The Paris attack shows us what Islamic wild animals intend to do to us. So when will Ben Carson fire Armstrong Williams his de facto campaign manager and big Nation of Islam fan? Carson makes his biggest blunders speaking off the cuff. Without his chief handler and puppet master it is very difficult for him to explain some of his most puzzling positions. He is not a politician and it shows almost every time he speaks. “But this is a year that we don’t want politicians,” you say. This primary season has shown us that a strong resume can get...

A.M.Costa Rica: If the unlikely combo of President Barack Obama and Pope Francis did good for the Cuban people by re-establishing diplomatic relations with Cuba, then why are Cubans fleeing their island nation by the thousands? In re-establishing diplomatic relations with Cuba, Obama and the pontiff didn’t help the oppressed people of Cuba under Communist rule, but only enabled the human rights ignoring Castro brothers. Here are the results of the Obama Cuban legacy:

Execution-style vengeance killing of nine-year old Chicago resident Tyshawn Lee The November 2nd execution-style vengeance killing of nine-year old Chicago resident Tyshawn Lee has been completely ignored by the Black Lives Matter movement. Likewise, his tragic death remains unacknowledged by so-called black “leaders” like the rabble-rousing Al Sharpton or fellow Chicagoan Jesse Jackson. Even the former Chicago community-organizer Barack Obama—and his pouty-faced “bring back our girls” wife Michelle—have interestingly chosen silence despite their polarizing, knee-jerk history of inserting themselves into the political discourse. Unlike, Trayvon Martin who garnered country-wide attention and outrage regarding his unfortunate fate—a life cut short by...

If you want to destroy liberalism, though--both the suicidal modern ideology and the extant remnants of the classical variety--Islamization is a sure way to do it What’s the point in the West sending troops to the Middle East if we bring the Middle East to the West? The preceding is a money line, one that should be used by Islam realists from Germany to Georgia. The Paris terror attack has inspired much debate, from conservatives saying we need to confront ISIS aggressively overseas to liberals wringing their hands over rising anti-Islam sentiment that they claim will exacerbate the jihadist problem....

Donald Trump is taking the collapse of Europe and beating the Democrats over the head with it. The issue of whether or not to bring Muslim “refugees” to our country is already explosive for Democrats; but Barack Obama insists on pouring gasoline on the fire. The attacks on Paris seem to have finally overcome the stream of lies from the Left about Islam being a “religion of peace” rather than the threat to the civilized world it actually is. Even the French Left has sobered up and is grudgingly come to acknowledge the simple truth: They must either fight or...

Hold fast, governors, and do the job of protecting the American people that our federal government refuses to do! Something amazing seems to be in the process of happening—a majority of the governors of our states appear to be finding the courage to stand up to the federal government and Obama’s plan to resettle terrorists disguised as “refugees” all across the country. For decades, state governments have been so cowed by the federal government that time and time again, they acquiesce to any and all unconstitutional actions forced upon them by the federal government, no matter how excessive or ridiculous....

Would a President Trump be ready to use his executive pen to stop the flood of illegal immigrants by building a fence, enforcing current immigration laws, and deporting criminal illegal aliens? We keep hearing that our current immigration system is broken and it must be overhauled to better serve the immigrants, especially the illegal ones. And in this process, it seems that immigration, whether legal or illegal, is not necessarily run in the best interest of the American people, but in the best interest of crony capitalists and the ruling elites. The U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS), an agency...

Intrepid Explorer: The Autobiography of the World's Best Mine Finder, by J. David Lowell 496 pages, Published by Sentinel Peak Press, University of Arizona, 2014 J. David Lowell is a hero directly out of Ayn Rand's Atlas Shrugged, but in real life.  This little promoted book is an inspirational account of a life built on the American dream, a questioning and active mind, physical courage and achievement that enriched the entire world.  The book is a true life adventure novel.  It was hard to put down.  I read longer into the night than I should have. It was impossible...

This was initially written and sent to the current democrat governor of Virginia, one Terence McAuliffe, but I decided to publish it here as an open letter to just about everyone else as well. To all Western government officials, politicians, and populations, Trust me on the topic of this message: Following my tour of duty in Southeastern Turkey with a USAF site counter-terrorism security force in the early 1980s, I was later the non-commisioned officer in charge of the anti-terrorism program for Project ELF One in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia during the mid-80s. Next, I performed Special Air Missions security for...

We've all been part of these discussions, and we've all read a ton of them on forums and blogs over the years: "If you could have only one gun for TEOTWAWKI, what would it be?" A more enlightened-seeming variant on this same theme are discussions that start with, "If you could pick only three guns for TSHTF.." Here's what's wrong with so many of these discussions: no matter what flavor of civilization-ending apocalypse you contemplate-meteor strike, super volcano, global pandemic, EMP blast, etc.-a SHTF scenario is likely to play out in phases, and for each phase you're going to need...

Here is where the 291 Syrians who have entered the US in FY2016 have been placed. California, Texas, Kentucky, Arizona and Ohio make the top five. (I selected for my search October 1, 2015 to November 15, 2015 and assume the data base is up to date to the 15th, but can’t know that for sure). The flood gates have been opened and they will arrive hot and heavy now At the Refugee Processing Center (click on reports and select interactive reports, you will be able to figure it out!) you can also check the religions of arriving refugees. Here...

Many articles have appeared in this column questioning the conventional wisdom on matters ranging from infection control practices; to the validity of established (yet oft-changing) guidelines on diet, and “healthy” blood titers for a host of substances; to suitable blood pressure numbers. The implication is that such wisdom is subject to influence by sundry commercial and political forces. While most people are familiar with the CDC, FDA, and NIH, in many cases, so-called non-governmental organizations (NGOs) are involved. These can be trade associations such as the American Heart Association and American Medical Association, as well as consensus standard groups such...

The left-wing lynchers doing the president's bidding in the streets Barack Obama’s demagogic presidency has unleashed state-sanctioned mob violence to a degree not seen since the Jim Crow era. Obama-approved lynch mobs have been helping to force the fundamental transformation of America that the radical left-wing community organizer promised on the campaign trail in 2008. Creating little armies of malcontents has long been the way Obama’s fellow Marxist agitators have turned groups in society against each other in order to generate the civil unrest and societal instability needed to effect unwanted change. Sometimes thugs get things done that elections can’t....

Wage a global war exclusively aimed at wiping out ISIS and all radical jihadist Islamic Muslims from the face of the earth If I were not such as agnostic as I am when it comes to traditional superstitions, I would probably be just as unwary as to believing that the bloodbath that took place in Paris, France was yet an impervious avowal to the renown Friday, the 13th, a/k/a Black Friday cliché, that this day, is, in fact, as ill-fated as Western civilizations make it out to be. Be that as it may, I am angry—as angry as I can...

Just don't expect any American leadership or victory. The commander in chief is not only incapable of delivering it, he's entirely unwilling I don’t know why it surprises me anymore. Middle of the day, I’m checking my Facebook feed on my phone and I see, according to one of my FB friends, Obama has declared that in any response to ISIS he would not be interested in notions of “America winning” or “American leadership.” Did he really say that? I wasn’t at my laptop and thus not in a position to really do a search for it. That he thinks...

A former West Hills - San Fernando Valley of Los Angeles - man was arrested for wildlife trafficking charges. The fish in question were exotic South American Arapaima gigas. Isaac Zimerman, a 66-year-old American citizen, was extradited from Mexico in September to face charges contained in a 13-count indictment. Prosecutors said he used his now-defunct company, Hawthorne-based River Wonders LLC, to import Araapaima gigas, which can sometimes grow to 15 feet in length and have been known to leap from the water to catch low-flying birds, along with nearly 900 piranhas and dozens of river stingrays into the United States....

Isn't it time to ask that it be returned? 2009 Nobel Peace Prize "The 2009 Nobel Peace Prize was awarded to United States President Barack Obama for his "extraordinary efforts to strengthen international diplomacy and cooperation between people". The Norwegian Nobel Committee announced the award on October 9, 2009, citing Obama's promotion of nuclear nonproliferation and a "new climate" in international relations fostered by Obama, especially in reaching out to the Muslim world."

More modern samizdat art from the new media.  This poster succinctly portrays the disarmist strategy of disarmament by a thousand cuts, or incremental confiscation. The strategy worked in England and Wales (and one could argue, medieval Japan), but it is not working in the United States. The premise is to make guns costly and difficult or impossible to use without severe legal impediments.  This is supposed to lead to reduced levels of gun ownership.  When gun ownership drops to the point where it becomes politically ineffective, then wide scale confiscation becomes possible. Until that point, incremental confiscation is the...

Although Paris officially bans the taking of racial/religious statistics, everybody knows the French prison system is chock-full-o'-Muslims... estimates run as high as 70-80%.  Unsurprisingly, penitentiaries in France are considered a 'mill' for radical extremists.  That's why when we talk about keeping Americans safe from any with ISIS links and such, we need to keep in mind that putting convicted collaborators/enablers in US prisons only allows the cancer to grow undetected. Muslim extremism can probably do more damage to us in the long run in our prison system than on the street, due to a large supply of disgruntled, easily-impressed losers -that know...
