‘Anonymous’ writer a cowardly tool of the left
Anonymous, by starting as anonymous and staying anonymous, only underscores his worthlessness to any insights into President Donald Trump. Published November 27, 2019
Democrats and their tortured truths expose much
We're on the cusp of a real constitutional crisis that's pitting the vicious left against a nation of outraged citizens who know full well the partisans in the Democratic Party are only in it to win it, rather than in it to humbly serve. Published November 26, 2019
Lindsey Graham is quite right to investigate the Bidens, Burisma
Sen. Lindsey Graham, in a series of tweets, said Congress ought to quit the impeachment madness and take a deeper look at Joe Biden and Hunter Biden and Ukrainian energy company Burisma Holdings and so forth and so on -- and he's right. If the Bidens had "Rs" next to their names, not "Ds," the media would be all over this matter. Published November 26, 2019
‘Cult of Trump’ infects minds of left
The left has a new anti-Donald Trump trend, and it's one that goes like this: If you support this president, if you regard this president through any other lens than "impeach, impeach, impeach" -- well then, that means you're part of a cult. Of all the left's deceptive, deceiving, lying-lip, anti-Trump tries, this one has to be the funniest. Published November 26, 2019
Impeachment hearings leave Americans hungry for national healing
Forty-five percent of independents said in a survey conducted this week by Emerson College that they're against impeachment of this president -- and that's after a Marquette University poll a conducted couple days earlier found 53 percent of Wisconsin voters want Donald Trump to stay. The takeaway? Voters want the nation to heal. Published November 23, 2019
Joe Biden, the punch line that keeps on giving
Joe Biden just told an MSNBC-watching audience that men shouldn't ever "raise a hand to a woman in anger" -- except when he has to, when it's "self-defense." And wait for it, wait for it: That wasn't even Biden's worst debate-related moment. Published November 21, 2019
Gordon Sondland takeaway: Impeach, I ‘presume’
Gordon Sondland, U.S. ambassador to the European Union, entered the House intelligence committee hearing on impeachment as the Democrats' best hope of bringing the hammer to President Donald Trump's head. He left atop a wave of presumption. In other words: The anticipated big bombsheller dropped a big nothingburger. Published November 21, 2019
Burisma shows double standard of Democrats
If anything concrete has come from the Democrat-fueled impeachment hearings being spearheaded by House Intelligence Chairman Adam Schiff, it's this: Witnesses acknowledge Hunter Biden's Burisma Holdings' post came in at "less than comfortable" on the old ethics scale. So why isn't Capitol Hill focused on this as an investigation? Published November 21, 2019
Ronald Reagan, the pope and ‘The Divine Plan’
This day in history in 1975, Ronald Reagan announced his run for the Republican Party's nomination for president. He lost. He didn't quit. And as history recounts, his pairing with Pope John Paul II, along with deep faith in God and belief in mission, led to the ultimate tear-down of Cold War communism. Published November 20, 2019
Impeachment fatigue a real risk for Democrats
Democrat Rep. Jeff Van Drew told a Fox News "Sunday Morning Futures" audience that his Capitol Hill colleagues were expressing "concern" about the ongoing, never-ending nature of the impeachment look-sees at President Donald Trump -- and that worse, word on the street is that "most people" are growing weary with the process.

Nancy Pelosi, meet Constitution
Speaker Nancy Pelosi, reacting to ongoing impeachment proceedings, issued a remarkably egregious demand that went like this: Mr. President, you need to prove your innocence. Can you say Fifth Amendment? Can you say due process? How about presumption of innocence -- or innocent until proven guilty? Published November 18, 2019
Rudy Giuliani: ‘Pro-Hillary’ Yovanovitch pressed Ukraine to ‘hurt Donald Trump’
Rudy Giuliani, President Donald Trump's personal attorney, said in an interview with OAN that Marie Yovanovitch -- according to five witnesses he knows -- instructed Ukraine's prosecutor general to drop legal cases that would've shown "Ukrainian collusion with Democrats to hurt Donald Trump." Published November 18, 2019
The ‘Great Disruptor’ has had a great week thanks to Adam Schiff
Three takeaways from this week's wheel of impeachment fortune: Democrats got nothing. The Deep State must be ripping mad. And President Donald Trump, the "Great Disruptor" of D.C. establishment politics, as he's been dubbed, is well on his way to being reelected in 2020. Published November 16, 2019
Adam Schiff cracking under ‘point of order’ pressure
Poor Adam Schiff. The House Intelligence Committee chairman was trying to maintain a show of law and order and professionalism and such and such -- but Reps. Jim Jordan and Elise Stefanik kept interrupting him with calls for points of order. Published November 15, 2019
Nancy Pelosi goes for slam dunk — and crashes to court
Nancy Pelosi, amid the largely laughable testimony of the diplomats, came out with her own laughable conclusion of all that hearsay testimony and said: President Trump has admitted to bribery. Who knew Pelosi, at her advanced age, could perform so many contortions? This has to be the greatest acrobatic spin in political history. Published November 15, 2019
Bernie Sanders, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, and their ridiculous Green housing goal
Sen. Bernie Sanders and Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez have joined forces and unveiled another facet of their Green New Deal that will supposedly make sure every man, woman and child has suitable housing -- the best that taxpayers can pay for, anyway. Here's a partnership of loons. Published November 14, 2019
‘Climate migrants,’ the left’s tool to pry borders wide
"Climate migrants" are defined as those individuals in the world who've suffered some sort of weather-related disaster and are, therefore, in the eyes of the left, in the minds of radicals like Sen. Bernie Sanders, are worthy of automatic entry into the United States. Well, there's a large pool of people for ya. Published November 14, 2019
Impeachment charade: Umm, I feel like Trump may have maybe said that, or meant it
All hail the big day -- the Democrats' big ah-ha, gotcha, Mr. President moment, when open hearings on Capitol Hill with key Witnesses In The Know would provide the final quid pro quo proof, leading to impeachment of Donald Trump. Or, as Ambassador Bill Taylor might painfully put it -- umm, the way I see it is I feel like the way everybody understood it is that the president may have thought about that thing, that quid pro quo thing.

Atheists threaten another praying coach and team
Well, the Freedom From Religion Foundation is at it again. Coaches and players at a Missouri high school held a after-game prayer session -- and that prompted the atheists from Wisconsin to take offense, take up pen and paper, and shoot off a warning letter to Cameron School District officials. Quit the praying -- or we'll sue. Published November 13, 2019
Kanye West’s faith and the red line for believers
Christians want to know: Is Kanye West for real with his faith, or not? That's a good question. But it's not the best question. Why not? The conversion of West -- the final determination of the to-be or not-to-be Christian leanings of the rap artist -- is ultimately a matter between West and God. The better question is: Does it truly matter? Published November 12, 2019
