DNI Releases Secret Biden Plan Raising Serious Civil Liberties Concerns

By John Lott, Worldwide Expert on Guns & Crime

Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard has declassified a shocking plan by former President Joe Biden’s administration for dealing with domestic terrorists. Gabbard released a June 2021 document titled "Strategic Implementation Plan for Countering Domestic Terrorism." But despite the release receiving over 6.3 million views on X by Monday morning, the major media has ignored the document. The newly declassified document reveals that the actions were part of a coordinated action from early in the administration across a wide range of government agencies to target "domestic terrorists." To combat this domestic threat, the Biden administration advocated censorship, closing people's accounts at banks or financial institutions, and gun control. [more...]


Fixing the Fed, Part II

By Todd Sheets, Author of 2008: What Really Happened

In Part I, we discussed how the Fed's ability to manipulate interest rates gives it an unmatched power to simultaneously influence all sectors of the economy in all regions of the country. In this post, I show how the Fed came to wield this vast power, what the consequences have been, and how this has contributed to many of the challenges we face today. Since its creation in 1913, the Fed has played a primary role in causing the worst financial crises of the past century. Even as it has caused one major problem after another, its power and influence over the economy have continued to expand. By doubling down on its failed policies over the past decade, the Fed has once again inflated asset prices to historically high levels. [more...]


The Most Remarkable Thing About the Trump/Zelensky Sit-Down at the Pope's Funeral

By Robert Spencer, Author of Antisemitism: History and Myth

In their first tête-à-tête since the fireworks in the Oval Office on Feb. 28, President Trump and Ukrainian President Zelensky sat down for a remarkable fifteen-minute meeting at the Vatican Saturday, where both heads of state were attending the funeral of Pope Francis. The Saturday meeting was striking for several reasons, not least because it was just Trump and Zelensky talking things out alone. No aides or translators were present, and while photographers took some terrific photos of the two leaders in intense discussion, reporters were not buzzing around performing their usual act of asking questions designed to show the world what an awful person Donald Trump is. [more...]


Executive Authority on National Security Trumps Judicial Activism

By Scott Powell, Author of Rediscovering America

Who would have thought that the Constitutional crisis and breakdown in America would come from people in robes? Most believe that judges should stay in their lane of upholding and resolving the law, not legislating, or interfering with the executive branch of government. On April 19, the Supreme Court ruled that President Trump does not have the Constitutional Article II power over immigration enforcement to conduct the planned deportations of dangerous Venezuelan gang members under the Alien Enemies Act. So, it is not just unelected and Soros-funded radical federal judges but also the Supreme Court that is usurping the constitutional powers granted to the duly elected president of the United States. [more...]


DOJ Civil Rights Lawyers Resign Rather Than Fight Antisemitism

By Daniel Greenfield, Author of Domestic Enemies

It's revealing how the DOJ's civil rights lawyers would rather resign than fight antisemitism and how the top two ex-liberal papers in the country now dismissively class antisemitism together with other things they believe that conservatives made up. Hard to see how they could have done a better job of demonstrating what a farce civil rights has become. [more...]


Groundbreaking Animated Film 'The King of Kings'

By James Hirsen, NY Times Bestselling Author, International Business Attorney, News Analyst & Cultural Commentator

The entertainment business community is once again having to come to terms with the massive appeal and box-office success of faith-based films. "The King of Kings," the biblical movie in animated form, has been a blessed bonus and has not only brought in significant grosses in its second weekend, it is also enjoying an unprecedented 10% drop in revenue from its debut weekend, which is minuscule in comparison to the customary drop of 35% or more during second week releases. [more...]


Wall Street Underwrites China's Top EV Battery Maker - House China Committee Pushes Back

By Kenneth Rapoza, Reporter/Columnist for Coalition for a Prosperous America

It's hard for the captains of American finance to quit China. They've wanted the Chinese securities market opened to them and for years worked the back rooms in Washington and Beijing to make it happen. Today, U.S. financial firms can invest directly in Shanghai and Shenzhen-listed stocks and solicit business in China without needing a domestic partner. It was a dream realized. It's been tough going since 2016 with investment restrictions imposed by both Presidents Trump and Biden. And now, the House Select Committee on the Chinese Communist Party has thrown a wrench into the plans of two of Wall Street's most powerful banks. [more...]

Democrats Demand Proof of Life?

By Greg Rabidoux, Award-Winning Filmmaker, Author & Cultural Commentator

WH press Secretary Karoline Leavitt made it clear yesterday at her press briefing, this notion, this crazy fever dream of Democrats that they will somehow demand "Proof of Life" from the El Salvadorian "hostage holders" and extricate Abrego, aka "A Maryland Man" in some daring Tom Cruise-style rescue from the clutches of that evil right-winger President Bukele is just that - lunacy. Nonetheless, the Democrats, a party with no leader, no solutions, no coherent message, yet a party who never met an MS-13 or Tren de Aragua gangbanger they didn't instantly fall in love with, now wants a Russell Crowe-style "Proof of Life" for Abrego - a man who, not once but twice was acknowledged by a court to indeed be an MS-13 Gang member. El Salvado understandably denied these "4 Democratic Amigos" (Frost, Ansari, Dexter, and Garcia) their coveted "Proof of Life" demand because well, unlike in the movie of the same name, 1) Abrego wasn't kidnapped, 2) El Salvado isn't demanding a $650,000 ransom, and 3) Abrego is not an innocent American businessman being held as a hostage - he is a criminal, not a Hollywood hero.

Fixing the Fed

By Todd Sheets, Author of 2008: What Really Happened

President Trump’s escalating feud with Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell has suddenly taken center stage. As a headline in yesterdays The Wall Street Journal online noted, “Dow Drops 972 Points, Dollar Slides as Trump Renews Fed Attacks.” I agree with the President that the Fed has played a primary role in creating many of our current problems, that it has not been held accountable for its mistakes, and that it is deeply in need of reform. But I disagree with the President on what exactly those problems are and how they should be fixed. President Trump is frustrated with the Fed for failing to ease monetary policy to help markets adjust to his new tariff proposals. His threatened solution is to make the Fed more accountable to the President so that he can push for lower interest rates. [more...]


Yet More Worthless Public Health 'Research' On Guns

By John Lott, Worldwide Expert on Guns & Crime

News headlines across the country repeated a University of Colorado public health study claiming that “1 out of every 15 American adults have been at a mass shooting.” That figure suggests 18 million Americans have witnessed a mass shooting firsthand and 5.6 million were “injured” -outrageous claims that fall apart under basic scrutiny. Yet reporters keep repeating this claim without question or asking any researchers who might be critical of the survey. After all the misinformation public health researchers spread during COVID, the public should now view their research with greater skepticism. But the legacy media remains a different story. They continue to embrace claims that fit their preferred narrative, showing little sign of questioning or verifying the evidence behind them. [more...]


The Barack Obama of the Roman Catholic Church Has Died

By Robert Spencer, Author of Antisemitism: History and Myth

Pope Francis worked to weaken, and ultimately destroy, the Roman Catholic Church and Christianity itself.

The twelve-year reign of Jorge Mario Bergoglio, Pope Francis, as the head of the Roman Catholic Church began shortly after the strange and still-unexplained resignation of Pope Benedict XVI, and seven weeks into the second term of Barack Obama as president of the United States. It was fitting that Obama was president during the first four years of Francis’ papacy, as Francis was the Barack Obama of popes: just as Obama did as president of the United States, Pope Francis worked to weaken, instead of strengthen, the institution he was leading, and to provide aid and comfort to its enemies, while confusing and maddening its ardent supporters.

It’s Great to Be “Made in America” Again - Trump’s Tariff Play is Smart, Strategic, and Already Working

By Judd Dunning, Talk Show Host, Bestselling Author

President Trump’s latest pledge to slap broad tariffs on foreign imports has elites in Brussels, Beijing, and even Washington predicting catastrophe. They couldn’t be more wrong. In reality, Trump’s tariff play is a smart and strategic move – one that’s already showing results for American workers and our economy. We’ve seen this movie before. When Trump first imposed tariffs on Chinese goods and steel imports in his first term, the establishment pundits and Obama-era economists wailed about impending trade wars and recession. Instead, the opposite happened. [more...]


Easter - the Resurrection of Jesus - Transformed the World Forever

By Scott Powell, Author of Rediscovering America

Easter may have come and gone, yet the fact remains: Jesus’ resurrection forever changed the world and continues to have a great effect on our lives. Across cultures throughout human history, people have sought to flee oppression and escape persecution. A recurring theme in Western literature and in modern classics such as Superman and Disney originals, which revolve around the struggle between good and evil, is the need and critical role for a rescuer or savior. Easter is the celebration of the finished work of the Messiah Jesus Christ, the ultimate rescuer and savior for mankind, who sacrificed His life to provide forgiveness of sin -- enabling all who believe in Christ to have a direct relationship with God. That no other religion makes the claim that it was founded by a messiah makes Jesus the most revolutionary figure of human history. [more...]


Illegal Aliens Are Self-Deporting

By Daniel Greenfield, Author of Domestic Enemies

Self-deportation alone is not going to solve America’s illegal alien problem, but it can help, and even the media’s getting around to reporting on it. However, many of these people never really left Mexico. They function more like guest workers, which, thanks to California’s pro-illegal alien system, allows them endless welfare benefits. Mexico... land of the free. If they have five acres of land, it’s likely they’ve been going back and forth for a while. Now they’re going home... over to NYC. [more...]

Angry at Trump's Tariffs, China Threatens to Ban Hollywood

By Greg Rabidoux, Award-Winning Filmmaker, Author & Cultural Commentator

It's not the first time and it won't be the last. But I don't blame Xi Jinping; I blame Biden.

Back in the days before everything you picked up had a "Made in China" label, China admired Hollywood. Mao's Communist propagandists openly marveled at Hollywood's technology, admired its storytelling prowess, and lusted at its power to shape popular culture. But they also feared Hollywood's hedonism. Today, Xi Jinping is simply continuing the ancient Chinese tradition of deception and manipulation. They ban Hollywood movies when it suits them, agree to "fair reciprocal cinematic trade" when it suits them, and then break both when it serves their greater Communist good. [more...]


On Tariffs and Trade – A Tale of Two Empires

By Todd Sheets , Author of 2008: What Really Happened

We all know by now, China and the U.S. have become embroiled in a major trade war. In this post, we’ll discuss a tale of two authoritarian empires – the Soviet Union and China. Our goal will be to understand how we ended the Cold War by brilliantly defeating the Soviets without, as Margret Thatcher put it, having to fire a bullet - even as we made a series of miscalculations that allowed China to rise from the ash heap of its own failures to challenge us anew. In addition, we’ll look closely at the real source of the cheap labor pool China’s communist party has exploited to fund its rise on the global stage. Let’s begin by briefly reviewing how we defeated the Soviet Union and then we’ll turn to China. [more...]

Trump is Just Doing What Numerous Presidents Promised to Do

By Robert Spencer, Author of Antisemitism: History and Myth

And he's enraged the Left by actually doing it when they issue empty promises.

To hear Democrats tell it, the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) is a monumental crime against the American people, who simply have to have a bloated, wasteful federal bureaucracy confiscating a significant portion of their income, or they simply cannot survive. Reality is, as is always the case when it comes to the left, different. In reality, Donald Trump and Elon Musk aren’t doing anything that numerous other presidents haven’t promised to do. The difference here is that Trump’s promises weren’t empty. [more...]


An Upside-Down World Foolishly Protests DOGE, Tariffs

By Scott Powell, Author of Rediscovering America

There was once a time when a new U.S. presidential administration would be granted a “honeymoon period” to set an agenda and establish new policies. Not so for President Donald Trump. Instead, the knives were being drawn even before his first inauguration in 2017, and guns were being drawn before his second term electoral victory in November 2024. But behind these battle lines, Trump’s enemies are losing the war. Protests against Elon Musk and Donald Trump reveal the false and disingenuous nature of this "hands off" movement. In protest movements, it is important to differentiate between the ringleaders - those who want radical change and destruction - and the rank-and-file sign-carriers, who get used by the ringleaders to project numbers and the image of popular support. [more...]


Dems Rally for ‘Non-Violent’ ‘Palestinian’ Columbia Student Who Writes About Collecting Bombs

By Daniel Greenfield, Author of Domestic Enemies

Now that a judge ruled that Columbia U’s Mahmoud Khalil can be deported, and Momodou Taal who urged taking a cue for Hamas has self-deported, Democrats and the media are swarming to defend another one of these foreign students being shoved to the exit. Mohsen Mahdawi, also of Columbia U, presumably anticipating his own ‘Shalom’ message, went off to an immigration office in Vermont in the hopes of getting ‘naturalized’, instead he was asked to leave America. Mahdawi told ‘60 Minutes’ that he could empathize with the Hamas atrocities of Oct 7. He also wrote a poem celebrating a terrorist that contained the words, “I will breathe home / And fill my shame / And clean my gun / And collect my packages, my bombs / And embrace my gun.” This won’t stop Democrats or the media from fighting for him because this is what they support.

Imports Show Near-Zero Growth Month Over Month as Tariff Reset Begins

By Kenneth Rapoza, Reporter/Columnist for Coalition for a Prosperous America

Imports did not vanish, but their growth rate was flat at zero percent in February compared to January after nearly two months of importers rushing in orders ahead of tariffs. February goods and services imports were $401 billion, a statistically insignificant change from January, the Bureau of Economic Analysis said. On the goods side, U.S. imports fell slightly from $328.9 billion worth of goods in February versus $329.4 billion in January. These figures include crude oil; but crude oil imports were about the same in February and January at $13.9 billion, respectively. [more...]
