Secure Freedom Minute

President Trump appropriately responded militarily this week to attacks by the Iranian regime on shipping in the Strait of Hormuz. The episode underscores, however, what is certain to be repeated by our enemies in Tehran if they remain in power. The reason is only partly because Iran’s jihadists view a “humiliation ritual” as their strongest weapon for winning by defeating President Trump politica...

Yesterday, President Trump repeatedly declared that “There is something wrong” with the leaders of Iran. He’s absolutely right, fundamentally, because the current crop – like all their predecessors – are sharia-supremacists.  As such, they will do everything possible to destroy unbelievers, including fellow Muslims they consider to be apostates and certainly us. To that end, they’ll employ every i...

Today, Donald Trump declared that, as far as he is concerned, the so-called “ceasefire” with Iran is “over.” What is really noteworthy is that the President’s explanation for why negotiations are now “a waste of time” effectively precludes pursuing them further. Having previously applauded Iran’s current leaders, Mr. Trump just excoriated them as “liars,” “scum,” “cuckoo” and “vicious” “violent” a...

Today, a country that shouldn’t actually be in NATO will be hosting its summit. After all, under Recep Tayyip Erdogan, Turkey has been a leading force on behalf of the “Red-Green axis” – the alliance between Communists and sharia-supremacists whose object is destroying Western civilization.  That goal has been enormously advanced by Erdogan’s relentless efforts to insert ever-larger numbers of una...

Millions of Iranians have taken to the streets of Tehran for the funeral of the country’s longtime dictator, Grand Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. Their aspiration is revenge, expressed by mass chants of “Death to America. Death to Israel.” Unfortunately, despite abundant evidence that the mullahs are not trustworthy parties to ongoing negotiations, let alone willing to conclude a genuine and enduring pea...

The celebration is underway of America’s Revolution – which, with God’s grace brought the world the most free, the most powerful and the most economically successful nation ever. Unfortunately, the prospects for the next 250 years are being marred by an anti-American counter-revolution increasingly in evidence across the country.  Communists, doing business as “Democratic Socialists,” and sharia-s...

Yesterday, the satirical website Babylon Bee posted a brilliant  internet meme. It featured a camouflage-uniformed man armed with a rocket-propelled grenade pensively sitting in a chair. The caption reads, “Terrorist torn between going on violent jihad or getting elected as a Democratic senator.”  Unfortunately, that’s no joke. Our BanSharia.com webinar yesterday about “Election Jihad” made clear...

Supreme Court Justice Robert Jackson famously observed that “The Constitution is not a suicide pact.” With yesterday’s ruling concerning so-called “birthright citizenship,” a majority of his successors on today’s Court decided that it actually is. They declared the 14th Amendment makes absolutely everyone born here a citizen. They did so knowing that’s a formula for more illegal immigration to cre...

There’s a powerful new force in American politics. Muslim Brotherhood-associated organizations and Islamic centers are engaged in what might best be called “election jihad.” The potency of aggressive and highly disciplined get-out-the-vote efforts and bloc-voting for sharia-supremacist-approved candidates – whether Muslim or Muslim-aligned – has skewed elections in Britain and other European count...

The cause of freedom was advanced last week in Texas. In the course of five exhausting days of public testimony, line-by-line deliberations and voting, that state’s top educational board approved pro-American, pro-freedom required reading lists, curriculums and standards.  In what can only be described as non-kinetic trench warfare, a majority of the Texas State Board of Education, led by two of i...

Team USA lost to Turkey yesterday in the World Cup. Fortunately, it will nonetheless be able to advance in the competition. Another loss to Turkey is in prospect – one that may not have a happy outcome. President Trump says he may bring a “big gift” to his Turkish counterpart Recep Tayyip Erdogan, the host of NATO’s upcoming summit in Ankara. He reportedly has in mind selling the Turks America’s f...

A new force is evident in electoral politics in America. It’s the Red-Green axis and its implications for the country are ominous.  The axis is personified by Zorhan Mamdani, who won the New York City mayor’s race last year.  Of particular concern in this year’s election cycle are the combined efforts of Democratic Socialists of America and Muslim Brotherhood front groups putting boots on the grou...

A new music video “They Knew” condemns decades of rape and enslavement of over a quarter-million British girls by Pakistani Muslim gangs with the knowledge and complicity of British authorities.  Such “rape jihad” is not limited to the United Kingdom. Countries across Europe have also seen those who have made Islam’s migratory “hijra” emulating their “perfect man,” the prophet Mohammed, ravaging h...

Another fight for the future of Texas looms this afternoon. The Board of Education of the Ft. Worth independent school district will be petulantly told it must entrust a 2,000 student high-school to a problematic principal.  At issue is not whether a sharia-adherent Muslim named Shayma Alzubi has the right to espouse Palestinian calls for genocide of Jews with the phrase “from the river to the sea...

For five decades, I have worked inside government and out to expose, challenge and counter totalitarian enemies of our country pursuing her destruction. Currently, those forces include such adversaries foreign and domestic as Chinese Communists and their allies, sharia-supremacists and global elitists. I call it the “Red-Green-Blue axis.” One line of attack common to such enemies is influencing an...

Teach Our Kids to Know and Love Freedom, Not Hate America   Starting next Monday, the Texas State Board of Education will finalize changes to the social studies curriculum taught to its K-12 public school students. In recent months, the process has turned into a pitched battle with incredibly high stakes. That’s not just because what is taught about our nation’s history, government and values to s...

Yesterday, President Trump formally signed a deal with Iran based in part on an assessment that we can safely, and generously, do business with its new leadership. Unfortunately, a webinar conducted shortly before the ceremony shockingly exposed why the unaltered, sharia-supremacist character of Iran’s government remains a threat to its own people, and ours. This program was part of a series exami...

President Trump is expected to hold a press conference today to discuss a fourteen-point “deal” with Iran. Incredibly, it would formalize the United States’ surrender to a regime that has, from its inception, unwaveringly sought to bring “Death to America.”  For example, many billions of dollars will immediately begin flowing to its jihadists. All sanctions will end. The U.S. will withdraw its for...

There’s much loose talk about the so-called “deal” between the United States and Iran. Increasingly, it’s being described as “ending the war.”  That is, at best, wildly premature. At worst, it is dangerously delusional. By restoring the Iranian regime’s access to oil revenues, ending sanctions and blockades of its ports, this agreement assures its survival and eliminates U.S. leverage – effectivel...

That would appear to be the case with the so-called “deal” with Iran’s regime now expected to be signed on Friday. President Trump is determined to get the Strait of Hormuz reopened and gas prices reduced before the mid-term elections. While the accord’s details aren’t available yet and, if past Iranian practice is any guide, may be further modified, it seems lopsidedly advantageous to our enemies...
