Library Follies

What happened to America's public libraries? They universally used to be safe, non-ideological places where we could do research and find a good book. Librarians were helpful, cheerful and kept their politics to themselves. Some libraries and librarians are still like that today. But an increasing number of them have, like so much in America, been "weaponized" in the Left's war on faith, family and freedom.

For example, what explains the sudden embrace by public librarians of inviting "drag queens," men garishly dressed as women, to conduct reading hours of questionable books for young children? Do such readings have some unknown benefit for children? Or are they intended to normalize the abnormal sexual proclivities of the men, while lowering the inhibitions of children?

Kirk Cameron has gone to libraries that have hosted drag queen story hours and asked for equal time to read his children's book series, which is based on biblical values. Initially, the left-wing libraries rejected his requests. So, he threatened to sue. Now, they are grudgingly opening their doors.

Part of the problem is the American Library Association (ALA). Each year it has drifted further and further left. How far left? The Montana State Library Commission recently voted to sever all ties with the ALA because it said the ALA is now "led by a Marxist." The Montana State Library Commission wasn't exaggerating.

Emily Drabinski was elected president of the ALA last year. Following her election, she tweeted, "I just cannot believe that a Marxist lesbian who believes that collective power . . . can be wielded for a better world is president-elect of ALA."

She sees libraries as central elements in the class struggle against the "maldistribution of wealth," and has vowed that her public voice will be "on labor's side" and "socialist in tone."

Is your state library association part of the ALA? Are your state and local tax dollars supporting Marxist indoctrination at your local library?

Kirk Cameron has a wonderful idea for the date of August 5th that he is calling, "See You at the Library." On the website, bravebooks.us, Kirk outlines the simple steps you can take to request the use of the local library for you to sponsor a reading hour to teach children faith, hope and love.

Harris vs. Trump: What Each Candidate Wants Most for America

We are now in the closing argument phase of the presidential campaign. Candidates are presenting their most compelling cases for why still undecided voters should choose them. Donald Trump is outlining what his second term would look like. He is pushing • tax cuts for working and middle-class Americans, • a secure border, • ending inflation, • energy independence, and • protecting religious liberty and free speech.

Inspiration That Could Save America

There is always an October surprise in every election, and we may have just experienced it. More on that later. The presidential campaigns are deploying resources and crafting messages to clarify the choice before us. Former President Donald Trump spent half an hour as a McDonald’s employee, effectively turning it into “Donald’s” as he served Pennsylvania families burgers and fries. At a rally in the same state, steel workers gathered around him and gave him a hard hat, insisting that Trump saved the steel industry. Then Trump showed his support of the American people by attending an NFL game. The stadium erupted in chants of “USA! USA!”

To Be Salt and Light, We Must Be Involved in America's Elections

The polls are shifting again. The race is still a toss-up, but virtually every poll shows former President Donald Trump with the momentum. Vice President Kamala Harris’s campaign has adopted a new tone. It started with a joy, joy, joy vibe. Now, the emphasis is fear, fear, fear. Harris labels Trump “dangerous.” Her surrogates compare him to Hitler. After two serious assassination attempts on Trump, this rhetoric could inspire more violence. Please pray for the safety of Trump and Harris.
