Liz Cheney, Kevin McCarthy, Mitt Romney — they’re all the same

Look. There's a political battle going on within GOP leadership over, well, who's going to lead. But it's potato, potahto. Tomato, tomahto. Liz Cheney, Kevin McCarthy. They're all the same. They're all the same in that their political ambitions come first and those of the voters, second. Published May 5, 2021

Joe Biden has a strange definition of patriotism

President Biden told America repeatedly that on the coronavirus, his White House would follow the science and issue executive guidance based solely on the science. He lied. He meant he would select which science to follow, which science to ignore. Published May 3, 2021

This frame grab from police body cam video provided by the Galveston Police Department, in Galveston, Texas, shows Terry Wright, 65, of Grants Pass, Oregon, arguing with an officer inside a Bank of America branch, Thursday, March 11, 2021, in Galveston, after being told she needed to leave the bank because she was not wearing a face mask, amid the coronavirus pandemic.

COVID-19 crackdowns, as predicted, go permanent in states

This is what civil libertarians warned would occur due to lingering mass hysteria over the coronavirus -- that government, once possessed of its extraordinary powers that were granted because of extraordinary circumstances, would not let go those extra powers. Published May 1, 2021

Michael Savage proves prophetic on leftist-fueled ‘civil war’

America's hurtling toward a showdown between citizens who understand the concept of God-given individual rights and Democrats who want socialism to replace capitalism. And that's "Democrats" in air quotes; this batch of pols sporting the donkey pin are more Marxist. Published April 29, 2021

Attorney General Merrick Garland leaves after speaking at the Department of Justice in Washington, Monday, April 26, 2021. The Justice Department is opening a sweeping probe into policing in Louisville after the March 2020 death of Breonna Taylor, who was shot to death by police during a raid at her home.

Sanctuary cities — they’re back!

With little to no fanfare, the Justice Department repealed a President Donald Trump-era provision that stopped taxpayer-funded grants going to cities and counties and states that didn't turn over illegals for federal apprehension and prosecution. Goodbye law, goodbye order. Published April 29, 2021

Joe Biden has a booming COVID-19 border crisis

President Biden's border policy of letting in illegals and messaging for more to come has created a situation at the border the liberal-leaning New York Times can't even deny -- that these people aren't tested for COVID-19 and that's putting plenty at risk. Published April 28, 2021

Keith Ellison, second from left, surrounded by family members, places his hand on the Koran as U.S. District Judge Michael Davis administers the oath of office for the new Minnesota attorney general during ceremonies in St. Paul, Minn. Taking over as lead prosecutor in George Floyd's death is giving Ellison a national platform to talk about race in America. (AP Photo/Jim Mone, File)

Blacks need to stop resisting police — but they won’t

Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison told "60 Minutes" host Scott Pelley that George Floyd bears zero responsibility for his own death -- that it's all due to police brutality and racism. This is a lie that's being replicated around the nation by leftists who want to destroy America. Published April 27, 2021

Joe Biden falls far short of 100-day promises

President Biden rose to the White House on a wave of promises -- some well-defined, some all smoke and mirrors, but all promises to the people just the same. And he's failed to deliver on most all of them. Published April 26, 2021

Rep. Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, questions Dr. Anthony Fauci, the nation's top infectious disease expert, during a House Select Subcommittee hearing on Capitol Hill in Washington, Thursday, April 15, 2021, on the coronavirus crisis. (AP Photo/Susan Walsh, Pool)

Anthony Fauci: Give us the number!

Anthony Fauci was pressed to give the precise measurement America would have to reach to return to normal -- and the good dohktah could't say. He wouldn't say. He couldn't and wouldn't say because the coronavirus is not about health, but rather, political opportunity. Published April 17, 2021

Democrats, a la FDR, float court-packing idea to chill conservative justices

Democrats are floating the court-packing idea as far and wide as possible in order to send a message to the constitutionally minded justices to watch it, watch how you rule, watch how you vote. That's how President Franklin D. Roosevelt won concessions from the court on his New Deal ideas. Published April 16, 2021

Democrats, party of stoners

The website LawnStarter, which is the advertising forum for a landscaping, pest control and home care company, just put out a list called "2021's Best Cities to Get Stoned." All the cities are run by Democrats. No wonder Democrats can't think clearly. They're stoned. Published April 15, 2021

This March 30, 2021, file photo shows minors inside a pod at the Donna Department of Homeland Security holding facility, the main detention center for unaccompanied children in the Rio Grande Valley run by U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP), in Donna, Texas. More Americans disapprove than approve of how President Joe Biden is handling waves of unaccompanied immigrant children arriving at the U.S.-Mexico border, and his efforts on larger immigration policy aren’t polling as well as those on other top issues.

Democrats should treat borders like restaurants

California's political elites put a chain-link fence around a restaurant in Burbank because the owners refused to obey coronavirus clampdowns. If only Democrats were as strict with illegal border crossers. Imagine. America would be safe and secure for decades to come. Published April 13, 2021

Anthony Fauci and his faux science sow more seeds of fear

Dr. Anthony Fauci said that even those who've been vaccinated should not gather indoors, or eat indoors, or remove their masks -- or basically, in essence, do anything that involves being around others.

Gun-makers face extinction under Joe Biden

Matt Gaetz matter flags hypocrisies of Democrats who sexualize youth

The age of consent for sexual intercourse in 34 states, plus the District of Columbia, is 16 years old; in six states, 17 years old; and in 11 states, 18 years old. So why do Democrats try so hard to sexualize the nation's youth at every turn? That in itself seems just this side of criminal. Published April 9, 2021

United said Tuesday, April 6, 2021, it is now taking applications for the academy in Arizona, including from people who have no flying experience. (AP Photo/Jeff Chiu, File)

United Airlines pushes equity button too far

United Airlines' officials announced that its pilot training program over the next decade will focus on diversity, and at least half of its planned 5,000 new-hire pilots will be women and minorities. They hope, that is. Great. What if they suck at flying, though? Published April 8, 2021

When highways are racist

President Biden's DOT shut down a highway project in Houston, saying the road construction was a classic case of racial injustice. At the same time, feds demanded contractors tied to the job get rid of all their black-ink pens, saying any color but green sent a message of racial injustice. Published April 7, 2021
