that even many of the most progressive European nations have far stricter controls on it than the United States does. Yet, Collins has the audacity to actively attack Texas for attempting to do something about the carnage? Further, what business is it of hers? Would she take kindly to Ted Cruz going after a […]

Will America-First News Outlets Make it to 2023?
Things are looking grim for conservative and populist news sites.
There’s something happening behind the scenes at several popular conservative news outlets. 2021 was bad, but 2022 is proving to be disastrous for news sites that aren’t “playing ball” with the corporate media narrative. It’s being said that advertisers are cracking down, forcing some of the biggest ad networks like Google and Yahoo to pull their inventory from conservative outlets. This has had two major effects. First, it has cooled most conservative outlets from discussing “taboo” topics like Pandemic Panic Theater, voter fraud, or The Great Reset. Second, it has isolated those ad networks that aren’t playing ball.
Certain topics are anathema for most ad networks. Speaking out against vaccines or vaccine mandates is a certain path to being demonetized. Highlighting voter fraud in the 2020 and future elections is another instant advertising death penalty. Throw in truthful stories about climate change hysteria, Critical Race Theory, and the border crisis and it’s easy to understand how difficult it is for America-First news outlets to spread the facts, share conservative opinions, and still pay the bills.
Without naming names, I have been told of several news outlets who have been forced to either consolidate with larger organizations or who have backed down on covering certain topics out of fear of being “canceled” by the ad networks. I get it. This is a business for many of us and it’s not very profitable. Those of us who do this for a living are often barely squeaking by, so loss of additional revenue can often mean being forced to make cuts. That means not being able to cover the topics properly. Its a Catch-22: Tell the truth and lose the money necessary to keep telling the truth, or avoid the truth and make enough money to survive. Those who have chosen survival simply aren’t able to spread the truth properly.
We will never avoid the truth. The Lord will provide if it is His will. Our job is simply to share the facts, spread the Gospel, and educate as many Americans as possible while exposing the forces of evil.
To those who have the means, we ask that you please donate. We have options available now, but there is no telling when those options will cancel us. We have our GivingFuel page. There have been many who have been canceled by PayPal, but for now it’s still an option. 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!
