Recently there has been talk in the news about Biden forgiving student loans. Keep in mind that he will only be able to forgive government student loans, all those others with private student loans get screwed. Responsible people who paid off their loans will also get punished.

In recent days, new details have emerged about the unprecedented raid on the former president’s Florida home. Mar-A-Lago, Trump’s Florida mansion, was raided by the FBI on Monday. According to reports, the raid was part of an investigation into whether Trump took classified documents from the White House and stored them at his mansion. A safe at Trump’s home was broken into by federal agents in search of documents the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) wants. There were 15 boxes of classified information seized by the agents, but they did not disclose what the boxes contained. Mulvaney, who served...

This is a message that the p.c. crowd — in the media, in the universities – needs to hear again and again, because they don’t get it, especially when a Presidential candidate (Warren) announces “her” pronouns on the debate stage, and a teacher is fired for not using the student’s preferred pronouns. It is not enough, the argument goes, to have pronouns of two genders, when there are so many other genders. We need more pronouns! Can’t keep up Along with pronoun enforcement, duplicitous, contemptible euphemisms, another key element of politically correct language, continue to proliferate. I can’t keep up.

The war in Ukraine is in its sixth month, and there’s no end in sight. Here’s what we know… Almost everything you heard about the war in Ukraine from U.S. media over the course of March, April and May was a lie. You heard that Putin was losing the war. You heard that Russians had poor training and low morale and were deserting in droves. You heard that Ukrainians were destroying Russian armor in large numbers to blunt the Russian advance. None of this was true. In fact, Russian troops have achieved major victories in Mariupol, Kherson, Severodonetsk, Lysychansk and...

A politician who makes more money than a little over 80 percent of Americans is singing the blues about how tough life has become. The comments came on the Instagram account of Democratic Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York, who makes $174,000 a year as a member of Congress, along with the perks of office. “It’s insanely expensive, there is no stipend or per diem for it, and you’re not allowed to write it off even though your job forces you to have it,” she said, according to BizPac Review. “This creates real class dynamics in the House. Many sleep...

President Trump on Monday responded to RINO Liz Cheney’s interview with ABC’s Jon Karl in which she suggested the January 6 Committee will recommend charges against Trump.Trump ripped Cheney in a July 4 post to his Truth Social page.“Warmongering and despicable human being Liz Cheney, who is hated by the great people of Wyoming (down 35!), keeps saying, over and over again, that HER Fake Unselect Committee may recommend CRIMINAL CHARGES against a President of the United States who got more votes than any sitting President in history. Even the Dems didn’t know what she was talking about! Why doesn’t...

Thank God for truth, divine law and our inherited common sense. A nation built upon lies, fraud and ulterior motives has never lasted. People who betray their sworn oaths to honestly serve their fellow man do great harm to their fellow man. And unfortunately, citizens who are innocent, naive, self-indulgent, distracted and disengaged from the process of self-governance will suffer greatly as wayward governments run by narcissistic politicians collapse under decades of compounded corruption. We become enslaved by our lack of knowledge, until such time we find the courage to escape our captors. The controlling minority of politicians in our...

A Twitter pal compared this to FDR visiting American soldiers during the Battle of the Bulge. Jonathan Last calls it literally Churchillian, since Churchill also made a point of visiting the front repeatedly to remind his men that their leaders hadn’t forgotten them or their sacrifice.That’s important at this stage of the war, now that Kiev and Kharkiv have been liberated while Ukrainian troops in the Donbas are going through hell. Eighty percent of the country, including the capital, is facing nothing more than occasional airstrikes. Businesses are open, embassies are operating, life has regained a semblance of normalcy. The...

A teen who plowed over a mother and her 8-month-old infant was sentenced to “juvenile probation camp” thanks to Marxist Los Angeles District Attorney George Gascon. Venice, California – In August 2021, a driver, who was 16 at the time, plowed over a mother and her infant. The mother, identified as “Rachel,” was pushing her infant in a stroller down an alleyway when the teen sped up in a stolen vehicle and ran over her. “I thought those were the last moments of our lives; we were dead,” the mother, who asked to be identified only as Rachel, wrote in...

Told you so. The U.S. and NATO have been lying about what is actually taking place on the ground in Ukraine. For those not familiar with my early writings on the actual situation, go back a look at my previous articles written in March– Is Russia on the Ropes in Ukraine? and Update on the Military Situation in Ukraine.

More inspiring words from Kamala Harris. Kamala Harris on Friday delivered remarks at the 90th Annual Meeting of the US Conference of Mayors in Reno, Nevada. Harris told the mayors it’s time to push for stricter gun laws as she rattled off the usual Democrat-Marxist talking points. “We need to take action. And we know it is even more clear this day, just after the massacre of those 19 babies in Uvalde, after the killing just two days ago in Tulsa of 4 people, and after the countless lives lost to gun violence every day on streets across America,” Harris...

.... So the claim that NATO officers were also captured is false. If any NATO officer was captured, again – you can be sure that the Russians would have paraded them on TV. ...

The MSM propaganda is collapsing… Ukrainian soldiers refuse to fight in Severodonetsk Ukrainian soldiers refuse to fight in Severodonetsk. Picture via Youtube video And it seems that the surrender of the Asov soldiers in Mariupol has driven down the moral of the Ukrainian troops currently fighting against Russians in other battles, especially in the Dombass… Already on May 16th, the Ukrainian 1st battalion of 1st company of 115th Brigade stated that they weren’t able to carry out the orders of their leaders due to poor resources, lack of fire support and lack of weapons. Yesterday, Ukrainian 3rd Battalion of the...

The realization is hitting home for many people that the crises now hitting the United States are not simply one-off events. The infant formula outage, rising fuel prices, supply chain collapse, authoritarian censorship and now a wave of mass shootings over the weekend — they all point to the systemic collapse of western society as a whole. We are watching the downfall of western civilization as we know it. The rule of law is dead. Elections are rigged. Free speech is disallowed and a criminally corrupt government now runs an actual Ministry of Truth “disinformation” board. “Science” is a total...

Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee announced Tuesday that she tested positive for COVID-19, despite being fully vaccinated and receiving booster shots. “Congresswoman Sheila Jackson Lee tested positive for COVID,” her official Twitter account noted on Tuesday. “She is fully vaccinated and has received her boosters.” Evidently, the multiple jabs of COVID-19 inoculation did nothing to immunize the Texas Democrat from contracting of the virus nor did it stop Jackson from urging the public to get more shots. Statement: Congresswoman Sheila Jackson Lee tested positive for COVID. She is fully vaccinated and has received her boosters. She encourages everyone to get tested...

President Joe Biden should do an ad for his energy policies ala Game of Thrones, “Bundle up! Winter is Coming!” Since Biden was installed as President in January 2021, natural gas futures prices are UP 216% and heating oil is up 199%. The average price of home electricity has SOARED under Biden, as has the prices of many things. Fortunately for Biden and Congress, they live in well-heated (and air-conditioned) digs in the DC area and are not exposed to the damage done by Biden’s executive orders on energy.

The same leftists who claimed social media isn’t censoring conservatives are melting down over Elon Musk’s decision to buy Twitter. Elon Musk purchased Twitter for $44 billion dollars last week and the left is not taking it well. Musk has stated that he believes ‘free speech’ on social media should match the law of the country. The vermin at CNN and MSNBC are freaking out and openly admitting they do not believe in free speech. NBC’s Mehdi Hasan lashed out at Elon Musk and asserted that all Republicans are Nazis. “If [the “neo-Nazi faction” of the GOP expands in November],...

Black Lives Matter is dusting off its flags and signs and once again stopping traffic to honor the latest moron who chose to ignore the cops and got himself shot. Patrick Lyoya, a black man, was pulled over because the car he was driving had the wrong license plate, which is frequently indicative of a stolen car. Lyoya ignored over a dozen police commands, including one telling him to get back in his car, stop resisting, and drop the police officer’s taser, which he had wrestled away from a Grand Rapids, Mich., policeman. At one point, the police officer was...

We all get that political strategists like to cheerlead for their party. Some might even say that it’s their job. I, however, think that a good strategist is willing to see and speak the truth. If their party is failing, they aren’t doing anyone any favors by pretending things are going well. Which brings me to Democratic strategist Donna Brazile, who appeared on ABC’s This Week on Sunday and gave the most laughable assessment of the upcoming midterms I’ve seen. According to Brazile, the GOP is “essentially running on fumes” from allegations of voter fraud in 2020, while Democrats “are...

I was running a YouTube channel called "Professor 219" throughout 2021. This was 100% me, sitting at my desk at home, ranting into a webcam much like Dan Bongino, Ben Shapiro or Michael Knowles, regarding the stupidity, hypocrisy, corruption and generally unconstitutional behavior of the left, their political party and the media minions who serve them. I do teach in real life, but I'm not a professor. I teach gifted 13- and 14-year-olds for a Catholic diocese in an after-school enrichment program. I'm 62 years old, and I have a pretty strong amount of knowledge regarding a lot of different...
