The U.S. Midterm Elections: A Very Possible Outcome
Given the extremely narrow margins in Congress, such differences may not merely reduce losses or gains. They could determine control of the House and influence the Senate balance with only modest seat changes.

Why Does the State of Florida Have a Problem With the First Amendment?
In other words, Florida’s legislative process currently rewards overreach and relies on vigilance to fix it later.
That should worry conservatives most of all. The First Amendment does not exist to protect popular speech, approved industries, or friendly officials. It exists to protect criticism—especially criticism of those with power.

MUSLIM BROTHERHOOD & CAIR, DOMESTIC HATE GROUPS?
ndependent of foreign advocacy media, U.S. court records, sworn testimony, and government actions establish that the Muslim Brotherhood and CAIR exhibit the organizational, ideological, and operational characteristics historically treated under U.S. law as hate-based extremist enterprises, justifying enhanced scrutiny, exclusion from public institutions, and civil-rights enforcement actions.

MURDERBOAT 2.0, THE MEDIA JOINS IN
There is an unmistakable pattern whenever Donald Trump attempts to elevate strong, patriotic leaders inside the U.S. Armed Forces: suddenly, anonymous sources appear, allegations harden into “facts,” and the entire Washington bureaucracy works overtime to destroy that individual before he can rise.

Copy of “The Future of World Trade Isn’t About China’s Ships — It’s About What China Will Have Left to Ship.”
But this narrative has one fatal flaw:
It assumes China will always have goods worth shipping — and that America will always need China’s ships to receive them.
The reality is very different, and the numbers tell a far more sobering story for Beijing.

THE CASE TO EXPOSE COVID TYRANNY. DOES 1-2 V. HORCHUL IS GOING TO SCOTUS?
Employers argued that allowing unvaccinated religious objectors would cause an undue hardship by endangering patients.
If the underlying assumption—“vaccination prevents spread”—is disproven, the hardship becomes speculative rather than substantial.
Under Groff v. DeJoy, 600 U.S. 447 (2023), a hardship must be “substantial in the context of the employer’s business.”
Evidence that vaccinated and unvaccinated staff transmitted equally would significantly weaken that defense and

DIGNITY ACT OF 2025 VS. 2013 IMMIGRATION MODERNIZATION ACT
At a glance, the Dignity Act offers a tough-on-border, merit-based compromise—emphasizing work, strict penalties, and no immediate citizenship. But from a conservative standpoint, the key red flags are:
“Legal status without citizenship” potentially becoming permanent by default, undermining immigration sovereignty in future.
Implementation details—e.g., oversight to ensure no welfare access, preventing chain migration creep.
Dependency on subjective “security certifications

REPORT — “Anchor Babies,” the 14th Amendment, and the Modern Birth-Right Fight
The principle of birthright citizenship, enshrined in the 14th Amendment, was written to guarantee full legal status to formerly enslaved Americans—not to incentivize illegal immigration or exploit the welfare system. Yet in today’s immigration landscape, a growing number of illegal entrants use childbirth on U.S. soil as a legal tether—creating so-called “anchor babies” to secure benefits, delay deportation, and eventually legalize the parents' status.

TRUMP'S NEW IMMIGRATION ODYSSEY IS OFF TO A BAD START
In the United States today, the cost of food has risen between 30–50% over the last four years. For lower- and middle-income families, especially those in agricultural regions, this is not just an inconvenience—it’s a crisis. Meanwhile, the federal government continues to pour billions into agriculture subsidies, crop insurance programs, and bureaucracies that do not ensure affordability for American households. The disconnect is glaring.

“The Immigration War Can Stop at Any Moment—If We Want It To.
This essay lays out not just the mechanisms of betrayal, but the path of restoration. It proposes a lawful, humane, and constitutional method to regularize honest laborers without amnesty, without citizenship, and without compromise to our sovereignty. More importantly, it names the saboteurs and outlines how they can be held accountable.
The time has come to stop pretending this is accidental. The invasion can be halted. The system can be restored. If we still believe in ou

Alligator Alcatraz Exposed: Florida’s Secret Plan for a Rapid Deportation Pipeline
Everything about the Jetport grab—short-term tents, runway ready for jets, 60-day legal window—screams transit station, not prison. The state’s deception rests on speed and opacity: get migrants in, get them out, and claim victory before judges can rule. Unmasking that timeline—and forcing a real environmental, fiscal and legal reckoning—is the surest way to ground “Alligator Alcatraz” before the first deportation wheels leave the tarmac.
