White House cartoon-in-chief, Kamala Harris, wages war on hate: We hate hate!

Israel's got their Hamas. Ignorant college kids have their anti-semitic pro-Palestinian mantras. Rashida Tlaib has her anti-Jewish ethnic cleansing causes. But for this White House, the war's on hate. And Biden's set his trusty-wusty VP Kamala Harris as commander-in-chief of this war. What could possibly go wrong.

Mike Johnson vilified for the very faith that will save America

Jen Psaki, on "Inside with Jen Psaki" on MSNBC, tore apart new House Speaker Mike Johnson as a radical, religiously fanatical nut job bent on bowing Americans to a brutal Bible-thumping reign. All the guy did, mind you, was pray and express his Christian faith.

Bold & Blunt: Fired for refusing the COVID shot

This is America. This is the land of the free, supposedly. So why were thousands of American citizens fired for refusing to take the Covid shots, especially when many cited religious exemptions? Here's a clue: Covid brought out the tyrants in government and media.

Trump will have his revenge and so, too, will all patriotic Americans

Donald Trump, amid running for president, has been gagged by leftists from speaking about the leftist attacks that have been fabricated by leftists working for the political party in charge that coincidentally, wink, wink, happens to be running a leftist campaign against him for 2024. Truly, Democrats are Stalinists.

Gavin Newsom’s cozying to godless CCP disqualifies him for POTUS

It's one thing to maintain diplomatic ties with enemies so as to cooperate on matters of mutual interest and importance, such as economic opportunities or regional peace or human rights. It's another thing entirely to kiss their feet. Gov. Gavin Newsom, in China, did much more of the second than the first.

Rule of law, schmule of law: Democrats reward illegals while destroying America

A couple of illegals who were charged with burglary and theft after shoplifting $1,700 worth of clothing from a Macy's in Oak Brook, Illinois, were arrested -- one of them, after breaking free of security forces and trying to flee -- jailed and then, get this, released with ankle-monitoring bracelets. Not deported.

Rep. Beth Van Duyne on Tuesday said Israel needs help "now" and that's why House Republicans are pushing a stand-alone bill for aid to America's Mideast ally. (AP Photo/Ohad Zwigenberg)

Bold & Blunt video: Live from Israel — a talk on the lying media

Without better reporting -- without better journalists covering this war -- it won't be long before the entire world coalesces against Israel because it will be the Jewish people who will be painted as the evil, and Hamas as the force for liberty.

Bold & Blunt: Abortion declines, no thanks to Democrats

One of life's biggest puzzle is the challenge to understand how someone can profess a love for God, but at the same time, stand strongly in support of abortion. It's delusional, at best. Evil, at worst.

Hamas founder’s son more honest than White House, media

Mosab Hassan Yousef is the son of a founder of Hamas, and he told a Fox News audience that in a matchup between Hamas and ISIS to determine which is more dangerous -- it's the former, by a long shot. This, as Joe Biden strolls gently along beachy shores with his wife, Jill.

Orlando shame, as boy, 11, parades in princess gown for LGBTQ crowd

An 11-year-old boy pretending to be a girl -- because his parents pushed him to believe that -- donned a flowery gown and served as the grand marshal of Orlando's "pride parade" to the cheers of thousands. These sick, evil people, along with the boy's sick, evil parents, will one day face an unimaginable wrath.

Bold & Blunt: America’s clashing culture wars

If you want to understand why Americans have lost liberties in recent times, look to the churches. As morals decline, government power rises. That's because a society without virtuous people is a society that demands, nay, requires Big Government to control behaviors.

Border madness and the Democrats who foster it

Texas is taking the lone star step of adding a border wall between its own state and that of New Mexico's. Why? So many migrants are using New Mexico as a path to jump through to Texas and then parts unknown that Republican leaders say they have no choice. This is a crisis of the Democrats' making.

Biden’s revealing downplay of Hamas’ terror

The U.S. State Department lists Hamas as a designated foreign terrorist organization. If only President Biden would get on board and stop making confusing remarks that go like this: "Look, what happened in Gaza, in my view, is Hamas and the extreme elements of Hamas don't represent all of the Palestinian people ..."

Americans for sale, a billion dollars plus change per head

National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan said in a presser on Sunday that so far, zero Americans captured by Hamas terrorists and dragged into Gaza have managed to escape -- or have been released. Of course not. To Hamas, these are high-dollar items. And they know this administration will pay to play.
