⚠️ This is a Patriotic Public Service Announcement (PPSA) ⚠️ The radical Left has mandated June as LGBTQ etc. Pride Month. And we will all now be bombarded everywhere with rainbow flags and leftist sexual diversity propaganda for the next 30 days straight. But just because you are patriotic, straight or don’t have gender dysphoria, doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy the month of June. You too can celebrate this month as a proud member of the LGBFJB (Let’s Go Brandon F*** Joe Biden) Community. Yes. It’s still a thing as long as Joe is in the White House and not…

ANALYSIS – As the movie “Top Gun: Maverick” takes the cinematic world by storm, Communist China continues its breakneck speed effort to develop a blue ocean navy to challenge America’s mastery of the seas. (RELATED: ‘Top Gun: Maverick’ – Movie Irks China by Bringing Back Taiwan and Japan Flags on Flight Jacket) Based on recent satellite imagery and news reports, a shipyard in Shanghai appears ready to launch China’s third aircraft carrier, the Type 003, with the launch coinciding with the Dragon Boat Festival. This would be China’s first carrier semi-comparable to similar U.S. warships. I wrote about this ship in November. The newest…

New data from the Census Bureau and Bureau of Labor Statistics show a dramatic increase in the number of foreign-born persons in the United States under Team Biden is largely driven by illegal immigrants. This is mostly due to President Biden’s quickly reversing most of President Trump’s effective border control and immigration policies. The data analyzed in a report by the Center for Immigration Studies (CIS) shows there are now 47 million foreign-born persons living in the U.S. as of April 2022, the most ever recorded in any U.S. government survey or census. According to CIS, this percentage of foreign-born persons as a…

ANALYSIS – In the wake of the latest school massacre by a crazed killer in Texas last week, where 19 children and two teachers were brutally murdered by the gun-wielding lunatic, commonsense proposals to increase security and otherwise harden schools to protect our children are gaining steam. As expected though, Democrats in general, and President Biden in particular aren’t on board. With Democrats again leveraging this tragedy to push a radical gun control agenda, Republicans are focusing on the root problems of crime and mental illness, and on making schools safer by making them less vulnerable targets. When asked about…

ANALYSIS – Some of the same group of Democrat intelligence experts (aka partisan hacks) that spewed disinformation about the Hunter Biden laptop being a Russian intelligence operation, are now paid shills for the leftist Democrat disinformation industry known as Big Tech. As I wrote about then, by falsely claiming the Hunter laptop was Russian disinformation, “over 50 former senior former U.S. intelligence officials played a disgraceful part in this partisan disinformation charade to deliberately misinform the American public prior to the 2020 election.” In their latest foray, compromised and discredited former U.S. intelligence officials such as Leon Panetta, James Clapper and Mike Morrell,…

Bashed mercilessly back in 2019 for kowtowing to Communist China by removing flags of Taiwan and Japan from Tom Cruise’s flight jacket in a preview clip, the movie now shows both flags in their full glory. Is Hollywood tired of bending to China’s will? The flags were part of a Far East Cruise patch commemorating the 1963-64 deployment by the USS Galveston off Japan and Taiwan, worn by Tom Cruise’s character Pete Mitchell (aka Maverick) on his leather flight jacket in the 1986 original “Top Gun” movie. In the preview clip for the movie in 2019, those two historically accurate flags were replaced by generic…

ANALYSIS – Since Vladimir Putin’s unjustified naked aggression against Ukraine began, I have been arguing with some conservative colleagues who insist the war in Ukraine is hyped-up or a distraction. They say that Russia is not the real enemy, China is, or that Ukraine is not as pure as the narrative portrays, and they are sometimes correct. (RELATED: Is Putin Using Tucker Carlson to Promote His Russian War Propaganda?) But, sometimes it is just difficult to admit that your political foes are right about anything. And yes, even a broken clock is right twice a day. And helping Ukraine defeat this…
