More than 200 political prisoners were released by Nicaragua this morning. The 222 prisoners were put on an early morning flight to Washington and will arrive in the next few hours. On state television a judge said the government had decided to "deport" the prisoners, saying they had been declared traitors and can never again serve public office. A U.S. State Department spokesperson said Nicaragua made the decision "unilaterally," but that the United States had "facilitated the transportation" and the political prisoners would be admitted into the United States for "humanitarian reasons." Ever since anti-government protests erupted in Nicaragua in...

Whenever the Vaccinocrats get challenged with contrary evidence, all they can do is yell “DISINFORMATION, MISINFORMATION.” They seldom have an honest rebuttal, but rather call on their cancel culture pals to censor alternative evidence. They just expect everyone to fall in line. So, here’s their chance to meet the challenge of the best collection of “misinformation” on the web: The Emperor Has No Clothes. 100+ Reasons for Concern about the VaccinesGo for it, Vaccinocrats!

Here's a quick question for all you Constitutional scholars: Which of the enumerated powers authorized to the federal government are described in the Bill of Rights? None, of course. Except in later amendments, regulatory powers given the federal government by the Constitution of the United States are listed in the body of the Constitution.

Virginia the Court said: "Its intrinsic merit entitles...

Looking for other examples of where Kerry is contrary to himself at the same time. (Kerry's schizophrenic ideas.) Example to start: Kerry wants the USA to "outsource" the Iraqi war at the same time he feels we should not have "outsourced" the conflict in Afganistan.

Last month Kerry posed for a photo op waving around a shotgun -- with his finger on the trigger. Last week there was Kerry at another photo op with a shotgun. This time the hypocrite was holding a type of weapon he wants to ban (S. 1431). Lurch would have us believe he favors the Second Amendment, but that is just another political lie. Fact is, we have Kerry's 20 year voting record in the Senate and that shows two interesting things: Kerry votes 100% socialist and he has voted to violate the Second Amendment to the Constitution every single...

The Talmud (Tractate Berachot) tells us, “Three things are acquired through suffering: the Law of God, the World to Come, and the Land of Israel.” These three things are the birthright, the inheritance and the promise of every Jew. And yet the suffering of the people in Israel is intense, almost unbearable. The Israelis are being pressured to make more and more concessions “for the sake of peace” while the enemies of Israel are required to give up nothing, not even their stated intention to ultimately overwhelm the Jewish population and put an end to the Jewish state. And the...
