** [link removed] CHAMPION MESSAGE ([link removed])
------------------------------------------------------------

"What we have today is thought control rather than the premise of thoughtful debate. It's ideological fascism. You will think like us... and if you don't we will squash you. We will crush you. We will silence you."

- Dr. Everett Piper, "No Safe Spaces" Documentary ([link removed])

** Meet Dr. Erica Komisar, Who Knows the Power of Being There ([link removed])
------------------------------------------------------------
A Freudian psychoanalyst who lives and works on New York’s Upper West Side, Dr. Komisar wrote the book: “Being There: Why Prioritizing Motherhood in the First Three Years Matters.” Komisar became the not always popular prophet ([link removed]) of staying home or prioritizing motherhood in the early years of a child’s life. Komisar began thinking about her book 13 years ago, but she knew she could not write it just then. She was raising children. What Komisar urges is that women make informed choices.

** Senator Elizabeth Warren's "Medicare for All" Plan ([link removed])
------------------------------------------------------------
Senator Warren claims the middle class won't pay extra for Medicare for All--this is not true ([link removed]) . Warren is proposing the most massive government program ([link removed]) in history and yet according to Chris Jacobs, author of "The Case Against Single Payer," she refuses to come clean about the cost to the middle class. In reality, according to Ron Brownstein in The Atlantic, the gap between what she says it will cost and what it will really cost is in the trillions of dollars, and the middle class will be on the hook to fill that gap.


** HOW TO TALK ABOUT
DONOR PRIVACY ([link removed])
------------------------------------------------------------
* The state of California wants to force non-profits to turn over their donor lists.
* California's bulk collection of donor identities is an unconstitutional intrusion into charitable giving.
* The ability to make anonymous donations encourages broad-based civic participation.

* Forced disclosure of donor names to state governments undermines donors' reliance on anonymity and, in turn, threatens the ability of charitable organizations to rely on those donors.
* Collection of charitable donor information puts donors to unpopular causes at risk.
* In the era of internet and social media, the disclosure of the names and addresses of people who donate to unpopular causes creates an even greater risk.

** What's Behind the Left's Fixation With Climate Change? ([link removed])
------------------------------------------------------------
Demographer Joel Kotkin's City Journal article, headlined “Climate Stalinism,” explains that the climate change agenda isn’t just about saving the planet. "The left is convinced their role is that of planetary saviors, radical greens are increasingly intolerant of dissent or any questioning of their policy agenda."

** A Taco Truck Learned That Caving to Anti-ICE Outcry Is a Losing Strategy ([link removed])
------------------------------------------------------------
Time and time again, businesses that choose to take sides in this highly-polarized environment might appease a few, but upset a host of other customers on the other side of the issue. By caving to a few angry anti-ICE, pro-illegal immigration supporters on Twitter, a taco truck in Buffalo, NY chose a side rather than acknowledging that they should serve all customers regardless of the work they do. In the end, the taco truck lost out.

** Key Indicators From a Terrific Jobs Report ([link removed])
------------------------------------------------------------
By now, you’ve probably seen the headline numbers: Non-farm payroll jobs increased by 128,000—despite the (recently concluded) General Motors strike and the loss of 20,000 temporary Census jobs—crushing estimates of 75,000 or 85,000. The unemployment rate among blacks fell to yet another record low, and the total number of people employed rose to yet another record high. Year-over-year wage growth (i.e. growth in average hourly earnings) came in at 3 percent. Yes, the overall unemployment rate ticked up from 3.5 percent to 3.6 percent, but it did so for positive reasons.
