Democrats sabotage Cubans

July 24, 2021

President Joe Biden is full of compassion for Hispanics fleeing their home countries. There’s one exception: liberty-loving Cubans. Biden’s abandoning practically all controls on the southern border. Despite saying, “Do not come,” the White House is adopting policies that send a clear message: “Cross illegally and you can stay.” At the same time, Biden’s slamming the door on Cubans setting sail for Florida to escape a communist dictatorship. These anti-communists are not the kind of Hispanics that Democrats like. Customs and Border Patrol agents on the southern border ...

Biden makes wild accusations

July 23, 2021

Liberals boasted that the election of Joe Biden meant a return to sober, restrained presidential rhetoric and an end to unhinged mean tweets. Biden wouldn’t be a divider; he’d be a uniter to get things done. That’s nothing like current reality. But when Biden uncorks crazy hot talk, the media are supportive repeaters. On July 16, NBC reporter Peter Alexander tossed a softball: “On COVID misinformation, what’s your message to platforms like Facebook?” Biden gave a wild-eyed answer: “They’re killing people.” He said it twice. NBC, as well as CBS and PBS, just passed ...

To succeed, break the rules

July 21, 2021

America has so many regulations that today, often the only way to do something new, to create something great, to prosper is to ignore rules. Minutes before SpaceX launched a rocket, the government told the company that the launch would violate its license. SpaceX launched anyway. CEO Elon Musk says that the Federal Aviation Administration has “a broken regulatory structure” and that “there is simply no way that humanity can become a spacefaring civilization without major regulatory reform.” But reform isn’t likely. While businesses must constantly adjust to ...

Are guns really the problem?

July 20, 2021

The White House is launching a new assault to bring down the crime rate. As you’ve likely heard, crime, especially homicide, has exploded in many major hotspot cities over the last year or so. President Joe Biden says he knows what to do, he’s been at this for years and he’s got a plan ready to launch that includes several definitive steps. “The first of those that work is stemming the flow of firearms used to commit violent crimes,” Biden told a group of reporters as he was about to go into a closed-door meeting with visiting police chiefs and city officials. “It ...

Biden ignoring COVID-19 dangers at border, in hospitals

July 17, 2021

COVID-19 cases in the US leapt 47.5% last week from the previous week. Shots in arms, not shutdowns, are the answer. Among the big risks to Americans right now are unvaccinated healthcare workers and unvaccinated, undocumented migrants fanning out across the U.S. But President Joe Biden is putting politics ahead of tackling these two politically toxic problems. Team Biden is banning foreign travelers from many countries, including the UK, even if they’re fully vaccinated. But he’s OK with letting hundreds of thousands of unvaccinated foreigners wade across the Rio Grande to enter ...

Does the Constitution mean what it says?

July 16, 2021

“No person ... shall be deprived of life, liberty, or property without due process of law.” — Fifth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution Abdulsalam al-Hela is a 53-year-old Yemeni cleric who has been incarcerated by the United States at the Guantanamo Bay Naval Station in Cuba since 2004. He has not been charged with any crime. His case has a long and complex legal history, but it is instructive to all who believe that the Constitution means what it says. Hela is represented by competent counsel who have filed numerous petitions in his behalf asking the courts to compel the ...
