On June 24, the U.S. Department of Justice filed an unprecedented complaint against all 15 of the federal district court judges in Maryland, as well as the clerk of the Maryland district court, for engaging in what Attorney General Pam Bondi calls an “egregious example of unlawful judicial overreach into the Executive Branch’s ability to enforce and administer federal [immigration] law.”

Election Interference Exposed

July 6th, 2025|

The public release of FBI emails by Senate Judiciary Chairman Senator Chuck Grassley about China interference in American elections answers the question people have asked for five years – was the 2020 election free of foreign interference?

Due Process and Aliens: What They Are and Are Not Entitled to in Immigration Proceedings

July 6th, 2025|

Immigration cases are civil rather than criminal proceedings, and aliens have limited due process rights as defined by Congress and Supreme Court precedents. Those rights differ depending on whether aliens are trying to enter this country or are already here, legally or illegally, as well as their visa or other status.

The Red-Green Alliance in America

June 30th, 2025|

The battle lines are being drawn; it has less to do with political parties but rather two very different and competing philosophies of governance. Obama, Mamdani, Ocasio-Cortez, Omar, Tlaib, Brandon Johnson, Newsome, Karen Bass, the progressive socialist Marxist left, and Islamic jihadists offer us tyranny. I chose Liberty...

The Leftist Definition of Presidential Powers

June 25th, 2025|

I hear that we are going to have "No Kings 2.0" protests all across the Country on our 249th Independence Day. But if you seek to follow the Constitution, you're a dictator, tyrant, and evil. Nope, you cannot reason why that level of stuck on stupid.

When an Opportunity Presents Itself

June 23rd, 2025|

Iran is the number one sponsor of Islamic terrorism. During the first Trump administration, Iran was virtually bankrupt due to economic sanctions. There was no ability to fund its major proxies such as Hamas, Hezbollah, and the Houthis. Then came Joe "Autopen" Biden and a return to appeasement and enabling by way of easing sanctions and even providing billions of dollars. And what was the result?

A National Character

June 18th, 2025|

Honestly, I am doggone done with watching useful idiots burn our American Flag. If that is truly how these imbeciles feel, then happily find a nearby airport and catch an international flight and depart the AO!

What’s the Point?

June 16th, 2025|

What's the point? The point is simple to comprehend. The progressive socialist leftists care more about their open borders agenda to "fundamentally transform" America than YOU and your safety and security.

This We’ll Defend

I just finished ordering a birthday cake for someone turning 250 years old this Saturday...and no, they are not receiving social security.

Reflections on Legacy

June 9th, 2025|

Legacy, preserving, protecting, supporting, and defending the time-honored and hard-fought-for principles and values of our great Constitutional Republic and passing it on to subsequent generations. It is the only way to pass on the individual liberty, freedoms, and rights we enjoy...but it takes men and women of courage and honor to take the field.

ACRU Aids Second Amendment Win!

June 6th, 2025|

In Smith & Wesson Brands, Inc. v. Estados Unidos Mexicanos, the U.S. Supreme Court unanimously held that Mexico failed to plausibly allege that American gun manufacturers aided and abetted criminal activity in Mexico. As a result, the Mexican government’s claim for $10 billion will be dismissed.

Is Inciting Violence Free Speech?

June 4th, 2025|

Calling for violence is not free speech. Setting people on fire is not freedom of expression or a means to petition our government for redress of grievances.

Rendezvous with Destiny

June 2nd, 2025|

Today, the question that stands before us is, with what destiny shall our Constitutional Republic rendezvous?

Accountability

May 28th, 2025|

NO one should fear holding anyone accountable based upon the law...and not some nebulous concept called "social justice". Honor Memorial Day! Hold those who violate our Constitution accountable.

The Leftist/Jihadist Cult of Hate and Death

May 26th, 2025|

Targeting anyone for violence based upon their race or religion is unacceptable in our Constitutional Republic, and supporting it is reprehensible. America is a battlefield now, an ideological one, but the reality is that some see it as one of threats, intimidation, coercion, and violence.

Honor Memorial Day

May 21st, 2025|

Maybe this Memorial Day, first, share the oath that these brave men and women took with your loved ones. Then find the time to go and say to them, in that quiet space known as a National Cemetery, "Honor Memorial Day."

Injunctions and Immunity

May 19th, 2025|

Today's Democrat party, a coalition of socialists, Islamic jihadists, and Marxists, is bereft of ideas. Their only recourse is to be an impediment to the success of our Nation. It is time we, as true American Patriots, meet them eye to eye and defend the ultimate "I" word that defines our Republic. Independence.

Resistance = Insurrection

May 12th, 2025|

One does not pet a rattlesnake on the head; therefore, it is high time we stop coddling and dismissing abhorrent and violent behavior.
