Biden so weak even Mexico now threatening America

President Biden's inability to show himself as a strong leader on either national or international stages practically wipes out all of the material, military or monetary plusses that America holds. He's weak, weak, weak, and the whole world knows it -- even Mexico. Published November 18, 2021

Steve Bannon, Mark Meadows go to Washington

Roads are racist, weather is misogynist

America's roads are racist, according to Pete Buttigieg. And weather patterns are misogynist, according to Nancy Pelosi, the United Nations and the many leftists who serve the radical environmentalist cause in the media. The left's divide and conquer politics never end. Published November 11, 2021

Buttigieg should go back on maternity leave

And since, it's become glaringly apparent: America had it better when he wasn't out and about -- speaking. Published November 11, 2021

Democratic Party goes bust, and it’s just the beginning

Virginia's next governor will be a Republican -- Glenn Youngkin, not Terry McAuliffe.
