No Matter What Trump Says, Boycott Bud Light

Published

on

On Tuesday, former President Donald Trump used his social media platform Truth Social to call for the end of the boycott of Anheuser-Busch and Bud Light. There is speculation about why Trump did this, including the fact that a lobbyist for Anheuser-Bush is reportedly holding a fundraiser for him next month. In his post, the president cited a variety of reasons for ending the boycott, but none of them make sense.

He noted that Anheuser-Busch employs many people, including some veterans, but this is hardly unique. Any company of this size will invariably employ veterans and make donations to respectable charitable organizations. He also claimed Anheuser-Busch is not a woke company, even though they exploited a mentally ill transgender activist and celebrated his affinity for women’s clothing with no respect whatsoever for basic decency, the truth, or their customer’s values. Anheuser-Busch never publicly acknowledged what it did wrong. If that’s not a woke company, please tell me what is.

Trump pointed out that there are more egregious examples of corporate wokeness. He’s right, but the fact that there are companies worse than Anheuser-Busch does not negate their sins. If such thinking were taken to its logical conclusion, only one boycott could ever exist, and it would target the most woke company in America while every other woke company got a pass simply because they’re not the absolute worst. This would be a misguided approach, to say the least.

Abandoning the Bud Light boycott would be a catastrophic error in the

Wisconsin Poll Watcher Warns That Observers Are Being Taught To Be ‘Delicate’ On Election Integrity Issues

Published

on

Republicans in the battleground Badger State say they’ve got an army of election observers ready for duty this Election Day. But one volunteer who will be observing at Milwaukee polls is raising concerns about what he sees as the GOP’s timid approach to checking threats on election integrity. 

The source, who asked to remain anonymous, attended a recent Zoom training session for attorney observers led by the Republican National Lawyers Association. The session was off the record and closed to the press, but the source sent the video recording of the Zoom meeting to The Federalist because he said he was concerned that the people serving as frontline guardians of election integrity may be going much too gently into that good Election Night. 

“This is the first time I had not heard, ‘Don’t be afraid to assert your rights’ in some form,” the veteran elections observer told me in a phone interview from Wisconsin.  

RNLA trainers leading the session stressed that the job of the monitoring attorneys is to be the association’s “eyes and ears,” to serve as a deterrent for misconduct and election fraud, but to do so without being “confrontational.” That’s understandable advice from Milwaukee election veterans who lived through 2020, when poll watchers were blocked from viewing and some were threatened with removal under the cover of Covid distance restrictions. 

With the phony narrative pushed by corporate media that election workers are under constant threat from “election deniers,” power-tripping chief inspectors might be on hair-trigger edge

USCCB Distorts Church Teachings To Cajole Catholics Into Voting For Open Borders

Published

on

This past February, President Biden referred to the tsunami of current migrants as “newcomers.” A euphemism that normalizes illegal migration, it was a cue for Catholic voters. The word was the brainchild of the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB). It appeared in the 2024 USCCB document “Forming Consciences for Faithful Citizenship: A Call to Political Responsibility.”

The Gospel mandate to “welcome the stranger” requires Catholics to care for and stand with newcomers, authorized and unauthorized, including unaccompanied immigrant children, refugees and asylum-seekers, those unnecessarily detained, and victims of human trafficking.

Under the heading “Global Solidarity,” the USCCB conflates immigration with migration. The first is a legal process, in effect a contract between arrivals and the state. In current context, the latter term refers to illegal entry by the brute force of overwhelming numbers. Moralistic disdain for distinction between “authorized and unauthorized” entry is the core of open borders dogma.

In August, Pope Francis used the bully pulpit of St. Peter’s Square to pressure nations of the West to keep their borders open, no matter the consequence to their native populations. He presented prudent immigration restriction as a moral crime and dismissed legality. The USCCB reported:

“It needs to be said clearly: There are those who systematically work by all means to drive away migrants, and this, when done knowingly and deliberately, is a grave sin,” he said during his general audience Aug. 28.

Without irony — and short on historical sense — the USCCB

Why The American Founders Would Adore Trump’s Tariffs Plan

Published

on

On his blockbuster interview with Joe Rogan last Friday, Donald Trump discussed reverting the United States’ top revenue source to taxes on imports — tariffs — instead of the income tax.

This was the greatest interview EVER!

JOE ROGAN: “Did you just float out the idea of getting rid of income taxes and replacing it with tariffs? — Were you serious about that?”

DONALD TRUMP: “Sure, why not?” pic.twitter.com/t7an2Mbe3j

Trump went into American political history to explain why tariffs are a better source of government revenue than a system such as an income tax on citizens. The American Founders agreed.

They debated and soundly rejected a federal income tax system, opting instead in 1789 to institute an ad valorem tariff on “all articles of foreign manufacture” as the sole mechanism for funding the federal government. The Tariff Revenue Act of 1789 was the very first law on the books of the very first Congress. That’s why a constitutional amendment was required in 1913 just to make an income tax system legal in this country.

The income tax system has fueled a monstrous expansion of federal power and created a military-industrial complex that is insatiable in its quest for control of global resources to keep itself in power. This complex seeks to destroy the last vestiges of our Founding system in favor of a globalist “New World Order” and will destroy or even kill anyone who stands in its way — including Trump.
