There’s something almost poetic about watching millionaires with private chefs, gated estates, and therapy horses crumble under the weight of one man with a Twitter account and a bad comb-over.

Ah, Congress—where the bills are long, the titles are misleading, some “Republicans” are Democrats in disguise, and the devil isn’t just in the details—he’s practically drafting the legislation. Exhibit One is Rep. María Elvira Salazar, everyone’s favorite white Cubana. She’s a “Republican” representing the swingy patchwork quilt that is Florida’s 27th district, and her latest…| Skating Under The Ice

I sometimes wonder if people are willfully blind or just blissfully clueless about what illegal immigration actually means. Most folks seem to think the only law broken is that someone hopped a fence or strolled across the desert without a hall pass from Uncle Sam.

If you’ve ever gazed in wonder at the sheer number of illegal aliens in California and thought, “What’s the draw?”, let me offer a simple answer: It’s a veritable cornucopia of taxpayer-paid plenty. “Free” schooling, “free” healthcare, “free” legal aid, and now, if you’re in Los Angeles, a shiny new addition to the buffet—cold, hard…| Skating Under The Ice
For today’s venture into the news, let’s take a stroll through the sun-drenched fields of California, where the grass is greener, the laws are hazier, and the logic—well, that’s gone up in smoke.

Let’s talk about the American Dream, 2025 edition: you work hard, you play by the rules, you pay your taxes, and—if you’re Austin Yeazel of Middletown, Ohio—you wake up one morning to discover you’ve apparently been moonlighting at two jobs you’ve never heard of, raking in nearly $90,000 per year.

Under the Biden Administration, the 2021 National Strategy for Countering Domestic Terrorism said the biggest domestic terrorism threat was from violent right-wing extremists.
