On September 14, 2022, I asked, “How is an American death by fentanyl different than death by an enemy bullet or a roadside IED?”
Citing our successes in taking out Osama bin Landen, Qasem Soleimani and Ayman al Zawahiri, I wrote that we have the intelligence capability within our CIA to systematically destroy the Mexican pill labs, one by one.… read more

Regular readers may recall that I suggested here, on September 14, 2022, that those Mexican cartels responsible for producing fentanyl pills for smuggling into America needed to be treated as terrorists.
That is, they should be taken out just as we did Qasem Soleimani and Ayman al Zawahiri. While they were eliminated with the use of drone-fired Hellfire missiles, I suggested we tap the covert intelligence capability of the CIA to systematically destroy their labs, one by one. … read more

“We went to Afghanistan almost 20 years ago with clear goals: get those who attacked on Sept. 11, 2001, and make sure Al Qaeda could not use Afghanistan as a base from which to attack us again. We did that.” – President Biden, Aug. 16, 2021
While our foreign policy genius appeared satisfied that our withdrawal from Afghanistan a year ago had cooled the terrorism threat, he said “we’ll not take our eye off the terrorist threat,” as he boasted of our over-the-horizon drone strike ability.… read more
Commentary
In 2001, “If you see something, say something” became a national campaign, launched to raise public awareness of the indicators of terrorism, as well as other suspicious activity, and reporting it to law enforcement.
While listening to President Biden, it occurred to me what he wasn’t saying, so I am devoting this post to things said and not said, seen and not seen.… read more
Commentary
While the term “great replacement theory” has been bandied about for a while, it surfaced in the manifesto of the Buffalo shooter, who saw the “crisis of mass migration” as an assault on our population that will result in the complete racial and cultural replacement of white people.
The left has been finger-pointing at Fox’s Tucker Carlson for fomenting unrest because he has frequently criticized the Biden administration’s open borders policy that has led to mass migration, “designed to change the racial mix of the country.”… read more

Watch Zelensky’s Speech or Go for Ice Cream?
When White House Mouthpiece Jen Psaki was asked if President Biden would be watching Ukraine’s President Zelensky’s virtual presentation to Congress on Wednesday, she intimated it depended on his daily schedule. Really, Jen?
As a former spokesman in the corporate world, her answer should have been: ‘While I haven’t seen his schedule for the day, I’m sure viewing that speech will preempt anything previously scheduled.’… read more

WHILE THE DOJ IS SO OBSESSED with domestic terrorism caused by extremist white supremacists that it has formed a special unit equipped with massive resources to address it, they’ve taken their eye off anti-Semitic threats.
Anti-Semitic attacks have grown since the 2018 killing of 11 people in the Tree of Life synagogue shooting in Pittsburgh.… read more
Regular readers know that I don’t make a practice of publishing full transcipts of speeches, television interviews or press conferences, choosing instead to take excerpts from them to use in my commentaries. However, I felt the Senate Minority Leader’s response to President Biden’s over-the-top speech was called for, and I wanted you to read his defense of the Republican Party.… read more
Commentary
By now, you must have noticed that the left is diverting its scare tactics over climate change, systemic racism and the viruses to make you believe there’s a new threat. We are in danger of losing our democracy and we need to fear domestic terrorism.
During his Summit for Democracy last month, President Biden referred to the struggle as “the defining challenge of our time,” noting that democracy was in retreat in the U.S.”… read more
