Have you ever thought about 18 minutes? It can go by in the blink of an eye if you’re doing something really fun. But sometimes 18 minutes can seem like a long time if you’re sitting in the dentist’s chair or stuck in a traffic jam.
 
Sadly, we just learned about one woman’s last 18 minutes, and it should convict all of us to get involved in the battle to save America.
 
Eighteen minutes was the time it took for Jose Ibarra, an illegal alien and a monster, to brutally murder Laken Riley. Those 18 minutes were described in a courtroom as family and friends wept in agony.
 
Adding to my frustration and anger about this inexcusable and completely preventable crime is the fact that we were all unknowing accomplices in Riley’s murder.
 
It turns out that Ibarra was flown by the Biden/Harris administration, at taxpayer expense, on a “humanitarian flight” from New York City, a left-wing sanctuary city, to Georgia, where he stalked Laken Riley and killed her.
 
That flight was anything but “humanitarian” for Laken Riley.
 
There are millions of illegal aliens in our country. More than 1.3 million of them are here in defiance of court orders to leave the country. Ignoring a court deportation order is a criminal offense punishable by four years in jail. We also know that so-called “sanctuary cities” are protecting thousands upon thousands of criminal illegal aliens.
 
Virtually every day since the election, Democrat governors, mayors, state legislators, and left-wing groups are declaring that they will do everything they can to protect who they call “our people.”
 
But they don’t mean Laken Riley, and they don’t mean citizens like you. They mean people like Jose Ibarra and other illegal aliens. These Democrats are pledging to resist Donald Trump’s effort to make America safe again for actual citizens.
 
We won a great victory on Election Day. But the war for the heart and soul of America is far from over. The left isn’t giving up. And neither can we. All of us must be active in this fight to save America.
 
The next four years may well be the most important four years in America’s history. My non-profit public policy organization American Values and I plan to do more than we have ever done before, and there is so much to do. I pray that God will move many to join our cause and to continue to support our work in defense of Faith, Family, and Freedom.
 
 
 
The President’s Priorities
 
Incoming Border Czar Tom Homan recently outlined the president-elect’s main immigration priorities. They are: 

• Secure the border. That’s the most important thing.
• Get criminal illegal aliens and national security threats out of the country.
• Find the 300,000 migrant children that Biden and Harris lost.

 
There is broad support among the public for Trump’s immigration policies and priorities. The latest Harvard/Harris poll finds: 

• 72% of Americans support deporting criminal illegal aliens.
• 64% support closing the border by reinstating past Trump policies.
• 58% support deporting illegal aliens on welfare.

 
Deporting criminal illegal aliens might seem like a no-brainer and an area where both sides could find common ground. But Democrats in Congress (here and here) have bitterly resisted efforts to deport even criminal aliens!
 
 
 
Stop The Steal
 
As we have reported, Democrat election deniers are working feverishly to steal the Pennsylvania Senate seat won by Republican David McCormick. They went so far as to approve the counting of illegal votes, including undated mail-in ballots, in the automatically mandated statewide recount.
 
This is an important issue, and not just for its obvious impact on the outcome of the Senate race. The state’s supreme court had already declared that it was illegal to count undated mail-in ballots.
 
But Democrats don’t care about the rule of law. They only care about power, and they approved the counting of illegal votes in spite of the supreme court’s decision. 
 
In response, the Republican Party filed multiple lawsuits objecting to this blatant attempt to undermine our democratic process and overturn the election results. Even the left-wing Washington Post editorial board was outraged by the actions of Pennsylvania Democrats, saying they were “corrosive to democracy.”
 
Well, there’s good news. Monday, the Pennsylvania Supreme Court issued another decision declaring it was illegal to count undated ballots. The justices also ordered rogue Democrat officials to comply with the decision.
 
After the court’s decision, Josh Shapiro, Pennsylvania’s Democrat governor, issued a statement saying, “Any insinuation that our laws can be ignored or do not matter is irresponsible and does damage to faith in our electoral process. The rule of law matters in Pennsylvania.”
 
Nice statement, but late, late, late!
 
 
 
Trans Week
 
Yesterday was the last day of Transgender Awareness Week. Evidently, the entire month of June isn’t enough for the “T” in the LGBTQ crowd. And don’t forget Transgender Day of Visibility, which falls in March.
 
Joe Biden and Kamala Harris usually go all out for these things, but I haven’t seen anything about it. And I suspect you didn’t either, unless you’re stuck on a left-wing college campus.
 
It turns out that this year “Trans Awareness Week” became “Trump Awareness Week.” Isn’t that promising? The effort to transition America into a neo-Marxist state was stopped by Donald Trump and us! Now we have to finish the job of making America great again!
 
 
 
Charges Dropped
 
Earlier this year, there was disturbing news that two Jordanian men, both illegal aliens, were detained after they attempted to gain access to the Marine Corps base at Quantico, Virginia.
 
This was just one of hundreds of such attempts by foreign nationals, many posing as tourists, to breach the security of U.S. military bases all over the country.
 
You’d think the government would take this seriously. But it’s just been reported that the Biden Justice Department dropped the charges against the two Jordanians.
 
Out of curiosity, I did a few online searches to see if there were any stories about foreign nationals being convicted or sentenced for trespassing on military bases. I found only one.
 
So, if you’re an illegal alien from the Middle East breaching the perimeter of a U.S. military base, you go free. But if you’re an American grandmother walking through the Capitol — it’s prison for you!
