  • George Rebane Democrats admit to using illegal aliens to boost their receipt of fed funds and stacking Congress with their representatives.  Today on Fox News Sunday we saw videos of both CA AG Xavier Becerra and Rep Brad Sherman (D-CA) admit and argue for illegal aliens being counted in the upcoming census so that CA…

  • George Rebane More illegal aliens (Dreamers or whatever) became criminals when/if they worked on any part of Hillary’s campaign in 2016.  Federal law specifically prohibits foreign nationals from working on or contributing to candidates’ campaigns in federal elections. The records should still be there if they were paid by check or if they paid by…

  • George Rebane Today’s Union has an excellent editorial – ‘Our View: This community is all our backyard’ – in which it takes to task those of us who tend to oppose anything that will bring needed change to our county.  The editorial goes through a number of recent and current development initiatives that have again…

  • George Rebane Yesterday was the day kids across the country were organized to walk out of their classes and protest ‘gun violence’.  Given what the little darlins are (not) taught in schools, they appeared to have no idea of what had happened in Parkland and what they were actually protesting with signs like ‘Choose me,…

  • George Rebane College students can’t write, like in cursive handwriting.  More and more are in dire straits at schools that don’t allow laptops in the lecture halls.  Years ago the loss of that ability was described in sci-fi stories of a future when writing skills had withered and people ‘wrote’ by speaking to computers with…

  • [The corruption of the FBI is detailed by former federal prosecutor and US attorney Joseph Digenova in the feb2018 issue of Imprimis.  Entitled ‘The Politicization of the FBI’, this summary of the 2016-17 ongoings with the Clinton and Trump campaigns is the most clear, concise, and complete recounting I have read.  It totally corroborates the…

  • If you cannot see the irony in having a gun ban enforced by men with guns, then you fail to understand why the Second Amendment was written in the first place. George Rebane The NYT publishes another exhibit of yellow journalism with an article (here) that leaves the naïve reader convinced that ‘assault rifles’, like…

  • George Rebane Well, there is a difference or two between the Nunes (here)and the Schiff (here) memos.  The main difference is the approach to disclose.  Nunes stated material facts of what was and was not in the FISA application – it was not comprehensive for a number of reasons that included it being a purposely sanitized version…

  • George Rebane RR has always taken the position that keeping certain facilities (public and private) as ‘gun free zones’ has been and continues to be a terribly misguided policy.  There are millions of CCW permit holders in America who regularly carry, and keeping these folks out of ‘gun free zones’ has demonstrated that the only…
