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.

Bill Gates, co-chair, Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, speaks at a news conference during the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, Wednesday, May 25, 2022. The sale of prime North Dakota farmland to a group tied to Gates has stirred emotions over a Depression-era law meant to protect family farms and raised questions about whether the billionaire shares the state’s values. (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?

Vice president Kamala Harris speaks to those gathered near the site of Monday's mass shooting during the Highland Park July 4th parade Tuesday, July 5, 2022, in Highland Park, Ill. (AP Photo/Charles Rex Arbogast)

Kamala Harris — ‘seriously?’

Vice President Kamala Harris stepped to a Highland Park podium and delivered short remarks on the Independence Day parade shooting -- after which the watching world reconfirmed their assessment of this White House administration as feckless, incompetent and utterly incapable.

Bette Midler latest leftie to buck LGBTQ lunacy

Bette Midler took to Twitter to express disgust with the current state of LGBTQ agenda that makes it seem as if men can get pregnant, menstruate and give birth. That's how crazy the Democrats have become -- they're isolating their normally cozy Hollywood supporters

Climate alarmists seizing their day

Climate alarmists took over the highways of Maryland in the lead-up to the holiday weekend, blocking all lanes across the inner loop of Interstate 495 and causing traffic disruptions that lasted 90 minutes. It's beginning. The switch from COVID-19 to radical environmentalism is in the works.

Democrats are great for Republicans

Democrats -- Democrats and don't forget Rep. Liz Cheney -- are giving Republicans massive wind at their backs for both the midterms and the next presidential election. Emily Post might suggest thank-you notes are in order.

Rep. Adam Kinzinger, R-Ill., left, and Chairman Bennie Thompson, D-Miss., listen as the House select committee investigating the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol continues to reveal its findings of a year-long investigation, at the Capitol in Washington, Thursday, June 23, 2022. (AP Photo/J. Scott Applewhite)

Rep. Adam Kinzinger stupidly calls out ‘Christian Taliban’

Rep. Lauren Boebert said she was "tired of this separation of church and state junk." Rep. Adam Kinzinger responded by likening Boebert's chalking up her remark as "Christian Taliban." This is a manufactured lie from the left and RINO-ey Kinzinger that ultimately skews America's history.

LGBTQ agenda emasculating police in Columbus

Police in Columbus, Ohio, have a new vehicle in their law enforcement lineup -- a shiny white SUV painted in Pride Month glory in glossy rainbow stripes and adorned with the movement's signature phrase, "Love Is Love. And all the criminals go: Yay.

Religious freedom wins! American exceptionalism wins

The Supreme Court ruled that high school football coach Joseph Kennedy indeed had a right to pray on the 50-yard line post-game. And with that, years of ridiculous leftist-fueled fights against obvious American rights -- to pray and worship freely -- come to an end.

Pro-lifers now have opportunity to heal, unite

Somewhere, in some clinic, in some state across America right now is a frightened girl who was about to have an abortion, but now, after the Supreme Court's overturn of Roe v. Wade, is told she can't. And it's not enough for pro-lifers to respond to that scenario by saying, "good."
