Ruling vacates Capitol rioters’ sentences, may impact Jan. 6 cases

Rep. Posey: Biden's Border Crisis Violation of Oath, Dereliction of Duty


'...On his first day in office, President Biden went to work tearing down important border security measures put in place by President Trump, sending a strong message to the world that his administration would not enforce our border laws.

In doing so, Biden paved the way for an invasion of millions of illegal immigrants on our southern border and set the stage for this dangerous and unsustainable border crisis.

It’s a reckless endangerment of the American people. President Biden and U.S. Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas must be held accountable for what they have done.

When I visited the border near Nogales, Arizona several years ago, I saw firsthand how dangerous it is. ...'

The Castle Doctrine | Exception to the duty to retreat before using deadly self-defense if a party is in YOUR home



'...restriction on self-defense is the rule to retreat. In jurisdictions that follow the rule to retreat, a party is not entitled to a defense of self-defense unless they first tried to mitigate the necessity of force by fleeing the situation, so long as retreating could be done safely. That said, in jurisdictions that follow the castle doctrine, this restriction has an exception for parties in their own home. A party in their own home does not have a duty to retreat and, therefore, is entitled to a defense of self-defense so long as the other requirements of the defense are met. The castle doctrine exists in both common law and Model Penal Code jurisdictions. [Last updated in July of 2022 by the Wex Definitions Team]...'
