A safe America starts with a secure America. It is beyond time to secure our border.

There are some on the Right and Left who want to exploit our current crisis by calling on Americans to surrender constitutional liberties.

The Bill of Rights is entirely compatible with protecting the safety and security of the American people.

Rather than stripping ordinary citizens of their constitutional liberties, we should have a clear strategy to utterly defeat ISIS.

In addition to protecting Americans at home, the strategy to defeat the enemy starts by calling it by it’s name: "radical Islamic terrorism"

Loretta Lynch’s ban on what she calls anti-Muslim rhetoric is already producing its chilling effect.

And it is preventing Americans from taking basic steps to protect themselves.

Our third goal must be to restore America’s leadership in the world.
