Common Sense Prevails

SCOTUS has ended the fantasy that the Constitution requires states to blindly accept an athlete’s gender delusions.

The Supreme Court ruled 6 to 3 yesterday that states can prevent boys claiming to be girls from cheating in girls’ sports. This is a victory for women, for fairness, for biological reality and for common sense.

It’s also a victory for President Trump and the conservative movement. If Hillary Clinton had won the 2016 election, she would have appointed three justices to the Supreme Court, not Donald Trump. If Hillary had won, yesterday’s decision would have been 6 to 3 in favor of boys and men exploiting girls and women and stealing their honors and awards.

To be clear, yesterday’s decision does not require states to restrict sports teams based on biological sex. It does, however, end the fantasy that the Constitution requires states to blindly accept an athlete’s gender delusions.

It is beyond absurd that the Supreme Court of the United States had to waste its time on this issue. But this is what happens when radical leftists insist men can get pregnant and demand that you lie about biological reality.
 
The inability to define what a woman is or the delusion that men can get pregnant should be disqualifying for serving in public office. If a candidate or politician can’t get this right, why would anyone trust them on anything else?
 
 
 
“Birthright” Citizenship Scam Continues
 
Unfortunately, common sense did not prevail in another big case decided by the Supreme Court yesterday. In a 5 to 4 opinion, the majority of justices ruled that the 14th Amendment guarantees citizenship to anyone physically born in the United States, including the children of illegal aliens. Those children are often called “anchor babies” because the citizen baby “anchors” the whole family to the United States.
 
Sadly, Chief Justice John Roberts and Justice Amy Coney Barrett joined the court’s three ideologically leftist justices. Yesterday’s opinion, which was expected after the court heard oral arguments, struck down President Trump’s executive order ending so-called “birthright citizenship.”
 
Unconditional birthright citizenship practiced in the United States is not the norm. Approximately 80% of countries around the world reject it outright or limit it in some way.
 
 
 
The Big Tent
 
Democrat Party media talking points went out Monday to every Democrat on how to “finesse” the Marxist insurgency taking over their party. No matter what role someone has in the Democrat Party infrastructure, the responses were some variation of this theme: “We don’t agree on everything with everybody in our party, but we are a big tent. The purpose is to grow the party, not shrink it.”
 
These radical communists will burn down the Democrats’ big tent with the party establishment inside it as a prelude to burning down America. That’s what Marxists do.
 
So, what is this big tent? What are these “new ideas” that Adam Schiff “welcomes”?
 
One big tent idea is that there should be a new country called “Palestine” that replaces the “fake country” of Israel. Another big idea is that Islam is a valued partner in the Left’s coalition, even though the Islamic faith is the most antisemitic, anti-Christian ideology in the world.
 
Wherever Islamists are in a solid majority, they persecute and kill Jews and Christians when they can get away with it. This is not rhetoric. I served on the U.S. Commission on International Religious Freedom. The worst persecutors of Christians and Jews in the world are communist and Islamic countries.
 
What else is in this big tent? They are welcoming people who refuse to celebrate the 250th anniversary of America because they believe our country is evil. A new poll finds that only 8% of Democrats say America is the greatest country in the world. But 42% of Democrats say America is “worse than average,” “among the worst” or “the worst” country in the world.
 
People who believe we are responsible for 9/11 are being welcomed into the Democrats’ big tent, along with those who regularly incite violence against conservatives, Christians and anyone who disagrees with them.
 
The Democrats’ “big tent” is a big lie.
 
Try naming the pro-life Democrats in Congress or pro-life Democrat governors. There are none. Let’s name all the Democrats who have rejected the LGBTQ agenda. There are none. Who are the prominent national Democrats willing to take on the trans war against the Natural Law, God and truth? There is nobody.
 
So, to summarize: Jew-haters are okay in the Democrat’s big tent. Pro-lifers are not okay. America-haters are welcome. Anyone who believes in normal marriage is not.
 
 
 
The Coalition At Work
 
In one week’s time, the Democrat Party in Minnesota celebrated Somali Independence Day and Gay Pride Month. The contradiction is stunning.
 
Thousands of people were waving Somali flags. Women were dressed head to toe in burkas. Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey, who mocked the prayers of Christian children when a transgender assassin was trying to kill them, was praising the nation of Somalia. If Somalia is such a great country, why are so many Somalis here?
 
Later, Frey signed legislation repealing the city’s ban on gay bathhouses. These are places where homosexual men go to have sex with complete strangers. These “bathhouses” were the primary vector for the rapid spread of AIDS in the 1980s. They were shut down across the country, including in San Francisco.
 
But Frey is reopening them so homosexuals can commit acts that if done in Somalia would get them sentenced to death.
 
Yet, those Somalis and homosexuals will proudly vote for the Democrat Party this November. How can that be? It’s because they have one big thing they agree on—they hate Judeo-Christian civilization. They hate Jews and Christians. They hate Israel and America.
 
 
 
Left-wing Violence
 
Andy O'Brien, communications director of the Maine AFL-CIO, reposted an article by a Democrat consultant opposing Graham Platner, the Democrat Senate nominee in Maine. He commented on the article making the chilling promise that such dissenters will be “the first up against the wall when the revolution comes.”
 
When the predictable outrage hit, O'Brien claimed he was joking and was quoting from a science fiction novel.
 
Everybody who has studied history knows the meaning of those words—"up against the wall.“ They are not symbolic. They’re not from some obscure book. This is the same spirit found in Mein Kampf. Whether it’s communism, Nazism or Islamism, violence goes hand-in-hand with totalitarianism.
 
 
 
God’s Fog
 
One reason why we are seeing a rise of radical Marxism in America today is because our schools and universities have become indoctrination camps. Our children are not being taught American history, but anti-American history.
 
They are being taught that America is an evil nation founded on slavery and genocide. And they certainly are not being taught how God protected George Washington and the Continental Army.
 
So, here’s a brief reminder highlighting one of the many miracles that made America possible.
 
After the British Army left Boston in March of 1776, General George Washington predicted their next move would be an attack on New York City. So, he marched his troops south to reinforce New York while the British forces regrouped in Canada.
 
On June 29th, Washington received reports that 45 British ships had entered New York Harbor. The next day, there were 110 British ships, and more were coming. More than 30,000 British troops soon occupied Staten Island.
 
The massive British Army attacked the Continental Army on three fronts. The Battle of Brooklyn went badly for Washington. But the British general did not press his advantage. Instead, he ordered his men to dig in. He expected more troops to sail up the East River and surround Washington’s forces.
 
Those British troops never arrived because there was no wind to move their ships. That bought Washington time for a daring evacuation of 9,000 men across the river at night. But it wasn’t enough time. Many of Washington’s troops were still in Brooklyn as dawn broke.
 
Then, a thick, heavy fog suddenly rolled in, allowing the rest of the Continental Army to escape. When the fog cleared, the British were stunned to find the American soldiers had disappeared.
 
God protected George Washington and the Continental Army from certain defeat. And because Washington saved the Continental Army in New York, he was able to fight on for another seven years so that the Declaration of Independence became more than just words on parchment.
 
As we celebrate America’s 250th birthday, pray that God continues to bless and protect the United States of America.
