And to have borders, you have to have people to enforce those borders, especially when you are a nation like the United States. Plenty of people around the world talk a lot of horse squeeze about the United States, but when it comes right down to it, they all want to come here, and during the late, unlamented Biden administration, a lot of them entered illegally, and were given a pat on the head and released.]]>Wed, 24 Jun 2026 17:19:07 -0400<![CDATA[Ward Clark]]><![CDATA[Border Patrol]]><![CDATA[Border Security]]><![CDATA[DHS]]><![CDATA[Illegal Immigration]]><![CDATA[Trump Administration]]>https://redstate.com/wardclark/2026/06/24/trump-delivers-record-border-patrol-numbers-now-eyeing-more-new-hires-n2203690<![CDATA[Now that their access to pond scum has been restricted, the bottom feeders of the loony left have set their sights on ... a tarp.&nbsp;]]>Wed, 24 Jun 2026 17:00:30 -0400<![CDATA[Teri Christoph]]><![CDATA[Donald Trump]]><![CDATA[Jamie Raskin]]><![CDATA[Jim Acosta]]><![CDATA[America 250]]>https://redstate.com/terichristoph/2026/06/24/the-pond-scum-obsessors-now-freak-out-over-a-tarp-n2203685<![CDATA[At this point, the Democrats are in complete chaos.&nbsp;]]>Wed, 24 Jun 2026 16:38:00 -0400<![CDATA[Nick Arama]]><![CDATA[Chris Murphy]]><![CDATA[Democrat Party]]><![CDATA[DNC]]><![CDATA[Socialism]]><![CDATA[Lisa Blunt Rochester]]>https://redstate.com/nick-arama/2026/06/24/this-answer-to-where-socialism-has-worked-says-it-all-as-dems-finally-realize-they-have-a-problem-n2203679<![CDATA[The big data centers required to operate modern artificial intelligence (AI) and other various computing chores are the subject of a lot of controversy, not the least of which is rooted in some "Not in my backyard" (NIMBY) complaints.

But Democrats have clearly been sticking their heads in the sand. Now, Democratic Socialists are front and center, and there is a very good argument that it is now Zohran Mamdani's party.
