There is no treaty with Ukraine that obligates the US to attack Russia.

Congress declares war, not the President.

This week’s assigned reading is the Constitution.

Class dismissed.

President Joe Biden has assumed extra and unconstitutional powers with his vaccine mandates.

Hopefully the Constitution will eventually prevail.

“This is the most excessive abuse of presidential federal overreach since April 5th, 1952, which was the moment when Harry Truman seized every steel mill in America in order to support the Korean War effort.

It took a couple of months, but the Supreme Court knocked that down and said the president doesn’t have that power.

I believe that what President Biden is doing now is comparable to that, and in some ways even worse than that.”

Is Biden avoiding telling the truth about the disaster in Afghanistan?

Another day, another chance for this administration to avoid telling the truth to the American people about the disaster in #Afghanistan.

This is life-or-death and the president’s been in Delaware for the weekend. This has to end.

While leaving Afghanistan was the right thing to do, how we did it mattered and President Biden seemed intent on doing it in the least responsible way. He seemed to want to withdraw according to his timeline and not his predecessor’s, however unwise that could turn out.

Former President Donald Trump set a May 1 deadline that Biden ignored. Trump warned Biden that deviating from the deal he negotiated could be disastrous.

We know how that turned out.

Education Secretary Cardona and President Biden should be ashamed for threatening states with mask bans

Secretary Cardona and President Biden should be ashamed. Using @usedgov as a weapon against states, like Utah, that have had some of the best education results during the pandemic is as wrong as it is low. https://t.co/VQnwVrSKIK

Salt Lake City’s Fox 13 reports, “The U.S. Department of Education is warning Utah it could face a federal investigation for laws the legislature passed severely restricting masks in schools.”

U.S. Education Secretary Miguel Cardona wrote, “Utah’s actions to block school districts from voluntarily adopting science-based strategies for preventing the spread of COVID-19 that are aligned with the guidance from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) puts these goals at risk and may infringe upon a school district’s authority to adopt policies to protect students and educators as they develop their safe return to in-person instruction plans required by Federal law.”

Cardona also warned that other states “that have imposed mask bans could face civil rights investigations, arguing that they could discriminate against students and educators.” Some of those states include Texas, Arizona, Iowa, Oklahoma, South Carolina and Tennessee.

“Possible sanctions for any violation could include pulling millions in federal funds from the state,” Fox 13 notes.
