Texas Republican: “We’re losing our culture to Islam!

Calling on the U.S. to deport 100 million people, a former Texas county GOP chair says Americans have good reason to openly embrace Islamophobia.

The Texas Tribune reports that during a “Don’t Sharia My Texas” panel at the recent Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC), Bo French, a former Tarrant County GOP chair and a current candidate for state railroad commissioner, said something he was sure would make people uncomfortable: Islam is a problem.

I think there is the sense that we are losing our culture, our American culture, our Christian culture,” he later told American Family Radio. “The president ran on a platform of mass deportations. By estimates, there are roughly 100 million people in the country who probably shouldn’t be here. What we do with those, I don’t know, but certainly mass deporting a good chunk of those would be helpful.” Continue reading

Smith: Let America Fight For America

It is long past time for the United States of America to withdraw from the North Atlantic Treaty Organization and chart a new course of sovereign alliances rooted in mutual respect, shared Western principles, and an unyielding commitment to liberty. The events unfolding in the Strait of Hormuz in late March 2026 have laid bare what many clear-eyed Americans have suspected for decades: NATO is not an alliance of equals but a one-way protection racket that has drained American blood and treasure while fostering a continent-wide culture of dependency, entitlement, and creeping tyranny.

When President Donald Trump looked the European capitals in the eye — via Truth Social and the bully pulpit of the Oval Office — and declared, “You’ll have to start learning how to fight for yourself… The U.S.A. won’t be there to help you anymore,” and followed it with the unvarnished command to “go get your own oil,” he did more than issue a tactical rebuke. He performed the final autopsy on a seventy-seven-year grift that had turned the world’s greatest republic into the unwitting financier of European adolescence. Continue reading

Garrison ~ Trump’s Disassembly Line: Pam Bondi Gets Fired

President Trump has never had problems firing people – even his friends – and now Pam Bondi is the latest cabinet member to be rolled away on his Disassembly Line.

Trump already fired Jeff Sessions and he should have fired William Barr, but the latter sensed what was coming and resigned first. Sessions recused himself from the Russia investigation early on, earning the nickname “Mr. Magoo.”

He frustrated Trump with what many saw as weakness against the Deep State. William Barr defended the president publicly, but did nothing to support him. Later, he wrote a tell-all book claiming Trump was ‘off the rails.” Five others either resigned or were fired during Trump’s first term. Continue reading

Ross: Raw and Uncensored

It is the 5th of April, 2026, and it is around 1:40 am. I have been laying wide awake in bed for nearly an hour with an idea, a thought, that would not leave me alone; hence the reason I am once again sitting behind this keyboard. Before I get to the thought itself, there is something I need to say.

There is an individual who sometimes responds to my blogposts who has berated me in the past for the manner in which I write; my constant use of the first person singular when I say things. This individual says it sounds like I am making this all about me; that I am saying that I am right, and anyone who disagrees with me is wrong. While this is just a single case of that happening, it does bring up a point; what I am actually doing here… Continue reading

April 5, 2026: More BS ahead!

Trump Administration Files Emergency Motion to Resume Ballroom Work

Trump Wants Congress to Slash Social Services and Give Him $1.5 Trillion for the Military, but Patty Murray Stands in His Way

In a speech at a private lunch Wednesday billed as a celebration of Easter, President Donald Trump told the White House budget chief he wants the federal government to spend money on the military, not social services like child care and health care, which he said states should pay for by raising taxes.

“We’re fighting wars; we can’t take care of day care,” the president said. “It’s not possible for us to take care of day care, Medicaid, Medicare – all these individual things.”

After posting a video of the closed-door event, in which Trump’s spiritual adviser compared him to Jesus Christ, the White House deleted it. But if the administration was sheepish about those funding priorities, it made them explicit Friday by publishing the president’s budget request to Congress for the fiscal year that begins in October.

Sen. Patty Murray, the top Democrat on the Senate Appropriations Committee, has to sign off on the spending bills that require bipartisan support to become law each year. That makes the relatively low-profile Washington lawmaker arguably the most powerful Democrat in the federal government at a time when her party has precious little leverage in the nation’s capital. In a statement Friday, she called the future envisioned by Trump’s budget request “bleak and unacceptable… (Continue to full article)

Trump Tariffs on Pharmaceuticals Could Spike Costs 100% for Common Meds

Despite President Trump’s controversial tariff-launching “Liberation Day” being just over a year old — and with the legality of most of those tariffs stricken down by the Supreme Court — the Trump administration surprised the nation on Liberation Day’s first anniversary by announcing new tariffs on many brand-name drugs manufactured outside of the United States. This is a move that could, in the short term, radically increase the prices of your medication.

Trump’s plan? To levy a 100% tariff on pharmaceutical companies that manufacture drugs in foreign countries, rather than in America. It’s a policy designed to reshape the pharmaceutical industry in the long-term by incentivizing American manufacturing and price concessions, with large drug companies being given 120 days (and smaller companies 180 days) to negotiate the construction of American-based pharmaceutical plants to avoid the tariffs.

Some major pharmaceutical companies — like Pfizer and Johnson & Johnson — have already begun negotiations. Others, however, have yet to make a deal with the administration… (Continue to full article)

No Escape for Trump

There’s a moment in every failed strongman’s story when the noise fades, the flunkies fall silent and slip from the throne room one final time before the shooting starts. There’s a moment where the court jesters stop laughing at the Dear Leader’s every joke, and when reality comes crashing through the gilded walls like a breaching charge. There’s a moment when the loyal bodyguard’s eyes flicker with some new signal, and the dictator wonders if the tools of oppression and brutality will be turned on him.

For Donald Trump, that moment isn’t coming someday.

It’s here.

Nothing will save you now, Donald!!! (Continue to full article)

Trump Says He’s Considering Stopping Federal Medicare, Medicaid and Daycare Funding: ‘It’s Not Possible

To sell their drugs, pharmaceutical companies hire former cheerleaders and ex- models to wine and dine doctors, exaggerate the drug’s …

Throughout President Donald Trump’s second term, he has made it very clear that he plans to protect Medicare, Medicaid and Social Security, but some of his actions have contradicted that promise. This includes the Medicaid cuts outlined in the One Big Beautiful Bill Act and his tariffs, which have made it difficult for seniors to feel financially stable. Now, President Trump says he’s considering cutting national funding for Medicare and Medicaid to help fund the war with Iran. We share exactly what he said, and if he’s allowed to make the cuts.

Young punks don’t like driving the same vehicles that their parents drove. This was evident when drivers embraced the minivan as the anti-station wagon in the 1980s and 90s, and again when SUVs rose to prominence in the 2000s in an effort to get away from the uncoolness of minivans. So what’s coming next?… (Continue to full article)

Smith: KICK TRUMP in the BALLS!

Just un-effin’-believable. He’s definitely a damned wrecking ball. Every time he wins me back just a little, he pulls some shit like this that simply makes me want to puke and pushes me miles away from him. I shudder to think of what comes after him, but I’m ready to see him go, not over his execution of the Iran war but over shit like this insane utterance. Continue reading

Dickens: Accountability & The Law… It’s Time to Demand Changes!

“No one is above the law” is a fundamental democratic principle called the rule of law. It states that everyone, regardless of wealth, power, or status – including presidents and public officials – must be treated equally under the law and be held accountable for their actions. This principle ensures that no one is immune from legal consequences and helps prevent abuses of power.

“No one is above the law” means that every individual, regardless of status, wealth, or power – including government leaders like presidents – is equally subject to the law and must follow it. It highlights that no one can act without consequences or receive special treatment, promoting accountability and equality in a democratic society.

The U.S. Constitution doesn’t explicitly say ‘no one is above the law,’ but it expresses this idea through the rule of law, particularly through the 14th Amendment’s Equal Protection Clause and the Supremacy Clause. These parts of the Constitution require that everyone, including government officials, be held responsible under the law. Continue reading

The Salty Citizen: Clowns to the Left of Me, Jokers to the Right

And here I am, stuck in the middle with youmy fellow salty citizens.

Good news, everybody – Still no kings here in America.

Just a whole lot of clowns… and an alarming number of jokers.

One big, beautiful, tent where BOTH the left and right gather their best freaks and frauds to dazzle and distract us to death.

Protests in the public streets.

Procrastination in the elected seats. I’m looking at you, Congress.

Humph. Just bloody brilliant! Continue reading

Homeschool Legal Defense Helps Parents go on Offense in Connecticut

Far from being ignored anymore, the home-schooling movement is coming under Big Brother-like scrutiny that goes way beyond filing annual paperwork to a social worker’s knock on the door.

Ralph Rodriguez, an attorney at Home School Legal Defense, told “Washington Watch” he was being interviewed on the program just hours after helping homeschooling families in Connecticut fight a bill that would allow the Department of Children and Families, or DCF, to investigate families for child abuse.

The homeschooling bill, House Bill 5468, which passed out of the Education Committee 26-20 this week, represents “the most significant shift in homeschool policy in the country,” the HSLDA attorney insisted.

That’s because homeschooling families, who are already disliked and mistrusted by critics, would be an immediate target of DCF because the bill mandates the public school district must contact DCF if a student withdraws from public school for homeschooling. Continue reading

Boston Moves The Education Goalposts Then Celebrates Cheating The Students

Participation awards aren’t even good for five-year-old little leaguers, so participation diplomas for high school or college graduates can only be described as disastrous.

Get your children OUT of the System – NOW

I have written several columns in the past about the declining education systems in certain blue cities across the country. In some instances, the test scores were so poor that it was nearly unbelievable. The solutions to these issues are not complicated, but identifying the problems and finding enough people willing to address them is another challenge altogether.

Teachers can no longer give failing grades

To facilitate effective learning, students should be taught rather than indoctrinated. Clear expectations must be established, along with consequences for when those expectations are not met. Currently, the educational system – from kindergarten through college – features teachers and administrators who often act more like social busybodies and micromanagers of others’ affairs than on teaching subjects that will genuinely benefit students in real life.

Hickman: What if This is ALL Part of the Plan?

You don’t have to look very hard these days to see widespread criticism of the conflict in Iran.

Obviously, there are the usual suspects like the New York Times and Washington Post who have called it “folly” and “rotten”. But plenty of voices on the right have joined in the criticism as well.

Tucker Carlson calls it “absolutely disgusting and evil”. Thomas Massie says it is “not America First”. Joe Rogan says it’s “insane”. Joe Kent, formerly the Director of the National Counterterrorism Center, resigned his post because Iran was not “an imminent threat” and there was no “clear path to a swift victory”.

McCullough: Saving America Comes First!

I’m tired.

Not of the fight. Not of the debate. Not even of the opposition.

I’m tired of the excuses.

For weeks now, we’ve been told – again and again – that passing the SAVE America Act is just too difficult. Too complicated. Too procedurally burdensome. Too politically risky.

“It’s an arduous task,” they say.

Good. It should be. Because saving America has never been easy. And the sooner the United States Senate remembers that, the better. Continue reading

Haggith: Expiration Date

A poem for these times of waning sense and fading glory.

I felt inspired to write something totally different today – a poem – though I think it fits the feeling of these times. – David Haggith

The grass leans lightly away from the wind,

as the light grows dim in the once-golden fields,

now gray at the fall of day.

The song of evening bird cries across the plain,

and the earth waits to receive a rain

long in coming. Continue reading

Smith: The Power of Sunrise

The French philosopher Jean-Paul Sartre argued that human beings are condemned to freedom — that we are always responsible not only for our actions but for how we interpret them. In existential terms, one cannot hide behind ideology or collective narratives. If you believe an act was necessary, even just, then your lack of remorse may reflect a deeply integrated moral framework rather than moral deficiency. The discomfort may stem from external voices insisting that your interior landscape should look different. Continue reading

Smith: I’ll Not Offer the Other Cheek… The Rhythm of American Life Has Shifted

This is a small exercise in ethics and the massive expansion of criminal activity we now find in America, largely due to this corrupt, immoral and far too permissive society we’ve allowed to manifest itself in our midst, giving way to the worst aspects of human nature and leaving destruction and shattered lives in its wake.

Most people are sure to disagree with me, but it’s been a decades long journey for me to arrive at this point. I full well believe that under certain extreme situations, the law is inadequate, ineffectual and totally useless; and, in order to shame the powers-that-be for so gross an inadequacy, it is necessary to act outside of the normal parameters of the law to pursue natural justice – vengeance if you must name it. Continue reading

Snyder: Is The World Ready For A Global Energy Catastrophe And A Global Food Catastrophe At The Same Time?

We have reached an unprecedented moment in human history. If this war with Iran continues for an extended period of time, we will be facing the greatest energy disruption in human history and the greatest food production disruption in human history simultaneously. Many were hoping that Iran would agree to the Trump administration’s proposal for a 30 day ceasefire, but it was obvious that was never going to happen.

The Iranians have completely rejected Trump’s 15 point plan, and they are demanding that the U.S. must agree to permanent Iranian sovereignty over the Strait of Hormuz before any negotiations even begin. Needless to say, the U.S. will never agree to that, and so the war will rage on.

For now, Iran is determining which vessels are allowed to travel through the Strait of Hormuz… Continue reading

Garrison: Which is Worst? – A RINO or A DINO?

Ah, the majestic creatures of Washington D.C. — where the elephants sprout rhino horns, the donkeys grow dinosaur tails, and the only thing bipartisan is the finger-pointing.

The RINOs (Republicans In Name Only) and DINOs (Democrats In Name Only) are circling the Capitol dome like it’s feeding time at the world’s most expensive zoo. In front of the cameras, the big beasts growl and posture. But on main street, the frustrated voters are losing it: “DARN RINOs!” “DARN DINOs!Continue reading

Haggith: The STRAIT Jacket

It suits the president well.

Iran flat-out rejected Trump’s “peace plan” today (again) and continued its attacks around the gulf and at Israel where missile interceptors seem to be stretched a little thin now in their ability to shield the public, almost like Israel is running triage to save their use now for the most important sites. Iran clearly wants to stay in the fight at this point to exact as much revenge as it can (and it has said as much several times.)

A move by US President Donald Trump to start indirect talks is illogical and not viable at this stage of the conflict, Iran’s semi-official Fars news agency reported on Wednesday

None of this stopped the president from continuing to say that Iran is eagerly negotiating for peace, and he hopes to have an agreement later this week, to which Iran gave an interesting response: Continue reading

DeWeese: Cesar Chavez – A Saul Alinsky-Trained Thug Gets His Due!

Cesar Chavez

Sometimes it may take many years, but finally the lies are exposed, the halos crash to the ground and vindication is awarded to the truth tellers. Pardon me if I am feeling a bit of satisfaction from some shocking revelations – finally! Let me start with some details of personal events from years ago.

In the 1970s I was a dedicated activist of Young Americans for Freedom (YAF) the largest conservative youth activist group in the nation. I became state chairman of the Ohio branch. It was a time of major Leftist activity on college campuses, including antiwar demonstrations and violent riots. It was the beginning of the drive for the radical agenda we face today.

One of the major issues born from that agenda was the claim that immigrant farmworkers were oppressed victims of the capitalist economy that was getting rich as the workers could barely find enough to eat. Out of the oppression a savior emerged. Continue reading
