The diversity-visa jihadi has rolled over the Democrats’ audacious plan to win a no-strings amnesty for millions of young DACA illegals during the Christmas budget fight by using activists and skewed polls to bluff and intimidate GOP leaders.That power-grab was first blocked by President Donald Trump’s October 8 demand that any amnesty complies with his poll-tested list of immigration principles. On Nov. 1, he dramatically stepped up the pressure, telling the media directly that he wanted a quick end to the diversity visa lottery and chain migration: So we want to immediately work with Congress on the Diversity Lottery Program, on terminating it,...

A decade ago today, on 31 August 2015, Angela Merkel made the unilateral decision to open Europe’s borders. The rallying cry of the German Chancellor has gone down in history: ‘Wir schaffen das’ – ‘We can do this’. If we can’t, she added, ‘if Europe fails on the question of refugees, then it won’t be the Europe we wished for’. Merkel was motivated by conflict in the Middle East, notably in Syria and Iraq, but her invitation to seek refuge in Europe was seized on by many others. Of the estimated 1.3 million people who flooded into Europe in 2015,...

On Wednesday’s broadcast of the Fox News Channel’s “Will Cain Show,” former Border Patrol Chief Raul Ortiz stated that he would put the estimated population of illegal immigrants in the U.S. as “much higher than 20 million people.”Host Will Cain asked, “I’ve seen varying figures. The one that’s always quoted is something like 20 million illegal immigrants in the United States. … Do you have any sense, how big is the population of illegal immigrants in the United States?” Ortiz answered, “I would estimate it’s much higher than 20 million people. When you think about, just even over the last...

Russia is going after TV series Game of Thrones, Sex and the City, and the Harry Potter franchise in an effort to purge what it claims is the promotion of "childfree ideology." The development comes months after Russia passed a bill banning what state-run news wires describe as the "public propaganda of the ideas of voluntarily choosing not to have children." It comes as Russia grapples with a dwindling birth rate and as President Vladimir Putin scrambles to encourage women to have children.

Much of human history only makes sense in light of the persistent influence of eschatology — a word of Greek origin that means “the study of last things.” This is because many of the most significant historical movements and events have been driven, in one way or another, by eschatological beliefs. The Second World War was motivated in part by Hitler’s promise of a “thousand-year Reich,” an idea that mirrored Christianity’s prophecy of a future “Millennial Kingdom” following the Battle of Armageddon. A recent Pew Research Center survey found that roughly 4 in 10 American adults believe that we are...

Democrats are trying to prevent immigration enforcement via “an extraordinary amount of individualized adjudication” at a level that “no American citizen” receives, President Donald Trump’s top aide Stephen Miller said.“This isn’t due process — this is called ‘infinity process’ to keep you here forever!” Miller told Newsmax on April 21.Miller’s “Infinity Process” comments echoed President Trump’s message:How can Biden let Millions of Criminals into our Country, totally unchecked and unvetted, with no Legal authority to do so, yet I, in order to make up for this assault to our Nation, am expected to go through a lengthy Legal process, separately,...

Jon Husted recently paid a visit to President-elect Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago home with as rumors speculate he is the top candidate to fill the position. According to state law, Ohio Gov.

Manhattan’s top federal prosecutor announced Monday he plans to resign from his post next month to make way for President-elect Donald Trump’s chosen replacement to lead the powerful office. Damian Williams said he would step down as US attorney for the Southern District of New York on Dec. 13. “Today is a bittersweet day for me,” Williams said in a statement. “It is bitter in the sense that I am leaving my dream job, leading an institution I love that is filled with the finest public servants in the world,” he continued. “It is sweet in that I am confident...

It's an embarrassment of riches for the Republicans these days. Not only did they sweep the House, Senate and White House, but they're also sending many of their best and brightest to serve in the second Donald Trump administration. This leaves many vacancies to be filled, and one of the most important is the Ohio Senate seat vacated by Vice President-elect JD Vance.Vance was elected to the U.S. Senate a mere two years ago, beating Democrat Tim Ryan to replace the retiring Rob Portman (R). Our next vice president spent his brief Senate career in the minority, but his replacement...

Former president Bill Clinton asserted that mass migration was crucial in tackling America’s declining birth rate. So they are now acknowledging the "great replacement" despite gas lighting us by calling it a "conspiracy theory" for years?

An Irish citizen has been moved out of his home by gardaí after receiving death threats from far-right agitators, the Irish Mail on Sunday has learned. Last week, a video was filmed outside Andre Buchanan’s apartment, featuring a bullet and the sound of a gun. This week, Mr Buchanan – a musician who moved to Ireland from Jamaica when he was just nine years old – received a bomb threat on his car. He also featured in a video posted to TikTok by a man who gave his new location away and told his followers he needs to be ‘removed’....

I’ve argued previously that former first lady and twice-failed presidential candidate Hillary Clinton would like one more bite at the apple, and as Biden’s reelection candidacy implodes, her name has popped up once again. Frankly, I’m surprised it’s taken this long.The Hill opinion contributor Pablo O’Hana thinks Rodham Clinton is just the woman who can save the president’s chances:“But who?” The strongest argument against replacing President Joe Biden as the 2024 Democratic nominee is the notion that no suitable successor exists. But there is, and not just a good one but one of the most qualified people ever to run...

Which of the Republican controlled states will remove Biden from the ballot? Does Biden stepping down matter at all? Of what relevance is a current VP assuming the duties of President? Is the DEATH of the NOMINEE (not the current President per se) the only possible way to get some new NOMINEE on the ballot of all 50 states?

Tongues are wagging in Ohio about who might replace JD Vance as U.S. senator should he become vice president in January 2025, which becomes increasingly likely with every passing day. AdvertisementThe Ohio Revised Code gives the governor, in this case Mike "Wear the Mask, Peasant" DeWine, power to appoint a replacement until a special election is held in November 2026. The winner would serve out Vance's term, which ends in 2028.I told my colleague Stephen Kruiser that Ohio is "very cat-fighty." There are political rivalries going back decades, loyalty tests, and enough backstabbing to rival the mob (without the murders......

Democratic strategist James Carville said former Presidents Bill Clinton and Barack Obama should direct discussions on who should replace President Biden on the ticket. “Mark my words: Joe Biden is going to be out of the 2024 presidential race. Whether he is ready to admit it or not. His pleas on Monday to congressional Democrats for support will not unite the party behind him,” Mr. Carville wrote in an op-ed in The New York Times Monday. He added that the party shouldn’t just shift gears to nominate Vice President Kamala Harris or another Democrat; the process should be “out in...

It looks like Joe Biden is refusing to step down from the Democrat presidential ticket. Putting aside the legal issues and deadlines resulting from late ballot changes and the undesirability of Kamala Harris taking over, there are problems with removing Biden by force. Let’s take a look at them:1. Removing Biden at the convention: The delegates are already pledged to Biden. This would require 300 delegate signatures and would be very messy at best, with Michelle Obama (assuming she is their savior) having to compete with other potential candidates. An alternative plan, still very messy and still subject to the...

Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer (D) said in a new interview that she doesn’t like seeing her name mentioned as a possible replacement for President Biden if he leaves the presidential campaign. “It’s a distraction more than anything,” she told The Associated Press. “I don’t like seeing my name in articles like that because I’m totally focused on governing and campaigning for the ticket.” The governor has been a top name floated to replace Biden on the Democratic ticket should he end his reelection campaign. A rising number of critics has asked to step down, amid concerns over his age and...
