by

A spokesman for the Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms discusses the poor statement by the potential future chief of police for Seattle.

But things are about to get worse, especially if Shon Barnes, current chief of police … Read more

Seattle Is Still Adamant Against Gun Violence, and Yet Its Police Division Can’t Even Keep Track of Them

by

A Second Amendment Foundation spokesman discusses the error, coming at a critical time for the city. Seattle has been a long-time adamant force against gun rights, making stern rules in the hopes of keeping guns out of easy reach (requiring being locked up) and trying to rid the streets of stolen firearms. But it’s just made an error that will push them further into a negative spotlight – and at just the worst time, too. … Read more

Why Are More Police Supporting Donald Trump For Re-Election As President? The Answer Is Pretty Clear (Guest: Michael Letts)

by

The law enforcement veteran explains why a number of police divisions are pushing for Trump instead of Kamala Harris. Despite what some people may think about Trump’s performance during the debate with Kamala Harris earlier this week, he’s still seeing a tremendous amount of support. And that includes various police divisions. Blue Lives Matter and Police Tribute are openly endorsing Trump for re-election as President. For that matter, Law Enforcement Today has also written a statement, providing … Read more

President Biden’s Left-Behind Remnants of the Afghanistan Pullout Could Push the Taliban To Dangerous New Heights (Guest: Michael Letts)

by

The law enforcement veteran discusses a new report suggesting that the President left behind $7 billion in weapons and fingerprint scanners – ripe for use by the Taliban. President Biden’s withdrawal in Afghanistan was nothing short of disaster. Along with the deaths of 13 soldiers, it appears now that several billion dollars of weapons and equipment were left behind. Weapons and equipment that, unfortunately, the Taliban could very well get its hands on. A new report … Read more

Venezuelan Gangs Are Running Wild In Colorado – and the City Needs To Do Something About It (Guest: Michael Letts)

by

The law enforcement veteran explains why action needs to be taken before it gets far worse. If President Joe Biden needed any evidence that the Border Crisis has reached critical levels, he needn’t look any further than Aurora, Colorado. Armed Venezuelan gang members have terrorized citizens within certain apartment complexes around the city as early as November 2023, based on findings by a local Denver law firm. The letter they produced indicates just how bad the situation … Read more

Another Police Department Has Shut Down Due To Budgetary Reasons – And Unnecessary Ones At That (Guest: Michael Letts)

by

The law enforcement veteran discusses what recently happened with the Marble Hill Police Department, and how it could’ve been avoided. The “defund the police” campaign that started back in 2020 has done catastrophic damage to police forces across the country.

Concerns About Criminal Activity In Austin – and the Lack of Police To Meet Them – Are Exactly Why More People Are Buying Guns (Guest: Stephen Willeford)

by

The spokesman for the Gun Owners of America explains why a growing criminal element is pushing more people to purchase firearms.

The FBI’s Continued Failures With Its Larry Nassar Investigation Are Too Big To Ignore (Guest: Michael Letts)

by

Just How Much Damage is President Biden’s Illegal Immigrant “Amnesty Program” Doing During the Border Crisis? (Guest: Michael Letts)

by

The law enforcement veteran explains why the Biden administration’s new program is anything but beneficial. In an effort to boost hype for Kamala Harris’ bid for the Presidency last week, President Joe Biden and his Administration recently launched an “amnesty program” set to help out certain illegal immigrants. But many believe that it has major flaws that could push the Border Crisis even further. The program, called “Keeping Families Together,” notes that “Noncitizens who are … Read more

According to the New York Post, the Committee’s latest report made note of a recent incident of four illegal … Read more

San Bernadino Calls For an Amendment To “Fund the Police Forever” (Guest: Michael Letts)

by

The law enforcement veteran discusses the new initiative, and why more cities should embrace it and take care of their police officers.

Per this report from The Epoch Times, a preliminary report requested by … Read more

The Citizens Committee For the Right to Keep and Bear Arms Explains Why It’s No Surprise Gun Licenses Have Increased Drastically In Washington

by

A spokesman for the group isn’t surprised at the numbers at all, given Attorney General Bob Ferguson’s complete ignorance on crime. For the first time ever in Washington State, more than 700,000 active concealed pistol licenses have been filed. It’s more than enough proof that the public have become concerned about safety since its massive increase in crime over the past couple of years. Seattle, particularly, has seen such an increase, to the point that … Read more

Denver Police Officers Aren’t Allowed To Do Low-Level Traffic Stops – And Criminals Are Slipping Away As a Result (Guest: Michael Letts)

by

The law enforcement veteran explains why Denver continues to tie the hands of its officers with the inability to perform such stops. Many states initiate low-level traffic stops for a number of reasons, such as a broken taillight, window tint or expired tags. But they can sometimes expose bigger problems, like a recent stop in New York that may have revealed a potential agent with the terrorist group ISIS. And yet, some states, like Denver, … Read more

Washington State Is Doing Little Next To Nothing When It Comes To Hiring More Police Officers – and the Numbers Prove It (Guest: Michael Letts)

by

It was recently reported that more than 700,000 active concealed pistol licenses have been filed, per numbers from the Department of … Read more

Should We Be Concerned About Cartels In the United States? (Guest: Michael Letts)

by

The law enforcement veteran believes there is more than enough reason to be worried about cartels operating in our country.

And it appears that this concern is escalating rapidly, even though current President Joe Biden has no plans to do anything about it. Chief Investigator Jay J. Armes III, who’s with Armes International Investigative … Read more

Why Are Democrats In Congress Trying To Push For Sensitivity Training For Police Officers, Rather Than Providing Them Needed Funding? (Guest: Michael Letts)

by

The law enforcement veteran explains why it’s not up to Congress to decide what training police officers need. A new progressive-backed bill is making its way through Congress, with the focus on mandating cultural and sensitivity training for police recruits. However, aside from some support through a few Democrats, it’s being shredded to bits. And rightfully so. Several Republicans, who have served as police officers themselves, note that “it is not the role of Congress, … Read more

A Lawsuit From a Former Seattle Police Officer Shows Just How Problematic Their Department Really Is (Guest: Michael Letts)

by

The law enforcement veteran discusses the case, and explains why an overhaul of the police department may be in order.

Democratic Presidential Nominee Kamala Harris Insists She’s “Tough On Crime” – But Is She? (Guest: Michael Letts)

by

by

Would Kamala Harris Work On a Police Funding Bill If She Were Elected President? (Guest: Michael Letts)

by

The law enforcement veteran ponders whether the Presidential nominee would help the officers in blue, or leave them hanging like Joe Biden has.

But several questions have arisen in regards to what Harris would do if elected. And one of those questions involves police funding. Budgets … Read more

President Biden Wants the Supreme Court To Change – But Why Not His Own Problematic Agencies? (Guest: Michael Letts)

by

With Kimberly Cheatle’s Departure, What Will Happen With the Secret Service? (Guest: Michael Letts)

by

Senator Eric Schmitt Believes Joe Biden Should Step Down – And He’s Got a Point (Guest: Michael Letts)

by

The law enforcement veteran explains why the 25th Amendment must be invoked to correct Biden’s mistakes. Earlier this week, President Joe Biden announced that he will not be running for re-election this fall, instead providing full support to his current Vice President, Kamala Harris, to be the nominee. But some aren’t satisfied with his bow-out next year, and believe that he should leave earlier due to his declining mental condition. Senator Eric Schmitt recently called upon … Read more

Did the Secret Service Fail Former President Donald Trump On Purpose? (Guest: Michael Letts)

by

The law enforcement veteran discusses a new report where the Secret Service failed to fulfill several requests by the Republican nominee. There’s a lot of discussion about how the Secret Service failed to keep former President Donald Trump safe during last week’s fateful rally stop in Pennsylvania.

Why Did Pittsburgh Police Pull Officers From Their Duty For Merely Keeping Donald Trump Safe During His Rally? (Guest: Michael Letts)

by

The law enforcement veteran discusses the “bone-headed” decision to punish officers that risked their lives to do their duty.

by

The Biden Administration and His Fellow Democrats Aren’t Revealing All the Numbers Surrounding the Border Crisis (Guest: Michael Letts)

by

The law enforcement veteran discusses a report that suggests the migrant situation is far worse than expected.

U.S. Bases Are On High Alter For a Potential Terrorist Attack In Europe (Guest: Michael Letts)

An official … Read more

Michael Letts: More Officers Have Been Shot This Year Than In All of 2023 – and That Number Set a Record As Well

by

The law enforcement veteran discusses his recent report, in which he discussed the increase of violent attacks on police officers. These days, police officers know they face more risk than ever before.

Police Budgets Are So Bad That Some Districts Are Using Drones In Place of Police Officers (Guest: Michael Letts)

by

The law enforcement veteran explains why more money is needed for actual officers, instead of tech that may not resolve the problem.

But now it’s leaving a lasting effect, with thousands of officers quitting their jobs and some … Read more

How many of the 500,000 newly ‘legalized’ US ‘citizens’ will vote this November? (By Michael Letts)

by

(Originally published in American Thinker.) I call them newly-minted Democrats. Is that a fair characterization? You think I’m exaggerating or generalizing? Think about it. What, are they going to vote for Trump? How is this legal? And if this executive action is not stopped, what would stop Biden and the Democrats from nationalizing every citizen of Mexico and making them citizens or dual citizens of the United States? Where does the rule of law end … Read more

President Biden Giving Tyler Cherry a Promotion Without Addressing His Tweets From the Past Is a Big Mistake (Guest: Michael Letts)

by

The law enforcement veteran discusses the promotion of the associate communications director, especially considering his vile posts against police.

We Can’t Ignore Deadly Attacks on Police Any Longer (By Michael Letts)

by

(Originally published in NewsMax.) I don’t think I’ll ever fully understand why some people feel the need to ambush and even kill police officers.

In Surprise to No One, ACLU Sues Biden Over Immigration Executive Action (Guest: Michael Letts)

by

The American Civil Liberties Union, as expect, filed a lawsuit in federal court challenging Biden’s recent executive action that allegedly will slow illegal immigration.

Another deadly police ambush (By Michael Letts)

Connecticut Council Refuses To Tribute Fallen State Trooper With Thin Blue Line Flag (Guest: Michael Letts)

by

In a 5-3 state vote, the town council refused to fly the flag, noting that it was “antagonistic” and had “white supremacist” ties. … Read more

In an Effort To Meet Climate Goals, Gov. Gavin Newsom Suggests California Cuts Police and Prison Budgets (Guest: Michael Letts)
