Target’s Dangerous Policy Leads to More Victims, Another Arrest
By Tim Wildmon   |   08.23.17
Target’s dangerous policy of allowing men into women’s dressing rooms has claimed another innocent victim of sexual voyeurism. According to NBC10 News, a 36-year-old man secretly filmed women trying on clothes in the dressing room of a New Jersey Target...
The Media’s Glaring Double Standards on Violence and Hate
By Dr. Michael L. Brown   |   08.21.17
When protestors pulled down a Confederate statue in Durham, North Carolina, NPR reported that they were chanting, "No KKK, No Fascist USA." Actually, they were chanting, "No cops, no KKK, no fascist USA!" Why did NPR omit "No cops"?
Hollywood Profanity Wears Thin with Viewers, but So Does Discernment
By Micah Clark   |   08.12.17
There is a new Harris Poll that finds that audiences are growing tired of profanity-filled movies coming from Hollywood.  However the study also seems to reveal a lack of discernment as well in my opinion.  Perhaps the pervasiveness of profanity...
To “Trans” Cultists, What IS Maleness or Femaleness?
By Laurie Higgins   |   08.11.17
Earlier this week, I mentioned that I had submitted a commentary on the “trans” ideology to the Chicago Tribune on July 31 that was rejected. I noted this only because several days after I submitted this commentary, Trib reporter Kim Janssen wrote an article about my article that urges Christians to exit public schools in part because public schools promote the irrational, incoherent, and destructive “trans” ideology. Here is that rejected commentary...
Is Fox News 32 Chicago Fair and Balanced?
By Laurie Higgins   |   07.27.17
Yesterday, Larry Yellen of Fox News 32 Chicago sought a comment from IFI for a segment he was doing on Trump’s "transgender" tweet. Here are the comments that were included in Yellen’s segment from opponents of Trump’s ban on gender-dysphoric men and women serving in the military:
Conservative Gets Under Thin Skins of Petulant Progressive News Anchors
By Laurie Higgins   |   07.20.17
Next time Leftist journalists take umbrage over President Trump’s criticism of the mainstream press, pretending they think his criticism of bias is an attack on the foundation of our republic, or when a “progressive” talking head goes all middle-school snotty on a guest for his or her criticism of press bias, remember their responses to these comments from Obama and his water-carriers who routinely accused Fox News of being a fake news network and shill for the GOP...
Chicago’s “Hays Code” for Theater Criticism
By Laurie Higgins   |   06.26.17
“Progressive” extremists, who are growing in number, volume, and oppressiveness, are managing to divide even “progressives.” They’re dividing homosexuals from gender-pretenders (i.e., L’s and G’s from T’s) by claiming that anyone who cares about the genitalia of their sexual partners is “transphobic.”
Legal Battle Rages Over the Future of VidAngel and Movie Filtering
By Andrew Willis   |   06.07.17
Imagine if families could enjoy a movie together without the fear of being bombarded with nudity, crude language, or excessive gore. Up until recently, families could do just that. That is, until Disney and its Hollywood cohorts wielded their dark...
Texas Bill to Protect Religious Freedom vs. Chicago Tribune Columnist
By Laurie Higgins   |   06.06.17
Always tolerant, liberty-loving, diversity-desiring “progressives” are fuming about a Texas bill that would prevent child welfare services providers, foster families, and adoptive families from being penalized for their faith. While Leftists claim the intent of the bill, titled “The Freedom to Serve Children Act,” is to discriminate against non-Christians, homosexuals, and unmarried couples in child placement, it’s really about stopping discrimination against Christians for exercising their First Amendment rights.
Why is it so hard to understand?

Remember learning about the Pavlovian experiment where every time he rung a bell, he gave a dog a treat, resulting in the dog connecting the sound of bell with food? (If you don’t know what I’m talking about, just watch...
Why the Mainstream Media Must Stop Citing ‘Anti-Hate’-Crusader Southern Poverty Law Center
05.20.17
Last week, my organization, an immigration-control advocate, publicly released a 2016 disciplinary opinion from the Obama-era U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) officially reprimanding a Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) attorney for unprofessional and frivolous behavior in immigration court proceedings.
The True Handmaid’s Tale: The Story of Ba’albeck
By Laurie Higgins   |   04.29.17
The series The Handmaid’s Tale based on the novel of the same title by Margaret Atwood just premiered on Hulu and is generating a flurry of excitement from ever-excitable “progressives.” It depicts a dystopian world in which Christians have established a totalitarian theocracy where fertile women are conscripted into producing children for infertile members of society’s elites. Paranoid “progressives” are calling this series "timely."
What is ‘Antifa’? And Why Is The Media So Reluctant To Expose It?
04.28.17
Are all Trump supporters violent white supremacists? Clearly not. But you might not know that based on some of the reporting flying around this week. The mainstream media are oversimplifying what happened when riots broke out in Berkeley, California, during a rally for free speech put on by Trump backers. In doing so, the reporting implies that those supporting the president were prepared for violence while those in opposition are simply opposing “fascism.”
FOX News Pundits Slurp up Kool-Aid, Regurgitate Nonsense
By Laurie Higgins   |   04.27.17
Those with ears to hear fear it’s coming. They fear the impending death of FOX News as a voice for conservatism. They see FOX gasping for air in its miasmic studio spaces, but they fear too little life-sustaining air remains. Retaining conservative views on defense and fiscal policy cannot sustain either the health of a political party or the soundness of political punditry.
You Know It When You See It
By   |   04.07.17
It’s dangerous to paint with a broad brush. I think we do that too often when we, as conservatives, go after the press for media bias. Many times when I see conservative leaders decry media bias, I ask “was that...
