“Maryland Voter”

The Imperative of Passing the SAVE Act to Safeguard American Elections The integrity of American elections teeters on the edge, as demonstrated by the Ian Roberts case, where a non-citizen illegally registered to vote in Maryland since 2012 exposes systemic flaws. The Safeguard American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) Act, passed by the House in April 2025, stands as the critical remedy to address these vulnerabilities and protect the citizen franchise. With evidence of inadequate voter roll maintenance, Democrat resistance to transparency, and the inability to quantify non-citizen voting without audits, the need for this legislation is urgent. The SAVE Act is not…

The Metastasis of the Lunatic Left’s Nightmare

Des Moines Superintendent Scandal Poisons Democrats Nationwide Just days after ICE hauled off Des Moines Public Schools Superintendent Ian Roberts-a man with a loaded Glock, a deportation order, and a resume riddled with red flags-the story has metastasized from a local embarrassment into a national indictment of Democratic priorities. What began as a betrayal of trust in Iowa's largest school district has ballooned into exhibit A for every Republican warning uttered over the past four decades: porous borders breed chaos, lax voter laws invite fraud, and "equity" hiring often masks incompetence and illegality. Roberts, the illegal alien at the center of…

Democrats Shutdown Principle

Democrats: Principally Wrong on Policy, Politics, and Process Congress has 24 hours until federal agencies shutter, veterans' checks stall, national parks close, and 2.1 million essential workers go unpaid. House Republicans passed a bipartisan seven-week CR, extending FY2024 funding to allow time for full appropriations. Senate Majority Leader John Thune pleads for Democrat votes to clear the 60-vote filibuster hurdle. Yet Chuck Schumer’s caucus demands costly riders-Obamacare subsidy extensions, Medicaid tweaks-despite a booming economy. This isn’t miscalculation; it’s a betrayal of principle. My columns, The Failure of the Cave and The Democrats’ Shutdown Folly, exposed Democrats’ cycle of hype, collapse, and…

Once a Terrorist

The Legacy of Marxist Terror: How the Left’s Violent Rhetoric Threatens Today The violent rhetoric emanating from the American Left in 2025, epitomized by the assassinations of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson by Luigi Mangione and conservative activist Charlie Kirk by Tyler Robinson, is not a spontaneous outbreak but a direct descendant of the revolutionary Marxist terror glorified during the late 1960s and 1970s. Figures such as Joanne Chesimard (Assata Shakur), Mumia Abu-Jamal, Leonard Peltier, and the Weather Underground, whose heinous crimes were reframed as acts of liberation, have been romanticized by progressive institutions, elected officials, and media gatekeepers. This glorification, bolstered…

The Lunatic Left’s Suspect Superintendent

The Outrage of an Illegal Alien Superintendent and the Des Moines School Board’s Stunning Failure The arrest of Ian Roberts, the superintendent of Des Moines Public Schools, by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) on September 26, 2025, is not just a scandal-it’s a gut-wrenching betrayal of trust. Roberts, an illegal alien with a 2024 deportation order and a 2020 weapons misdemeanor, oversaw 31,000 students in Iowa’s largest district. Notably, he was arrested by ICE illegally in possession of a handgun, a violation of 18 U.S.C. § 922(g)(5), which prohibits firearm possession by illegal aliens and carries a penalty of up…

Tipping Point

The Powder Keg Awaits-Republicans Must Go Full Throttle In my September 9 column, "Justice in the Uncivil Society," I exposed the festering wound of "suicidal empathy"-a cultural cancer that coddles criminals while spitting in the face of the innocent, birthing vigilante fantasies from Dirty Harry to The Punisher. I warned that this progressive obsession, peddled by elites who’d rather hug a felon than protect a family, was unraveling civil society. Today, mere weeks later, that unraveling has hit a breaking point-a powder keg primed by soft-on-crime judges, Democrat demagogues screaming "Nazi!" and "Gestapo!" to incite rage, and a refusal to renounce…

The Democrats’ Shutdown Folly

A Base-Baiting Blunder in a Booming Economy In my column, "The Democrats’ Shutdown Gamble: Fundraising Fodder or Political Folly?" (September 20, 2025), I warned that Senate Democrats, led by Chuck Schumer, were teetering on the brink of political self-destruction by obstructing a clean continuing resolution (CR) to fund the government past October 1. With the fiscal cliff now hours away, their gamble has morphed from a calculated fundraising play into a full-blown fiasco-especially as they cling to a laundry list of spending demands that lack majority support among Americans and cater solely to their progressive base. Meanwhile, the latest economic tailwinds…

Democrats’ Gubernatorial Gambit

Peril in the Garden State and Old Dominion In my column Five Factors Facing Democrats, I laid out five structural headwinds battering Democrats as they limp toward the 2026 midterms: a hemorrhaging voter registration edge, the relentless organizing of activists like Scott Presler and Shiloh Marx, a redistricting bloodbath favoring GOP trifectas, a fundraising chasm that’s left the DNC scraping pennies, and a seismic realignment among young Latinos tilting rightward. Those factors aren’t abstract threats-they’re manifesting right now in the 2025 gubernatorial battlegrounds of New Jersey and Virginia, where Democratic frontrunners Mikie Sherrill and Abigail Spanberger are staring down narrowing leads…

Restoring Hamiltonian Vigor

Implications of a Supreme Court Sweep Victory for Trump in Reviving the Pre-Watergate Presidency As the Supreme Court's 2025-26 term commences on Monday, October 6, 2025-less than two weeks from today-the timing could not be more urgent or consequential. With President Trump's aggressive executive actions already sparking a flurry of lower-court battles over firings, tariffs, and agency overhauls, the Court's docket arrives amid a high-stakes constitutional showdown. This term's focus on presidential authority promises to define the boundaries of executive power in real time, directly influencing ongoing policy battles and the administration's "drain the swamp" agenda. Rooted in Alexander Hamilton's timeless…

The Left’s Pattern of Violence

Bullets from the Blue Hive In the wake of September 2025's shooting spree-the assassination of Charlie Kirk, a drive-by attack on a Sacramento newsroom, and a "Free Palestine" rampage at a New Hampshire wedding-we see a clear pattern: Violence from the left, enabled by rhetoric and platforms that normalize it. This isn't random. It's the outcome of years of escalation, from 2020's riots to today's targeted hits. As Trump's executive order designates Antifa a domestic terrorist group, and media deflections crumble under scrutiny, the center-left must face facts: Your party's radicals are driving the bloodshed, and it's time to purge or…
