[…]

Emmy Griffin ~ It’s a delusional rewrite of history for which our children are now having to pay. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is now patting itself on the back for its excellent call to mask students in grades K-12. The CDC specifically capitalized on a study that used the state of […]
By Jarrett Stepman ~ Saying two plus two equals four may now be problematic.
