The ongoing crisis at the southern border is not just a security concern, but a major economic one. A recent report from the House Homeland Security Committee put the total annual cost of illegal immigration in the U.S. at as much as $451 billion. That includes direct costs like funding border patrol, along with indirect costs like law enforcement, housing, healthcare, and education. Continue reading
Taste is a funny thing. It changes so incrementally, we barely notice, except looking backward over time. Take my falling out of love with going to the movies. For decades, it used to be a weekly thing, sometimes more. I’d see the big blockbusters, plus whatever indie flicks looked interesting.
Now it’s Academy Awards time. Ten films have been nominated for Best Picture. I’ve seen precisely one. Barbie. Let me save you an hour and 54 minutes: It’s a movie about a doll who wears a lot of pink. She hangs out with a diverse group of fellow dolls. The men are dolts, or oppressive. The patriarchy sucks.
The movie ends – spoiler alert! – with Barbie being dropped off at the gynecologist.
Driving Miss Daisy it ain’t. Continue reading
For those that love America, these are very trying times. We have watched our beloved country go steadily downhill for decades, and in recent years that process has greatly accelerated. Now we have reached a point where our entire culture is absolutely saturated with evil, and large media corporations make billions of dollars exporting that culture to the rest of the world. In the end, we will truly reap what we have sown. Continue reading

On the first day, which this article was posted (Oct. 16, 2002), for the first time – The Federal Observer shut down every column unrelated to protecting YOUR 2nd Amendment rights as a statement of anger and frustration. I’m still angry and I’m still frustrated. Although the visitation to this article has been greater than any we have ever posted, I am concerned that few truly understand the ramifications of that, which lays before us.
I’ve had just about enough of the garbage-that-passes-for-news eminating from the anti-gun networks. Do you think that I jest? For over one week – FOX News Channel has reported nothing but the sniper shootings in D.C. (That’s District of Criminals’ for those of you who don’t understand initials.) We’ve gone from the unknown sniper to a person of possible ‘olive complextion‘. Continue reading
The radical environmental movement has just launched a massive attack on those of us who are fighting to stop their attacks on our farmers, our property rights, and our free market system.
They have especially focused on our efforts to expose the disastrous results of massive wind and solar farms, which cover thousands of acres of vital farmland with solar panels. The growing danger is that nothing can grow to feed us.
Worse, solar and wind farms are producing little of the vital energy we desperately need to live.
We are fighting the battle to expose and stop this mess. Obviously, we are having an impact. Continue reading
Frankly – as one who has been fighting this issue for many decades – enough is ENOUGH. I am tired of using the valuable space on Federal Observer to post headline after headline after MORE headlines on this topic. Biden and the rest of the CROOKED Polly-Ticians – ALL need to get – shall we say – HUNG Out to HANG! – All the while – it is WE the American People who are footing the bill for all of this BULLSHIT!
OH – and by the way – if interested in any of the preview articles below – click on the TITLE to connect to the complete articles.
As for the Elected or the Illegal Invader – just get ready to ‘Hang ‘Em High’! ~ Editor
Florida is braced for an influx of desperate refugees fleeing violence-stricken Haiti as the country inches closer to a civil war.
Gang violence has left the dead piling up in the streets of the capital Port-au-Prince and so far displaced more than 15,000 people. The US State Department has not indicated how many Americans its estimates are among those caught up in the chaos.
Rife with fraud and corruption, the U.S. government’s multi-billion-dollar Haiti aid program has failed miserably to help citizens of the impoverished island, yet the Biden administration is sending more money as violence and lawlessness grip the country. Armed gangs have overrun most of the capital of Port-au-Prince and political instability has plateaued, but the American taxpayer dollars keep flowing with no oversight though billions in assistance have vanished since an earthquake struck Haiti nearly a decade and a half ago… More of U.S. Taxpayer’s $$$ getting picked from OUR pockets.
A second wave of Venezuela’s worst criminals could soon be rushing over the US border after being released from prison in their home country.
DailyMail.com was first to report on the first wave of Venezuelan gangsters to cross the border and filter into American cities – including henchmen for dictator Nicolas Maduro and members of the notorious Tren de Aragua gang. Now, more gang bangers and thugs who had been locked away are being released, according to a government official.
In that same period, 1.2 million people have crossed the US border illegally, statistics from US Customs and Border Protection show.
In the El Paso Sector of the border, 5,800 unaccompanied children have been found near the international boundary, El Paso Border Patrol Chief Anthony Good tweeted Monday.
The shocking figure was posted alongside the photo of a young boy arriving on the border near El Paso, Texas. The system appears to be struggling to cope with the rapid numbers of migrants flowing across the border, which reached an all-time high of 302,000 monthly crossings in December.
The backlog has left millions of migrants who are currently residing in the U.S., unsure of whether they will be permitted to stay or simply be deported.
The United States is expected to be grappling with more than 8 million asylum seekers and migrants who will have crossed over the southern border by September. The staggering figure represents a 167 percent surge in five years and underscores the challenges faced by what is both an underfunded and antiquated immigration system.
The vast majority of the 8 million are now free to roam US streets, including 2 million ‘high-priority’ cases of career criminals seeking asylum.

A California Democratic assembly member’s new bill states that an individual’s immigration status can’t disqualify an applicant from the program. Joaquin Arambula, a Democratic assemblyman from California, introduced Assembly Bill 1840 earlier this year, which could create an alternative way for illegal immigrants to achieve homeownership.
The bill is set to expand eligibility criteria for a state loan program to expand these loans to include undocumented migrants that are first-time buyers. Arambula’s update to the bill states, “an applicant under the program shall not be disqualified solely based on the applicant’s immigration status.”
Concerns continue to rise across the country as the migrant crisis continues to grow and overpower different states’ available resources.
Well, Biden went to the border, the safest part of the border currently, for his election photo-op. However, it isn’t only the border area that feels the brunt of the illegal alien crime wave in this country, not that Biden gives a hoot. It would seem that Biden is currently in the “replacement” mode–replacing American citizens with foreign illegal aliens.
There have been several news reports displaying the outworking of Biden’s replacement agenda (really it’s Obama’s agenda, but Biden is a willing puppet). Illegal immigrants are involved in all manner of crimes, but that’s okay with China Joe as long as the victims are Americans and/or their children.
For instance, one episode happened right here in Louisiana. In Kenner, Louisiana, a 19 year old Illegal immigrant has been arrested following a series of violent crimes. The police have stated that this guy is in this country illegally.

Texas “will not back down” – Governor Greg Abbott vows – after a U.S. judge sided with a legal challenge by the Biden Administration against a tough new state immigration law that was to take effect next week.
When Governor Abbott signed SB 4 into law in December, it was hailed by The National Border Patrol Council (NBPC) as a weapon to help regain control of the border:
“Border Patrol agents nationwide, not just in Texas, are grateful for Governor Abbott’s leadership and willingness to recognize that it is the rule of law that keeps all Americans safe,” – NBPC President Brandon Judd
The law would make it a state crime to cross the Texas-Mexico border unlawfully.
A federal judge has ordered Joe Biden to continue building border wall along the United States-Mexico border with funds allocated under former President Donald Trump.

A series of busts of Russia’s rulers, including Vladimir Lenin, second right, and Josef Stalin, third right, are on display in Moscow, Russia
You definitely don’t want to speak out against the war or the current regime — it’s an almost guaranteed way to lose your job or end up in a prison.
That’s why everyone is so careful about what they say, and to whom they say it. Unless you know someone really, really well, you have to avoid any potentially controversial topics.
The TV blasts propaganda on a daily basis, effectively brainwashing millions of people. It’s surprising how many Russians seems to believe the news… or at least pretend to believe it.
The national elections took place this past weekend. Despite the official numbers reporting 77% voter turnout, most people I spoke to didn’t plan on voting since, “the result will be the same anyway.”
This is all eerily reminiscent of the Soviet Union. Continue reading
The Democrat Party’s propaganda media once again reported news that was a bald faced lie. They claimed that that Trump said there would be a bloodbath if he’s not re-elected. In fact, he said the US auto industry would face a bloodbath if he’s not re-elected. Biden’s Green New Deal would spell the end of the gasoline powered engines of the US auto industry and destroy countless jobs – an economic ‘bloodbath.’ Continue reading
An illegal immigrant was wrongly banned from possessing guns, according to a recent ruling.
A federal law, Section 922 of Title 18 of the U.S. Code, bars illegal immigrants from carrying guns or ammunition. Prosecutors charged Heriberto Carbajal-Flores, the illegal alien, in 2020 after he was found in Chicago carrying a semi-automatic pistol despite “knowing he was an alien illegally and unlawfully in the United States.” Continue reading
It’s that time of year again; the old duffer in the President’s Palace threw down the gauntlet during his State of the (dis)Union Address a few weeks ago…
Did you watch or listen to the antediluvian (ancient) leader of the republic?
Boy, you missed a terrific opportunity to see what the maximum dosage of pharmaceutical-grade stimulants and several Grande Espressos will do to a publicly broadcast Congressional address.
The NASP turned up the juice to max for this show. Biden knew this turn on camera was for all the marbles. He’s been playing this game for fifty years. He knows the rules and what’s at stake. He also knows to follow directions; too bad he doesn’t remember ‘what they are’, for more than thirty seconds.
Biden threw down the gauntlet on the republic by affirming all-out war. Continue reading
According to one news report this morning political operative Merrick Garland, who heads our Department of (in)Justice plans to challenge all restrictions on mail-in voting, use of drop boxes, and anything that looks to him to be the restriction of voters who don’t have proper ID’s. It would seem, as I’ve been saying all along, that the plan is to allow non-citizen, illegal alien voters to vote in this year’s election – and you can’t have them showing up in most states without proper ID’s–so you have to eliminate that requirement so that anyone showing up at a polling place can automatically vote whether they have proper identification or not. Continue reading
Arkansas Republican Sen. Tom Cotton is demanding the Pentagon disclose information on its contract with a Chinese-owned tutoring company that has access to U.S. military family data.
Tutor.com, a popular tutoring website, is owned by Primavera Holdings Limited, a firm run by Chinese nationals that also holds stakes in TikTok parent company ByteDance and e-commerce giant Alibaba. The site offers tutoring services to the U.S. military and school districts around the country.
However, a Chinese-owned company should not have access to the sensitive data of U.S. school kids and military families, according to Cotton. Continue reading
The right to keep and bear arms is a natural right, meaning all free men and women have that right, regardless of where they are on the planet. It’s part of why so many of us find other nations’ gun laws so insulting. It’s a repression of people’s right to have weapons to defend themselves and their nation.
A repression that goes out the window in the face of invasion, it should be noted.
But that brings about the question of illegal immigrants. Do they forfeit their rights when they enter the United States illegally, or do they maintain their rights as they’ve not actually been convicted of a felony or anything else? Continue reading
“Never has our future been more unpredictable, never have we depended so much on political forces that cannot be trusted to follow the rules of common sense and self-interest – forces that look like sheer insanity, if judged by the standards of other centuries.” ~ Hannah Arendt, The Origins of Totalitarianism
‘‘So I looked, and behold, a pale horse. And the name of him who sat on it was Death . . .’’
Day by day, tyranny is rising as freedom falls.
The U.S. military is being used to patrol subway stations and police the U.S.-Mexico border, supposedly in the name of national security.
The financial sector is being used to carry out broad surveillance of Americans’ private financial data, while the entertainment sector is being tapped to inform on video game enthusiasts with a penchant for violent, potentially extremist content, all in an alleged effort to uncover individuals subscribing to anti-government sentiments. Continue reading
One of the main goals of communists listed in The Communist Manifesto is the abolition of private property. That Communist goal is right up there along with another one “Free education for all children in public (government) schools.” The communists hate the concept of private property because it limits their control over people. They realize they have to control the property to control the people.
In this vein, author and researcher Arthur R. Thompson, author of To the Victors go the Myths and Monuments has written: “The communists have always attacked farmers and brought them under their control using a variety of methods. But in the end, they most always destroy the individual farms and those who own them. This is partially because the farmer has been probably the most independent and ‘off the grid’ type of individual. Such a condition is intolerable to the totalitarian state.” Continue reading
Most Americans today tend to think of private property simply as a home – the place where the family resides, stores their belongings, and finds shelter and safety from the elements. It’s where you live. It’s yours because you pay the mortgage and the taxes. Most people don’t give property ownership much more thought than that.
There was a time when property ownership was considered to be much more. Property, and the ability to own and control it, was life itself. The great economist John Locke, whose writings and ideas had a major influence on our nation’s founders, believed that “life and liberty are secure only so long as the right of property is secure.” Continue reading
Last year, the Environmental Protection Agency allocated $3 million for Tennessee to develop its first-ever climate plan through a Climate Pollution Reduction Planning Grant, which was established by the Inflation Reduction Act. The plan is to be divided into two parts and done over four years: the Priority Climate Action Plan and the Comprehensive Climate Action Plan.
But this plan is not just for Tennessee, it is for every state. Multiple departments of the federal government have put this plan together, and they certainly aren’t about to write a different one for other states. Look into your local general plan, and you might just see these edicts spelled out there.
The agency will create an inventory of the state’s biggest climate offenders — and then draft a plan to cut that pollution statewide. Continue reading
In this world, the “ideal” exists, at least in theory – the way things ought to be. But more often, there is “reality” – how things actually are. In the ideal world, a country’s government would be on the side of its people, helping them, guiding them towards virtue, honesty, righteousness, philanthropy, and a godly life. Government would instruct its citizens, by its example and leadership, to be self-controlled, responsible, frugal, and moral; to accept and learn from the consequences of their actions and not to blame others for their evil. Basic truthful realities and societal foundations, such as the nuclear family, that men are men, women are women, and children need fathers and mothers, would be encouraged, instead of letting its people destroy themselves and so many others through lies and perversions.
Such a system would mean that government would be needed for only a few limited duties. That’s the way things should be. That’s the ideal.
But that isn’t the “reality” of government. It never has been, and it never will be… Continue reading
The more things change the more they stay the same, and so, here we are some 40 years after Reagan’s amnesty for illegals, which he granted against his better judgement, and facing an illegal alien invasion a hundredfold worse than anything ever seen before in U.S. history. Who could have ever imagined that a nation so powerful as America would have any qualms over securing their border or that Her people would so willingly follow corrupt leaders towards national suicide.
This flood of invaders benefits no one more than the drug cartels, who are raking in a billion dollars a month, through drug profits their mules send back from the states and the payments they receive guiding the peasants and proles across. Continue reading
At a time when their economy is really struggling, the Chinese are increasing military spending and ramping up preparations for war. But who is China preparing to fight a war with? Needless to say, the answer to that question is obvious. Yes, the border dispute between India and China could erupt into something significant, but that is not likely.
The only other opponent that the Chinese would be fighting a major war with would be the United States. And right now, Chinese shipyards are churning out military vessels at a pace that the U.S. simply cannot match… Continue reading
