Is America’s greatest existential enemy, the genocidal Chinese Communist Party (CCP), exploiting Biden’s open borders to send agents or soldiers into the U.S.? Numbers of illegal aliens pouring into America to receive taxpayer-funded freebies continue to climb, but one nationality is particularly showing a stunning leap in migrant numbers. Fox News’ Bill Melugin tweeted on April 2nd... Border Patrol arrests of Chinese nationals who crossed the U.S. border illegally over recent years. Fiscal Year 2021: 342
Fiscal Year 2022: 1,987
Fiscal Year 2023: 24,125
Fiscal Year 2024: 22,233 (so far) 6,300% + increase since FY’21. |

NOTABLE QUOTES |
William Upton contributor to National Pulse: At President Joe Biden‘s fancy fundraiser in New York City, guests were made to present a valid form of photo ID to enter. Instructions received by guests note the name on their ID must match the name printed on their ticket. The identification and name-match requirements contrast with the Democrat Party’s opposition to similar requirements in U.S. elections.
Hans von Spakovsky and J. Adams contributors to The heritage Foundation: You will not believe what “reformers” have devised to tinker with and manipulate our elections. It is called ranked choice voting (or “instant runoff voting”)—but it is really a scheme to disconnect elections from issues and allow candidates with marginal support from voters to win elections. In the end, it is all about political power, not about what is best for the American people and for preserving our great republic. So-called reformers want to change process rules so they can manipulate election outcomes to obtain power.
Scott Johnson contributor to Powerlineblog.com: . . . administrative law establishes a regime of the kind the United States Constitution was carefully designed to prevent. By his reckoning, we have returned to “the pre-constitutional world” of the inglorious reign of James I: Royal edicts are in style, the Star Chamber is in session, and the king is working the outer limits of absolute royal power.
Randall L. Kennedy, contributor to The Harvard Crimson: It would be hard to overstate the degree to which many academics at Harvard and beyond feel intense and growing resentment against the DEI enterprise because of features that are perhaps most evident in the demand for DEI statements. I am a scholar on the left committed to struggles for social justice. The realities surrounding mandatory DEI statements, however, make me wince. The practice of demanding them ought to be abandoned, both at Harvard and beyond. |

His choice for running mate answers many a question.In the full year since he first emerged onto the national stage as the biggest political wildcard since Ross Perot, it was first assumed that Robert F Kennedy Jr. was likely to draw votes away from Joe Biden in the Democratic primary and weaken the incumbent for the fall campaign. But after RFK Jr. switched from Democrat to independent, the contours of the race changed, based on the notion that he might draw votes from both major party candidates in November, perhaps in equal measure. Then came the late March announcement of Kennedy’s running mate – and suddenly, everything changed again. |
