I confess that I thought the parade could fall into the trap of being a gigantic birthday celebration for Donald Trump. I was more concerned that the cabal would turn it into that. It was actually an affirmation of gratitude.

On this date back in 2015, Donald Trump descended the escalator. And the Trump era began.

There are likely more foreign-born people in the United States today than at any time in our entire history.

Legal immigrants come to this country to thrive. But this wave of uncontrolled immigration, like those that washed over the country during the Biden administration, those waves have implications for the country that we cannot ignore.

The big question... Could this lead to World War III? I don't think it will, but I will tell you that it could. We're just one misstep away from the abyss. But I've always thought we were always one step away from the abyss.
