With all this screeching by Liberals and Democrats that DOGE headed by private citizen Elon Musk is somehow "unconstitutional," they conveniently FORGET about the War Production Board, an agency established by EXECUTIVE ORDER by Franklin Delano Roosevelt during WWII. Here is a list of the members of the War Production Board which consists of NO elected officials. This information comes from WIKIPEDIA so no one can claim the source is somehow "right-wing":William Beverly Murphy, president and CEO of Campbell Soup Company Charles E. Wilson, president of General Electric T. S. Fitch, president and CEO of Washington Steel Corporation Faustin Johnson...

The Democrats claim that there is a constitutional crisis taking place because Donald Trump is exerting control over the federal government. To that end, they’ve turned to activist judges to issue emergency injunctions freezing all Trump’s actions to end waste, abuse, and fraud in the government. However, 157 years ago, the Supreme Court laid down the law: Managing the federal government is the president’s job, and courts may not interfere. The only option is impeachment, not legal action, for this is a political issue. As a lawyer, you’d think I would have known about the Supreme Court’s 1867 decision in...

Germany’s ambassador to the United States reportedly warned that Donald Trump’s incoming administration will undermine “basic democratic principles” and seek a “redefinition of the constitutional order.” While European leaders have been relatively muted in their response to the re-election of Donald Trump, particularly compared to the hysterical reaction to his victory in 2016, the panic has apparently merely been confined to backrooms rather than in public. According to Reuters, a confidential document briefing Berlin on the incoming administration signed by Ambassador to the U.S. Andreas Michaelis warned that the incoming administration would seek “maximum disruption” and usher in “a redefinition...

Germany's ambassador to the United States has warned that the incoming Trump administration will rob U.S. law enforcement and the media of their independence and hand big tech companies "co-governing power", according to a confidential document seen by Reuters. The briefing document, dated Jan. 14 and signed by Ambassador Andreas Michaelis, describes Donald Trump's agenda for his second White House term as one of "maximum disruption" that will bring about "a redefinition of the constitutional order - maximum concentration of power with the president at the expense of Congress and the federal states." "Basic democratic principles and checks and balances...

resident Biden rejected the idea that commanders in chief are immune from prosecution for “official acts” during his final Oval Office speech on Wednesday, an apparent parting shot at President-elect Donald Trump. ”We need to amend the Constitution to make clear that no president, no president, is immune from crimes that he or she commits while in office,” Biden said. “The president’s power is not unlimited,” the 82-year-old outgoing commander in chief argued. “It’s not absolute, and it shouldn’t be.” Last July, the Supreme Court ruled that presidents are afforded absolute immunity from prosecution for “official acts” undertaken as commander...

Democratic strategist James Carville said Monday on MSNBC’s “The Beat” that he and host Ari Melber will be arrested if former President Donald Trump wins the election. Carville said, “Trump goes out, and he says I’m going to use the military to arrest my political enemies, and then Mike Johnson’s and Lindsey Graham, and the Wall Street Journal editorial pages say oh no, that’s not what he meant and then he comes back and says yeah, that’s exactly what I meant. You know what’ll happen? You pointed it out; if he wins, he will say, I told people I was...

Former Rep. Liz Cheney (R-WY) said Sunday on NBC’s “Meet the Press” that she did not have “faith” House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) will certify the 2024 presidential election. Moderator Kristen Welker said, “President Biden said he does not know if there will be a peaceful transfer of power in 2025. You just heard how the House Speaker answered my question about how he would certify the election results. Do you have faith that the election will be free and fair and there will be a peaceful transfer of power.”

Democrats are no longer coy about their disdain for constitutional freedoms. They used to put on a show, pretending to be champions of free speech and swearing that they didn't want to take our guns. Biden era leftists have abandoned all pretense and now sneer at freedoms that many of us hold dear. After they leveraged COVID panic to help usher Team Biden into the Oval Office.. they got tired of carrying on the fiction. Biden's puppet masters have been flying one freak flag after another .. Ketanji Brown Jackson is Joe Biden's legacy on the court .. a real...

After nearly six full days of debate, South Carolina’s Senate approved a Constitutional Carry bill on Thursday by a vote of 28-15, removing the last major hurdle for the state to become the 28th in the nation to recognize the right to bear arms without the need for a government-issued permission slip. The bill, which was already approved by the House last year, still needs to return to the lower chamber for a final concurrence vote since the Senate did amend the legislation before giving it their stamp of approval. The amendment would allow people 18 and older to carry...

The White House dismissed a request by House Oversight Chairman James Comer (R-KY) seeking proof of President Joe Biden providing a loan to his brother James Biden amid concerns that the commander-in-chief may have profited off his family’s influence-peddling schemes. Richard Sauber, special counsel to the president, wrote back to Comer on Friday in response to a letter from October 26 that sought documentation underlying a $200,000 check James Biden wrote to Joe Biden that was labeled as a “loan repayment” in 2018. The letter “concerns a financial transaction between two family members at a time when both individuals were...

California Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) called Thursday for a constitutional amendment to impose gun control on the country, claiming that his proposal “leaves the 2nd Amendment intact.” NEW: I’m proposing the 28th Amendment to the United States Constitution to help end our nation’s gun violence crisis. The American people are sick of Congress’ inaction. The 28th will enshrine 4 widely supported gun safety freedoms — while leaving the 2nd Amendment intact: 1)… pic.twitter.com/ZJ7fyfH0Cf — Gavin Newsom (@GavinNewsom) June 8, 2023 The Second Amendment states that the right to bear arms “shall not be infringed,” so it is unclear how Newsom’s...

The social justice movement isn’t something to scoff at. While it’s filled to the brim with ignorance, stupidity, and childish behavior, it weaponized these qualities into a force that is capable of infecting any institution it comes across. Logic and sense are disregarded and its enemies are either shouted down, assaulted, or even killed. When that does happen, you can watch as the infected institutions do their best to show their support for the thugs and killers that did the deed. Recent events make that clear. ... Meanwhile, a continued declaration keeps ringing out from the left and it should...

‘Save Our Democracy’ is the new ‘Russia Collusion.’At this point, it would save everyone time if Democrats could simply point to a policy agenda item that isn’t going to save democracy — if such a thing exists.If Republicans vote, they are killing democracy. If they don’t vote, they are killing democracy. The only way to “save democracy,” writes The Washington Post’s Max Boot, is to empower one-party rule — a position that probably sounds counterintuitive to anyone with a middle-school education. “Now you need to vote to literally save democracy again,” contends President Joe Biden, or we will lose our...

Three judges appointed by former President Donald Trump handed down an astonishing decision on Wednesday, effectively holding that the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, the federal agency charged with protecting consumers from a wide range of predatory activity by lenders and other financial services, is unconstitutional and must be stripped of its authority. The decision by the conservative United States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit relies on a novel reading of an obscure provision of the Constitution, and is entirely at odds with a Supreme Court decision that rejects the Fifth Circuit’s reading of that provision. This is not...

In two decades, Constitutional Carry has progressed from an ideal pursued by Second Amendment activists and Constitutionalists, to a reality in half of the states of the United States. In 2002, only Vermont had Constitutional Carry. Constitutional Carry exists where most citizens can exercise the right to carry a loaded handgun in most public places, openly or concealed, without special government permission or the worry of being arrested.Constitutional Carry was the state of the law when the Second Amendment was ratified in 1791. This was the only “Regulation” that meets the Nation’s historical tradition. Vermont has 1/4 of one percent...
