Every minute, of every hour, of every day last month, our Border Patrol encountered an average of 4.6 people along our southern border.
208,887 total encounters in August, according to data released just a couple hours ago. Massive numbers, once again.
Think about that. It’s more than one encounter by our Border Patrol every 15 SECONDS. And it doesn’t even account for those who make it… Read more »
Here’s the perfect example of “soft bigotry of low expectations.”
To graduate high school, do you think students should reach some reasonable standard of knowledge? If so (and hopefully so), how do you determine whether or not that knowledge has been attained? Standardized testing would be one viable option, right?
That was the case in Oregon, which had the “Essential Skills”… Read more »
More on Biden’s misguided vaccine mandate last week. To recap, the President has directed the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) to write rules applying to EVERY company with more than 100 employees.
These rules would require workers to either be vaccinated or submit to weekly Covid testing. And get this: failure to comply could result in fines up to $14,000 per… Read more »
Democrats are after more of your money. That’s no surprise, but we’re just now getting a better look at exactly what they’re after, based on documents circulated over the weekend.
“Why?” is a logical question. In other words, why are Democrats trying to raise taxes? The answer is because they’re working on massive increases in federal spending – a lot of it on social, climate, and other… Read more »
Having retired from the Navy, a man named Leonard Farrington felt such a strong call to action after the terrorist attacks of 9-11-2001, that he marched right back in to a recruitment office and tried to re-enlist. This time in the Marines.
The only problem? Well, this WWII veteran was now 78 years old at the time. You just have to admire that level of patriotism and boldness.
So… Read more »
Between the World Trade Center, Pentagon, and Shanksville, Pennsylvania, almost 3,000 innocent people lost their lives 20 years ago. Click here or the image above to watch my tribute to the victims of the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks. Read more »
Moments ago, a VACCINE MANDATE was announced by President Biden. (After he previously opposed mandates.)
For companies with 100 or more employees, his "plan" would force those employees to either be vaccinated or submit to Covid testing at least once a week.
This is NOT within the President's authority, and is just another example of his overreach from the Oval Office. The courts need… Read more »
It's bad enough to leave Americans behind following President Biden’s horrifically botched withdrawal from Afghanistan.
You’d think the least that Secretary of State Blinkin and the rest of this administration could do is help accommodate private evacuation efforts… which are underway to pick up their slack!
Once again: this is one of the WORST presidential failures of our… Read more »
On a scale of craziness from 1 to 10, the next few weeks in Congress should easily hit 15. (Maybe higher.) Here’s what’s coming down the pike:
First, the utter disaster in Afghanistan. President Biden’s botched withdrawal ignored countless critical details and numerous warning signs. Hands down, this is one of the WORST presidential failures of our lifetime. It won’t be long before much… Read more »
It's been an exhausting week, but well worth it. We just wrapped up a series of in-person town halls all over the district, and I want to thank the hundreds of people who showed up. It was great to see and hear from so many folks!
Also a special thanks to Rep. William Timmons who joined me in Spartanburg, the dozens of law enforcement officers who kept us all safe, and all the venues… Read more »
