Trump supporters signal trouble for deep state

Targeting former President Donald Trump, targeting the face of the freedom fight for takedown and total destruction doesn't make the rest of the pro-America, America First fighters go away. It only energizes them. This is America, after all. And Americans love a good fight.

Good news! Biden can’t win reelection

America is technically in a recession -- and President Biden's response is to say, hey, man, come on, man, nothing to see here, go home. With shoulder-shrugging like that, it's no surprise Democrats are seeking another candidate to run in 2024. They know Biden can't win.

Biden sounds like a drug pusher

A heavily vaccinated-slash-boosted President Biden emerged from his COVID-19 test-positive isolation to advise Americans to wear face masks, get the COVID shot and boosters -- in other words, to do all the things he did but that failed to keep him from catching COVID.

Democrats lunge to legislatively limit SCOTUS conservatives

Democrats introduced a piece of legislation to limit the terms of U.S. Supreme Court justices, saying it's necessary in order to "restore legitimacy and independence" at the highest legal authority in the land. That's code for 'these conservatives are killing us!'

Tweedledee edges out Tweedledum in New Hampshire poll

The headline from The Hill was eye-catching: "Buttigieg edges out Biden among Democrats in New Hampshire poll." That's like saying Tweedledee edges out Tweedledum. Looking through the glass, what's the difference?

Fauci suggests locking down healthy would’ve made medical sense

President Biden's top medical wonk, Anthony Fauci, said in a recent interview that the initial response to the coronavirus should have been one of immediate lockdowns, immediate mass face masking and immediate "what have you." Here comes that flip-floppy "science" once again.

Climate alarmism and the coming clampdowns on liberty

The radical environmentalists of the world have found the man of their dreams in Joe Biden. He's the holder of the most powerful office in the world, he's mentally compromised, and he's weak. What more could the pushers of fear and mongers of manufactured mayhem need?

Ted Cruz: ‘Revival is coming!’

Sen. Ted Cruz, speaking at a Turning Point USA event in Florida, poked fun of the feckless White House leaders, then expressed dismay at their fecklessness, then said their fecklessness was good because it was driving the nation toward a massive revival in spirit and conservatives.

Democrats want Constitution ‘completely rewritten’

A new survey from Rasmussen Reports and the Heartland Institute found that 57% of Democrats believe the Constitution is "rooted in racism," another 64% think it's "sexist," and 49% -- statistically half -- feel it should be "mostly or completely rewritten." It doesn't get much clearer than that.

Ding, dong, Anthony Fauci to retire (reportedly)

After two-plus COVID-19 years of pretending he was above the politics while pushing a far left political agenda that bent America to globalist will, Anthony Fauci is retiring at the end of Joe Biden's presidential term. Reportedly. Reportedly, hopefully and thankfully.

Donald Trump for president in 2024

America needs Donald Trump to run again for president, if only to reset the Great Reset clock the globalists have been able to tick forward under the feckless administration of Joe Biden.

Violence is the left’s new race card

Khiara Bridges is a professor who told Sen. Josh Hawley he was guilty of opening doors to violence against transgenders because he said he didn't think men could get pregnant. The "v-card," the violence card -- it's the new "r-card," the new racism card, for the Democrats.

America’s coming banana republic storm

Fully 50% of likely voters think it "somewhat likely" that "widespread cheating" will impact the coming midterms, and of that, 24% say it's "very likely," a Rasmussen Report found. Welcome to America's new banana republic reality.

Pete Buttigieg is ineffective and should be fired

Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg said he's wrapped 10 investigations into late and canceled flights and has "launched another ten or so that we're going to pursue." That's great. Now only another, umm, 10,000 or so and surfaces will really start to be scratched.

Joe Biden unleashes DOJ, HHS to shove abortion down states’ throats

SCOTUS ruled that abortion must be returned to the states and their legislatures to decide. And Joe Biden's response is to lock and load the Justice Department and Health and Human Services and sic them on the states until they comply with the pro-abortion crowd's radical demands.

(AP Photo/Markus Schreiber, File)

Bill Gates: Let them eat bugs!

Why would a former Microsoft executive who has spent the last two years chiding Americans to be more like China when it comes to coronavirus protections and forced COVID-19 shots want to own prime farmland at all? Good question. Could it be to build a fake meat empire?
