Greetings everyone, and Happy New Year. I am starting this new year with a new right hip. Surgery was back in December, and recovery has gone exceptionally well. I know that many of you have resolutions; I hope you can fulfill them. As we enter into 2026, the year that will welcome America's 250th celebration of Independence, and a critical midterm election, there is a simple question.

What do Democrats prioritize?

Yes, I know that the shape-shifting Marxist leftists are trying to deflect by coming up with the narrative of affordability. As if they really make anything affordable for Americans. Yes, we have a political party called the Democratic Party, but their philosophy of governance is Marxist, and if you listen carefully, communist. They embrace principles, ideals, and ensuing policies that are antithetical to our Constitutional Republic and its foundation of individual rights, freedom, and liberty. As we celebrate our independence, we should recognize that the Marxist leftists advance a direction to make Americans more dependent. They do not prioritize the individual; they celebrate the collective subjugation of the law-abiding citizen.

Leftists have shown that they prioritize criminal illegal immigrants over the safety and security of Americans. Ideals such as "sanctuary" cities and states are unlawful, unconstitutional, and illegal. How can any elected official support the idea of harboring those who have committed a crime in entering the Country unlawfully, and that is enshrined in the U.S. Statute and Code. Why would anyone support a political party and ideology that demonizes and attacks our law enforcement officers who are enforcing the law? It is plain to see that the American Marxist left places more priority on the illegal element in our Country than our own sworn officers who have a duty to protect us and safeguard our sovereignty.

You just have to scratch your head when........
