  • "Don't Get Stuck"

    Trisston Wright Burrows|Nov 1, 2024

    One of the most forgotten sins of the Bible is looking back on your past. Did you know that it is actually a sin? Jesus says that He doesn't want you looking back anymore. He tells us the story of Lot, his wife, and two daughter. God was about to destroy Sodom and Gomorrah and God sent two angels of the Lord to rescue them. God only gave them one instruction. Don't look back. That was the only instruction. The life as they knew it was burning down. The Bible says that they came out but Lot’s w...

  • Déjà vu all over again

    Dr. Bill Chitwood|Nov 1, 2024

    November 8, 2024–Have you felt the 2016 vibe these last three days? No, those flashbacks are not your PTSD acting up. The Left are collectively melting down harder than they did in 2016, and it’s even more hilarious now than it was back then. There are a number of things that are virtually identical, of course—the celebrities threatening to leave the country, for instance—but the Left turned it up to eleven and twisted off the knob this time around. Eight years ago we laughed as the special...

  • An Election To Remember-Live Writing The Election

    Dr. Bill Chitwood|Nov 1, 2024

    November 6, 2024–It's 12:37 AM on election night, and Pennsylvania has just been called for President Trump. We're waiting for him to speak, and I'm flipping through channels watching what the different networks are saying about the election. MSNBC is still trying to hold out hope for a Harris victory, and it could still break that way, but...they also have a graphic up on their secondary YouTube channel showing President Trump winning the popular vote 65 million to 60 million. There aren't a...

  • This Is How The World Ends

    Dr. Bill Chitwood|Nov 1, 2024

    November 11, 2024–I have seen how the world ends. Or, at least the part where sentient AI either enslaves or slaughters us. Saturday I was giving myself a well-deserved break from politics and scrolling through YouTube for something fun to watch when I happened across a video posted by Brainfrog about a week ago. The title caught my eye: “I told SKYRIM AI they’re in a Simulation. Then Offered an Escape!” Briefly, the YouTuber took an NPC (non-player character) from Skyrim (a fantasy game) t...

  • We Must Destroy FEMA To Save It

    Dr. Bill Chitwood|Nov 1, 2024

    November 11, 2024–“How will President Trump fix FEMA?” is the question people are asking right now. It’s the wrong question. The question they should be asking is “why not eliminate FEMA and be done?” Why should we bother fixing something that’s so obviously corrupt, incompetent and contrary to its stated purpose? Why not add FEMA to the kill list with the Department of Education, and about a dozen others I can think of right off the top of my head. Yes, that list gets longer when my gout flares...

  • 4B, MATGA and the Lethal Ladies of the Left

    Dr. Bill Chitwood|Nov 1, 2024

    November 12, 2024–Just when I think the Loonies on the Left can’t get any more unhinged, they go and surprise me. We’ve seen a plethora of liberals—mostly women, but a few putative males—posting their mental breakdowns on social media for the last week. It’s been completely predictable, and the “déjà vu all over again vibe” has been the same toxic stew of rage, angst, disbelief and tearful virtual-signaling we saw in 2016, turned up to 11 and the knob twisted off. I’d never heard of the 4B mov...

  • Mike Johnson Standing Tall: The Speaker Who Proved the Critics Wrong

    Perry O Hooper Jr|Nov 1, 2024

    November 13, 2024 - Let me state the obvious: Mike Johnson has done a phenomenal job as Speaker of the House. Anyone who says otherwise is either gravely misinformed or refuses to see the truth. When he took the gavel, the media and the Democrat leadership were lined up, ready to tear him down before he even had a chance to breathe. They painted him as inexperienced, a placeholder who could never lead in these turbulent times. But, boy, were they wrong. Mike Johnson stepped into the breach...

  • SENATOR GERALD ALLEN: ALABAMA FIRE COLLEGE TRAINS OUR STATE'S BEST

    Senator Gerald Allen|Nov 1, 2024

    November 14, 2024 - First responders are heroes. They stand ready to answer the call in the face of danger to serve and protect our communities. Often, they are the first to arrive to the scene of an emergency, an accident, or other disaster. When we are facing our worst, they are always their best, and they serve an important role as the backbone of emergency services. In Alabama, I have no doubt that we have the best first responders in America. A big reason why first responders in Alabama...

  • The Trump Triumph

    Steve Flowers|Nov 1, 2024

    Our 45th President, Donald J. Trump, was elected as our 47th President on November 5. He not only won, he won overwhelmingly. Under the Electoral College system, our President is elected not by popular vote, but by a system where each state casts the same number of votes as they have Representatives and Senators in Congress. We, in Alabama, have seven Congressmen and two Senators. Therefore, we have nine electoral votes. National voters and the media knew in this 2024 Presidential election, ther...

  • John Thune: The Leader America Needs in the Senate

    Perry O Hooper Jr|Nov 1, 2024

    We are witnessing a significant shift in the leadership of the United States Senate, and I can confidently say that we are in great hands. John Thune, who took over as Senate Majority Leader, was the right man to lead our conservative charge at the right time. I also want to take a moment to honor both his remarkable journey and the monumental contributions of his predecessor, Mitch McConnell. First, let us remember how John Thune burst onto the national scene with that stunning upset of Tom...

  • The Swamp's Day of Reckoning

    Perry O Hooper Jr|Nov 1, 2024

    You reap what you sow, and nowhere is that more apparent than in Donald Trump's new Washington, D.C. For years, the swamp has done everything in its power to tear down President Trump, his allies, and his supporters. From endless investigations to biased media attacks, they've used every trick in the book to keep their stranglehold on power. Now, they're reaping the whirlwind they themselves have stirred. This is precisely how Donald Trump is making his picks to run the people's federal governme...

  • "I Heard The Bells" Now On Pure Flix

    Luisa Reyes|Nov 1, 2024

    Based on actual historical events, "I Heard The Bells" is an excellent movie about Henry Wadsworth Longfellow's inspiration to write the poem that would become the Classic Christmas Carol, "I Heard The Bells On Christmas Day". An independent production, the very well done feature film was released in movie theaters across the USA in December of 2022, making it the first ever theatrical release of a feature film production for the "Sight & Sound" ministries. A ministry that focuses on faith...

  • Will Biden's Legacy Be WW III?

    Dr. Bill Chitwood|Nov 1, 2024

    November 18, 2024–It’s going to be a downer of an inauguration if DC is a glow-in-the-dark parking lot or radioactive swamp. That’s not likely, but with Joe Biden’s handlers pushing hard for World War III? It’s a definite possibility. Sunday, we found out that “President Biden” had authorized Ukraine to use US-made missiles to strike targets deep within Russia. This is a “major policy shift” (read: complete 180 degree turn) and would allow Zelensky’s losing military to further poke the Ru...

  • Complicit, compromised, or clueless?

    Ken McFeeters|Nov 1, 2024

    I love the Alabama Gazette as it's been the "Voice of Reason" for the last 25 years and the only publication, in Alabama, that has been telling anything even close to the truth lately. After experiencing the last four years I believe that just about everyone realizes that the only reason a person would actually watch the national news/media is to study how psychological manipulation works on the general public. Elected officials, especially local ones, are supposed to be a bulwark against this...

  • Senator Tommy Tuberville - Paving the Way for Pete Hegseth

    Perry O Hooper Jr|Nov 1, 2024

    November 19, 2024 - When Senator Tommy Tuberville was elected, the Biden-Woke agenda was implemented in all government facets. He targeted the Department of Defense, which did the most harm. Coach Tuberville comes from a family with strong military ties, including his father, whose stories about his service in World War II played a significant role in shaping Tuberville's values during his formative years. As a football coach, he often emphasized the importance of sacrifice and discipline,...

  • Biden, Hitler, Scorched Earth, Impeachment and WWIII

    Dr. Bill Chitwood|Nov 1, 2024

    Biden, Hitler, Scorched Earth, Impeachment and WWIII November 20, 2024–The Biden Regime is trying to do to us what Hitler wanted done to Germany in 1945. It was officially called the “Decree Concerning Demolitions in the Reich Territory” and was signed by Adolf Hitler on March 19th, 1945. It said, in part: “It is a mistake to think that transport and communication facilities, industrial establishments and supply depots, which have not been destroyed, or have only been temporarily put out of...

  • Putin, Gaetz, Swamp Rats and a WW3 Update

    Dr. Bill Chitwood|Nov 1, 2024

    November 22, 2024–You know it’s going to be a bad day when you wake up, turn on the Keurig, and while the first cup of the day (Death Wish dark roast) is brewing you open up the iPad to see… Russia launches ICBM strike against Ukraine. On the bright side, it was only loaded with conventional warheads (or maybe even dummy rounds), so it just made a mess, maybe started a few small fires. It was only an intermediate range ballistic missile (IRBM), not an intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM...

  • "Gladiator II" - A Movie Review

    Luisa Reyes|Nov 1, 2024

    November 22, 2024 - Gore galore is the overriding aspect of "Gladiator II" which is now showing in movie theaters nationwide. A long-awaited sequel to Ridley Scott's "Gladiator" which was released twenty-four years ago, "Gladiator II" makes heavy use of themes typically featured in male-oriented movies such as revenge, filling the little-known late father's shoes, and honor through fighting. While those topics can sound interesting in and of themselves, in "Gladiator II" these themes are...

  • HEADS EXPLODE

    Robert Tate|Nov 1, 2024

    Trump won. By now, everybody knows about it but at the same time, many refuse to accept. It has been interesting to see the left and how they cannot deal with it. To be honest, back in 2020, many on the right lost their minds as well but the left’s approach from celebrities, colleges and universities, and all the way to the media has been beautiful. What has become plainly obvious is that our society has largely become a bunch of babies who when they do not get their way, they react through t...

  • Greg Reed: A Tribute to Senate District 5

    Senator Greg Reed|Nov 1, 2024

    Northwest Alabama is a very special place. Nestled in the lowest foothills of the Appalachian Mountains, it is known for coal mining and includes so many beautiful wonders and remarkable people. I call it home, and I have for almost my entire life. I was born in Jasper and grew up in Cordova in south Walker County with my mother, Patsy, my father, Rufus, and my sister, Angie. My father worked for the power company, and my sister and I attended Walker County public schools. Upon graduation from...

  • Alabama vs. Auburn Game

    Steve Flowers|Nov 1, 2024

    The only sport that Alabamians enjoy more than Alabama politics is college football. We especially love the Alabama vs. Auburn football game – one of the fiercest of college football rivalries. It is the game of the year. It is a state civil war that divides friends and families. It is bragging rights for the entire year. The loser must live with his boasting next-door neighbor for 364 days. You must choose a side even if you despise college football and could not care less who wins. N...

  • Pam Bondi Will Clean Up the Department of Justice Once and for All

    Perry O Hooper Jr|Nov 1, 2024

    Matt Gaetz did the honorable thing by withdrawing his name from consideration for Attorney General, recognizing that his presence could be a distraction to the entire confirmation process; By stepping aside, Gaetz has shown true leadership, clearing the way for someone who is perfectly suited for the job-Pam Bondi. His decision underscores the gravity of the challenges facing the Department of Justice and the necessity of having a person in place to tackle them head-on. President Trump has made...

  • Meet the New Swamp, Same as the Old Swamp

    Dr. Bill Chitwood|Nov 1, 2024

    November 25, 2024–Surely you didn’t think it’d be as easy as winning one election, did you? News Flash: winning the Presidential election was just the first, albeit critically necessary, step in the fight to restore the Republic. The Resistance began organizing itself the day after Election Day, when it became apparent that President Trump's victory was too big to steal. Props where they’re due: Lara Trump and Co. at the RNC did a stellar job of getting their legal ducks in a row before electio...

  • The Controlled Minority

    Ken McFeeters|Nov 1, 2024

    The Alabama Gazette is truly the only media outlet in Alabama that is even remotely telling the truth. Nobody else would print what I'm about to say. The "Controlled Minority" are to blame. Republican voters in Alabama like to think of themselves as the "silent majority" but they are not, not even close! They are the "controlled minority". If it makes you feel any better, the Democrat's voters are the "controlled minorities" in the states and cities they control. It transcends party...

  • Happy Thanksgiving America's Brightest Days Are Ahead

    Perry O Hooper Jr|Nov 1, 2024

    This Thanksgiving, let us pause and give thanks to Almighty God for His abundant blessings, His mercy, and His enduring faithfulness. As we gather with family and friends around our tables, it's easy to be discouraged by the challenges our nation faces. Many voices in our world today would have us believe that America's best days are behind us-that division, moral decay, and uncertainty define our future. But I say to you: America's best days are not behind us. They are ahead of us-because of...
