(Opinion) Today the U.S. Senate will vote on a bill to ban abortion after 20 weeks of pregnancy, the point when evidence shows an unborn child can feel pain from the procedure. When the bill, known as the Pain-Capable Unborn Child Protection Act, passed the House last fall, then-candidate Doug Jones said that he […]

  (Opinion) Sometime Monday the U.S. Senate will take initial votes on a bill to ban abortion after 20 weeks of pregnancy, the point when an overwhelming amount of evidence shows an unborn child can feel pain from the gruesome procedure. Most Americans – and most Alabamians – support the bill but Democrats plan to […]

  (Opinion) In the wake of his stunning victory last month, Sen. Doug Jones signaled that he wanted to leave the contentious election behind by being an “independent voice” who would work with “both sides of the aisle” and not be tied to “just one particular group or philosophy.” He’s already demonstrated a willingness to […]

  If your children want to go to college alongside the likes of Tua Tagovailoa or someday stroll the Avenue of Oaks to get their degree, then they better start studying. Spring Hill College in Mobile and the University of Alabama in Tuscaloosa are the two most selective schools in the state, according to the […]

While his teammates were celebrating their historic come-from-behind victory over Georgia last night at the Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta, Alabama center Bradley Bozeman focused on more important things. The 319-pound junior from Roanoke, Ala., dropped to one knee and asked his girlfriend to marry him. SHE SAID YES!!! Congratulations, @bradboze75. #RollTide pic.twitter.com/AlnpKNPPNZ — SEC Network […]

That deceptive campaign ad that targeted Alabama’s black voters, warning them that their “community” would know if they didn’t support then-candidate Doug Jones because their vote was “public record,” was partially funded by some of the most well-known corporations, film makers and unions in the nation, according to data from the Federal Elections Commission. A […]

(Opinion) A seriously annoying anti-Christian activist organization has signaled out Alabama’s governor because of what they call “preaching” on social media, demanding she remove the offending statements or face lawsuits and fines. Like most of America’s leaders, Gov. Kay Ivey sent Christmas-themed messages over the holiday season, but the aggressively litigious Freedom from Religion Foundation in […]

  Just in time for Christmas, folks. The holiday story we’ve all been waiting for. Destined to become a fireside classic that you’ll read to your children and your children’s children. Santa’s Husband, a children’s book from renowned publisher Harper Collins, tells the story of “a black Santa, his white husband, and their life in […]

It’s now been a week since the election of Doug Jones prompted Al.com’s editorial board to breathlessly declare that the “voice of justice” had spoken for a “burning movement” of “black voters, LGBT activists, women and young voters” who represent the future of our state. Their words crackled with confidence and jubilation because, in their […]

    Alabama teachers are one step closer to sparing the rod after the state’s local school board members recently voted to encourage policies that prohibit corporal punishment, also known as paddling. But does that mean they’re one step closer to spoiling the child? Almost every leading education and child psychology association says no, and […]

  By now many Alabamians have watched the campaign clip that had the rest of the country laughing at us for days: former Shelby County commissioner Ted Crockett’s interview last week with CNN’s Jake Tapper. Speaking on Moore’s behalf, Crockett said the judge “probably” believes homosexuality should be illegal and that Americans who aren’t Christian […]

It’s time to come together, y’all. Conservatives have been at each other’s throats in recent years, and nowhere is that more evident than in Alabama, and nowhere have the results of that infighting been more damaging than in Alabama. Consider the last few years alone. After taking control of the State Legislature in 2010 for […]

  9:35 — Oh well.  Shoulda. Coulda. Woulda.  It’s time to re-group, to heal, to learn … and to fight back. 9:25 — AP calls it for Jones.  Too soon? 9:24 — Tie ball game! 49.2 to 49.2 9:20 — Those odds makers are all over the place. About an hour ago they had Moore favored to […]

    I didn’t vote for Roy Moore because I believe at least some of those allegations are credible. I didn’t vote for Doug Jones, either, because he supports what any just man would call infanticide. And no, I didn’t waste it on a write-in candidate. I did what I’ve done in every general election […]

A conservative writer for the Washington Post asked this week what many in our movement nationally have been pondering while watching Alabama creep ever closer to sending Roy Moore to the U.S. Senate: “What’s the matter with Alabama?” Examining a recent poll, columnist Jennifer Rubin bemoaned that Moore received nearly 60-percent of the female vote, […]

  Chris Matthews appeared on MSNBC this week and made the absurd statement that Alabama’s “crazy” and “mythical” beliefs about Israel are what caused President Donald Trump to announce he’s moving our embassy from Tel Aviv to that nation’s eternal capital – Jerusalem. “Don’t think this isn’t related to Alabama next week. It is related,” […]

    Don’t want to vote for Roy Moore because of the allegations? Cannot support Doug Jones because he’s an abortion extremist? Think a write-in candidate will only help elect a Democrat? Conservatives in Alabama have a viable fourth option – voting a straight ticket. Voters will find a section for straight party voting at […]

    Over the weekend NPR aired a story about how Alabama’s business community fears that Roy Moore’s likely election to the Senate could hurt the state’s economic growth, costing jobs for the very people he seeks to represent. “Roy Moore is a disaster for business and economic development. He was a disaster even before […]

  It’s come to this, Alabama: Jimmy Kimmel said he’s ready to fly down to Alabama and have a fist fight with Roy Moore. Why is this happening? The judge and the late night comedian began a war of words after one of Kimmel’s writers mocked Moore at a rally Wednesday night at the Magnolia […]

    A bureaucrat from the controversial United Nation’s Human Rights Council (HRC) will visit Alabama next month to “investigate government efforts to eradicate poverty” and how it relates to our “obligations under international human rights law,” according to a statement from the organization. “The United States is among the richest countries in the world, […]

Pro-life candidates in the Alabama Democratic Party have long been on the political equivalent of the threatened species list. Abortion rights extremists have hunted them mercilessly, their numbers have dropped precipitously, and their once vast territory has shrunk to a few measly electoral acres on the outskirts of their party. But has the nomination of […]

  A retired Marine Corps colonel from Tuscaloosa has launched a long shot write-in campaign seeking to outflank Roy Moore and Doug Jones in next month’s special election, reported the Washington Post. “I just don’t believe that either one of them are qualified to be in the U.S. Senate,” said retired Colonel Lee Busby, 60, […]

  Remember that adage about not putting all of your eggs in one basket? That has happened to the anti-abortion movement. All of our votes are in the Republican Party’s basket. So too are the lives of millions of unborn babies, all depending upon the unpredictable success of a single political party, and at times […]

    Doug Jones would likely swamp Roy Moore in next month’s special election if the Democrat didn’t hold such extreme pro-abortion views. Consider this: — Nearly 60 percent of adults in Alabama believe that abortion should be illegal in all or most cases, according to a survey by the Pew Research Center. They found […]
