Please do not forget the name of the National Guardsman killed in Washington, D.C., by a radical Islamist that Joe Biden brought into our country. Her name was Sarah Beckstrom, and there are all kinds of powerful people who want you to forget about her.
 
They don’t want an investigation into why her Islamic extremist murderer and hundreds of thousands like him are in the United States. They don’t want anybody to reach any conclusions about radical Islam and actually do something that might upset their secular globalist agenda.
 
The Democrat Party wants to move on from Sarah as quickly as possible. But they are interested in somebody who has been killed, but it’s not Sarah Beckstrom, a brave American heroine.
 
No, Democrats are angry because two foreign drug traffickers whose names we don’t know were killed while attempting to bring another boatload of their poison into the United States.
 
Democrats are claiming this was a war crime because the boat was hit twice and there were no survivors. In military parlance, it was a “double tap,” or firing two shots in quick succession to guarantee a successful hit.
 
Democrats and their left-wing media allies are running around with their hair on fire, demanding emergency hearings on Capitol Hill. They want Pete Hegseth’s scalp now. And, if they win control of Congress next year, this will be their first excuse to impeach Donald Trump again.
 
Don’t miss the striking contrast.
 
Leftists are shedding tears and expressing more emotion over two foreign drug dealers than they are for a young American woman who died defending our nation’s capital. Sarah Beckstrom was shot twice. Her murder was also a “double tap” meant to guarantee her death.
 
Both of these incidents involved efforts to protect America. Sarah Beckstrom was protecting the residents of Washington, D.C., and the U.S. military was protecting American lives by sinking cartel drug boats.
 
But all that matters to Democrats and the leftist media are the Venezuelan drug dealers. That tells you everything you need to know about the demented worldview of the political Left and the fake news media.
 
 
 
The Anti-American Left
 
I’ve noticed in the past few days that many statements from leftist politicians about Sarah Beckstrom are short and perfunctory. Then they attack President Trump for deploying the National Guard to Washington, D.C. You see, it is Trump’s fault—not the Islamist murderer or Joe Biden, who brought him to America—that she is dead.
 
I also noticed that many of these politicians increasingly offer only their “thoughts” to Sarah Beckstrom’s family. Just like Obama dropped references to our Creator when he quoted the Declaration of Independence and just like Biden dropped references to God in his Thanksgiving messages, many leftists have dropped references to “prayers” at times of tragedy and sorrow.
 
Today’s Democrats think it is risky to offer prayers. We saw what happened when Christian conservatives offered prayers for the children killed in a Minneapolis Catholic church. Christians were criticized for mentioning prayers!
 
Their party is so deep into radical secularism and hostility to God that the people who want to be their party’s nominees for president and vice president dare not speak the name of the Creator of the universe, let alone utter the name of Jesus.
 
In the case of Sarah Beckstrom, all of the Left’s passion, interest, and commitment was on the side of her Islamist murderer when they brought him into the country along with hundreds of thousands of other people with the same worldview.
 
The Left’s commitment to mass migration was more important than the right to life of a native-born American woman who joined our military. Just like the massive influx of 20 million people that Joe Biden and Kamala Harris brought into the country was more important to the Left than the lives of Laken Riley, Jocelyn Nungaray, Rachel Morin, and every other victim of criminal illegal aliens.
 
In the confrontation between the American military and foreign drug traffickers, all of the Left’s passion, anger, and commitment is with the drug traffickers they have never met, who are not part of our country, and who are killing Americans.
 
Democrats rush to demand that those drug traffickers get every protection of the law—protection to keep them safe from the U.S. military and Commander-in-Chief Donald Trump.
 
In fact, when they pointedly reminded members of the military they don’t have to follow illegal orders, they had already said that deploying the National Guard was an illegal “abuse of power.” They were talking to the now deceased Sarah Beckstrom. They were trying to get people like her to defy orders of the commander-in-chief.
 
They have already said that strikes on drug cartel boats are “illegal killings.” They want our military personnel to stop following President Trump’s orders, and they want drug traffickers and their poison to come in.
 
If these drug thugs do get in, Democrats will fall on their sword to make sure each one has the best legal representation they can find from left-wing law firms. They have always shed more tears for the jihadists at Gitmo than they did for the soldiers who fought them.
 
 
 
Media Lies
 
Every day the American people are being told that everything the Trump administration is doing is “unprecedented” and “dangerous.” They are neither. They are normal actions. Here are two examples.
 
The Lie: They say Trump’s deployment of the National Guard is “unprecedented.”
 
The Truth: Presidents and governors have routinely deployed the National Guard for decades.
 
In fact, 25,000 National Guard troops were deployed to Washington, D.C., under Joe Biden. Not to keep the streets safe, but to shut off the U.S. Capitol from the American people. They put up barbed wire fences around the Capitol Building. The fencing and at least 2,000 troops stayed for months, well into 2021.
 
But Donald Trump bringing in 500 National Guardsmen to bring down crime in our nation’s capital is an “attack on Washington, D.C.” and “a prelude to martial law.”
 
The Lie: Democrats claim that Trump’s efforts to round up people who entered our country illegally and committed crimes are “unprecedented.”
 
The Truth: President Dwight Eisenhower deported an estimated 1.3 million illegal aliens during just one operation from 1954 to 1955. Bill Clinton deported 12 million illegal aliens during his two terms. Barack Obama deported 5.3 million illegal aliens.
 
Those numbers are higher than what Donald Trump has been able to do so far (approximately 4 million total in both his first term and this year) because of the Left’s constant resistance against the enforcement of our immigration laws. It is their resistance that is “dangerous” and “unprecedented.”
 
The bottom line is that you have to ignore everything you’re seeing in the fake news media. The entire “unprecedented” narrative is a lie. They are taking everything that was once normal in America and acting like it’s a threat to everything we believe in.
 
 
 
Trump Child Accounts Get A Boost
 
The One Big Beautiful Bill included a provision to help the next generation of Americans get a head start in life. Every U.S. citizen born from 2025 to 2028 will get a one-time $1,000 deposit from the federal government into a “Trump Account.” Parents, grandparents, employers, and charities—virtually anyone—can also contribute to a child’s Trump Account.
 
So, kudos to Michael Dell, CEO of Dell Technologies, and his wife, Susan! They announced yesterday that they are putting up $6.25 billion—that’s billion with a B—to provide additional “seed money” for the Trump Accounts of 25 million American children.
 
Michael Dell told CNBC, “We know that when children have accounts like this, they’re much more likely to graduate from high school, from college, buy a home, start a business and less likely to be incarcerated.”
 
Trump Accounts are a tremendous way to provide the next generation with more than just a financial boost. They will give young Americans some “skin in the game,” and, hopefully, a greater appreciation for free market capitalism. That’s what made Michael and Susan Dell’s incredible contribution possible.
 
Socialism doesn’t create wealth. It destroys wealth.
 
 
 
Another Jihadist
 
Luqmaan Khan, a 25-year-old undergraduate student, was arrested Monday night in Wilmington, Delaware. He’s charged with plotting an attack on the University of Delaware’s Police Department.
 
It seems our holiday season of Thanksgiving, Chanukah, and Christmas may be periodically interrupted by acts of terrorism from the “religion of peace.”
