President Joe Biden was unable to overcome the judicial and legislative roadblocks to his full set of COVID-19 vaccine mandates two years ago, but the damage of that policy lingers.

Is President Joe Biden trying to get us killed? His Nagasaki-like destruction of the southern “border” is like a mating call that lures terrorists to have their way with us.

President Joe Biden showed leadership and courage last week by flying into an active war zone to personify solidarity with America’s embattled friends and allies in Israel.
