EXCLUSIVE: GOP Gov. Kristi Noem announces ‘largest tax cut in South Dakota history’

By Aubrie Spady

FIRST ON FOX: Gov. Kristi Noem, R-S.D., who is seeking re-election in the midterms this November, announced that she will eliminate the sales tax on all grocery purchases in South Dakota, the governor’s office told Fox News Digital.

“I have seen families across South Dakota struggling to make ends meet with rising inflation because of President Biden’s policies. His failed liberal agenda has caused the cost of food to skyrocket, and family budgets are being stretched thin,” said Noem while announcing the new tax cut in Rapid City, South Dakota, on Wednesday. 

“This permanent tax cut will put hundreds of dollars in the pockets of the average South Dakota family,” Noem said.  (Click to Continue Reading)

WaPo gives Sen. Patty Murray ‘Four Pinocchios’ for saying Republicans plan to ‘end’ Social Security, Medicare

By Joseph A. Wulfsohn

The Washington Post handed down four “Pinocchios” to Sen. Patty Murray, D-Wash., for her claim warning of the “end” Social Security and Medicare if Republicans take control of Congress.

Murray, who is fighting in a tightening reelection battle against GOP challenger Tiffany Smiley, tweeted on Sunday, “Republicans plan to end Social Security and Medicare if they take back the Senate.”

Glenn Kessler, the Post’s fact-checker, characterized Murray’s tweet as a “‘Medicare’ attack” to win over senior voters.

“Don’t worry, seniors: There is no such plan,” Kessler assured elderly readers. (Click to continue reading)

North Dakota man free after admitting he mowed down ‘Republican’ teen over politics, records show

By Stephanie Pagones

The North Dakota man who allegedly admitted to fatally striking a teenage pedestrian with his car because the pair had “a political argument” was released from jail on Tuesday after posting $50,000 bond, records show.

Shannon Brandt, 41, spent just days in a Stutsman County Jail on criminal charges related to the death of 18-year-old Cayler Ellingson before he posted his $50,000 and was released, according to county jail records. Brandt’s listed attorney could not be reached by phone and did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital’s email inquiry.

Brandt, a Glenfield resident, was arrested in the early morning hours of Sunday after he told the state first responders’ radio that “he struck the pedestrian because the pedestrian was threatening him,” according to a probable-cause affidavit provided to Fox News Digital on Wednesday morning.

“Brandt stated that the pedestrian called some people and Brandt was afraid they were coming to get him,” the document continues. “Brandt admitted to State Radio that he hit the pedestrian and that the pedestrian was part of a Republican extremist group.”

Shannon Brandt, 41, is charged in the vehicular death of a North Dakota teenage boy he claimed occurred after a political argument.   (Foster County Sheriff)

North Dakota Highway Patrol reported on Sunday that there was a “street dance” on Jones Street near Hohneck Street in McHenry when Brandt struck Ellingson and then fled the scene.

Ellingson was rushed to a local hospital with serious injuries, but could not be saved.  (Click to continue reading)

Testimony wraps in trial of former professional guardian accused of elderly abuse

By: Adam Walser

HILLSBOROUGH COUNTY, Fla. — On Thursday, the trial continued in the case of former professional guardian Rebecca Fierle, who was accused of contributing to the death of a man under her care.

Testimony wrapped up and both sides rested after the jury heard from more than a dozen total witnesses. Fierle did not take the stand in her own defense.

She is charged with felony, aggravated abuse of an elderly person, and neglect of an elderly person. Fierle was appointed by a judge to be Steven Stryker‘s guardian in 2018 after Stryker was baker acted and ended up in an Orlando hospital.

Investigators said Fierle allegedly ordered his feeding tube to be capped and requested a do-not-resuscitate (DNR) order against his wishes while he was a patient at Saint Joseph’s hospital in May 2019. The record showed that he choked to death five days later.  (Click to continue reading)

Martha’s Vineyard residents lament lack of resources, even as island is flush with cash and beds

Martha’s Vineyard, Mass. – Playground of the powerful Martha’s Vineyard lacked the resources to care for the 50 migrants who landed there unexpectedly on Wednesday, local residents told Fox News Digital this weekend.

But real estate data and Massachusetts state resources show otherwise: island towns are flush with cash and plenty of extra beds to help needy people.

Edgartown, for example, boasts $9.8 million in free cash — budget surplus — according to the Massachusetts Department of Revenue. It would have cost only $9.1 million to give all 50 migrants their own room for an entire year at Edgartown’s swanky $500-per-night Harbor View Hotel.  (Click to continue reading)

One Turn: Make the Best of It

by Carrie K. Hutchens

We only have one turn to live our lives here on earth. It’s something I’ve come to think a great deal about, especially when I am dwelling on all my regrets… my mistakes… and all my dreams that will never be because it is too late. And, yes – sometimes it is too late to make dreams come true.

I don’t know when life started slipping by me, but I think I was pretty young. I was always thinking “someday” I will do this or that. “Someday” I hope that I will have a chance to be or to have or to see. Yes, “someday.”

One of my dreams was to go to New York City. That’s never going to happen. I wouldn’t be able to enjoy with all the worry of violent crime that has been transpiring.

I definitely wanted to meet Whoopi Goldberg. That’s before I was stuck in a hospital waiting room with no control over the TV and saw her hatefulness and intolerant political stance on The View. Turns out she was nothing like the person I had imagined her to be. That was indeed a devastating moment.

Bruce Springsteen was another one that let me down. His attitude towards the non-radical liberal burst the bubble of the person I thought he was and gave him one less fan to claim.

Thank goodness that I never wanted to meet Stephen King, cause that man and couldn’t stand to be in the same room with each other more than a second. I know because he has popped up on my Twitter feed more than a few times and it wasn’t pretty. Did you know that he worried about Donald Trump not serving in the military, while not serving either? Well, if he did – I couldn’t find any record of it. Know what I call that? A hypocrite who should stick to writing fiction, rather than trying to create a fiction attitude about someone he disagrees with.

Speaking of Donald Trump…

I’d love to meet President Trump, but that is never going to happen either. Maybe someday he’ll send me a note saying “hi” but I’ll not hold my breath. He’s a busy man fighting to Make America Great Again despite all those that are trying to take him down so he can’t take part in such a wondrous movement that he inspired and worked/is working so hard to make happen.

James Woods is another that didn’t let me down. He used to follow me on Twitter and I actually got to tweet a bit with him. Twitter ended that following, as it did many others for many others.

On a bright note…

I said something to upset Cher. I didn’t know she was reading my tweets, until she jumped me. Well, I had enough, so I blocked her. How dare I. Numerous followers of Cher attacked me for daring to disrespect their queen. She, and they, cared that I – a nobody – blocked her? Okay.

(If you are wondering – yes, I blocked her followers, too.)

Yes, I regret that the New York City I dreamed of visiting no longer exists.

I regret that Whoopi and Bruce are not the people I thought them to be, therefore destroying one more dream. But there is more and it is closer to home.

A screenplay writer/producer/director was in town on personal matters and needed someone to type revisions on a script. I was lucky enough to get the job. And, while I typed – he read some of my work. He liked it. He offered me a job. I’d learn the art of screenplays, making movies and attempt to make his screenplays into novels.

I was excited.

My late husband said, “No.” He said that if I went, I went alone. He told me that he could get custody of the children because it would be a new and unproven job in a state I had no ties to. I believed him. I was young. I was stupid. However, I never got the chance to accept or decline the job offer, because it was made by a man that believed in family. Once he found out that my husband would not agree – the offer was rescinded. It was the last time in my life that I would ever have such a chance.

The rest of my life from then to now has been a series of “maybe someday”… somedays that never came and now never will.

I’ll never be the writer I wished to be. I’ve lost most of what I once had and the world has changed too much to care about what I have to say.

It isn’t just that, though that is reason enough, in my book, for a big pity party.

I’ve spent most of my life stuck in survival mode and effort, with all my dreams always shoved behind the stove, not just on the back burner. There have been a few exceptions. Writing for the Dakota Voice and American Clarion (thanks to Bob Ellis) are among them. I even had chance to briefly be a part of writing a few songs and seeing a singer/musician get his music out there. Then the bulb went out and back to all dreams on hold – this time forever.

I’ve wished I could go back and undo parts of my life and imagined how wondrous things could have been if only I could. But I can’t. Nobody can. We only get one turn, no matter how much we wish for an extra one or a redo. So, my advice is to live a good and unselfish life, but one that remembers you a bit, too. As I said, we only get one turn – make the best of yours. I wish I had.

Starving Patients to Death is Legal in Every State in America

Opinion   |   Bobby Schindler

On June 24th, 2022, the United States Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade, the legally deficient 1973 ruling that a woman had a “constitutional right” to kill her unborn child.

Much of the credit was given to President Donald Trump for choosing Supreme Court justices who properly interpreted our nation’s Constitution. The pro-life community that devoted their time and resources and resolved to upend the law decriminalizing abortion is also due a significant amount of credit. Now, the battle to protect the unborn shifts to the laws of each individual state.

While this monumental ruling will certainly protect countless unborn babies, there currently exists a thriving Roe vs Wade type law that has a similar goal to end the lives of the medically vulnerable, as Roe did on the unborn. This law redefines feeding tubes, which provide a patient’s food and hydration, from basic and ordinary care to medical treatment and artificial life support.

Essentially, the redefinition of feeding tubes went unnoticed and as a result, it is now legal in all 50 states to either deny or remove a patient’s feeding tube – even against the expressed wishes of the patients – directly causing the patient’s death by dehydration and starvation.

In his book, Culture of Death: The Assault on Medical Ethics in America, author and bioethicist, Wesley J. Smith writes that “defining ‘artificial nutrition’ as treatment instead of human care was a crucial step in the development of the culture of death.”

According to Smith, as far back as the early 1980’s, bioethicists like Daniel Callahan saw the feeding tube as a serious hurdle, openly stating that changing its classification from “basic care” to “medical treatment” would be “the only effective way to make certain that a large number of biologically tenacious patients actually die.”

Eventually, Callahan’s view became widely accepted. This included a 1986 opinion by the American Medical Association (AMA) that listed feeding tubes as medical treatment instead of a basic requirement for life, fundamentally changing the medical definition of receiving food and hydration by feeding tubes. This new meaning invites all kinds of scenarios that can end the lives of patients who either require feeding tubes permanently or temporarily until they can relearn how to eat and drink.

Take for example, the 2005 case of my sister Terri Schiavo, who needed a feeding tube after experiencing a brain injury and having difficulty swallowing. Her guardian and estranged husband, Michael Schiavo, incentivized by his adulterous affair and also monetarily by the close to a million dollars he would inherit upon Terri’s death, invented a story and subsequently lied to a judge, alleging Terri would rather die than live in in a disabled condition.

This revelation surfaced years after Terri’s unexplained brain injury when Michael conveniently remembered Terri’s desire to die just after she received a million dollar malpractice payout that Michael vowed would be used for Terri’s lifelong rehabilitation.

Nonetheless, the judge ruled in his favor and permitted the removal of Terri’s feeding tube, inhumanely starving and dehydrating her to death. A slow and horrific killing that took almost two weeks.

Indeed, Terri’s case alerted the public that feeding tubes can be removed from a family member – even when someone purposely lies and financially benefits from the inhumane and unjust death sentence. However, 17 years after Terri’s death, nothing has changed as dehydrating to death persons like Terri continues every single day.

Even more, this injustice is worsening because the bureaucratic killing apparatus deep-rooted in our healthcare system saves billions of dollars by rationing ongoing care, making it easy and desirable to kill. Not to mention that, unlike the zeal to protect the unborn, there is no urgency or serious effort to protect our medically vulnerable. Bear in mind, all of this was occurring prior to the medical bullying triggered by Covid-19.  (Continue Reading)

On July 4th, I celebrate my remarkable journey which is only possible in America

Two hundred forty six years ago today, the American experiment was born. In our birth certificate, the Declaration of Independence, our Founding Fathers spelled out the fundamental rights given to us all by our Creator. They envisioned a nation built on freedom and fairness.

In the centuries that followed we often failed, but more often succeeded, in our journey toward a “more perfect union.” The resilience embedded in the DNA of America is what has united generations of citizens—people of all backgrounds—to come together to make the founders’ vision a reality. 

This is a country that allowed me, the son of a single mom who raised her two Black sons in the South, to become a U.S. Senator representing the home of the Civil War. Where else on Earth is that possible?  (Continue Reading)

Stop the Lies: There was no Insurrection or Domestic Terrorist Attack by Trump Supporters

By Carrie K. Hutchens

I don’t approve of violence, and while I wish no one had entered the Capitol building on January 6th, it certainly wasn’t a domestic terrorist attack or an insurrection.  Anyone who suggests it was, is either uninformed, an indoctrinated puppet or a sleazy gaslighter that has something to gain from the lie and the continued attack on Trump and his supporters.  Count on it.

I’m quite tired of the Collins, McConnells and all the others in Congress who present themselves as oh so righteous, while being both blind and bullheaded.  Yes, I am giving some of them the benefit of the doubt, though I’m not sure they deserve it.  They’re in Congress, after all, so they must know more than any of us, right?  At least that is how some of them come across as thinking.

Trump did not ask ole Pence to void the electoral votes.  He asked him to delay the count, until thorough investigations could be carried out.  I heard that was a legit request and it is one that should have been honored, not for Trump, but for the voters.  Hear that Pence?  For the “legally registered voters.”

I, for one, don’t want to hear how there was no evidence of voter fraud.  Kind of difficult to gather evidence when no one is bothering to look for any or half-arse doing so, don’t you think?

If a bank employee called and said there was money stolen from the bank, would you likewise merely say there was no evidence?  No, you would expect an investigation would be carried out.  Funds would be compared to what funds were supposed to be there per documentation.  And once that was completed, an investigation would ensue to ascertain who had access and by what means it was possible for any of those people to readily remove the missing money.

By the way, embezzlement can often go on for years before being detected.  But you think in 24 to 48 hours, one can ascertain that, though there was voter fraud, it wasn’t enough to change the outcome of an election?

I have a bridge for sale, as they say.

There are many questionable things that occurred Election Day and night.  Why would anyone blow it off?  Would they do so if it weren’t for the fact that everything odd (suspicious) went against President Trump?

The oh so righteous should especially ask themselves that question.  Does their hatred of Trump blind them to the truth or the desire to seek it?

I think it does.

The problem with thinking, even subconsciously, that it’s okay for cheating to have occurred because it is only Trump – is that once it is done to one – it can be done to anyone and everyone.  It opens the gate.  Yes, it opens the gate to a world of broken rules, cheating, lying and “by any means necessary” behavior.  No one is safe under such a realm – not even the self-righteous Trump hating people in Congress.

I’ll be honest.

Every time someone says things such as, “Trump’s false claims” or “without evidence” – I blow my stack. 

Those people sure have lit a fire under me and not in a good way.  They are calling me a liar.  They are lying to me about me.  They are telling me that what I saw I did not see no matter that I did.    And, of course, they are doing this very thing to everyone else that saw inappropriate behavior and/or discrepancies. This is called “gaslighting” and it is not acceptable behavior under any circumstances – not even by the so-called righteous.

I can truthfully say that if I saw the very same things occurring to a candidate I was totally against – I would feel it as wrong as I do with this situation with Trump and the 2020 Election.  I don’t believe in lying or cheating, even about or towards people I can’t stand.

Call it wrongful behavior.  Call it a criminal act.  But don’t call what transpired on January 6th an insurrection or an act of domestic terror by Trump supporters.  It was neither.  It was merely, by Trump supporters anyways, an attempt to be heard and a rightful call for an investigation prior to confirming as true what was actually questionable.  We voters do, after all, deserve election results that are assured to be true and accurate.  That’s how it is supposed to work.  Did it?

Woke politics hijack my Gen Z classmates’ hero’s path

By Daniel Idfresne

Published January 01, 2022

Many today are concerned about the rising generation’s exposure to a cultural virus, that is being “woke”—and rightly so. But I’m one from that generation who has been inoculated against it. My Christian upbringing, my time in a public charter school, and my history teacher’s use of the Socratic method provided a foundation I needed to withstand it all.

Too many of my Gen Z peers aren’t on such solid ground, however.

‘WOKE’ NYC SCHOOL CURRICULUM PROMPTS DAD TO MOVE DAUGHTER TO FLORIDA

The nuclear family and American education are disintegrating—and traditional values are disappearing along with it. This leaves teenagers with no framework nor principles by which they can heroically live. It’s my generation’s void. In it, they fall victim to woke ideology and become bullies. Sadly, too many of my friends adopt fraudulent values to signal virtue, and in turn browbeat my classmates who don’t.

Consider the protests and riots summer of 2020. My peers denounced their “white privilege” on social media and shared provocative posts to prove it. But if white privilege is real, drive-by activism won’t fix anything. Social justice theater collapses under the burden of real oppression. 

When empty platitudes no longer sufficed, my woke classmates embraced more radical views. An open call for racial justice quickly became a disingenuous call to overthrow America’s Founding principles and institutions. Their ideas were not carefully thought out, but social media applauded them with coveted “likes.”  (Click to Continue Reading)

Mom gets standing ovation after calling for ‘mass exodus’ from public schools

By Sam Dorman

Florida mom Quisha King called for a “mass exodus” from the public school system, arguing that school systems left parents with no other choice for fighting left-wing ideas.

Her comments came during the annual Family Research Council’s Pray Vote Stand Summit during a Thursday panel on Fighting Indoctrination on a National Scale.”

“I really think at this point the only thing to do is have a mass exodus from the public school system – that’s it,” King said. In response, she received prolonged applause, and many in the audience stood to their feet at the Leesburg, Virginia, event.

King previously drew national attention for her speech opposing critical race theory (CRT) in June. She works with the group Moms for Liberty, which is one of many battling CRT and other ideas across the nation.

“With this FBI thing, it just made me realize – what else are we supposed to do?” King asked. “Standing up to these people doesn’t seem to matter. I mean, we have – all of us – we’ve been at these school board meetings, we’ve been voicing our opinions, we’re writing articles, we’re emailing teachers – we’re doing all that stuff. And they don’t care. I’m like the only thing left to do is to just peace out.”

She added that “it has to be us doing it together” in order to “really send the message that you do not have the right to indoctrinate our children.”

Her comments came amid an uproar over the Department of Justice’s announcement that the FBI would investigate potential violence at school board meetings. Attorney General Merrick Garland’s memo on the issue raised concerns as it appeared to be in response to a National School Boards Association (NSBA) letter suggesting that officials were encountering a form of “domestic terrorism.”

“While spirited debate about policy matters is protected under our Constitution, that protection does not extend to threats of violence or efforts to intimidate individuals based on their views,” Garland’s memo states.

Still, critics like Sen. Josh Hawley, R-Mo., have raised concerns about DOJ restricting free speech – pointing to language in NSBA’s letter that disparaged anti-CRT efforts.

Open Letter to Jessica Tarlov

Dear Jessica:

I am writing in response to your appearance on “The Five” in which parent rebellion against the schools and government was discussed. You said, in part:

 “JESSICA TARLOV, FOX NEWS CHANNEL CONTRIBUTOR: There’s so much though. So, Joe Biden thinks the Taliban is worse than Mrs. Montgomery, so just for the record there. We were showing footage split screen there of parents screaming at educators and going to these school board meetings or videos of parents outside of school getting up in the faces of these teachers.”

I’m not saying there’s a violation under the Patriot Act but this is not just like, hey, could you give me a callback, I’m a little concerned about what’s going on — ” (The Five’ on Biden pushing socialism on Americans – This is a rush transcript from “The Five,” October 5, 2021. This copy may not be in its final form and may be updated.)

Wait until the schools and/or government try to take over your child and they TELL YOU how you will raise your son or daughter. Wait until they teach that young one what they want, regardless of, and in spite of, your opinion. As a matter of fact, wait until your opinion isn’t allowed. Although you are more educated and knowledgeable than most of them, wait until you are helpless against the fascists.

Yes, wait until it is you that keep running into a wall, as you try to protect that child from a radical force of people that you find harmful to your child. Wait until no one listens. Wait until you can do nothing. Wait until they take away all your options to fight back. Wait until they make you helpless. Wait until you are deemed a domestic terrorist for simply disagreeing and saying so. Then remember the day that you didn’t condemn them when it was other parents fighting for their children. Wait until you are them.

Yes, wait until you are them and then let’s see how you respond. Let’s see what you say. Let’s see what you do. Let’s see if you regret not stepping in at the onset and be a part of returning education to a learning experience, rather than an indoctrination by power hungry radicals that think they know better than you and have a “right” to decide what is best for your child.

Wait or take another path. Step up now and help stop this wrongful madness. As someone once said, “Be a part of the solution – not the problem.”

Your move, new mother-to-be. Your move.

Sincerely,
Carrie K. Hutchens

Mark Levin: How many Anne Franks are in Afghanistan tonight?

‘Can you hear the screams of the Afghans, America?’

The Afghan people left behind are fighting to survive much like Jewish victims in Nazi Germany, “Life, Liberty & Levin” host Mark Levin compared Wednesday on “Hannity.”

“How many Anne Franks are there tonight in Afghanistan?” he asked. “How many Anne Franks are hiding in cellars all across the country today? I want to talk about the people left behind, not the 124,000 who’ve been evacuated to safety. I want to talk about the millions who now have had genocide unleashed upon them.”

Levin pointed out that the Afghans were living “mostly in peace” and safety before Joe Biden’s presidency with a “minimal American military footprint.”

Levin hit out against who he called “propagandists” in the administration including press secretaries Jen Psaki of the White House, Adm. John Kirby of the Pentagon, state department spokesman Ned Price as well as generals who he blasted for leaving American citizens in Afghanistan.

“No commander in chief has ever ordered any general to leave citizens behind,” he roared. “What about these children and these women? What about the Afghan allies – the men who fought next to use firefight after firefight?”  (Click to continue reading)

Media lead charge to smear Rockies fan they falsely accused of using racial slur toward Marlins outfielder

By Charles Creitz

Several media figures and others in the baseball establishment are being slammed for hastily and ultimately falsely accusing a Colorado Rockies fan of repeatedly yelling a racial slur at a Miami Marlins player who is Black, with some later making an about-face on the matter.

When the Marlins’ Lewis Brinson, 27, was at the plate in the ninth inning on Sunday, microphones at Coors Field in Denver picked up the fan repeatedly yelling something many critics immediately declared to be the n-word, ostensibly directed at the opposing team’s batter.

A review of the situation found that the fan, who has not been identified, was in fact shouting “Dinger!” at the Rockies’ purple triceratops mascot. The man was reportedly trying to get Dinger’s attention so that it could take a photograph with his grandchildren.

But many on social media circulated video of the incident assuming that the man was yelling a racial epithet.  (Click to continue reading how an innocent man was wrongly attacked)
