Imams Demand Action

Thousands march in support of Hamas, Hezbollah and Iran. Protesters, many with kaffiyehs covering their faces, shout “Intifada, intifada,” “From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free,” and “America is a terrorist state.” Local imams give fiery antisemitic sermons. This isn’t the Middle East. It’s the Detroit suburb of Dearborn, Mich. [More]

Rigorous!

I remember taking a field trip to Dearborn in eighth grade to visit the Henry Ford Museum and Edison’s laboratory– the epitome of American uniqueness, ingenuity and greatness, in the days before “vibrancy” and cultural surrender.

Empty Threat?

President Trump Calls on ‘All Willing States’ to Deploy Their National Guards to Texas to Defend U.S-Mexico Border as Red State Alliance Grows to 25 [More]

While the rest of his statement plays well with MAGA voters, calling for that and not having checked to see if anyone would do it seems like more of the same impulsiveness that is one of his most vulnerable flaws, and can’t serve well in his current legal cases.

Agents ‘Absolutely’ Don’t Want To Cut Greg Abbott’s Razor Wire, Border Patrol Union President Says [More]

I’m sure there were Germans who didn’t want to round up Holocaust victims and guard camps.

So… how many of these reluctant agents will just follow orders and abet treason, anyway?

You Can Tell It’s Vattel, It’s Swell!

As long as we’re quoting Vattel:

It is an accepted maxim of international law that every sovereign nation has the power, as inherent in sovereignty and essential to self-preservation, to forbid the entrance of foreigners within its dominions or to admit them only in such cases and upon such conditions as it may see fit to prescribe. Vattel, lib. 2, §§ 94, 100; 1 Phillimore (3d ed.) c. 10, § 220.

Right, Alan…?
