Illegal Crossers Plant Venezuelan Flag on Texas Island By M Dowling -September 25, 20232 Enormous numbers of unvetted, anonymous people are entering the United States illegally. The UN is now getting involved in allegedly screening them. It’s an invasion. One group of Venezuelans planted a Venezuelan flag on a Texas island. They believed they invaded and conquered. As the crisis continues, the Mexican and American governments and the United Nations are considering setting up a temporary pre-screening program for about 40,000 “asylum seekers” from Haiti, Venezuela, Nicaragua, and Cuba in southern Mexico, where there are no mobile US consulates to do this.

On internet platforms that still allow free speech, there’s an unusual word being used to describe our current form of government: kakistocracy. A kakistocracy is defined as a government run by the worst people. Whether those people in positions of power are the worst due to their malpractice, corruption or infirmity varies on a case-by-case basis. Some manage to manifest all three at once.

Many people have probably heard about the viral epidemic that is sweeping America, bringing mask-wearing back into fashion once again. No, it’s not Covid-19, at least not yet, but rather organized retail theft that is wreaking havoc on the nation’s heartland. Back in the Soviet days, before mega malls and hyper-stores became prominent features across Russia’s 11 time zones, communist shoppers were forced to choose merchandise that was locked away behind display cases. A clerk would write down the price of each desired item and the shopper would take the piece of paper to the cashier, pay for the merchandise and then return to the salesperson with proof of purchase. Only then ...

When are we going to wake up and admit that our system is failing? If close to half of our young adults find themselves needing to live with their parents, we have a major crisis on our hands. Yes, there are some young people that are simply lazy and don’t want to work hard enough. I definitely understand that. But most young adults in America today don’t actually want to live with their parents. Given the opportunity, they would love to have their own homes. Unfortunately, home prices have risen to absolutely absurd levels and housing in America is now more unaffordable than it has ever been before. I feel so badly for the millions upon millions of young people that are ...

Republican Sen. Tommy Tuberville of Alabama took a victory lap Wednesday, saying that his hold on military promotions was still in place after Democratic Sen. Charles Schumer of New York filed cloture motions on multiple nominations for high-ranking posts.

Rep. Chip Roy, R-Texas, vented frustration at his Republican colleagues who are opposing a stopgap proposal to avert a government shutdown cobbled together by the conservative House Freedom Caucus and the more pragmatic Main Street Caucus. "If a Republican opposes a 30-day, 8% cut to the non-defense, non-veteran federal government with the best border security bill we've ever had attached to it, I honestly don't know what to say to my fellow Republicans other than you're gonna eat a s--- sandwich, and you probably deserve to eat it," Roy told Fox News Digital on Wednesday.
