For years, liberal activists have been trying to rid our food of all types of dyes. A dye-free food supply was sought by RFK Jr., but a liberal activist judge has blocked West Virginia’s landmark ban on food dyes. The Obama-appointed judge has dictated that the ban cannot move forward. Many substances are banned from our food supply, but this judge says dyes cannot be one of them.

I recently took a trip to Atlantic City. We stayed in the beautiful Ocean Casino, which sits in the middle of a destroyed town. Crime, drugs, violence in what was once America’s playground. Atlantic City had it all years ago, but because of poor management, Section 8 housing, which brought poverty and homelessness, the city collapsed. People are scared to walk the streets. It’s heartbreaking. Doesn’t it sound a lot like what happened to Pottstown? Also heartbreaking.
Modern narco-terrorist identification is layered and cumulative, not based on a single drone image. Satellites first detect and track suspicious watercraft and patterns. High-altitude loitering aircraft then collect thousands of high-resolution images using advanced optics and AI multi-frame analysis of fine details such as cargo. Identification relies on repeated observations, behavior, and physical features. Bombs are deployed only after multi-tier verification is established. So stop with the “fishing boat” propaganda.
DEA not DEI
Suspend your disbelief for a moment. Consider a hypothetical: Those boats Trump is blowing up are carrying plain, ordinary hand-crafted Venezuelan merchandise to nearby islands for sale. Or maybe dissidents fleeing Maduro’s regime. Trump claims secret evidence proves drug traffic, but refuses to make it public. For all claiming the government has lied for years, is it such a stretch to believe Trump is incapable of lying?
29 out of 30 NBA arenas are selling naming rights. 27 out of 30 NFL teams have naming rights, 22 out of 30 MLB stadiums have naming rights, so tell me again why you are so offended with Trump’s name being put on the Kennedy Center since he put the money in to restore the relic? It is pretty sad how TDS has attacked performers now as well. It’s not an arts center anymore; it is a political piece of architecture!

So let me get this straight: a president authorizing the military to take out narco-terrorists is suddenly “illegal” and “impeachable,” but a president spending four years ordering the military and law enforcement to look the other way on border security and immigration laws is somehow totally fine? Amazing how the rulebook only matters to the left when it’s politically convenient for them. Dem’s be tripp’n!

Tapped out. Same old, same old, having to get articles about New York and charitable giving to print in the Mercury to make it look like Trump’s problem. Tapped out was a major problem under Biden, as that was when everything went up in price under his watch. Bringing prices down is not a one-year venture; it takes time to set things straight after four years of Democrat control.
Self-Righteous American — you really ought to check your “facts” before you go spouting them. Rob Reiner has always been against political violence of any kind, and those rumors that you read on social media have all been debunked. I can’t believe you’d be foolish enough to believe them, let alone repeat them. So while you’re dancing on Rob Reiner‘s grave, the rest of us are looking on in horror, because you’re the despicable one.

Sound Off: Where momentous public events and controversies inspire otherwise decent people to call each other childish names. Is this a great country or what?

Diana (preferred pronouns Dem/Dumb) still refuses to understand the fact that the US has every legal right to blow up narcoterrorist drug boats. But like every other TDS sufferer, facts don’t matter. CNN authors the narrative. “Orange Man is Bad” is the mantra. Stop allowing yourself to be manipulated.
Missy Miss
We are taking our country back, Lib Loons. You will never tell me what to think, never what to say, never how to worship or not, never to tell me how to vote, none of what I choose to do is absolutely none of your business. Shut up and live your life, leave mine alone
My Social Security boost is rather thin this year, thanks to Trump. Joe and Barack always took care of all Americans, but those days are over. Kamala Harris warned us that Donnie would short-change us, but 77 million cult members rolled over. Can’t wait until he’s out!
Lefty, Fighting the Good Fight
When you have to watch a 100% accurate investigative report via a bootlegged copy from Canada, you know the United States no longer has freedom of the press. Just one of many Constitutional freedoms that have been removed by the Orange Virus. The irony is that they’re always screaming about the Constitution!
RealAmerica
Every time I see one of those videos showing a drug-running boat getting blown to smithereens, my heart dances with joy. I celebrate that hundreds, if not thousands, of American deaths have been averted. Then I think of people I heard about who died from drug overdoses. If it takes a second or third strike to kill all in the boat, so be it. The extra missile or two is worth it.

Did you know that pharmaceutical corporations spend millions of dollars investigating old home remedies?

It will be nice to watch Trump’s name being ripped off the Kennedy Center when he’s gone. They can put the letters in the ground with him. Trump’s name shouldn’t even be in the same sentence with John F. Kennedy. Kennedy was a war hero. Trump was a draft dodger.
A massive lawsuit is headed to Brown University. A Brown University custodian reported to the campus security weeks before the recent shooting that the murderer was “casing” the engineering building. He claims that as soon as he saw the photos of the murderer, he recognized him as the man he reported to security. Brown’s security must be reconstituted with real police officers.

Ever notice how much Gavin Newsom uses his hands while talking? If he ever leaves politics, he could get a job as a Sign Language interpreter.
