I’m Sorry, But HOW MANY Illegals Get Food Stamps?

It’s astounding, the things we learn when the money runs out and governments actually have to start prioritizing for a change. As the Schumer Shutdown drags through Week Five with no end in sight, the country’s Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) — aka “food stamps” — ran out of money on Saturday. And given who was taking, it’s a miracle that there was any money left at all.

Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins reported yesterday that earlier this year, “we told every state to send us their SNAP data so we could make sure illegal immigrants aren’t getting benefits meant for American families. 29 states stepped up. 21 blue states refused — and two SUED US FOR ASKING!

That’s because we’re spending billions on benefits to illegal aliens. Continue reading

Smith ~ Save Traditional America: Destroy Islam

Throughout the years of my life, I’ve never witnessed one good thing come from Islam on the whole, which isn’t to say I haven’t known and actually befriended a few solitary Muslims during those years. But get to know them well enough, and soon the veneer slips away and their contempt for you and America comes through in the little nuances and subtext of conversations, as they regularly defend the indefensible in regard to their imams’ numerous anti-American rants and calls to violence against Christians, Jews and all other non-believers.

I was taught to be a tolerant man, but the older one grows the more one realizes that just as one can never compromise with evil, one certainly cannot tolerate it, not in one’s home and certainly not in one’s country, And Islam is the manifestation of evil in this world if ever there was a manifestation.

Hickman: Some Clear Thinking on the American Hostage Crisis

The US hostage crisis – also known as the government shutdown – has been going on for a month now.

I’m all for limited government, but this shutdown feels incredibly vindictive, petty, and wildly unprofessional. When politicians can’t manage to compromise on something as basic as keeping the government open, it’s just a really bad look. Continue reading

Whitehead ~ The Vampire State: Feeding on Our Fear, Freedom and Finances

“But these weren’t the kind of monsters that had tentacles and rotting skin, the kind a seven-year-old might be able to wrap his mind around – they were monsters with human faces, in crisp uniforms, marching in lockstep, so banal you don’t recognize them for what they are until it’s too late.” Ransom Riggs, Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children

Monsters don’t always come wrapped in the trappings of horror or myth.

Most often, monsters in the real world look like ordinary people. They walk among us. They smile for the cameras. They promise protection and prosperity even as they feed on fear and obedience.

All is not as it seems.

We are living in two worlds. Continue reading

The Fight Against the New Deal Never Ended

Conservatives’ fresh instructions to history

(Eric Sailer)

In the early days of National Review, William F. Buckley Jr. liked to draw stark lines. One such line is right there in the November 1955 mission statement: “Conservatives in this country — at least those who have not made their peace with the New Deal, and there is serious question whether there are others — are non-licensed nonconformists,” Buckley wrote.

Buckley helped make support for free markets — what the same document called the “competitive price system” — a foundational element of the conservative movement. It’s not surprising that a movement so dedicated set its sights on the New Deal: the watershed moment of government involvement not just in the private economy but also in everyday life, by which the administration of Franklin Delano Roosevelt responded to the Great Depression.

Garrison: Halloween Horrors 2025

“Throw the third switch!”
“Not the third switch!”
“Throw it, throw it I say!”
~ Young Frankenstein

Zohran Kwame Mamdani came to America from Uganda and he is becoming the titular head of the Democrat Party.

Some democrat leaders such as Jeffries and Schumer are grudgingly endorsing him for Mayor of New York City. Others such as AOC and Bernie Sanders are more enthusiastic with their support. After all, Mamdani is an avowed socialist and the democrats have been moving toward socialism for quite some time. His plans will have a major impact on our nation’s largest city. Islamic terrorists ran planes into the World Trade Center nearly 25 years ago. Now the city wants to elect a radical Muslim who will cause a different kind of destruction. Continue reading

Dickens: What Do You Really Want?

“It is not the man who has too little, but the man who craves more, that is poor.” ~ Seneca

Steps to understanding intent.

What are we looking for?

It’s Sunday morning, October 26th, 2025. The events of the previous several months have been a torrent of data points, allegations, innuendos, accusations, and hypocrisy; an emotional roller-coaster, embellished by some of the finest performative political posturing a person could possibly tolerate.

There was much joyful anticipation about the possible peace in the Middle East and between Ukraine and Russia. Reactions suggest that people view promises as sources of anticipation, influenced by personal aspirations and disappointment when those desires don’t materialize. But we don’t look inward for the root of the dream; we’re being lied to and misled by the mainstream media and their advertising tactics. Continue reading

Bennett ~ 1957 The Autumn of My Youth

It is that time of the year once again – for those who still follow the game of Baseball – the 2025 World Series. I no longer follow sports – I have no time, but this is today – but this was yesterday!

I was nine years old – the Autumn of my youth – and I was out in the front yard of my Grandfathers home with Uncle Charles, and we were playing Monopoly while listening on the radio to the 1957 World Series. We lived near Eagle, Wisconsin – the state of my birth

I was at home and tuning in to the Milwaukee Braves…

This was my youth – and they were my Home Team. This is the Year that the Braves would win the World Series.

Psychotherapist Explains Why No Kings Rallies Consisted of Mostly ‘Educated White Women’

Altogether, an estimated 7 million people turned out to protest Trump’s actions as president, specifically things they perceive as dragging the United States closer to authoritarianism

A psychotherapist has explained why many attendees of last week’s No Kings protests were educated white women in their forties.

Jonathan Alpert, a New York City-based mental health counselor, told Fox News that ’40-something women are probably the biggest demographic of consumers of mental health services. Probably twenties to forties’… Continue reading

Johnson: Big Pharma Unites with Big Farma

Big Pharma’s reach extends far beyond human medicine, infiltrating the cattle, chicken, pork, fish, and even fruit and vegetable industries. My findings will shock you. They might drive you to raise your own livestock and grow your own produce, though that’s no simple task. Those with the means and land – complete with a pond – are breeding their own tilapia, raising animals, and cultivating their own food. But not everyone can become a farmer or rancher. If that’s not an option, you may want to seek out wild-caught fish and source meat and produce from farmers who avoid vaccines in their livestock and crops. Continue reading

Roberts: The Destruction of America Is What the Democrats Stand For

The Democrat Party needs to change its name as it certainly isn’t democratic. The Democrats have shut down the government in order to prevent democracy from working. By freezing the government, they are trying to prevent the MAGA agenda that the people voted for. The Democrat’s method of operation is: When you can’t steal the election, shutdown the government.

By making democracy dysfunctional, the Democrats are bolstering the power of the executive branch. It is not possible to have a government as large as the one the Democrats have created and prevent it from operating. The result is to move power to the executive. Continue reading

Smith: Finding My Way Home ~ The Quiet Hours and Reflections On Liberty

Phill Magakoe/AFP

It saddens me beyond words to witness so many of our youth so anxious to jump into the arms of Big Brother, all for a bit of sucker and comfort for the price of a nickel, government minions, serfs and whores all too willing to betray everything good and decent about America and in fact destroy Her completely. No matter that the Charlie Kirk movement may reveal a bit of a trend back towards the America of Her founding, we still see far too many indoctrinated poltroons who know not what it is that they do not know – and who do not care so long as the federal government is continuously forced to fund their lifestyle on the backs of the producers, those who would see all America turned into queers, deviants, Muslims and communists if only the Democratic Party Communists of the same cloth as Zohran Mamdani could have their way.
