Obama Freed The Taliban Leader Who Engineered Kabul Takeover

Former President Barack Obama didn’t listen to Pentagon officials when they told him Taliban mullah Khairullah Khairkhwa was too dangerous to release. Instead, he freed the group that came to be known as the ‘Gitmo five’ — Khairkhwa alongside four of his buddies — from the Guantanamo Bay prison in 2014 in exchange for a U.S. soldier who deserted his post. Obama all but guaranteed that Khairkhwa and the four other men would be sent to Qatar, where their movements would be restricted and where they could do no harm. As it turns out, the Taliban isn’t as trustworthy as the former president thought. Now, Khairkhwa has resurfaced as one of the masterminds behind ...

Border Patrol agents in a California mountain range were fired upon from Mexico while taking a group of migrants found illegally entering the country into custody last week – another instance of violence against U.S. immigration officers at the border, yet no arrests have been made. At approximately 9 p.m. on Aug. 9, Border Patrol agents "were the target of multiple shots" near Otay Mountain, which contains the highest summit of the San Ysidro Mountains in San Diego County, according to a statement released Saturday by U.S. Customs and Border Protection. The barrage of bullets was unleashed on agents arresting a group of undocumented immigrants, about two miles east of the ...
Texas Supreme Court blocks mask mandates in Dallas, Bexar counties

The Texas Supreme Court has temporarily restricted Dallas County Judge Clay Jenkins’ ability to enforce a mask mandate in schools and businesses, allowing Gov. Greg Abbott’s executive order banning local leaders from implementing such mandates to stand. The entirely Republican Texas Supreme Court granted a temporary stay Sunday, at the request of Republican Gov. Greg Abbott and Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton. But hearings on the matter will continue in lower courts as scheduled, though the Supreme Court could still issue a ruling. Bexar County, where the county seat is San Antonio, has a hearing Monday, and Dallas County has a hearing Aug. 24. Late Sunday, Dallas ISD ...

“What’s coming next is that we are going to have to continue to get people vaccinated so that right now, even in states in which you have a good relative proportion of people vaccinated, you have to get the overwhelming proportion of people vaccinated. But you also have to do mitigation. And that gets to the controversial issue of mask-wearing and the mandating of things mandating of vaccines, for example, for teachers and people in the personnel in the school, but also in situations as uncomfortable as we know and controversial as we know it is with regard to masks wearing, particularly in the situation in schools, we’ve just got to realize that we’re dealing with a ...

Gov. Groper is almost gone and Mayor Putz is moving toward the exit. Who says there’s no good news? Andrew Cuomo’s resignation and the term-limited end of Mayor de Blasio give New York state and city much-needed chances for fresh starts. While the slate isn’t wiped clean, the unusual near- simultaneous changes at the top create an opening to clean up the mess the two men helped create and reverse the sharp decline of recent years. Put it this way: Kathy Hochul in Albany and, presumably, Eric Adams in City Hall can’t screw up more than Cuomo and de Blasio. Over the last eight years, their performance confirmed them as the worst team of governor and mayor in modern ...

(We should love everyone regardless of skin color, God does). A friend of mine told me a true apocryphal story. He is an old- fashioned “liberal” and a strong advocate of public education. The Covid-19 lockdowns left him additional time to inconspicuously sit in on his sixth-grade son’s online classes. One afternoon, he observed an assignment in an English class in which all the white students were required to place their arms beside a brown paper bag. The teacher, a white woman, asked if they noticed a difference in color between their skin and the brown paper bag. The white students verbally assented. The teacher then asked if the color of the bag looked close to the ...

Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee Chairman Rep. Sean Patrick Maloney chose to raise awareness recently about the most obvious thing in Washington: The Democrats’ control of the U.S. House of Representatives is in serious jeopardy. Politico’s story “House Dem campaign chief warns the majority at risk without message reboot” amplified Mr. Maloney’s cry for help but made it clear that Democrats are in serious denial about the dire situation they’ve created for themselves. Not only is history working against them - a new President’s party almost always loses seats in Congress in their first midterm election - but Democrats have the smallest majority ...
Chris Cuomo Should Resign

Color me shocked that Gov. Andrew Cuomo knuckled under to demands he resign after a devastating report detailing his sexual harassment of 11 women. But it was not quite as shocking as reading a Washington Post report that CNN's top star Chris Cuomo was still moonlighting (or daylighting) as one of his top political advisers. Chris Cuomo should follow his big brother's example and resign. This CNN situation should be seen as untenable. Chris made a promise not to do this again. Back in May, he said, point blank, "It will not happen again. ... It was a mistake because I put my colleagues here, who I believe are the best in the business, in a bad spot." He claimed, "I ...
Gov. Andrew Cuomo resigns amid sexual harassment scandal: What’s next for CNN and Chris Cuomo?

New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo announced on Tuesday that he would step down amid an ongoing sexual harassment scandal, raising further questions about what CNN will do with his beleaguered little brother, star anchor Chris Cuomo. CNN’s Cuomo was away from the network this week and wasn’t around for his big brother’s political downfall. But he’s caught up in the scandal himself, as the New York state attorney general concluded that CNN’s primetime host tried to help the outgoing governor fight sexual harassment allegations along the way. A former CNN employee who worked closely with Chris Cuomo at times thinks the "Cuomo Prime Time" host will be allowed to ...

President Joe Biden signed legislation giving the men and women of the Capitol Police and the Washington, D.C., Metropolitan Police Department the Congressional Medal of Honor last week. But no mention was ever made of the thousands of other law enforcement officers who put their lives on the line protecting cities throughout the violent riots of 2020. Kamala Harris wearing a suit and tie talking on a cell phone© Provided by Washington Examiner “Police officers are not what you do,” Biden said of the officers who defended the Capitol on Jan. 6. “It is who you are. … It’s not some hyperbole to suggest ‘duty, honor, service.’ That’s who you are. ...
Andrew Cuomo has always been corrupt

Gov. Andrew Cuomo of New York has come under fire following an investigation into his conduct by New York Attorney General Letitia James, which found 11 counts of sexual harassment. Following the release of this report, prominent democratic politicians from the speaker of the New York State Assembly all the way up to President Joe Biden have called for his resignation. Yet while people across the country are surprised, this is not the first time the governor has shown us who he really is. The New York government has long been corrupt. And while Cuomo has vowed to rid Albany of the moral and political rot that has plagued New York for so long, he has been contributing to it. We know that ...

When midterm elections loom just around the corner, most presidents push populist policies to lure Independent votes as a means of retaining their party’s majority in Congress. President Biden, however, seems to be doing everything to push middle-ground voters away. It’s almost hard to believe that Biden wants his party to retain control of Congress at all, given his performance so far. While the administration celebrates saving families 16 cents on Independence Day barbecues, American families face the harsh realities of misguided government priorities. Countless small businesses have shuttered their doors, millions of American workers have been paid to stay home instead of ...
Biden's blithely unconstitutional government

When Vice President Al Gore was caught soliciting campaign donations from the White House, he excused himself by repeating one of the slipperiest phrases in the dictionary of political dodges. There was, he intoned seven times in an excruciating 1997 press conference, “no controlling legal authority” to confirm that his money grubbing was illegal. His logic, if you can call it that, was that since no court decision could be cited — no one had ever had the gall to dispute the matter before a judge — it was impossible to be sure he’d done wrong. The problem for President Joe Biden and his lawless administration today is that their ban on landlords kicking out tenants ...
Wisconsin Parents Are Fed Up With Schools’ Attempts To Brainwash Their Kids

Wisconsin parents are fed up with their school districts’ attempts to indoctrinate their children, and they aren’t going to stay quiet any longer. For months, parents in the largest GOP suburban stronghold in the state, located outside Milwaukee, have tried to push back on the Elmbrook School District’s creeping shift to the left. Now, they are asking other residents to sign a petition demanding Elmbrook prioritize “education over activism.” “It’s been a lot of very involved parents looking at what their kids are studying probably because they’ve been home and doing remote learning, but also realizing that things are very aggressively moving in a ...
Andrew Cuomo's COVID policy killed thousands — that's what should have ended his career

If you kill a few thousand senior citizens through negligent policymaking and subsequently try to cover it up, that’s considered politically survivable in the current climate. Alleged inappropriate behavior around staffers, however, is a death sentence. New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo has been accused of all these things. While his sexual misconduct and egregious mishandling of COVID-19 are both heinous, they are not equally so. It should not be controversial to assert killing the elderly through incompetence is far more depraved than anything the New York Attorney General has accused the governor of doing to his subordinates. The public response from the media is currently flipping the ...

Gavin Newsom wants you to know his kids are not political weapons. Your kids, however, are another story. California’s governor, a man constitutionally incapable of speaking in anything other than clichés, appeared Wednesday evening on CBS News to complain his political opponents noticed (once again) he’s a do-as-I-say-not-as-I-do kind of guy when it comes to the state’s COVID-19 rules. Newsom, you might remember, made national news in November when he was photographed at Thomas Keller’s famous (and famously expensive) French Laundry restaurant in Napa, hobnobbing indoors with medical industry lobbyists, neither wearing a mask nor social distancing—all of ...
NYT Lies About Trump Again With Claim He Pushed DOJ To Declare Election ‘Corrupt’

On Friday, The New York Times claimed it had obtained the handwritten notes from a post-election meeting between then- President Donald Trump and acting Attorney General Jeffrey Rosen and Deputy Attorney General Richard Donoghue. Those notes, according to the Times, reveal that when Donoghue “warned that the department had no power to change the outcome of the election,” Trump “replied that he did not expect that.” “‘Just say that the election was corrupt + leave he rest to me’ and to congressional allies,” the Times reported Donoghue’s handwritten notes as stating. However, a review of the notes from that December 27, 2020 meeting, provided by ...
Colin Reed: Biden and 2022 – what the six-month mark tells us about the future for Dems, GOP

(Many special elections were won by GOP, I say that's a good sign for GOP). The six-month marker of the Biden administration is a natural point to reflect, and to take stock of next year’s midterm elections. The mainstream media has been quick to declare Democrats with the upper hand. "Democrats See Edge in Early Senate Map as Trump Casts Big Shadow" pronounced a recent New York Times headline, while CNN declared "A new election forecast gives Democrats hope for 2022." On the House side, the combination of history, redistricting, political gravity and a razor-thin Democrat majority put Republicans in the driver’s seat. Even Democrats are conceding this ...
The dark side of transgenderism: Moral monsters are mutilating children without parental involvement

The Left’s long-standing effort to substitute government power for parental authority is picking up ominous strength, as signified by the trend toward state-ordered mutilation of minor children through sex-change surgeries, even over parental objections. Now the Journal of Medical Ethics is giving credence to this monstrosity by publishing a piece arguing parents should “lose veto power" over most transition-related pediatric care. As John Stonestreet of the faith-based Colson Center summarizes it, the journal article posits that parents “shouldn’t even be allowed into the conversation.” This isn’t just some theory or story about people using annoying ...

FOR THE FBI, A SHAMEFUL ANNIVERSARY. Five years ago, on July 31, 2016, the Federal Bureau of Investigation opened Crossfire Hurricane, its investigation of the presidential campaign of former President Donald Trump. Some parts of the bureau had been looking into allegations of collusion between the campaign and Russia even before the investigation began. But on July 31, the FBI started the process that led to a million leaks, enormous damage to candidate Trump, and then President-elect Trump, and then President Trump, the abuse of the government's secret surveillance court to wiretap a low-level Trump adviser, efforts to impeach the president, more leaks, media hysteria, and, finally, ...
Sen. Marco Rubio: We must stop Silicon Valley-Democrat collusion before conservatives are silenced for good

The love affair between Big Tech and the Democratic Party is not a secret. Through campaign contributions, censorship, and woke nonsense, it’s perfectly clear that Silicon Valley giants are working together with the Left to destroy conservative values in America. But White House press secretary Jen Psaki’s admission last week that the Biden administration keeps regular contact with social media companies – and is "flagging problematic posts" related to COVID-19 and vaccines – is a disturbing new step in this dystopian collaboration. The way Psaki describes it, President Biden is working directly with Big Tech to censor Americans and silence free speech on the ...
