In 1996, as an attorney at the Department of Justice, I prosecuted the Johnny Chung case, which uncovered that China was funneling money into the campaign coffers of the DNC. They wanted to influence our presidential election in favor of Bill Clinton because they believed his administration would give them greater access to sensitive U.S. technology. China wanted our technology back then, and they still want it today.

For evangelicals who take both Scripture and history seriously, Martin Luther King Jr. deserves neither hagiography nor dismissal. He deserves understanding. That requires resisting the modern temptation to flatten him into a one-dimensional symbol—either a sainted mascot for every contemporary political cause or a villain dismissed because he does not fit neatly into today’s ideological boxes. The real King was far more interesting, far more challenging, and far more explicitly Christian than either camp prefers to admit.
“Texas is where the integrated circuit began, and where the future of the Semiconductor Industry is being built.

When Sect. of State Marco Rubio moved to shut down the USAID (Agency for International Development ) in January 2025, he noted it had largely become a global charity for non-profit grifters. Now, even the recipients of the foreign aid racket admit it inhibits true Economic Development. For instance, Zambia's President Hakainde Hichilema has stepped forward to publicly agree with Rubio's new policy, and says cuts to U.S. foreign aid were "long overdue."

Minnesota? Somalis? Nine billion dollars in alleged welfare theft or fraud? Minnesota's state & city lawsuits to block Federal Law Enforcement efforts there is in open defiance of the Constitution - and stands out as Absurd Legal Theory. It's not merely wrongheaded, it's reckless. Gov. Walz & Mayor Frey are standing in the moral tradition of 1960s Segregationist Governors George Wallace (D-AL) and Ross Barnett (D-MS) by urging and inciting resistance to Lawful Federal Authority.

“President Trump and Trump administration officials are systematically targeting the Muslim Brotherhood and its branches, including through President Trump’s Executive Order last year and by implementing the strategy for designations laid out in that order. These measures were advanced despite overwhelming resistance, lobbying, and obstruction from supporters of the Muslim Brotherhood abroad and from career bureaucrats across the U.S. government. "
To paraphrase Paul Newman in the movie “Cool Hand Luke”: “Sometimes doing nothing is a pretty cool hand.” Those are words the Trump White House should embrace. As we’ve correctly predicted many times on these pages: the economy is flying high right now. Three straight quarters of an average of near 4% growth. Inflation tumbling to 2.7%. Record high stock markets. Low and still falling gas prices. Real incomes exceeding inflation. Crime down. The budget deficit falling.
Remember the outrage from The Radical Left when Elon Musk & DOGE Inc. uncovered all the fraud and theft in the USAID Program? Billions of tax dollars were going to leftist causes after being laundered through so-called "non-profits." These “charities” were really just partisan slush funds for Liberals to use our tax dollars to advance a progressive agenda around the world. Well, much to everyone's surprise, now we find Democrats have Perfected the same scam in the domestic “charity” world too.
"As we approach the one-year anniversary of my daughter Katie’s Jan. 19th, 2025 death, Sanctuary City & Sanctuary State policies continue to cause death. My family and 1,000s of other Angel Families have become collateral damage to a reckless experiment of self-serving politicians. That's not compassion, it's exploitation," says Angel Father Joe Abraham. "We all share my daughter Katie’s legacy — and her death must still mean something."
U.S. Senators Ted Cruz & John Cornyn, along with a influential group of fellow Senators have introduced the "Stop Illegal Aliens Drunk Driving Act" to strengthen current immigration laws and ensure that illegal aliens who drive drunk and kill or seriously injure someone can be arrested, detained, and removed from the U.S. as aggravated felons. Additionally, the bill would permanently bar those found guilty from obtaining an immigration status, such as asylum, or from holding a Green Card.
In Minnesota, an individual attempted to run over an ICE Officer with her vehicle, leaving him no choice but to defend himself. This is what happens when radical Democrats — from governors in California and Minnesota to Senators like Chuck Schumer (D-NY) and Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) — spend years demonizing Law Enforcement and stoke hatred in their followers toward those who uphold the law. Democrats have gone on record dozens of times attacking ICE — and now are even trying to undermine our nation's respect for Law & Order.
