‘Keep Nine’ Preserves Integrity and Independence of Supreme Court

By Eagle Forum

Published: 28 March 2023

We live in a Representative Democracy comprised of three branches of government – the legislative branch that makes the laws, the executive branch that enforces the law, and the judicial branch that interprets the law. This framework of the separation of powers with its important checks and balances between the branches is a hallmark of our great constitutional system. These checks and balances naturally lead to frustrations and impediments in policy and politics. This is not a flaw in our system but part of its design.

Biden's Job Is Running US, Not Israel

By Star Parker

Published: 28 March 2023

Widely reported in the press is that President Joe Biden called Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to express his concern about judicial reforms that are currently being considered in Israel.

We must wonder why Biden, who demonstrably cannot run our own country, feels behooved to tell others, particularly one as successful as Israel, how to run theirs.

Looking into Biden's own backyard, per latest Gallup polling, a paltry 20% of Americans say they are satisfied with the direction of their country.

Florida Resigns from ERIC – Cause for Celebration or for a Closer Look?

By Kat Stansell - American Policy Center

Published: 28 March 2023

Monday, March 6, Florida Secretary of State Cord Byrd announced that Florida was resigning from ERIC, the phantom address storage system. Just one week before, he had told some of the state’s citizens who had proven ERIC’s foibles to Tallahassee – that they should “just forget it”, that Florida was “never going to get out of ERIC”. Across the state, in a number of counties, there had been a rising movement to hold county Supervisors of Election responsible for the bad addresses on the rolls, and to get out of ERIC. However, Tallahassee still loved ERIC, and they made that clear.

DeSantis Was Right on Ukraine

By Pat Buchanan

Published: 28 March 2023

"While the U.S. has many vital national interests ... becoming further entangled in a territorial dispute between Ukraine and Russia is not one of them."

So Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis volunteered in response to a questionnaire that Fox News reporters posed to declared and potential Republican presidential candidates.

DeSantis defined what he saw as a truly imperiled U.S. "vital interest."

Hunter Biden Had Spy Inside FBI, Memo Details Payments to Biden Mafia

By R. Cort Kirkwood - The New American

Published: 28 March 2023

Hunter Biden had a spy inside the FBI who tipped off his Chinese business partners about investigations into their shady if not illegal activities, and the Israeli man who knows the story about the renegade G-man — or woman — is in jail.

Gal Luft, once a lieutenant colonel in the Israeli army with connections to U.S. and Chinese intelligence, the New York Post has reported, says U.S. authorities arrested him because he wants to reveal yet another aspect of Hunter Biden’s global influence-peddling and get-rich-quick schemes.

Honey, Joe Biden Just Shrunk Our Pension

By Stephen Moore

Published: 28 March 2023

President Joe Biden recently issued his first veto since taking office on Jan. 20, 2021.

Biden rejected a bipartisan bill that would have required investment fund managers to take politics out of their investment decisions and to stay focused on providing the best return to their clients as much as possible.

Why should you care? Because Biden was, in effect, saying it was permissible for fund managers, who have control of trillions of dollars in pension accounts, to take into consideration a company's ESG score (related to how it stands on racial justice, climate change and LGBT issues) when they decide where to invest the money.

The Troll Sagas

Published: 25 March 2023

Chapter 11 - The Early History of the Trolls

Long, long ago, even before the people of Thor, or Odin, or Frey came to Northern Europe, Norway was inhabited by a race of trolls. Following the age of endless winter, warm winds began to bless the Great Sea, and Jumala swept away the ancient fog that covered Norway’s mountains and fjords. There dawned a new age of many sun-bright days and blue skies, revealing the great beauty and wisdom of Jumala, the Creator of all things.

Stories from Ukrainian Soldiers at Bakhmut

By Mike Scruggs

Published: 21 March 2023

Excerpts from March 17 Kyiv Independent et al.

I have subscribed to the Kyiv Independent Ukraine Daily for a little more than a year as a source of news on political, economic, military, and foreign policy issues in Ukraine. This has, of course, been largely war news since March 2022.  Shortly after the war began, all news on the war had to be approved by the Ukrainian Army General Staff. There is no longer unfettered free speech or a free press in Ukraine, and political parties and media opposed to President Volodymyr Zelensky have been closed down. Nevertheless, carefully read, the Kyiv Independent Daily, despite its obvious restrictions,  understandable pro-Ukrainian bias, and ultra-strong anti-Russian slant, can sometimes be a source of truth unavailable elsewhere. Sometimes you have to read between the lines, and sometimes someone slips in something you know the Ukrainian General Staff and Internal Security Police would not approve unless they had some circuitous special objective. One possible motive is the desperate need for more financial and political support from the West against impending Russian victory. However, sometimes journalists insist on slipping some uncomfortable truths in their work despite pressures to conform to propaganda objectives.

I’m A Conspiracy “FACTIST”! Are You? - Part 1

By W.H. Lamb

Published: 21 March 2023

“In politics, nothing happens by accident; if it happens you can bet it was planned that way.” (Attributed- probably incorrectly- to President Franklin Roosevelt.)

I assume that most of us are aware of the concept of “conspiracies” throughout world history, and we’ve probably heard that term used for much of our lives.  Even today we hear the uninformed among us ridiculing the thought of “political conspiracies”, said ridicule usually emanating from popular but  ill-informed “talking head pundits” or globalist-controlled MSM outlets all over the political spectrum who love to attack and disparage “conspiracy theorists” (people who areconvinced that there are genuine conspiracies among us at this very time, based on evidence they feel is compelling), and to whom the mouth breathing masses pay homage, like a horde of ignorant lemmings following the “wisdom” of a vacuous script reader or pretend “expert” who is standing on the edge of a precipice, doing his best to entice his fellow lemmings into jumping over the cliff of chaos. The more politically astute and educated among us are fully aware that “conspiracies”—political or otherwise—have existed in the past or exist now, and what has been the affect upon history of such activities.  I suggest that the first order of investigation into “conspiracies” is to define the word:

South Carolina Rolling Out ‘Woke-come’ Mat

By Diane Hardy

Published: 21 March 2023

“We’re not living in 1992 anymore …”

Most South Carolinians are unaware of the $1.3 billion incentive package aimed at inducing VW to manufacture Scout electric vehicles in the Palmetto State.  With promises of up to 4,000 jobs, we at the Mom and Pop Alliance of South Carolina saw this deal sail through the S.C. House by a huge majority with little to no time for debate – or for legislators to hear from their constituents.  Now it’s on to the S.C. Senate which we feel sure will be pressured to rubber stamp the deal asap.

The President's Budget Reveals the Real Priority: Tax Hikes

By Veronique de Rugy

Published: 21 March 2023

Budgets are about priorities. In the Biden administration's new budget, its apparent priorities are marred by problems. Here's the cheat-sheet version: Rather than containing explosive growth in spending, it would use a bunch of new taxes to wage class warfare.

While this budget is dead on arrival in Congress, it's worth reviewing some reasons why this is so. The president aspires to spend around $6.9 trillion next year, a 55% increase over pre-pandemic levels, and $10 trillion by 2033. While Biden hopes to raise an extra $4.7 trillion over 10 years in taxes, the debt would nevertheless grow over the next decade by $19 trillion as the debt-to-GDP ratio increases from 98% to 110%. All this debt in a high-interest rate environment would have Uncle Sam fork over $10.2 trillion in interest payments alone over that time.

Why is China Buying Texas?

By Sid Miller, Texas Agriculture Commissioner via Eagle Forum

Published: 21 March 2023

Our federal government has given the green light to allow a Chinese company, owned by a former communist government general, to purchase 180,000 acres of Texas land near the Rio Grande, just north of Laughlin Air Force Base, in order to build more wind turbines.

The project includes a 30,000-square-foot lodge and private runway, allowing the Chinese to move people and equipment free from federal oversight. Experts warn the Chinese will be able to monitor and potentially interfere with air traffic at America’s largest pilot training facility at Laughlin.

Ron DeSantis Joins the Fight for Sanity Against the Foreign Policy Blob

By Josh Hammer

Published: 21 March 2023

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis' written statement to Tucker Carlson heard around the world earlier this week on the Russia-Ukraine war has caused nothing short of a full-scale meltdown from the arrogant, consistently wrong-thinking, military-industrial complex-addled band of bipartisan dunderheads who collectively comprise the American ruling class's foreign policy "blob." The reality is that the governor, also a likely 2024 presidential candidate, should wear the blob's dripping scorn as a badge of honor.

Nullify the World Health Organization

URGENT; ACT NOW:The WHO, working in conjunction with the Biden administration, has published a draft of its planned global pandemic treaty, the “Zero Draft of the International Instrument on Pandemic Prevention, Preparedness, and Response.”This agreement, if implemented, would dramatically increase the WHO’s power, making its edicts (including in response to “pandemics”) legally binding on its member states, putting Americans under the control of its authoritarian bureaucrats.
