MOFFETT: Concerning American Liberators, Trump, and Maduro

January 6, 2026 Michael Moffett

Many of us grew up watching World War II newsreels of heroic Americans vanquishing evil villains and liberating the oppressed. Powerful imagery abounded of ecstatic citizens of Paris or Rome showering our G.I.s with flowers, hugs, kisses, wine, and more. And it wasn’t just the great cities. Countless European towns, villages, and hamlets welcomed their … Read more

CARDELLO: Hell Has Actually Frozen Over

January 15, 2026January 6, 2026 Ray Cardello

Never in my lifetime did I ever think that Debbie Wasserman Schultz (D-FL) and I would be on the same ideological side of any issue. When I saw headlines over the weekend that Schultz was praising the Trump action to remove and arrest Nicolas Maduro from Venezuela and relieve the people of Venezuela of decades … Read more

CARDELLO: Is There No Low to the Bottom Feeders the Left Will Support

January 4, 2026 Ray Cardello

If Donald Trump identifies them as detrimental to America, you can almost guarantee that the Left will be out in force supporting them. Rapists, child molesters, murderers who violate our border are entitled to due process when they should be quickly deported. Somali thieves who scammed Americans out of billions of dollars to fund lavish … Read more

LIVE STREAM: Trump on Venezuela Operation

January 3, 2026January 3, 2026 Steve MacDonald

Overnight, the US military escorted Federal law enforcement into Caracas, Venezuela, to arrest Nicolás Maduro. By all accounts, the effort (mission) was flawless. As to the constitutionality, there will be questions. Maduro has had an arrest warrant out for years, so using the military to protect law enforcement, to collect him, in a foreign nation, … Read more

PAGE: Patriots of the Caribbean

December 24, 2025 Guy Page

A provocative proposal out of Washington recently — one that sounds like it belongs in a history book, or maybe a pirate movie—but it’s very real. U.S. Senator Mike Lee of Utah has introduced legislation that would revive a long-dormant constitutional power: letters of marque and reprisal. In plain terms, the bill would allow the President of … Read more

MACDONALD: Dems Panty Twist Over Double-Tap

December 7, 2025December 7, 2025 Steve MacDonald

Democrats in Congress are still desperate for a win. Any win. Something that will make their base happy. Wait, you mean they aren’t actually using their legislative and oversight powers for good? No chance of that. They need to make sure the rank-and-file proglodytes fill out (and send) all of their mail-in ballots or goose-step … Read more

Ron Paul: Congressional Republicans Must Stand Up to the President on Venezuela!

November 13, 2025 Ron Paul

I recall when then-President Barack Obama was planning to send troops to enforce his “Assad must go” policy in Syria, many Republican US Senators passionately argued that the US President must come to Congress for approval before sending US troops into combat overseas. At the time, they portrayed themselves as brave defenders of the US … Read more

MACDONALD: If Mexico Doesn’t Want to Get Venezuela’d…

October 22, 2025 Steve MacDonald

Trump’s DOJ has been coming at the swamp sideways, which has a lot of people anxious on both sides. Bolton for classified doc charges (he’s toast). Letitia James for mortgage fraud (she’s in trouble, too), James Comey for Perjury (he lied to Congress a lot, so he’s going down), Shifty Schiff is lined up and … Read more

America Is a Lot More like Venezuela than You Thought

September 28, 2022September 28, 2022 Steve MacDonald

In true Marxist fashion, the People’s Republic of Venezuela (dba: Venezuela) has a food security problem. The connected political elite are eating like kings while the poor (everyone else) starve. The “cure” for this ailment may sound familiar.

Biden Thinks We Might need More Oil so He’s Looking to Russia, Iran, and Venezuela

March 8, 2022 Steve MacDonald

Before Joe Biden stumbled into the Oval Office, the United States was the global leader in oil production. We weren’t dependent on anyone, sorry – that’s not entirely true.

November 2, 2020 Steve MacDonald

Voters in New Hampshire’s Second Congressional District have heard or seen a lot from the mouth of Ann Kuster and Democrats. But before you vote tomorrow ask yourself, why did Democrat Ann Kuster vote to give our enemies billions of dollars?

WHEN COMMUNISTS GET DESPERATE ENOUGH TO TRY CAPITALISM: Socialist Venezuela Proposes To Privatize Its Collapsing Oil Industry. I’m not sure why this lesson is never learned.

January 21, 2020 Steve MacDonald

President Nicolás Maduro has made an announcement. He is prepared for direct negotiations to repair relations between the US and Venezuela. If Trump lifts sanctions, he will open his oil reserves to US companies. No offense, but we don’t need your stinking oil.

Bringing Socialism to New Hampshire and America

January 30, 2026October 8, 2019 Le Pew

Imagine empty supermarket shelves. Starving children and families. Filthy hospitals without basics; things like aspirin or toilet paper. Pretty ugly right. These are the brutal realities of socialism in Venezuela. Socialist regimes in places like Venezuela, Cuba, and Argentina have brought similar results to their people. In Cuba, 3,856 buildings collapsed over a 13-year period. … Read more

Venezuelans were disarmed in 2012.

May 3, 2019 Skip

It is clear that the Socialist Government of Venezuela has been tyrannical (as well as slipshod, cronyistic, and can’t manage a lemonade stand, but that’s Socialism in a nut shell). Now we see it truly is. The Chavez / Maduro regimes disarmed their population years ago. The Progressive Democrats are trying to do so now … Read more
