Smith: A Quarter to Midnight in America

‘‘So I looked, and behold, a pale horse. And the name of him who sat on it was Death . . .’’

Everything we are witnessing today is a denial of our Natural Rights, Freedom and Liberty and spiritual realities. What is left to us is this naked, immoral society that now holds itself up as the arbiter of what can and can’t be allowed in the public forum and the halls of government, as if government and its men do in fact grant us our rights, such privileges as they see fit. The Leviathan is held before us as our new “god” invested with all the powers it has stolen from our Christian religion, as Christianity is torn asunder and the people are left with a void wanting to be filled. The twentieth century saw “separation of Church and State” as a great triumph, but what a miserable failure of intellect and a great defeat for Americans it has been. Continue reading

Blockbuster House Report Reveals How Badly Biden’s Broken Our Immigration System

‘There is virtually no enforcement of our immigration laws’ with 4.7 million new arrivals

On October 10, the majority Republicans on the House Judiciary Committee released a blockbuster report captioned “The Biden Border Crisis: New Data and Testimony Show How the Biden Administration Opened the Southwest Border and Abandoned Interior Enforcement”. It reveals how the administration has broken our immigration system, with one phrase therein ringing truest: “There is virtually no enforcement of our immigration laws.” Continue reading

The 225-year-old ‘Alien Enemies Act’ Needs to Come Out of Retirement

They Don’t Write ’Em Like They Used To

~ Summary ~

* The Trump campaign has called for the invocation of the “Alien Enemies Act” (“AEA”) to “remove all known or suspected gang Members, drug dealers, or Cartel Members from the U.S.”

* The AEA was enacted in 1798 in reaction to a feared invasion by France, then in the throws of the infamous French Revolution. The Justice Department has explained that “One of the measures of protection found by every nation to be most necessary in time of war is the guarding against internal enemies whose operations are more insidious, and therefore, more dangerous … in many cases, than are the active maneuvers of military forces … . An army of spies, incendiaries, and propagandists may be more dangerous than an army of soldiers.”

* Unlike the other “Alien and Sedition Acts” of 1798, the AEA received wide bipartisan support, including that of Thomas Jefferson and James Madison, implacable opponents of the other Acts.

* The AEA is still good law, providing that “Whenever there is a declared war between the United States and any foreign nation or government, or any invasion or predatory incursion is perpetrated, attempted, or threatened against the territory of the United States by any foreign nation or government … all natives, citizens, denizens, or subjects of the hostile nation or government [at least 14 years old and not having become naturalized U.S. citizens] … shall be liable to be apprehended, restrained, secured, and removed as alien enemies.” Continue reading

Over 70,000 ‘Special Interest Aliens‘ Have Attempted to Enter the US During Past Two Years by Way of the Southern Border Prompting ‘Extreme Concerns‘ by Border Officials

Tens of thousands of people designated as ‘special interest aliens’ have been detained at the U.S. southern border during the past two years, raising fresh worries about the threat of terrorists sneaking into the country.

In all, more than 70,000 migrants have been picked up from countries of particular concern, according to leaked Custom and Border Protection data.

They include 6,386 nationals from Afghanistan, where the Taliban took control in 2021 after a 20-year war, 659 people from Iran, which backs the terrorist group Hamas, and Syria, which is designated as a state sponsor of terrorism. Continue reading

27 State AGs Request Federal Government End Catch-And-Release Policies

Twenty-seven attorneys general, led by Florida’s Ashley Moody, are demanding Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas “fix the problem you created” and close the catch-and-release loophole DHS is “currently exploiting to implement its mass release policy at the Southwest Border.”

The coalition filed a Petition for Rulemaking demanding that Mayorkas amend DHS’s catch-and-release policies. In their 6-page letter, they point to how “DHS is releasing aliens at a rate of over one million per year, and that does not include the aliens being released on parole under § 1182(d)(5).”

In addition to releasing inadmissible illegal foreign nationals into the U.S., DHS is releasing them with court dates for three to four years and even 10 years into the future, a lag that The Center Square first reported . The coalition argues Mayorkas’ policies will result in allowing millions more unauthorized people to remain in the U.S. for 15 years or longer before ever they ever appear before an immigration judge.

UPDATE: Choosing the Best Education at Risk of Arrest

The chilling story of the Romeike family

NOTE: What you are about to read will sicken you. Joe Buy Deng and his crew have opened the Borders of this country to the largest number of future Demon-Cratic voters, but do NOTHING to protect those who have come to this country and conducted themselves as loving, caring, contributing human beings. ~ Editor

If you’re like most parents, you want the best for your children, especially when it comes to education.

But to what lengths would you go to achieve that best? Would you be willing to risk arrest by the government in order to choose the best education for your child? Continue reading

My Right to be Uncommon!

Dedicated to ALL of those who have contributed to the efforts of this site for these past many years. ~ Ed.

It is my right to be uncommon… if I can; I seek opportunity…not security. I do not wish to be a kept citizen, humbled and dulled by having the state look after me.

I want to take the calculated risk; to dream and to build, to fail and to succeed. I refuse to barter incentive for a dole. I prefer the challenges of life to the guaranteed existence; the thrill of fulfillment to the stole calm of utopia.

I will not trade freedom for beneficence nor my dignity for a handout. I will never cower before any master nor bend to any threat. Continue reading

Smith: Now I Have War On My Mind…

America has entered some of the darkest and most dangerous times most of us have ever witnessed within our own lifetimes. Warnings are cried out from our people, those sane patriots among us, but everything seems to be broken, as we are led by monsters intent on destroying anything worth holding and guarding tightly, especially the freedoms and liberties of our people.

I am in the autumn of my life, at almost 67 years of age, and I have seen this big, wide and wonderful country of ours from one mountain range to another and sea to shining sea. From my earliest years, I have born witness to a nation whose people were so much more free than they are today, where racism was actually becoming less of “a thing” and we lived in a period where our people really wanted to help one another, to live and let live and enjoy life as it came. It was a time when our society still had a good bit of its moral backbone in place, and our people still recognized right from wrong and good from evil. Continue reading

Hellbent: Leftists Are Dying From Their Own Destructive but Non-Stop Ideology

Bad news for those hoping the spate of recent headlines revealing how the corrosive consequences of leftist social policies are now blowing back upon those who have promulgated them might trigger meaningful change: progressive globalists are more than happy to sacrifice their own in pursuit of their larger destructive agenda.

Holmquist: Effeminacy Is Not Working for the Christian Church

Sitting in a pew last summer, waiting for a small funeral service to start, I saw a young woman walk to the podium and begin to speak. To my surprise, she introduced herself as the minister who would be conducting the service, and then she began to lead those gathered to remember the departed through the songs, prayers, and eulogizing typical of funerals.

While the presence of this female minister initially came as a surprise, further consideration led me to realize that her presence was simply a natural consequence of the women’s liberation movement and the heightened emphasis on empathetic feelings in today’s society. Continue reading

Centrist GOP Effort to Reinstate McCarthy Picks Up Steam After Israel Attacks

Reinstalling the Californian, the thinking goes, is the only way to quickly deliver aid to Israel.

The attacks in Israel and demand for U.S. aid are injecting new urgency into recent talks among centrist House Republicans to attempt to reinstate Kevin McCarthy as House speaker, with scores of Republican lawmakers now discussing the effort.

Calls and texts among GOP members picked up dramatically after news of the attacks reached the U.S. overnight Friday. The message, per one House Republican lawmaker involved in the long-shot effort: “We need to bring back Kevin, immediately.” Continue reading

McCutchen: Rebuttal to Little Rock Newspaper

I am a 92 years old, full of mind, full of fight and certainly aware of the self-serving collection of criminal buffoons that are posing as leaders in our Republican form of government.

Evidence of the aforementioned can be demonstrated by the removal of House Speaker Kevin McCarthy who represents the ongoing irresponsible spending, i.e. Ukraine while refusing to secure our national borders from an invading throng of illegal, uncivilized invaders resulting in the creation of an international dumping ground. Incidentally re Ukraine, compounding the corruption with no accounting of monies and armor sent to Ukraine.

Not a word from the Republican Ogres about the laws contained in 8USC that covers every aspect of illegal immigration and not one challenge made against the arrogant Joe Biden by the 535! Continue reading

Don’t Tread On Me!

Nearly 60% of Americans want big business to stay out of politics.

The majority of Americans want big businesses to stay out of politics, according to a new poll conducted by Gallup and Bentley University.

Its survey has revealed up to 60 percent of Americans believe that companies should not take a public stance on social or political issues.

Despite the increasing trend of corporate activism, Americans appear to be growing weary of business injecting politics into their messaging, particularly when it is regarding divisive issues. Continue reading

Biden’s ‘Decision‘ (HAHAHAHA) on Border Wall Described as ‘About 9 Million Crossings Too Late’

An immigration border enforcement organization says after more than two years arguing a border wall is “bad policy,” the Biden administration is finally getting it. But an immigration attorney says the administration really didn’t have any choice but to restart the wall’s construction.

On Thursday, Biden defended his administration’s decision to waive 26 federal laws in South Texas to allow for construction of roughly 20 miles of additional border wall – then said flatly that he didn’t think such walls work. (NOTE: Many of the same ‘laws’ that he signed Executive Orders for – about 3 hours after he was sworn in replacing Trump. ~ Editor)

Matt Gaetz Explodes On House Republican Colleagues ‘Who Have Hollowed Out This Town!

We’re in the midst of Matt Gaetz’s “Falling Down” moment. He’s taking a bat to the entire House GOP!

Carl Sagan Saw US Schools Were Ruining Kids Decades Ago: ‘Something Terrible Has Happened

Despite the extravagant spending, our schools are failing our kids. Carl Sagan saw it. John Taylor Gatto saw it. And we all see it today.

My wife and I recently met with the principal of the school our daughter attends to discuss her education future.

My daughter, who turns 12 in a few days, wants to go to a different school in the fall, largely because many of her friends – who are a year ahead of her – are graduating to new schools. (And also because her teacher, whom she adored, took a job in a different district.)

When we stepped into the principal’s office, she offered us chairs. She was warm, knowledgeable, and helpful, and I got the feeling she knows my daughter and wants what is best for her. I suspect my daughter will return to the school for one more year, but it’s a conversation we’ll have together. Continue reading

School Kids Are So Violent Coming Out of the Pandemic That They’re Sending Teachers to the Hospital

… but an expert says to resist ‘get tough’ approaches!

There’s a lot of evidence that schools and students are more violent places after the pandemic. Getty images

The 2022-23 school year was a particularly violent year for educators.

In Florida, a high school student beat a paraprofessional unconscious. A 15-year-old in Georgia left her teacher with difficulty walking. And a group of students in Texas sent their assistant principal to the hospital after an assault.

Recent headlines suggest the 2023-24 school year may not be much different. Continue reading

An Open Border Coalition Is Tearing Law Enforcement Apart

This article was provided by an active U.S. Border Patrol agent who is stationed on the Texas-Mexico border. The agent’s name has been withheld.

This week, a supervisor in the U.S. Border Patrol cut boundary wires that hold the line on illegal migrations from Mexico. His actions opened a floodgate to thousands of daily illegal border crossings. The Texas National Guard immediately directed its own agents to fix the wire in an effort to stop the flood.

These acts in a single day at a single location perfectly display the opposing views of our state and the federal governments about the border crisis.

On one hand, Texas’ mission is to secure the border with all available state, county and local resources. Texas’ efforts are coordinated to protect the state’s forces, populations, and infrastructure.

On the other hand, Washington’s mission is to facilitate a safe, orderly and humane environment for the migration of millions of “refugees” and asylum seekers. Continue reading

Time To End The Fed And Its Mismanagement Of Our Economy

Every major economic downturn of the last 110 years bears the mark of the Federal Reserve.

In fact, as long as the Fed has been around, it has swung the economy between inflation and recession. Yet Americans, surprisingly, have tolerated it.

But we shouldn’t expect that to go on forever. We had three central banks before the Fed, and confined each to the ash heap of history.

The problems inherent to central banking are cause to scrap the Fed as well.
