The more you seee Tim Walz in action, the creepier he gets. He isn't creepy like Joe Biden but he's got his own type of creepiness. For instance, Gov. Walz held an anti-gun rally at the Capitol, complete with unknowing children as props: First, notice that these children are wearing custom-printed t-shirts that say "Students Demand Action." Remember that there's another DFL anti-gun front group called "Moms Demand Action." They showed up at DFL press availabilities whenever there was a gun violence incident that needed hyping. Typically, it happened whenever the DFL wanted to ban assault weapons. Just as sure as death and taxes, these children were part of a production calling for an assault weapons ban: (The Center Square) – Six months since the Annunciation Catholic School shooting, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz has proposed a sweeping "ban" on different firearms and firearm accessories. The package includes more than a dozen new restrictions. ...

Yesterday, I called a friend of mine to update him on the just-started Operation Epic Fury joint operation between Israel and the U.S. on Iran. I was asked how I could explain how President Trumpcould explain his America First slogan and this foreign intervention. I told my friend it wasn't that difficult, that Iran was 2-3 months away from having enough fissile material to make a nuclear warhead. After that, they'd only need a missile to deliver that warhead to the U.S. Eastern Seaboard. How could a serious commander-in-chief think that the nation that's chanted "Death to America" every Friday for the past 47+ years think they weren't serious? If you think that the world's largest state sponsor of terrorism wouldn't pull that trigger, you're foolish. Out of respect for the families of the fallen heroes killed in action today, U.S. Centcom is withholding the names of the fatalities. America First doesn't mean America Only, as Democrats love to...

How will President Trump withstand Ben Rhodes' criticism now that Ayatollah Ali Khamenei is dead ? First, in truly insignificant gossip, "Ben Rhodes, a leading figure within the Obama administration who pushed for the 2015 nuclear deal with Iran, was blasted on social media Saturday after he criticized U.S. military strikes on Iran. In the immediate aftermath of the joint attack by the U.S. and Israel, Rhodes was posting criticism of the administration on social media, saying Trump and Netanyahu 'seem to be totally unconcerned about the human beings, on all sides, who will suffer.'" What a blithering idiot! That's stunning. It's important to know that Rhodes said that after the Ayatollah ordered the killing of 35,000 people who peacefully protested against Iran's terrorist regime. Let's hope President Trump can cheer himself up by reminding himself that "Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu addressed his country with an update saying t...

Earlier tonight, the U.S. and Israel launched a crippling attack against Iran . According to the Jerusalem Post, "Israel and the United States launched an attack on Iran on Saturday morning, with Iranian state media reporting explosions heard in Tehran, Qom, Isfahan, Kermanshah, and Karaj." According to Trey Yingst's reporting for Fox News, the first strike in the daring daytime attack was on the Ayatollah's compound. Further, the JPost is reporting "A security source confirmed to Walla that the United States is involved in the strikes. A US official also told Reuters American strikes in Iran were "underway," adding that strikes against Iran are being carried out by air and sea. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu issued a statement, saying that the aim of the operation was to remove the Ayatollah's regime from power . " It's worth noting that hitting the Ayatollah's compound in broad daylight sends the unmistakable message that the U.S. ...

Apparently, the city of Mankato intends to fight a losing fight against ICE . According to the article, "The Mankato City Council passed an ordinance to prohibit Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers from wearing masks or refusing to identify themselves while conducting enforcement operations, following a unanimous vote Monday. The emergency ordinance — which took effect immediately — applies not just to ICE, but to all law enforcement agencies, including federal, state and local officers." This isn't surprising, though it's foolish. What happens if? During debate of the ordinance, "City Attorney Pam Whitmore repeatedly cautioned council members that Mankato does not have authority over federal agencies, and that enforcement would be challenging in real time. 'If we pass this, and an agency comes into town, and is performing their duties and is wearing a face mask, what will happen?' asked council member Jessica Hatanpa. 'What will our o...

After President Trump's Tuesday night's State of the Union Address, Virginia Gov. Abigail Scamberger Spanberger delivered the Democrats' response . She would've been better off taking the night off. After President Trump's triumphant Address, Spanberger asked some foolish questions. She asked "Is the President working to make life more affordable for you and your family? Is the President working to keep Americans safe — both at home and abroad? Is the President working for you?" The honest answer to those questions is a) yes, b) yes and c) yes. President Trump's triumphant speech made Gov. Scamberger's speech irrelevant at best. At best, the Democrats could've hoped that Gov. Scamberger's speech would be forgotten. This year, they weren't that fortunate. President Trump has made life more affordable. Incomes are rising. Inflation is slowing. The One Big Beautiful Bill's tax cuts are kicking in. Takehome pay is increasing. In othe...
