Marxists’ favorite technique is the practice of blaming their opponents for the very behavior in which the Left is aggressively engaged. A prime example of such projection is the Democrats’ desperate post-debate efforts to defend President Biden by describing him as a man of “character,” in contrast to his opponent, Donald Trump, who they accuse…
Elections are not just about choosing a president. They’re also about policy choices. One of the most important this November is whether the United States will persist in policies that imperil the national security and the American people. Take the fundamental transformation of the military under the three Obama-Biden administrations. On July 4th, combat…
As we celebrate today the independence from an unrepresentative, unaccountable and tyrannical foreign government that forged a new nation dedicated instead to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness, we must not only thank God for those blessings. We must pray for his help as we strive to “keep” our Republic. That’s because enemies,…
An immortal Marx Brothers line was, “Who you gonna believe, me or your own eyes?” After last week’s presidential debate, it’s the Democrat party line as they insist Joe Biden is completely fit to be president, despite what we all saw for ourselves. That’s especially astounding given what the Democrats were themselves saying even…
Twenty years ago yesterday, Hong Kong was surrendered to the Chinese Communist Party. I was there, and the sense of impending doom was profound. And with good reason. Four years ago yesterday, the CCP began in earnest what Barack Obama would call a “fundamental transformation” of Hong Kong. Now, it’s just another enslaved Chinese…
Steve Bannon is a national treasure. Today, he becomes a political prisoner. My friend and valued colleague has been subjected to a Kafka-esque miscarriage of justice. He is to serve four months in federal prison for a misdemeanor. His ostensible crime was having contempt for the subpoena issued by a congressional committee that wrongfully insisted…
Two words describe last night’s presidential debate: Elder abuse. President Biden’s alarming physical appearance, peculiar affect and robotic performance confirmed what’s long been discernable: The man is of an age and mental condition that disqualifies him from serving the next four years in the world’s most demanding job. And those who insist that he run…
Tonight will see the earliest presidential debate in the history of such televised events. The timing raises the suspicion that, if President Biden’s widely documented cognitive disabilities are unmistakably on display, there will still be time for the Democratic Party to engineer a new ticket, replacing both him and his appalling vice president, Kamala Harris.…
House Speaker Mike Johnson confirmed last night what has long been obvious. He told Sean Hannity, “The January 6 committee was, we think, wrongfully constituted. We think the work was tainted. We think that they may have very well covered up evidence and maybe even more nefarious activities.” These findings draw on a rigorous…
This is Frank Gaffney with the Secure Freedom Minute. Surgeon General Vivek Murthy just declared “gun violence” a public health emergency. He wants “assault weapons” and magazines holding more than ten bullets banned. Fortunately, for those of us committed to the principle of self-defense and the unalienable, God-given right to “own and bear arms,” our…
Roughly a fifth of the U.S. Senate is comprised of Democrats and Independents up for reelection this fall. Each of them may soon cast a vote that will illuminate their attitudes towards some of the most divisive issues of our time. President Biden wants a radical leftist Oregon judge named Mustafa Taher Kasubhai to…
“Victims of jihad Unite.” That battle-cry should be heard globally as it represents the best hope for enabling people who are being persecuted by Sharia-supremacists – and those determined to spare them further harm – to join forces. The numbers are absolutely staggering. By some estimates, over 300 million Christians are experiencing “heavy persecution” – the…
Half-a-world apart, two imminent conflicts are on the cusp of going critical. Communist China apparently is prepared to have Hezbollah – the foreign legion of its Mideast proxy, Iran – engage in a full-on war with Israel. And the Chinese military is itself now physically attacking Philippine vessels at a place called Second Thomas Shoal.…
The arsonist tag-team of Xi Jinping and Vladimir Putin are busily striking sparks into Asian tinderboxes. The Russian dictator’s current visit to North Korea comes amidst relentless provocations by Kim Jong-un against the South that could precipitate conflict there at any time. Meanwhile, Communist China is provoking a fight with the Philippines, clearly testing…
Team Biden is feverishly trying to deflect attention from its appalling record on border insecurity. It would have us believe that Joe Biden: is committed to keeping illegal aliens out of the country; has just taken important steps to do that; and is being thwarted by Republican failure at the insistence of Donald Trump to…
Scott Perry is one of the most formidable members of the U.S. House of Representatives. I am proud to call him a cherished personal friend. Scott has devoted much of his life to public service as a Pennsylvania legislator and a combat pilot in the Army National Guard who retired after nearly four decades…
Today is Flag Day and an appropriate occasion to reflect on the diminished presence of warships and other vessels proudly displaying ours on the world’s oceans – and an ominous consequence: Freedom of the seas is being increasingly threatened by the presence instead of hostile powers’ navies and what amount to pirates in strategic choke…
What’s the single most debilitating of Joe Biden’s betrayals of America? Candidates include: destroying our borders, eviscerating our energy security, feeding inflation and enabling “global governance.” A particularly insidious contender is the prospect that Team Biden will end the dollar’s status as the world’s reserve currency. Every American will suffer from, for example, its…
Freedom’s flame burns a little less brightly today. Last night, America lost a man who loved liberty passionately and tirelessly used his enormous talents as an entertainer to help secure it. His name was Tony Lo Bianco and I was proud to call him a dear friend and mentor. In the course of a…
The UN Security Council yesterday unanimously approved a U.S.-sponsored resolution it claims will bring peace to the Gaza Strip and Israel’s northern border with Lebanon. To add insult to great strategic injury of our most important ally, the Biden administration insists this is an Israeli plan. In fact, this phased plan is a fraud. It is not Israel’s proposal. …
