Caravan Supporters
Insult Legal Immigrants
By Brigitte
Gabriel
Another
liberal college campus is making its voice heard in the ongoing and
controversial immigration debate. Breitbart is reporting that the University of
California Berkeley “student government voted to financially fund the migrant
caravan in a resolution passed by the student senate” last week. The
$1,500 in funds for the student organization Central Americans For Empowerment
will help with migrants’ “legal fees and health services.” Besides disrespecting
the rule of law and the protection of borders, these students and other migrant
caravan supporters like them are disgracing and insulting every legal immigrant who became a citizen of
the United States through a lawful
process. A member of America’s legal immigrant family is New York Times best-selling author Brigitte Gabriel, who in her latest
book, “RISE: In Defense of Judeo-Christian Values and Freedom,” writes
extensively about how immigration policies are fundamentally changing the
nation.
Tariffs
are Working
By Jeff Ferry
Since January, the Trump administration has implemented five
major tariff policies, on the solar panel, washing machine, steel, and aluminum
industries, as well as the so-called Section 301 tariffs affecting $250 billion
worth of Chinese imports, chiefly in intermediate manufactured goods. And so
far, the evidence is that the tariffs are working. Economic growth is up,
inflation is under control, many of the tariffed industries are enjoying strong
recoveries in output, profits, and employment. And as optimism spreads across
manufacturing, other manufacturing sectors are also enjoying better growth than
they’ve seen in years. There is such a constant onslaught of criticism of
tariffs, and “warnings” about how they will damage the U.S. and world economy
that I can’t blame anybody for believing tariffs are bad. But the truth is that
if you look at the evidence, tariffs are contributing to the growth of our
economy this year. [more...]
President Trump is Fighting the War on Waste
By Adam Andrzejewski, Author of Operation Drain the Swamp
Just a few weeks ago, we ran a two-page ad in the Wall Street
Journal and USA Today urging the President to wage a war on waste. We
asked him to do three things: 1. Post all White House expenditures online; 2.
Cut agency waste by 5%; and 3. Report progress to the public. President Trump is listening to our demands. Just
28 days after our open letter published, the president ordered his agency heads
to cut the fat and put an end to the fraud, waste, and abuse. This is a massive
victory in our war on waste. [more...]
Alaska
and America's Fragile Foothold
By Lowell Ponte
The great earthquake on Friday struck just north of Anchorage at
8:30 a.m., with dawn more than an hour away. Its magnitude 7.2 tremor lasted
only 30 seconds but triggered more than 190 aftershocks as large as magnitude
5.8 over the next 24 hours. The quake swarm damaged buildings, cut off
electricity to thousands, and tore roads apart; but according to early reports
it miraculously neither killed nor severely injured anyone. A large earthquake
is an awe-inspiring experience; it shows you how the material things we trade
years of our lives for, such as a home, can be shaken to pieces in an instant.
It teaches you how to survive in a land where the very earth you stand upon is
not reliably stable. [more...]
Michelle Obama is NOT Running for
President
By Karen Kataline
The former First Lady
made headlines recently when she declared once again that she’s not running for
president. She explained it this way: “My path has never been politics,” she
said. “I just happened to marry somebody whose passion was politics. Just because
he likes it doesn’t mean that I like it!” I found that curious since she has
also said, “any woman who voted against Hillary Clinton voted against their own
voice.” Like many of today’s socialist elites, Mrs. Obama reserves certain
rights for herself that she can’t imagine allowing for others. [more...]
