We are at war. Donald Trump stunned Congress and the nation this week by announcing that the United States is officially at war. Democrats are freaking out, claiming that the president has way overstepped his powers with the declaration. Read more…

  • To the dark side. One member of the House has been fiercely loyal to Donald Trump, and she has ridden that loyalty to several wins in the House, but that all just changed. She is now one of the president's fiercest critics, setting up a major showdown between the White House and Congress. Read more…
  • Flat-out lie! Democrats are starting to face some pushback in the media, and they don’t like it one bit. The latest to lose it on live TV was Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA), who had a complete meltdown when a usually left-leaning network hit her with some hard facts. Read more…
  • We have a development. There has been a major development in the New York City mayoral election. I am not saying that this will end Mamdani’s election hopes, but I am saying it will make the race much tighter. Read more...
  • We are under siege. A local ICE facility in a Democrat-led city was under an all-out assault. Yet, local law enforcement did nothing to help. This is exactly why Trump wants to bring in the National Guard to support them. Read more…

Video of the Day

Democrats want us to believe that they are not trying to break federal laws to include healthcare for illegal immigrants.

Thought of the Day

As we talk about freedom of speech, censorship, and the rise of socialism in the Democratic Party, it once again brings me back to a quote from Ronald Reagan:

"Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same."

One generation, that is all it will take to undo 250 years of our country evolving as a constitutional republic. That generation is starting to take charge, and we have to make sure they do not destroy the vision of our Founding Fathers.

  • Kamala Harris berating. Once again, former VP Kamala Harris looks to blame everyone but herself for her failures. The latest tidbit to emerge is the manner in which Harris went off on her staff after she was blindsided during a podcast interview for not being properly prepared. Read more…
  • Thought we got nuked. There was a massive explosion at a California oil refinery, and it was so loud that some residents thought they were under attack. They will be, sort of, as California gasoline prices are all but guaranteed to soar after this accident. Read more…
