COMMENTARY AND OP-EDS
The Futility of Reasoning with the Progressive Socialist Left
Biden and his terrorizing flying monkeys believe that the Thursday night speech was phenomenal, brilliant, and spot on.
The Real Threat to Democracy
The two foundations of our Constitutional Republic are the rule of law -- the constitution itself -- and the regard for individual rights, freedoms, and liberties.
Von Spakovsky: Voter Fraud Cases Continue to Occur
We recently added nine new cases to the Heritage Election Fraud Database, bringing the total number of entries of proven instances of voter fraud in the database to 1,374. The mounting collection of cases continue to disprove the narrative that voter fraud is not real and that further election integrity measures are not needed.
Von Spakovsky: Census Bureau Admits Overcounting 7 Blue States, Just 1 Red State
In a shocking report, the U.S. Census Bureau recently admitted that it overcounted the populations of eight states and undercounted the populations of six states in the 2020 census. All but one of the states overcounted is a blue state, and all but one of the undercounted states is red.
Constitutional Rights v. Ideological Rights
The left has embraced a concept of government-guaranteed attainment of happiness and decides, based upon their ideology, what that happiness is.
Allen West: The Republican Party Needs Leadership And a Clear Agenda
The Republican party is not rallying Americans around a clear message in the run up to the midterms. You cannot just sit back and say, “vote against the other guys, they suck.” We all know that the progressive socialist Marxist left (aka the Democrat party) sucks--that is a blinding flash of the obvious. But people want to vote for something, not just against.
Von Spakovsky: Ahead of Midterms, 14 States Improve Election Integrity Laws
With primaries underway and with midterms and other fall ballot contests looming, multiple states are demonstrating a commitment to ensuring that their elections remain worthy of public confidence.
The Path
At the ACRU, we reject the philosophy of failure, we will never surrender our constitutional rights.
Allen West: If At First You Don’t Succeed… Keep Doing Stupid Stuff
We all grew up understanding the maxim,"if at first you don't succeed, try, try again." However, that maxim was intended to provide encouragement to learn from previous failures while showing perseverance. In the military we were taught to improvise, adapt, and overcome. Sadly, today there are those who have embraced Albert Einstein's pure definition of insanity, "Do the same thing over and over again, expecting different results." Those people have evidenced themselves to be the progressive socialist left, aka the Democrat party, the political establishment, and their media accomplices.
Garland and Wray Must Be Impeached
The recent efforts of the Department of Justice (DOJ) and Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) to raid the home of a former president and seize the cell phone of a sitting Congressman Scott Perry (R-Penn.) have undermined the rule of law in America. In overseeing these actions, U.S. Attorney General Merrick Garland and FBI Director Christopher Wray have grossly failed in their mission to oversee an impartial and equal application of the law. Accordingly, they must be impeached.
Needed: Resolute American Patriots
The battle lines have been drawn. There is an ideological Civil War that has happened here in the United States of America.
von Spakovsky: Non-citizens voting in California: Judge says no, even in left-wing state
Sometimes, common sense can prevail – even in far-out California. Last week, California Superior Court Judge Richard B. Ulmer Jr. ruled that only U.S. citizens have the right to vote. In this, he echoed an earlier ruling by the New York Supreme Court.
Ken Blackwell: Biden is Turning America ‘into a Police State’
In the wake of the FBI’s raid of former President Trump’s home, Ambassador Ken Blackwell told Breitbart News that President Biden is turning America “into a police state.” Following the FBI’s raid of former President Trump’s house, Ambassador Blackwell told Breitbart News exclusively, “For the first time in American history, a president’s administration has sent armed federal agents to raid the personal home of his predecessor, who is also a leader of the opposition party.”
Allen West: The Unconstitutional Responses to America’s Illegal Immigration Invasion
Just a few weeks ago I wrote a missive here presenting the case as to why we have an invasion on our southern border. I live in Texas which shares 1,254 miles of border with a failed state controlled by a transnational narco-criminal terrorist organization. And if you speak to the people along the Texas southern border, as I recently did in Hondo, they will confide in you that the narco-terrorists we refer to as the Mexican cartels have extended their span of control to our side of the border.
Today’s FBI Partisans Tarnish Agency’s Already Damaged Image
The FBI is damaging its credibility with the American people. The latest revelations from Sen. Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, about the political partisans who occupy the ranks of the most powerful law enforcement agency in the country are, if true, deeply disturbing.
The Latest Federal Takeover of Elections Violates Federal Law
Democrats haven’t stopped trying to take over elections, they just have new tactics to do so under voters’ noses.Employees throughout the federal government who are carrying out President Joe Biden’s executive order directing them to get involved in state elections are likely all violating the Anti-Deficiency Act, besides interfering in the election process and using federal resources in what seems to be a get-out-the-vote operation for the party in power in the White House.
They Serve Us . . . Who Will Protect Them?
ACRU believes that we must protect those who serve us, and we need your voices to amplify that message.
Ed Meese and Ken Blackwell: The Most Despicable Form of Vote Fraud
We celebrate patriotic senior citizens and the invaluable contributions they have made to the financial strength and fundamental freedoms we enjoy as Americans. In turn, we must take every action to ensure the integrity and intent of our seniors’ political choices at a time when they are at risk to be targets of vote fraud. We are calling on fellow Americans to demonstrate their gratitude and respect for seniors by helping to protect the sanctity of their votes.
Allen West: I Am an American Soldier
There are times when we need to be reminded of where the real greatness of America lies. It is not with politicians, political pundits, and prognosticators, and it is certainly not with those who seek to fundamentally transform the greatest nation the world has ever known. But what has made America this great nation? It is simple—the men and women whom we may never know who will stand guard on freedom's ramparts and say, “sleep well, I am on watch.”
Hans von Spakovsky: DOJ’s Partisan Shell Game Raises Ethics Issues About Pamela Karlan
As a tenured law professor at Stanford University, Pamela Karlan earned $1 million a year. We now know that she stayed on the Stanford payroll, at that same impressive salary, during the entire 17 months she served as the Justice Department’s principal deputy assistant attorney general for civil rights. Ms. Karlan left her DOJ post on July 1, just one day before the department delivered documents to the American Accountability Foundation under a Freedom of Information Act request that revealed her unorthodox and ethically suspect arrangement with the Biden administration.
