December 11, 2025 Jenny Beth Martin

The State Department is finally undergoing the course correction it has long needed. According to recent reporting from FOX News, Secretary of State Marco Rubio has reinstated and promoted a number of career Foreign Service officers who were denied advancement under the Biden administration’s expansive diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) regime.

MacDonald: Requiring a Visa Security Deposit is a Great Idea

August 9, 2025 Steve MacDonald

Meetings in the Trump White House are likely remarkably different from those of Democrats. While the left schemes to secure more power and protect itself from those who might object, Team Trump is making lists of things that will trigger lefties. I don’t know, that’s how I picture it, and how hard can it be? … Read more

November 8, 2019 Steve MacDonald

The impeachment circus, like the collusion and obstruction events before it, serves but one purpose. Hide what Democrats did. But absent a complete communications lockdown by the corporate propagandists, inconvenient truths find the light of day.

If We’re Not Exceptional Why Do People in 35 Countries Want to Kidnap Us?

April 10, 2019 Steve MacDonald

America is the Greatest. If you didn’t say that using the voice of Mohammed Ali, do it again, I’ll wait. We’ve freed more people from more places from poverty or just a lack of exceptionalism than any nation in history. So, is that why 35 other countries want to kidnap us?

If The Attack on The US Embassy Wasn’t Pre-planned…

September 26, 2018September 16, 2012 Steve MacDonald

...then why scrub the memo issued by the US department of State, dated September 6th, announcing no credible security threats to our embassies on the anniversary of 9-11? That’s right, a blogger caught the change and posted it.

The US State department issues a memo to its embassies indicating there are no credible threats for the anniversary of 9/11. There are no marines stationed in Benghazi to protect the ambassador. The administration is insiting the attack was some random act of outrage over some obscure six months old you Tube video.

But the Libyan President says he has no doubt the attack was planned months in advance (also here). Al Qaeda is now claiming it was a planned retribution. A Local security official in Libya says he warned the US of the deteriorating security situation 3 days before the attack. Attackers worked in concert, with heavy weapons, knew where to be and where to go. The Serbian consulate wants to know why the Obama administration posted a Gay ambassador in a Muslim country. And now the original State Department memo no longer includes any mention of there being no credible threats, that Al Qaeda was not “plotting any kind of attack overseas” on the anniversary of 9-11.
