Bold & Blunt: America’s clashing culture wars

Border madness and the Democrats who foster it

Texas is taking the lone star step of adding a border wall between its own state and that of New Mexico's. Why? So many migrants are using New Mexico as a path to jump through to Texas and then parts unknown that Republican leaders say they have no choice. This is a crisis of the Democrats' making.

Biden’s revealing downplay of Hamas’ terror

The U.S. State Department lists Hamas as a designated foreign terrorist organization.

Americans for sale, a billion dollars plus change per head

National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan said in a presser on Sunday that so far, zero Americans captured by Hamas terrorists and dragged into Gaza have managed to escape -- or have been released.

Dylan Mulvaney is a man, and no ‘Woman of the Year’ award changes that

Dylan Mulvaney is a male who pretends to be a female and who was just awarded "Woman of the Year" by Virgin Atlantic Attitude in the United Kingdom. That is a truth. He was given that award. Another truth? Dylan Mulvaney will always be a man, no matter how many awards he wins for womanhood. Published October 13, 2023

Bold & Blunt: Government’s January 6 lies

The media would have it believed that January 6 was a violent insurrection of MAGA supporters who wanted to tear down the halls of Congress, beat up the Democrats and viciously assault and attack and injure, even kill, any police officer who dared stand in their way. But that's the lie. And it's just one of many. Published October 12, 2023

Antisemitism at United Nations and beyond

Earlier this week, the United Nations Human Rights Council held a moment of silence to recognize the loss of life in Israel at the hands of terrorist Hamas -- oops, nope. No, it didn't.

Biden goes dark amid death, mayhem, war and doom

President Biden, in the wake of learning that nine Americans were among those killed by Hamas terrorists attacking Israel over the weekend, said -- nothing.

Bold & Blunt: Big Pharma’s vested interest in keeping Americans sick

Hillary Clinton’s hubris all too common in today’s wicked politics

Hillary Clinton, who failed in her White House run against Donald Trump, took to CNN "Primetime" to say that the MAGA types of America are little more than "cult members" who need a "formal deprogramming." If a haughty spirit goes before a fall, then certainly hubris such as this won't be well-received by God. Published October 6, 2023

Pope Francis, ever political, scorches America for ‘irresponsible’ excess

Pope Francis kicked off a weekslong gathering in Rome aimed at charting the future course of the Catholic Church by denouncing America for an "irresponsible" lifestyle that is contributing to the climate change-tied demise of the world.
