This week, Gov. Dennis Daugaard of South Dakota vetoed a bill that would have required students in public schools to use bathrooms and locker rooms based on their biological sex at birth. South Dakota would have been the first state to pass such legislation, pushing back on guidance from the Obama administration requiring schools to allow transgender students access to...

Operation Gideon: Cruz’s South Carolina salvation Ted Cruz’s presidential campaign is betting that an old-time religious revival will deliver him victory in South Carolina’s GOP primary on Saturday.

DALLAS, November 10, 2015 (LifeSiteNews) – Dallas city council voted unanimously on Tuesday to approve an ordinance allowing transgender people to use the “facilities” of the opposite sex.

If there is one thing that I thought I’d learned over the past few weeks, it’s that history has a “side,” and I don’t happen to be on it.
