Here’s a Behind-the-Scenes Look at JD Vance’s Border Trip |
The Biden administration’s insistence that they were powerless in the fight to secure the Southern border looks more foolish by the day. All America really needed was a president who would bother to try.
A capable vice president helps too, and after four years of word salads and White House drag queen happy hours, America finally has one in JD Vance. Vance ventured to Eagle Pass, Texas, this week to visit the main site of our country’s Biden-era invasion and assure voters that Donald Trump intends to “build the entire border wall” by the end of his term.
A pool of reporters joined the VP’s trip, and one from the Daily Caller quickly published a full, behind-the-scenes account of everything that happened on the eye-opening journey. Read it here.

Cutting Onions? Highly Emotional Trudeau Tears Up During Press Conference |
Deeply unpopular Canadian Governor Justin Trudeau unleashed the waterworks on Thursday, welling up while boasting that he’s spent his time in the halls of power always putting “Canadians first.”
“On a personal level, I made sure that every single day in this office, I put Canadians first, and I have people’s backs, and that’s why I’m here to tell you all that we got you,” the quivering Prime Minister said during a press conference. “Even in the last days of this government, we will not let Canadians down.”
Hold on a second. Canada First? Is that not the same kind of rhetoric Trudeau-style liberals have spent years calling nationalistic racist Nazi talk? America First makes Donald Trump the modern Hitler, but Canada First gets the seal of approval? We guess the Left gives blackface wearers a free pass.

NATO Members May Get What They Pay for |
Does anyone seriously believe U.S. troops should have to die defending North Macedonia? Or Slovakia? What about Bulgaria?
Thanks to NATO, our service members would be obligated to take up arms to protect those and plenty of other random countries if they fell under attack. This would even be the case if said nation failed to uphold its end of the U.S.-dependent alliance by spending its agreed-upon GDP percentage on defense. That could be changing.
The Trump administration is reportedly considering ditching Washington’s security guarantees for financially delinquent NATO countries that leech off the alliance without providing anything substantial in return. If they refuse to have America’s back by paying their fair share, the U.S. won’t have theirs when things go awry. Sounds like common sense to us. Read more.

TRUMP EFFECT: E.U. to Boost Defense Spending |
Would you look at that?
Deep down, European countries know they’re cripplingly dependent on the United States. Weak American leaders have spent decades letting them get away with it, but the chickens are finally coming home to roost.
E.U. representatives holding emergency talks in Brussels on Thursday agreed to begin massive increases in defense spending, bending the knee to Donald Trump’s demand that the U.S. no longer serve as the rest of the world’s charity piggy bank. The leaders “are determined to invest more, to invest better and to invest faster together.” It’s about time. Read more.

TOTAL INCOHESION: Much of England Can’t Speak English |
New data from the UK Statistics Authority shows that almost one million people in England speak little to no English. According to the report, just over a third of migrants above 16 claimed to speak the language well, and over 135,000 are completely illiterate.
This is the result of Western Europe’s out-of-control open border policies. They allowed the UK’s net migration to hit 872,000 in 2022 and 866,000 the following year, destabilizing the region and destroying social and cultural cohesion.
“Opening the floodgates to millions of new people has made integration into the British way of life almost impossible, and these statistics are testament to that,” MP Richard Tice said in response to the findings.
Good thing “diversity is our strength,” right? Read more.

Remember the Illegal Immigrant Who Lit a Woman on Fire? New York Refuses to Deport Him. |
Americans were horrified when Guatemalan national Sebastian Zapeta-Calil allegedly set a woman on fire on the New York subway in December. Now, the sanctuary city is refusing to give him to federal authorities for deportation.
Tom Homan doesn’t care.
“He’s not gonna get away,” the border czar said on Thursday. “If we have to sit outside that jail every day, 24/7, we’ll get our hands on him. New York City, or any other sanctuary city, is not gonna stop ICE from keeping President Trump’s promise to eradicate every criminal illegal alien, every public threat illegal alien, every national security threat illegal alien from this country. We’ll get it done.”
Get ‘em, and we cannot emphasize this enough, out. Read more. |
Fetterman Trashes Classless Democrats |
Democrats proved Donald Trump’s assertion that there’s nothing he could do, including “find a cure to the most devastating disease,” “ to make them stand or smile or applaud” on Tuesday, and not all party members are thrilled about it.
John Fetterman bucked his fellow liberals for their “unhinged petulance” during the speech, specifically calling out opposition lawmakers for refusing to applaud the 13-year-old cancer survivor the president honored in his address.
"I don't know why we can't fully celebrate," the senator reflected. "I mean, I have a 13-year-old myself, and thank God she's never had cancer, but I think that's something we can all celebrate there. And I think it was a touching moment. And, like I said, that's part of the best of the American experience."
Democrats might not realize it, but their classless behavior is hurting their chances of regaining power, not helping. Americans do not want petty children to run their government. Read more.

He Was Once an Olympian. Now, He’s a Wanted Drug Lord. |
There are plenty of stories of unconventional career changes.
Arnold Schwarzenegger went from being a powerlifter to a governor. Kurt Warner was an adult grocery store bagger before becoming a Super Bowl quarterback. Ronald Reagan evolved from an actor to a president.
Here’s a new one: Olympic skier to drug kingpin.
That’s the path Ryan Wedding allegedly took. In 2002, Wedding competed in the Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City, placing 24th in the parallel giant slalom. On Thursday, the FBI added him to its Ten Most Wanted Fugitives list. He is accused of running a billion-dollar Mexican cocaine operation and orchestrating multiple murders.

HOT DAMN: Daring Diner Downs 25 Carolina Reaper Peppers in Under Five Minutes |
Democrats continued to embrace their middle school cafeteria era on Thursday, serenading the House floor with “We Shall Overcome” during Al Green's censure vote.
We Shall Overcome? The civil rights anthem? You’d think social justice warriors would save that tune for their most crucial moments. What grave injustice, worthy of being likened to the oppression black Americans faced during segregation, could they see as so important that they need to bust out the same ballad championed by the Reverend Doctor Martin Luther King, Jr?
The obvious implication is that the censure itself is said injustice. But why? Any Speaker in their right mind would have removed a lawmaker for screaming and waving his cane at the President while he tried to make a speech. That was not a hard call; this isn’t some Columbia street protest. It’s the House of Representatives.
Secondly, any sensible governing body would have scorned that member for his out-of-line and attention-seeking outburst, even if only through a symbolic condemnation like a censure. Joe Wilson received the same punishment for yelling “You lie!” at Barack Obama during that president’s first joint Congressional address. Why wouldn’t Green? Do Democrats think Wilson was wronged, too?
The only thing today’s Democrat Party needs to overcome is its own incompetence. From a policy perspective, they’ve clearly learned nothing from the Trump era. Despite three straight elections of record turnout for the man they exist to hate, D.C. liberals still think embracing the neoliberal Cheney agenda is the key to voters’ hearts. We’ll never quite get over the idiocy.
Perhaps equally as important, these “resistance” politicians remain flounderingly clueless on how to convey their message, regardless of what it contains. There’s a reason only 10% of Americans think Democrat opposition has a sound strategy. Meeting voters where they are and engaging with real, independent media? Scoff. The Harris campaign could not have been bothered. But deciding the best path forward is to literally do nothing? Just roll over and play dead? And on top of it all, painting yourself as the victim by shrieking “We Shall Overcome” after one of your members made an imbecile of himself and your party on the national stage? Some way, somehow, that’s really the approach they’re taking.
Good luck overcoming it.

March 7, 1876: Alexander Graham Bell receives a patent for the telephone. The Scottish-born Bell, only 29 at the time, developed his first prototype in his Boston workshop and made his first call three days after being granted the patent. Other scientists, including Elisha Gray and Antonio Meucci, were working on similar technologies, and the debate over who should truly receive credit for the invention remains active today. |
