U.S. Senator Tom Cotton (R-AR) sent a letter on August 4, 2025 that asked IRS Commissioner Billy Long to investigate the Council on American Islamic Relations (CAIR) for compliance with IRS Section 501C3. However, Billy Long is no longer the IRS Commissioner. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent has temporarily taken charge as the IRS Director.
CAIR’s agenda has been very destructive to American values with its dozens of frivolous lawsuits, advocacy for convicted terrorists, opposition to federal laws and policies that protect Americans from terror, and agenda to replace the United States Constitution with Sharia law. … Continue Reading
Last month, it was a woman named Holly who was punched in the face and left unconscious in downtown Cincinnati. Last week, it was the brutal beating of a 19-year-old man named Edward Coristine, who, while protecting his girlfriend during an attempted carjacking, was left bloodied and shirtless on the streets of the District of Columbia.
Why are these stories becoming so commonplace? Why are hordes of young men, from Seattle to San Diego and from Minneapolis to Miami, now taking over America’s cities like a pack of rabid wolves?… Continue Reading
Self analysis can be helpful. Or harmful. Discovering and admitting to weaknesses should lead us to making changes that will move us forward. Failing to make that honest assessment can bring us to a sense of failure and even despair.
The political fallout from the 2024 elections has forced Democrats into some heavy self analysis. It’s even created a sense of helplessness to some degree. Pinpointing the core problem seems to be a mystery.… Continue Reading
During his interview on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, Illinois Governor JB Pritzker was confronted with the reality of the state’s wildly gerrymandered Congressional Districts.
In a sad attempt to make light of this serious issue, Pritzker tells Colbert that his Democratic predecessors “we handed it over to a kindergartner class and let them decide…”
It would be funny if it weren’t so very serious. The maps disenfranchise conservative voters all across the state and undermine our republican form of government.… Continue Reading
For years, Americans concerned about election fraud have been dismissed, mocked, or accused of undermining democracy. But facts are stubborn things. And the facts in New Jersey just caught up with a powerful Democrat insider.
Craig Callaway, a former Atlantic City Council President and longtime Democratic political operative, was sentenced this week to 24 months in federal prison for orchestrating a widespread vote-by-mail fraud scheme during the 2022 general election.… Continue Reading
Across Illinois and the nation, the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) has been quietly expanding its footprint by acquiring U.S. farmland. According to 2023 data from the USDA, Chinese investors now own approximately 277,336 acres of American agricultural land. While that number may seem modest, the trend is accelerating—and raising serious national security concerns.
In response, U.S. Representative Mary Miller (R‑Quincy), a member of the House Agriculture Committee, recently introduced H.R.… Continue Reading

Last week, I posted a comment on Facebook from Amichai Chikli, Israel’s minister of diaspora affairs, whereby he said there is a growing concern among Israeli leaders that people in the West don’t understand we are undergoing the same existential threat that his country is facing, but just in a much more subtle way.
“I think it is very important for Americans to understand,” he said, “that there is a plan by the Muslim Brotherhood [and its proxy organizations such as CAIR, the Council on American-Islamic Relations] to make America a Muslim state.” … Continue Reading
Last week, Illinois Governor JB Pritzker raised the possibility of redrawing the state’s congressional map before the 2026 midterm elections, positioning it as a direct response to Republican-led redistricting efforts in Texas.
Pritzker, who has his eyes set on becoming the next Democratic nominee for the White House, hosted a delegation of Texas Democratic lawmakers in Illinois, offering political support and strategic coordination with fellow Democratic governor Gavin Newsom of California.… Continue Reading
French President Emmanuel Macron and British Prime Minister Keir Starmer announced this week that their countries would unilaterally recognize a Palestinian state.
The first problem with that is “Palestine” is a fictional place. There never was any such thing.
And diplomatic recognition of it no more changes this reality than if Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu were to decide to recognize the archipelago of Islamic banlieues on the outskirts of Paris as an independent nation.… Continue Reading
For months, Republicans and Democrats alike have insisted on keeping the Medicaid subsidy scam alive — even as it drives inflation and enriches the health care cartel. With the Biden-era expansion of Obamacare “marketplace” subsidies set to expire in December, both parties want to renew them. But this moment offers Republicans a rare opportunity: Finally lower health care costs for Americans not living on government handouts.
Obamacare buried the middle class
The ill-named Affordable Care Act helped Republicans win more elections than any issue in recent memory.… Continue Reading
