Department of Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson told an audience today that illegal aliens are “not going away” and are “in effect” US citizens. And the DC elites wonder why Donald Trump is winning the Republican primary??? The Washington Examiner reported: The nation’s top immigration officer said that the “11 million” undocumented aliens in the United States are “not going away,” are “in effect” citizens, and added that deporting the few the administration wants out is unpleasant. Jeh Johnson, secretary of Homeland Security, told Harvard University students this week that the administration is focused on its plan to integrate illegals...

So far, the delegate count math has looked good for conservative businessman Donald J. Trump. But now, the GOP establishment is involved, and will stop at nothing to prevent Trump from winning the White House. Now, a bombshell new report shows Cruz is running a “stealth” and “under the radar” campaign to force a contested RNC convention battle in Cleveland, Ohio against Trump and Ohio Governor John Kasich. The goal is to keep Trump from winning on the first ballot, which frees most delegates to pick a new candidate, instead of being tied to their state’s primary/caucus winner. Team Cruz...

Voters for years have occasionally opted to take part in the more interesting primary contest. In some cases, their votes have been “spoilers” — meant to give their party’s candidate a weaker opponent in the general election. That was the case in 2008, when conservative radio talk-show host Rush Limbaugh urged Republicans to vote in the Democratic primary to extend that bruising campaign & attempt to deny Obama the nomination. In Ohio, Republican Chairman Matt Borges said that some of this year’s crossover voting will be caused by affection for Kasich, a two-term governor. In Kasich's 2014 gubernatorial re-election, he...

John Kasich touts Ohio’s comeback story on the campaign trail, saying he brought this Rust Belt state back from the economic brink, creating jobs, slashing tax rates and cutting government spending. The problem is that vision is unrecognizable to many Ohioans, especially those struggling to make it in the state’s gritty urban centers, such as Cleveland, Cincinnati and Toledo — all ranked among the nation’s most economically distressed big cities. Cleveland, host of this summer’s Republican convention, is the No. 1 most economically distressed large city in America, with 53 percent of adults not working, according to an analysis by...

Just watch. Steve Malzberg nails this commentary 100%, and provides audio visual substance to back it up. His comments are about the left planning protests for the rally in Chicago. He provides video clips of Reagan's encounters with protestors.

Chris Wallace interviewed John Kasich on the state of the primary voting in Ohio on Tuesday, March 15 2016.

[...] we've had some people say: "I want to switch to the Trump party"... Youngstown Ohio - About 1,000 Democrats in Mahoning County so far have switched their party affiliation to Republican with election officials saying several did it to vote for Donald Trump, the GOP presidential front-runner. "We are seeing something this election cycle I've never seen before to this degree," said board Chairman Mark Munroe, who's also the county Republican chairman. "Every day I take phone calls or get voice messages from people saying they've been Democrats all their life and they've had it. They want to vote...

Today, Representative John Culberson (TX-07) released the following statement after writing Attorney General Loretta Lynch a letter expressing his opposition to sending Federal funding to sanctuary cities. He urged the Attorney General to change the Federal grant process so that no additional Department of Justice (DOJ) funding is provided to jurisdictions that either refuse to honor Federal detainers, harbor illegal aliens, or refuse to share information about criminal illegal aliens with federal authorities. "Sanctuary city policies across the country prevent State and local law enforcement from notifying the Department of Homeland Security when an illegal alien is released from their...

Ben Ginsberg, Republican attorney, explains the process that would be required for delegates at the Republican convention to select someone other than the party front-runner (Donald Trump).Duration: 7:20

When Governor Jeb Bush Ordered The Jack Boots To Action... Former Governor Jeb Bush has a much more serious eminent domain problem to reconcile than current media reports are discussing. During his tenure as Florida Governor Bush initiated the largest eminent domain private property confiscation in the history of the Sunshine State. Bush's action is now costing the State of Florida hundreds of millions in lawsuits and legal fees. During a period from mid-2000 to January 2006 the Florida Department of Agriculture, at the direction of Governor Jeb Bush, began a program to seize and destroy citrus trees from Florida...

A Maryland high school punished a student for refusing to profess faith in Islam, gave her failing grades for a series of assignments that violated her Christian beliefs then threatened her father with arrest for complaining, a federal lawsuit charges. The suit was filed in U.S. District Court against the Charles County Public Schools in La Plata, Maryland, its board of education, Principal Evelyn Arnold and Vice Principal Shannon Morris by the Thomas More Law Center. [ ] The lawsuit charges that the defendants' "curriculum, practices, policies, actions, procedures, and customs promote the Islamic faith by requiring students to profess...

Two key members of the Oregon militia, who continue to hold the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge in Oregon, say Arizona officials took their children from their homes as an act of revenge. According to a report from the Arizona Republic, Robert "LaVoy" Finicum and Blaine Cooper say federal officials pressured local child protection officials to take custody of their children in retaliation against them for their siege on the wildlife refuge. Cooper, who posts regular updates of the siege on social media, said earlier in the month that child protection services came to his house in Humboldt, Arizona, and took...

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) caught nearly everybody off guard late Wednesday by quietly clearing the path for new legislation to declare war on the self-described Islamic State -- an issue he'd signaled for months he had no interest in touching. McConnell introduced a sweeping authorization for the use of military force, or AUMF, that would give the president new authority to take action against the militant group also known as ISIS or ISIL. It wouldn't put any limits on the duration, geography or use of U.S. ground combat troops in the war, or on the means by which...

Gov. Kasich has a secret. He hides it well as he peddles his plain-spoken, real-deal, son-of-a-mailman sales pitch as a Republican presidential candidate in New Hampshire. The secret is secure with Kasich loyalists. Mr. Kasich is mum about the details, but a left-leaning blog with an emphasis on Ohio and national politics is on the right track. Plunderbund suggests "a scandal begging to be born" is bubbling in the governor's home state. Out-of-state media are oblivious to the disgrace at the Ohio Department of Education. Team Kasich has effectively kept the story under wraps on the campaign trail. [ ]...

This video was taken in Charleston South Carolina on the morning of the GOP debate. Along with RNC head Reince Priebus, Fox's Dana Perino and all of the National Republican Party Leadership were in attendance. Holland Redfield, an RNC committeeman who represents the Virgin Islands is speaking: This was the RNC meeting/convention in South Carolina prior to the debate later in the day. The membership from this entire group apparatus is who comprised the audience. Do the audience responses evident in the debate broadcast make more sense now? Here's an article from Politico: CHARLESTON, S.C. -- A Republican National committeeman...

President Barack Obama is bringing the subprime-mortgage crisis back, fueled by the progressives' political urge to treat borrowed money loans as a "right" that everyone is "entitled" to get, and by the willingness to dismiss mathematical probability as a racist conspiracy. The last time liberals ran this mortgage ponzi-scheme, from 1995 to 2007, they almost crashed the financial system of the entire planet. They managed to largely evade responsibility by pinning the blame on their junior partners -- the banks, the stock-market and the GOP -- and even found political profit in the ensuing panic, so why shouldn't President Obama...

One day after the Wall Street Journal revealed that a dummy U.S. hellfire missile was mistakenly shipped from Europe to Cuba in 2014, the State Department refuses to deny whether or not it was sold to the Cuban government. "I am restricted, under federal law and regulations, from commenting on the specific defense trade, licensing cases and compliance matters," State Department spokesman John Kirby said during a press conference Friday. "What I can say is under the Arms Export Control Act, the State Department licenses both permanent and temporary exports by U.S. companies of regulated defense articles," Kirby added. The...

This morning when I wrote about how important it is to get voters registered for the Republican primary election, I was reminded of an article at the Daily Caller by reporter Chuck Ross that I had set aside just days before Christmas. A cabal of Muslim organizations met at the National Press Club, not to voice their sorrow over San Bernardino, but to announce they will change America at the ballot box and have launched a massive voter registration drive "to use the ballot to fight bigotry." Here is a small portion of the Daily Caller story: A coalition of...
