Keep Nashville’s Hands Off Party Nominations: HB 855 Tramples on Freedom of Association
Tennessee House Bill 855 (and its companion SB 799) is a prime example of a political “solution” in search of a problem. This bill would force every partisan election in our state – even down to local county offices like school board or county commission – to use state-run primary elections for selecting party nominees, […]
Tennesseans Must Defend Their Right to Self-Defense
The right of the citizen to his own self defense is fundamental to the American system and the Tennessean way of life. It is so fundamental, so accepted as part of the conservative credo, that it may come as a surprise to citizens that the Tennessee state Constitution fails to maintain this right in two […]
The effort to ban water fluoridation has been defeated by lobbyists, for now.
Unfortunately, House Bill 897 has been watered down to little, or virtually no effect. The bill would have aligned Tennessee with the Trump administration’s plan under the direction of new HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., to restrict the process of artificially fluoridating municipal water supplies. And that move has gained traction in several states, […]
Some of your elected officials are playing politics with your liberty.
For over a year, we engaged heavily in the debate of what Governor Bill Lee called, education freedom. Of course, this is a freedom which is ultimately subsidized by your tax dollars for those who might not be able to afford what they call freedom. During that debate, proponents of the Governor’s voucher program, like […]
Governor Bill Lee seeks to kill conservative legislation this year.
The fact that Governor Bill Lee is a RINO should not be news to any Tennessean that has been paying attention. Over the years as we have fought against vaccine mandates and for things like medical freedom and election integrity, the Governor has used his office to directly intervene in the legislative process by what […]
Fake Outrage in Williamson County Engineered by Jack Johnson and His Goons.
As March 4th approaches and last-minute efforts heat up in an effort to win the hearts and minds of Republican voters, it is ever more critical that everyone take a step back to see the smoke screen that has been laid out in front of you. In 2022, I challenged Williamson County’s incumbent state senator, […]
How the Tennessee General Assembly Sold Out Parents and Betrayed Conservatives: The Truth Behind the Voucher Bill’s Passage
Tennessee conservatives were betrayed. There’s no other way to put it. The passage of the school voucher bill wasn’t about helping families or giving parents more educational options—it was about political gamesmanship, special interest money, and backroom deals that reek of corruption. For those who still believe the Tennessee General Assembly operates with integrity, the […]
An Open Letter to the Members of the Tennessee House of Representatives Concerning the Upcoming Extraordinary Session
Honorable Members of the House of Representatives, As our state faces a manufactured crisis in the form of an extraordinary session called by Governor Lee, I write to you with grave concern about both the substance and procedure of what lies ahead. The timing and nature of this special session represent not just questionable governance […]
Backroom Deals Are No Substitute for Real Solutions
As a lifelong Tennessee conservative who’s watched generations of my family graduate from our local public schools, I need to speak some plain truth about Governor Lee’s rushed voucher push. Something doesn’t add up, and it ain’t just the math. In most rural areas across Tennessee, we don’t have a single private school. Not one. […]
When promises disappear, the voucher mirage will cost us all.
As Tennessee looks ahead to the 114th General Assembly, speculation is swirling that Governor Bill Lee might call a special session to address school choice, his hallmark initiative. While no special session has been officially announced, it’s clear that school choice will take center stage in the Governor’s legislative agenda for the upcoming session. This […]
