The ACLU – an organization usually fighting against what most of us consider traditional morals – says it is taking a stand for our country’s “moral commitment” and promises to “sue swiftly” over the new asylum rules.

Finally. The U.S. House of Representatives, after months of denying there is any crisis on the southern border, has finally taken the first step toward addressing the crisis they now begrudgingly admit is occurring. Granted, this first step is far from comprehensive—in fact, it is exclusively...

It’s beyond offensive. A sitting member of Congress just ignorantly and irresponsibly appeared on social media and compared the United States to Nazi Germany. On today’s broadcast, we discussed Rep. Alexandra Ocasio-Cortez (AOC) taking to Facebook to say the detention centers at our southern border...
