Press Release: The Pitfalls of Identity Politics

“I find it interesting when Joe Biden addresses our military and harps on the subject of diversity being our greatest strength. Hmm, tell that to the 332nd Fighter Squadron, the famed Tuskegee Airmen, an all-black fighter unit. Their fame was not in being black, it was in never losing a bomber during their escort duties. The ‘Red Tails’ were, after all, the most requested unit by bomber units who wanted to come home. It had nothing to do with skin color and everything to do with skill and merit,” states ACRU Executive Director Allen West in his latest OPED for TownHall.com.

“Last week, White House mouthpiece, Karine Jean-Pierre, stated that college students, who went into a contractual agreement for a loan to attend college, a decision they made, are owed $468 billion in college debt relief by the American taxpayer," states ACRU Executive Director Allen West in his latest OPED for TownHall.com. West continues, “It appears that nothing will deter this Biden administration from overreaching its expressed constitutional powers when it comes to enacting its ideological agenda. In this case, the agenda is all about the political economics of dependency.”

Dems Worried About SCOTUS Ethics Should Probe Lefty Justices

Senate Judiciary Committee Democrats will convene a business meeting Thursday to consider their Supreme Court “ethics” bill.

When Monica Zoltanski was elected mayor of Sandy, Utah, from a crowded field of eight candidates by only 21 votes in November 2021, the city had to hold a recount — not just because of the close vote, but also because of voter confusion.
