Lindsey Graham is today's Republican man with the plan -- the guy who's stepping forward in the Senate to say: "I am, like, 1,000 percent with Donald Trump" on Obamacare. Smart move. He's tested the political winds of moving on from Obamacare repeal and found them lacking. Published August 1, 2017
Jeff Flake tips elitist, RINO hat with anti-Trump book
Sen. Jeff Flake, part of the emerging breed of American Republican, the one that's called Democrat, bypassed that whole mainstream media thing and forged a brand new path of blasting President Donald Trump as a subpar leader -- by writing a whole book about it.

Eric Trump said on national television in an interview on Fox News that one of his biggest wishes was for someone to start fighting for his father. He's absolutely right.

U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley sent out some strong messaging via Twitter about North Korea, telling the world of social media readers that the time of simply tough talking was nearing an end.

Chuck Schumer gets nanny tough on fast-food sandwich wraps
Sen. Chuck Schumer, New York Democrat, has found a new fight -- and fast-food wrapper is thy name. He wants the feds to investigate them. And not just fast-food wrappers. Cups and cartons, too.
