Immigration: The general in charge of U.S. Southern Command says America’s porous southern border poses as much a threat as any foreign power, with gangs and terrorist groups hiding among the tidal wave of illegals.

“In comparison to other global threats, the near collapse of societies in the hemisphere with the associated drug and (undocumented immigrant) flow are frequently viewed to be of low importance,” Kelly told Defense One, a website focused on national security issues. “Many argue these threats are not existential and do not challenge our national security.

Freedom Is Just Another Word...

Even After Supreme Court Ruling, Dayton Still Going After Moms And Small Women-Owned Businesses.

The recent Harris v. Quinn decision by the United States Supreme Court held that private care providers who work for customers, but receive government subsidies, are not public employees and cannot be required to pay dues or fees to a union for “representation” under the First Amendment to the United States Constitution.
