Tamboli’s Pizza and Pasta is a popular restaurant in Memphis, Tennessee. The other day four young National Guard troops showed up hoping to get a slice or two. Instead, they were shown the door. The staff at Tamboli’s ordered the troops to leave. Eyewitnesses report that other diners cheered as the young men were publicly shamed and kicked out of the restaurant. The owner posted a message on social media explaining that he does not allow National Guard troops to eat his food. Tamboli’s says they do not support the Memphis Safe Task Force or President Trump’s efforts to stop violent crime in the nation’s most dangerous city. I’ve posted the phone number of the restaurant on my website – if you’d like to reach out personally – ToddStarnes.com.

Social media is filled with memorial and tributes just about every time a lawmaker dies. And more often than not – the pundit crowd begins their posts with a caveat: “I did not agree with Senator so and so, but…” or “We disagreed on everything and he was a sorry so-and-so, but...” If you have to qualify your tribute or memorial – it is not a tribute. It's an example of bad upbringing. Senator Lindsey Graham died suddenly over the weekend. And I noticed that a good many folks on both sides of the aisle were offering backhanded condolences. Senator Graham was a good and decent man. He took care of his family. He fought for the unborn. He stood up for religious liberty. He was a friend to our president. And he will be missed. And as Grandma Starnes used to say – if you can’t say something nice – it’s just best to hush up.

A group of prominent black activists are calling on California to teach preschoolers how to speak "Black English." The activists say they don't want their children talking like white people. They say cultural linguistics make it appropriate for black children to "axe" questions and to use words like "finna do something" or "how you be?" Sounds like they want to create a modern-day Tower of Babel. Be sure to click here to get a copy of my new book, "The Golden Age: How Trump Saved America."
