Getting rid of dinner guests is a challenge for any host, but it’s even harder when your guest is leader of the free world.Former Chancellor George Osborne has revealed that the Queen once asked him to tell Barack Obama to leave a state banquet at Buckingham Palace.‘The Queen came up to me and said: “Will you tell the President it’s late and I want to go to bed,” ’ Osborne recalled to fellow alumni of St Paul’s school. ‘Barack Obama was having a great time, kind of knocking back vodka martinis with his mates, and I was, like: “Oh, my God, I’m going to be the person

Former Vice President Mike Pence says he knows he did "the right thing" on Jan. 6 in certifying the 2020 election and ignoring the requests from then-President Donald Trump to overturn the Electoral College results."I know in my heart of hearts that on that day, we did our duty, under the Constitution," Pence said in an interview with the Christian Broadcasting Network that was released a few days ago. "I don't know if President Trump and I will ever see eye to eye on that day. Or that many of our most ardent supporters will agree with my decision that day. But I know I did the right thing."

We write a lot here about the rambling incoherence and odd staring often displayed by President Biden during scripted press conferences and other public appearances he makes where his handlers frequently intervene in bizarre ways and sometimes even upstage him.And while that’s obviously very concerning to many Americans when one considers the fact that he is the leader of the free world, it’s equally worrying when it comes from the second person in the presidential line of succession – House Speaker Nancy Pelosi.Pelosi has had her share of moments in front of the cameras that have caused people to do double takes out of either concern or outright shock, but
Jill Biden’s Rocky Horror Christmas Show
14 replies
What a difference a year makes—especially when there is a president in exile. Those who publicly criticized the elegant Melania Trump for her White House Christmas decorations now owe her an abject apology. Because, make no mistake, the White House decorations this year are underwhelming to say the least. The entire process apparently took only a week to assemble, and it shows. In many instances, the rooms are haphazardly outfitted. In some instances, it is not even clear the decorations celebrate Christmas. The theme this year, allegedly, is “Gifts from the Heart” and “small acts of kindness.”

Biden’s Green New Deal = China First

The Biden Plan to Squeeze the Middle Class. In a December 1 tweet, Sen. Mike Braun (R-IN) got right to the point: A year ago America was energy independent. Now gas prices have skyrocketed, with Hoosiers paying 68% more at the pump compared to this day last year. High energy costs hurt everyone and are a direct result of the mindless decisions made by Joe Biden. Nothing to argue with here, except for one thing: Maybe the Biden administration’s decisions were not “mindless.” Maybe they’re just the opposite: Maybe they’re all part of a plan—a plan, as Joe Biden said in 2020, to “fundamentally transform

Donald Trump's love affair with fast food carried on even when he was hospitalized with COVID-19 as the then-president ordered McDonald's to be brought to his room at Walter Reed Hospital, according to an upcoming book by his former chief of staff. In The Chief's Chief, Mark Meadows writes Trump didn't seemingly lose his sense of taste, as some COVID sufferers have reported, when he demanded takeout during his October 2020 hospital stay. 'They had to eat with face shields on at the doctor's orders, which didn't thrill any of them,' the book, Meadows writes in the book, which comes out Tuesday.

News Busters reports:WashPost’s Dana Milbank Beclowns Himself: Press Rougher on Biden Than Trump!!!Washington Post columnist Dana Milbank wrote a column that was so slavishly pro-Biden that it was retweeted by Biden’s chief of staff Ron Klain. The preposterous title was “The media treats Biden as badly as — or worse than — Trump. Here’s proof.”

CNN fires Chris Cuomo
44 replies
New York CNN said Saturday that anchor Chris Cuomo has been "terminated" by the network, "effective immediately."
The announcement came after an outside law firm was retained to review information about exactly how Cuomo aided his brother, former New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo, when the then-governor was accused of sexual harassment.
CNN said in a statement: "Chris Cuomo was suspended earlier this week pending further evaluation of new information that came to light about his involvement with his brother's defense. We retained a respected law firm to conduct the review, and have terminated him, effective immediately."
"While in the process of that review, additional information has come to light,"
On Saturday, Chris Cuomo was fired from CNN “effective immediately.”
The decision was unexpected by the many people who figured that the network that kept Jeffrey Toobin despite his… umm… scandal… would ultimately refuse to part ways with its apparent top anchor.
But, apparently, there was more to this story.
Cuomo was suspended after text messages released by the New York attorney general’s office showed Cuomo was actively assisting with his brother’s response to the allegations of sexual misconduct against him and exploiting his media connections to dig up dirt on Andrew’s accusers.
But, according to the statement, during the review, “additional information
For nearly a year the Biden “presidency” -- whoever they are -- has subjected the United States to a destructive revolutionary agenda of unprecedented scope and virulence, all of it arising out of an irrational civilizational death wish for which there is no historical parallel.
No more than a small minority of Americans knowingly voted for this.(snip) the only question worth asking is how, if at all, a counterrevolution of sanity can be mounted and succeed.
Surprisingly, there is real hope. That hope lies in two stubborn centers of resistance that remain: nearly 50% of the American electorate, judging by the 2016 and 2020 elections; and the Republican Party.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) issued a statement Wednesday on the Supreme Court case Dobbs vs. Jackson Women’s Health Organization, where she said the Court has the responsibility to “honor the Constitution” and uphold abortion rights.
The Dobbs case, as I’ve been covering, surrounds the constitutionality of a 15-week abortion ban in Mississippi. Dobbs is the first case in decades with the potential to overturn landmark cases Roe v. Wade and Planned Parenthood v. Casey, which gave women the right to an abortion.
In a statement shared via Twitter,
They’re everywhere, they’re everywhere! “They” being “white supremacists,” of course. Not that we didn’t already know MSNBC’s Joy Reid is without question the most bitterly race-obsessed individual in the “news media” — if not on the planet — but almost literally, every time this race hustler opens her silly mouth to spew even more racially-divisive nonsense, she ups her pathetic game. A difficult task, one might assume, which Reid continues to pull off like a piece of cake. Here’s what Reid said in response to the Kyle Rittenhouse verdict, as transcribed by The Blaze: “[T]his is what we expected to

How Much Longer for COVID Scare Tactics?

So, here we are again: A new COVID variant has appeared on the world stage, this one called 'omicron,' supposedly originating in South Africa. It’s already been detected in Europe and Canada, and the inestimable Dr. Anthony Fauci opines it’s a matter of “when” not “if” it’s a major factor here in the U.S.
With Pavlovian predictability, the Democrats have shifted into an even higher “Vaccinate Now!” overdrive gear. This new strain is being used as the latest club with which to pummel recalcitrant vaccine resisters into shame and submission.
Awkward: Bidens late for Christmas tree

lighting, audience ordered to repeat welcoming applause 29 replies
The Bidens were on Biden time last night as they arrived at their designated spot for the National Christmas Tree lighting ceremony. They were late. They were late enough that the host of the ceremony held on The Ellipse in President’s Park south of the White House had to ask the audience to re-do their applause after the First Couple’s introduction.
Last night was the 99th annual National Christmas Tree lighting. Is it too much to ask that Biden’s keepers get him outside on time to flip a switch? Apparently so, and it turned out to be a moment more awkward than usual for Sleepy Joe.
