On February 28, 2021 the New York Times reported: Biden’s Immigration Plan Would Offer Path to Citizenship For Millions. In reviewing the Biden administration’s catastrophic immigration proposals, the first question that should come to every American’s mind is, how does this benefit America and struggling Americans? This is especially true because the Biden immigration bill would likely result in the lawful admission of more than 100 million immigrants! I wrote about this issue in my article: “What Biden’s Immigration Policies Would Do To America: America’s adversaries can’t wait for this massive betrayal.” Incredibly this fact has been ignored by...

Biden is determined to return to the (to him) halcyon days of Obama’s Iran deal – an illegal treaty by which Obama gave Iran money and access to nuclear weapons. The real tragedy of Biden’s goal is that, thanks to Trump’s relentless pressure, Iran is on the ropes and Biden has the upper hand – he just doesn’t know this or, worse, doesn’t want to know it.

It was said of the Roman generalissimo Sulla that there was no better friend or worse enemy than he. This maxim of foreign policy––support and help your loyal allies, and damage and punish your enemies––was proven common sense for millennia. Then came the age of moralizing internationalism, the belief that a “new world order” had made that realist truth anachronistic and primitive, a reflection of our benighted past. Now diplomatic engagement, democracy promotion, foreign aid, and multinational institution see to global security, peace, and prosperity. As a result, today there is no worse friend, and no better enemy than the...

The Bidens are back at it, getting involved in Ukraine. This time $125 million of US taxpayer dollars is at stake. The Daily Caller reports: President Joe Biden’s Department of Defense is providing a $125 million grant to Ukraine to improve the country’s ability to counter Russian aggression, the Pentagon announced Monday. The package comes roughly seven years after Russia first annexed Crimea, a region of Ukraine, in 2014. Russia has maintained high levels of aggression toward the former Soviet nation in the years since. Former President Donald Trump was notoriously impeached and subsequently acquitted for holding up a military...

There is currently a lot of attention being paid to new Democrat-proposed gun control laws, particularly House Bill 127, which would require national registration and licensing of all firearms, would ban broad categories of semi-automatic weapons, ban most ammunition magazines, and so on. One of the most frequent replies to these proposed laws is that there are not enough local or federal SWAT Team door-kickers to go house to house on gun confiscation raids, and if they tried, they would 1. soon run out of door-kickers and 2. instigate Civil War Two. But in the modern digital era, I...

A Great Dane had a great time experiencing his first snow in the yard of his home in Hernando, Mississippi, video from February 20 shows.

Ted Cruz fired back at John Boehner after the former Republican House Speaker rattled off an expletive-laced insult to the Texas senator while recording audio for his upcoming book. Boehner reportedly went off-script in recording his memoir saying, “Oh, and Ted Cruz, go (expletive) yourself.” ... Cruz began by joking that Boehner’s suggestion was, in fact, not a request he could fulfill. “You know yesterday, John Boehner made some news,” he said. “He suggested that I do something that was anatomically impossible.”

Last Monday the United States Supreme Court refused to review the Pennsylvania 2020 Election cases. The court made the announcement on Monday morning. Justices Alito, Gorsuch, and Thomas dissented from the denial. On Monday, following their inaction from last week, the US Supreme Court rejected without comment or explanation, lingering 2020 election challenges by Attorney Sidney Powell in Arizona and Wisconsin. The Supreme Court refused to secure the integrity of the US elections. Later on Monday night Attorney Sidney Powell released a statement on the refusal of the court to hear the election fraud cases. Sidney Powell says the ruling...

A third woman has come forward and accused Democratic New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo of sexual misconduct. Anna Ruch said the governor put his hand on her bare back during a wedding and when she removed it, he called her “aggressive.” Her friend told her that the governor kissed her on the cheek. “He said, ‘Can I kiss you?’” Ruch told the New York Times. “I felt so uncomfortable and embarrassed when really he is the one who should have been embarrassed.” ============================================================= A third woman has come forward and accused Democratic New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo of sexual misconduct....

WASHINGTON - Over half the people charged with taking part in the Jan. 6 siege of the U.S. Capitol were not connected to extremist groups or to one another, according to an analysis of arrest information. The study, by George Washington University's Program on Extremism, examined court documents and other data from 257 cases filed in federal court as of late February. It concluded that 33 of those charged were involved with militant networks and that 82 were connected with others through networks of like-minded believers. But the remaining 142 planned to go to the Capitol on their own, "inspired...

The Cuomo administration has hired a high-profile defense attorney who has counted Woody Allen and Harvey Weinstein among his clients to represent the Executive Chamber as federal investigators probe the state’s handling of nursing homes during the pandemic. Lawyer Elkan Abramowitz confirmed to the Daily News he and his firm are representing Gov. Cuomo and his top officials in relation to the the nursing home inquiry, but have “not been retained on the sexual harassment matter.” Abramowitz, a former federal prosecutor, already has a history with the governor as he served as Cuomo’s legal counsel when former U.S. Attorney Preet...

OUR WASHINGTON DISPATCHES. WASHINGTON, Friday, March 1. Great consternation was occasioned among the Border State men and Northern conservatives, to-day, by a rumor that Mr. SEWARD declined to go into the Cabinet at all, from a conviction that its proposed organization precludes the possibility of harmony or of a conservative Administration. Of course there was no reasonable foundation for the rumor, but its effect constituted a striking indication of how much confidence the country places in the distinguished statesmen of New-York, and how firm is the reliance upon his wisdom and patriotism, in the present national crisis. It was announced...

The Iranian-backed Houthi rebels in Yemen, who released footage of their ballistic missiles targeted Saudi Arabia’s capital over the weekend, have warned Saudi Arabia against escalation in the western and northern frontlines of Yemen. They say they will strike at Saudi Arabia’s Aramco if Saudi Arabia or UAE “fighters or supporters” commit “aggression” in certain areas. Snip.... It appears the Safer reference is to an area that was once at the heart of the battle for Marib in 2015. Today the Houthis are marching on Marib again. The Biden administration has warned them against attacks on Riyadh and urged them...

Today is the first day of March, which means we now essentially have a full year of COVID data from the four largest states in the country: California, Texas, Florida and New York. Thanks to the fact that we have federalism in this country, we can look at the factual COVID data and begin to answer a big question: did COVID lockdowns make any sense at all? And also, how do we assess the overall performance of governors in this country? Regardless of your politics, the best state leadership would have done two things during COVID: limit deaths and keep...

Five years ago Kate suffered a series of seizures and ultimately was diagnosed with ADEM (Acute Disseminated Encephalomyelitis). She was put on seizure medication. Since then, seizures became rare, but recently she had two episodes within a month. Let us pray for her continuing recovery. Saint Catherine of Siena is her patron saint. I also ask for the intercession of Saint Vitus. PRAYER TO ST VITUS FOR PEOPLE SUFFERING FROM EPILEPSY St Vitus, born in Italy, is the Patron Saint of dancers, comedians and those suffering from epileptic fits, together with St Dymphna. The cult of St Vitus is ancient....
