Washington state has enacted one of the most dangerous assaults on religious freedom in America.

Socialism is the most radical, dangerous, destructive idea in the history of human civilization. I really do believe that, and it’s the core reason Donald Kendal and I founded StoppingSocialism.com in 2018. But, unfortunately, not everyone agrees with us, and most are not willing to take the time to read […]

The greatest threat facing the United States today doesn’t come from China, Iran, or even Russia; it’s the growing number of Americans who believe Karl Marx’s socialism provides the best strategy for making our communities safer, healthier, and more prosperous. But the most significant danger posed by socialism isn’t that […]
Earlier in May, Glenn Beck and the team at The Blaze asked me to travel to their studios in Dallas, Texas to participate in an absolutely remarkable socialism TV special. (See video below for free.) Although I played a very small role in the presentation (and thus deserve virtually no […]

Over the past decade, many of the largest corporations in the United States have adopted overtly political causes, including positions on controversial social issues. In most cases, these corporate policies have favored left-wing ideological positions. For example, in 2021 , massive companies such as American Airlines, Dell, and AT&T openly […]
Environmental, social, and governance (ESG) metrics are a popular kind of social credit scoring, one that poses a significant threat to individual liberty and free-market economies, both in America and abroad.[1] ESG is regularly used by corporations and investors as a tool to impose values and environmental policies on other […]

Under the leadership of President Joe Biden, the White House and the Federal Reserve have started to lay the groundwork for a programmable, trackable, easily manipulated digital currency. It might sound like something from a dystopian science-fiction novel, but it’s all too real, and it could soon change life in […]
The list included in this Policy Brief shows the election victories and losses for a selection of socialist and far-left progressive candidates running for office during the 2022 midterm election.

Environmental, social, and governance (ESG) metrics are a kind of social credit system designed to coerce businesses—and, by extension, individuals and all of society—to transform their practices. Through a carrot-and-stick approach, investors and banks (and soon governments) use ESG to push businesses to change how they function, regardless of what […]

Many pundits and politicians on the Left claim voter ID laws are "racist" and stop honest Americans from voting lawfully. That's why the United States MUST pass H.R. 1, they claim. The truth tells a very different story, however. Writer/research fellow Justin Haskins explains in this episode of “Stopping Socialism TV.”
The Great Reset movement poses a significant threat to individual liberty, and, unfortunately, it seems like there are Great Reset developments occurring nearly every week.
President Joe Biden released his budget for the new fiscal year last week, and while many words could be used to describe its far-left policy proposals, perhaps the most important is “reckless.” The price tag for Biden’s budget is a whopping $6 trillion, and it includes absolutely massive increases in […]
In June 2020, elites from around the world gathered to announce the launch of a plan to “reset” the entire global economy, a proposal they ominously named the “Great Reset.” Among the many world leaders and powerful institutions that pledged their support for the Great Reset at the June meeting […]

Before Joe Biden became the presidential pick for the Democratic Party in the 2020 election, many of his opponents weighed in on whether they think the Electoral College should be replaced with a national popular vote in future presidential contests. Here is a small sample of some of their responses: […]
Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden has spent the better part of the past month Skyping across America—because, you know, it’s much too dangerous for Joe to actually leave his basement—telling everyone who will listen that he pinky swears that a Biden-Harris administration would not “ban” fracking. It’s all a “lie,” […]

The United States is at an important crossroads. Democrats, at the urging of the party’s left-wing base, insist that America should adopt a European-style single-payer health care system—or, at the very least, a “public option” that would undoubtedly lead to single-payer health care. Republicans argue a government-funded universal health care […]
