We’ve all heard the stats: currently, only the United States grants birthright citizenship to illegal aliens, and 8% of babies born in the US are so-called “anchor babies” born of illegal aliens. In and of itself, this doesn’t constitute a crisis, but, for many of us, it does illustrate how far we’ve strayed from the [...]

Though the U.S. Constitution is of scant consequence in DC these days, Americans should remember that nullification continues to be a well-established and constitutionally justifiable remedy to federal overreach. But, a practical word of caution: only  a determined act of nullification has any hope of success. (You may refer to my previous posts on nullification [...]

Faced with deadly cross border forays from Mexican drug cartels, afflicted by the suffocating incursion of nearly a half million illegal aliens, and confronted by a federal government’s unwillingness to properly protect the people of Arizona and the United States from such incursions and violence, what is the Governor of Arizona to do?

And though I have monitored developments, I have assumed, rightly or wrongly, that others have been following this tortured saga as well.
