DNC shake-up, as Tom Perez puts entire staff on chopping block

To say the Democratic National Committee is going through a staff shake-up would be an understatement -- more like a house cleaning. Sorry, Dems, it's not enough. Might I suggest a "Do Not Burn Police Cars" policy? Published March 29, 2017

Rep. Maxine Waters, who's been heading up the call to impeach President Donald Trump for weeks, now has a new way of patting the anti-administration movement on the head and cajoling them along: by telling them they're true patriots.

Devin Nunes tarred as criminal in astonishing Democrat attack

A California Democrat, Rep. Eric Swalwell, who also serves on the House Intelligence Committee -- there's an oxymoron for ya -- called for his chairman, Republican Rep. Devin Nunes to step down, saying his interactions with the White House seem a "cover up." A "cover up" for what, exactly? As Swalwell suggested: for criminal behavior. That's an astonishing claim.

AP’s hope-and-prayer hit at North Carolina bathroom bill

What the estimate is based on is the hope and prayer that nobody asks questions. Because under scrutiny, the numbers pretty much crumble. Published March 28, 2017

Trump’s Office of American Innovation holds promise

President Donald Trump will announce Monday the formation of a new Office of American Innovation, to be headed by his son-in-law and senior adviser, Jared Kushner.
