Go ahead and put this in the category, "we told you so," Democrats are the pro-crime party. Need more proof? Democratic Rep. Pramila Jayapal (WA-7) wants to make Americans pay for illegal aliens' legal defense, and stop Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) from being able to detain people who shouldn't even be in our country. During a press conference on Wednesday, Jayapal was joined by fellow Democrats to announce her bill H.R.2760 - The Dignity for Detained Immigrants Act - which has 123 Democrat co-sponsors in the House. Jayapal admitted that her bill not only "overhauls the detention system," but also "drastically scales back the use of detention" by

These liberals are some really big spenders, when it's other people's money! I worked hard for my money, and now that I'm retired, and still paying taxes, I'm tired of paying for any of these illegals and political grifters. I believe in charity, and I will always help a person in need, but I want to be the one who decides who gets my charity and who is really in need.

It only takes a minute to understand exactly whose side Jayapal is on. Washington is a sanctuary state for illegals. She may have run on "representing" actual constituents, but that's not what she's doing. She lives in a world where she and those like her have achieved enough power to compel law abiding citizens to fund legal services (and everything else) for people with no right to be on our soil in the first place. Washington, Oregon and California are all run by politicians who will never put Americans first. I grew up in Washington State, and remember what it was like before mass illegal immigration became popular with politicians. The result has been to diminish the quality of life for citizens, while corrupt politicians talk a lot about illegal aliens deserving "a better life." That better life, of course, comes at the expense of actual constituents. Betrayed citizens owe it to themselves to stand up to the radical left. It doesn't much like American citizens, and it doesn't try to hide it anymore.

If your favorite immigrants had any dignity they would have applied for citizenship from their side of the border. We already pay too much to finance the bad habits of our own criminals. We had a culture of crime here long before the illegals came to America. BTW, my version of justice does not involve money.

Democrats in Washington have spent the last two years celebrating the Inflation Reduction Act’s drug-pricing provisions. And, yes, lower prices and a $2,000 out-of-pocket cap make for good headlines, but beneath that victory lap sits a part of the health-care system almost no one thinks about: the pharmacies that serve nursing-home residents. Their stability determines whether millions of elderly Americans receive the medications they rely on every day. Those pharmacies are the weak point in the IRA rollout, and the pressure on them is building. Long-term-care (LTC) pharmacies aren’t retail storefronts. They don’t rely on walk-in traffic, and they don’t have the product mix that helps chains absorb financial shocks.

Americans with concerns about the influx of unvetted “migrants” have another example to worry about — and another potential future to be infuriated over. The venerable German tradition of Christmas markets — festive villages blossoming in city centers for the seasonal celebration — is taking a dark turn with the installation of massive security measures in the wake of deadly attacks by Muslims in recent years. And as U.K. conservative firebrand Tommy Robinson put it: “Christmas market in Germany is starting to look like a war zone.” It isn’t hard to see what he’s talking about. Robinson, who has spent years battling the establishment in the U.K. political arena, wrote

Nearly 44% of the 16,000 truck driving programs listed nationwide by the government may be forced to close if they lose their students after a review by the federal Transportation Department found they may not be complying with minimum requirements. The Transportation Department said Monday that it plans to revoke the certification of nearly 3,000 schools unless they can comply with training requirements in the next 30 days. The targeted schools must notify students that their certification is in jeopardy. Another 4,500 schools are being warned they may face similar action. Schools that lose certification will no longer be able to issue the certificates showing a driver completed training that's required

When the far left began to subsume cultural institutions, there was one “holy grail” (pun very much intended) target that they had their eyes set on: The church. While some churches resisted the calls to leftism, a fair number of them did not, leading to a rise in hyper-progressive churches that seem more interested in the rainbow of the LGBT movement than the crimson blood of Jesus Christ. Those same churches also became hyper-politicized, often siding with the left-wing establishment when it comes to all things President Donald Trump and his administration — including immigration enforcement.

Team Trump is finally going straight for the pressure point nobody in the political class ever wants to talk about… remittances. And if the plan works the way it’s designed, the gravy train that’s been draining American communities for decades is about to go belly up. Before we get into the details of what President Trump wants to do and why, we need to talk about what “remittances” actually are. Because most Americans don’t realize just how massive this system is or how much of our economy has been very quietly bleeding out thanks to it. Remittances are simple: illegals come here, take jobs, use our schools, hospitals, roads, and services,

The corporate media's obsession – or lack thereof, depending on who occupies the Oval Office – with presidential health is something to behold. They were entirely incurious about former President Joe Biden's obvious cognitive decline and delighted in gaslighting the American public about it, but are at hair-on-fire alert levels when President Donald Trump sports a bruise or retains a little water. It's all deflection, of course. The media goes extra hard in demanding health transparency from President Trump's staff and medical team in the hopes we'll all just forget about the fact that so-called journalists spent four years running cover for a feeble old man who had no business

As thousands gathered in Pioneer Courthouse Square for the city’s 41st annual tree-lighting on Friday night, leaders and speakers avoided mentioning “Christmas” at any point — including in the ceremony itself and the event’s ads. The festive occasion was kicked off with a woman from the Confederated Tribes of Warm Springs thanking everyone in the crowd for coming out on Native American Heritage Day.

He was immediately arrested on suspicion of violating Japan's Narcotics and Psychotropics Control Act.

Hoo boy. Sometimes, you might do something so embarrassing, so humiliating, that you want to hide in the closet. The prestigious science journal Nature may be thinking about doing that right about now, because on Wednesday, they officially retracted an influential 2024 climate report that predicted gloom and doom, death and misery, and impending economic catastrophe. As is the case with so much of the leftist climate narrative, their wild claims were quite simply unproven: In April 2024, the prestigious journal Nature released a study finding that climate change would cause far more economic damage by the end of the century than previous estimates had suggested.

Afghanistan’s Taliban made a 13-year-old carry out a public execution in front of thousands of onlookers, shooting a man who had killed more than a dozen members of the boy’s family. An estimated 80,000 people gathered at a sports stadium in the southeastern province of Khost to witness the horrific spectacle, condemned by the UN as “inhuman and cruel”. The convicted murderer, called Mangal, and two others had been found guilty of killing 13 members of the teenager’s family, including several children and women. The killer was sentenced to ‘Qisas’ - a retaliation punishment under Sharia law similar to the Biblical principle of ‘an eye for an eye’. The Supreme Court said

The shooting of two National Guard members in Washington last week has taken a jarring new turn, and the emerging theory about the gunman’s motive points to a far deeper national security threat. Rahmanullah Lakanwal, the 29-year-old Afghan national accused of killing Army Spc. Sarah Beckstrom and critically wounding Air Force Staff Sgt. Andrew Wolfe, had served alongside U.S. forces in Afghanistan before Joe Biden’s botched withdrawal. If you’ve been wondering why someone who once helped American troops would suddenly target National Guardsmen, you’re not the only one asking that question. Federal investigators now believe the Taliban may have blackmailed Lakanwal into carrying out the attack.
