Unmasking Europe’s Self-Destruction: Crises Fueled by Naive Elites

Europe Faces Four Self-Inflicted Crises

Europe Faces Four Self-Inflicted CrisesVictor Davis Hanson – Europe is plagued by a number of existential crises. Yet they are all self-inflicted — and by a dominant, therapeutic culture that embraced utopian but lethal bromides.

These suicidal wounds are now nearing the end-stage. Indeed, they are destroying the very civilization that was soon envisioned to be heaven on earth.

The global warming hysterics could not just entertain gradual transformations away from dependencies on traditional fuels and power generation. Continue reading

Australia’s Bold Move: Shipping Criminals to Nauru Again

The Return of “Transportation” Sentencing? Australia Seeks to Ship Illegal Aliens to Small Pacific Island

The Return of “Transportation” Sentencing? Australia Seeks to Ship Illegal Aliens to Small Pacific IslandJonathan Turley – It has been 157 years since the last ship taking convicts from the United Kingdom landed in Australia. Now, in a crushing historical irony, Australia is contracting with the small Pacific island of Nauru to resettle foreign-born criminals who the courts have ruled cannot be imprisoned indefinitely.

The court rulings show how our allies are facing the same dilemma in dealing with people who enter the country illegally and then oppose efforts to deport them for years in litigation. Continue reading

Addressing Challenges to American Democracy and Values

We’ve Been Here Before

Addressing Challenges to American Democracy and ValuesAllan J. Feifer – It’s an obvious fact that we have individuals living amongst us (citizens and non-citizens) fomenting violence, undertaking seditious acts, breaking our laws, and knowingly furthering false narratives intended to harm us. They are led by people employed by foreign governments or groups whose actions intend to overthrow our way of life, sow discord, alter our essential narratives, and disrupt our economic and political systems. In effect, they are levying what amounts to war against us.

We’ve been here before. Before WWII, there were other anti-American groups and malicious narratives similar to what we are experiencing today. Then, as now, America faced an uncertain future with war warnings and economic calamity omnipresent. Americans in the 1930s were worried about Bolshevism, anarchists, unlawful immigration, and a rising fear of “fifth columnists“ perceived to be almost everywhere. Continue reading

Democrats’ Support for Abrego Garcia Raises Eyebrows

Democrats’ decision to champion Abrego Garcia is poor politics and bad optics

Nicole Russell – I’m puzzled by Democratic politicians’ decision to turn Kilmar Abrego Garcia, an illegal immigrant and alleged member of a violent gang who’s been deported from Maryland to El Salvador, into their latest cause célèbre.

Four Democratic House members landed in the capital city of San Salvador on April 21 to appeal for his return to the United Sates: Reps. Yassamin Ansari of Arizona, Maxine Dexter of Oregon, Maxwell Frost of Florida and Robert Garcia of California. Just days earlier, Democratic Sen. Chris Van Hollen of Maryland made the same journey to meet with Abrego Garcia, who is being held in a Salvadoran prison. Continue reading

Colombian President Petro: A Closer Look at the Controversy [Video]

Married Colombian President Gustavo Petro Was Spotted with Trans Woman, Linda Yepes

Colombian President Petro: A Closer Look at the ControversyAlexandra Bruce – As everybody by now knows, last Sunday, when extreme Leftist Colombian President Gustavo Petro refused to allow two US Mililtary aircraft to repatriate hundreds of Colombian citizens arrested for being in the US illegally, Trump instantly retaliated with thunderbolts of harsh diplomatic and economic sanctions on that country.

This, in turn, elicited a lengthy and demented Twitter screed from the Colombian president, which caused many to question whether Petro might not be seriously coked-up – not unlike many other Globalists frequently seen tweaking publicly, including Volodymyr Zelesnskyy, Chrystia Freeland and Emmanuel Macron.
