Democrats told us Biden was razor sharp. Wait till America gets the Kamala Harris spin
Here we go again. For years, Democrats and the lefty media insisted that Joe Biden’s faculties are razor sharp and that conservatives have been manipulating public opinion, most recently with their fabulous lies about “cheap fakes.” Kamala Harris is about to get the same treatment. President Biden stands naked and defeated, alas it turned out...

Our family reunion showed how we can unite America
I spent this past weekend in the Smoky Mountains attending a DeBartolo cousins family reunion in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee. We had a great time reconnecting and reminiscing. Love and laughter filled the house. President Trump’s assassination attempt took place during the reunion. It contrasted the unity we were experiencing and the division our country is...
