It’s border patrol and not ICE. ICE leadership objects to these stunts, which is why Kristi Noem has Greg Bovino of the border patrol in charge. Ironically, Bovino’s boss also objects, so he has been sidelined by Noem.

Hi everyone, just want you to know there are 1,096 days left for the Trump Administration. Have fun.

If it were Netanyahu, progressives would be dancing in the streets. But instead of a democratically elected leader, it’s a communist dictator, so they’re upset.

More Pinochets and less Maduros would be a sound policy.

Being angry on the internet on Christmas Day is a choice. Christ is born. Rejoice and go enjoy your family, or go outside and enjoy nature. All of nature longs for His return.

O holy night! the stars are brightly shining; It is the night of the dear Savior's birth. Long lay the world in sin and error pining, Till he appeared and the soul felt its worth.

Merry Christmas to all of you.

It has been obvious Charlie Kirk’s assassin is steeped in progressive ideology. The WSJ confirms it today from investigators’ interviews with Robinson’s family. Now this. But the left must deny it because their narrative of virtue is more important than the truth.

These are all the murders in Washington, D.C. in 2024. I've drawn red lines to show the four quadrants of the city. The reporters and pundits on TV who tell you there's not a crime problem live in the Northwest Quadrant, mostly in Ward 3, well away from the crime, or they live in VA or MD.

One of the great problems I have with the left is that they want to exclude from society a lot of people with views and ideas the left finds terrible without the recognition that a lot of people disagree with them for reasonable reasons.

Some people maybe need to unplug from the internet and politics. They've turned unhealthy in their thinking. Without controlling the ring of power, they cannot handle life.

When politics replaces religion, its worshippers look to explain disasters through politics. It becomes ghoulish casting blame on politicians you don’t like because of rain and flooding. But they can’t and don’t see it. It is idol worship.

A must read from The Atlantic on how the left has gotten itself into a bubble on gender research and the left believes many things that are simply not true. web.archive.org/web/20250701...

We bombed Iran.

I’ve used ChatGPT and Perplexity to summarize news articles every afternoon to help me do a short podcast of major news developments. I had to go back to doing it myself because they started making up stories that simply didn’t exist even though I’d given them the links to summarize.

I see the tolerant people of BlueSky were very welcoming of the Vice President of the United States.

Weirdly, @kenwhite.bsky.social thinks a US Senator is my pocket. LOLOLOL.

Democrats, consider this: your party leaders and the American press corps collaborated to get Donald Trump re-elected by gaslighting the public about Joe Biden until the CNN debate.

The collusion of the press and Democrats over 5 years to gaslight the American public over Joe Biden’s mental decline is worse than January 6th.

I’m glad Jake Tapper and Alex Thompson have exposed the Democrats’ coverup of Biden. But the American press corps also needs to account for its role. Just answer the basic question: how did the press miss what 70% of Americans were concerned about in 2021?

To his credit, Joe Scarborough has been very open about getting this so wrong. It came months after the Hur report. But it is just more to show the press participated with the Democrats in protecting Biden.

Here is then CNN reporter Oliver Darcy amplifying media doubts about Robert Hur’s characterization of Joe Biden. www.cnn.com/2024/03/13/m.... It was across networks that reporters cast doubts. Today, we have the audio and can see Hur accurately described Biden. www.axios.com/2025/05/16/b...

Here is CNN’s Oliver Darcy attacking the credibility of the Wall Street Journal and its reporters for casting doubts on Biden. www.cnn.com/2024/06/06/m... and now CNN’s Jake Tapper calls the same reporters “heroic” for their coverage in that report.

It was not just Democrats who engaged in the coverup of Joe Biden’s decline, but the press corps. Until the press holds itself accountable for the collaboration, trust cannot be restored.

An American journalist blaming the Holocaust on free speech is something I didn’t expect I’d ever hear, but here we are.

Progressives lost a general election — not just losing the electoral college, but the popular vote. What’s happening is not a “coup,” but the democratic process working against the people who convinced themselves only they could protect democracy. This is what rejection feels like.

Feel the need to come over to the other hell site just to point out there is no coup happening. Elections have consequences.

Pardon the pro-lifers, Mr. President.

Mexico is a failed narco-terror state. Treating it as such should have been US policy years ago. Trump targeting the drug cartels as foreign terrorist organizations is good. The fall out from the policy is necessary.

Seeing all these progressives on Bluesky, Twitter, etc. declare they’re breaking relations with family members who voted for Trump. It’s so easy when you don’t think you’ll be held accountable to God. You get to live life as you want, never having to love your neighbor if you don’t want to.

Daniel Dale, on CNN, insisted Trump was wrong about reservoirs in LA, but you can see the reservoir that covers the Palisades is dry even on Apple Maps. But who cares about the truth when the fact checker says the lie is the truth.

The present FBI needs reform. The status quo is unacceptable. Kash Patel, a disrupter, should be given a chance to do what must be done. The dead in New Orleans are silent. But their bodies are evidence of the failures of the status quo. ewerickson.substack.com/p/kash-patel...

I’ve had the pleasure of meeting presidents from both parties, some of whom I had vehement disagreement with. All said kind and supportive words about each other. None ever had anything good to say about Carter. But Joe Biden liked him. open.substack.com/pub/ewericks...

A direct quote from the founder of Kwanzaa. He went to prison in the seventies for torturing women in California. So, naturally, the same people who embrace “Latinx” have embraced this nonsense as a real holiday. ewerickson.substack.com/p/kwanzaa-a-...

And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth. Merry Christmas.

At His feet the six-winged seraph, Cherubim with sleepless eye, Veil their faces to the presence, As with ceaseless voice they cry: "Alleluia, Alleluia Alleluia, Lord Most High!"

Rank on rank the host of heaven Spreads its vanguard on the way, As the Light of light descendeth From the realms of endless day, That the pow'rs of hell may vanish As the darkness clears away.

King of kings, yet born of Mary, As of old on eartheav'nlyod, Lord of lords, in human vesture, In the body and the blood; He will give to all the faithful His own self for heav'nly food.

Let all mortal flesh keep silence, And with fear and trembling stand; Ponder nothing earthly-minded, For with blessing in His hand, Christ our God to earth descendeth, Our full homage to demand.

Merry Christmas, everybody. Jesus is real and true and will return. For to us a child is born, to us a son is given; and the government shall be upon his shoulder, and his name shall be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.

It's time for my annual Christmas Show. This link will replay the show from now through noon on December 26th. erickson.streamguys1.com/live247

Amazing to read this at the New York Times. Also, it is true. www.nytimes.com/2024/12/17/o...

Christmas is coming. Christ is more important than anything else, including politics and football.

The arguments by the left in Skrmetti were really weak. The Alito exchange on immutability was not good. Arguing the Courts should intervene to protect a pseudoscience was never going to go well.

So easy, it seems nuts to think it’d work. But, hear me out. Take 4 russet potatoes. Peel them. Slice into French fries. Cover in cold oil in a Dutch oven. Turn the stove on high. Flip after 20 minutes. Then regularly till browned. Remove and salt. Perfection. Yes, start in cold oil.
