No, you’re not a ‘xenophobe.’ You’re just awake.



America is on fire — again. But this time, it’s not just cities burning — it’s our identity.

In Los Angeles, mobs of masked agitators — many waving the Mexican flag, others clutching Palestinian flags, and some burning the American flag — have taken to the streets, firing guns into the air, hurling rocks at ICE vehicles, blocking traffic, and setting fires.

America doesn’t need a savior. It needs a reckoning.

Where is the outrage from the media? Where are the helicopters? The FBI raids? The solitary confinement cells? When a handful of peaceful Americans entered the Capitol on January 6, 2021, a great many politely walking between velvet ropes, they were branded “insurrectionists.” Grandmothers were hunted down. Veterans were jailed without bail. But in Los Angeles, when foreign nationals tear through city streets waving foreign flags, they’re “demonstrators.”

Give me a break.

Illegal alien anarchy

What we saw in California over the weekend was the result of an illegal invasion. And it isn’t new. These aren’t “immigrants.” A great many are illegal aliens — a term defined by law — who have broken federal immigration law, ignored due process, and poured over our borders with the help of a regime that has openly defied the Constitution.

I personally know families who have tried for years to bring a spouse or child to America the legal way. They wait. They pay. They follow the rules. But if you’re an educated Christian refugee from Africa or a skilled engineer from India, you’re told to stand in line. Meanwhile, if you’re a cartel mule from Honduras or a “gotaway” with a gang affiliation, you get flown around the country on the taxpayers’ dime.

We’ve abandoned every principle that once defined American immigration: Learn English. Pledge allegiance. Assimilate. Respect the flag.

Instead, we have mobs chanting slogans that would have triggered national security alerts a decade ago. Now they trigger hashtags. And while President Trump is calling out the National Guard, California’s “leaders” stall, the courts shrug, and citizens remain unprotected.

This isn’t incompetence. It’s sabotage.

Our rights usurped

And the most dangerous part? We’ve been living under a kind of soft martial law for decades.

Since 1938, the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure quietly restructured the judiciary under a corporate framework that operates outside the Constitution. These rules merged law and equity courts, nullifying constitutional guarantees and opening the door for administrative tyranny in family courts, juvenile courts, and beyond.

Don’t believe me? Try asserting your First, Fourth, or Fifth Amendment rights in a family court. You’ll be laughed out of the room — if your children haven’t already been taken based on an anonymous tip and a judge’s rubber stamp.

If martial law is officially declared, the Constitution is suspended. That’s not conjecture — that’s legal doctrine. Read Ex parte Milligan (1866), in which the Supreme Court ruled that martial law cannot be imposed where civilian courts are open. Guess what? They’re not “open” any more — they’re rigged, corrupt, and run by private bar guilds with no accountability to the people.

It’s an old tactic. In 1933, Adolf Hitler used the Reichstag fire to suspend civil liberties and pass the Enabling Act. In 1992, Peru’s President Alberto Fujimori used a wave of urban chaos and domestic terrorism to declare martial law and dissolve the legislature. In post-9/11 America, we got the Patriot Act, a surveillance dragnet sold to us under the guise of “security.” Now we’re watching the same script play out again — engineered chaos followed by calls for federalized control and, eventually, constitutional suspension under the banner of “safety.”

Welcome to the final phase of the coup.

While MAGA people wait for Trump to ride in on a white horse, they miss the point: He’s not going to save us. He can’t. No one man can reverse decades of infiltration, judicial fraud, and corporatist collusion.

And note to MAGA: Trump gave immunity to the creators of the COVID-19 vaccine, and his “one big, beautiful bill” is fraught with overspending and a government AI takeover, in which all participants have been granted immunity for wrongdoing for a decade.

We’re done being silent

America doesn’t need a savior. It needs a reckoning.

It needs state nullification, legal rebellion, and mass resistance.

If waving a Mexican or Palestinian flag while burning the Stars and Stripes makes you feel at home, then I’ve got a simple solution: Go home.

Because this isn’t your country. You didn’t build it. You’re not assimilating. You’re here to take, not contribute.

And to my liberal neighbors still crying about how “un-American” it is not to allow these criminals to stay: What’s un-American is letting our Constitution be shredded. What’s un-American is flooding our cities with criminals while veterans sleep under bridges.

What’s un-American is weaponizing immigration to collapse a sovereign nation.

We’re not xenophobes. We’re patriots, and we’re done being silent.

'I think he's guilty of treason': Trump orders investigation into former deep-stater, 'Anonymous' official



President Donald Trump signed a pair of executive orders on Wednesday directing his administration to suspend security clearances for a pair of antagonistic officials who served in his first administration.

In addition to severing Miles Taylor and Christopher Krebs from the fount of insider federal knowledge, Trump has directed the relevant authorities in his administration to "take all appropriate action to review" the duo's activities while still government employees.

Trump characterized Krebs, the former head of the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency, in his order as a "significant bad-faith actor who weaponized and abused his Government" and engaged in "abusive conduct."

"Krebs' misconduct involved the censorship of disfavored speech implicating the 2020 election and COVID-19 pandemic," wrote Trump. "CISA, under Krebs' leadership, suppressed conservative viewpoints under the guise of combatting supposed disinformation, and recruited and coerced major social media platforms to further its partisan mission. CISA covertly worked to blind the American public to the controversy surrounding Hunter Biden’s laptop."

The president suggested further that while running the show at CISA, Krebs — a former Microsoft executive who has made no secret of his contempt for Trump and served as a key witness for the Democratic Jan. 6 select committee — promoted the suppression of information about "risks associated with certain voting practices" and "baselessly denied that the 2020 election was rigged and stolen."

Trump announced Krebs' termination via tweet on Nov. 17, 2020, days after CISA distributed a statement asserting both that "the November 3rd election was the most secure in American history" and that "there is no evidence that any voting system deleted or lost votes, changed votes, or was in any way compromised."

Krebs was portrayed in heroic terms and as a tragic figure by Democrats and other leftists. California Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D), for instance, lauded Krebs for supposedly "speaking truth to power and rejecting Trump's constant campaign of election falsehoods."

'Identify any instances where Krebs' conduct appears to have been contrary to suitability standards for Federal employees.'

Krebs, who went on to call the president a "wannabe tyrant," responded to his termination on X, writing, "We did it right."

Trump has tasked Attorney General Pam Bondi and Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem with determining whether Krebs in fact "did it right," directing them to "identify any instances where Krebs' conduct appears to have been contrary to suitability standards for Federal employees, involved the unauthorized dissemination of classified information, or contrary to the purposes and policies identified in Executive Order 14149 of January 20, 2025 (Restoring Freedom of Speech and Ending Federal Censorship)."

While Trump painted Krebs as a censorious hack potentially guilty of misonduct, he told reporters in the Oval Office Thursday that Taylor might be "guilty of treason" — a potential death-penalty offense.

Taylor served in the Trump DHS from 2017 to 2019. During that time, the former DHS chief of staff worked to undermine the democratically elected president and to "thwart parts of his agenda." Taylor admitted doing so in an anonymous piece in the New York Times titled "I Am Part of the Resistance Inside the Trump Administration."

In the article, Taylor suggested that he and others undermining the administration from within were the "steady state" and were committed to "steer[ing] the administration in the right direction until — one way or another — it's over."

After leaving the Trump administration, Taylor penned a book — again hiding behind the cloak of anonymity — attacking Trump. At the time, the Trump White House called the book, which is replete with disputed claims, "a work of fiction" written by a "coward."

Prior to the 2020 election, Taylor finally revealed his identity, then endorsed Joe Biden for president.

"I barely remember him. Somebody that went out and wrote a book and said all sorts of terrible things that were all lies," Trump told reporters Wednesday.

'Taylor abandoned his sacred oath.'

"He wrote a book, '[A Warning:] Anonymous,' and I always thought it was terrible," said Trump. "Now we have a chance to find out whether or not it was terrible. But it was a work of fiction."

"I think we have to do something about it," Trump added. "If that happens to other presidents, it wouldn't be sustainable for other presidents. I seem to be able to sustain, but if that happened to other presidents, it's just unfair."

— (@)

In his executive order, Trump noted, "Miles Taylor was entrusted with the solemn responsibility of Federal service, but instead prioritized his own ambition, personal notoriety, and monetary gain over fidelity to his constitutional oath."

"He illegally published classified conversations to sell his book under the pseudonym 'Anonymous,' which is full of falsehoods and fabricated stories," continued Trump. "In so doing, Taylor abandoned his sacred oath and commitment to public service by disclosing sensitive information obtained through unauthorized methods and betrayed the confidence of those with whom he served."

Trump noted further that the improper disclosure of sensitive information for the "purposes of personal enrichment and undermining our foreign policy, national security, and Government effectiveness" could "properly be characterized as treasonous and as possibly violating the Espionage Act."

Taylor tweeted Wednesday, "Dissent isn't unlawful. It certainly isn't treasonous. America is headed down a dark path."

WATCH: Democrats' Town Halls Disrupted by Enraged Left-Wing Voters

Democrats held a flurry of town halls this week, expecting their voters to rally around them in protest of the Republican agenda. But the move backfired: They faced fiery backlash from liberal constituents who accused the lawmakers of lacking a backbone.

‘That Should Not Happen’: Kayleigh McEnany Drops Receipts After Dem Panelist Complains About Gov’t Layoffs

'That is undermining the will of the American people'

Trump fires Democratic FEC commissioner who repeatedly attacked him. Now she's refusing to leave.



Ellen Weintraub, a Democratic commissioner and chair on the Federal Election Commission, revealed Thursday night that President Donald Trump fired her last week. Weintraub, an outspoken Trump critic whose political bias and routine disparagement of Trump have long sparked controversy, suggested she won't leave her post.

Weintraub, who has served on the nation's civil campaign finance regulator since 2002 and previously worked at the Democratic-aligned firm Perkins Coie, shared an image of a Jan. 31 letter she claimed was from Trump, which stated, "You are hereby removed as a Member of the Federal Election Commission, effective immediately. Thank you for your service on the Commission."

Weintraub noted, "Received a letter from POTUS today purporting to remove me as Commissioner & Chair of FEC. There's a legal way to replace FEC commissioners — this isn't it."

Weintraub's six-year term — a term limit established by the Federal Election Campaign Act — expired nearly two decades ago, back when George W. Bush was still president. However, commissioners can continue in a holdover status. Evidently, the Democratic commissioner from New York wants to keep holding on.

"I've been lucky to serve the American people & stir up some good trouble along the way," continued the Democratic commissioner, who previously accused Trump of damaging American democracy and questioned the legitimacy of the Electoral College. "That's not changing anytime soon."

'Weintraub's statements indicate that she has prematurely judged matters that could come before the FEC, and that she radically rejects any legal perspective other than her own.'

It appears that in order to can a commissioner, the president must first nominate a replacement, then have him confirmed by the U.S. Senate. Accordingly, Weintraub can continue to haunt the commission until her replacement is named and approved.

Former Republican FEC commissioner Caroline Hunter noted in a 2019 op-ed that Weintraub's partisan hackery was "harming the legitimacy of the institution she purports to serve."

"Commissioners are meant to be independent and neutral arbiters of campaign finance law. Yet Weintraub's statements indicate that she has prematurely judged matters that could come before the FEC, and that she radically rejects any legal perspective other than her own," continued Hunter. "Not only that, she risks misleading the public about what the FEC does and what campaign finance law really says."

Rep. Bennie Thompson (D-Miss.), the Biden-pardoned chairman of the Jan. 6 committee, was among the Democrats who had a conniption upon learning that Trump was kicking Weintraub to the curb.

Thompson stated, "Donald Trump is methodically dismantling our democracy. He is firing every person with experience, expertise, character, and commitment to the Constitution in order to replace them with mindless yes-men who will give Donald Trump and Elon Musk carte blanche to break the law and rip off the American people."

The New York Times indicated that the White House had not responded to requests for comment.

WATCH: Highlights from the Jim Acosta Show (Vol. 2)

Jim Acosta, the obnoxious "reporter" who recently quit his job at CNN, continues to thrive on Substack as host and sole proprietor of the Jim Acosta Show. This week, the #Resistance journalist was extremely proud of himself for coining a new catchphrase: "What the Musk?" For the less sophisticated, it's a nifty play on the phrase "What the f—?" that replaces the profanity with "Musk," which happens to be the surname of Elon Musk, the African-born entrepreneur and government efficiency czar that has aggravated liberals who adore bureaucrats and the status quo. Watch our video to find out how many times he said those magic words this week over the course of two excruciating episodes.

The Resistance Has a Brief Resurgence and Acosta Yells Into Substack Void

Before Wednesday, the Trump administration had "swiftly and smoothly" issued scores of executive orders that "left the Resistance in shock and Democrats stunned," writes Free Beacon founding editor Matthew Continetti. Then, Trump's win streak ran out. Under scrutiny from Democrats and their journalistic and judicial allies, Trump's Office of Management and Budget rescinded a memo that directed federal agencies to stop spending money until grant programs could be moved in alignment with the Don's agenda.

The lawman returns as Tom Homan takes the border by storm



There’s something quintessentially American about a lawman.

He is the ever-present hero in our mythology, a figure buried deep in our national psyche — like the Pledge of Allegiance or apple pie.

Western civilization values the rule of law as sacrosanct and promises order over chaos. This is what the lawman protects.

He volunteers to wear the badge. That shining metal beacon pinned over his heart symbolizes a sworn oath. It is the mark of the covenant he made with the American people to protect them at all costs.

Tom Homan is a lawman. And that’s exactly why we need him.

John Wayne redux

Reminiscent of a John Wayne character hell-bent on justice, Homan sees the world in black and white, right and wrong, legal and illegal.

I cheered when Donald Trump named Homan the next border czar. Formerly the acting head of Immigration and Customs Enforcement in Trump’s first administration, Homan was a police officer and a Border Patrol agent. He’s worked under six presidents over a 30-year career and was the executive associate director of Enforcement and Removal Operations for ICE under President Obama, where he oversaw a record number of deportations.

Homan gets emotional about hunting down criminals. This is because he’s the one who finds the bodies of women and children who died at the hands of illegal immigrants. Just recently, he had to hear graphic details from a 9-year-old who was raped by one.

He’s passionate because he cares about American lives.

Homan states that if we don’t have a historic level of mass deportation, “we’re sending out messages to the entire world: You can cross the border legally, which is a crime …”

In a recent interview with Charlie Kirk, Homan reminded us that every illegal alien is a criminal, illegal aliens aren’t vetted to enter the United States, and over 86% are not qualified as asylum-seekers. When Kirk asked Homan if he had seen the clip of MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow telling her viewers how to “think strategically” about fighting against things like deportation by promoting mass amnesty for illegal aliens with criminal records, preventing law enforcement from entering jails to deport convicted illegal aliens, and a host of other insane suggestions, Homan’s response was “No. But you’re pissing me off.”

The ‘kids in cages’ canard

The main criticism Homan faces revolves around his responsibility for the first Trump administration’s notorious “zero tolerance” policy. At least 5,500 illegal immigrant children were separated from their parents at the U.S.-Mexico border in 2018, with 1,401 children still without confirmed reunification.

But a lawman always has a reason.

Homan, in fact, was saving those “kids in cages” by keeping them safe. While there may be 1,401 children without ”confirmed reunification,” there are at least 320,000 migrant children who have gone missing under the Biden-Harris administration as a result of not following Homan’s example. The real number is likely higher.

According to a recently released Homeland Security Inspector General’s report, many of those children were released to “qualified sponsors” who, as it turns out, weren’t always qualified. Some of these sponsors have been listed at strip club addresses. Other children were given to convicted criminals with known MS-13 gang ties. Biden’s Department of Homeland Security even released a final management alert stating, “ICE cannot monitor all unaccompanied migrant children released from DHS and U.S. Department of Health and Human Services' custody.”

You don’t say. Maybe it would have been better if you had kept them, you know, in a secured building of some kind.

“Kids in cages” was a nice catchphrase for Democrats, but in the end, that’s all it was. The leftists were so obsessed with “optics” and not putting kids in safe holding facilities that they released them to potential sex traffickers, criminals, child labor exploiters, and pedophiles. They didn’t care about the migrant children any more than they cared about the Americans who have been killed.

Fighting for civilization

So criticize him all you want, but like a strict parent, Tom Homan knew where the migrant kids ICE encountered under his care were. The Biden-Harris administration cannot say the same.

But what of those who intend to fight Homan's execution of justice?

Denver Mayor Mike Johnston and other state and city officials have said they will not comply with Homan’s deportation efforts. Johnston said he is even willing to go to jail for it. Homan replied in kind. “Look, me and the Denver mayor, we agree on one thing,” Homan said. “He's willing to go to jail. I'm willing to put him in jail.”

The law doesn’t bend. Homan is here to remind them of that fact.

Being a lawman can come across as being harsh. But there’s a reason why Lady Justice holds a sword in her right hand. It symbolizes the power and authority to punish injustice.

That’s the part we often forget.

What good are laws or policies if they go unenforced or, worse, blatantly and unapologetically violated without just recourse? What value does being a good citizen hold if the bad ones go unpunished for their crimes? Why care about doing what is right when injustice has no consequence?

Western civilization has always been set apart because it’s, well, civilized. It values the just rule of law as sacrosanct and promises order over chaos. This is what the lawman protects.

The appointment of Homan as border czar is meaningful because it represents a return to safety and peace of mind. It is the first step in Making America Safe Again.

Elon Musk recently dubbed Homan our Judge Dredd, but when Homan speaks, I hear John Wayne’s voice as the straight-shooting U.S. Marshal J.D. Cahill when he offers a very simple solution to outlaws he’d caught who were complaining that their handcuffs were too tight: "You call the tune and you pay the piper. … You don't like the treatment? Don’t rob the banks.”

The Joy Is Back in Town: Trump Greeted as Liberator in Triumphant Return to White House

America's long national nightmare is almost over. President Joe Biden will leave office (and politics) forever at noon on Monday when Donald Trump is sworn in for a second term. The vibes are different this time. Trump is more popular than ever. The incumbent geezer is despised. What's left of the #Resistance is exhausted and exhausting. Fair-weather fans have fled in droves. The pussy marchers and the boycotters are decimated; corporations and celebrities no longer cowed into submission. One gets the sense that some of Trump's former opponents might be feeling a little embarrassed by their behavior over the past eight years, as they should be. There's hope for change again.
