Not that it's surprising but Chicago was the scene of another horrific murder this weekend. Guy Benson's op-ed should awaken the senses of people with common sense across the nation. That means idiots like Hakeem Jeffries, Sen. Chuck Schumer and Sen. Amy Klobuchar will continue with Joe Biden's open borders and sanctuary city laws. FYI- Sen. Klobuchar isn't stupid. She's just spineless . Benson's op-ed opens by saying "Sheridan Gorman was just 18 years old. A freshman at Loyola University in Chicago, she hailed from Westchester County, New York. She posted on social media that she was looking forward to the warmer weather arriving in the city she planned to call home for the next four years. Her friends adored her. Her family loved her deeply. 'She was full of life, full of kindness and full of a love that she gave freely to everyone around her,' they wrote in a statement, adding, 'she made people feel seen. She made people feel valued.'...

When I was young, I could look up to Democrats (to a large degree) like JFK, RFK, Daniel Patrick Moynihan, Scoop Jackson, Sam Nunn, Walter Mondale and Hubert Humphrey. Each of these men were patriots with gravitas. The only Democrat that comes close to fitting into that category today is John Fetterman. Fitting into the 'dirtbag camp' today are Sen. Schumer, Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid, Hakeem Jeffries, Ilhan Omar, Rashida Tlaib, Ayanna Pressley, Cori Bush, Jasmine Crockett and Elizabeth Warren. Considering the people on the 'Dirtbag List', it isn't surprising that the 'Dirtbag Democrats' insist on fighting a losing TSA shutdown fight . The Democrats' losing TSA fight is virtually guaranteed because Sen. John Kennedy, (R-LA), has entered the fight with a fantastic idea. He's stated that Democrats won't vote for any DHS bill that funds DHS. As , Sen. Kennedy puts it , "It is a fact that the Karen wing of the Democratic Party is in ascendency, an...

Walter Hudson nailed it in his last legislative update when he said "During the trifecta years, Democrats pushed extreme bills that nobody was asking for and nobody wanted . Then, Republicans broke up their full control of the Capitol and Democrats have morphed into obstructionists by doing all they can to block things that people are asking for and absolutely want." During the Trifecta, the GOP did what they were supposed to do. They started listening again. They asked questions about what the people wanted. Compare that with the DFL telling the activists what the DFL planned on doing. Then Rep. Hudson wrote "Last week, House Democrats spoke against a new stream of education revenue for our children that would come at zero cost to the state." The DFL said no because this new stream of revenue was dedicated to school choice. There isn't a snowball's prayer in H-E-Double-Toothpicks that Education Minnesota would sanction that. Then Rep. Hudson re-inforced the...

While Sen. Schumer's shutdown continues to create pain across America and elsewhere, a true American hero, a man pilloried by the left, has stepped forward . At one point, Elon Musk was a hero of the left. As the manufacturer of Tesla EVs, he was praised by the left. He's stil a hero, just with a different group of fans. Early this morning, Elon Musk made the offer of a lifetime, cementing himself as an American hero. He tweeted "I would like to offer to pay the salaries of TSA personnel during this funding impasse that is negatively affecting the lives of so many Americans at airports throughout the country." As a LEGAL IMMIGRANT to the U.S. of A., Musk has a deep appreciation for the Stars and Stripes. Unlike Sen. Schumer, Musk puts the good of the nation ahead of the good of his political party. By putting nation first, he's the benficiary of tons of goodwill. As of noon CT, Musk's tweet has had over 35,500,000 views. Clear-thinking patriotic Americans lov...

Democrats, aka donkeys, aka jackasses , voted again to keep the federal government shut down . The question is simple. What do Democrats think they're gaining by doing this? Do they think that they're winning over voters? It's difficult picturing a political party being that stupid. It's difficult picturing people standing 3-4 hrs. in TSA lines in airports aren't gaining a new appreciation for Sen. Schumer's shock troops. The article reports "The Senate failed to end the partial government shutdown on Friday as Democrats — for the second time in less than a year — continue to withhold their votes to reopen the government over a policy dispute." It's been widely reported that the Democrats' supporters insist that Democrats fight President Trump. Period. To the Democrat resistance, resistance is the only acceptable reaction to President Trump's policies. Democratic Pennsylvania Sen. John Fetterman was the lone Democrat to cross the aisle in f...

It's patently obvious that the DFL is soft-on-crime. After reading this article , it's obvious that the DFL is opposed to enforcing laws but is enthusiastic in helping law-breaking agitators disrupt church services. According to the article, "On Jan. 18, anti-ICE agitators stormed into Cities Church and disrupted its Sunday morning worship service. Protesters harassed churchgoers, shouted anti-ICE chants, and created such turmoil in the sanctuary that the worship service had to be abandoned. The agitators allegedly stormed the church because they believed one of the pastors was an ICE official . Since then, dozens of individuals have been charged with federal crimes for their participation in the Cities Church storming." It's irrelevant if one of City Church's pastors is an ICE official. According to the Constitution, the pastor could be an atheist. By letting activists/agitators disrupt a church's worship service the State of Minnesota is violating the E...
