Serbia’s coronavirus crackdown and a warning for America

In Belgrade, Serbia, soldiers are out and about, patrolling with machine guns, seeking to stop anyone on the street who has dared violate a presidential declaration of emergency and nationwide lockdown -- all due to the coronavirus outbreak. This is drastic times 10. And in America, a pastor was just arrested for holding church service.

Coronavirus crisis driving Americans to God: Poll

A new poll from Pew Research Center says that coronavirus has brought believers to their knees like never before -- in prayer -- and that 15% of Americans who say they never or seldom pray, have begun praying, while 24% of those say they're without religion, have nonetheless turned to God.

Atheist professor says he’ll believe in God — if the coronavirus kills Donald Trump

A professor at Texas Tech University suggested in an email that he'd renounce his atheism if -- get this -- President Donald Trump were to die from the coronavirus. And that right there is a solid reason to take the estimated $27,000 in-state or $39,000 out-of-state costs per year to attend this school and spend the money elsewhere.

Nancy Pelosi, the real coronavirus fiddler

Coronavirus a crisis fit for a new world order

If crisis is a means by which Democrats achieve their political ends -- and it is; just think of their famous "never let a crisis go to waste" playbook -- then imagine what coronavirus means to the globalists. What a dizzying opportunity for them to achieve massive goals.

EPA issues smart coronavirus rules, as Greta Thunberg scowls

The Environmental Protection Agency, addressing the coronavirus outbreak, suspended all of its regulations and standards for companies. The radical environmentalists are up in arms. Greta Thunberg, in particular, is up in arms. But boo freaking hoo.

America First: Let’s make it permanent

Once upon a time, the idea of America taking care of America was a given. Even for Democrats. Then came Donald Trump, and suddenly, America First became radical. Why? Because Democrats decided they wanted to score political points more than they wanted to serve the American citizens, that's why.

MyPillow to fight coronavirus with private sector sword

MyPillow, the company of crack-addict-turned-Christian Mike Lindell, has announced the manufacture of face masks for hospitals -- the latest corporate body to fight coronavirus from a private market perspective. And these are the types of businesses America's growing socialist groupies would like to tax 'til it hurts.

Boris Johnson and his silly coronavirus shutdown of the U.K.

U.K. Prime Minister Boris Johnson ordered the country's citizens to stay home, stay inside and stay off the streets -- else face fines, police roundup and, if necessary, even jail. Talk about starting a national panic. Until you take a couple seconds and think about it, that is. Then it's just -- well, stupid.

Churches close during coronavirus outbreak, and America grows dark

The vast majority of people who came to America in her founding days did so to obtain the freedom to worship freely. New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Maryland -- they were settled as "plantations of religion." Fast forward to 2020, the time of the coronavirus outbreak, and churches have closed. Yet Walmart remains open. Priorities, please?

Civil liberties hang in coronavirus balance

It's times like these -- times of national crisis, times of national coronavirus emergency -- that civil rights, constitutional rights, God-given individual rights become most vulnerable, most tested. It's times like these, though, they also become most necessary.

Boeing bailout because of coronavirus? Gimme a break

Airlines, suffering from lack of passengers due to coronavirus fears, say they need a bailout -- that they're just too big to fail and if the airlines fail, we're to believe, America's entire economy will fail, as well. What a dishonest, destructive message to the American people -- to America's free markets. On bailouts, just say no.
