As part of Joe Biden’s extreme open border policies, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has been deliberately ignoring federal law to avoid deporting convicted criminal aliens. This has led to a sharp drop in criminal aliens detained by DHS, according to a panel of the U.S. Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals. In a memorandum in September 2021 outlining new DHS guidance narrowing immigration enforcement priorities, Biden’s Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas said: “The fact an individual is a removable noncitizen therefore should not alone be the basis of an enforcement action against them.” However, as the Appeals Court noted, federal law…

With the number of illegal migrants flooding our southern border mushrooming daily under Biden-Harris, several Texas counties declared a border “invasion” on Tuesday in a move to pressure Governor Greg Abbott to do the same. Today Abbott stopped short of a formal declaration of an “invasion,” but ordered the Texas National Guard and the state police to begin apprehending migrants who illegally cross the border from Mexico and taking them back to ports of entry. A formal declaration, proponents argue, would allow the governor to enforce ‘war powers’ and have state law enforcement personnel not only take migrants back to…

After 18 months of pleading and begging Iran to return to the failed Obama-Biden 2015 nuclear deal, with concession after concession, Joe Biden may finally be realizing his profoundly weak approach has failed, and Iran may be nearer than ever to having nuclear weapons. But thanks to President Trump’s historic ‘Abraham Accords’ and the growing regional defenses between Israel and the Arab Gulf States they created; Biden may still have a viable ‘Plan B’ – a robust regional air and missile defense system. As the Situation Report by FP writes: …by the administration’s own account, the talks for a new…

Poetic Justice – Relatively underreported is the growing infighting among the radical left. Reminding me of the deadly battles between Mensheviks and Bolsheviks in the early days of the Russian revolution, the new left seems willing to eat their own in their quest to be the most woke. (RELATED: Cross-Dressing Biden Energy Official Once Defended Website Pimping Young Boys for Sex) “Mina’s World,” a left-wing coffee shop in Philadelphia celebrated as a “safe space” for members of the LGBTQ community, was shut down by its woke employees because the owners weren’t radical enough. The café, which opened two years ago,…

ANALYSIS – I have argued that one of the biggest collateral benefits of Vladimir Putin’s brutal invasion of Ukraine has been to unify and strengthen NATO, not only against Russia but also against Putin’s greatest ally, Communist China, led by Xi Jinping. While individual NATO countries were taking an increasingly hard line against China since President Donald Trump put confronting China front and center in U.S. strategy, Putin’s war (and China’s open support for Russia) pushed NATO to officially place China in its latest ‘Strategic Concept’ planning paper. This is a significant development. The U.S. can’t face China alone. It also highlights…

IN THE ‘YOU CAN’T MAKE THIS STUFF UP’ CATEGORY – Sam Brinton, the flamboyant, cross-dressing LGBTQ activist, now Joe Biden’s new Deputy Assistant Secretary for Spent Fuel and Waste Disposition in the Office of Nuclear Energy in the Department of Energy, once publicly defended a now-defunct website that ran an illegal prostitution ring that pimped young boys to older clients. Brinton, who recently tweeted a photo of himself with a shaved head and lipstick, wearing a woman’s red one-piece pantsuit and red, white and blue high heels, announcing his joining the Energy Department, bashed the Homeland Security agents who busted…

Based on China’s ownership claims and belligerent expansionist actions toward the entire South China Sea, it should not seem far-fetched that it is planning a similar takeover of the moon. And NASA’s chief is now saying just that. In a two-part analysis in August 2021, I wrote about the upcoming potential battle with China for a moon base site. I wrote that: “There may be only a few locations on the moon where it would make economic sense to build a base, said Bleddyn Bowen, a professor at the University of Leicester and author of War in Space: Strategy, Spacepower, Geopolitics, and this…
