CARDELLO: We Are at a Tipping Point

This is not a drill. This is not a bump in the road like Sandy Cortez winning in New York, Ilhan Omar winning in Little Somalia, Minnesota, or Pramila Jayapal winning in Far-Left Seattle.

MACDONALD: Lord, Help Us, We Need Congress To Act

The Birthright citizenship case was a bust. Roberts and Barrett couldn’t find a reason to support Trump’s EO, and while I don’t choose to agree with them, I’ll admit there’s plenty of room for interpretation that allows for their opinions. Read both sides before you snap a gasket. There is as much gray space for … Read more

Morning Update: “You’re Fired!”

It’s been an interesting week for decisions from the US Supreme Court. Not anywhere near as bad as some allege, nor as good as the left would have their grubby followers believe.

Morning Update: Sacred Ground

School Board Clerk Chauntyll Allen is in the news again (previously indicted for a church raid in St. Paul).
