Globalists are not done exploiting COVID, not by a long shot

COVID may have been taken off the emergency, emergency, emergency list. But it's still going to be used as a platform for bureaucrats to issue controls. And it just so happens, WHO just updated its COVID-19 Strategic Preparedness and Response Plan. How handy. How dandy. How top-down controlling.

Trump would wipe floor with Biden

A new poll from ABC and The Washington Post shows Donald Trump trouncing Joe Biden in a 2024 presidential matchup, 45-38. Even Democrats are biting their nails on this one.

WHO’s ‘health equity’ will kill American liberty

The World Health Organization pushed for "renewed action on health equity," a phrase the bureaucrats like to sling to divide people by classes -- the haves versus have nots -- and then to exploit by fostering the anger of the have nots to grow government's power as provider.

Health and Human Services Secretary Xavier Becerra testifies during the House Committee hearing on Ways and Means hearing on March 28, 2023, on Capitol Hill in Washington.

HHS Xavier Becerra makes play to destroy 2nd Amendment

Health and Human Services Secretary Xavier Becerra reportedly called gun violence, in the aftermath of an Atlanta shooting, a "public health crisis" -- a label the left has been trying to affix for some time so as to sidestep the Constitution and put the Second Amendment in the hands of medical bureaucrats to control.

America’s rise of the leftist ignorants

Oklahoma. Tennessee. Colorado. Montana. Texas. Leftists have obviously decided that the way to win political battles is to drown out debate and dumb down the legislative process. That figures. Most leftists are toddlers in adult bodies, devoid of critical thinking skills and passionate only for the fleshly.

Platforms don’t lie: Democrat is socialist is communist

Election season dawns and with that, the normal political showdowns of Republican versus Democrat. But check the party platforms. Whereas Republicans talk Constitution and freedom and American values, Democrats talk the Communist Party USA talk. Democrats walk the Socialist Party USA walk.

Sanctuary Chicago begs Texas: Please, no more illegals!

Lori Lightfoot, the Second Amendment hating Democrat mayor of sanctuary city Chicago who just lost her bid for reelection, sent a letter to Republican Texas Gov. Greg Abbott pleading with him to stop sending illegals her way. Typical Democrat. What's good for me is certainly not good for thee.

U.S. military in deep, Democrat doo-doo

Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm told Senate Armed Services Committee members that she's A-OK with the military going full-blown electrical. And all the communists in China go -- yay. It's China, after all, that's a leading seller of the core elements needed for electrically energized vehicles.

Dr. Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, speaks during a press briefing at the White House, Tuesday, Nov. 22, 2022, in Washington.

(AP Photo/Patrick Semansky, File)

Fauci is fooling only himself

Dr. Anthony Fauci, for all his fancy explanations and even fancier dances of obfuscations, is probably the leading person to blame for the COVID lockdowns, clampdowns, seizures of individual liberties and ridiculous forced face masking. Don't be taken by his lies.

K.A. Chacko, 85, spends time reading the Bible at the Signature senior living facility in Kochi, Kerala state, India, March 6, 2023. In this coastal state in India's southern tip, the aging population provides a stark contrast to the young India of the north. The most literate state in India, Kerala is also the fastest aging part of the country. Declining fertility and increasing longevity have been contributing to the demographic shifts in the State.

Faith falters in face of COVID, leaving America vulnerable

The Cultural Research Center at Arizona Christian University took a look at faith in America, post-COVID-19, and found: Fewer now believe they have a God-given purpose for life, and fewer now hold human life to be sacred. This bodes darkly for the future of American liberty.

Fox News, the next Bud Light

Fox News announced its top ranked, ratings' star host Tucker Carlson has left the cable channel in what was initially described as an agreeable parting of the ways. Later reports suggested Carlson may not have been so agreeable in the parting. Then shares of Fox sank by 5%.

Democrat, socialist pretend on MSNBC to understand free speech

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez went on MSNBC over the weekend for an interview with former White House spokesperson Jen Psaki about the Fox News v. Dominion Voting System lawsuit, free speech and whether Tucker Carlson is inciting violence. It's so propaganda it puts propaganda to shame.

Former President Donald Trump leaves Trump Tower in New York on Tuesday, April 4, 2023. Only 4 in 10 U.S. adults believe Trump acted illegally in New York, where he has been charged in connection with hush money payments made to women who alleged sexual encounters, according to a new poll by The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research. More — about half — believe he broke the law in Georgia, where he is under investigation for interfering in the 2020 election vote count. (AP Photo/Bryan Woolston, File)

Trump naysayers would’ve condemned Solomon, David, Daniel, Rahab, too

There's a running theme about Donald Trump that goes like this: He hasn't a chance; his time is through; he's his own worst enemy. And so forth. Then there's another theme Trump himself brings to the table that goes like this: Bite me. And guess which side has been proven right time and time again?

San Jose church punished for standing strong to COVID stupid

Calvary Chapel San Jose has been ordered by a Superior Court judge to pay $1.2 million for violating the Santa Clara County's coronavirus-tied orders, which included forced face masking and bans on indoor worship. Fined for fighting stupid -- welcome to the Democrats' world.

Dr. Anthony Fauci, then-director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, arrives to speak about the coronavirus in the James Brady Press Briefing Room of the White House, April 22, 2020, in Washington.

The walls are finally closing in on Anthony Fauci

The more Republicans in the GOP-dominated House pick and probe, the more Anthony Fauci is revealed as a liar, liar, pants on fire. The walls are closing in on Fauci. And it's about dang time.

Cans of Bud Light beer are seen on Thursday, Jan. 10, 2019, in Washington. On Friday, April 7, 2023, The Associated Press reported on stories circulating online incorrectly claiming Anheuser-Busch fired its entire marketing department in response to its partnership with a transgender influencer and the rollout of LGBTQ Pride-themed Bud Light cans that feature various pronouns. (AP Photo/Jacquelyn Martin) **FILE**

Bud Light — blech: Let the transgender consumers bail you out

Bud Light was already a crappy beer. But now they're a crappy beer with a crappy public relations message that caters to a 1% population that, curiously enough, probably didn't even drink the crappy beer in the first place -- the transgender community.

President Joe Biden and first lady Jill Biden return to the White House after a weekend in Delaware following their visit to Ireland and Northern Ireland, in Washington, Sunday, April 16, 2023. (AP Photo/J. Scott Applewhite)

Joe Biden continues to fall in favor polls

If there's one consistent characteristic of this White House administration, it's the fact that the more Biden governs, the less people favor him; the more the people see of Biden, the less they like him; the longer Biden leads, the less people want him to lead.

Progressive Democrats have increasingly substituted the phrase for “mother” or “pregnant woman” for “birthing people." (AP Photo/M. Spencer Green)

Democrats, the media and their ‘birthing people’ nonsense

Lies and the lying liars who advance them. Birthing people, also known as females, are always females, never males. So why the need for the phrase in the first place? This is yet the next step in the LGBTQ-and-their-enablers' quest to cripple traditional family.
