Imagine the existence of a group involved in covertly formulating a plan on how to subvert the U.S. Constitution, distributing that plan among its leadership and agents within the U.S., quietly supporting terrorism to further this agenda, declaring war against America, and brazenly recognizing U.S. indifference by boasting about its terrorist activities.

President Obama’s “embraceable you” foreign policy outreach program towards nations unfriendly to the U.S. has been a disaster. If that was not clear earlier, developments in Syria during these past few weeks should make it abundantly clear.

British Islamist preacher Hamza Tzortzis has been in the spotlight numerous times for his outlandish preachings in defense of Islamic extremism.

While Senator Barbara Mikulski’s (D-MD) announcement she will support the Iranian nuclear deal seems to give President Obama the crucial 34thvote he needs to ensure its survival, all members of Congress may want to read the English-language excerpts available of Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei’s recently published book Palestine before casting their final vote.

Did you hear the one about President Obama claiming the U.S. can use military force against Iran if it breaks the terms of its nuclear deal?

Pressuring Congress as its September vote approaches, President Obama says it is pure folly to think a better nuclear agreement with Iran can be negotiated. He is absolutely right. This deal is the best we can do—unless a new team

As Congress votes next month on whether to support the nuclear agreement Team Obama has negotiated with Iran, two assessments are necessary.

In the aftermath of the July 16th Chattanooga murders claiming the lives of five U.S. servicemen and the FBI’s findings concerning the killer’s motivation, we desperately need a correct diagnosis to be made as to cause. Unfortunately, both the media and our government refuse to give it.

The late conservative commentator Paul Harvey’s radio program had a segment titled “The Rest of the Story.” He would begin discussing a story line, pausing for effect with a commercial break, and then returning to finish it—usually with an unexpected twist.

A member of the President’s own party—in the course of questioning Secretary of State John Kerry during hearings on the Iran nuclear deal—has exposed a disturbing mindset among Obama’s minions. Kerry’s response to a very clearly stated question places this mindset on center stage.

Last week, Congress kicked off hearings for its 60-day review of President Barack Obama’s nuclear deal with Iran. Despite Administration assurances—given even before the agreement was concluded—Congress would have this review time, Obama rushed the deal to judgment at the U.N. to bind the U.S. internationally before congressional review could be undertaken.

While it is said the enemy of my enemy is my friend, what status then attaches to the friend of my enemy? If our enemy has a friend who opts to give him shelter and support as well as a mandate to do us harm, does not his friend qualify as our enemy? Apparently not when the friend of our enemy is Iran, a country where the ruling mullahs– in President Obama’s eyes, apparently– can do no wrong.

Only a few days remain before the June 30th deadline for a comprehensive agreement between Washington and Tehran on the latter’s nuclear program is to be reached. The defining issue remains Iranian intentions. While U.S. negotiators have struggled with intelligence assessments to gain a clearer focus on this, a document stating those intentions, in the mullahs’ own words, is overlooked—Iran’s constitution.
