With all his chips now in the middle of the table as this session of Congress winds down, Biden’s hand looks weaker and weaker. Wednesday, four polls found that half the nation — and in three of them, more than half — now disapprove of his presidency.

If, as the slogan proclaims, “Black lives matter,” why is there not greater public alarm at BLM in who is killing so many Black people?

In Glasgow beginning Oct. 31, Boris Johnson will host the 26th U.N. Climate Change Conference. There, new demands will be made on the Americans, both for more money and new reductions in carbon emissions. Brand the U.S. as history’s great producer of carbon dioxide. Depict the Second and Third Worlds as victims of American self-indulgence. And get on with the shakedown. Demand more money. Castigate the Americans by calling Biden’s $11.4 billion a pittance, not enough.

How much ruin can a nation endure and remain a nation?

Pat Buchanan

Over the last 20 years, the U.S. lost 2,500 troops with 20,000 wounded and invested $1 trillion to create an Afghan army, only to see that army crumble and disintegrate as soon as we departed.

Pat Buchanan

Biden is failing in his first constitutional duty — to defend the United States from foreign invasion. We Americans no longer decide who comes into our national home and whom we shall adopt as new citizens… We defend the borders of scores of nations; we cannot, or Biden will not, defend our own.

Pat Buchanan

 if Biden gets the $1 trillion infrastructure proposal and the $3.5 trillion package, he will have enlarged federal spending by $6 trillion. This would constitute the greatest leap forward toward socialism of any American president…This would not only be a quantum leap toward European-style socialism. It would cross a divide for America, from which history teaches us there is no return.

Pat Buchanan

A huge pro-Trump demonstration of tens of thousands, out of which a mob of hundreds moved on the Capitol, broke police lines, assaulted cops, rampaged and disrupted an official proceeding. All in all, a shameful disgrace. But 1/6 was not 9/11 or Oklahoma City or Pearl Harbor or the Pulse nightclub or the Las Vegas massacre.

This June, 188,800 illegals crossed into the United States. If the present rate of illegal entries continues, Biden, by the end of his first year as President, will have failed to stop perhaps 2 million illegal aliens from having breached our southern border. Biden is conducting the border policy of a failed state.

Pat Buchanan

Biden is inviting a comparison of what he faces with what Abraham Lincoln faced when he took office in 1861 with seven Southern states having voted to secede and Fort Sumter a month away.

Pat Buchanan

The new president was taking office in a brief era of good feelings produced by the departure of the party and president who had given us the Jan. 6 Capitol riot. Thus did Biden begin his administration with his approval at a level his predecessor never reached in any year of his presidency. But now the storm clouds are gathering and rumbling.

Pat Buchanan

“Law and order,” the issue that arose in the ’60s to tear apart President Franklin Delano Roosevelt’s New Deal Coalition, is back. And the emotional anti-cop wave after the George Floyd killing in Minneapolis a year ago, manifest in the “Defund the Police!” demand of Black Lives Matter, has receded.

Pat Buchanan

He alone can make or break virtually the entire agenda that progressives had anticipated whistling through both houses in the first session of the 117th Congress.

Pat Buchanan

Democrats had anticipated that the commission hearings would rivet the nation and media’s attention all year, with the final report coming out at year’s end. This would enable the Democrats to make Trump’s actions on Jan. 6 the issue of 2022. When Trump labeled this commission idea a “Democratic trap,” he nailed it.

And the defining crisis of the Biden presidency may be the crisis on our southern border with annual rate of 2 million people walking into our country uninvited, the advance guard of a Third World invasion…The America we grew up in is disappearing — without our consent.

Pat Buchanan

The daily reports of escalating violent crime, resulting in growing numbers of innocent wounded and dead, are inducing a fear for safety that is outstripping any fear of cops. And politicians are beginning to see the numbers shift and reacting accordingly.

Pat Buchanan

Can you lead a country about whose history you profess shame? And how long will Americans follow leaders who appear to agree with those who hate what America was and, yes, what America is?

Pat Buchanan

While Biden’s $6 trillion in total spending is spread over several years, it represents a claim on the nation’s wealth equal to 30% of GDP — a figure comparable to FDR’s New Deal and LBJ’s Great Society… Where does Biden propose to get the money to pay for this great leap forward for government?

Pat Buchanan

Biden said that when Chauvin knelt on the neck of George Floyd the world, for once, was getting a good, close look at the diseased soul of America. What Chauvin did to Floyd, said the president of the United States, is a reflection of the kind of justice America delivers to Black Americans.

Pat Buchanan

Sorry, but India’s Dalit community is Narendra Modi’s responsibility. The indigenous population of Brazil is Jair Bolsonaro’s responsibility. And the “farm workers and grocery store clerks in the USA” are ours.

Pat Buchanan

If Joe Biden’s American Jobs Program is enacted, then the federal government will take a great leap forward toward irreversible control of the destiny of the Republic. To finance this leap, to subsidize this giant stride toward socialism, U.S. corporations are to be forced to turn over to the government a far larger slice of their earnings.

Pat Buchanan

It is impossible to see, given the Biden administration policies adopted, how the invasion of America can be halted. And if 2 million or 3 million migrants reach the U.S. border and cross over each year, and we do not send them back, what stops the invasion and remaking America?

Pat Buchanan

If assaulting cops and besieging public buildings amounts to domestic terrorism, the rioting, looting, arson and assaults on cops we saw all last summer in Minneapolis, Portland, Seattle, Kenosha and Louisville from antifa and Black Lives Matter protestors would more than qualify…My guess, Minneapolis, not Capitol Hill, is where the action will be this spring, and it will not be Proud Boys keeping the cops busy, but folks who, if they did vote in 2020, voted Democratic.

Pat Buchanan

if Romney is right and Trump has the kind of strength that could make him the nominee in 2024, that strength will surely be sufficient to veto or sink any potential nominee who does not have the former president’s blessing.
