Trump Responds

The crisis at the southern border is increasingly out of control. While Biden Administration officials refuse to utter the word "crisis," Secretary of Homeland Security Alejandro Mayorkas conceded this week that Border Patrol agents are being "overwhelmed" by the migrant surge.

Here's what everyone must understand: The left owns this crisis. 

Joe Biden and Kamala Harris campaigned on amnesty. They promised free healthcare for illegal immigrants. And they have gutted the border security policies that President Donald Trump put into place.

The results were predictable. With deportations down 60% since Biden took office, migrants throughout Mexico and Central America know that our border is now wide open.

Yesterday, former President Trump responded to this unnecessary travesty. He said:

"When I was President, our Southern border was in great shape – stronger, safer, and more secure than ever before. We ended Catch-and-Release, shut down asylum fraud, and crippled the vicious smugglers, drug dealers, and human traffickers. . .  Our country is being destroyed at the Southern border, a terrible thing to see!"

I'm glad Trump is speaking up. Every conservative should be.

And the state of Texas is stepping up as well. Governor Greg Abbott has ordered the Texas National Guard to the border. That's a much better use of the National Guard than the ongoing "occupation" of Washington, D.C.

Please stand with American Values now! Help us expose the open borders left!

Confronting Communist China

Just a few hours ago, as a Trump appointee on the U.S. Commission on International Religious Freedom, I participated in a hearing on human rights abuses in communist China. More specifically, the hearing focused on what American businesses are doing in communist China.

China's communist regime has declared war on all faiths. Beijing's tyrants want the Chinese Communist Party to be the people's religion. And they want President Xi to be their god. 

They have persecuted all faiths, including Buddhists and Christians. But the worst abuses right now are being committed against ethnic Muslims known as Uighurs. 

Several million Uighurs have been put into concentration camps. There have been numerous indications and warnings that Beijing is engaged in genocide against the Uighurs. Tens of thousands have been relocated all over China and forced into slave labor. It's a nightmare. But it gets worse. 

There is evidence that major American and European corporations are making their products in China with Uighur slave labor. This is a national scandal that must be exposed. But I went further in today's hearing. 

Even if the slave labor scandal is resolved, my question for American corporations is why are they building factories in communist China at all? 

Communist China is our greatest adversary. Like the old Soviet Union, Beijing has made no secret about its intentions to replace the United States as the world's sole superpower.  (See next item.) But when American corporations build factories in China, they are only strengthening our enemy. 

I have a message for these American companies: Bring your factories home! 

There are 17 million unemployed Americans. Yes, profits are important. But not more important than the country that gave birth to you and allowed you to prosper.

We were told over and over again for the past 25 years that trade with communist China would change China. It hasn't. But as I warned, it changed us. 

Major American companies that have bought into the left's woke nonsense and insist on dictating radical values to us, are silent when it comes to communist China's political oppression, religious persecution, ethnic genocide and rank racism. Instead, they have lobbied for even more trade with China.

There is something terribly wrong when American capitalists become apologists for brutal communists.

U.S. Admiral Sounds The Alarm

Make no mistake about it, my friends: Communist China intends to dominate the world. They see the West, and the United States in particular, as nations in decline, and they are eager to fill the void.

Yesterday, Adm. Philip Davidson, commander of U.S. Indo-Pacific Command, testified before the Senate Armed Services Committee. He warned senators that communist China represents "the greatest long-term strategic threat to security in the 21st century," adding that Beijing's communist bosses are "accelerating their ambitions to supplant the United States."

Davidson said that communist China's rapid military buildup, combined with its overall bad behavior, is leading to "a posture that would indicate they are interested in aggression."  He warned that Taiwan "is clearly one of their ambitions," and may be attacked "during the next six years."

Many experts believe that the only reason communist China hasn't already invaded Taiwan is that they just aren't sure how the United States would respond. Any sign of weakness on our part could lead to a tragic miscalculation by communist China.

In addition, Admiral Davidson said that the communist Chinese have "a vast disinformation machine" that utilizes nearly one million people on social media to spread communist propaganda. 

The admiral's warnings shouldn't come as a surprise to anyone. Military leaders and intelligence leaders have been telling us this for years now. And, as I noted above, the communist Chinese have been too.

Is Joe Up To The Job?

In yesterday's report, I noted some of the many struggles that have plagued President Joe Biden lately, including his trouble remembering the name of his secretary of defense (Lloyd Austin) and the building where he works (the Pentagon). 

While senility is not a precise medical term, Brit Hume has not been shy about suggesting that Biden is going senile. And it seems that a growing number of Americans are increasingly concerned that Biden may not be up to the job.

A new Rasmussen poll finds that 50% of Americans have little to no confidence that Biden is either physically or mentally fit for the rigors of being president of the United States. 

"The Age Of Rush"

Fox Nation is honoring the great Rush Limbaugh with a new four-part series about his life and legacy. It explores how he dropped out of college to get into the radio business, how instrumental he was in the 1994 "Republican Revolution," his leadership as the voice of the conservative resistance during the Obama era and the final days of his "blessed life."

The series is narrated by former Vice President Mike Pence, a former talk radio host himself, who credits Rush Limbaugh for his election to Congress.
