There is a crisis of trust in key institutions. The scourge of antisemitism is spreading. Foreign adversaries are laughing at us, and the media and our leaders are lying to us. Reversing all of this in the years ahead will be a monumental task. Of course, there is good news, too. And there will be many opportunities to advance our pro-life, pro-family, America First values. We need to be ready to meet these challenges and take full advantage of every opportunity. To do that, we need to be fully funded. But our year-end fundraising efforts are running behind last year’s, and we have just 12 days left to meet our $500,000 goal. If you haven’t yet supported our work, please step up now!

Thank you, and God bless you! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Biden’s Biggest Scandal Being president of the United States is not an easy job. It is a very difficult job, and we all knew Joe Biden wasn’t up to it. Now reports from the New York Times, the Wall Street Journal, and others show that the situation was much worse than we thought. The Journal points out that during the 2020 primaries, Jill Biden actually campaigned more in Iowa than Joe did. Here’s another jarring fact: Biden has only held nine cabinet meetings in four years. They were afraid to let the cabinet secretaries see Biden’s decline. Donald Trump held 25 cabinet meetings during his first four years. I won’t waste your time repeating all the details from these reports. The extent of his decline was obvious to most people. So much so that Democrat Party leaders forced him to surrender the presidential nomination he won in an unprecedented coup. This is the biggest lie/scandal in modern American political history! For four years, Joe Biden was not the president. His power was usurped by people we don’t know, did not elect, and who are not in the line of presidential succession. Serious political figures were in on this: Barack Obama, Kamala Harris, Chuck Schumer, and Nancy Pelosi. They all knew, and they continually lied for four years. Who actually made the decision to push us to the brink of nuclear war with Russia over Ukraine? Who did that? It’s not only that Congress did not vote to go to war with Russia, it appears the president wasn’t capable of making such decisions. We’re told Biden had good days and bad days. But isn’t it amazing how good he was on those good days? His last State of the Union address. His big speech in front of Constitution Hall. In both cases, he was able to deliver an effective speech full of lies. We’re back to the question that’s been asked off and on for four years: What were the drugs Biden was given on the bad days when he had something big to do? Whatever they were giving him, they couldn’t do it every day, or they would have. So, the president of the United States most assuredly was administered powerful unknown drugs during his presidency to prop him up in order to deceive the American people into thinking everything was normal. Does anyone want to revisit the theme “threat to democracy”? More Lies For at least a year, the White House press briefings and Pentagon press briefings have been telling us that there were only 900 U.S. troops in Syria for a strategic purpose, and we had no intentions of getting deeply involved. Well, that was a lie. Yesterday, Brigadier General Pat Ryder, the Pentagon press secretary, stunned reporters when he said we have 2,000 U.S. troops in Syria. Ryder was asked when he learned the truth and replied that he had just found out that day. Asked how long we have had 2,000 troops in Syria, he couldn’t give a precise time frame but said, “I think it would probably be fair to say at a minimum, months.” So, the White House didn’t know? The key spokesman at the Pentagon didn’t know? And all during the time they were telling us the figure was 900, no one at the White House said, “We need to correct that.” It is disgusting and outrageous how lying has become the left’s regular method of dealing with the American people! Media Malfeasance The effort to pass a better stopgap spending bill last night to keep the government open and provide desperately needed emergency aid to hurricane victims and farmers failed. Everyone is focused on and irritated with the 38 Republicans who voted against it. But if all 38 did what Donald Trump wanted and voted for the bill, it still would have failed. Why? Because it needed a two-thirds majority -- 290 votes -- to pass. Only two Democrats supported the bill. But all 219 Republicans plus two Democrats only gives you 221 votes – 69 short of 290. In other words, 197 House Democrats voted to shut down the government. They voted against disaster relief for hurricane victims and against aid to farmers. Virtually the entire House Democrat caucus (99%) voted “No,” and the lying fake news media says, “Republicans killed it!” Beijing & DC Communist China is now making fun of the American people and mocking us for being concerned about unknown drones flying over our cities and military bases. An official mouthpiece for the Chinese Communist Party said America is a “breeding ground for delusion.” Well, the Biden administration and top national security officials are essentially saying the same thing. “Everything is fine.” “There’s no threat.” “Stop looking at the sky.” You know we’re in trouble when Beijing’s Marxists and Washington’s neo-Marxists have the same disdain for the American people. Taxpayers vs. Planned Parenthood The Supreme Court announced this week that it will take a case challenging whether South Carolina and other states can block Medicaid funds (taxpayer dollars) to pro-abortion groups like Planned Parenthood. I’m glad the court is taking the case. Our friends at the Alliance Defending Freedom are representing South Carolina. I am hopeful we will see yet another “gift” from Donald Trump promoting the sanctity of life because it will be his three Supreme Court appointments who will make the difference in the case. Terror University Something disturbing is going on at George Mason University (GMU) in northern Virginia. The university is not far from where I live and not far from the White House. A GMU student was just arrested for plotting an attack on the Israeli consulate in New York City. The wannabe jihadi has been identified as Abdullah Ezzeldin Taha Mohamed Hassan, an Egyptian citizen. Here’s an idea for the Trump/Vance administration: Launch a major review of the foreign students at our universities participating in antisemitic, anti-Israel activities. Any time there are violent demonstrations and students are arrested, there should be an immediate visa check to determine if they are here on a foreign student visa. If they are, kick them out! Change the law, if necessary. We must be absolutely clear about this: Any foreign student given a visa to come to America who engages in anti-American activities or activities that undermine our allies will be sent home. We are under no obligation to import hate into our country. Defending Faith, Family, & Freedom In my latest Defending Faith, Family, and Freedom podcast for the James Dobson Family Institute, I explain the strong connection between the birth of Christ and the birth of America. Listen to the podcast here. Other Headlines Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., President-elect Trump’s nominee to lead the Department of Health and Human Services, has committed to restoring the pro-life policies of the first Trump administration. The Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals struck down an attempt by the Biden/Harris administration to impose DEI policies and quotas on major companies. American Airlines joins the growing list of companies dumping divisive DEI policies. Teachers in Virginia won a lawsuit against the Harrison City Public School Board. The board mandated the use of so-called “preferred pronouns,” forcing teachers to lie about reality and to lie to parents. A Nativity scene was displayed at the U.S. Capitol Building for the first time ever. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~  Don’t Forget, Friends: We have 12 days to reach our budget goals.
