Mockingbird media need their wings clipped

The CIA was busted in the 1970s for using America's news organizations as their propaganda and intelligence arms -- in some cases, paying, in other cases, forcing, reporters to do their secret, semi-subversive bidding. It was called Operation Mockingbird. Maybe it's still around. Published April 3, 2021

The Satanic Temple unveils its statue of Baphomet, a winged-goat creature, at a rally for the First Amendment in Little Rock, Ark., Thursday, Aug. 16, 2018. The Satanic Temple wants to install the statue on Capitol grounds as a symbol for religious freedom after a monument of the Biblical Ten Commandments was installed in 2017.

‘Satan Shoes’ a sign of America’s sickened soul

Rapper Lil Nas X launched a brand of athletic wear called "Satan Shoes" with an upside-down Christian cross, bronze pentagrams, a Bible reference to Luke 10:18 -- about the evil one's lightning-quick fall from Heaven -- and a drop of human blood. What a stark picture of the moral decaying of America. Published March 30, 2021

In this Tuesday, Nov. 18, 2020, file photo, children play at a camp of asylum seekers stuck at America's doorstep, in Matamoros, Mexico. Increasing numbers of parents and children are crossing the border, driven by violence and poverty in Central America and growing desperation in migrant camps in Mexico. U.S. Customs and Border Protection said Monday, Dec. 14, 2020 that it made 4,592 apprehensions of unaccompanied immigrant children in November, more than six times the figure in April.

Joe Biden has turned border into big Area 51-like secret

White House press secretary Jen Psaki said the Biden administration is "absolutely committed" to allowing journalists to tour the Border Patrol facilities to see the conditions for housing children. But why the delay? The fact that reporters are prevented at all is a red flag. Published March 29, 2021

Bill Gates is not America’s coronavirus god

Bill Gates, Microsoft founder-turned-vaccine-developer, just came out and predicted that the world, weary as it is from the coronavirus, will see a return to complete normalcy by 2022. The proper response to that prediction, at least for Americans, is: Who the blank is Bill Gates to say? Published March 27, 2021

A snack vendor fixes his mouth and nose covering, which he wears due to the COVID-19 pandemic, on a sidewalk in downtown Mexico City, Friday, Oct. 30, 2020. Prior to the coronavirus pandemic, Mexico’s economy was in recession, and that only deepened with the economic shutdown provoked by measures aimed at slowing the spread of COVID-19 during the second quarter.

Face masks, move over; there’s a new stupid in town: Cloth pig snouts

Americans are supposed to walk around with cloth-stitched snouts on their faces? To steal from the surgeon general: "Seriously, people." Any business -- any restaurant -- that puts up a sign saying "no nose mask, no entry" is a business and restaurant that deserves immediate boycott. Published March 26, 2021

Joe Biden should ban assault people

President Biden responded to the Boulder, Colorado, shootings by calling on Congress to pass a ban on assault weapons. Whatever that means. Aren't all guns to some extent capable of assaulting? It's the people who are firing those weapons we really need to stop, yes? Published March 25, 2021

In this Oct. 2, 2018, file photo, semi-automatic rifles fill a wall at a gun shop in Lynnwood, Wash. Mass shootings in Georgia and Colorado in March 2021, that left several people dead, have reignited calls from gun control advocates for tighter restrictions on buying firearms and ammunition. But with Democrats in control of the federal government, gun rights advocates have been persuading Republican-run state legislatures to go the other way, making it easier to obtain and carry guns.

Democrats and their ‘double standards’ on guns

Republican Sen. John Kennedy blasted Democrats for having a "double standard" on guns that goes like this: "If a bad guy shoots a cop, it's the gun's problem; if a cop shoots a bad guy, it's the cop's fault," he said. Great point. The "double standard" goes even deeper, though. Published March 24, 2021

Donald Trump’s brilliant America First social media move

Donald Trump could run for president of the United States for a second term. And who knows, maybe he will. But the better, more beneficial, even brilliant move is the one he's making -- to blow up social media with a new platform. Published March 23, 2021

Anthony Fauci, gag, to be memorialized in kids’ book

Anthony Fauci is going to be featured in a new children's book from Simon & Schuster called, "Dr. Fauci: How a Boy from Brooklyn Became America's Doctor." Gag. A better title? "Anthony Fauci: How a Boy Went From Brooklyn to Bust, in One Deception-Filled COVID-19 Year." Published March 22, 2021

Xavier Becerra, America’s new socialist-in-chief for COVID-19 crackdowns

Xavier Becerra was not "hired" to be the head of the Health and Human Services Department for his medical knowledge. He couldn't be; he has no medical background. Rather, he was brought to that position to be the federal government's pitbull for COVID-19 policy. Published March 20, 2021

Mike Pompeo reminds: ‘1,327 days’

Move over, James Brennan. Stay quiet, Mitt Romney. Stick to Netflix and Bruce Springsteen podcasts Barack Obama. This is how you do a Twitter feed as a former high-ranking member of government. "1,327 days," tweeted Mike Pompeo, secretary of State for President Donald Trump. Published March 19, 2021

Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., speaks during a Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee hearing on the federal coronavirus response on Capitol Hill in Washington, Thursday, March 18, 2021. (AP Photo/Susan Walsh, Pool)

Rand Paul gets gold star for taking on Anthony Fauci

In the world of COVID-19, it's the medical bureaucrats who've emerged as the voices who can never be questioned -- and that's a constitutional travesty, pure and simple. America is indeed paying a civil rights' price. So thank goodness for Sen. Rand Paul. Published March 19, 2021

Migrants stand in line after being released from U.S. Customs and Border Protection custody at a bus station, Wednesday, March 17, 2021, in Brownsville, Texas. Team Brownsville, a humanitarian group, is helping the migrants reach their final destination in the U.S. A surge of migrants on the Southwest border has the Biden administration on the defensive. An official says U.S. authorities encountered nearly double the number children traveling alone across the Mexican border in one day this week than on an average day last month.

Joe Biden could stop the border breach if he wanted

President Biden is facing a crisis situation at the border, with a reported 13,000 -- and growing -- number of unaccompanied minors in federal custody. And he could stop it. But he won't. He won't even agree that 13,000 unaccompanied children at the border is a crisis. Published March 18, 2021

George Soros, Open Society in hot water in Myanmar

Joe Biden — stop the presses! — to hold news conference

President Biden, through his press secretary Jen Psaki, announced he is going to hold a new conference on, ba dum dum, dum, March 25. The fact this makes national news as an event to promote is an underscore of the weakness of this president. Published March 17, 2021

In this Wednesday, Jan. 20, 2021, file photo, President Joe Biden pauses as he signs his first executive orders in the Oval Office of the White House in Washington. On Friday, Feb. 12, 2021, The Associated Press reported on a manipulated photo circulating online incorrectly asserting it shows Biden asleep in his seat at the Resolute Desk in the Oval Office with a stack of executive orders in front of him. Biden’s head in the post comes from a 2011 event where he appears to briefly doze off as former President Barack Obama delivered a speech on the national debt. (AP Photo/Evan Vucci)

Democrats on warpath to crumble America

Executive order after executive order. Open borders. Gun control. Trillion dollar stimulus giveaways on top of multitrillion-dollar debt. Now tax hikes? At this rate, by the end of the year, America as we know it will be no more. America the free? Try America like Venezuela. Published March 16, 2021

People surround a car as it arrives carrying food donations at a makeshift camp for migrants seeking asylum in the United States at the border crossing Friday, March 12, 2021, in Tijuana, Mexico. The Biden administration hopes to relieve the strain of thousands of unaccompanied children coming to the southern border by terminating a 2018 Trump-era order that discouraged potential family sponsors from coming forward to house the children.

Joe Biden has created a border mess

President Joe Biden told wanna-be border crossers to wait a bit -- don't come just yet -- and with that, opened the doors wide for border crossers. It's the caveat that counted most. To the masses, the message was: Don't worry; you'll get in. Eventually, you'll get in. Published March 15, 2021
