This is Frank Gaffney with the Secure Freedom Minute. The man who promised to “fundamentally transform the United States of America” is back at it. In an address at Stanford University last week, former President Barack Obama called for the government to regulate free speech. Despite describing himself as “pretty close to a First Amendment…
“Have you eaten lately?” is a Chinese greeting rooted in centuries of famine, particularly under the Communist Party’s misrule. It may soon become something Americans ask one another, too. After all, world food shortages are on the rise, aggravated by serious disruptions of both Russian and Ukrainian wheat exports induced by Putin’s invasion. Shortfalls in…
An online dictionary defines the term “grooming” as “when a sexual or other kind of predator sets the stage for abusing another.” Such a definition certainly applies to the gangs of Pakistani immigrants in the United Kingdom and Jeffrey Epstein who “groomed” and sexually abused underage girls. Notwithstanding a ludicrous claim by a Republican political…
Kamala Harris yesterday added outer space to the portfolios in which she has demonstrated appallingly poor judgment and undermined America’s national security. She effectively declared the Biden administration would unilaterally disarm in the face of demonstrated – and very dangerous – Chinese and Russian anti-satellite capabilities. This initiative exemplifies the sort of naivete – if…
Yesterday marked the start of Holy Week in Ukraine. It may be the last on earth for large numbers of Ukrainian civilians Russian dictator Vladimir Putin will try to murder in the days ahead. Whether that happens could depend in part on us. Putin clearly believes he can use with impunity missiles, aircraft, a new…
The plot sounds like something plucked from a spy thriller. Two operatives claiming to be U.S. security personnel, but suspected of ties with foreign enemies, were recently arrested. They had stashed a small arsenal in a luxury apartment near the U.S. Capitol from which they were cultivating relationships with White House Secret Service personnel. Who…
Of all Joe Biden’s wrecking operations, the one that may do the most enduring damage is his destruction of our southern border. Since he became president, 3 million illegal aliens have gained access to our country, the largesse of its social safety net and the opportunity – if they choose to do so – to…
Facebook’s Mark Zuckerberg will not be spending some $400 million to “facilitate” this year’s election. His decision may have had something to do with last week’s roll-out of a powerful video indictment of the impact of a similar donation by Zuckerberg and his wife in the 2020 race. The movie is called “Rigged: The Zuckerberg…
President Biden announced yesterday a new initiative, ostensibly in response to surging violent crime rates across the country. Its centerpiece is a set of new restrictions on so-called “ghost guns” – a made-up descriptor for home-made weapons. The object, though, is called a “gun-grab.” This is problematic on two scores. First, interfering with legal gun…
It is often said that “Elections have consequences.” Rarely, though, has an election in one country had more profound consequences for another than the change from Donald Trump to Joe Biden has had on Israel. Before President Trump left office, the Jewish State had benefited greatly from his commitment to its sovereignty, security and right…
Conventional wisdom, supported by recent polling, says Republicans will succeed in taking back the House and possibly the Senate in November’s elections. The Senate’s GOP caucus yesterday showed how they can still lose. Rather than utilize the full thirty hours afforded them for post-cloture debate on the nomination of Ketanji Brown Jackson to be an…
House Democrats have just added to the list of partisan opponents they are determined to defame, bankrupt and otherwise destroy. Their majority yesterday endorsed the January 6th Committee’s request for criminal prosecution of two more of President Donald Trump’s key subordinates, his Deputy Chief of Staff Dan Scavino and trade adviser Peter Navarro. Others may…
Last night, Tucker Carlson announced a death watch for the Biden presidency. In one of the most insightful, and pathetic, video clips in American political history, he showed the President of the United States being shunned by former President Barack Obama and, God help us, future President Kamala Harris – and everybody else – at…
There’s something surreal about the unfolding nightmare along America’s southwestern border. As a direct result of Biden administration policies, roughly three million people from all over the world entered the United States illegally over the past 12 months. 200,000 of them entered in March alone. And that number will soon swell dramatically, thanks to President…
For several generations, the radical left has been relentlessly engaged in what cultural Marxists call “a long march through the institutions.” This program of political warfare has systematically penetrated and undermined virtually every pillar of our Republic in order, as Barack Obama put it, to “fundamentally transform the United States of America.” The revolutionaries’ long…
If freedom-loving people have the opportunity to write the history of our time, they will doubtless decry the immense help that American elites have given to their country’s mortal enemy: the Chinese Communist Party. By some estimates, Wall Street mavens like BlackRock CEO Larry Fink have transferred more than $3 trillion of U.S. investors’ money,…
“No borders. No walls. No USA at all.” That’s the rallying cry – and the agenda – of the radical leftists who have worked with fellow travelers in the Biden administration to open America’s southern border. Now, they are celebrating the announcement that Team Biden is going to remove at the end of May the…
You can tell a lot about a country by how its elites treat children and those who mistreat them. So, it’s ominous that America’s identity politics-obsessed left is promoting a new, favored category: so-called “minor-attracted persons.” This odious practice of excusing pedophiles, child-abusers and sexual predators has been brought to the fore by the Senate’s…
It is hard to overstate the U.S. government’s incoherence with respect to an extremely fraught topic. President Biden declared last week that Russian dictator Vladimir Putin “cannot remain in power.” The White House immediately claimed this was not a call for regime change. But yesterday, Mr. Biden insisted he wasn’t backing away from his original…
In Poland last week, President Biden threw rhetorical matches into a potential nuclear tinder box. His suggestion that the 82nd Airborne would soon be in Ukraine and his subsequent declaration that Russian dictator Vladimir Putin “cannot remain in power” invited preemptive action by the Kremlin. Our PresentDangerChina.org webinar last week established that, given Putin’s doctrine,…
