Thomas Homan, former ICE chief, dings Democrats for border deceits
Thomas Homan, President Donald Trump's pick for "border czar," weighed in on the Democrats' first presidential debate with harsh words that accused the left of selling a deceitful message about the cages used to house children at the border to open America to all crossers -- legal, illegal, whatever. And he's right. Published June 27, 2019
Democrats’ glaring blind spot
The Democratic Party's own internal polling shows that likely voters are sick and tired of the impeach-at-all-costs talk and would rather hear what their legislative leaders are doing on, say, health care. The fact that Democrats need a poll shows just how blinded by partisanship and self-interest their party has become. Published June 27, 2019
Democrats, debating, don’t disappoint: They’re still loons
Democrats and their ideas haven't changed much over the months of campaigning. Kudos for the consistency. Democrats, after all these months, still show as the party of loons. Published June 26, 2019
Elizabeth Warren: Guns are ‘national health emergency’
Sen. Elizabeth Warren, answering a question about gun control, said her solution was to treat the matter like a "national health emergency." Published June 26, 2019
Beto O’Rourke, Democrats break into Spanish during debate
Beto O'Rourke, the guy who once had an abundance of media love and Democrat adoration, pretty much put a stop to his presidential aspirations during the opening moments of his party's first televised debate when he suddenly, inexplicably, broke into Spanish while answering a question from NBC host Savannah Guthrie. Even Cory Booker, down two podium to O'Rourke's right, was like, what the freak, man? Published June 26, 2019
‘Gender X’ options gain steam in states
Hawaii is poised to become the ninth state to offer "Gender X" as an option on driver license applications. And the chaos continues to spread. Published June 26, 2019
China’s chilling pre-crime prison indoctrination system
BBC News, equipped with cameras, went inside one of China's village reeducation camps -- and emerged not just with footage that would make a freedom-loving American gasp and gag, but also with prescient proof of why runaway Big Tech is bad for the Constitution. It's called jail first, ask questions later. Published June 25, 2019
Holocaust Museum’s subtle slap at Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez
The United States Holocaust Museum issued a statement making clear that comparisons of Nazi concentration camps with other matters of historical record or modern-day news are inappropriate. And though museum officials didn't name Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, they might as well have. Published June 25, 2019
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s missed opportunity to shine
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez had an opportunity win some hearts and minds and political points, all the while overturning the perception she has a problem with facts and history and Jews -- and she turned her socialist nose high into the air and said thanks, but no thanks. Published June 25, 2019
Jack Keane, retired general, salutes Donald Trump’s ‘strategic’ Iran offense
Retired military Gen. Jack Keane said on national television that President Donald Trump is to be commended for his past few days of foreign policy regarding Iran -- specifically, for heading up "the first administration in 39 years to be on the strategic offensive with the Iranians." That's quite a feat. Published June 24, 2019
Joe Scarborough’s ludicrous attempt to school ‘lying’ Mike Pence on Christianity
MSNBC host Joe Scarborough ripped into Mike Pence during a recent televised rant, calling out the vice president as a liar, a fake Christian and a guy who simply sits idly by and smiles as little kids get tortured. There's just too much to unwind there to get it all in one sentence. But let's start with "L" for Ludicrous. Published June 24, 2019
America’s great divide: ‘Peace Cross’ versus Satanic Temple
Two headlines of major interest rocked national news at very nearly the same time this week -- the first, from CNN, "Supreme Court rules 'peace cross' in Maryland can remain," and the second, from the Associated Press, "Alaska government meeting opens with 'Hail Satan' prayer." The battle lines just don't get clearer than that. Published June 22, 2019
Elizabeth Warren sprinkles some Disney magic: Yes, let’s legalize sex for money
Sen. Elizabeth Warren, who's been gaining in polls for the Democratic ticket to the White House, has just announced her latest political pandering -- er, policy view -- and it's one goes like this: Prostitution should perhaps be legal. It's Disney time, girls. Let the magic unfold. Published June 20, 2019
Joe Biden’s silly ‘James Bond-style’ gun control fantasy
Joe Biden has a dream. He wants "James Bond-style" smart gun controls to protect and save America from all kinds of crime. Well, that's just great. The Democrats' best hope for the presidency -- according to polls, anyway -- wants to use fictional characters exalted on Hollywood's big screens to hone our nation's Second Amendment. Published June 20, 2019
Democrats’ wild-eyed rhetoric will be their election downfall
Democrats and members of the left have been taking their mouths on some wild rides lately, calling out President Donald Trump as Hitler, characterizing his border control as concentration campy and such. And if they think they're winning the hearts and minds -- and votes -- of the American people with this rhetoric, they should think again. Published June 20, 2019
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s legislative days coming to end: Poll
If polls mean anything -- and generally, they don't, except as glimpses in time, but this one's too happy to ignore -- then ding, dong, socialist Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez's legislative days may soon be dead. Ice cream cones for everybody. Make that, water bottles. Published June 19, 2019
Trump’s ‘personal pastor’ Paula White hits at ‘demonic networks,’ goes bold in ‘name of Jesus’
Paula White, dubbed in 2016 as Donald Trump's "personal pastor," kicked off the president's reelection campaign with an opening prayer that referenced the "demonic networks" that have aligned to destroy this White House. She wasn't just talking about CNN. LOL. But the key takeaway from her prayer was this: White said "Jesus." Published June 19, 2019
Climate change’s newest alarmism: It’ll eat your flesh
Five people in the last two years have been admitted to the same New Jersey hospital for treatment of the same flesh-eating bacterial infection, Vibrio vulnificus, tied to the same Delaware Bay -- and now scientists say it's maybe, or maybe not, but very possibly maybe, definitely likely maybe, due to climate change. Really? Published June 18, 2019
Flag-burning bans are anti-American
Flag burning is today's equivalent of the Sedition Act. We cannot let the emotions of patriotism blind us to the duties of being a patriot. Published June 18, 2019
Harvard’s takedown of a little kid
Harvard, in a move that's supposed to be seen as predicated on principle, told Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School shooting survivor Kyle Kashuv, 18, that sorry, due to your use of the N-word when you were 16, your admissions' ticket has been yanked. Hmm. Monkey see, monkey do. Monkey thinks Harvard's full of poo. Published June 17, 2019
