AL.com’s ‘Reckon’ has nudged its way into the political satire business, with a recent short film called “Life Cycle of an Alabama Politician.” The video features Reckon’s Managing Producer, John Hammontree – who also sits on AL.com’s editorial board – acting as a stumping Alabama politician who recites all the lines about his intentions to […]

Alabama has been through a lot over the last few years. A speaker of the House was convicted and a governor lost his office over an affair with a political operative/concubine provided by a shady special interest group. It hasn’t been great and the attorney general of the state has been absent in most of […]

**SPOILER ALERT! Article contains many spoilers about the film** I went to see A Quiet Place, John Krasinski’s new thriller, with absolutely no anticipation of finding theological or spiritual themes. I just wanted a fun evening at the movies. How wonderful when a film surprises you! I don’t know if I can find the golden […]

If Donald Trump does not wish to collaborate in the destruction of his presidency, he will refuse to be questioned by the FBI, or by a grand jury, or by Special Counsel Robert Mueller and his malevolent minions. Should Mueller subpoena him, as he has threatened to do, Trump should ignore the subpoena, and frame […]

It’s been six months since Rachel and I began editing Yellowhammer News, bringing with us a traditionally conservative focus on politics, culture and faith, a new and experienced team of writers, and an innovative new website design. And the response has been incredible – Yellowhammer News articles are now being read more than half a million times […]

Michelle Wolf is not the first so-called comic to maliciously insult conservatives and Republicans at a White House Correspondents’ Association dinner, but she was intentionally mean-spirited, and even after the blowback, she’s unrepentant. Members of the liberal mainstream media have expressed disapproval over some of Wolf’s comments, saying she went too far. But I’m not […]

The other night at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner, Michelle Wolf, who I’m told is a comedian, regaled the black-tie and sequin-gowned crowd with her “jokes.” Almost all were in extremely bad taste and/or wildly offensive, but one has become accustomed to that sort of coarseness in the comedy clubs and even on mainstream television. […]

Taking a page straight out of 1984, Merriam-Webster’s online dictionary, recently changed the definition of assault rifle to fit pro-gun control talking points. Bre Payton of the Federalist highlights how the online dictionary modified the entry for “assault rifle” with the following definition: “noun: any of various intermediate-range, magazine-fed military rifles (such as the AK-47) that […]

Former Alabama Chief Justice Roy Moore is a controversial figure, no doubt. Those on the left hate him, some on the right love him, and most Alabama voters just want him to go away. But like a recurring rash, Alabama Republicans cannot shake the non-stop Roy Moore news. Recently Moore announced he was suing his […]

Here is a short list of prominent conservatives and independent thinkers who’ve been accused by their critics of being an “Uncle Tom” or some other vitriolic variation on the overplayed left-wing theme of being a traitor to their race or gender (“Aunt Tomasina,” “Uncle Juan,” “Aunt Jemima,” “Uncle Wong,” etc.): –White House Press Secretary Sarah […]

It has been 13 days since Kanye West praised Candace Owens for her ability to think for herself and her will to stand up to Democrats who wish to see her fail after she shut down a Black Lives Matter protest during an event at UCLA. Kanye’s seven-word tweet that read ‘I Love the Way […]

Every day a member of the media whines about how their profession is under attack. These attacks generally consist of people telling them that their stories are biased and that they are untrustworthy. Some of this criticism is fair, much of it is not. But what is clear, at least in Alabama, is that the […]

TOM LAMPRECHT:  Harry, Sky News is reporting that the president of South Korea, President Moon, has said President Trump should win the Nobel Peace Prize. “What we need is only peace,” Mr. Moon told a room […]

Election night this November is probably going to be a win for Democrats. That’s how it usually goes in midterm elections – the party that won the White House suffers a setback two years later. It won’t help the GOP’s cause with President Donald Trump, still underwater in approval polling and a revved-up Democratic Party […]

Why does American journalist Abby Martin report for media run by socialist murderers? Martin once worked for RT, Russia’s state-run news network. Now she’s got a similar gig at teleSUR, an anti-capitalist, pro-socialist news network funded by Latin American leftists. I’d never heard of teleSUR before researching this week’s YouTube video. But teleSUR matters because […]

Saturday’s White House Correspondents’ Association dinner, billed as a celebration of the First Amendment and a tribute to journalists who “speak truth to power,” has to be the worst advertisement in memory for our national press corps. Comedian Michelle Wolf, the guest speaker, recited one filthy joke after another at the expense of President Trump […]

Birds of a feather flock together, so President Donald Trump and Kanye West aren’t an unlikely pair. They deserve each other. Arrogant … check. Deplorable views on women … check. Unafraid to thumb their chins at bashers … check. I wouldn’t want my sons to be like either man, but I can give an appreciative […]

Ballots this November will offer Alabama a chance to authorize the display of the Ten Commandments on public property. Here are two quick thoughts on the issue: The Ten Commandments are important, and we are bound to keep them. “In fidelity to Scripture and in conformity with the example of Jesus, the tradition of the […]

It appeared about two weeks ago written by Art Friends, a clinical psychologist. He says — remember, you are what you […]

It’s easy to dismiss Kanye West. It’s easy to dismiss him because he’s nutty. This is a fellow who tweets about antique fish tanks and fur pillows. This is the guy who calls himself Yeezus (after Jesus) and suggested that then-President George W. Bush didn’t care about black people in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina. […]

Yesterday, I argued that it’s much too soon to be advocating a Nobel Peace Prize be granted to President Trump for his diplomatic progress on North Korea. Rich Lowry, editor of National Review, made much the same argument in his column today but with a few more specific reasons: – “His [Kim’s] father destroyed a […]
