Upon receiving a copy of “Climate Action 2030,” recently released by Navy Secretary Carlos Del Toro, in which he identifies climate change as an “existential threat” to the U.… read more

Over the past six months, I’ve been telling you how the Democrats planned to milk the January 6, 2021 protest on our nation’s Capitol, while warning that we faced the danger of losing our democracy, in an attempt to salvage control of the House and Senate.
At his Summit for Democracy, President Biden referred to “the defining challenge of our time,” noting that “democracy was in retreat in the U.S.” … read more

“There’s a lot going on right now, but the idea we’re gonna be able to, you know, click a switch, bring down the cost of gasoline is not likely in the near term, nor is with regard to food.” – President Biden, June 1, 2022

President Biden:
Just minutes into President Biden’s May 24 remarks on the school shooting in Uvalde, Texas; after mourning the loss of the beautiful, innocent children, and the comforting words for the families, it was if he threw his “angry” switch.
