Republicans cannot let Democrats win on Brett Kavanaugh

Republicans simply cannot cede this Supreme Court battleground over Judge Brett Kavanaugh to Democrats. If they do, it's not just President Donald Trump who will be affected -- who will see his rightful White House authority to select judicial picks erode in the face of angry politicking. It's the country's constitutional system that will suffer. Published September 27, 2018

Kirsten Gillibrand, a hypocrite who got due process she’s denying Brett Kavanaugh

Kirsten Gillibrand, the senator at the forefront of calling for a withdrawal of Judge Brett Kavanaugh's name from Supreme Court nomination, was once herself accused of seedy ties to a sexual slave cult. She denied it. But according to the standard she's trying to stick on Kavanaugh, shouldn't Gillibrand's seat be held by another? Published September 25, 2018

Noel Francisco, D.C.’s suddenly most important man

Noel Francisco is about to become one of the most important men in Washington, D.C. Why?

Kirsten Gillibrand calls for end to Brett Kavanaugh’s nomination

Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand, Democrat from New York, has called for Brett Kavanaugh's name to be withdrawn from Supreme Court nomination. You knew this was coming. The big question was just which Democrat would take point on leading the "Pull Kavanaugh Nomination" charge. Published September 24, 2018

Christine Blasey Ford could indeed be lying

I knew two girls growing up who lied about being raped. Or, more to truth, I knew two girls growing up who said they were raped and then a couple days later, recanted. There are indeed cases where women, for whatever reasons, do make up these stories. Published September 22, 2018

Christine Blasey Ford is not the victim here — Brett Kavanaugh is

The left has been having its usual field day with truth, drumming a beat that Christine Blasey Ford is a victim, simply because she pointed a finger Judge Brett Kavanaugh's way, and therefore she has a right to remain hidden in the shadows, shielded from questioning and criticisms and prying eyes into her past because, after all -- she is the Victim. But at this point in time, it's Kavanaugh who's the victim. Published September 21, 2018

Brett Kavanaugh nomination moves into bizarro male-bashing land

The Supreme Court nomination of Judge Brett Kavanaugh has moved out of the field of nomination and into the bizarro field of male-bashing.

Brett Kavanaugh should stay the course, stand strong

Judge Brett Kavanaugh's Supreme Court hearings have devolved into a cesspool of she-said, her-attorney-said accusations -- and from that, Democrats have run roughshod, demanding a postponement and wait for it, wait for it, killing of the entire nomination. Published September 19, 2018

Karen Monahan, Keith Ellison accuser, sends Democrats much-needed smackdown

The Democrats may think they're about to sink their shark teeth deep into Supreme Court nominee Judge Brett Kavanaugh, via an out-of-left-field sexual assault allegation from a woman, Christine Blasey Ford, touting a decades-old high school party story. But here's a "hey you guys" moment from none other than the woman who accused Keith Ellison of -- get this -- domestic abuse. And who has supporting statements and medical records to prove it.

Eric Holder came forward at a recent Human Rights Campaign dinner to say, shock of all shocks, President Donald Trump is a fear-mongering disaster who's busily selling so-called patriotic lines to like-minded bigots as part of a desperate political ploy to keep ahold of his White House power.

Brett Kavanaugh getting raked over high school coals

Psychology’s shameless political shenanigans

Gina Loudon -- author of a new book that she said on Fox News would show with "science and real data and true psychological theory" why Donald Trump is one of the most "sound-minded" presidents of all time -- has unleashed a hornet's nest of liberal outcry, most notably from the therapists of the nation.
