Commentary: The Realignment of Unions

Construction worker

Perhaps nothing signifies the transformation of the Republican Party into the party of the working American more than an estimated 45 percent of union households that voted for Trump in 2024. If public sector union members were excluded from the exit polling, that estimate would likely rise to a majority.

This reality puts America’s union membership at odds with union leadership, which generally remains loyal to the Democratic Party. The choice this presents union leadership in America is not subtle. They can continue to align themselves with a corporate uniparty establishment that is increasingly indifferent to the challenges facing American citizens, or they can honestly confront the consequences of establishment policies over the past 20-30 years. The implications are profound.

Biden Immigration Crisis Was a Boon for Catholic Charities, Which Raked in Billions in Grant Money

Illegal Immigrants

President Joe Biden’s border policies were a boon for private religious charities associated with the Catholic Church, which collectively received billions in grant money while helping house and resettle migrants, while a federal watchdog warned about mismanaged funds and a potential for fraud.

The funding for these humanitarian programs that came through the Departments of Health and Human Services and Homeland Security as well as the Federal Emergency Management Agency has come under renewed scrutiny by President Trump and his administration, who seek to reverse years of financial incentives for the crisis of border crossings under their predecessor.

Videos Reveal Extent of Illegal Immigrants Surging Across the Border with Biden’s CBP One Mobile App to Help Them Cross

RAV correspondent Ben Bergquam

Journalist Ben Bergquam of Real America’s Voice (RAV) took a trip to the U.S.-Mexico border recently, where he documented the surge in illegal immigrants coming across the border into the U.S. using the Biden administration’s CBP One mobile app. The app assists them with crossing the border illegally, allowing them to make appointments so a bus will drive them across instead of sneaking across, and they can then choose where they want to fly to within the U.S. 

During an interview with War Room’s Steve Bannon, Bergquam summarized the process. “There’s this entire operation — I call it the illegal alien industrial complex — where you’ve got our politicians working with United Nations, and all these NGOs working directly with the cartels in some cases, and often cases, especially in places like this — cartel-controlled territories of Mexico — working directly with them on who to send where, when to send them. So CBP One is used as a distraction. You take Border Patrol and Customs and Border Protection resources off the border to process these guys, so then they can traffic all these other guys that are riding on the beast that are coming through all these other parts of the border.”
