McCAUGHEY: Democrats Are Becoming, Have Become the Censorship Party

A July 20th Pew Research Poll found that 70% of Democrats think the government should restrict what appears on Social Media. But just ask the Iranians, Russians or Chinese – Democracy cannot survive if one of the nation's two major political parties wants to put blinders on the public, limiting their access to information and canceling political opponents. Democrats need a refresher course on the Constitution & American history.

RRC Helps Mitigate Boating Hazards at National Preserve

The project involved removing surface casings on four wells that had been plugged in the Neches River by operators in the 1970’s and early 80’s.

Much of the Hot Air Is Coming From Washington

We had multiple ice ages and heat waves long before we had coal mines, gas-guzzling automobiles and air conditioning. Or human-made CO2 emissions. Or human-made anything. The biggest source of greenhouse gas emissions has been Mother Nature. Forest fires and volcano eruptions have been some of the leading causes of greenhouse gases being released into the atmosphere. . . Instead of outlawing cars, how about better forest management?

Students shouldn't have to pay the price for Joe Biden's failed border policies.

McCAUL: Experts say Mayorkas is Complicit in Increased Criminal Border Activity

Secretary of State Mayorkas' dereliction of duty is clear – implementing reckless policies & failing to enforce the laws passed by Congress. And because of his reckless open border policies, cartels are running a criminal enterprise here in the United States.

SCHLICHTER: Brazen Criminality – The Inevitable Impeachment of Alleged President Biden

What you want doesn't matter. It's clear PINO (President-in-name-only) Joe Biden is going to get impeached. What history teaches matters, and what history teaches is that this body of evidence can't go unchallenged. At the end of the day he won't be removed from office, but there's now too much evidence to avoid it – and the GOP'll be forced into it by the sheer magnitude and brazenness of the criminality they've exposed.

HANSON: The Biden Family... As Cocaine's Found in The West Wing of the White House

Suspicions are the Force Multipliers of the mounting evidence of the Biden Family's corruption. They feed narratives of heartlessness, of the absolute meanness in disowning a granddaughter born out of wedlock to Hunter. They add to the growing list of worry about presidential senility – and result in a caricature of a 1st family utterly out of touch, dysfunctional and increasingly detrimental to the nation at large.
