The left and its national security problem
For whatever reason, Democrats don't give the impression of caring a whit about the state of national security -- which, if you carry that to its natural conclusion, would mean they don't care much about the safety and security of American citizens, either. How else to describe their dug-in resistance to the border security America so desperately needs? Published December 12, 2018
Caravan migrants show selves to be bunch of blackmailers
A bunch of migrants from Central America reportedly sent a list of demands to the U.S. Consulate in Tijuana that went like this: Pay us $50,000, and we'll go home. Don't pay us, and we'll stay. Oh, and in the meantime, speed up the asylum process so more of us can enter America. Does this scenario end well, in anybody's imaginations? Published December 12, 2018
A.I. experts warn of loss of free will, need for morality
Pew Research Center asked 979 technology experts, business and policy leaders, scientists and science-minded activists and the like just how they thought artificial intelligence would impact humans by the year 2030 -- and while 63 percent waxed positive, another 37 percent warned of the negatives. That's a sizable percentage. Published December 11, 2018
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s weak whine on Paul Ryan
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez went on a bit of a whine fest on Twitter, calling out the country for its so-called "double standards" of giving Rep. Paul D. Ryan high marks for getting elected at a young age while calling her a "fraud" for doing the same. Thing is: Ryan's not a socialist. Published December 11, 2018
Merry Christmas — make way for the satanists

John Brennan’s rip of Donald Trump forgets this one crucial fact
Former CIA director and loud-mouthed hater of all-things-this-White House John Brennan ripped into President Donald Trump with an angry tweet that crowed about the "trouble you are in" and cheered the fact that "you will never have the opportunity to run for public office again." Except that's wrong. Published December 10, 2018
Michael Savage at White House: Jews at ‘high water mark of their existence in America’
Talk radio icon Michael Savage, in an invited Hanukkah appearance at the White House, told President Donald Trump that Jewish people and minorities, under his administration, had hit "the high water mark of their existence in America," he said. This is hardly how the media and left portray it. Published December 10, 2018
Democrats still regurgitating, after all these years
After two years of President Donald Trump, a midterm election and a Russia collusion investigation that's led nowhere, you'd think Democrats would've found a new rally call. But nope. It's "impeach Trump" in 2016, before he even took office; it's "impeach Trump" in 2018, just as the clock's about to strike 2019. Published December 10, 2018
Heather Nauert: Success stems from America First, bold and brave
Ninety percent of Heather Nauert's job will be done if she only stands tall in the face of all the globalized hand-wringers of the world -- if she only, for instance, does what outgoing Ambassador Nikki Haley has done, what former Ambassador John Bolton once did. Published December 7, 2018
Secret Service chills with facial recognition by White House
The U.S. Secret Service is testing a new facial recognition program at the White House, supposedly simply to identify their own volunteer agents in the public areas in the vicinity of 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. Well, what comes next? That is indeed the question. Published December 6, 2018
Welfare for immigrant households drain on economy — and spirit
The latest Census Bureau numbers find that more than seven of 10 households headed by immigrants in California, and nearly the same amount in Texas, are on the taxpayer dole. So much for the Democrat sheep who bleat that concerns of immigrant-tied drains on welfare are simply rooted in racism and hate. Published December 5, 2018
A.I. robots good for Walmart — not so much for space station
Walmart just announced 360 janitor robots with data-collecting capabilities will make their debuts at select stores before the end of January. Let's hope these 'bots do better than the ones sent to help astronauts at the International Space Station. Published December 4, 2018
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez slams private health care for ‘death panels’
Socialist Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez just tweeted: "[W]e have for-profit 'death panels' now: they are companies + boards saying you're on your own bc they won't cover a critical procedure or medicine." Talk about a twist on truth. Published December 3, 2018
Tuberculosis and chickenpox and AIDS, oh my
Democrats like to swoon over the sad plights of the suffering masses making their way to U.S. borders right now, saying the poor people of points south are only trying to do right by their families, find suitable jobs and safe homes and so forth. But they do so from the safe distance of Washington, D.C. Published December 1, 2018
Mike Huckabee unleashes on Jeff Flake — and it’s oh so true
Mike Huckabee, former Arkansas governor and ex-presidential candidate, took to Twitter just recently to let loose on Sen. Jeff Flake -- and oh how so, so true. Published November 30, 2018
Chris Cuomo, sorry, but Christmas isn’t about open borders
CNN's Chris Cuomo offered up a somewhat off-the-rails rationale for why America ought to open borders wide for the migrants trying to enter the country -- and suggested it was a Christian's Christmas duty. Sorry, Cuomo. Christmas isn't about open borders. Neither is Christianity, for that matter. Published November 29, 2018
Princeton professor: ‘No human being is illegal’
A Princeton professor of African American studies, Keeanga-Yamahtta Taylor, said in a tweet about the caravan at America's borders that the White House ought to "open the border" and "let them all in." After all, "No human being is illegal," Taylor went on. Published November 29, 2018
Sweden’s human microchip craze a warning for privacy-loving Americans
Thousands of Swedes have been busily inserting microchips beneath the skin on their hands -- for convenience's sake, for goodness sake. That's fine and dandy. For Sweden. But what's alarming is that the trend has been making a beeline for America's shores, as well. Published November 29, 2018
Hundreds of U.S. military victimized by shocking sex extortion prison scheme
An estimated 400 members of the U.S. military fell prey to a sex extortion scheme allegedly perpetrated, in part, by inmates of South Carolina and North Carolina prison systems. Talk about an eye-opener of a story. Published November 28, 2018
Google’s patent pursuits send shivers of Big Brother
Google seems to be taking a little skip down Big Brother lane with some George Orwell-like patent applications that give rise to images of the telescreens described in the popular "1984" novel of dystopian society -- you know, the ones where thought police watch all, hear all and take note of all for Big Government.
