Partisan Lawfare is Doing Great Harm: The Democrats and their progressive/Marxist friends are willing to abuse the very fiber of our country and its Constitution for political objectives. They are so afraid of losing an election this year and jeopardizing the implementation of their far-left agenda that they are willing to risk our nation for the sake of partisan politics.
The weaponization of the FBI, CIA, IRS, and other three letter agencies is the true threat to democracy and our Republic.
Hamas Wing in Charge: The Hamas wing of the Democratic Party is in charge… and America is paying the price.
No respect for the rule of law.
No respect for fellow students or citizens… zero tolerance.
Mass racism encouraging discontent and hate.
Mass discrimination against anyone Jewish.
Democrats, from college campuses to mainstream media to Congress and the Administration, have empowered these radicals who are destroying our country and culture at the core.
This is coming to a neighborhood near you!

Biden claims inflation was 9% when he came into office — when it actually was 1.4%
President Biden claimed Wednesday that voters were wrong to blame him for high inflation because it “was 9% when I came to office” — when in fact it actually was just 1.4%.
“No president has had the run we’ve had in terms of creating jobs and bringing down inflation, It was 9% when I came to office — 9%,” Biden told CNN’s Erin Burnett in a rare interview.
The 81-year-old president defended his economic policies after Burnett pressed him on the fact that “voters by a wide margin trust [former President Donald] Trump more on the economy.”
Biden insisted ahead of his November rematch against Trump that he already “turned around” the economy, despite persistently high inflation and interest rates.
Inflation crept up shortly after Biden took office before surging to rates unseen since the early 1980s, peaking at an annual rate of 9.1% in June 2022 — 17 months after he took office.
Biden administration preparing to hand out 10K migrant ID cards in several US cities
The Biden administration hopes to dispense thousands of ID cards to migrants in the coming weeks as part of an effort to update the documentation that US government agencies provide illegal border-crossers.
Immigration and Customs Enforcement is planning on a “limited rollout” of its Secure Docket Card program this summer that would see roughly 10,000 ID cards distributed to migrants in as many as four US cities, according to Fox News.
Two potential locations are Houston and Atlanta, a source told the outlet.
The program aims to “modernize documentation provided to some noncitizens,” according to ICE, which notes that the cards are only intended for use by Department of Homeland Security agencies — such as ICE, Customs and Border Protection and Citizenship and Immigration Services.
“While the specifics of the card and pilot are under development, it is important to note the secure card will not be an official form of federal identification,” ICE told Fox News.
Biden’s Deputies Use Refugee Program to Import Economic Migrants
President Joe Biden’s deputies are converting Congress’ refugee program for populations stricken by war, famine, or disasters into yet another pipeline for poor foreigners to get into Americans’ jobs, homes, and shopping centers.
“Last summer, we came together to set up Safe Mobility Offices in Guatemala, Colombia, Costa Rica, Ecuador – providing screening and referral information to individuals where they are,” Secretary of State Antony Blinken told regional foreign ministers in Guatemala on May 7. He continued:
Since the program’s launch, we’ve settled – resettled over 7,500 refugees [from the Americas] in the United States, and another nearly 20,000 individuals have been approved for various other legal pathways. And this is only the beginning. We are on track to resettle six times more individuals this year than last year.
This year, according to the New York Times, “the Biden administration has streamlined processing and opened up so-called Safe Mobility Offices in Colombia, Guatemala, Ecuador and Costa Rica to help take in applications from migrants and expand refugee processing from the region.”
In prior years, U.S. officials formerly imported refugees fleeing from wartime zones, such as Syria or Somalia. For example, in 2016, under President Barack Obama, his deputies imported roughly 60 percent of 85,000 refugees in 2016 from five war zones in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Syria, Burma, Iraq, and Somalia. The prior programs matched the Department of State’s description of Congress’ law:
Biden Just Did What He Declared an Impeachable Offense Back in 2019 When Trump Was President
The House of Representatives voted to add a citizenship question to the census and block illegal immigrants from skewing the redistricting and Electoral College apportionment processes.
In a 206 to 202 vote, the lower chamber passed the Equal Representation Act Wednesday along party lines, but the measure is expected to be dead on arrival in the Senate.
“Including the count of non-US citizens in determining how many congressional seats and electoral votes each state has is skewing the representation of Americans in their federal government,” Rep. Chuck Edwards (R-Ill.) said in a statement.
Edwards introduced the bill back in January and attached well over 100 co-sponsors.
Underpinning the legislation is the fact that every decade, following the census, states revisit their congressional maps and either lose or gain seats based on population changes.

Why the Right Can Never Fight Like the Left
The Right in America fights for different ends with different troops, so of course we tend to choose different means.
‘Why can’t we fight the way they do?” This is the eternal cry of the civilized man at war, the policeman walking the beat — and the political conservative. There’s an answer, and it goes beyond the moral injunctions that “we’re better than they are” or “we shouldn’t sink to their level.” It is also this: We’re fighting for different things, with different people. So of course our methods must be different. The reasons are not only moral; they are practical. They should be considered even by those who reject all appeals to morality in politics.
In any form of conflict, there are two basic principles that constrain your strategy and your tactics: Your ends affect the means you choose, and you can only select strategies and tactics that are appropriate to the troops at your disposal.
The DNC Is Preparing for the Worst in Chicago — Without the Help of the City’s Mayor
As Democrats plan their convention, they’ll have to address the elephant in the room: How to mitigate the threat of disruptions and work with a rookie mayor who unabashedly sympathizes with the protesters.
President Joe Biden’s top advisers are all too aware the ghosts of 1968 may haunt their convention here, but they’re grappling with a pair of more urgent and thoroughly modern-day challenges as summer nears: How far can they go in reprising their virtual 2020 convention to mitigate the threat of disruption inside the arena, and how will they navigate a rookie mayor who unabashedly sympathizes with protesters?
Trumpeting the success of their Covid-era convention four years ago, some in Biden’s orbit are aggressively pushing to make the 2024 conclave a hybrid production. That would mean in-person speeches from the president, party luminaries and rising stars to draw television attention alongside a mix of pre-recorded testimonials and videos from other parts of the country.
The goal: drive maximum viewership on television and the internet while minimizing live programming and openings for protest in Chicago’s United Center. This would mean moving party business, such as rules and platform votes, off the floor and denying would-be demonstrators a chance to seize on contentious debates.
The United Nations Couldn’t Be More Wrong When It Comes To Climate Change – They still haven’t learned their lesson.
For decades, politicians and climate activists have been setting deadlines for humanity, brazenly preaching that we have just a few years left to stave off our fiery doom. In fact, we were supposed to have passed the deadline for taking dramatic action to save the world in 2000, 2012, 2016 2020, and 2023.
The United Nations is now ramping up their rhetoric again, with climate executive secretary Simon Stiell boldly (and, apparently, not rhetorically) asking: “Who exactly has two years to save the world? The answer is every person on this planet.”
As usual, the U.N. couldn’t be more wrong when it comes to climate change. In fact, the science to which it demands blind loyalty shows there has never been a better time in human history to be alive.
One Obama energy advisor described our culture’s understanding of climate change as having “drifted so far out of touch with the actual science as to be absurdly, demonstrably false.” He was not wrong. While celebrities, activists, politicians, and left-leaning CEOs are crying that the sky is falling, data shows that “[c]limate-related disasters kill 99% fewer people” than they did a century ago. Even though the world’s population has quadrupled over the same time period, the risk presented by mild warming has grown smaller and smaller.
Interestingly, our resilience to climate-related disasters is improving at a far faster rate than deaths from other natural disasters like volcanic eruptions and earthquakes. Clearly, the weather isn’t the culprit here.
In fact, even if the U.N. and its climate cartel were right, there is remarkably little we could do anyway. The data models their scientists use to project future warming show that even cutting every drop of oil and every grain of coal from our society would change global temperatures by at most a few hundredths of a degree. Those models, by the way, have overshot warming every time, making them a highly suspect justification for spending trillions to force our society to make dramatic changes for climate change.
In fact, new studies cataloging 420,000 years of historical geological and weather data suggest that manmade greenhouse gas emissions are not strong enough to affect global temperatures.
Russia can lose this war
On Thursday Russia will celebrate Victory Day, its commemoration of the defeat of Nazi Germany in 1945. Domestically, this is nostalgia. In the 1970s, Soviet leader Leonid Brezhnev created a cult of victory. Russia under Putin has continued the tradition.
Abroad, this is intimidation. We are meant to think that Russia cannot lose.
And far too many of us, during Russia’s war of aggression in Ukraine, have believed that. In February 2022, when Russia undertook its full-scale invasion of its neighbor, the consensus was that Ukraine would fall within days.
Even today, when Ukraine has held its own for more than two years, the prevailing view among Russia’s friends in Congress and in the Senate is that Russia must eventually win. Moscow’s success is not on the battlefield, but in our minds.
Russia can lose. And it should lose, for the sake of the world — and for its own sake.
