RE: Thanksgiving

On October 3, 1863, President Lincoln issued a proclamation designating “the last Thursday of November next, as a day of Thanksgiving.” Lincoln’s announcement marked the culmination of a multi-decade campaign by Sarah Josepha Hale to make Thanksgiving into a national holiday. Although Lincoln wrote the vast majority of his state papers, the Thanksgiving Proclamation was, in fact, drafted by Secretary of State Seward.

"My Ancestors Were at the First Thanksgiving," and I’m Proud of It

As we approach Thanksgiving Day, the Leftist noise gets louder and louder.

Brianna Lyman, writing for The Federalist, says, "When the first Thanksgiving took place, my family didn’t have a heated home. They didn’t have refrigeration or the luxury of running to Shop Rite for last-minute fixings. They were actually fighting not only for their lives, but for something much greater than themselves — and of course, the left is trying to destroy that very thing."

Yes, her family was among the first settlers to arrive in the New World.

Her observations are priceless.

Trans Obsession: Americans Moving Away While Media Doubles Down

Last Friday, the Transgender Day of Remembrance, was a reminder that the Left — and the corporate media in particular — are still completely infatuated with transgender ideology. That assertion may seem completely unrevealing, but for peace-and-homestead-life-loving conservatives, it’s an essential reminder.

Yes, conservatives and Christians have made tremendous gains on the issue during the Trump Administration. The International Olympic Committee’s plan to ban male athletes in female sports, under pressure from Trump, is just one example of many. And his choice to capitalize on Kamala Harris’ pro-trans-procedures-for-illegal-immigrants-in-prison views likely played a role in sinking her campaign.

But the media and the Left just can't let it go, and in fact, are doubling down.

It's an obsession. Or a possession.

After a month of so-called "PRIDE," last Friday, we were once again called upon to set the day aside as a Day of Remembrance of the Transgender movement.

The president has stated that the US will recognize only two genders: Male and Female.

Randi Weingarten: Only DEI Can Save Us From Fascism

American Federation of Teachers President Randi Weingarten claimed during a Wednesday event in New York that diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) policies were all that stood in the way of fascism.

The woman who claims that the children belong to teachers is now claiming that DEI is the only thing that can save America from fascism.

Public education refuses to keep its hands off our kids.

Boys Want to Get Married, Girls Do Not: Why?

The Christian Post is reporting, "The share of 12th graders who say they plan to get married has declined precipitously among girls, and fewer of them are interested in having children, too."

This is based on a report from the Pew Research Center.

Data for the report were collected by the University of Michigan’s Monitoring the Future project, which is an ongoing study of the behaviors, attitudes, and values of Americans from adolescence through adulthood. The study surveys more than 25,000 eighth, 10th, and 12th-grade students annually.

What's going on with marriage?
