President Joe Biden finally called the border situation a 'crisis' on Saturday after playing his first round of golf since taking office. He reiterated to reporters while coming off the course that his administration is committed to raising the refugee cap, claiming those who would address that issue were busy 'working on the crisis that ended up on the border with young people' instead. 'We couldn't do two things at once,' Biden insisted. 'And now we are going to increase the number.'

I am a huge fan of Star Trek which chronicled the journey of the Starship USS Enterprise, on its five-year mission: “To boldly go where no man has gone before.” Captain James T. Kirk was on the bridge with Commander Spock and the crew, exploring the galaxy and completing missions in the 23rd Century. Kirk was an amazing leader who exhibited courage, tenacity and charisma when confronting unknown dangers in deep space. The crew knew that Kirk loved the Enterprise, and they respected his leadership decisions. Now if the worst case scenario happened and the Klingons (enemy) were going to...

Guatemala’s president is blaming the Biden administration’s “confusing” messages ​for creating the crisis at the US border — the second leader to make that claim after Mexican President Andrés Manuel López Obrador made similar remarks in March. “I believe that in the first few weeks of the Biden administration, messages were confusing.

We are less than 90 Days into Joe Biden’s Presidency and it seems clear that the United States is no longer prioritizing national security, and this is seen in ways including the administration’s handling of the country’s southern border.As far as the current migrant crisis we face, this unmitigated disaster is a self-inflicted wound that began with Biden publicly disclosing his intent to legalize as many as 11 million illegal aliens in the weeks following his victory in this past November’s election. This reversal in American immigration policy along with his decision to immediately stop construction of border walls and...
