Democrats Move to Block Proof-of-Citizenship Voting Laws

By M.D. Kittle | The Federalist Leftist Groups Flood the EAC with comments in an effort to kill a call for documentary proof of U.S. citizenship to vote in U.S. elections. Democrats in Congress have fought against every bill that would ensure only U.S. citizens vote in U.S. elections. They voted against the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) Act in the House, and they’ve chloroformed it in the Senate. They’ve sued to stop President Donald Trump’s executive order requiring documentary proof of citizenship when registering to vote. Why would Democrats and left-wing activists fight so hard and spend so much money trying to kill a basic election safeguard that the vast majority of Americans support?  They want noncit...

Justices to Rule on Whether Drug Use Voids the Right to Bear Arms

By Zach Schonfeld | FOX21 The Supreme Court on Monday agreed to take up whether a federal crime that bans gun possession for drug users is constitutional. At the Trump administration’s urging, the justices will wade into this issue this term, making it the latest front in the battle over the Second Amendment. A decision is expected by next summer.  “This is the archetypal case for this Court’s review,” Solicitor General D. John Sauer wrote in court filings.  Federal law prohibits anyone “who is an unlawful user of or addicted to any controlled substance” from possessing a firearm. Violations carry up to 10 years in prison.   The charge is prosecuted regularly. U.S. Circuit Judge Stephen Higginson, an appointee of former President Obama, recently noted in ...

President Donald Trump declared Antifa a terrorist organization on Wednesday, describing them as a “sick, dangerous, radical left disaster;” however, it’s unclear at this time if or how the president will make the designation official, and what it all means for the group. The Anti-Defamation League, a group that fights “all forms of antisemitism and bias,” defines Antifa as a “decentralized, leaderless movement composed of loose collections of groups, networks and individuals."

Police in Sanctuary City Defy Mayor Join ICE to Enforce Law

By Jack Davis | The Western Journal Many Boston police officers are defying Democratic Mayor Michelle Wu’s stance against Immigration and Customs Enforcement by secretly assisting federal authorities with critical intel. Acting Immigration and Customs Enforcement Director Todd Lyons told radio host Howie Carr about this crucial cooperation on Wednesday. “We have so many men and women of the Boston Police Department and other jurisdictions that are so pro-ICE, that want to work with us, and that are actually helping us behind the scenes,” he said. Lyons promised to target similar sanctuary cities with federal agents in order to get America’s immigration crisis under control. “We’re definitely going to, as you’ve heard the saying, f...

Spakovsky: DOJ is wrong, federal law doesn’t prevent states from removing aliens from voter rolls

By Hans von Spakovsky , Commentary | Daily Signal The Biden-Harris Justice Department is wrong in claiming that federal law bars Virginia and other states from removing aliens from their voter rolls. And if the law DOJ cites is misinterpreted by a court to agree with the agency’s erroneous claim, then the law likely would be unconstitutional. The Justice Department sued Virginia after it removed. The names of 6,303 aliens and Alabama after it moved 3,251 aliens to an “inactive” list. Keep in mind that it’s a felony under several federal statutes for an alien to claim fraudulently to be a citizen so he or she may register to vote or vote in U.S. elections, including 18 U.S.C. §§ 611, 911, and 1015(f). The Justice Department has a duty to enforce&...
