Biden's defense spending at pre-World War II levels; Our Incompetent Elite is Opening Up America to Attack...more

Biden ignoring Pentagon, defense spending at pre-World War II levels   “There are numerous signs that the Pentagon’s budget is inadequate. Arms deliveries to embattled allies are lagging. Recruiting drives are falling short of goals despite loosened standards. Equipment maintenance is not keeping up with needs, while acquisition of new systems is not matching the pace of Chinese weapons production,” he wrote this week.

Our Incompetent Elite is Opening Up America to Attack The people running this country have made choices – like throwing open the border – that are going to kill a lot of Americans because our enemies, unlike our alleged leaders, are serious people. They’re serious about subjugating and killing us. But the only things our leadership is serious about are keeping their names off pervert passenger lists, skimming endless Ukrainian cash, and pronouns, pronouns, pronouns, always pronouns. We have a distinctly unserious elite in the most serious of times.

For 2024, the Biden DoD is requesting a record $115 million to fund DEI.
This is in addition to the $68 million they spend in 2022 and $86.5 million in 2023.

VA Blasted For Processing Illegal Aliens' Medical Care Claims While Thousands of Vets Wait But while the VA has been processing claims for healthcare for illegals, nearly 420,000 benefit claims filed by veterans and their families are currently sitting in a pile still awaiting adjudication. That number has ballooned from the 150,000 or so that were already waiting for a decision in late 2022, even as thousands of veterans have turned to charitable organizations trying to make up for the lack of care available from the VA and the federal government at large.

Second-Largest Foreign Owner Of US Land Is A Chinese Communist Party Member   Oregon Republican Rep. Lori Chavez-DeRemer said she was “deeply concerned that individuals tied to the Chinese Communist Party are buying up timberland, which is one of our most precious and finite resources.”

What If the West Only Accepted Christian Refugees from the Muslim World?  Christians are real victims of persecution. From a humanitarian point of view -- and humanitarianism is the chief reason cited in accepting refugees -- Christians should receive top priority simply because they are the most persecuted group in the Middle East. As former Australian Foreign Minister Julie Bishop once put it, “I think that Christian minorities are being persecuted in Syria and even if the conflict were over they would still be persecuted.”

At Least 132 Catholic Clergy and Nuns Arrested, Kidnapped, Murdered in 2023...Catholic persecution is still rising around the world, especially in Africa. The stats do not include members of the Catholic Church. Terrorists slaughtered almost 200 Catholics across Nigeria and destroyed villages, leaving tens of thousands homeless from December 23-26.

America’s ‘Social Justice’ Nightmares Have Only Intensified...The people who elect Democrats are wrecking their own communities  Think about that for a minute. Police in Seattle are patrolling restaurants to enforce the city’s plastic utensil ban, even while the city’s “progressive” policies require cops to ignore the junkies shooting up on the sidewalks. Peddlers of fentanyl go about their deadly business unmolested, but a restaurant owner could go to prison for giving his customer a plastic straw.
How many exclamation marks do you want me to put after a sentence like that? It is difficult to express in words how crazy Democrats have become. What can explain this madness?

Breezes and sunshine cannot manufacture anything...Electricity CANNOT exist without crude oil!  Energy literacy starts with the knowledge that renewable energy is only intermittent electricity generated from unreliable breezes and sunshine, as wind turbines and solar panels cannot manufacture anything for the 8 billion on this planet.
All the parts and components for wind turbines, solar panels, nuclear, hydro, and mining equipment used to extract the metals and minerals to build clean “electricity” are made with oil derivatives manufactured from crude oil!

Hertz is selling 20,000 used EVs due to high repair costs...The rental car company will replace them with gasoline-powered vehicles   At the end of Q3 2023, Hertz told investors that significant price cutting during the year had "resulted in lower EV residual values, increasing vehicle depreciation expense and negatively impacting salvage cost." Additionally, its rental EVs were damaged or crashed more often, and the much higher cost of repairs for Tesla vehicles—on average about 20 percent higher than other EVs—has meant that Hertz's Teslas earn it less money per vehicle than its other rentals.
