Walking the Razor’s Edge: This One is Personal
This past Friday I had the distinct pleasure and honor to spend the afternoon and have dinner with two great Americans. They were the 16th Sergeant Major of the United States Marine Corps, SGM Carlton Kent, and my good friend, former MMA Champion and former Marine Force Reconnaissance Staff Sergeant Chad Robichaux. We went shooting at my hangout, Crossfire Defense Academy where SGM Kent took us to the woodshed with a Colt 1911 .45 pistol, but I redeemed the Army honor with my 300 Blackout and...

No Shortage of Leftist Buffoonery
Greetings, everyone!
Perhaps after this week, we do need a little comic relief. Therefore, it is time for our end of week respite that we call “Stuck on Stupid Saturday.” Yes, as always, there were many different candidates to receive this week’s highly contested recognition. However, this week our awardees hail from the west coast, the Pacific Northwest. That is right, plural, awardees. There are two folks who have earned this dubious distinction: one from California, the other, Oregon.
As r...

Chuck and Nancy: American Lives Matter
I have stated previous, every day there should be a flood of calls to the offices of Senator Schumer and Speaker Pelosi of the real victims of criminal illegal immigration. These leftists — who denounce this issue as a “manufactured crisis” — must be forced to admit that Americans are losing their lives to those who should not be in our country . . . period! This whole government shutdown episode is absurd and unnecessary. The safety and security of law-abiding American citizens should be th...
Real vs. Manufactured Crisis
There was once a master propagandist who asserted something like, the more you tell a lie, it will eventually become truth. That has, without a doubt, been the mantra of the progressive socialist left aided by their accomplices, the liberal progressive media. And, there is no greater evidence of collusion than the coordinated messaging of the left, and a complicit media, on the issue of border security vs. government shutdown. One is indeed a real crisis, unreported, and the other a truly man...

An American Mother’s Plea to President Trump
One of the things about having such a platform as I am blessed to have is the responsibility of giving a voice to others. As you know, I have been I have been a staunch supporter for pardoning US Army 1LT Clint Lorance. For whatever reason, Clint’s cause has not reached the eyes and ears of President Trump and those who could make a difference.
Any travesty of justice disturbs me, especially when it happens to those we ask to defend our nation. I will continue to speak out on Clint’s behalf,...

The Right to Keep and Bear Arms
When you look at what is happening in Venezuela, the average person has lost 20 pounds due to being malnourished. You have places without running water and electricity. Inflation is at an unfathomable. Unarmed people are gunned down and tear-gassed in the streets by the loyal henchmen of socialist dictator Nicolas Maduro, a former bus driver. Ask yourselves, how could the most prosperous country in Latin America become so impoverished, and the people who were once proud citizens, now rendered...
AOC and the Hypocrisy of ‘Immoral Billionaires’
Ya know, if there is one thing I must address it is progressive socialist hypocrisy. Just last week we had the socialist mayor of New York City, Bill de Blasio, state that there was lots of money in NYC but it was in the wrong hands. DeBlasio also asserted his belief in property confiscation.
I truly believe that the Father of Classical Liberalism, John Locke, is spinning in his grave. Remember it was Locke who put forth the political philosophy of natural rights theory, as opposed to divine...

Taxpayer-Funded Death: A Moral Wrong
US taxpayer funds should go toward the constitutional functions of the government. I find it rather disturbing when taxpayers fund ideological agendas. And that is what we have when you think about the funding of the organization, Planned Parenthood. This past weekend, Planned Parenthood released its fiscal 2017-2018 report, to little hoopla. Sure, there are going to be progressive socialist leftists who will say that Roe v. Wade made what Planned Parenthood constitutional, law of the land. M...

Content of Character Over Color of Skin
We celebrate Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. today; my dad’s birthday would have been tomorrow. He taught me a powerful lesson about “content of character” over “color of skin.” I discussed it with Ben Shapiro in this clip. Click here for the full interview.
