On May 13, 1912, Congress passed the 17th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, which was ratified on April 8, 1913. The 17th Amendment instituted the direct election by voters of U.S. senators who until then were chosen by state legislatures pursuant to Article I, Section 3 of the Constitution. The Amendment was part of the early 20th century’s progressive movement reforms. It is time to repeal that amendment.The remarkable group of men who devised our Constitution and the Bill of Rights sought to enhance the powers of the federal government (which were ineffectual under the Articles of Confederation), but share that power among the legislative, executive, and judicial branches

Why has the federal government been trying so hard to keep surveillance footage of January 6th under wraps? We may have an answer to that question if a set of newly released videos are any indication.A judge ordered the videos be released against the wishes of the government prosecutors who claimed doing so would undermine national security. Of course, that makes no sense, and what’s on the videos runs counter to the chosen narrative.Behold, the event that has been compared to the Civil War by the President of the United States. (Tweet/Video) If you can’t watch the video, what you’ll see are open doors/windows and people casually walking in.

'They've got to be gotten rid of. They've gotten to be stopped. It cannot go on.'Waters, an 83-year-old Democratic representative for California's 43rd district, demanded that journalists: 'Write the story.

The US defaulting on its debt payments would be a 'catastrophic blow' to Covid-19 economic recovery and result in the loss of six million jobs, according Moody's latest analytics. The dire warning comes as the US Treasury Department has said it will run out of cash by October unless Congress raises its debt ceiling. Currently, the Republicans are refusing to increase the debt limit over concerns about Biden's vast spending plans. Mark Zendi, the chief economist at Moody's Analytics, said in his latest report that the Biden administration and Congress are 'playing a dangerous game with debt limit'. \He cited the pressing September 30 deadline - by which Congress must decide

Images coming out of the makeshift migrant camp under a bridge in a Texas border town reveal the horrendous conditions thousands of people are living in — from seeking shelter from the brutal sun inside tents fashioned from pieces of cloth to using jugs of water to bathe, all the while surrounded by ever-growing mounds of garbage. (Snip)Meanwhile, Gov. Greg Abbott has ordered state vehicles to create a makeshift wall along the border to block people fro, crossing the Rio Grande river, according to a report.

In Virginia, customers are only allowed to purchase one bottle of select liquors per day. Meanwhile, in North Carolina customers frequenting liquor stores are being greeted with 'out of stock' signs as well, according to WTVD,

Horrific photos have emerged of the squalid and fetid migrant camp in Del Rio, Texas that is currently home to thousands of Haitian migrants who've flocked to the US in the latest border crisis to hit Joe Biden. Desperate migrants, many of them families with young children, are being forced to sleep on the dirty ground or - if they're fortunate - cardboard boxes folded out flat. Many of the 8,600 who remain there have resorted to fashioning makeshift tents using discarded clothing and tree branches in order to provide at least some shelter from the elements.

It took too long to confirm what we already knew about this fiasco. It's a classic tale of government overreach, one we're seeing more often with Joe Biden issuing vaccine mandate edicts and rebuilding the IRS to spy on our financial activities. No, this is something of a throwback. It deals with the Russian collusion hoax and the unlawful targeting of Carter Page, a former 2016 Trump campaign official. Page had worked with the CIA, State Department, and the FBI in years past. There was plenty of exculpatory evidence to prove he wasn't a Russian asset. Obama's Department of Justice intentionally omitted these key pieces of information when applying for
