Put The US Government Back In The School Curriculun

People have heard and written about how, IMO, one of the biggest problems with our government at almost every level is the curse of partisanship. Small towns, for the most part, don’t have this problem because the elected officials are neighbors and friends who ran for a seat on their local government and care about where they live…

You Have the Power

People have heard and written about how, IMO, one of the biggest problems with our government at almost every level is the curse of partisanship.

We’ve Had Enough Professional Politicians

The elections are, for the most part, over and it is now time for our ‘elected representatives’ to get to work for US, the American citizens. Unfortunately, there are far too many of these ‘elected representatives’ who don’t seem to understand exactly what their job is.

Contrary to what far too many people think, we are a Representative Republic, not a Democracy. When the Constitution was written and ratified it included an amendment, the 10th Amendment, which states that the federal government only has the powers delegated to it by the Constitution, and that any other powers are reserved to the states or to the people…

Liberals, Your Flights Out of the Country Are Fueled Up And Ready For Takeoff

It’s Wednesday morning and I am flipping between FOX News and MSNBC watching the after action reports on the election.

The folks at MSNBC are talking a very interesting line. Last night they were talking the Party line over and over again. But this morning they were, to some extent, eating their young. To listen to them it was obvious they were abandoning the (National Socialist) Democrat Party and running to suck up to the mid to moderate portion of the Party by criticizing those that had their hand in the back of the Harris puppet making her say all the (and I’m calling it what is was here) crap she was spouting. The (NS)DP actually thought they controlled the electorate and they would fall into line like good little Socialists….

America Survived, Trump Is Liberated – Make the Most of it.

It is 1:40 am and I cut the TV back on. All I can say is when they have their backs against the wall Americans always eventually always get it right. The greatest political come back ever, maga bucks spent by the radical left., a weaponized judicial system, attempted assassination. voter fraud , political fraud and much more. TRUMP never gave up. The left has already starred talking about it was the bias against women, it was the black men etc. No it was because the voters came out in massive numbers and that our constitutional republic worked. OUR FOUNDERS DESERVE A PAT ON THE BACK…

2024 is Orwell’s 1984

Propaganda is alive and well in the (National Socialist) Democrat Party apparatus. It’s “1984”, just 40 years late.

When the head puppet (aka the President) appeared to go off script and accuse roughly half the country, primarily voters, specifically Republican/Conservative voters of being “garbage” he was called out on it very quickly. The WH press office quickly altered the official written transcript by adding an apostrophe to an official government record in order to cover their true opinion of voters who refuse to fall into the Party line…

A Fiery Defense of Bill Goebel

Please allow me, Dori Goebel, to make some points in response to Mr. Jon Firebaugh’s letter to the editor on October 24th.

First: Bill Goebel was asked by BJ Barnes to allow his name to be raised as an alternative to Chris Meadows as chair of the Guilford County Republican Party. Firebaugh and others stood with Bill and myself to declare their support for Bill. They even met at my home to plan the strategy to call all the party committee members and assist in what Bill would say as he talked about why he agreed to BJ’s request to put his name out. All of you knew that Chris is a preening, frat boy, trust fund baby that felt entitled to the President spot. Now, I am beyond thankful that God closed that door – we would not want to be in the position to have to support the disgusting, disgraceful Republican Nominee for Governor – Chris has no problem standing with that man…

Why This Man Should Not Be Chair Of The Guilford County Republican Party

Last year myself and others put forward and supported Bill Goebel as a candidate for Chairman of the Guilford County Republican Party. As the real party of democracy, there was an actual election and Chris Meadows was elected chairman in a three-way race. Goebel touted his friendship with Chief Justice Paul Newby, his role as a regional representative of the Boy Scouts, and his attaining the status of Eagle Scout as some of his qualifications.  I was also a boy scout, a trained scout leader, and additionally took Scouting’s “Wood Badge” training, the pinnacle of scout leadership training….

Put The Adults In Charge

According to news reports, Governor Roy “I Can’t Cope” Cooper has ordered the needed volunteers who have been working to assist their Brother and Sister Tar Heels in WNC to stand down, don’t fly, get out of the way, we got this…10+ days after sitting on his hands while people suffered, people DIED, and Sleepy Joe and Kamala-la-la-ding dong were busy on the beach and at fundraisers with their (National Socialist) Democrat Party handlers….

A Simple Truth: Dollars Reflect Priorities – Vote Yes On The Sales Tax

Guilford, we have a problem. I’m in my 13th week as President of Guilford Education Alliance and something I’ve long suspected is afoot. I am a product of Guilford County Schools, but I’ve also been exposed to what’s happening in public education outside of our county and state. After graduating high school, I left… and then came back several years later. This makes me a Boomerang, thanks to Action Greensboro….

Help Police Catch My Brother’s Killer

I am Robin Freedman, the sister of Mark Freedman. On election night, November 3rd, 2020, my brother was tragically murdered while leaving his restaurant, Mark’s on Dolly Madison. Our hearts were shattered beyond repair. Mark was not only a wonderful brother but a true friend to many and a deeply committed member of this community. For over 40 years, he lived in Greensboro, running three restaurants and helping shape the city’s food culture. His creations didn’t just nourish locals—they were enjoyed by well-known visitors alike. Beyond his culinary contributions, Mark was compassionate, often giving his time to feed the city’s homeless and volunteering with local nonprofits….

Reason #346 To Not Vote Trump

This is a letter to the editor from Rhino Times reader Christian Rice

Monday morning after North Carolina was still fighting to recover from the extreme amount of damage in our beautiful Appalachian Mountain communities, Trump sends a social media message that ends with “…but don’t like the reports that I’m getting about the Federal Government, and the Democratic Governor of the State (North Carolina) going out of their way to not help  people of Republican areas….”  Only a POS would make up such a bold lie in order to politicize a natural disaster such as NC is facing for his political advantage….

State’s Voter ID Law Is Vacuous, Like Professional Politicians

So based on the listing of permitted “eligible voters”, the State of NC has a voter ID law but you can still vote if you don’t have one.

Folks, what does that sound like to you? Our “elected representatives”, the people WE choose to represent US, to work to ensure we have a strong, safe way of life, these “professional politicians”, both D & R, have once again managed to do the famous Politician Two-Step and make themselves look like they really care about We the People, when in fact it’s more about the “who’s going to take care of ME” mob…

Why Kamala Harris is “Flip-Flopping”

Nonbiased media has criticized Kamala Harris for changing policy positions.  Curiously, most policy changes mirror Donald Trump’s.  But why?…

First, she can.  She was appointed.  She didn’t run in primaries this cycle.  Generally, most primary candidates position themselves to the extreme.  GOP candidates try to be more conservative than their opponents.  Democrat candidates try to be more liberal than their opponents.  She is counting on us to forget.  Media and voters must remember Harris’s claimed policy positions from the primaries four years ago…

A Curious Case Of Crowd Size

A Letter to the Editor By Rhino Times Reader Alan Burke

Former President Trump receives heavy criticism for rally-size media coverage.  Democrats/liberals view this as another example of Trump’s “narcissism.”  Republicans/conservatives are more mixed.  Some think it isn’t legitimate.  Others believe it is a distraction from more important issues.

It’s worth examining the “why” of the issue.  Why is the media fawning over Harris while refusing to cover Trump rally sizes?…

Beware of Candidates Who Just Smile And Wave

A Letter To The Editor From Rhino Times Reader Lynn Andrew

An interesting campaign technique has taken hold in our country over the last several years.  I call it the “Do Nothing, Say Nothing” method.  Perhaps the idea started with the Penguins in the movie Madagascar with their “smile and wave boys”.  This method was used successfully by Joe Biden in 2020.  Others are utilizing the technique, which is subtle, but I write to warn Americans.  Beware of the candidate who will not engage with other candidates or with the media in any meaningful way.  If someone goes out of their way to be evasive during the sales cycle, what do you think you will get after the sale is closed…

A Call To Action Over Greensboro’s Homelessness Challenge

A Letter to the Editor Sent In by Rhino Times Reader Donna

(This is by Donna, written in the third person)

Donna, once a productive member of society, now faces the harsh reality of potential homelessness. Formerly a legal secretary and executive administrative assistant, Donna’s life took a drastic turn when health issues led her to file for disability. Her subsequent divorce left her financially destitute, with her husband squandering their resources and causing their house to go into foreclosure….

Hold School Officials Responsible

So let me get this straight…the Guilford County school system, the system that is responsible for the education of our children, the system responsible for assisting children with getting ready for life, the system that demands millions of Guilford County taxpayer dollars, can’t (in HOW many months?) work out the system for transporting children to and from school? I mean it’s not like this is a new concept or idea…

No Fan Of Harris’ VP Pick

The Walz fiasco is, to say the least, a situation that could have been avoided by the Queen Kalama controllers with a simple background check and a little insight. Instead, they forged ahead with a person that not only lied about a major portion of his service record, but also lied about his rank upon retirement….

Paper Ballots Don’t Crash

City Workers Should Admit Their Mistakes

A Letter to the Editor by Rhino Reader Susan Wells Vaughan
City workers or the city should take responsibility when their digging ends up damaging a resident’s fence, causing their dog to escape (since they didn’t bother to inform the resident of the gaping hole in the back fence their digging equipment caused when a water main broke behind the fence).  They left, without a word and I let out my dog as I always do, not knowing the back fence was torn up, and the…

Politicians Are Our Employees

A core member of the (National Socialist) Democrat Party, AOC, has initiated the procedures to impeach not one, but two members of the Supreme Court. For those who don’t keep count, IF this were to happen, the (NS)DP…I mean Doddering Uncle Joe, would be the one to nominate replacements. And IF that were to happen it would result in a 5-4 liberal majority. (And if THAT were to happen we’d be blued, screwed, and tattooed.)…

Trump Knows

Trump claims to have no knowledge of Project 2025.  No surprise he is yet again lying.  How do we know? 

1)Trump has many ties to the Heritage Foundation (authors of Project 2025). He was a keynote speaker at their 2022 conference where he announced the work the foundation did (Project 2025) would be crucial to his policy goals. Are we supposed to believe he didn’t know what he was saying in 2022?  Nope, Trump is lying…

Questions On Homosexuality

People being born gay is central to LGTB ideology. The problem is that a large portion of homosexuals didn’t “realize they were born gay” until late adulthood.  To cover this, we have been told that society (the man) convinced them that they were heterosexual.  We are also told that this discontinuity causes such severe emotional pain that it should be considered physical assault….

Unprecedented Warfare

The Left launches unprecedented legal warfare against a former President and popular champion of the American people.

They cause the United States of America to be mocked worldwide as a de facto banana republic as they attempt to imprison their chief political opponent….

Being Rewarded For Breaking The Law

One, if not the biggest item in this campaign is the illegal aliens streaming across our borders. There is very little, if any, action being taken by this administration to control it, and we are seeing the results. American citizens, some being children, are being attacked and in too many cases killed, by illegals. Laws are being broken and then selectively ignored by government officials, and in some cases result in American citizens being injured or worse yet, killed. Add to that how cities are giving these illegals basically everything American citizens have to work hard for and then expecting those same citizens to pay for it by raising taxes and cutting important services like fire and police. A veteran is ignored while an illegal is showered with gifts. I defy anyone to defend this (National Socialist) Democrat Party agenda…

The Eternal Battle Between The People And The State

Every democracy invariably devolves into a bifurcation of Left vs. Right. That’s because of the unending battle for power between the government and the governed, between the state and the people.

The power balance has historically been one-sided, with the state exercising almost all power and the people very little. But as feudalism and serfdom slowly gave way to nascent republics and liberty, one nation in particular rose up by explicitly espousing the radical notion that the people were sovereign, not the state….

What Can You Do Now?

Last’s weeks’ court decision produced a chorus of “What Can I Do About This?” among many of those I know.  In response, I wanted to share some tangible actions that are readily available in this situation.

Attend local GOP meetings and events – Guilford.nc.gop
Join one of the many county GOP clubs
Volunteer at the local GOP office
Volunteer for a Candidate…

“Lawfare” Is Already Spreading

“Lawfare” Is Already Spreading

“Lawfare” has already been unleashed on common citizens.

Trump recently lost a criminal trial.  The chief witness admitted to embezzlement.  Even biased journalists questioned the “hush money case.”

Conservative pundits fear this will encourage similar abuse against common citizens. It already has.

Roy Carroll: Why I’m Selling the Rhino Times

A Tale Of Two Civil Rights Museum Policies

When one talks about racism and the International Civil Rights Center & Museum in Greensboro, one should keep the following Associated Press articles in mind.

The articles involve a failed and a successful tour of the ICRCM by two well-known politicians. The failed attempt resulted from a denied appointment; the successful attempt was an unscheduled, walk-in off the street visit…

Gaza Situation – Living in A Bizzare World

I was just listening to the news and a comment was made about the current situation in Gaza.

The animals responsible for the current situation (Hamas) have been backed into a corner and are on the verge of being made irrelevant when all of a sudden doddering Uncle Joe shows his true colors by ordering the withholding…

Letter To The Editor About Washing Machine Advice

“Customer Service” and American know-how do not exist anymore. 

After many long years of faithful service, our Frigidaire refrigerator finally pooped out.  Not quite dead, but too late to save economically.  Fortunately, we have a friendly back-up in the basement, so we are doing our steps every day.  So after researching ourselves to frustration, we learned a few things….
