Trump one handcuff photo away from historic MAGA wins

Donald Trump sat next to his attorney as cameras captured both the stony stares of the politically charged globalist-funded attorney general who's prosecuting the former president, and the smiley-faced primping of the judge as he posed for the pictures. That's not just biased and unprofessional. That's a circus act.

Rep. Jamaal Bowman should be expelled because you and I would be arrested

Rep. Jamaal Bowman is under investigation for pulling a fire alarm as his fellow Democrats were desperately trying to delay a vote -- an action that resulted in the full-scale response of law enforcement and the clearing of the federal building. He says he was just trying to open a door. He's obviously lying.

God establishes equity, not Democrats

Leftists love to talk about the need for equity in America, equity in business; they love to talk up the need for diversity, equity and inclusion standards to be created by government.They see it as a morally righteous imperative. But equity is actually the domain of God.

Bold & Blunt: The dangerous Democrat quest to erase Donald Trump

Righteously indignant Democrats are on a war path to eradicate Donald Trump from American politics. And their latest attempt is to take to the courts to use the 14th Amendment to claim he incited an insurrection and should not be allowed on the ballots. Perilous times, America. Perilous times.

Democrats weaponize Constitution to destroy Trump

Democrats want to slap gag orders on Donald Trump so that while campaigning for president, he doesn't make any statements that might, well, truthfully speaking, show his innocence. Nothing like an innocent defendant to muck up a good politically weaponized attack.

California Democrats ratchet assaults on gun rights

California's Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom signed into law a handful of new gun control measures, including one that makes life harder for concealed carriers and another that adds taxes to the price of firearms and ammunition. Yeah. That oughta keep firearms out of the hands of criminals.

Bold & Blunt: Climate alarmism’s Marxist depopulation designs

Democrats have for years been on a warpath to control populations based on cries about carbon dioxide emissions and the need to save the planet from environmental degradation. But are you aware of the genesis of this entire radical environmentalist movement? Hint: Think World War Two.

Democrats once again fail to understand Trump

MSNBC "Morning Joe" host Joe Scarborough -- who used to be a Republican, remember -- snarked at a new Washington Post poll showing Donald Trump would handily beat Joe Biden for president, and said when he heard the news he "literally started laughing out loud." He shouldn't laugh.

In this Monday, June 1, 2020 file photo, President Donald Trump holds a Bible as he visits outside St. John's Church across Lafayette Park from the White House. Only a few legacy-defining moments have clung to Trump. But the forceful clearing of demonstrators from the park across from the White House has resonated like few others, sending Trump’s poll numbers tumbling and prompting top military leaders and usually lockstep Republicans to distance themselves from the president.

Christian nationalists to the rescue! America needs godly patriots

Leftists over the last few years have corrupted the term "Christian nationalist" to make it seem a negative -- a term to describe racists, misogynists, intolerants and haters. But it's really the foundation of American exceptionalism. What America needs are more Christian nationalists, not fewer.

Bold & Blunt: Marxists in the White House

Perhaps like no other White House in American history, this current Joe Biden administration pushes an agenda that is in direct conflict with the Constitution, with individualism, with liberty and with all that makes the country exceptional. It's not by accident.

Five-plus reasons why Americans should fight the face masks

Face mask mandates are coming back and this is the situation: Fight them, resist them, mock them and demand the bureaucrats who issue them stand down and step aside -- or America will soon see its next nationwide lockdown and loss of liberty. The face masks are the gateway for tyrants.

God lives! And that means America does, as well

Between 100 and 200 Auburn University student were baptized after attending a mass worship service where the preaching focused heavily on abstinence and the need to refrain from sexual immorality. This isn't just a good thing for the spiritual grounding of America's youth. It's a good thing for freedom.

White House begs press to play nice with Joe Biden

Joe Biden has fallen on hard impeachment inquiry times and now the White House wants media organizations to "ramp up scrutiny" of Republicans leading the process. Please, pretty please -- Biden's team is about as desperate as can be. They need distraction and they need it quick.
