After the United States Supreme Court upheld an Obama-era amnesty program, Republican U.S. Sen. John Cornyn (TX) says now is the time for a “permanent solution” to provide amnesty for an entire class of illegal aliens. Created in an executive order by then-President Barack Obama in 2012 after Congress declined to pass comprehensive immigration reform, DACA permitted some illegal aliens to remain in the United States and prevented law enforcement officials from deporting them. The lawless program was challenged by Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton and President Donald Trump as unconstitutional. In a 5-4 decision on Thursday, George W. Bush-appointed...

There are numerous reports of the U.S. military engaging in recent political activity that has raised some eyebrows. Many are wondering what is going on…. and there’s likely an alarming reason. Considering the specific examples over the past few years, I would argue the Democrats are positioning for use of the military in violation of the Posse Comitatus Act -or- by an expressed act of congress.Following the evidence to its logical conclusion is simple. The political apparatus of the DC state has framed a fraudulent narrative that “insurrection” against the federal government is an ongoing possibility.Toward that end the U.S....

(WASHINGTON) — As former President Donald Trump plots his post-White House political life, his flashy country club private properties have emerged as destination spots for Republicans looking to raise money through events that are also sure to line the former president’s pockets. Republicans have been making the trip to Trump’s Mar-a-Lago Resort in Palm Beach, Florida, to meet with donors — despite running for office in other states. While it’s common for politicians to travel outside of their state to reach bigger donors, in the age of Trump, meet-and-greets with Trump at what was once deemed the “Winter White House”...

Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas on Tuesday disclosed that the migration surge at the US-Mexico border is likely the worst the situation has been in 20 years. Mayorkas, who has refused to call the situation a “crisis,” said in a statement that “[w]e are on pace to encounter more individuals on the southwest border than we have in the last 20 years.” The statement referred to the surge as a “difficult situation,” but said his department is working to handle it “successfully.” Mayorkas disclosed new information, including that most unaccompanied minors housed in cramped detention camps have family already in...

The First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution guarantees free speech to all private citizens. But as conservatives have had to learn the hard way, our First Amendment protections are not safe in the era of Big Tech. Recently, we’ve witnessed unprecedented efforts on the part of Big Tech monopolies to coordinate the censorship of conservative political views. Just recently, Amazon Web Services, Google, and Apple conspired to boot the conservative-friendly social media app Parler off the web. And every day, more stories emerge of conservatives and Christians who find their social media accounts suspended, banned or otherwise censored for voicing...

Myanmar Regime Seizes Bank Accounts of Soros' Open Society Foundation The military regime has seized control of the bank accounts of billionaire George Soros’ Open Society Foundation (OSF) in Myanmar and announced that it will take legal action against the foundation, which is accused of violating restrictions on the activities of such organizations. On Monday, military-controlled MRTV announced that the military had issued arrest warrants for 11 staff members of OSF Myanmar, including its head and deputy head, on suspicion of giving financial support to the civil disobedience movement against the military junta. The regime also claimed that the world’s...

By now, most know what the cancel culture is: Something you did in your past will be used to silence, stop, and “cancel” you. Whether it’s Mike Lindell, whose pillow company lost many retailers after he publicly questioned the election, or the CEO of Goya Foods, Bob Unanue, who upset people when he simply thanked President Trump, the cancel culture doesn’t tolerate opposing views. So much for being “tolerant.”Do you see the irony? The cancel culture protects Cuties on Netflix and loves Cardi B lyrics, but they can’t stand Bible verses, worship songs, or views that oppose them. Dr. Seuss...

Republican Illinois Rep. Adam Kinzinger’s office offered an internship to a Russian immigrant beauty queen who met Kinzinger through her internship application. She then dated Kinzinger for about four months and sent Kinzinger racy photos at his request, according to extensive communications between the woman and a NATIONAL FILE source. The woman, Olga Kambod, provided sexually charged and volatile 2018 text messages between herself and a phone number that matches Kinzinger’s former phone number on publicly available records. Kambod also provided emails from Kinzinger’s congressional staff discussing internship duties. Rep. Adam Kinzinger, a frequent critic of the America First movement,...

What happened Tuesday should have been a good day for investors in the cruise ship sector. Bright and early this morning, analysts at investment bank JPMorgan raised their price targets across the industry, predicting that within a year, Carnival Corporation (NYSE:CCL) (NYSE:CUK) stock will sell for $33 a share, Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings (NYSE:NCLH) will rise to $36, and Royal Caribbean (NYSE:RCL) will hit $110 a share.

Testing in the lab at Sanford Burnham Prebys Medical Discovery Institute. Credit: Sanford Burnham Prebys Medical Discovery Institute Phase 2 clinical trial could begin immediately for clofazimine, an FDA-approved drug on WHO’s List of Essential Medicines. A Nature study authored by scientists at Sanford Burnham Prebys Medical Discovery Institute and the University of Hong Kong shows that the leprosy drug clofazimine, which is FDA approved and on the World Health Organization’s List of Essential Medicines, exhibits potent antiviral activities against SARS-CoV-2 and prevents the exaggerated inflammatory response associated with severe COVID-19. Based on these findings, a Phase 2 study evaluating...

The ABC, CBS and NBC evening news shows have been behaving like President Joe Biden’s drones by shielding his administration from any news that could damage his image on the economy. Bloomberg News released a story yesterday headlined, “Biden Eyes First Major Tax Hike Since 1993 in Next Economic Plan.” The story said that, unlike the massive $1.9 pork-filled stimulus package, “the next initiative, which is expected to be even bigger, won’t rely just on government debt as a funding source.” Rather, “key advisers are now making preparations for a package of measures that could include an increase in both...

Sports Illustrated has revealed the first ever black and Asian transgender model to grace the pages of its annual Swimsuit Issue. Though the iconic magazine doesn't launch until July, the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue Instagram account has been unveiling one model a day throughout the month of March — and this morning, they made waves with the announcement that Chicago-born model, dancer, actor, and activist Leyna Bloom, 27, is joining the likes of Lais Ribeiro and Josephine Skriver in the 2021 edition.

LIMA, OH—As part of an ever-progressing military, a new feature has been added to the next line of M1 Abrams tanks: a diaper changing table. “The horrors of war have often been unfriendly to the busy mom on the go,” said Department of Defense spokesman Clayton Brown. “Our mission is to change things so pregnant women and working moms all feel welcome in our quagmires in the Middle East and have opportunities to blow up the locals with depleted uranium shells.” In addition to the changing table, each new tank will also be slightly larger in order to fit a...

The Biden administration missed its self-imposed deadline to issue temporary mask standards for workplaces as the Occupation Safety and Health Administration tries to determine whether an emergency order is needed to protect workers from the coronavirus, according to a report. President Biden in an executive order on Jan. 21 directed the government “consider whether any emergency temporary standards on COVID-19, including with respect to masks in the workplace, are necessary, and if such standards are determined to be necessary, issue them by March 15, 2021.”

<p>A progressive mayor’s proposal to abolish the police department of a small city in upstate New York is sparking concerns among residents that the reform effort will exacerbate a recent spike in violent crime, the town’s former police chief told National Review.</p>

Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) issued a sharp warning from the Senate floor on Tuesday, warning of a “scorched-Earth Senate” in response to Democrats pressing to end the filibuster. “Does anyone really believe the American people were voting for an entirely new system of government by electing Joe Biden to the White House and a 50-50 Senate?” McConnell asked his colleagues, emphasizing the Senate is split and Democrats only have the edge due to the party occupying the White House.

Boulder, Colorado’s ban on modern sporting rifles and magazines that can hold more than ten rounds is a violation of the state’s firearm preemption laws, according to a district judge in the city that declared the local law null and void on Friday. The gun and magazine ban was enacted by the Boulder City Council in the summer of 2018, and has been the subject of multiple lawsuits challenging its legality. This particular case was brought by two Boulder residents who challenged the authority of the city council to enact or enforce the gun ban, given the fact that the...

Hell freezing over? A CNN host on Tuesday actually pressed a Biden administration member over its shortcomings on the border crisis! CNN's John Berman is among the snarkiest of the liberal media's Republican haters. Just yesterday, we caught Berman parroting the Democrat line on the border crisis, saying the border crisis is "all the more reason to pass comprehensive immigration reform. So it was beyond surprising when on New Day, Berman actually held the Biden border honcho's feet to the fire over their botched handling of the border crisis. Talking to Biden border coordinator Roberta Jacobson, the journalist demanded, "The...
