"Our analysis indicates that almost all of the attacks (of artillery, missiles and aircraft attacks,) have been in front of Russian Ground Troops to support ground operations.

There's been ample evidence to say that the FBI spied on candidate Donald Trump's campaign — but on Friday we learned about another type of spying from Special Counsel John Durham's investigation and Court Filing.

While Biden won 63% of Hispanic voters in 2020, a recent Wall Street Journal Poll shows that Hispanic voters would split their vote in a 2024 rematch if the vote were taken today – 44% for Biden and 43% for Trump. And believe it or not, it gets worse from there.

Two Hispanic Texas women – a 59 year old mother and her 21 year old daughter who were sitting in their car at a Stop Sign last Saturday morning, going about their daily lives – were killed at 11:30am by an Illegal Immigrant Smuggler, T-Boned while Joe Biden’s Immigration & Border Policies are failing.

Biden's decline has occurred mainly in the states he won in 2020. A 60% majority of Americans say they feel “worn out” by how the COVID-19 pandemic has impacted their daily lives, and 45% feel “angry” about it.

Heading into the 2022 Mid-Term Election Year, voters are lacking confidence in President Biden's leadership abilities, are concerned about Inflation, the economy and the Democrat Party's "agenda," and are pessimistically running short of patience on all of the above according to new Wall Street Journal Poll.
