COVID is a scab that keeps on bleeding
It wasn't the coronavirus pandemic that drove apart the country. It was the bureaucratic class. So it's good news to hear that Sen.

Vance in Munich strikes at core of leftist censorship, tyranny

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez slipping into obscurity, irrelevance
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez mocked border enforcer Tom Homan for saying she may be "in trouble now" for coaching illegals how to avoid deportation, and on social media, she wrote, "MaYbe shE's goiNg to be in TroUble nOw."

Sen. Elizabeth Warren shows why Democrats won’t win

Trump nails it, says God is America’s ‘strength’

President Trump had a very good first week
