  • A suggestion for Texas, Arizona, and New Mexico: It’s time for the politicians in Washington, D.C. to start experiencing first-hand the effects of their border policies.

    Texas, Arizona, and New Mexico could make one major policy change, that would have a profound, immediate effect on national policy. It would be far more effective than a lawsuit winding through the courts and awaiting a sympathetic judge’s ruling. The statute governments should institute a policy, initially by executive order, then endorsed and reinforced by legislative action, that anyone who crosses the border from Mexico must be hustled onto a bus that, when full, is driven directly to Washington, D.C., emptied, and returned to the border for more passengers.* We’ve seen that, for our federal political class, what stays...

    Identity politics will drive us straight back into the tyranny and subjugation our Founders and subsequent generations fought so hard to escape.For something as seemingly mundane as a government report on civics, the “1776 Commission Report” has been a surprisingly hot topic.The report was posted to the White House website on a Monday around 5:30 p.m. ET. It was one of the last actions of the Trump administration. Less than 48 hours later, in one of the very first acts of the Biden administration, it was taken down. Fortunately, a handful of organizations posted it on their own websites so...

    After Brandon Sorbom graduated from Loyola Marymount University in Los Angeles in 2010, he decided to take the “couple of thousand dollars” he had saved and his credit card (he had 0% interest for a year) and fly to Boston.

    “For some of the heavyweight departments, the big guys, it’s not that big of a deal budget-wise,” El Portal Police Department Chief David Magnusson, told the CBS News local affiliate in Miami. “But for someone in the bantamweight department, such as us, it is a big deal.” The issue is more than just hitting departments financially. The shortage of ammunition has limited many police officers from taking part in state-mandated range training.

    The Dallas Morning News ^ | November 6, 2020 | By Mitchell Schnurman
    Solar and wind power, along with storage batteries, account for almost 95% of the proposed projects on ERCOT, Texas’ electric grid. Right after Election Day, the U.S. formally withdrew from the Paris climate agreement, a process President Donald Trump had started in 2017. But that didn’t stop Energy Transfer LP, a giant pipeline operator, from making a 15-year commitment to solar power. The Dallas company agreed to buy the solar energy from a 28-megawatt plant being built in Pecos County. “This project marks a new milestone for us as our first dedicated solar-powered facility,” an executive said in announcing the...
  • Post-impeachment, NYT retracts story about Officer Sicknick killed by Trumpster with fire extinguisher: What's emerging is a sinister sense that Trump was framed

    American Thinker ^ | 02/15/2021 | Monica Showalter
    Somewhere out there, there's an amazingly sinister story to be told about what happened in the series of events on Jan. 6 leading up to impeachment. Because fresh after the slapdash, failed second impeachment of President Trump, the New York Times has withdrawn the rawest element of its story, the anonymously sourced claim that Capitol Police Officer Brian Sicknick was killed by one of President Trump's supporters who hurled a fire extinguisher at him. Trump, recall, was declared "a murderer," for it, with "Trump's legal exposure questioned" for it, as USAToday reported. Here's how bad that New York Times retraction...

  • A Layman’s Guide to Penumbral Reasoning: The Supreme Court decided that the Supreme Court can declare that the Constitution means something it doesn’t say -- without concurrence of the citizenry

    American Thinker ^ | 02/15/2021 | John Green
    For over 50 years, constitutional scholars, and Supreme Court justices in particular, have used “penumbral reasoning” as one means to explain rulings expanding the Constitution of the United States. Law schools describe it as “reasoning by interpolation.” To put that in graphic terms, if you’re drawing a graph on paper, reasoning by interpolation allows you to extend the line off of the paper. I’m not a constitutional scholar, but I don’t think that’s necessary to see that this can lead to a very dark place. In legal terms, when a justice says they’re using penumbral reasoning, they’re admitting that the...

    Four people were killed and ten others wounded in shootings across Chicago this weekend. The weekend was equally deadly, but had less total shootings, than last weekend, when four people were killed and 22 others wounded between 5 p.m. Friday and 5 a.m. Monday. In the latest deadly attack, a 27-year-old man was shot and killed while seated in a vehicle Sunday morning on the South Side, police said. Someone walked up to him and fired gunshots about 11:20 am. About 12:20 a.m. Sunday, a man was fatally shot on the West Side. Officers found the 37-year-old laying on the...

    Happy President’s Day, and here’s my presidential story of the weekend. I spoke with President Trump Friday night at Mar-a-Lago. He seemed like he’s in a better mood, and this was even before the ridiculous impeachment “trial” ended Saturday with his acquittal, and his lawyer demolishing the media in a liveshot with See BS News (more below). After my radio show Friday night, Joe Piantedosi and I drove back to Palm Beach from Boca and met the mail-room manager at Mar-a-Lago. Our table for dinner was right next to POTUS’, and he came down at about 8 with Corey Lewandowski,...

    DALLAS (AP) — A winter storm dropping snow and ice also sent temperatures plunging across the southern Plains, prompting a power emergency in Texas a day after conditions canceled flights and impacted traffic across large swaths of the U.S. Rotating power outages were initiated by the Electric Reliability Council of Texas, or ERCOT, early Monday morning, meaning thousands went without electricity for short periods as temperatures fell into the teens near Dallas and 20s (about minus 5 degrees Celsius) around Houston. Officials in Houston had warned people to prepare for outages and hazardous roads — conditions similar to what residents...

    We need a full, thorough, and independent investigation with subpoenas to Department of Health Commissioner Howard Zucker, the governor’s staff, and the governor himself.A few weeks ago, New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo, without a hint of self-awareness, said, “Incompetent government kills people. More people died than needed to die in COVID.” Sadly, I couldn’t agree more. While many in corporate media glorified Cuomo’s handling of the COVID-19 pandemic, helping create a cult of personality for him among Democrats across the country, an examination of his decision-making reveals that he failed New Yorkers on many fronts. Cuomo was given near-unilateral emergency...
