Accountability

The Leftist/Jihadist Cult of Hate and Death

May 26th, 2025|

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.

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

Our Enduring Constitution

May 7th, 2025|

The Gun Issue no One is Talking About

April 30th, 2025|

My message to the progressive socialist leftist Marxists is that we will not surrender our weapons. As long as y'all continue to support open borders, releasing criminal illegal immigrants, and standing shoulder to shoulder with Islamic jihadists, we shall resist.

What is a Sanctuary City…or State?

We are struggling, well, some folks are, with understanding that illegal means illegal. If you have committed an action that is illegal, that means you have committed a crime. I

Delusional Judicial Review

If you are not a citizen of our Constitutional Republic, and violated our laws by entering illegally, under what authority are you entitled to stay, and have your "day in court?"

How Do You Wanna Fight China?

April 15th, 2025|

I say we fight the ChiComs here and now and bring them to their knees economically—that we rally an entire world against them and their cohorts. That we produce, manufacture, and export our goods, services, and energy resources. This is our moment. Failure is not an option!

The Only Thing We Have to Fear…

April 8th, 2025|

We can ill afford to continue to be a Nation that does policy and strategy in election cycles, only looking out 2-4 years. Leadership is about having vision and the courage to speak the truth to the people as to what they need to hear.

Tesla Terrorism

April 3rd, 2025|

Tesla terrorism threatens the security of our Nation; we have a duty and responsibility to see its end. If not, then we are complicit and giving this abhorrent behavior a pass.

The Pot Calling the Kettle Black

April 1st, 2025|

Down south, I loved how the old folks could come up with the most insightful colloquial sayings that provided immense wisdom. Two of my Dad's favorites were "An empty wagon makes a lot of noise" and "A hit dog will holler."
