We are all aware of Alinsky’s Rules for Radicals. In it he lays the groundwork for communist community organizers to gradually infiltrate the basic societal structures of our nation and convert our country into first, a ‘soft tyranny’ and then, when socialized medicine, amnesty and gun control are complete, a full blown communist state. We are not going to let that happen. It’s time for all Americans to confront this attack on our liberty and fight back. We haven’t much time as they are well organized, determined and currently have the power bases of the White House, the Senate, MSM...

It took a tea party insurrection that disabled the federal government and wrecked the Republican brand, but after months of handwringing, establishment Republicans are preparing to attack ultra-conservative ideologues across red America. From Alabama to Alaska, the center-right, business-oriented wing of the Republican Party is gearing up for a series of skirmishes that it hopes can prevent the 2014 mid-term election from turning into another missed opportunity. But this will not be a coordinated operation. It will be messy, ugly, and prone to backfiring. And if the comeback succeeds, it will be in fits and starts, most likely culminating in...

Glenn Beck shared a story with viewers on Wednesday that he’s been keeping close to the vest since before the 2012 election, explaining that he’s been waiting for the right time to say what exactly happened, and what it means for the country. It all began, Beck said, in what he believes was late August when he was getting ready to do a number of events with FreedomWorks. “It’s about 4:00 in the afternoon and I get a call from the president of FreedomWorks, Matt Kibbe, and I can hear the distress in his voice,” Beck said. “[Kibbe said], ‘Glenn,...

Glenn Beck told his viewers tonight that in August of last year Matt Kibbe was fired from Freedom Works because of a RINO COUP in the organization. He explains below:

Glenn Beck on Tuesday revealed the name of a Republican senator who allegedly called supporters of FreedomWorks and the Senate Conservatives Fund traitors to the party: Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell. Beck said he was given the information by someone who is not on his “usual list of friends” and a guy who, if he gave you the name, you would not think “he’s on our side.” The alleged comments came in a private, off-the-record meeting of Republican Senators that reportedly went far beyond politics as usual. “This guy is just disgusted by what happened, and is one of those...

Glenn Beck told his audience on Monday that the following morning on his radio program, he will reveal the name of a Republican lawmaker who said anyone who stands with FreedomWorks or the Senate Conservatives Fund is a “traitor” to the Senate.

The only thing missing from the anti-Lindsey Graham rally was the senator himself. But there was a Graham cardboard cutout for people to get their picture taken with — and to direct their political anger. More than 14 months before the election, some Republicans are making it clear they are not happy with the state’s senior senator, calling him too easy to compromise with the Obama White House. And though their numbers might be small and their event Tuesday night high on theatrics, the dislike for Graham among the 100-plus people at the FreedomWorks town hall rally in North Charleston...

FreedomWorks, a national organization aligned with the tea party, took its second shot at Sen. John Cornyn, R-Texas, this summer as part of a digital advertisement campaign targeting several GOP senators. The Facebook spots link to a letter that notes “a number of Senators have joined Mike Lee’s efforts to defund ObamaCare.” The Utah Republican’s efforts are essentially a defacto threat to shut down the government if funding for the 2010 health care law is not eliminated. “Now some are getting cold feet,” FreedomWorks continued. “Senator John Cornyn – one of the original supporters – has bowed to the Republican...

In South Carolina, Republican Sen. Lindsey Graham has been attacked in television ads for his support of immigration reform. In Tennessee, GOP Sen. Lamar Alexander is ducking criticism from Tea Party groups that his overall voting record is too moderate. Kentucky’s Mitch McConnell, the Senate Republican leader, faces angry conservatives in his state for not joining an effort by some in his party to block the federal budget unless it defunds Obamacare. For these Republicans, the only uniting factor is that the criticism is coming from their own party. The reasons they are under attack vary from one group to...

According to author and Fox News contributor Deneen Borelli and her husband, Tom Borelli, black conservatives have been blacklisted from the NAACP's national conferences for years. When the Borellis, who are employees of the conservative group FreedomWorks, attempted to pay for booth space at this year's 104th National NAACP conference in Florida, they were told there was no room for them despite plenty of exhibit space remaining open. The NAACP website states that the mission of the organization is to, "ensure the political, educational, social, and economic equality of rights of all persons and to eliminate race-based discrimination." The objectives...

Deneen Borelli, Outreach Director Black Conservatives Ask the NAACP to Condemn Progressive Racism at the Orlando Annual Convention FreedomWorks July 12, 2013 FreedomWorks Outreach Director Deneen Borelli and Senior Fellow Rev. CL Bryant will attend the NAACP Annual Convention in Orlando on Sunday, July14th and Monday, July 15th before the keynote speeches to ask the NAACP to publicly denounce the racial attacks against black conservatives. Reverend CL Bryant commented, “As a former NAACP branch president in Garland, Texas, I was punished for my outspoken belief that as a Baptist preacher, my rights come from God, not the government. The...

WASHINGTON –Sen. John Cornyn has hired a prominent tea party organizer, Brendan Steinhauser, as his campaign manager. It’s a smart pick for Cornyn, who’ll seek his third term next year. As former director of campaigns at FreedomWorks, Steinhauser brings sterling tea party credentials. He organized 30 events for Ted Cruz’s insurgent Senate campaign last year. And he led grassroots efforts that helped elect other partiers, Sens. Marco Rubio of Florida, Mike Lee of Utah, and Pat Toomey of Pennsylvania.

Rafael Cruz, the father of Texas Sen. Ted Cruz, invigorated the crowd during tonight’s FreedomWorks Free the People event. Describing his own personal journey escaping Cuba and working hard to build a life for himself in the U.S., the elder Cruz noted comparisons that he believes exist between Fidel Castro’s governance and President Barack Obama’s executive actions. Upon rising to power, he said that Castro, like Obama, spoke about hope and change. While the message sounded good at the time, it didn’t take long for socialism to take root in his home country. And he paid the price. ... Video...

Just days after the Republican National Committee (RNC) rejected most proposed rules changes that would undo the power grab from last year’s convention, a number of grassroots activists stopped by to express their disappointment with party leaders and let them know that they would not give up the fight. Shortly after 10am, around 50 activists (pictured above) showed up at RNC headquarters in Washington, DC to present a representative from the party with a open letter to Chairman Reince Priebus that hit at the heart of grassroots’ frustration with the party. “As grassroots fiscally conservative activists from states across the...

Black Conservatives Commend NAACP for Reversing Position on Image Awards 3/8/2004 8:07:00 AM -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- To: National Desk Contact: David Almasi, 202-371-1400 ext. 106 or email: project21@nationalcenter.org WASHINGTON, March 8 /U.S. Newswire/ -- Members of the black conservative organization Project 21 today applauded the NAACP for "seeing the light" by determining that a morals clause may be warranted for future NAACP "Image Award" nominations. The goal of the NAACP's annual Image Awards is to honor "those who strive for the portrayal of positive images and meaningful opportunities for African-Americans." Project 21 played a leading role in bringing public attention to...

Swaping RealityWhen you think television has scraped the bottom of the barrel, something even more ridiculous comes along.I got an e-mail from my editor at Project 21 today. He had been contacted by someone with ABC television, concerning an upcoming reality television show, The Swap, currently scheduled to air Summer 2004. They are looking for "conservative black families" to participate in the show.The premise? Two families swap moms for ten days. The first five days, the moms adjust to and try to fit into their new families. The second five days, the new moms get to make any changes they...

Michael Jackson. Go ahead, crack a joke, sigh or shake your head. Michael's lifestyle and his current predicament inexorably lead to those reactions. There seem to be only two main schools of thought concerning the one-time "King of Pop": he's either guilty of molesting a young boy and ought to be tried, convicted and put in a cell deep under a prison or he's innocent. These groups also seem to be split into two other categories: black and other. A couple of white friends have asked me why this should be. I chalk it up to history and love. Our...

Black America has a growing problem that needs to be addressed. It is, in my opinion, the most persistent problem facing us as a race in this country. Despite what "our" media-appointed black leaders tell us, this problem is not racism, reparations, affirmative action, President Bush or the Confederate Battle Flag. It's attitude. Overall, we have terrible attitudes. If we want our situation to change, our attitudes will have to lead the way. Many of our so-called leaders would like us to believe that we as individuals have absolutely no control over our lives. They want us to think that...
