Quotes for our Times:

Brandon Judd, president of the National Border Patrol Council (NBPC) which represents all rank-and-file Border Patrol agents nationwide: Biden got suckered into border battle he can’t win.

To agents, border security is not a political issue, it is literally a matter of life and death. We just witnessed that sad reality again in the recent murder of Georgia nursing student Laken Riley. Agents don’t care about party affiliation. Agents care about which person gives them the best shot at securing the border. In this case, based upon indisputable, historical facts, Trump is that person.

Regardless of his shrill, meaningless rhetoric, along with that of his clueless Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre, Biden has not done much of anything at all to secure the border. I personally discussed border security problems with his DHS secretary multiple times, only to be ignored in favor of their radical open border base.

Gregg Jarrett, Fox News legal analyst and commentator: Joe Biden 'the closer' in Hunter's corrupt schemes.

Regardless, as the presidential election approaches, the Bidens will continue their litany of lies in public by insisting that they did nothing wrong in banking more than $20 million from America’s adversaries, as documented by the House committees that examined a slew of banking transactions, wire transfers, and more than 150 Suspicious Activity Reports filed with the criminal division at the Department of Treasury.

Maybe the Bidens, in their twisted minds, think their self-enrichment schemes were justified.

And maybe that’s what Harvey Specter [TV series 'Suits,' the lead character Harvey Specter is known as 'the closer'] meant when he quipped, 'Sometimes, good guys gotta do bad things to make the bad guys pay.'

Mark Lewis, native Texan currently living in Thailand, has Master's degree in history and has taught history and English in America, South Korea, and China: What the democrats want to give America.

One former student wanted to take the Chinese civil service exam after she graduated from college. The government wouldn’t let her because her father—not her—was a member of a Christian prayer group.

I could tell you an endless number of stories like this. It’s not the Chinese people, it’s the godless, Leftist, totalitarian system they live under. The very system the Democratic Party is working overtime to bring to America.

Well, I’m warning people. It’s all I can do. It’s real, folks.

Lt. Col. Allen West (ret.), Executive Director of the American Constitutional Rights Union and ACRU Action Fund, a constitutional conservative, combat veteran, and former member of the U.S. Congress: You own nothing.

Our rights of life, liberty, and property are integral to our national character. Undermining them is a matter of great concern. To leftists who wish to make a farce of America, I say we defeat them, restore our Constitutional Republic, and protect our Life, Liberty, and Pursuit of Happiness (Property).

Steadfast and Loyal.
