This morning, President Trump issued an ultimatum to Iran . Let's hope this is President Trump's final ultimatum before he blows them to smithereens. The time for dancing is over. It's time for serious men to enter the picture. It's time for a man with President Reagan's moral certainty to step into this situation. While this isn't the equivalent of the Cuban Missile Crisis, it's a grave, once=in-a-lifetime situation. It's obvious that President Trump doesn't grasp the situation. When he said "Iran must immediately stop their highly paid PROXIES in Lebanon from causing trouble. If they don’t, we’ll hit Iran very hard again, just like we did last week, only harder!!!" That's meaningless. The IRGC and Besij are messianic. They can't wait for the return of the twelfth imam, which they think will start the end times. In painstaking detail, Mark Levin lays out in exquisite detail what's happened and what's likely to happen: Mark ...

If Barack Obama hadn't spent so much time listening to his wife, he not've turned into the lecturing know-it-all that he's been most of his political life. During their speeches at the opening of President Obama's Presidential Center, the thing that spoke loudest was the criticism of the president who wasn't there . Politico reports that "President Donald Trump was conspicuously absent from Thursday’s dedication of the Obama Presidential Center, the only living commander in chief not in attendance. But the Obamas made a point Thursday of delivering a pointed rebuke of the man who succeeded them in the White House, all while refusing to mention him by name." The Obamas have lived the American Dream. Too often, though, they've complained about this great nation. Michelle Obama is famous for saying "For the first time in my adult lifetime, I am really proud of my country. And not just because Barack has done well, but because I think people are hung...

Friday night, Rep. Angie Craig and Minnesota Lt. Gov. Peggy Flanagan sat for questions on Almanac. To say that it was feisty is understatement, especially with all the accusations, counter-accusations, corrections and setting the records (yes, plural) straight. Angie Craig got asked the first feisty question, which was about immigration. She was asked why she voted for President Trump's immigration bill. Craig was the first to mention that she's worked tirelessly on "comprehensive immigration reform." Conservatives watching or reading that response, feel free to feel ill. We know that phrase is the Democrats' go-to phrase to virtue signal that they care about "undocumented workers. HINT: they aren't undoocumented. They're here illegally. If Rep. Craig wants a chaotic situation, live in Europe. It's getting so bad that they're adopting President Trump's policies. Apparently, even Democrats appreciate tranquility. Another section of the deb...

Rob Manfred, the commissioner of Major League Baseball (MLB), is about to face scrutiny like he's never faced before. Last week Friday, the San Francisco Giants hosted Pride Night to 'honor' the LGBTQIA+ community. The problem that arose was that Giants' pitchers Landon Roupp, JT Brubaker and Ryan Walker wrote Bible verses on their team-issued hats . According to the report, "The players referenced Genesis 9:12-16, a passage on the rainbow covenant." After God destroyed the Earth and its inhabitants (except for Noah and his wife and their 3 children and their wives), God established His Covenant with Noah, saying "I now establish my covenant with you and with your descendants after you and with every living creature that was with you—the birds, the livestock and all the wild animals, all those that came out of the ark with you—every living creature on earth. I establish my covenant with you: Never again will all life be destroyed by the waters of a flood;...

The U.S.-Iran MOU is off to a rocky start. According to David Strom's HotAir article , Iran plans on requiring shipping insurance to "the Persian Gulf Strait Authority, which will allow you to transit the Strait—after considering your application to do so—if you pay insurance fees to it." That sounds like Iran isn't changing its ways, which is what I've been preaching for 2+ months. The U.S. had their foot on Iran's throat before agreeing the first cease-fire. That's the first signal that Iran read as weakness. Now the talk is that President Trump is interested in a negotiated settlement. That's another appeasement signal to Iran. If the U.S. continues sending those appeasement signals, we will fritter away whatever leverage we've had. Further, it isn't wise for V.P J.D. Vance to threaten Israel's cabinet like he did yesterday: Thus far, VP Vance's instincts on national security/foreign policy have been questionable. At this point, I pr...

Based on Ben Smith's article , I'd say it'd be kind to say that Rep. Ro Khanna, (D-CA), got his butt kicked by Maria Bartiromo when they debated the SAVE America Act . First, Khanna argued "I don’t think people should have to go get their birth certificates and go to the registrar. We have a system that allows people to vote if they’re citizens. And by the way, if you’re not a citizen and you vote, you should have enormous penalties, consequences. I'm for making sure that we criminally prosecute people who are voting illegally." FIRST REBUTTAL: How do determine who's a citizen. Here in St. Cloud, MN, lots of Somalis vote legally and speak broken English at best! Giving municipalities the tools is the only way make these vital determinations. Further, when EVERYONE has to produce their birth certificate, charges of racism are meaningless. Bartiromo wasted little time blasting Khanna. She said "That’s the law. You can't vote if you're not an ...
