Senate confirmation hearings for President-elect Donald Trump’s cabinet nominees began today. Some will sail through. But it is clear that Democrats will try to destroy those nominees who they fear will most aggressively push for reform. At the top of their “hit list” is Pete Hegseth, Trump’s nominee for secretary of defense. There has been a horrible smear campaign directed against Hegseth. And judging from some of the text messages I have gotten, it has been effective even with some Christians. Pete is a Christian. Like us, he is a forgiven sinner. His life is directed by our Lord and… Read More
The hellish wildfires in southern California are still raging. More homes and businesses are being destroyed, and more lives are being lost. The death toll now stands at 24. Politicians in California have plenty of excuses. Climate change tops the list. Meanwhile, the long list of failures caused by gross incompetence at every level of California’s government is shocking. California is entirely run by the left. The woke left controls every center of power in the state. The governor is a liberal Democrat. Liberal Democrats have a supermajority in the state legislature. The mayor of… Read More
Last night, the Supreme Court voted 5 to 4 to reject Donald Trump’s emergency petition to stop his sentencing hearing in Judge Juan Merchan’s kangaroo court. Usually, when the justices vote on whether or not to accept a case or a petition, we aren’t told how the justices voted. But the four justices who wanted to hear the petition wanted it known who they were. They were the four solid conservatives: Thomas, Alito, Gorsuch, and Kavanaugh. So, we know the others who rejected Trump’s petition: Sotomayor, Kagan, Jackson, Roberts, and Barrett. Chief Justice John Roberts seems to have as… Read More
The devastating wildfires raging across southern California got even worse last night. But now the political debate is raging because even on issues like this there are deep divisions about causes and solutions. There are even deep divisions over prayer. Leftists will attack and mock you for offering prayers during times of tragedy. The left’s mantra regarding the fires is “Climate Change! Climate Change! Climate Change! And, by the way, did you know this was caused by climate change?” Here’s the real story.
Members of the media are having what used to be called “the vapors.” That’s when a woman in the 1900s would faint because she was so overwhelmed by everything going on around her. Today, they’re “fainting” left and right, men and women. Why? Well, unlike the mentally challenged puppet who has led us for the last four years, Donald Trump talks like an American! But we’ve been “programmed” to think, “You can’t say that. You can’t do that.” Every other world leader gets up in the morning thinking, “What’s the best thing I can do today for Nigeria?” Or, “What’s the best thing I can do for… Read More
Donald Trump is taking office amid one of the biggest crises any incoming president in modern American history has faced. Meanwhile, Joe Biden is making things worse every day he remains in office. He’s doing this knowing that America faces unbelievable dangers to our national security that threaten our very existence. He seems more interested in punishing the American people and tying Trump in knots than he is in making America safer. Here’s the latest and perhaps the most serious example. Chinese hackers have been causing problems for decades. Most of their previous efforts focused on… Read More
Representatives and senators attended a special joint session of Congress today to certify the Electoral College votes and election of Donald Trump and J.D. Vance. Vice President Kamala Harris presided over the proceedings and declared Trump the winner of the 2024 presidential election. The Electoral College votes were certified on the same day when a vociferous demonstration took place four years ago that the left and their media allies turned into the “biggest attack on democracy” since Pearl Harbor or the Civil War. Fourteen days from today, Donald Trump will stand outside the Capitol… Read More
The first session of the 119th Congress begins today. New senators were sworn in, and Republicans, under Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R-SD), officially took over the chamber. With the Senate leadership already decided, all eyes were on the House of Representatives, where Mike Johnson (R-LA) was fighting to remain speaker. He had Donald Trump’s endorsement, but Thomas Massie (R-KY), Ralph Norman (R-SC), and Keith Self (R-TX) did not vote for Johnson during the roll call vote. That’s a big problem because it takes 218 votes to win the speaker’s gavel, and there are only 219… Read More
2025 is a year many of us hope will be a time of renewal and revival in America. Sadly, it got off to a bad start. A deadly terrorist attack in New Orleans killed more than a dozen people and wounded dozens more, while an attempted attack at the Trump Hotel in Las Vegas injured seven people. Here what we know. The FBI initially claimed that the attack in New Orleans was not “a terrorist event.” New Orleans Police Chief Anne Kirkpatrick was far more forthcoming, stating that the perpetrator, an Army veteran, was “hellbent on creating carnage” and that he also shot two police officers. It… Read More
Donald Trump has been making headlines recently with comments about the Panama Canal and Greenland. Many people are confused by his sudden interest in these countries. He’s addressing these issues in his typical Trumpian way, but his purpose is deadly serious. There is a simple five-letter answer to both: C-H-I-N-A.
Christmas is a time of hope and blessings, a celebration of life and salvation. The Scriptures teach us that children are a blessing from God. It has also been said that the birth of each new child is a sign that God has not yet given up on this world. That was never more true than the night two thousand years ago when the Son of Man was born in Bethlehem; born to bring the hope of salvation and the blessing of eternal life. When the Christ Child came into the world, His cry pierced the night and split all of human history in half. During a sermon in 1926, Reverend James Allan Francis… Read More
Here’s great news for Christmas: The Democrat Party is in turmoil! Politico reports that a left-wing organization conducted an election post mortem with three focus groups to try to learn more about why voters rejected the Democrat Party. The effort concentrated on three groups of voters: young men in battleground states who switched from Biden in 2020 to Trump in 2024; voters in battleground states who switched from Biden in 2020 but didn’t vote at all in 2024; and blue state voters who previously voted for Democrats, third-party candidates, or didn’t vote in 2020 but voted for Trump… Read More
Being president of the United States is not an easy job. It is a very difficult job, and we all knew Joe Biden wasn’t up to it. Now reports from the New York Times, the Wall Street Journal, and others show that the situation was much worse than we thought. The Journal points out that during the 2020 primaries, Jill Biden actually campaigned more in Iowa than Joe did. Here’s another jarring fact: Biden has only held nine cabinet meetings in four years. They were afraid to let the cabinet secretaries see Biden’s decline. Donald Trump held 25 cabinet meetings during his first four years. I… Read More
Funding for the federal government runs out tomorrow. Congressional leaders have been scrambling to cobble together a short-term spending bill to fund the government through March. But as details of the 1,500-page stopgap spending bill began to emerge, conservatives were furious. Then Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy started reading the bill, and all hell broke loose. Donald Trump didn’t like it either. Trump and J.D. Vance issued a joint statement opposing the bill. Vance went to Capitol Hill late last night to discuss options with Speaker Mike Johnson and other GOP leaders, who confirmed… Read More
Members of the Electoral College met yesterday to cast their votes for president and vice president. Donald Trump won the vote 312 to 226. As you may recall from high school or college civics classes, the November popular vote does not formally elect the president. It does, however, decide a slate of electors, individuals chosen by the state political parties. The electors pledge to vote for the presidential candidate who wins the popular vote in each state. The electors meet in mid-December, but not in one place. They meet in their respective state capitals to formally cast their votes… Read More
Several three-letter agencies just issued a joint statement essentially dismissing concerns about the unidentified mystery drones flying over New Jersey. Okay, now I’m really worried. Here’s the main point from the Department of Defense (DOD), Department of Homeland Security (DHS), Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), and Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI): “We assess that the sightings to date include a combination of lawful commercial drones, hobbyist drones, and law enforcement drones, as well as manned fixed-wing aircraft, helicopters, and stars mistakenly reported as drones… Read More
There was no end to the drone drama over the weekend. Nor was there an end to the stupidity coming from the Biden administration. By the way, here’s a little history on this phenomenon. On October 12th, the Wall Street Journal reported that unidentified drones flying in formation swarmed a critical military base in Virginia for 17 days straight. It’s shocking that our government tolerated this for 17 days. Just as shocking is the fact that we only learned about this bizarre event more than ten months after it occurred in December 2023. Coincidentally or not, they were taking place over… Read More
Donald Trump is coming into office with a 55% approval rating. Americans are optimistic about Trump’s second term and say he has a mandate to enact his agenda. Maybe we can all work together, right? WRONG! What kind of president, on his way out the door, would do everything he possibly could to stop his successor from securing our border? Joe Biden, apparently. When Biden occupied the White House, he immediately stopped construction of the border wall. Tons of steel barriers were left unused on the ground, allowing millions of illegal aliens, including criminals and terrorists, to pour… Read More
One of the unanswered questions regarding January 6th is how many FBI “assets” were in the crowd on Capitol Hill that day. Director Christopher Wray has repeatedly refused to answer that question. We found out today from the Justice Department inspector general. Here’s a headline from the fake news: “FBI Didn’t Deploy Undercover Agents On Jan. 6, Watchdog Report Finds, Undercutting Conspiracy Theories.” Now here’s the actual truth: There were 26 FBI confidential human sources (CHS) or informants in the crowd.
Two shocking reports were just released that should infuriate every American. Taken together, they expose the degree of politicization of key agencies and why President-elect Donald Trump cannot appoint “business as usual” nominees to lead our intelligence and security agencies. The first report came from the bipartisan task force investigating the assassination attempts against Donald Trump. While the entire report is disturbing, two issues really stand out. On the attempt in Butler, Pennsylvania, Rep. Jason Crow, the ranking Democrat on the task force, said that even after all this… Read More
The man who murdered United Healthcare’s CEO last week was the valedictorian of an elite private high school and an Ivy League graduate. He is also a Marxist who hates American free enterprise. This coward assassinated Brian Thompson, the father of two, by shooting him in the back. Everyone should condemn this act of cold-blooded murder. But a disgusting number of leftists, including some in the media, tried to turn the murderer into a hero. Some said this assassination was long overdue. Others called for more assassinations of corporate CEOs. One so-called “journalist,” Taylor Lorenz,… Read More
For more than a year now, drones have been surveilling U.S. military bases all over the country. Sometimes it even happens for days. More recently, a “cluster” of drones was spotted flying over Bedminster Golf Club, where Donald Trump often stays. They have also been seen over Staten Island, Philadelphia, and U.S. military bases in England. I thought we had an entire government department that was responsible for our country’s security. What is the name of that department again? Oh, right – the Department of Homeland Security. Shouldn’t they be telling us something? I know they are tied… Read More
President-elect Donald Trump made his support for Pete Hegseth absolutely clear this morning. On his Truth Social media platform, Trump wrote: “Pete Hegseth is doing very well. His support is strong and deep, much more so than the Fake News would have you believe. . . He will be a fantastic, high energy, Secretary of Defense, one who leads with charisma and skill. Pete is a WINNER, and there is nothing that can be done to change that!!!” President Trump is right. A new poll found that Republican voters support Hegseth’s nomination by a whopping 68% to 15%. Any senators still on the… Read More
Everyone knows Donald Trump’s campaign slogan – America First. For Trump, it’s more than just a slogan. His actions always put our country and our people first. Joe Biden has got a new slogan. He’s putting Angola first. That’s right – Angola. A notoriously corrupt African country. And it is, in fact, a country, not a city, as Biden called it during his speech there. Biden announced that American taxpayers – you and me – are giving $1 billion to help the people of Angola who have been “displaced from their homes” because of climate change. Biden says the people of Angola are suffering… Read More
Donald Trump is on a roll! He’s not even president yet, and he is already racking up major accomplishments. As we previously reported, Trump put Canada and Mexico on notice that they had better take serious steps to secure their borders and stop the flow of illegal aliens and deadly drugs into America. If they failed to act accordingly, Trump threatened to impose stiff tariffs on both countries. Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau immediately flew to Mar-a-Lago to try to satisfy the president-elect. According to sources who joined both leaders for dinner, Trump read Trudeau the riot… Read More
While you were enjoying turkey over the Thanksgiving holiday, Joe Biden was the real “turkey.” For the second year in a row, Biden issued a Thanksgiving proclamation that totally left out God and, thus, the entire history of our country. That leftists Barack Obama and Joe Biden are the only presidents to omit God from Thanksgiving proclamations is proof that the culture war is taken very seriously by the neo-Marxist left in America. After Biden issued the traditional pardons for the White House turkeys, he gave one of the broadest “full and unconditional” pardons ever issued to his son… Read More
Over the weekend, dozens of migrant children showed up at the Texas border. Among them was a two-year-old girl who was all alone. The girl had a note with a first name and a phone number. She told immigration officers that she was looking for her mother and father, who were already in our country. Meanwhile, another migrant caravan of at least 1,500 people is heading north to the U.S. border. They are hoping to reach the border and be admitted by the Biden/Harris administration before Donald Trump is inaugurated on January 20th. Reacting to this news, President-elect Donald Trump issued… Read More
The neo-Marxist left does not like America. As I have noted before, you don’t “fundamentally transform” something you love. The things you love you want to preserve and protect. I was reminded about this as we begin Thanksgiving week. President Joe Biden hasn’t issued his Thanksgiving proclamation yet, but no matter what he says this year, he can’t make up for last year’s proclamation, which was full of lies. Biden became only the second president in our history to issue a Thanksgiving proclamation that did not mention God. But to completely avoid God, Biden had to lie about our history.
All the left-wing politicians and pundits who were furious about Donald Trump’s nomination of Matt Gaetz certainly were celebrating when Gaetz withdrew his name. Their celebration was short-lived. Within hours, Trump announced that former Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi would be his choice to lead the Justice Department. Heads at MSNBC started exploding. Here’s how a MSNBC commentator put it: “Pam Bondi is what I said we should fear because she is competent. We may not agree with her ideologically, but she knows how to do this job. . . Pam Bondi knows what she is doing about… Read More
Former Rep. Matt Gaetz withdrew his nomination to be attorney general today, saying that his confirmation “was unfairly becoming a distraction to the critical work of the Trump/Vance Transition.” I’m disappointed that we won’t get to see Gaetz confronting senators, both Democrat and Republican, during his confirmation hearing. We’ll stay on top of this development and let you know who may be the next nominee to lead the Justice Department. But don’t accept the argument that the nominee must be someone with Ivy League degrees and a long resume of government legal experience. The Justice… Read More
