Von Spakovsky: ‘Conservatives Need Not Apply’ Under Proposed Team Biden Hiring Rules

Von Spakovsky: White House “Cleansing” of El Paso Akin to 1936 Berlin Olympics
Some have compared the cleansing in El Paso, Texas, before President Biden’s border visit to the fake villages that Grigory Potemkin is said to have set up along a route traveled by Catherine the Great.

China: America’s Top Geo-Political Foe
It does not take an expert on China to see what is happening, just some common sense and guts . . . both lacking in this current, and compromised, Biden administration.
The Contributing Factor to Lawlessness
The greatest contributing factor to the lawlessness we now see is a lack of courage.
What is the Law?
We live in a constitutional republic, not a constitutional monarchy. We abide by the Law, which exists to protect our rights, freedoms, and liberties. We are not bound to obey, or be ruled by, edicts, orders, mandates, decrees, and rules which reflect more ideology than constitutionality.
