By Bonchie Joe Biden has committed his umpteenth impeachable offense. According to reports, the Biden administration has halted multiple arms shipments to Israel. That decision comes amid a domestic political crisis for the president in which he is desperately seeking to appease Hamas-supporting Democrats who have taken to the streets. The shipments are Boeing-made precision bombs and follow a ruse by Hamas to claim they had accepted a "ceasefire" just as Israel began its assault on Rafah.  BREAKING: The Biden administration is holding up shipments of two types of Boeing-made precision bombs to send a political message to Israel, according to a U.S. official and six other people with knowledge of the deliberations.

Too much is at stake to put our heads in the sand and go about our lives with blinders on hoping the insanity will fade away. By Tulsi Gabbard We have no time to waste. We live in troubled times. Our nation is bitterly divided. Our future as a republic, as a union, appears bleak. The news – the noise, the insanity, the darkness – is something many of us want to shut out. There are times when all I want to do is grab my surfboard and paddle out into the ocean, or go for a hike in the mountains, and appreciate the peace and majesty of Mother Nature. But there is too much at stake, in this moment, to put our heads in the sand and go about our lives with blinders on hoping the insanity will fade away. The insanity and threats to our constitutional democracy will not fade away and will only increase unless we stand up and remind those trying to destroy this country that ours is a government of, by, and for the people. I joined the Democr

By Ward Clark Colorado was once a great place to raise a family. I should know; I raised mine there. But while the rot started as long ago as the late '80s, it accelerated after the turn of the millennium and has now kicked into high gear. The Denver-Boulder Axis runs the state now, and the Centennial State has become East California. In the latest example of how far Colorado has fallen, the state legislature has passed, and Governor Polis has signed, a law that compels speech on the part of schoolteachers by requiring them to use whatever pronouns a student chooses, regardless of any ethical or religious objections the teacher may have. The  new law states in part : 2-1-143. Harassment or discrimination - policy required - training and notification - definitions. (1) As used in this section, unless the context otherwise requires: (d) (IV) HARASSMENT OR DISCRIMINATION INCLUDES THE KNOWING OR INTENTIONAL USE OF A NAME OTHER

By Cam Edwards A federal judge in New York has dismissed a challenge to the state's requirement that every ammunition sale go through a background check, citing a colonial Virginia statute barring Catholics from owning or possessing arms that he says demonstrates a "national tradition" of keeping guns from dangerous people. In his ruling, Obama-appointed U.S. District Judge Frank P. Geraci, Jr agreed that ammunition should be considered "arms" that are protected by the language of the Second Amendment, but still found the law in question to be constitutional because it's meant to keep "dangerous" people from acquiring guns and ammunition.  The government offers several historical examples of laws that were enacted to disarm dangerous individuals, but the Court will discuss only one of the many analogues offered. In colonial Virginia, the legislature dictated that no Catholics “

By Fred Lucas As the veepstakes speculation grows,  Donald Trump —Republicans’ presumptive nominee for president for the third straight time—has had plenty to say about the group of contenders for the second spot on the ticket. Axios  reported  over the weekend on an audio recording obtained from a gathering at Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate in which the former president comments on numerous contenders for his choice to be vice president.  Those possible Trump choices include three fellow Floridians who are in Congress: Sen. Marco Rubio and Reps. Byron Donalds and Michael Waltz. Trump also talked about two former  2024 primary opponents , Sen. Tim Scott of South Carolina and North Dakota Gov. Doug Burgum.  The names of three more senators also were in the mix: Sens. Marsha Blackburn of Tennessee,  Mike Lee of Utah, and JD Vance of Ohio. And Trump commented on the often-mentioned chairwoman of the House Republican Conference, Elise Stefanik of New Yor

By ETH A U.S. soldier was detained in Russia last week, a U.S. Army spokesperson said in a statement. According to four U.S. officials, he had been stationed in South Korea and traveled to Russia on his own and not on official business. The soldier is accused of stealing from a woman, the  officials said. The soldier was detained on May. 2, U.S. Army spokesperson Cynthia O. Smith, said in a statement. In a statement, Smith said that the soldier was apprehended in Vladivostok, Russia “on charges of criminal misconduct.” “The Russian Federation notified the U.S. Department of State of the criminal detention following the Vienna Convention on Consular Relations,” Smith said. “The Army notified his family and the U.S. Department of State is providing appropriate consular support to the Soldier in Russia. Given the sensitivity of this matter, we cannot provide additional details at this time..” Chairman of the House Foreign Affairs Comm

By REAGAN REESE The White House is reportedly scrambling to make President Joe Biden’s regulatory agenda irreversible in the event that former President Donald Trump wins the 2024 election, according to the Wall Street Journal. If Trump retakes the White House in the 2024 election, he is planning to sign several resolutions under the 1996 Congressional Review Act to reverse scores of Biden-era regulations, people close to the former president  told the WSJ . While Trump plots his 2025 agenda, senior Biden officials are reportedly working to ensure that his predecessor is unable to make such adjustments in office. “They’re all looking back to what happened in 2017 and thinking, ‘That could repeat itself in 2025,’” Steven Balla, the co-director of George Washington University’s Regulatory Studies Center, which provides analysis on the Congressional Review Act, told the outlet. “When re-elected, President Trump will immediately cut Joe Biden’s burdens

By Bob Hoge In yet another power grab by the Biden Administration, the Defense Department in March asked Congress to override an existing law that requires governors to approve changes to National Guard units. The proposal would allow the Defense Department to have unilateral power to transfer units to the Space Force because perhaps they’re preparing for an alien invasion or something. Texas Governor Greg Abbott (R), long a thorn in the side of Biden on the illegal immigration issue because the president refuses to protect our borders while the Republican governor takes the border invasion seriously, is fighting back and pointed out in a letter to the White House that the move would shatter long-time precedent.  “Although the Texas Air National Guard does not have these types of missions, I strongly oppose any attempt to sideline governors when it comes to their respective National Guards,” Abbott wrote in his letter, dated May 3.

By Bonchie In one of the most disgusting displays of pro-Hamas sentiment yet, a group of terrorist supporters showed up at Auschwitz in Poland to shout genocidal slogans at Holocaust survivors. Their goal was to disrupt the "March of the Living," a yearly event in which Jewish survivors of atrocities honor those who perished.  Videos from the infamous concentration camp emerged on Monday showing people in terrorist garb shouting genocidal slogans with the obvious goal of intimidating the Jewish marchers. The "protesters" also floated "Palestinian" flags under bundles of balloons toward the Jewish marchers, possibly a reference to the balloon-propelled explosives used by Hamas. Police sirens sound outside Auschwitz - Holocaust survivors and Oct 7 victims are walking for March of Living and Gaza protesters are chanting at them. #Auschwitz #marchoftheliving pic.twitter.com/kdnkqhkFwa — Natali
