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. That was for the "innocent lives in the occupied Palestinian territory and elsewhere," UNHRC posted on social media. Published October 12, 2023

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. Rather, he closed down the White House shop and went who knows where to discuss who knows what. The White House called it a "lid." It's actually called MIA. Published October 10, 2023

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

It's cynical but true: Speaking purely of dollars and cents, the medical community, Big Pharma and their partners in government have a financial interest in ensuring that Americans stay sick -- or at the least, reliant on pills and prescriptions to stay halfway healthy. Published October 6, 2023

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. Communists must love this guy. And the feeling may flow both ways. Published October 5, 2023

Kevin McCarthy’s fatal flaw in politics: He turned to Democrats

Kevin McCarthy, ousted speaker of the House, blamed Democrats for his removal and said Nancy Pelosi didn't honor a commitment to back him. What's that, Lassie? The Democrats acted deceitfully? And that right there is the reason McCarthy is ousted -- and rightly deserves to be ousted. Published October 4, 2023

Ted Cruz and his staff recently discovered Intuit, a financial services provider in Texas, was refusing to provide certain accounting services to manufacturers and sellers of firearms -- and of even businesses that make the parts that go into the building of firearms.

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. Published October 3, 2023

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. Published October 2, 2023

Righteously indignant Democrats are on a war path to eradicate Donald Trump from American politics.

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. Published September 28, 2023
