Bold & Blunt: Deaths due to COVID shots: Yes, it’s real

Just in case you're wondering: Yes, the deaths due to COVID-19 shots that have been whispered about are real things. And Sen. Ron Johnson has the latest data on how frequently they occur. Unfortunately, he's finding the government bureaucrats who tell us to take these shots are stonewalling is data requests. Published January 25, 2024

A 9th Circuit Court of Appeals panel found the FBI had no constitutional right to open hundreds of private citizens' security deposit boxes and seize everything valued at more than $5,000 -- all the while failing to charge anybody with a crime.

Supreme Court’s epic fail to secure America’s borders

The U.S. Supreme Court ruled 5-4 -- thanks John Roberts; thanks Amy Coney Barrett -- in favor of Joe Biden's administration, clearing the way for federal agents to pull back razor wire Texas had installed to keep out illegals.

Bold & Blunt: Donald Trump or bust

America's best choice for president is Donald Trump. Why? He's the guy with the proven record of fighting against the globalist forces who would tear down American Exceptionalism and of standing strong on border control. And open border combined with globalist agenda are the two biggest threats to liberty. Published January 23, 2024

Obama is pulling Biden’s puppet strings, voters say in poll

Most voters told Rasmussen Reports they agree that Barack Obama is the White House whisperer in Joe Biden's ears, and that this administration doesn't do much without getting the go-ahead from the previous commander-in-chief and his cronies. Really, Rasmussen. That's so obvious it's almost comical. Published January 23, 2024

Biden and his feckless two-state push onto Israel

President Biden is growing impatient with Israel Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's refusal to consider a two-state solution as a bargaining chip with Palestinians to end the war against Hamas -- and that shows this White House's utter refusal to see the realities of the evils confronting the Jewish state.

The sin and socialism of Biden’s college loan forgiveness

If at first socialists don't succeed, they certainly will try, try again. Because nothing says socialism like taking tax dollars and giving to those deemed deserving by government. Nothing says socialist like bureaucrats who redistribute from hard-working Peter to pay lazy, bottom-feeder Paul. Published January 19, 2024

Eric H. Holder Jr., former attorney general of the United States during Barack Obama's presidency, took to MSNBC on "The Reid Out" to complain that if Donald Trump is elected in 2024, "democracy could end." Good. Because America is a republic, not a democracy. Published January 19, 2024

Davos and the great ‘Disease X’ deception

Davos bureaucrats say the world needs to be prepared for the next pandemic -- and what they mean by that, of course, is that the world's governments need to hurry up and hand the elites in the global bodies all the power to declare, monitor, surveil and dictate all-things-next-pandemic.

Bold & Blunt: Keeping Christianity relevant in a sin-filled world

Anthony Fauci and the dangers of science over God

Anthony Fauci said in closed-door House panel testimony that the social distance requirement of six feet that marked much of the Covid years -- and in some instances, still exists -- is unscientific, random, and "sort of just appeared" on the political and cultural scenes. In other words: He admitted he furthered a lie. Published January 12, 2024

Hunter and Mayorkas and Fani, oh my

Hunter Biden's curious art sales have reaped the kind of financial reward normally seen only in dead painters, and only in the good ones, neither category of which applies in this instance.
