One year ago last Friday, 13 of America’s bravest died while attempting to preserve order at the gates of the Kabul airport. It was an impossible mission foisted upon them by an incompetent leader. We were warned by Obama’s secretary of defense and by Barack Obama himself.

They died because Joe Biden lied. Five months prior, Biden insisted, “If we leave, we’re going to do so in a safe and orderly way.” It was anything but “safe” and “orderly.”

They died because Joe Biden surrendered the security of Kabul to the Islamofascist Taliban.

They died because Joe Biden ignored his generals.

They died because Joe Biden surrendered his responsibility as commander-in-chief.

Remember the American heroes who died one year ago.

  • Marine Lance Cpl. David Espinoza
  • Marine Sgt. Nicole Gee
  • Marine Staff Sgt. Darin Taylor Hoover
  • Marine Cpl. Hunter Lopez
  • Marine Lance Cpl. Rylee McCollum
  • Marine Lance Cpl. Dylan Merola
  • Marine Lance Cpl. Kareem Nikoui
  • Marine Cpl. Daegan Page
  • Marine Sgt. Johanny Rosario Pichardo
  • Marine Cpl. Humberto “Bert” Sanchez
  • Marine Lance Cpl. Jared Schmitz
  • Army Staff Sgt. Ryan Christian Knauss
  • Navy Hospitalman Maxton Soviak

Never forget their sacrifice, that of their families and that of all our heroes who fought and died in Afghanistan.

FBI Election Meddling

Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg made a disturbing admission Thursday. He told Joe Rogan that the FBI came to Facebook and warned them about a potential burst of Russian propaganda just as the Hunter Biden laptop story was about to break.

Of course, being good a American, Zuckerberg did not want to unwittingly cooperate in Russian disinformation. So, when the laptop story broke, Facebook used its infamous algorithms to suppress the news during the critical time when a hot story gets legs.

We know that officials in the FBI were telling others in the Bureau to “deep six” the laptop.

We know that key Deep State leaders led the charge to lie about the laptop, calling it “Russian disinformation.”

But the only link to Russia was the Soviet-style tactics our officials used to keep the truth from the American people!

If there wasn’t one fraudulent vote cast in 2020, the election was still fraudulent because of the police state suppression of information critical of one candidate. It influenced the results, and it’s a big reason why millions of Americans are furious.

Now we’re witnessing another attempt to turn this election into a fraudulent election. The raid on Donald Trump’s house 90 days before the election has served the purpose of Biden, his party and the Deep State by distracting the media from Biden’s failures and potentially ginning up his left-wing base with hysterical anti-Trump fearmongering.

And, if the unconstitutional raid leads to an indictment of Trump, that will be a fraudulent attempt to influence the 2024 election.

These are the tactics you see in totalitarian nations. You arrest your opponent, you intimidate his supporters, and you censor information.

Wake up, America!

Playing The Fascist Card

Several weeks ago, Joe Biden tried out a new attack against his political opponents, calling them “ultra MAGA Republicans.” We laughed at the alleged insult. After all, who doesn’t want to be “ultra Make America Great Again”? Biden and most Democrats evidently.

Well, Biden was at it again Thursday. At a campaign rally in Maryland, Biden said that the philosophy behind the MAGA movement “is like semi-fascism.”

There you go again, Joe! This is coming from the man who said Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan were going to put black Americans “back in chains.”

But Biden wasn’t the only one playing the “fascist card.” A day after winning the Democrat nomination for governor of Florida, Charlie Crist unveiled his campaign slogan Wednesday: “Defeat fascism, defeat DeSantis.”

Crist’s chances of defeating DeSantis are about the same as a snowball on a Miami sidewalk in August! But that’s not his purpose.

His purpose is to smear DeSantis with the “fascist” label so that if Trump doesn’t run, some portion of our movement will think, “Gee, this Ron DeSantis guy is really controversial.”

Steel yourselves, my friends. It’s no coincidence that within 24 hours of each other, both Joe Biden and Charlie Crist used “fascism” to attack the GOP and the most popular Republican after Donald Trump.

By the way, this is what the Marxist left does in virtually every country it takes over. Just like Antifa, they demonize their opponents as “Nazis and fascists.” They claim to be saving the country from fascists, just like Antifa.

Meanwhile, Joe Biden is about to sign a nuclear deal with the mullahs of Iran, who routinely promise a second Holocaust. Biden’s deal will increase the chances that another six million Jews will die, this time in Israel. Hitler must be applauding from hell.

Biden Brings Unity

Joe Biden has achieved a rare moment of unity. He’s brought the left and right together in opposition to his ludicrous student loan bribe. The Washington Post and the Wall Street Journal both editorialized against it.

Within 24 hours of announcing the program, the cost estimate the White House initially provided was blown out of the water. Miguel Cardona, Biden’s far-left secretary of education, said Thursday that he didn’t have any idea how much it will cost. But one estimate is now up to $500 billion.

The Biden White House is doing its best to sell this scheme with populist language, claiming to be helping people, not big corporations. (Wake up, GOP!)

The obvious problem is that Biden is bailing out his privileged, college-educated, left-wing base. Their degrees should give them far greater earning potential than those who have not attended college. So, they don’t deserve the extra welfare.

Millions of working-class people know this is true, which is why some Democrats in tough races are now publicly attacking Biden’s student loan bailout scheme.

I am pleased to report that scores of House Republicans are reminding Speaker Pelosi of her own words indicating that Joe Biden does not have the authority to forgive debt, and demanding that she take action to stop this outrageous giveaway to privileged elites.

Good News
