Yellowhammer News invited Alabama voters to submit their opinions about the Roy Moore issue. Opinions are those of the authors.

Nations are returning to sexual barbarity because of an impotent, illiterate and apathetic church that is no longer salt and light

    Jean Twenge’s book iGen is one of the most fascinating—and depressing—texts I’ve read in the past decade. A professor of psychology at San Diego State University, Dr. Twenge has been, for years, studying trends among young Americans, and her most recent book focuses on the generation born between 1995 and 2012. Since this […]

    Alabama Senate President Pro-Tem Del Marsh has raised the idea of a “Washington conspiracy” against Judge Roy Moore and says that relentless attacks on the Republican Senate candidate will only serve to solidify his voting base. Marsh shared his thoughts in a recent interview on the accusations of sexual misconduct against Moore and […]

    A common feature of our time is the extent to which many in our nation have become preoccupied with diversity. But true diversity obsession, almost a mania, is found at our institutions of higher learning. Rather than have a knee-jerk response for or against diversity, I think we should ask just what is […]

    The people of Alabama would be well served if both Roy Moore and Doug Jones withdraw from the December 12 election, with both major parties formally acquiescing, effectively forcing the election to be postponed until November of next year. Both candidates, or either, could run again next year, but without the circus atmosphere, […]

    Since it’s been nearly two weeks since Alabama’s special Senate election was rocked by allegations that Roy Moore sexually abused a 14-year old girl, I issued a set of progress reports yesterday on how some of Alabama’s most influential institutions were handling the crisis. Interim grades were given to Moore’s campaign (C+), his […]

    After the 19th national congress of the Chinese Communist Party in October, one may discern Premier Xi Jinping’s vision of the emerging New World Order. By 2049, the centennial of the triumph of Communist Revolution, China shall have become the first power on earth. Her occupation and humiliation by the West and Japan […]

The political headlines can make Christians want to withdraw and ignore the mess. Here's why we shouldn't.

In an era of D.C. overreach, Alabama must begin to challenge mechanisms that make us beholden to the federal government in order to save our sovereignty.

Where would Roy Moore, Jeff Sessions and Elizabeth Warren be had it not been for the ACLU, Ted Kennedy and Republican obstructionists?

    It’s been 11 days since Alabama’s special Senate election was rocked by allegations that Roy Moore sexually abused a 14-year old girl when he was in his early 30s. Wagons were circled, denials were issued, and other accusers have come forward since then. So how well are some of Alabama’s most influential institutions […]

It's easy to get discouraged and doubt the power of speaking up, but this story shows how believers' voices helped get the adoption tax credit reinserted.

  Yellowhammer News announced today that it will partner with the Alabama Policy Institute (API) to help spread the conservative message across the state and advocate for free markets, limited government and strong families. The institute’s policy experts will begin contributing regular articles to the site, and Yellowhammer’s editors will place an emphasis on API’s […]

  From the “This is Actually Rather Important Good News” Department…. The City of Mobile this week secured a nearly $7 million grant for coastline/marshland protection and restoration. Quoting the press release from the office of Mayor Sandy Stimpson: The National Fish and Wildlife Foundation (NFWF) awarded the City of Mobile a $6,923,800 grant to conserve […]

    I’m an advocate of higher education and all, but so much for assuming that the development of common sense and sound judgment are part of the package. A Pew Research Center poll found that 77 percent of Democrats with a bachelor’s degree or more believe a person’s gender can be different from the […]

  Whore. Liar. White trash. Those are only some of the kinder names that men – well, men in the loosest of meanings – have been calling Roy Moore’s accusers online. I cannot print most of the harassing language they’re using to describe these eight middle-aged ladies from Alabama. It’s contemptible, and guys, this ugliness […]

Two events happened last week that exposed the generational divide facing conservatives in Alabama. First, a rally for Roy Moore attended by religious leaders descended into a bizarre, fire-and-brimstone scrum that ended with perennial presidential candidate Alan Keyes screaming at local and national reporters for daring to ask questions. “There’s a simple answer to your […]

    Bryan Nettles of Mobile is of a generation that doesn’t have the connection to the outdoors that I and my Baby Boomer hunting buddies have. We stayed outdoors and followed in our fathers’ (or mentors’) footsteps into the world of hunting, for both recreation and sustenance. However, like many from the later generations, […]

    Nationally syndicated columnist David Limbaugh (yes, El Rushbo’s little brother) will be carried on Yellowhammer News as part of the organization’s effort to bring the very best in conservative thought to its readers in Alabama. “Some say David is Rush with a thermostat,” said J. Pepper Bryars, the site’s editor. “Where his older […]

   Bocar, a Tier 1 automotive supplier, announced plans Thursday to invest $115 million in a new plant in Alabama, creating more than 300 jobs in a project that adds to the state’s booming automotive manufacturing sector. Bocar company leaders made the announcement at the Huntsville/Madison County Chamber, along with representatives of the City of […]

      If the crown prince of Saudi Arabia has in mind a war with Iran, President Trump should disabuse his royal highness of any notion that America would be doing his fighting for him. Mohammed bin Salman, or MBS, the 32-year-old son of the aging and ailing King Salman, is making too many […]

    The Washington Week in Review highlights some of what Alabama’s congressional delegation has been saying and doing this week: — Senator Luther Strange (R-Birmingham), who sits on the Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee, announced the adoption of an amendment that he co-sponsored alongside Senator Bill Cassidy (R-LA). The measure amends the Arctic National […]
