Listen up, patriots. The gun-grabbing globalists have been shoving Australia’s so-called success story down our throats for decades, crowing about how their 1996 ban on semi-automatic rifles and shotguns turned the land down under into a pacifist paradise. No more mass shootings, they yapped, after the Port Arthur horror that claimed 35 lives. Fast-forward nearly […]

Brooke Rollins, the bulldog at the helm of the USDA, is done playing nice with the welfare wasteland that’s SNAP. She’s blasting the program for hemorrhaging billions in taxpayer dollars to deadbeats, double-dippers, and outright crooks, and she’s got the numbers to back it up.

Minnesota’s Governor Tim Walz, that squishy socialist who couldn’t secure a border if it was his own backyard, is at it again.
