For some reason, Members of Congress, President Biden, and the IRS are increasingly concerned that you're committing tax fraud – so they want your banks to throw you against the wall. Commonly called Terry stops or "stop-and-frisk," became routine in New York City in the 1990s. Now Democrats intend to deploy them to your bank account. We are all suspects now.

Cancel culture has reared its ugly head once again, and this time in a new and unprecedented way. The latest example?

"The COVID-19 vaccine is safe, effective, and our best defense against the virus, but should remain voluntary and never forced," said Texas Gov. Greg Abbott earlier today, issuing an Executive Order stating "that no entity in Texas can compel receipt of a COVID-19 vaccination by any individual..."

I don’t want anyone telling me how to live my life. So honestly, if the country split up I wouldn’t miss anything that "The Left" brings to the table.

The beauty of the “Let’s Go, Brandon” meme sweeping the nation is not only how it captures the utter contempt that America has for our president – who's currently polling about as well as Michael Moore would among Golden Corral managers – but how it captures what is either unbelievable cluelessness among the media, or unbelievable mendacity.

"This crisis has taken a serious toll on Texas' border communities, its first responders & the local non-profit sector. Local Officials and Texas citizens are fatigued and running out of resources to respond to the ongoing border crisis," said Gov.
