Biden's 64 executive orders that thwart and weaken duly adopted US immigration laws are the source of our border problems. Grants to the UN and NGOs, some connected to liberal churchs like the United Methodists and United Church of Christ, help fund the invasion of the United States. These activities designed to undermine our immigration laws should be criminally investigated by a special grand jury and special prosecutor and the miscreants indicted and jailed. UN officials without diplomatic immunity should be among those indicted, and if they have diplomtatic immunity they should be declared persona non grata and kicked out of the US.

PUtin and Biden are two peas in an authoritarian pod. Both try to jail political opponents and / or kick them off the ballot. No wonder Putin prefers Biden. Plus, a little cash in Hunter's pocket and Biden will do what he wants. I wonder how much Putin just paid for Biden to cut off US LNG supplies to Europe?

Normally, I do not believe in boycotts, will not support boycotts, because, and this is my "better angels" speaking, that is what the Democratic Socialists do; they control center of powers and then they persecute ad nauseum.

They have long done it in the courts (but, especially the corrupt New York judicial and courts system, or any like their corrupt paradigm); they have long done it in their advocacy within their non journalistic corporate media; now they are using their resources in banking to influence corporations to do the same, to forever transition this Constitutional Republic to a Fascist state of Elites and Serfs.

When it was just the Democratic Socialists in charge of this totally corrupt behavior, it was nearly bearable, but now the radical wing of the Democratic Socialist party - the Non Patriot Left - have pushed these sleaze bums to a whole new level of exponential corruption, and I am ready to publicly declare: Enough is enough, and the time to act is NOW!

Yes, do whatever it takes to cut the most corrupt centers of this Republic from goods, possibly services as well (remembering that we in the middle actually know how to do stuff), especially if they emphatically believe that they, by their understood corruption, can control the rest of US, and functionally deter we, the patriots, from working within the functional fabric of the US Constitution in our ongoing efforts to save this faltering Republic from groups, like this Non Patriot Left, who endeavor to damage and destroy all that is real, as we now know it.

Good to know. Only 45 mass shootings in 48 days. We are on a roll!

That writer from the Federalist, a national publication, did not follow this all the way through to when Mark Robinson walked back all of his comments on bathroom privacy, reportedly because RINO kingpin Phil Berger told him to do so. Berger has political operatives inserted in Robinson's campaign and Robinson seems to take orders from them and Berger, like when Robinson endorsed Berger's slate of pro-Berger candidates in state senate primaries. We should remember that it was Phil Berger and Tim Moore who led the effort that repealed NC's bathroom privacy laws in the first place. Mark Robinson needs to escape from Phil Berger's liberal plantation if he ever wants to have ANY credibility with conservatives again.

I have never seen anyone post a "far right" link on this site. The far left likes to call anything to the right of Biden or at least Romney "far right". They don't acknowledge that conservatives exist, and want to lump everyone together as "far right". That is pure BS. At the same time, they will not acknowledge that a "far left" even exists, even though it is the left that is now galloping to new extremes, trying to "normalize" things that not many years ago everyone would have called nutty and extreme.

you do the same with the far right links. Maybe the truth is somewhere in the middle? I’m willing to acknowledge it. Are you?

Many of us thought that Robinson was going to develop into a great hope for the people. Then he got a little taste of power and money, and he received that Raleigh inoculation. Now he is falling right in line to "Go along to get along". Makes me unhappy but sometimes we have to face reality and make necessary adjustments. It looks like Folwell will be our better choice.

The problem with Mark Robinson's comments was lack of verbal discipline. Defending women's bathrooms and locker rooms from biological males using them is a good conservative issue, and most of Robinson's comments were valid but he went off the rails when he suggested that trannies just find a place to urinate outside. Advocating public urination is not the way to win this argument. When Robinson had to walk that part back, he ended up walking back all his comments on men in the ladies room.

Robinson's heart may be in the right place on many things, but he is ineffective. He has failed to use the bully pulpit of his office as Lieutenant Governor and his outstanding speaking ability to stand up in the legislature for much of anything in the way of supporting conservative legislation or opposing liberal legislation.

Robinson has one challenger on the left and another on the right. Bill Graham, a wealthy trial lawyer who has backed Greta Thunberg type policies and is endorsed by Thom Tillis is his challenger to the left, while conservative State Treasurer Dale Folwell, who has successfully used his office to advance conservative policy is his challenger on the right.

Dale Folwell has the principles and the skill set to advance the conservative agenda as governor, and it becomes more clear every day that Mark Robinson does not, at least as to the skill set. Bill Graham lacks the principles.

There are lots of valid reasons and arguments that can be made about keeping biological men out of womens bathrooms and locker rooms, but suggesting that these mixed up men just go pee outside somewhere just creates a red herring for the left to shoot at to deflect from serious arguments on the issue. That is how Mark Robinson's lack of verbal discipline harmed conservatives on defending womens bathroom privacy.

The only border legislation that will stop or even slow down the invasion of illegal aliens is HR2 which has passed the House and is being stonewalled in the Senate. The legislation is there and already halfway through Congress, but the Demcrats, both Schumer and Biden, do not want real border security legislation. Instead they want to faciliate the flow which is what the Lankford bill would have done. Clearly, the American peole are smart enough not to be fooled by the politically corrupt propagandists of the MSM media.

Phil Berger showed his true colors in not giving a hoot about gun rights when he killed Constitutional Carry last legislative session. 27 other states had already passed it. That Mark Robinson is now Berger's little puppy dog tells you all you need to know about Mark Robinson, another phony.

This election season, Berger gave Robinson a list of pro-Berger candidates to endorse in Senate primaries, and Robinson said "yes, bossman" and did it. One of those was Bob Brinson in our district. Mailings keep going out on Brinson's behalf saying he is "pro gun" but the simple fact is that after Berger has spent over a hundred thousand dollars trying to buy this district for his stooge Brinson, Brinson would just be another Berger puppet in Raleigh with Berger controlling how he votes. He would not be free to be pro gun if even he wanted to be. We can do better. We can elect a genuine pro-gun rights senator who owes Berger nothing, Mike Speciale.

I share your thoughts,John Steed.
I vision "we the people " as being not in the grasp of tyranny but in the JAWS of tyranny. One swallow away from us all becoming a P O S.
