Anthony Fauci and his faux science sow more seeds of fear

Dr. Anthony Fauci said that even those who've been vaccinated should not gather indoors, or eat indoors, or remove their masks -- or basically, in essence, do anything that involves being around others. This guy will have Americans staying home, living in fear, forever -- if we let him.

Gun-makers face extinction under Joe Biden

If President Biden has his way, gun manufacturers in the nation will soon enough go extinct. And remember: Without a Second Amendment, there's nothing, in the end, to secure the God-given rights of individuals.

Matt Gaetz matter flags hypocrisies of Democrats who sexualize youth

The age of consent for sexual intercourse in 34 states, plus the District of Columbia, is 16 years old; in six states, 17 years old; and in 11 states, 18 years old. So why do Democrats try so hard to sexualize the nation's youth at every turn? That in itself seems just this side of criminal.

United Airlines says it will train 5,000 pilots at its own academy in this decade, and it hopes that half of them will be women or people of color. United said Tuesday, April 6, 2021, it is now taking applications for the academy in Arizona, including from people who have no flying experience. (AP Photo/Jeff Chiu, File)

United Airlines pushes equity button too far

United Airlines' officials announced that its pilot training program over the next decade will focus on diversity, and at least half of its planned 5,000 new-hire pilots will be women and minorities. They hope, that is. Great. What if they suck at flying, though?

When highways are racist

President Biden's DOT shut down a highway project in Houston, saying the road construction was a classic case of racial injustice. At the same time, feds demanded contractors tied to the job get rid of all their black-ink pens, saying any color but green sent a message of racial injustice.

Oligarchy is coming, and America is in the crosshairs

The left, the coronavirus-loving left, has successfully taken the coronavirus and used it to great political advantage, shoving into private business all the clampdowns and shutdowns they can't do the constitutional way -- which is exactly why the left is so coronavirus-loving.

Michael Flynn is right: Americans must get ‘back to church’

Retired Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn, the guy the leftists love to hate, turned the tables on his accusers, called them out as communists, and then listed two things Americans need to do to secure the country's liberties: Restore the culture, and "get people back to church." How right he is.

Israel’s troubling ‘Green Pass’ post-coronavirus system

Israel is almost completely opened for business. But to participate in the post-coronavirus bustle, you need a Green Pass, a government-sanctioned document that says the carrier has been vaccinated. And that's troubling, to say the least.

Mockingbird media need their wings clipped

The CIA was busted in the 1970s for using America's news organizations as their propaganda and intelligence arms -- in some cases, paying, in other cases, forcing, reporters to do their secret, semi-subversive bidding. It was called Operation Mockingbird. Maybe it's still around.

‘Satan Shoes’ a sign of America’s sickened soul

Rapper Lil Nas X launched a brand of athletic wear called "Satan Shoes" with an upside-down Christian cross, bronze pentagrams, a Bible reference to Luke 10:18 -- about the evil one's lightning-quick fall from Heaven -- and a drop of human blood. What a stark picture of the moral decaying of America.

In this Tuesday, Nov. 18, 2020, file photo, children play at a camp of asylum seekers stuck at America's doorstep, in Matamoros, Mexico. Increasing numbers of parents and children are crossing the border, driven by violence and poverty in Central America and growing desperation in migrant camps in Mexico. U.S. Customs and Border Protection said Monday, Dec. 14, 2020 that it made 4,592 apprehensions of unaccompanied immigrant children in November, more than six times the figure in April.

Joe Biden has turned border into big Area 51-like secret

White House press secretary Jen Psaki said the Biden administration is "absolutely committed" to allowing journalists to tour the Border Patrol facilities to see the conditions for housing children. But why the delay? The fact that reporters are prevented at all is a red flag.

Bill Gates is not America’s coronavirus god

Bill Gates, Microsoft founder-turned-vaccine-developer, just came out and predicted that the world, weary as it is from the coronavirus, will see a return to complete normalcy by 2022. The proper response to that prediction, at least for Americans, is: Who the blank is Bill Gates to say?

Face masks, move over; there’s a new stupid in town: Cloth pig snouts

Americans are supposed to walk around with cloth-stitched snouts on their faces? To steal from the surgeon general: "Seriously, people." Any business -- any restaurant -- that puts up a sign saying "no nose mask, no entry" is a business and restaurant that deserves immediate boycott.

Joe Biden should ban assault people

President Biden responded to the Boulder, Colorado, shootings by calling on Congress to pass a ban on assault weapons. Whatever that means. Aren't all guns to some extent capable of assaulting? It's the people who are firing those weapons we really need to stop, yes?

March 25, 2021
In this Oct. 2, 2018, file photo, semi-automatic rifles fill a wall at a gun shop in Lynnwood, Wash. Mass shootings in Georgia and Colorado in March 2021, that left several people dead, have reignited calls from gun control advocates for tighter restrictions on buying firearms and ammunition. But with Democrats in control of the federal government, gun rights advocates have been persuading Republican-run state legislatures to go the other way, making it easier to obtain and carry guns.

Democrats and their ‘double standards’ on guns

Republican Sen. John Kennedy blasted Democrats for having a "double standard" on guns that goes like this: "If a bad guy shoots a cop, it's the gun's problem; if a cop shoots a bad guy, it's the cop's fault," he said. Great point. The "double standard" goes even deeper, though.

Donald Trump’s brilliant America First social media move

Donald Trump could run for president of the United States for a second term. And who knows, maybe he will. But the better, more beneficial, even brilliant move is the one he's making -- to blow up social media with a new platform.

Anthony Fauci, gag, to be memorialized in kids’ book

Anthony Fauci is going to be featured in a new children's book from Simon & Schuster called, "Dr. Fauci: How a Boy from Brooklyn Became America's Doctor." Gag. A better title? "Anthony Fauci: How a Boy Went From Brooklyn to Bust, in One Deception-Filled COVID-19 Year."
