There are two interesting items in the 1776 Constitution for the State of Virginia. The first one is in the second paragraph and it reads as follows: Whereas George the Third, King of Great Britain and Ireland, and Elector of Hanover, heretofore intrusted with the exercise of the Kingly Office in this Government, hath endeavoured to pervert the same into a detestable and insupportable Tyranny; by putting his negative on laws the most wholesome and necessary for the publick good;"Putting his negative" What this means is a veto. This would upset anybody. The people of Virginia want to do something,...

John Jay, the first Chief Justice of the United States, was a staunch opponent of slavery.

On Sunday's edition of MSNBC's The Weekend, a frequent MSNBC guest, Fordham professor Christina Greer, unloaded: "The history of the United States is literally predicated on white supremacy, anti-black racism, patriarchy, and capitalism . . . Let's be clear, our history is filled with murder. We are a bellicose nation. It's filled with rapes and exclusion."Get the rest of the story and view the video here.

An interesting thing is happening right now and its really a fantastic opportunity to highlight just how useful our current roster of audio books is in the context of how home schoolers and others can remind our fellow Americans that yes, our Founding Fathers did get it right - and that includes on the topic of slavery, and where can you find the truth? How can you give others the truth? How can we all join together to undermine America's historical class who does not want anybody to know the real American history? Slavery was indeed bad. Let's get that...

I'm leery of AI but this seems to be pretty spot on.

A multi-year investigation centered on multiple motels, “brow and lash” salons and alleged human trafficking in and around Nebraska’s largest city has led to charges against five people in the hotel business. The five, who own, operate and manage the involved hotels, are accused of crimes ranging from alleged sex and labor trafficking, fraudulent use of visas, money laundering and concealing undocumented immigrants, law enforcement officials announced Tuesday. Also seized as part of the search warrants was $565,000 in cash and jewelry. A representative of U.S. Homeland Security said workers in the country without proper documentation also were detained, though...

Finally, the truth regarding slavery

While America grapples with its own dark past of slavery, a massive chapter of history gets buried by academics who fixate on Western guilt. Justin Marozzi’s eye-opening book, Captives and Companions, shines a light on the Islamic world’s slave trade, spanning over a millennium with unmatched scale and savagery. This isn’t ancient news, but it is a wake-up call for historians. Marozzi estimates that from the 7th century to the 20th, up to 17 million Africans and Europeans were enslaved in Muslim lands, dwarfing the transatlantic trade’s 11-15 million.

When Englishman Thomas Pellow was 27, he led a slave-hunting expedition to the West African coast. His orders were to plunder the villages, kill the adults and capture the children. But Pellow was not a mercenary employed in the transatlantic slave trade, which sent millions of its victims across the ocean. He was a slave himself – taken prisoner as a child by the Moroccan Sultan Moulay Ismail. And 300 years ago, he was far from alone. The sultan owned an estimated 25,000 European slaves, many seized in raiding expeditions on the south coast of England as well as countries...

VIDEOWatch as woke Commies try to shut down someone trying to speak the TRUTH about slavery. The audience tries to shut him down by yelling but perhaps even worse the moderator continually tries to talk over him. The TRUTH about slavery is something they can't handle so they try to drown out the TRUTH.

Sanctuary cities and states exist not for the altruistic reasons blue state leaders claim, but because of profit—the profit of slavery.Progressives portray sanctuary cities as a necessary means to balance public safety, human rights, and local autonomy in the face of federal immigration enforcement. Sanctuary City supporters harp on false narratives. Thus, they’ll routinely raise a handful of now familiar arguments:Encouraging the reporting of crime, thereby reducing itLimiting federal overreachProtecting due processPreventing family separationSupporting economic contributorsMoral resistanceUpholding American valuesThe truth is different. Sanctuary city proponents are in the slavery business.Image created using AI.A recent ICE raid shows how it works:Department...

HARRIS COUNTY, Texas – A man from Honduras is facing serious charges for allegedly kidnapping a woman and leaving her locked in a room for days, as part of what Harris County Sheriff’s Office investigators are calling a larger human smuggling and sex trafficking ring. According to deputies, Jose Carcamo, of Honduras, was arrested Monday and charged with aggravated kidnapping. Court records obtained by KPRC 2’s Bryce Newberry claim Carcamo locked a woman inside a room for five days at a home on Elderberry Lane past East Houston off Highway 90. There, the documents said Carcamo said he left her...

The famous DataRepublican data analyst dropped damaging information she had gathered about Code Pink's connections to the communist Chinese government after the group threatened legal action against her. The database kernel engineer, whose real name is Jennica Pounds, said Wednesday on social media that the group sent her a message accusing her of libel. "We are writing to formally address and correct the false and defamatory statements made in your recent social media posts regarding CODEPINK," the group reportedly wrote. "These claims — which falsely allege that our organization is funded by China, the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), or any...

Twenty-one children are in the custody of a California child-welfare agency while authorities investigate a Los Angeles-area couple and whether they misled surrogate mothers around the country. Fifteen children were removed from the couple’s opulent home in Arcadia after an abuse allegation in May, and another six living elsewhere were also located, Arcadia police Lt. Kollin Cieadlo said. They range in age from 2 months to 13 years, with most between 1 and 3. “We believe one or two were born biologically to the mother,” he said. “There are some surrogates who have come forward and said they were surrogates...

The Left’s obsession with illegal immigration is getting worse, and weirder, as it strains to resist any and all attempts to enforce immigration law. The immigration raids in and around Los Angeles have resulted in more violent actions from “protesters” and more ridiculous defenses from Democratic politicians. On the latter front, Gov. Gavin Newsom (D-CA) called President Donald Trump “scum” for a raid that resulted in “Kids running from tear gas, crying on the phone because their mother was just taken from the fields.” Weirdly, Newsom did not think to find out why nearly a dozen children were out in...

Federal authorities have confirmed that more than 300 illegal aliens were arrested Thursday during an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) raid at a Ventura County, California cannabis farm. Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem confirmed on X that 319 unlawful immigrants were apprehended during the raid at Glass House Farms, and said that "law enforcement rescued 14 children from potential forced labor, exploitation, and trafficking." The raid is believed to be the second-largest single-state ICE worksite operation in history, behind the first Trump administration's 2019 Mississippi chicken plant raids that netted almost 700 illegal alien arrests. One man taken...

Federal immigration agents, assisted by members of the National Guard, carried out raids at two Southern California cannabis farms, arresting dozens, including undocumented minors, in an operation that drew several hundred protestors and violent clashes with officers. The immigration sweeps, one at Glass House Farms in Camarillo and another about 35 miles up the coast at another Glass House facility in Carpinteria, unfolded simultaneously at around 8:30 a.m. United States Attorney Bill Essayli confirmed the operation in a post to X. “Federal agents are executing a search warrant at this marijuana farm,” he wrote. “Agents have already arrested multiple individuals...

On Monday, Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk warned that there’s a concerted “influence campaign” underway in Washington to quietly steer President Donald Trump toward granting mass amnesty—even after he secured a major border-and-security funding package. Kirk says elite “ruling class” players, emboldened by recent spending wins, are now pressuring Trump to “come to the middle” on immigration by legalizing up to 25 million undocumented residents. Since the promise of mass deportations helped win Trump the White House, conservative voters now fear that a shift toward “soft amnesty” could alienate their base. Don’t worry, the Trump administration has put those...

While people are distracted by the holidays and the Big Beautiful Bill, there is another serious push for immigration amnesty in Washington. You'll hear the same lines we've always heard: Crops rotting in the field, economic collapse, global hunger, and more (even though countless other countries harvest plenty of food without needed imported serf labor) Here’s the key thing to know: We’ve seen this EXACT same script run before. Literally, the same one. The 1986 Immigration Reform and Control Act, better known as the “Reagan Amnesty,” gave a path to citizenship for illegal immigrants who worked as farm laborers. The...
