…Ensure Domestic Tranquility

Allen West argues that the Left’s efforts to shut down the Department of Homeland Security and defund law enforcement directly violate the Constitution’s imperative to “ensure domestic Tranquility,” with real consequences — including the cancellation of 130 training classes for thousands of state and local officers across the country.

Shall Not Be Infringed

What happens when the state that gave America James Madison considers legislation that critics say undermines the very rights he helped enshrine? A proposed Virginia law would ban the future sale of certain semi-automatic firearms and magazines, igniting a fierce debate over the Second Amendment, constitutional limits, and the role of government in regulating arms. Supporters argue the measure promotes public safety. Opponents say it contradicts both the historical purpose of the amendment and Supreme Court rulings affirming an individual right to keep and bear arms. With the bill now sitting on the governor’s desk, the controversy highlights a broader national clash over constitutional interpretation, public safety, and the enduring meaning of the right to bear arms.

There is no compromise with a regime that chants "Death to America" and means it. Removing Iran as a threat isn't optional. It's a strategic geopolitical imperative.

The Incompatibility of Sharia Law with the U.S. Constitution

Texas is voting to ban Sharia law — and for good reason. When apostasy, simply leaving Islam, is a capital crime in over a dozen countries, there is no compatibility with our First Amendment. Just ask Nissar Hussain, a British Pakistani man condemned to death by a Sharia court for converting to Christianity. His warning to America is one we cannot afford to ignore.
