Listen to the 10 min audio Read the transcript: ARMY CHAPLAIN INVESTIGATED FOR TRADITIONAL MARRIAGE RETREAT TOM LAMPRECHT: Harry, I want to take you to an article out of The Fayetteville Observer. That’s the local paper in Fayetteville, North Carolina, which is the home of the Fort Bragg Army Base. It is there that a […]

What should be done about school shootings? After the horrible shooting in Parkland, Florida, President Trump suggested that some teachers carry guns. “We need to let people know, you come in to our schools — you’re gonna be dead.” Anti-gun activists were horrified. But they probably didn’t know that many teachers have brought guns to […]

They’re out here saying those white cops who arrested that black lady last weekend at the Waffle House in Saraland, Alabama were racists. Reality Check: When a cop places you under arrest and you do anything other than passively comply, you may wish for him to say, “Oh, you don’t want to be arrested? My […]

Corporate boycotts are all the rage. Last week we have a boycott of the notoriously liberal Starbucks because two men wouldn’t leave when asked and now Starbucks is closing stores to do “implicit bias training”. In Alabama, a Waffle House in Saraland came under attack after a video showed an intoxicated and angry Chikesia Clemons being […]

Listen to the 10 min audio Read the transcript: TRUMP’S TAKE ON NORTH KOREA TOM LAMPRECHT: Harry, last Wednesday evening around 6:15, President Donald Trump along with Prime Minister Shinzo Abe of Japan held a press conference. They talked about a number of different things, including trade, but the primary focus of that press conference […]

Earlier this month, the 2017 National Assessment of Educational Progress, aka The Nation’s Report Card, was released. It’s not a pretty story. Only 37 percent of 12th-graders tested proficient or better in reading, and only 25 percent did so in math. Among black students, only 17 percent tested proficient or better in reading, and just […]

Judith Ann Neelley has spent the last 32 years in an Alabama prison for helping her sicko husband kidnap and murder a 13-year old girl in 1982. They chained little Lisa Ann Millican to a bed in a dirty motel room in Scottsboro, raped and beat her repeatedly, injected drain cleaner into her neck in […]

GQ recently published an editorial with a list of 20 books “you don’t have to read,” with justifications and alternatives written by various authors and members of the magazine’s staff. The list, which includes the Bible, outlines its parameters of judgment up front: “Some are racist and some are sexist, but most are just really, […]

I shouldn’t have to make a case against drunk driving. We all know it is wrong, it is deadly, and it ruins many lives. But people still do it. FULL DISCLOSURE: I have driven when I have had too many drinks, and I regret it even though I have never had any adverse outcomes. Not […]

A friend sat across from me and said, “I know my job is good work, but I’m just not passionate about it. I know I’m called to this other kind of work, and I’m wondering when God will let me actually do it.” I remembered myself, 10 years earlier, sitting with a mentor and saying […]

A fortnight ago, Viktor Orban and his Fidesz Party won enough seats in the Hungarian parliament to rewrite his country’s constitution. To progressives across the West, this was disturbing news. For the bete noire of Orban’s campaign was uber-globalist George Soros. And Orban’s commitments were to halt any further surrenders of Hungarian sovereignty and independence […]

The longer I’ve wrestled with the challenges of digital technology in my life and in the lives of others, the more convinced I’ve become that the ultimate answer is not “no technology” or “more technology,” but “more theology.” If we want a deep, lasting, and spiritual solution, we need to learn and teach deep, lasting, […]

I originally assumed that former FBI Director James Comey is an honorable and truthful man who was striving to be objective and avoid undue political influence. He has earned my change of mind. Our law enforcement and judicial institutions should operate, to the extent possible, above politics to ensure equal justice under the law. The […]

“My mom said you are welcome to come to our home and play anytime!” I turned, astonished, to look at who said this to my son as we were waiting to cross the street to go into school one morning. A sweet fourth grade girl, whom I recognized as another student with exceptional needs, was […]

“Ten days ago, President Trump was saying ‘the United States should withdraw from Syria.’ We convinced him it was necessary to stay.” Thus boasted French President Emmanuel Macron Saturday, adding, “We convinced him it was necessary to stay for the long term.” Is the U.S. indeed in the Syrian civil war “for the long term”?

Liberals have overused the word “racist” so much that the adjective now lacks any commonly agreed upon definition, and that’s a shame because we need words — especially that word — to mean something. Conservatives have now done the same thing with the phrase “fake news.” And we need to stop.

For some reason the popular consensus in Alabama politics is that now-Governor Kay Ivey single-handedly killed the Alabama’s Prepaid Affordable College Tuition in cold-blood. That would be impressive if it were true, but it is not. But this is politics, and sometimes the ends justify the means. Ivey’s opponent, Mayor Tommy Battle of Huntsville is […]

TOM LAMPRECHT: Harry, last week, Paul Ryan decided he would call it quits and that he would not run for reelection — he would step down as the Speaker of the House of Representatives. I want to […]

Sometimes the government tells us no.   I’m not allowed to sit in the Oval Office and watch President Trump mull over Fox and Friends, ready to Tweet at a moment’s notice. I (begrudgingly) accept that. I also can’t read classified intelligence briefings or call a special session of the Alabama Legislature. I could ask, […]

Move over, Trump Derangement Syndrome. Another unhinged liberal pathology is back: Chick-fil-A-phobia. Perhaps, in the interest of public health, the CDC should launch a weekly C-F-A-P surveillance report to map the recurrence of this culturally infectious disease. Early-onset symptoms include fear of pressure-cooked poultry, allergic reaction to waffle potato fries and an irrational hatred of […]

1. Deputy AG Rod Rosenstein has reportedly told Trump he IS NOT a subject of special counsel Robert Mueller’s probe — When Rosenstein visited the White House last week, he told the president he was not under investigation for the second time. — Rosenstein brought up the investigations himself and the revelation has assured the president that doesn’t […]

Today the State of Alabama, on behalf of its citizens, will strap convicted murderer Walter Leroy Moody to a table, stick a needle in his arm and then pump a series of poisons into his bloodstream until he’s dead. This is wrong for all sorts of reasons.

Charlize Theron recently became part of the elite group of Hollywood actors who have publicly considered leaving the United States because they don’t like the president, or because the country’s previously unrealized dark side has been exposed. In an interview with Chelsea Handler published by Elle last week, Theron offered some analysis of “our current […]
