A president's judges affect the country more, and longer, than most of his policies. Here's why judicial appointment opportunities have slowed and how Pres Trump and the Senate GOP are pushing forward. nationalreview.com/bench-mem…

President Trump’s decision to lift sanctions on Russian fuel amidst Putin’s ongoing and brutal attacks on civilian targets in Ukraine makes no sense and is a betrayal of the legacy and leadership of the late Senator Lindsey Graham. While Ukraine fights for its survival, Putin’s war machine continues to prosecute his terrorist war on civilian populations and innocent Ukrainians are dying every day. Now, Instead of implementing the tough sanctions Lindsey Graham fought to his last breath to enact, President Trump has announced the United States is lifting sanctions on Russian energy, fueling the Putin’s war machine. As I saw firsthand in Ukraine last month, Putin is losing this war. Ukraine has fought the Russian military to a standstill and reinvented warfare with drones taking the fight into the heart of Russia. America should not be throwing a lifeline to Putin’s war machine. Now is the time to stand strong against Russian aggression as we did during the first Trump administration. Putin doesn’t want peace. Putin wants Ukraine. I have no doubt that if Putin overruns Ukraine, it will only be a matter of time until Russia’s military crosses a border that our troops will have to deal with him. America is the Leader of the Free World. For our National Security, for the security of our Allies in Europe including Ukraine, President Trump should rescind this deal immediately and return to the strong policies of our four years in the White House; impose harsh sanctions on any nation purchasing Russian energy and work with our allies to ensure Ukraine has the military support it needs to repel and defeat this Russian invasion once and for all.

John Adams warned that when a nation abandons property rights and economic liberty in favor of redistribution, it risks undermining the very foundations of its prosperity. America must return to the principles that made it great. Read more from AAF’s Timothy Harper in @ProvMagazine

Astonishing and truly deplorable. What Tucker Carlson says is indefensible.
"I've never understood, why fight the second world war in the first place?" Anti-anti-Hitler podcaster @TuckerCarlson argues that Britain SHOULD NOT HAVE FOUGHT THE NAZIS. A transcript of the discussion starting at 1:02 in this clip (watch before/after for context)... Tucker: "The UK had nothing to do with it, at all, and they destroyed their empire and their country fighting this war that they still pretend was a good idea, but it wasn't." Jacob Rees-Mogg: "It was fundamental. It was the classic Good vs. Evil." Tucker: "Has the UK benefited from it?" JRM: "We did the right thing." Tucker: "Is it a better country than it was?" JRM: "To have defeated Hitler, yes." Tucker: "So the UK is a better country now, it's a healthier country now--" JRM: "The allies would be speaking German!" Tucker: "Who cares?" JRM: "I do." Tucker: "There are a lot of people in Britain who can't speak English, so it would be nice to have, like, at least a European language spoken in your country!"

Fantastic fun!
The effective way the clarinet player does a musical call and response to the singer is just mesmerizing. "Tu vuo' fa' l'americano" by Renato Carosone: cover by Hetty and the Jazzato Band, an Anglo-Italian jazz quintet.

Proof that Mel Brooks is a prophetic genius: He accurately predicted the topics of Tucker Carlson's podcast almost 50 years ago.
