Citizen Writers Fighting Censorship by Helping Americans Understand Issues Affecting the Republic.

The knives are out for Ken Martin, who heads the DNC. He sucks at fundraising and he has ticked off the DSA communists in the party.
The New York Times once again is siding with the communists as it reported, “Inside the Phone-Throwing Drama at the Troubled, Broke Democrat Party.”
Which leads to Wednesday’s Senate committee hearing—chaired by Senator Rand Paul—into the trillion-dollar covid catastrophe caused by Tony Fauci, whom Reagan brought to Washington to find a cure for AIDS. Over the course of 40 years, Fauci built a bureaucratic empire and ingratiated himself among the politicians, celebrities and press gaggles of DC. Barbra Streisand had him on speed dial.
I may be the only person left in the world to call the land Red China, but that does not make me wrong. Chairman Xi runs the joint and he is the president of the Chinese Communist Party—the largest political party in the world.
On Saturday, Senator Rand Paul released over a thousand pages of Anthony Fauci’s personal diary/journal entries (covering roughly December 2019 to December 2022) ahead of Fauci’s subpoenaed Senate testimony. The entries include notes on COVID cases/deaths alongside Fauci’s tracking of media coverage of himself, interactions with Trump administration officials, journalists, and celebrities, and private thoughts that some critics say conflicted with public statements.
On May 9, 2013, David Burge, a blogger best known for identifying old cars from family photos sent in by readers, told a truth about journalism that no others would dare: “Journalism is about covering important stories. With a pillow, until they stop moving.”
Don Surber takes us through the most impactful news items of the week in a manner only he can. You’ll see the media for what it is and uncover the truth behind the packaging. Enjoy!
President Trump announced the USA will allow Saudi Arabia provided the Crown Prince signs the Abraham Accords and officially recognizes Israel’s right to exist. The Saudis already do. The two countries have made under-the-table deals in the past. Nothing personal, just business.
Democrats have a poison called DSA—Democrat Socialists of America—a communist organization that made Mamdani mayor of New York, New York. If communism can make it there, it will make it anywhere, right?
But Democrat officials know voters are rejecting it—for now.
My condolences to Andy Burnham upon his selection as the 59th prime minister of the United Kingdom. The political insiders picked the right guy because he has experience in handling tragedies.
Days after Burnham was sworn in as mayor of Manchester in 2017, a Muslim suicide bomber ignited a nail bomb that killed him and 21 others and injured more than 1,000 fans at an Ariana Grande concert. Most of the victims were young girls. Muslim terrorists have real problems with females.
Sometimes a swamp critter acts too smart for his own good. And so it goes with the Dishonorable Judge Jimmy the Geek Boasberg, who mocked the Department of Justice in a hearing on March 21, 2025, in which the ACLU claimed that the government violated a previous order by Boasberg not to deport 100 members of the Venezuelan gang TdA.
Don Surber’s roundup of this week’s news items is more enlightening than the actual reporting. Enjoy!
Just what time that sun’ll come out is up to Congress.
Having balanced the budget, passed the SAVE Act and restricted insider trading by congressmen and congressional staffers, members of the House and the Senate are debating time itself. The issue is whether we should go to year-round daylight savings time, year-round standard time or just leave the whole thing alone and keep changing our clocks twice a year.
Destroying Iran’s military threat to the world bounced President Trump’s approval back to 49% in the latest Rasmussen Poll. That’s his maximum just as it was for Lincoln. While the media claims the world has turned against him, the fact is he and America are on the top of the world, looking down on creation.
On June 24, 2026, two earthquakes hit Venezuela back-to-back. They registered 7.2 and 7.5, numbers that are pretty high on the Richter scale. The military sent in the Marines (and other branches). The State Department worked with charities such as Samaritan’s Purse, World Vision and Catholic Relief Services to avoid the confusion that occurred in the successful response to the January 12, 2010, earthquake in Haiti.
128 days after the IDF Cremation Services un-alived the ayatollah, Iran finally got to give their Supreme Leader a funeral. Israel and the United States agreed not to bomb the ceremony because that is the decent thing to do especially when millions of innocent civilians are weeping for him.
Senator Lindsey Graham died this weekend from a heart attack, two days after his 71st birthday. He left behind no wife, no children and not much of a fortune—at best $3 million after 33 years in Congress.
But he bequeathed to the American people a fair and impartial Supreme Court that had the boldness to take on the powers of the federal bureaucracy (West Virginia v. EPA) and return to the states powers previous courts and Congress had stolen (Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization).
Don Surber’s take on this week’s offerings from the news media will make you think and often laugh out loud. Enjoy!
The globalist Wall Street Journal published a two-part series on European resentment of Trump and hence, America. It was pretty good stuff.
A month ago, Democrats in Maine nominated Graham Platner and his Nazi tattoo (now covered up) as their Senate candidate. The party hoped that they could dress up as a working class hero someone expelled from a private school as a teen who grew up to be a ne’er-do-well.
A few Brits on Twitter congratulated us on our 250th birthday as a nation by reminding us that this Sunday they will celebrate the 1,099th anniversary of their nationhood.
Well, cheers to them as well.
