America’s debt is enslaving our youth

Rep. Ken Buck in a social media post relayed that 44 percent of income taxes collected this year have been spent on servicing America's $34 trillion debt -- $34 trillion and growing, that is. This is unsustainable.

A "Let's go Brandon" flag flies below the American flag Friday, Feb. 18, 2022, at Daytona International Speedway in Daytona Beach, Fla. The slogan, a euphemistic dig at President Joe Biden that stands in for a more vulgar saying, was scrubbed from a Colorado primary congressional ballot by a judge. GOP state Rep. Dave Williams, the candidate who wishes to include the phrase as his nickname, says he will appeal the judge's ruling. (AP Photo/Chris O'Meara)

Biden goes low and trolls Super Bowl MAGAs

President Biden, amid the fanfare of Super Bowl Sunday, sent on social media a troll-like image of himself with "Dark Brandon" laser beam eyes beneath the phrase "Just like we drew it up" -- an apparent mock at MAGA conservatives who wondered if pop star Taylor Swift was a plant to swing 2024 elections.

America, ‘we are on the precipice of Christian invisibility’

A new study from the Cultural Research Center at Arizona Christian University found that the spiritual beliefs of those between the ages of 8 and 12 years old are falling to the point where they think the Bible doesn't matter and that moral truths are not absolute. Parents are to blame.

Democrats rushing to destroy America before Trump Two

Hurry, hurry, hurry! That's the message of the Democratic Party to their minions in politics, from their overlords in the global governments -- hurry up and pass as much legislation, policy and regulations that will kill America's economy and Constitution before the 2024 elections.

Bold & Blunt: Demonic days bring fog of daze

It's time for Christians to cast off their fears, toss aside their doubts, clear up the clouds from their eyes, and jump feet first into the fires of today's politically hot camps. It's no coincidence that as Americans grow more secular, America grows its government.

Bold & Blunt: Finding joy in dark times

America certainly is facing some dark and perilous times and it's becoming more and more of a challenge to maintain a positive attitude. But it is possible to have joy. It starts with realizing the definition of joy is not the same as the definition of happiness, and that the idea of following one's heart leads to misery.

Musk on Democrats’ border nonsense says the quiet part out loud

Elon Musk weighed in on the border debate on the platform he owns, X, and said President Biden is purposely allowing illegals into America to solidify the coming generation of Democrat voters. He said the quiet part out loud. We all know this. Democrats deny this. Democrats are full of you-know-what.

Bold & Blunt video: Joe Biden signs order that endangers Israel

President Joe Biden just issued an executive order that sanctions "persons undermining peace, security and stability in the West Bank," naming four Israelis who've already been apprehended by Israel law enforcement for their crimes. The underlying result? It opens the door for more persecution of Jews.

Connecticut’s ungodly law met with swift and fierce opposition

Teaching children as young as third grade to believe that God is not the creator of male and female -- that humans can shape-shift into different forms and genders and sexes at will -- is pride personified. It's also evil. It's also wickedly rebelling against God and teaching the most innocent to similarly rebel.

Democrats deserve zero police protection

If there were only a way to strip the Democrats of police protection for, say, a week, so they could experience first-hand the folly and wickedness of their crime-enabling ways, maybe they'd stop their sanctuary city, open border, defund the police policies.

Soros money seeks Texas, Trump on a platter

Opportunity knocks. Open borders, open borders, open borders -- cut down all that concertina wire that the Republican-controlled state has installed in recent times and let the new generation of Democrat voters in; that's the rally cry of leftists. That's where Soros money digs in deep.

Bold & Blunt video: Donald Trump was right: UNRWA cesspool of antisemitism

Donald Trump pulled America's funding for UNRWA, the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for the Palestinian people, because it was revealed the organization was a shell for funding terrorism and anti-Israel, anti-America, anti-West rot. Joe Biden's presidency reversed that. And now Trump's shown as right.

It’s official: Biden’s nearly as bad as Carter

The numbers are in, the tally's been tallied, the figures have been figured and survey says -- it's official: Joe Biden, in his third year of presidency, is considered almost as bad as Jimmy Carter. How low can he go. There's a bumper sticker for Biden's 2024 campaign.
