Re: “The Inhumane Border Crisis Is Biden’s Doing

“I see nothing inhumane about a sovereign nation defending its borders. And it’s not as if U.S. sovereignty is at question by any other nation on the globe. This may indeed now be a humanitarian crisis caused by Biden’s open-door-and-handout rhetoric, and also by the foreigners who took him up on his tacit offers. But the real inhumanity is the Democrats’ authoritarian chokehold they’re working on us, forcing us to accept and pay the upkeep for their new voters as they’re being covertly moved to the interior of our heartland. This is like forcing slaves to work to pay for the cost of the chains they wear. The U.S. abolished slavery long ago while the Democrats are now working to renew it, this time on all taxpayers.” —Illinois

Re: “Leftists Want a Bigger Credit Card

“There should be no fiscally sane entity anywhere on earth that would think that by simply attaining a ‘new’ credit card or line of credit, one’s debt problem would be solved. Our Congress is driving the bus at a hundred miles an hour towards an economic collapse and wants to hit the gas even harder.” —Maryland

Re: “A Phony Compromise on Voting

“The Freedom to Vote Act as currently proposed is unconstitutional, and it only requires a fifth-grade reading comprehension level, not a court test, to understand that. 
Any bill allowing mass mailing of ballots and lacking a photo ID requirement promotes surreptitious vote ‘harvesting’ and destroys voting integrity and fairness. It is not hyperbole to state that the U.S. Constitution and our nation are at a watershed moment, and members of Congress must recognize the gravity of the moment.” —Florida

Re: “California Recall Election Signals Trouble for Democrats

“I agree that the California recall indicates trouble for the Left, but it is also an indicator for the Right. The fix, obviously, is still in until ballot harvesting and all the other deceptive practices of the Left are stopped.” —North Carolina

Re: “Mayor’s Ultimatum to School Board: Resign, or Face Charges

“The very fact that they had to hide this material from the parents speaks to the fact they knew what they were doing was wrong. That they will not resign is a sign they will seek national, leftist legal expertise to fight this. We should throw everything we can at them and find a way to make them pay for their lack of morals. In many places these people would be jailed. What is different between this and child porn? The Hudson school board is a group of very sick people.” —Nevada

Re: “China Is Hardening Its Citizens

“I’m starting to wonder if we can right our boat and recover our sanity. With wars and rumors of wars on the horizon, we are not prepared. With the lion’s share of our manufacturing base in China, we will have to rebuild our industries when China locks us out and nationalizes all our companies. Was it worth it?” —Oregon
