After telling us he was tanned, rested, and ready for 2020, so to speak, Democratic frontrunner Joe Biden seems to have rolled back over and gone back to sleep. Seriously, he's showing up to campaign events in a state of somnolence. Patriot Retort observed this: Well, now I think I understand why No-Show Joe Biden didn't turn up in Iowa for all the Gay Pride events this past weekend. It's really difficult to march in a Pride Parade when your primary ambulatory mode is sleepwalking.

New York City underwater? Gas over $9 a gallon? A carton of milk costs almost $13? Remember when that happened on June 12, 2015? No? This was the wildly-inaccurate world of 2015 predicted by ABC News 11 years ago this week.
The Department of Education is going after U.S universities over supposed ties to foreign governments, after some allegedly took huge quantities of foreign cash and hid it from regulators. At the top of the list are Georgetown University and Texas A&M, which have taken hundreds of millions of dollars from the government of Qatar, a middle eastern nation with suspected links to international terrorism. Both schools received letters from the Department of Education Thursday saying they should have disclosed that funding but their filings “may not fully capture” the activity, the Associated Press reported.
Friday must have been one confusing day for Democrats.The President of the United States had the good fortune to be born on Flag Day, June 14, which put the Democrats in a bit of a bind. As millions of Americans honored Old Glory, as well as the 45th President on that day, what were the Democrats to do? They may have felt compelled to honor one or the other just to avoid completely discrediting themselves, yet they clearly despise both Donald Trump and the American history and traditions symbolized by the Stars and Stripes.You’d think it would be a no-brainer. It’s not as though Democrats have been terribly secretive

Fatherhood is the job that pays the least in monetary terms and the most in benefit to the world, along with motherhood. When a man chooses to become a father, biologically or with his heart, he makes a commitment that is lifelong and its impact is to be felt longer than his own life, into the future of his children, grandchildren, and yes, even great grandchildren.Through his steadfast presence, his wisdom (most of it on the job, but maybe lots of it gained from his own father), his protection, his teaching, his prayers, sacrifice, love, discipline, encouragement and pride
An oceanfront mansion that once belonged to Broadway producer Terry Allen Kramer has been put on contract to sell for more than $100million, making it the most expensive single-home sale in Palm Beach.And the buyer will have some some high-profile neighbors, being just half a mile from President Donald Trump's 'Winter White House' estate at Mar-a-Lago. The sale is expected to be a trade deal between $110million and $120million. The hefty price tag would beat the current record - the $95million which Russian billionaire Dmitry Rybolovlev spent on another Donald Trump mansion to in 2008. Kramer paid $4million for the property in 1993,

Sen. Bill Cassidy (R-LA) and other Senate Republicans proposed Sunday to block leftist states from forcing Americans to subsidize programs that expand benefits to illegal immigrants.Sens. Cassidy, John Barrasso (R-WY), Marsha Blackburn (R-TN), Cindy Hyde-Smith (R-MS), Jim Inhofe (R-OK), David Perdue (R-GA), and Roger Wicker (R-MS) introduced the Protect Medicaid Act (S. 131) to ensure that leftist states cannot bilk Medicaid to subsidize programs that expand Medicaid benefits to illegal immigrants.

When Normality Became Abnormal

Donald Trump is many things. But one thing he is not is a defender of the 2009-2016 status quo and accepted progressive convention. Since 2017, everything has been in flux. Lots of past conventional assumptions of the Obama-Clinton-Romney-Bush generation were as unquestioned as they were suspect. No longer.Everyone knew the Iran deal was a way for the mullahs to buy time and hoard their oil profits, to purchase or steal nuclear technology, to feign moderation, and to trade some hostages for millions in terrorist-seeding cash, and then in a few years spring an announcement that it had the bomb.No one wished to say that. Trump did. .

I’m not going to be buying Jim Acosta’s new book. I’ve already been snookered by a slick carnival barker once, back when I was a young man at the Feast of San Gennaro. No need to pay money twice for the same old sleight of hand.The grifter’s trick is to show you one thing while making you think you’re seeing another. Acosta is pitching a book called “The Enemy of the People” and he wants you to think he is “the people.” He isn’t. Is he “The Enemy of the People”? That’s giving him too much credit, but he is the enemy of the truth.

A Supreme Court ruling in the case of an Alabama man who pleaded guilty to a gun charge could have major implications for the unrelated white-collar case against former Trump campaign manager Paul Manafort in New York -- by keeping him exposed to another set of charges, even if he ultimately wins a presidential pardon. At issue in the Alabama dispute was whether the "dual sovereignty doctrine" -- which allows a person to face both state and federal charges for the same offense -- violates the Fifth Amendment's Double Jeopardy Clause. On Monday, the Supreme Court ruled it does not. "Although the dual-sovereignty rule is often dubbed an 'exception'

When they are informed that in fact Biden said all of the "pretty racist" comments, the students express genuine surprise and say the revelation will likely impact their support for the former vice president.

The Democratic Party “has become more radical, more dangerous, and more unhinged than at any point in the modern history of our country,” President Trump said on Tuesday night.In a no-holds-barred speech in Orlando, Florida kicking off his re-election campaign, Trump lashed out at the Democratic Party, hitting it particularly hard on the issue of border security.“No matter what label they use, a vote for any Democrat in 2020 is a vote for the rise of radical socialism and the destruction of the American dream,” he told the packed 20,000-seat Amway Center, where according to local media some supporters had been lining up since Monday morning.

Those with big egos tend to be overly sensitive to criticism, and well, judging by the way the folks at CNN reacted Tuesday evening to President Donald Trump’s presidential election re-launch, they must have egos bigger than life itself.As the crowd began chanting “CNN sucks” and the president panned the media for their poor ratings, the left-wing network quickly cut away from the rally to begin its daily airing of grievances. Some reports suggest that MSNBC also cut away from the event. Our President is speaking In Florida, but you can’t watch it on CNN or MSNBC.

Connie Schultz, a Pulitzer Prize-winning liberal journalist married to Democratic Sen. Sherrod Brown, slammed Joe Biden for hailing his relationships with segregationist senators as examples of “civility.” Schultz said Biden’s comments show he should not replace President Trump in the White House. “There is no punchline here, no emoji or funny meme to soften the harm of your words. That segregationist never called you ‘boy’ because you are white. If you want to boast about your relationship with a racist, you are not who we need to succeed the racist in the White House,” she tweeted Wednesday.
WASHINGTON — House Speaker Nancy Pelosi brushed off comments made by Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez equating border facilities for migrants to “concentration camps” by saying she wasn’t “up to date” on what the New York freshman said. “These members of Congress, they come to represent their districts and their point of view and they take responsibility for the statements that they make,” Pelosi told reporters at a Christian Science Monitor breakfast when asked specifically about AOC’s comments and whether the speaker had talked to her young members about the “power of their words.” “I’m not up to date with her most recent remarks,” Pelosi added.

Thousands of President Trump's supporters reveled in the raucous start to his 2020 reelection campaign last night. But around 150 folks in and around Orlando's Amway Center weren't having very much fun at all.Namely, the agents and officers of the U.S. Secret Service. Because for those public servants and their compatriots across the nation, two factors will make the 2020 campaign a particular protective challenge: scale and emotion.The scale issue is already clear. At least 24 Democrats are presently competing to be their party's nominee. While some will inevitably drop out long before next summer's Democratic convention, a good number will remain in the race at least

MSNBC’s Kasie Hunt misidentified Joe Biden’s Democrat segregationist pals on Wednesday as Republicans.While teasing a segment about the uproar over the former vice president bragging about being able to do business with racist segregationists, Hunt, a far-left activist and MSNBC hostess, spread this fake news: Still to come, Joe Biden references his relationships with two former Republican colleagues at an event in New York City.

The president is rejecting a strategy of trying to focus on reaching out to swing voters through calculated appeals that draw majority support. Instead, he is doubling down on his plan to fire up his most loyal supporters with attacks on Democrats, the Russia probe, and would-be illegal immigrants.

The liberal media went nuts. The Democrats had what was to be their 10,000thmeltdown over something President Trump did or said. In this case, it would his remarks about accepting dirt on his opponent from foreign sources, which he said during an interview with ABC News’ George Stephanopoulos, a former Clinton political operative. Trump said it’s called opposition research. This isn’t anything new. It’s amazing, the gaslighting effort the Left is deploying on this front. It’s not shocking because…Hillary Clinton did it.

President Donald Trump released a hilarious video on his Twitter account on Friday that essentially declared himself to be president forever, in what is a giant troll aimed at the media and the Democratic Party.

Jerry Nadler is the Chairman of the House Judiciary Committee and he’s currently leading what can only be described as a clown show of an investigation involving the President and his associates. After saying the Mueller report would be the final word, he and other Democrats have decided they want a do-over, which means dragging everyone who’s already been interviewed multiple times back in front of Congress for no real reason whatsoever. This had Nadler waddling into yet another “hearing,” this time with former Trump associate Hope Hicks being grilled. And when I say waddled, I mean that quite literally.(Tweet)

A federally funded program at Harvard University is offering “humanized mice” made with organs taken from aborted babies for prices ranging from $800 to $1,272, according to the fee schedule Harvard has published online. This program, which has received $926,682 in grants from the National Institutes of Health over the past 5 years, creates a demand for tissue—including livers and thymuses--taken from aborted babies. Its current grant of $168,320 was awarded for a one-year period that started on Aug. 1, 2018 and will end on July 31, 2019. On May 15, CNSNews.com asked NIH and the Department of Health and Services: “
The Obamas are soaking up everything France has to offer — including a meetup with famous rock stars. Barack and his wife Michelle were joined by their daughters Malia and Sasha while enjoying a lunch date with U2's Bono and The Edge on Friday afternoon, just one day after it was reported their next vacation stop is George and Amal Clooney's Italian villa on Lake Como. The 57-year-old former president and his family were seen strolling through the medieval city of Èze as they made their way to the two-Michelin-starred restaurant La Chèvre d'Or.

You enter the Kennedy Space Centre through a Rocket Garden that features rockets from the early manned space programmes, including the Mercury-Redstone.However, this 144,000-acre site is no museum of the past, but the beating heart of a revitalised space business that has attracted massive investment in recent years, from the likes of billionaires Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos. Rocket launches happen at a rate of up to four a month and, when Musk's Falcon Heavy, the world's most powerful operational rocket, made its debut by launching a Tesla Roadster into orbit in February last year, no fewer than 115,000 people descended on Florida's Cape Canaveral.

has told opposite stories about his
advice on Osama bin Laden raid replies
Joe Biden has offered two starkly different and contradictory accounts of his role in the 2011 raid that killed Osama bin Laden.After initially saying that he opposed the operation and told President Barack Obama not to do it, the 2020 Democratic front-runner changed his account to say he hedged in front of other official but privately told Obama to go ahead. Every other account of the decision-making process indicates that the former vice president's first version was true and his later accounts were not. In 2012, he said his advice was, 'Don’t go.' By 2015, he had settled on saying he'd privately told Obama to 'go.'
Former Vice President Joe Biden faced South Carolina voters for the first time since he spoke about working with virulent segregationist lawmakers while serving in the Senate for decades – and called for the party to back whoever wins the nomination.Biden took the stage immediately before Cory Booker at a South Carolina fish fry Friday night – and each called for party unity after engaging in the sharpest intra-party spat of the campaign. 'Folks I'm here to tell you I hope to be your nominee,' Biden told the crowd. 'Whomever the Democratic nominee is, we have to stay together and elect a Democrat president
Six Democrats took an all-expenses paid trip paid for by the government of Qatar in December, but two of them did not disclose it, annual ethics forms reveal.Democratic Reps. Donald Norcross of New Jersey and Jim Himes of Connecticut did not report taking the trip to Doha, Qatar, on their mandatory disclosure forms, but Buzzfeed said they were there at the elaborate Doha Forum gathering in December. The congressmen hold sensitive positions that make them targets of influence for Qatar, a wealthy Arab nation. Himes is on the House Permanent Select Committee On Intelligence and is chair of its Strategic Technologies and Advanced Research subcommittee.
Senator Cory Booker, one of many Democratic hopefuls for 2020 election, explained his vision of the most relevant qualifications one needs to accumulate in order to get on the presidential ticket. When answering to MSNBC's Lawrence O'Donnell question about possibly being Joe Biden's running mate, Booker said: "I do not think there should be two men on a ticket[.] ... [W]e should have tickets that have racial and gender diversity in them."By any means, this is a huge revelation. Finally, here comes the universal quick fix for a big variety of problems this country faces. There is no need for political, diplomatic, or administrative proficiency,
Anonymous tales of sex, vengeance, laziness, and criminal behavior are swirling in Washington as President Trump considers who to name his next White House press secretary. The spread of negative stories about contenders, many provably false, others unprovable, demonstrates the risk of Trump taking his time to make a selection, leaving his candidates exposed to attacks from rivals. A fear of some is that Trump himself could hear a rumor and believe it without checking whether it was true.One experienced government spokesperson was said to exhibit a poor work ethic and incompetence, except when news cameras appeared.
A congressional hearing was held on a bill to study reparations for blacks as payback for slavery. Reparations is simply another worm Democrat presidential candidates will put on the hook of their fishing rods to catch black votes. I am a black man who is proud, grateful, and understands how blessed I am to be born an American. My response to the Democrats' reparations scam is, “Please stop!”. Please stop telling black Americans that we are crippled, inferior and are helpless children who can only succeed via government handouts, lowered standards and special concessions. Just stop it!

Joe Biden’s history of dubious stances on racially charged issues came back to haunt him again Friday with the disclosure of old letters he wrote to a racist Southern senator thanking him for helping him to fight forced school busing. “I want you to know that I very much appreciate your help during this week’s Committee meeting in attempting to bring my anti-busing legislation to a vote,” Biden wrote on June 30, 1977, to Sen. James Eastland, the Washington Post reported.Eastland was a plantation owner who believed blacks were an inferior race, and forcefully fought desegregation throughout his career as a Democratic lawmaker from Mississippi.

COLUMBIA, S.C. — Democratic presidential candidate Elizabeth Warren suggested that abortion restrictions and anti-abortion politicians were motivated by a desire to return to a period when women could not participate in the workforce."It is not 1952," the Massachusetts senator said on Saturday about her work in the upper chamber to expand abortion rights. "You're not going to lock women back in the kitchen. You are not going to tell us what to do."Warren was speaking at the "We Decide" forum hosted by Planned Parenthood's political arm, an event coinciding with the state Democratic convention. She has promised that if elected president she would have Congress pass a bill into law
The leaders of the Democrat Party could care less about 150 Iranian lives. They could care even less about the fate of our country. Everything, everyday to them, is about power and how to steal it and keep it.Rather than attempting to make America a better place or keeping America great, Democrat leaders are all about power. On Friday before President Trump decided not to drop bombs on Iran for knocking down a US drone, the President met with Congressional leaders in the White House to discuss the situation.
Hispanic voters should take their fight against President Trump to the “streets,” Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-CA) suggested in a tweet Saturday. The Democrat presidential candidate spouted a series of falsehoods in a tweet posted Saturday, accusing Trump of breaking up Hispanic families and caging children just for kicks. He also accused Trump of seeking to “erase” the Hispanic population’s existence by way of a basic census citizenship question.“If you’re Hispanic, there’s nothing @realDonaldTrump won’t do to break up your family, cage your children, or erase your existence with a weaponized census,” Swalwell tweeted.“And there’s nothing we won’t do in the streets, courts, and at the ballot box to stop him.

The report gave no further detail about the content of the letter.
You can’t make this stuff up.There — in the pages not of the New York Times but rather the Wall Street Journal — was no less than the publisher of The Times, A.G. Sulzberger, as he blasted the President of the United States.And in the very first paragraph Sulzberger misled readers. Here’s the paragraph: “First it was ‘the failing New York Times.’ Then ‘fake news.’ Then ‘enemy of the people.’ President Trump’s escalating attacks on the New York Times have paralleled his broader barrage on American media. He’s gone from misrepresenting our business, to assaulting our integrity, to demonizing our journalists with a phrase that’s been used

On Saturday, former Rep. Robert Francis "Beto" O'Rourke, a candidate for the 2020 Democratic presidential nomination, harped on the old liberal canard that President Donald Trump is somehow turning America into the dystopia in The Handmaid's Tale. This time, he compared the Trump administration's policy of refusing to facilitate abortions for illegal immigrant minors to oppressive systematic rape to produce children. Speaking at the Planned Parenthood Action Fund forum "We Decide," O'Rourke made the ridiculous comparison while pandering to abortion activists in a desperate attempt to revive his faltering presidential ambitions.
Senate Republicans, eager to avert a government shutdown or automatic spending cuts, want acting White House chief of staff Mick Mulvaney pushed to the sidelines in budget negotiations with Democrats. GOP lawmakers would prefer Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin take the lead in representing the White House, as they see him being more amenable to a two-year spending deal that would also raise the debt limit. Mulvaney, on the other hand, is viewed as resistant to striking a two-year deal, which would take the prospect of another government shutdown off the table until after the 2020 election.

Once again, as is his wont, President Trump has maneuvered his opponents into a losing position on an issue of high priority to him.

The Democrats, who choose to, will now have to defend people in the country who don't obey court orders. I wonder how that's going to play with the people in their districts who

Trump’s comments in an interview on “Fox & Friends” on June 14 led to speculation among some political observers and pundits that he is considering replacing Pence. Trump has also made off-hand remarks over the past several months about remaining in office beyond a second term,

Acting U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement Director Mark Morgan confirmed Saturday that blame for the unexpected delay in the agency’s planned immigration raids partially rests with the media.“The media got a hold of some operational specifics, and they reported it,” he said to Fox News host Judge Jeanine Pirro. “It’s egregious and it puts the lives of the officers and agents at risk. The men and women at ICE are true American heroes. The president recognized that. He postponed it to protect them.” He issued the confirmation hours after President Donald Trump announced an unexpected two-week postponement of immigration raids that were originally slated to occur Sunday.

Nevertheless, Ocasio-Cortez doubled down, first claiming that she had not been referring to Nazi Germany, then drawing parallels to the U.S. internment of Japanese-Americans during the Second World War.

(Photo) “I just wanted to put it out there, it was just my view that I feel that they should be charged, Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton,” Jeff Damer, the float’s creator, told KSFY. Damer revealed there was some hesitation because he did not want to come across as racist by throwing Obama behind bars.
In Aberdeenshire, Scotland, a teen told his teacher there are only two genders.The teacher didn’t agree.As reported by the Daily Mail, the instructor had informed his class that a website which only allowed for two gender options was “old fashioned.”The 17-year-old spoke up, claiming that male and female are the only two, biologically.For taking a position that was “not inclusive,” he was kicked out of class.Later, the teacher discussed the issue with the boy privately — and the kid secretly videoed it.On the tape — which has been viewed nearly 100,000 times via YouTube —
Bookies taking bets on the 2020 presidential election are predicting a Trump-Biden race, with President Trump a 1-1 favorite to win reelection.Current wagers indicate that former Vice President Joe Biden would take the nomination and stands at a 4-1 chance to beat Trump. In a surprise, BetOnline.ag said that the odds for Sen. Bernie Sanders, long the first or second choice in the Democratic primary race, has sunk to sixth in the general election, while Sen. Elizabeth Warren is second behind Biden.“Now at even money (1/1), Trump is still the odds on favorite to win re-election in 2020.
Should a vacancy come up on the Supreme Court before the 2020 election, President Trump said he would absolutely fill the seat promptly. “Would I do that? Of course,” Trump said in an exclusive interview with The Hill when asked if he’d fill the post during campaign season.The president’s vow runs counter to what he said in 2016, when he was running for the White House. As a candidate, he opposed former President Obama’s effort to seat his nominee, Merrick Garland, before the election, backing Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell’s (R-KY) decision to block the nomination.
First lady Melania Trump announced Tuesday that top aide Stephanie Grisham has been selected to replace outgoing White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders. Trump wrote on Twitter that Grisham will also assume the role as White House communications director, a position she served in under the first lady. I can think of no better person to serve the Administration & our country. Excited to have Stephanie working for both sides of the @WhiteHouse,” she said. (Tweet)
Chants of “build the wall” broke out at Tuesday’s rollout of the Donald J. Trump for President Latino Coalition event in Miami, Florida.Vice President Mike Pence was headlining the launch of the Trump 2020 presidential campaign event when chanting broke out among what was described by New York Times Miami Bureau Chief Patricia Mazzei as a largely Cuban/Venezuelan/Nicaraguan American crowd, “Build the wall.” “We need four more years for President Donald Trump,” Pence said sparking the crowd to begin chanting those same words. It’s notable that Pence did this event in Miami on Tuesday because on Wednesday and Thursday in the same city the Democrat candidates for president
CNN’s John King took time Tuesday to note that problems at the U.S. border did not start with President Donald Trump.Democrats have criticized Trump and his administration for its immigration policies, as well as the treatment of migrants at the border. King said the U.S. faced many of the same problems under the Obama administration. “This particular issue is not new,” King said. “This has been a problem the U.S. government has had to figure out a solution to for a long time.”King then replayed an interview that former President Barack Obama did with ABC’s George Stephanopoulos, where Obama issued a warning to migrant families not to send their children
.During an appearance on Bravo’s Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen Monday night, former View co-host and left-wing conspiracy theorist Rosie O’Donnell not only defended outrageous comparisons of illegal immigration detention centers to “concentration camps,” but she claimed that there were “over 100,000” camps spread across the United States.Near the end of the show, Cohen helped promote a planned nationwide liberal protest of the Trump administration’s immigration policy, teeing up O’Donnell: “Rosie, you’re going to be doing a vigil called Lights for Liberty, July 12th, demanding an end to the detention camps.” O’Donnell launched into a fact-free rant: (Video)

On Wednesday and Thursday NBC, MSNBC, and Telemundo will host the first Democratic primary debates. If they are to match what their colleagues did with Republican candidates in 2015, they should ask questions designed to humiliate, badger and paint them as not ready for prime time, cartoonish, out-of-touch extremists. NBC/MSNBC/Telemundo did not host a GOP debate in 2015, so we looked at the October 28, 2015 CNBC debate (both the prime time event and the early evening undercard forum). All four networks are owned by NBCUniversal, and their correspondents often appear on their sister networks' news programs. Our review shows the moderators l
Joe Biden once described himself as "the poorest man in Congress" — but all that's changing, fast.The career politician had a nice eight-year run: He lived in a mansion in Washington, D.C. (the Naval Observatory, official residence of the vice president), where he enjoyed the services of a full-time staff, complete with chef. Of course, he didn't have to pay any rent on the 9,000-square-foot house.During that time, he pulled in a salary of $230,700, which put him in the 97th percentile, according to this website. And don't forget, while in office, he hardly spent a penny on anything (he even got his own plane, Air Force Two).
A group of 9/11 first responders praised Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell after meeting with him to discuss the bill that would permanently fund the 9/11 Victim Compensation Fund."Mitch McConnell works for us ... and today Mitch McConnell promised to work for us and I'm going to take him for his word," first responder John Feal told reporters after the meeting, saying he is not concerned about McConnell going back on his word because "we challenged his humanity, and he passed."Feal said his past meetings in 2010 and 2015 with McConnell were more contentious and emotional than the one on Tuesday.
Ken Cuccinelli, the new leader of the agency that processes asylum cases, is moving to curtail work permits for people whose asylum claims are pending.Cuccinelli, installed just two weeks ago as acting director of the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services to the applause of immigration hawks, is also stepping up the process of weeding out "fraudulent" asylum applicants.The vow to quickly adopt new regulations indicates an intent to break from former agency Director L. Francis Cissna, whom White House hardliners accused of doing little as Central American asylum cases surged this year.
Despite the boycott of filming in Georgia launched by Hollywood liberals angry over the state's new pro-life "Heartbeat" law, legendary actor/director Clint Eastwood will be making his latest movie, "The Battle of Richard Jewell," in Atlanta this summer, reported NBC Charlotte and other media.
"Clint Eastwood will perform new film in Georgia despite abortion bill boycott," tweeted NBC Charlotte on June 25. The movie is about Richard Jewell, a police officer and security guard who discovered a bomb at the 1996 Summer Olympics in Atlanta, Ga., and saved countless lives. Jewell was initially hailed as a hero and then was viewed as a suspect.
Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) on Tuesday grilled Google UX Director Maggie Stanphill about Project Veritas' recent investigation into the tech company's desire to stifle conservatives. A whistleblower stepped forward to make people aware of Google's plans to affect the outcome of the 2020 elections and “prevent” the next “Trump situation.”The video features Google's Head of Responsible Innovation, Jen Gennai, talking about those very moves. According to Project Veritas, Gennai's department "monitors and evaluates the responsible implementation of Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies."“
U.S. Secret Service took an employee of a Chicago restaurant into custody Tuesday evening after she spit on President Donald Trump’s son Eric Trump, the president’s son told Breitbart News.“It was purely a disgusting act by somebody who clearly has emotional problems,” Eric Trump told Breitbart News when reached by phone late Tuesday evening. “For a party that preaches tolerance, this once again demonstrates they have very little civility. When somebody is sick enough to resort to spitting on someone, it just emphasizes a sickness and desperation and the fact that we’re winning.”

This presidential election, if Democrats have their way, will be about the divide between the "rich" and the "poor," the exploiters and the exploited, the powerful and the powerless — the whole familiar and failed idea that Americans are divided by classes and that the champions of the poor are always right.There is a vast chasm in America today — that is true enough — but America is not divided by class, but rather by geography, by physical proximity to power. The real problem in America is not capitalism, but capitolism, the limitless unchecked power in Washington and the rest of the Beltway (that tiny sliver of America
A car dealership in a rural Alabama town is tapping into some of the locals' passions for a special Fourth of July promotion.Chatom Ford, a dealership in Chatom, Alabama, is running a “God, Guns and Freedom” promotion that promises a Bible, a 12-gauge shotgun and an American flag to anyone who buys a car between the start of the promotion and July 31. The dealership released a Facebook video that features Koby Palmer, a general sales manager, talking about the promotion. It’s been viewed nearly 14,000 times as of Tuesday night. “I guess it went viral, as the kids say,” Palmer, 29, told USA TODAY.
Declaring “I love this president,” former acting ICE Director Thomas Homan, President Trump’s reluctant pick for a new “border czar” position, indicated that he’s open to accepting the first-ever job. “I will never say never,” said Homan at a morning conference hosted by the Center for Immigration Studies. Noting that he worked for five presidents, he added, “This president has done more to secure this border than any president.” Trump recently surprised even his closest aides when he said in a Fox interview that he wanted Homan to be his czar.
Senate legislation to curb unexpected high medical costs for patients moved ahead 20-3 without the support of presidential hopefuls Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders, who voted against the measure by proxy because they were preparing for the Democratic debates in Miami.The Senate Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions Committee advanced the Lower Health Care Costs Act Wednesday, putting it on track to hit President Trump's desk ahead of the August recess. The only other senator to vote against the bill was Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., who said he didn't think it would work. The vote came after more than a year of bipartisan efforts from the HELP Committee.
The Alinea Group, owners of the high-end Chicago cocktail lounge where President Donald Trump’s son, Eric Trump, was spat on by an employee, has been put on leave.
Trump confirmed to Breitbart News that the U.S. Secret Service took an employee of The Aviary into custody following the incident. In a telephone interview with Washington editor Matthew Boyle, Trump said the ordeal was “purely a disgusting act by somebody who clearly has emotional problems.”“For a party that preaches tolerance, this once again demonstrates they have very little civility,” the president’s son continued.
Ninety-nine years ago, Democrat Sen. John Walter Smith of Maryland provided $50 of his own — not government — money to help erect a cross in his home state.He was responding to a request from Mrs. Martin Redman, a mother who had lost her son in World War I.To honor him and the 48 other men from Prince George's County who had lost their lives in the war, she had joined the Prince George's Memorial Committee, whose goal was to erect a memorial not far from the Maryland border with the District of Columbia.

This week on The New York Times’ “The Argument,” podcast, 2020 presidential hopeful Sen. Cory Booker (D-NJ) said American capitalism is “perverted.”Booker said, “The head of AEI, a guy named Brooks, talks about this fetishization of capitalism as an end unto itself and forgetting that it is a theory to get us to the higher ideal of more shared growth, better distribution of opportunity and resources. And we have so perverted the ideal of capitalism that now we tolerate policies that are allowing a new era of monopolization,
It could get nasty tonight and tomorrow when NBC’s moderators bring up the topic of Donald Trump during the Democratic candidates debate. If recent history is a guide expect the moderators to ask questions that push the candidates to criticize Trump and his administration’s policies while treating some candidates – like Bernie Sanders – as heroes. The selected team of moderators (Today show co-anchor Savannah Guthrie, NBC Nightly News anchor Lester Holt, Meet the Press host Chuck Todd, MSNBC host Rachel Maddow and Telemundo anchor Jose Diaz Balart) have exhibited open hostility to Trump and his supporters and their conservative positions since Trump announced his candidacy in 2015.
President Trump on Wednesday took questions from reporters from the South Lawn of the White House as he was preparing to depart for the G20 Summit in Osaka, Japan. A Russia-obsessed liberal reporter asked President Trump whether he plans on bringing up 2020 election meddling with Russian President Vladimir Putin.This reporter had the gall to ask about the non existent Russian meddling in our elections just days after James O’Keefe exposed that Google was working to prevent a “Trump situation.”Google and big tech are clearly meddling in US elections yet this reporter asked

Attorney General William Barr took to the bagpipes at the Justice Department Wednesday to entertain the assembled guests with his ability to master the Scottish instrument. Barr, who is a longtime piper, played ‘Scotland the Brave’ alongside the pipes and drums of the NYPD Emerald Society band, which performed just before the attorney general gave his opening remarks in Washington, DC. The traditional highland display took place at the U.S. Attorneys’ National Conference at the Justice Department’s headquarters, Barr revealing the last time he played the instrument was in December at his youngest daughter’s wedding,
MIAMI -- The Trump campaign and Republican National Committee are ramping up an “aggressive” rapid response effort both nationally and locally for the Democratic debates, with a war room locked and loaded with live tweeters, real-time fact-checkers, and new hashtags in an effort to maintain momentum for Trump 2020. As the first group of Democratic candidates takes the debate stage Wednesday night, RNC and Trump campaign officials will be hunkered down in their operation center out of a hotel in downtown Miami.

President Donald Trump's initial reaction to the first 2020 Democratic presidential debate: "BORING!"The presidential tweet landed as candidates on the debate stage in Miami were asked about the crisis at the southern U.S. border involving migrant children.The tweet came minutes after Trump, who had deplaned from Air Force One in Alaska en route to Japan, greeted U.S. troops there, telling them he chose to speak to them instead of watching the debate.The president, who is traveling to Osaka for a G20 meeting, said the troops are "so much smarter than them," referring to the la
By the half-way point of the first Democratic presidential debate, three candidates and one moderator had spoken in Spanish, some attempts more fluent than others.The bilingual gambits began with former Texas Rep. Beto O’Rourke, who for his first question began by speaking his second language..O'Rourke, 46, was responding to a question about whether he would support a marginal individual 70% tax rate on highest earners. He responded in Spanish translated to: “We need to include everyone in the success of this economy. But, if we want to do this, we have to include everyone in our democracy. Every voter needs representation, and every voice must be listened to.”
Viewers of the first Democrat debate expressed confusion over who some of the Democrat candidates even were, with more than 20 candidates vying to become the Democrat nominee.Featured in Wednesday debates were many of the lesser known candidates, including former Maryland Rep. John Delaney, Washington Gov. Jay Inslee, and Ohio Rep. Tim Ryan. Most of the confusion centered on those three.Some viewers mocked confusion over Delaney, although he was the first Democrat to join the race:
Immigration politics exploded to the front-burner of the Democratic primary process on Wednesday as presidential hopefuls took turns blasting President Trump in the wake of the deaths of a Salvadoran man and his two-year-old daughter, drowned trying to cross the Rio Grande.'It's heartbreaking. It should also p**s us all off,' said former Housing and Urban Development Secretary Julián Castro during the first primary debate of the 2020 election season.Castro called for a change in federal law that would no longer 'criminalize desperation' by reclassifying border-jumping as a civil infraction instead of a crime.
MIAMI — Rep. Tulsi Gabbard was circumspect on the sidelines of the first Democratic National Committee debate after confronting House colleague Tim Ryan over U.S. military presence abroad.The Hawaii Democrat's fiery exchange with the congressman from Ohio sent Twitter aflutter Wednesday night, prompting speculation it could have been her much-needed breakout moment as a crowded primary field jostles for the party's 2020 presidential nomination.
"I'm not a political pundit. I'm not going to try to pretend to be one," Gabbard told the Washington Examiner in Miami. "It's a very important issue that is deeply personal for me. Just a few weeks ago,

The Left's attempt to rewrite history and further delegitimize Donald Trump's presidency kicked into another gear on Monday night with the live reading of The Investigation: A Search for the Truth in Ten Acts." The play, written by Pulitzer Prize–winning author Robert Schenkkan and performed at the historic Riverside Church in Manhattan, was a dramatization of the Mueller Report that extracted parts of the actual text for dialogue. Actors doing the reading included John Lithgow, Jason Alexander, Annette Bening, Kyra Sedgwick, and Alyssa Milano. According to CNN political analyst Julian Zelizer: Given the partisan political climate, the play seemed to be undertaking the role of Congress —
President Donald Trump mocked the first Democratic presidential debate of 2019 Wednesday night, as he traveled to Japan for the G-20 summit. During a refueling stop in Alaska, Trump spoke with some troops at the military base, noting that the debate had already started. “I had my choice between you and them, and I chose you,” he told them. Trump also panned their performance while speaking to reporters, after the first section of the debate. “I think they all are going to do very poorly,” he said. After boarding the plane again, Trump shared his view with the public on Twitter.
Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell rejected the latest House border funding bill because it claws back funding for efforts to deter illegal immigration.“It’s not going to happen,” the Kentucky Republican announced on the Senate floor Thursday.An hour earlier, the House Rules Committee approved legislation that combined a modified a bipartisan Senate bill with several progressive provisions.The new House bill would eliminate funding in the Senate bill allocated for the use of the military to help secure the border and it strips out additional funding for Immigration and Customs Enforcement, otherwise known as ICE, which is an interior immigration
Former Vice President Joe Biden tweeted an image of a migrant father and daughter who had died on the U.S.-Mexico border and he attempted to link the deaths to cruelty from President Donald Trump. However, Breitbart News consistently reported on the deaths of hundreds of migrants along the border during the Obama-Biden administration — horrors that then-Vice President Biden never spoke about during his time in the White House.During the Obama-Biden administration, 535 migrants died in one Texas county alone — Brooks County. The county is located about 80 miles north of the Texas-Mexico border and is home to the Falfurrias Border Patrol Checkpoint on U.S. Highway 281.
The Supreme Court ordered further proceedings in the dispute over a citizenship question on the 2020 census form Thursday, saying the Trump administration apparently concealed its true reason for adding the query. Chief Justice John Roberts delivered the Court’s opinion, portions of which were unanimous. “It is rare to review a record as extensive as the one before us when evaluating informal agency action — and it should be,” Roberts wrote. “But having done so for the sufficient reasons we have explained, we cannot ignore the disconnect between the decision made and the explanation given. Our review is deferential, but we are “not required to exhibit a naiveté

I'm not sure the first night of the Democratic debate had a winner, but it sure had a loser: Robert Francis ‘Beto' O'Rourke. The former congressman found himself the target of Bill de Blasio, Cory Booker, Julián Castro, and John Delaney. And O'Rourke didn't fare well. He came across as stilted and rehearsed during his answers and off-balance in his responses to the other candidates. O'Rourke enjoyed a lot of publicity last year, and much attention when he launched his campaign, but he has since lost ground to South Bend mayor Pete Buttigieg. O'Rourke is at 3 percent nationally in the RCP average.

President Trump was furious on Thursday after the Supreme Court ruled to block his administration from adding a citizenship question to the 2020 census.

When it comes to so-called “abortion rights”, Democratic presidential candidate Julián Castro believes no one should be excluded from the right to choose – including men who identify as women.At last night’s Democratic debate, Castro was asked about his position on abortion rights and if his healthcare plan would cover abortion costs. Here’s what the former housing secretary had to say: “I don’t believe only in reproductive freedom, I believe in reproductive justice. And, you know, what that means is just because a woman, or let’s also not forget someone in the trans community, a trans female, is poor doesn’t mean they shouldn’t have the right
Today the Supreme Court issued two major opinions with profound implications for American politics. It blocked, for now, adding a question about citizenship on the 2020 Census in Department of Commerce vs. New York. In Rucho v. Common Cause, the Court permanently killed off allowing federal courts to decide that a legislative map gave one side too much of a partisan advantage.It was a bad day for the right, a very bad day for the left, and an extremely bad day for Chief Justice John Roberts. First, the very bad day for the left. For years, the institutional left has been trying to strip state legislatures of power
Sen. Elizabeth Warren promised to cancel everyone’s private health insurance coverage during Wednesday night’s Democrat debate. This early in the campaign season, and I mean way early, months and months and months away from the first votes being taken, the only real benefit of Wednesday night’s debate was how it nailed Warren down as a power-hungry socialist who will take away everyone’s private health insurance.There was no ambiguity here.One of the night’s better questions came from NBC News anchor Lester Holt, who asked straight out, “Many people watching at home

Twitter has announced that it intends to add what would essentially be warning labels and disclaimers to tweets posted by world leaders that allegedly violate the platform’s controversial and highly inconsistent policies concerning abuse, harassment, threats and so-called hate speech.While the social media network has denied that this new rule has anything to do with President Donald Trump, there’s a strong belief that the rule is in fact centered on stymieing him.“[T]here are certain cases where it may be in the public’s interest to have access to certain Tweets, even if they would otherwise be in violation of our rules,” the social media network announced in a blog post Thursday.

Will Joe Biden receive the same kid gloves treatment on the second night of the 2020 Democratic candidate presidential debates hosted by NBC that Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) received on the first night of debates? Warren was not challenged on her false claims of Native American ancestry, a key vulnerability for her in any potential general election matchup with President Trump, by the five NBC moderators or the nine also-ran candidates on the stage with her Wednesday when ten of the 25 announced Democratic candidates for president participated in the two-hour-long first installment of the two consecutive nights of debate.
Russian President Vladimir Putin insisted President Trump won the election without an assist from Moscow, calling him “a talented person.” “Mr. Trump is not a career politician,” Putin told the Financial Times. “I do not accept many of his methods when it comes to addressing problems. But do you know what I think? I think that he is a talented person. He knows very well what his voters expect from him.” Putin has dismissed accusations of Russian interference in the 2016 election, despite the U.S. intelligence community and special counsel Robert Mueller concluding that Russia sought to help Trump win.
MIAMI, Florida—Former vice president Joe Biden will not visit the “spin room” after participating in the second night of the first Democratic Party presidential primary debate Thursday evening, according to a report from Buzzfeed News. Buzzfeed’s Henry Gomez, citing “Biden campaign officials,” reported Thursday afternoon that the frontrunner will forego the traditional ritual of fielding questions from the press after the two-hour debate formally ends.(Tweet) It is not clear why Biden is skipping the “spin room.” One reason could simply be strategic: he is still a prohibitive frontrunner

Supreme Court Justice John Roberts may go down in judicial history as the worst Republican SCOTUS pick ever. The man who found ObamaCare constitutional by inventing the fiction that it was a tax has joined the court’s four liberals to block a citizenship question on the 2020 Census, not because it is unconstitutional, but rather because he didn’t like the Trump administration’s reasons for asking for it.The man who supervises the FISA Court, which blindly accepted every lie and fake document the Obama FBI and DoJ put before it to justify the deep state coup against the Trump presidency, says the reasons Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross presented
A perfect symbol to show how far-left and crazy the Democratic Party has become is that it was an attack line in Thursday night’s debate to say someone was a prosecutor.
Former Vice President Joe Biden, in defending himself from unfair attacks on his record on racial issues by Kamala Harris, the California senator, tried attacking back as follows: “If we want to have this campaign litigated on who supports civil rights, whether I did or not, I’m happy to do that. I was a public defender. I didn’t become a prosecutor. I left a good firm to become a public defender.”
President Trump, tweeting from the G-20 summit in Japan Thursday night, summed up the Democrat debate this way: All Democrats just raised their hands for giving millions of illegal aliens unlimited healthcare. How about taking care of American Citizens first!? That’s the end of that race! At Thursday night's debate, in a "show of hands" question, NBC's Savannah Guthrie asked the ten Democrats on the stage: "Raise your hand if your government plan would provide coverage for undocumented immigrants?" All the presidential hopefuls raised their hands.

Ass’ Kamala Harris Is the Antithesis of Trump replies
Friday on MSNBC’s “Deadline: White House,” host Nicolle Wallace said Sen. Kamala Harris (D-CA) is “beautiful,” “brilliant,” and a “bad-ass,” who she said would not even know who a man like President Donald Trump is. While reporting on the Trump teams reaction, the Democratic debates, Washington Post reporter Ashley Parker said, “The people who really popped for them was Warren and Kamala. So Warren they think she has an appeal that is very different way from Trump. She is authentic. She can give a good speech on the stump. She knows what she thinks. And that economic populism is one they think can hurt him.

The Speaker of the House of Representatives on Thursday said it shouldn't be a crime to cross into the United States illegally. "It shouldn’t be a crime to have a visa -– to have a status violation.

After an anti-Trump woman spit in Eric Trump's face at a bar in Chicago on Tuesday evening, the famous son decided not to press charges against the woman and apparently directed her to "have a nice evening." Former Navy SEAL and pro-Trump pundit Carl Higbie said he spoke privately to Trump about the incident during an appearance on Newsmax TV. “I love how the Left wants to rationalize this as, depending on your level of outrage is your level of justification here. … There’s no reason to ever do this,”
As President Trump begins day-two at the G20 he happens to tweet a public message to Chairman Kim Jong-Un about a quick meet-and-greet at the DMZ. You know, if you’ve got a few minutes… LOL. (Tweet) Too darned funny….. Obviously this possibility was the subject of the letter which President Trump recently sent to Chairman Kim which the North Korean leader described as “excellent content“. Trump had this tweet timed for this moment. As we noted at the time, this was predictable.
There’s a reason why you should always be skeptical of conventional wisdom when it comes to elections.Conventional wisdom said Trump should have been finished after almost every 2016 primary debate. It didn’t happen. There are many reasons for that, not the least of which is that what gets the juices flowing for beltway insiders may not appeal to normal people.Is there another example of that dynamic beginning to play out?Last night, Kamala Harris savaged Joe Biden on the topic of race in the first Democratic party debate.

The two and half years of TDS mass psychosis inside the Democratic Party since November 2016 are taking a toll. Trump Derangement Syndrome would already be recognized as a mental illness in an updated DSM-5 if the psychiatric profession were to magically shift into bias for conservatism instead for the left, but even without the blessing of the shrinks, it is real, and it is taking a toll on the Democrats.Normally, The Democrats exercise a degree of party discipline that Republicans can only envy. And their friends in the mainstream media love to highlight tensions within the Republican coalition while ignoring donkey conflicts.

I know. I know. Polls mean nothing, and we all know then-candidate Donald Trump was down big-time in almost every one back in 2016 for, well, pretty much the entire cycle until the actual election results proved the polls to be a giant sack of you know what. This time around, however, with the president supposedly polling double digits behind everyone both dead and alive with a D beside their name, it’s hard not to get a little discouraged if you’re all in for four more years of MAGA.There are several reasons for this, of course.

All kinds of Democrats said it, so why not their allies in the media?I’m speaking here of the media chorus that insisted — insisted — that what President Trump, in an Oval Office address to the nation in January called a “humanitarian crisis” at the border — was in fact nothing more than a “manufactured crisis.”It’s one thing for partisan Democrats to make such a preposterous charge thinking they can get away with it. They are in this case, after all, seriously Trump-hating partisans. But the media? Those who insist that an “Apple is not a Banana” because “Facts Come First.”

Joe Biden drew jeers from a group of his wealthy donors Saturday evening after he asserted that public displays of homophobia were acceptable as recently as 2014.
Addressing 50 guests at the Seattle home of public relations executive Roger Nyhus, the former vice president claimed businessmen making "fun of a gay waiter" was routinely acceptable.Those remarks sparked outcries from the audience, who yelled "Not in Seattle!" Others disputed that casual acts of bigotry such as the kind Biden described would not be met with objections.
Stephanie Wilkinson has re-affirmed the Red Hen’s stance that it is perfectly acceptable to refuse service to political and social figures you disagree with, and it was quickly met with backlash from those who have maintained their sanity.The Red Hen rose to national recognition in 2018 after refusing to serve then-Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee-Sanders. This account was confirmed by Sanders herself in a tweet made over a year ago. Last night I was told by the owner of Red Hen in Lexington, VA to leave because I work for @POTUS and I politely left. Her actions say far more about her than about me.
Pinal County Sheriff Mark Lamb removes his AR-15 from the safety guard in his white Silverado pick-up and heads into the brush off a lonely stretch of freeway in search of bad guys — human traffickers and drug smugglers who have made the area around this small desert city a dangerous criminal hub. Lamb, 46, is a towering Mormon lawman, who wears cowboy boots and Wrangler blue jeans, cinched with a leather belt engraved with the word “Sheriff.” His cell phone ring-tone is the theme song from “G.I. Joe” — who “never gives up. He’s always there, fighting for freedom over land and air.”

Portland Mayor Ted Wheeler’s hands-off policy when it comes to Antifa protestors came under scrutiny on Saturday after journalist Andy Ngo was assaulted by masked Antifa assailants.Wheeler, who is also police commissioner, said nothing on Saturday, as hundreds of Antifa protestors gathered on the streets, with some throwing milkshakes — potentially mixed with quick-drying cement — and assaulting Ngo.Ngo, shaken and bloodied, began livestreaming on his phone after his assault, and could be heard asking a police officer, “Where the hell were all of you?”U.S. Ambassador to Germany Ric Grenell tweeted,

South Korean president Moon Jae-in went all out to please President Trump’s meat-and-potatoes palate during his visit to Seoul on Saturday. The official menu for a welcome dinner at the Blue House featured a Trump fave — sirloin steak of US beef — as the main course. And while the appetizer course highlighted traditional Korean fare, including steamed sea urchins with tofu and pan-fried mung beans, it also included miniature hamburgers to tempt the fast-foodie-in-chief.
How do you know you are no longer a Democrat?You believe and respect the U.S. Constitution and the Bill of Rights. The founding documents of the United States still matter and must not be set aside. You believe the right to free speech applies to everyone, regardless of political party affiliation.You believe in the sanctity of human life and abortion is murder.You believe in the Second Amendment and the right to own guns. You believe that the United States is a sovereign nation with recognized borders; which must be respected, guarded, and protected.You know there are only two biological sexes.

Only in today’s post-Obama bizarro world does a 29-year-old bartender feel qualified to question the credentials of a woman who ran a company estimated to be worth $50 million.Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., is renowned for saying dumb things, which is why she is commonly referred to as the “Bronx nitwit,” but the socialist doesn’t allow that to prevent her from adding to her illustrious body of work.Taking to social media, Ocasio-Cortez displayed her angst over first daughter Ivanka Trump accompanying her father, President Donald Trump, to the G-20 summit held in Japan.
An interesting thing happened in some Never Trump circles after the Democratic primary debates ended last Thursday night. While it won’t change the calculus of those we are about to discuss, it at least has them finally admitting the imperfect reality that drove the decision of many Trump voters in 2016.To preface, we need to establish exactly what group of Never Trump figures we are talking about here.There was a dramatic split in the Never Trump movement before the 2018 mid-term elections. While some Never Trump members realized that supporting Democrats to flex their opposition to Trump was a foolhardy move that did nothing to move the ball forward,
A Chick-fil-A in Manhattan was vandalized Sunday, during the World Pride Parade.As first reported by the Daily Caller, cross-shaped pink tape that read "F--k haters" marked the front window of the midtown Manhattan location, which was closed during the parade for Sunday.

WASHINGTON — Democratic presidential candidate Beto O’Rourke visited Mexico on Sunday and listened to tearful immigrants say they fled Central American violence and turmoil to seek asylum in the U.S., but were turned away at the border. In his first international trip as a White House hopeful, the former congressman traveled to Ciudad Juarez, across the Rio Grande from his native El Paso, Texas, to meet what his campaign described as “individuals and families directly impacted by Donald Trump’s cruel and inhumane policies.” A fluent Spanish speaker, O’Rourke met around a table at a shelter with immigrants from El Salvador,
As the immigration crisis at the border continues unabated with hundreds of thousands of migrants suffering and even dying on the treacherous trek through Mexico to the U.S. border, Democrats are blaming President Donald Trump and gearing up to introduce legislation to increase the number of refugees admitted to 100,000 a year.(Tweet) This despite evidence that shows some 500,000 migrants —mostly from Central America— will get across the U.S./ Mexico border without being apprehended, including women and children. The United Nations reports that in 2018 the United States took in around 23,000 refugees

British journalist Piers Morgan did not respond kindly to Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez(D-NY) recently questioning Ivanka Trump’s credentials. After AOC questioned why Ivanka Trump was qualified to travel to the G-20 summit, the former “Celebrity Apprentice” champion said, “Could be worse … Ivanka could have been a bartender 18 months ago.” (Photos) The tweet was an obvious knock against 29-year-old Ocasio-Cortez’s limited work experience, which includes working as a bartender.The first-term congresswoman worked as a bartender and waitress in Union Square before being elected

Reparations are a fashionable political topic that has been employed extensively by the Democrats, feeding right into their identity politics and their intersectional victimhood scale of merit.Putting the feel-good stuff and the virtue-signaling aside, the administration of such an idea is fraught with many problems and leaves sensible people — Republicans in particular — with only a fight-or-flight response.I propose another approach. Let's force the Democrats to pay reparations to every American citizen who is not a Democrat...or to somebody, anyway.
First the motive. The Democrats are responsible for many bad things, but let's just focus on those things that no rational person
White House Economic Adviser Larry Kudlow told “Fox News Sunday” that he doesn’t understand the Democrats’ criticism of President Donald Trump’s handling of the economy, given its recent success.Kudlow was asked to respond to the Democratic presidential candidates’ assertion that the U.S. economy isn’t working for all Americans. (Video) Fox News host Chris Wallace showed a clip of the first Democratic presidential debate when Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) said, “When you've got an economy that is great for those with money and isn't doing great for everyone else, that is corruption, pure and simple. We need to call it out, we need to attack it head on.”
The near-unanimous verdict across the mainstream media about last week’s Democratic debates — from the New York Times to the Wall Street Journal — is that the party has moved so far to the left that it is jeopardizing its chances to unseat President Donald Trump in 2020. The concern from left-leaning outlets like the Times can be interpreted as a warning to the Democratic presidential primary field that they need to find a way to shift back toward the center — even superficially — right away.
Julián Castro, the former head of Housing and Urban Development, explained he does not speak Spanish fluently because his parents felt internalized oppression to make sure he could speak English."People, I think, internalized this oppression about it, and basically wanted their kids to first be able to speak English," Castro said Sunday in an interview aired on MSNBC. "And I think that in my family, like a lot of other families, that the residue of that, the impact of that is that there are many folks whose Spanish is not that great."Castro added that he is working to correct his parent's mistake
Far-left CNN and, most especially, network chief Jeff Zucker, owe Quillette journalist Andy Ngo a personal apology. For more than a year now, Zucker’s CNN has championed and defended not just the left-wing terrorist group Antifa, but Antifa’s regular and documented use of violence and physical intimidation. Here is a short list of CNN excusing, complimenting, and encouraging Antifa’s use of violence against CNN’s political enemies on the right: Antifa fights for a “good cause.” Antifa’s fight “is right.”

Please keep saying America is great. Because it is. I say this in response to the New York Times' Nayeema Raza and Taige Jensen's video request to the alternate,"Please stop telling me America is great." The problems begin with the authors' assessment of the U.S. poverty rate, which is lower than it might be because so many of the world's poor seek to make their homes here, knowing that economic opportunity awaits them.Referencing the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development, Raza and Jensen offer a graphic which says the U.S. has the "highest poverty rate." One problem?

It took a lot of muscle, blood, courage and tenacity to tame a continent. It took a people who refused to give up on the dream of freedom and prosperity that had uprooted them and motivated them to leave ancestral homes and sail thousands of miles of treacherous ocean to make landfall in a new world they knew nothing about and face hostile indigents, raging rivers and endless, uncharted wilderness inundated with aggressive animals, poisonous snakes and only heaven knew what else.It took a people who were willing to claim this wild land foot by foot and come together armed with a few muskets and squirrel rifles to defeat

Nike has decided to pull their America-themed 4th of July sneakers which featured the “Betsy Ross” flag, after former NFL anthem-protester and Nike pitchman Colin Kaepernick raised concerns over the offensive symbolism he felt the flag displayed, the Wall Street Journal reports.According to the WSJ. The sneaker giant created the Air Max 1 USA in celebration of the July Fourth holiday, and it was slated to go on sale this week.

(Liberals) cannot simply dictate anything to anyone as they have been attempting to do over the recent decades."Such was the confident claim of Vladimir Putin to the Financial Times on the eve of a G-20 gathering that appeared to validate his thesis.Consider who commanded all the attention at the Osaka summit.The main event was Trump's meeting with China's Xi Jinping and their agreement to renew trade talks. Xi runs an archipelago of detention camps where China's Uighur Muslims and its Kazakh minority have their minds coercively "corrected."

BizPac Review published reports on Monday that Nike developed a Betsy Ross-themed shoe just in time to celebrate Independence Day, then yanked it from production. Shortly after, sponsored activist Colin Kaepernick reportedly complained that he found the imagery depicted on the clothing to be offensive. As happens all too often in our softened society, Nike immediately recalled the shoe and drew the ire of patriots like Fox News host Laura Ingraham, who called the decision “pathetic” and declared that she will no longer be buying Nike sneakers for her family.
A military jury has found Navy SEAL Chief Eddie Gallagher not guilty on almost all counts, including the killing of a wounded ISIS fighter.He was only found guilty on one count related to taking a photo of the ISIS fighter’s corpse, which carries a maximum sentence of four months, sources told Breitbart News. As Gallagher has served nine months in pre-trial confinement, it is likely he will not serve any time in jail at all, sources said. There were five enlisted Marines and two sailors on the jury, including one Navy SEAL. The verdict was publicly announced by former New York Police Department Commissioner Bernie Kerik,

Vice President Mike Pence inexplicably canceled a planned trip to discuss the opioid epidemic in New Hampshire, with White House officials offering little explanation Tuesday. Pence was due to appear at the Granite Recovery Centers headquarters in Salem, N.H., for a roundtable discussion with former patients and state officials. He was expected to speak at 1 p.m. “on the opioid crisis and illegal drug flow in New Hampshire,” according to a media advisory.
Shortly before noon, officials in Salem said Air Force 2 was diverted back to Washington, D.C., but insisted that it was not an emergency.
President Donald Trump requested tanks for his massive Fourth of July celebration, and it looks like he’ll get them. Two tanks were transported from Fort Stewart in Georgia by train and are currently sitting idle on a freight train in southeastern Washington, DC, according to a report by the Associated Press. Alongside the two M1A1 Abrams tanks are four other military vehicles, all of which are being guarded by military police. (Tweet/Photo)
President Donald Trump said federal intervention might be needed to clean up the streets in major U.C. cities and appeared to boast about reducing homelessness in Washington during an interview with Fox News on Monday. In an interview taped in Japan with host Tucker Carlson, the U.S. president addressed foreign policy and the power of big tech companies before the conversation turned toward the conditions in major U.S. cities.After Carlson said that Osaka and Tokyo – two cities Trump visited during his trip to Japan for the G-20 meeting – were clean and didn't have graffiti or "junkies,"
President Donald Trump’s controversial takeover of the Fourth of July celebration at the National Mall won’t completely take over the cable airwaves.MSNBC, for one, doesn’t plan to carry his “Salute to America” live, though the network will assess in real time whether to air clips of the event, a spokesperson told POLITICO.Fox News is planning to cover “Salute to America” during a two-hour edition of “Special Report,” which airs from 6 to 8 p.m. And C-SPAN is planning to carry the event live, beginning at 6:15 p.m. CNN representatives did not respond to requests for comment. The network is currently slated to air “The Situation Room” at 6 p.m.
This Fourth of July may be noticeably less patriotic according to a new Gallup poll, which reveals that American pride has hit a new low.Only 45 percent of men and women in the US are 'extremely proud' to be American, the lowest number ever recorded since the poll was first conducted in 2001, and the second straight year that this number was below 50 percent.Once broken down by political party, those numbers become wildly skewed, with 76 percent of Republicans 'extremely proud' versus just 22 percent of Democrats. Independents fall right in the middle with 41 percent.

Donald Trump ran for president promising to “drain the swamp,” but even his sometimes valiant efforts amount to no more than removing marsh water one tin cup at a time.
Three Supreme Court decisions at the end of its term last week remind us that the federal administrative state, not the elective offices, is the frustrating, sometimes abusive entity through which most citizens encounter their government. The next president should make it a priority to radically restructure and reduce the administrative leviathan. The virtual GOP campaign against President Trump must make massive administrative reform a galvanizing issue.The challenge could even employ a Trump-like slogan: Bust the bureaucracy!
Kellyanne Conway torched a White House reporter for his “irresponsible” question about recent comments made by President Trump.The White House counselor lashed out at NBC News White House correspondent Peter Alexander for a question he posed during a press gaggle on the White House driveway Tuesday, exposing him for “slipping in editorial comment” in a fiery exchange.(Video: C-SPAN) Alexander referred to recent remarks made by Trump, asking Conway to elaborate. “The president just yesterday was asked if he could give a speech that would reach all Americans, and in his answer he said, of the Democrats, that their health care plan would destroy the country,” Alexander said.
This week, sportswear giant Nike agreed to pull their “Betsy Ross Flag” sneakers after former NFL player nd anthem-protester Colin Kaepernick, advised them that the American flag is a symbol of racism, hate, and slavery. However, the company has had no issue offering shoes with many other national flags and colors, including human rights abusers such as China and Turkey. Naturally, Nike was quick to create gay pride flag-themed shoes. There are quite a few styles set up in the rainbow colors of gay pride. So, as far as Nike is concerned, gay pride is great, but American pride is “racist.”But Nike has also created shoes with the flags
A former top official in the U.S. State Department testified that he raised concerns about deleted emails from Hillary Clinton's personal email system.Clinton set up and used a private email server for the majority of her time as secretary of state during the Obama administration. John Hackett served as deputy director and then director of the department’s Information Programs and Services from 2013-16, which handles document management for Freedom of Information Act requests among other things.Hackett said he was concerned over news that the Clinton team had segregated and then deleted about 30,000 emails out of a larger batch set
MSNBC conspiracy theorist Joy Reid said on Tuesday that she believes that President Donald Trump is trying to send a "threat" to "his fellow Americans" by having a July 4th celebration that will feature tanks and military aircraft. (Video) Reid's comments came after Trump tweeted on Tuesday morning: "Big 4th of July in D.C. 'Salute to America.' The Pentagon & our great Military Leaders are thrilled to be doing this & showing to the American people, among other things, the strongest and most advanced Military anywhere in the World. Incredible Flyovers & biggest ever Fireworks!"
The resistance to President Donald Trump has become so toxic that nothing is off-limits when it comes to finding reasons to denigrate the president, not even the 4th of July.But then, if the left is more than willing to exploit migrant children to further their agenda, why not the day marking America’s independence — independence gained after a long, bloody war with Britain.With Trump getting involved in the annual 4th of July celebration in Washington, an MSNBC panel took great exception to plans to display brand new Abrams tanks — the president toured the manufacturing plant in Lima, Ohio, in March and heaven forbid
Jumping Ju-Ju bones. Wow. The North Korean broadcast of the meeting between President Trump and Chairman Kim Jong-un has now been fully translated to English.
Initially, even without the translation, we could see the optimistic message and a mutual strategy that would align the interests of Chairman Kim and President Trump. However, the translation is even better than anticipated. The message to the North Korean people is not just optimism and propaganda, the message directly and purposefully conveys an incredibly strong message of respect for U.S. President Trump. WATCH:

The Washington Post ran a story challenging Americans' use of fireworks to celebrate Independence Day just days before the national holiday. The Monday piece, headlined "Fireworks are America's favorite face exploding, dog torturing, bird murdering way to celebrate its birthday," is part of a series questioning "the supposed joys of summer."The article begins cheerfully describing the centuries-old American tradition before quickly pivoting to why fireworks are obnoxious, dangerous, and mean:
A Jim Beam warehouse filled with about 45,000 bourbon barrels in Woodford County remained on fire midday Wednesday, and bourbon runoff has gone into a nearby creek and the Kentucky River.Two barrel warehouses at the Jim Beam facility on McCracken Pike near the Franklin County line caught fire about 11:30 p.m. Tuesday, said Drew Chandler, Woodford County Emergency Management director. (Tweet/Video) One standard bourbon barrel usually holds about 53 gallons of bourbon that eventually turns into around 150 to 200 750 milliliter bottles. If all the barrels held bourbon, that would be a loss of at least 6 million bottles.

For people like Kevin Fossett, a U.S. Navy veteran who likes to check up on a nest in Florida, the sight of the birds stirs feelings of patriotism, especially with the approach of Independence Day.Fossett said in recent years he has watched several eagle eggs
Americans declared their independence from Britain on July 2, 1776, a date that John Adams called "the most memorable epocha in the history of America.”Congress approved the Declaration two days later, on July 4, which we now celebrate as Independence Day. Writing to his wife on July 3, 1776 from Philadelphia, John Adams said he believed the occasion would be "celebrated, by succeeding Generations, as the great anniversary Festival." He described how he believed Americans should mark the day: It ought to be commemorated, as the Day of Deliverance by solemn Acts of Devotion to God Almighty. It ought to be solemnized with
Rep. Justin Amash (R-MI), the Michigan Never Trump GOP congressman who recently publicly backed impeachment of President Donald Trump, is now underwater in his own district according to a poll obtained exclusively by Breitbart News.Amash is polling at just 17 percent in the GOP primary, trailing State Rep. Jim Lower by double digits. Lower, who announced his candidacy as Amash revealed his support for impeaching Trump, is at 27 percent–a 10-point lead over Amash. What’s more, another Amash challenger, State Rep. Lynn Afendoulis, is tied with the congressman for 17 percent–meaning one challenger to the incumbent representative is beating him by double digits
Navy SEAL Chief Edward Gallagher was fined and busted down a rank Wednesday following his conviction for posing with a photo of a war casualty in Iraq a day after the same jury cleared him of murder.The jury busted him from an E-7 to an E-6, and he will have to forfeit $2,697 of his pay for two months.The seven-member panel of Marines and sailors also imposed a four-month jail sentence but that requirement has already been met because Gallagher had already spent 10 months behind bars before his trial.
In addition to the infamous ‘Baby Trump’ blimp, leftist activists are now also planning to bring a large robot of President Donald Trump tweeting from the toilet to DC’s “Salute to America” Fourth of July celebrations.

Lessem told the leftist blog the Daily Kos that his goal with the robot is to “create this year’s attention-getting
Republicans witnessed a massive power struggle over the party reins in 2016. And many are still wrestling with the final result and its implications. Former Ohio Gov. John Kasich, a vocal Trump critic, is one such man. He believes that in the long run, Trump won’t have the final say. In an interview with the Washington Post, Kasich said, “Members of the Republican Party are in a coma right now.” “And at some point,” he said, “they’ll wake up and say, ‘What’s happened?’ And then we’re going to tell them, and they’re going to go, ‘Really?’”
Supreme Court justice and liberal icon Ruth Bader Ginsburg on Tuesday praised newly-confirmed Justice Brett Kavanugh for appointing an entirely female staff. Ginsburg spoke about her own history in the fight for gender equality to a packed auditorium at Georgetown Law School.Ginsburg praised Kavanaugh — whose controversial confirmation was marked by allegations of sexual assault — and remarked that the court's upcoming fall term will be the first time in history that more women will be clerking than men.
Federal authorities, in the days leading to Independence Day, warned of potential, not specific, attacks against revelers at the hands of “homegrown terrorists,” referring to those inspired by overseas jihadi groups such as the Islamic State (ISIS/ISIL) and al-Qaeda, according to an intelligence bulletin issued to law enforcement.The warning came as ISIS threatened to target the celebrations marking the birth of the United States in the nation’s capital and New York.
ABC News obtained the bulletin, jointly issued by the FBI, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), and the National Counterterrorism Center (NCTC) on June 26.The news outlet noted that federal authorities also cautioned law enforcement officers about possible attacks

Right now, we have a near Chernobyl-level style blow up over tanks and armored vehicles being part of the Fourth of July festivities this week. President Trump ordered it. It was a great decision. And the fact that the Left is triggered by this means that he should have ordered more tanks for the event. Tanks have been present for victory parades before. The optics is fine. No one cares about that. Americans are patriotic and they like seeing tanks. The only people who have problems with all of this are the Democratic Party and their allies in the media because Trump has taken over the event.

Assault on Western Civilization
replies
Western civilization was founded on a set of philosophies that focuses strongly on the sanctity of individuals and their power of logic and reason. This belief led to a desire to trust things that could be proven to be true or legitimate, from government to science. Judeo-Christian morality has formed the basis of most Western notions of ethics and behavioral standards. Thus, the attack on Western civilization must begin with the attack on the church and Christian values, and, just as important, the family unit. The reason why the church, Christian values, and family are targets of the left is they want people's loyalty and allegiance to
In a press release Wednesday, radical left activist group Code Pink announced its newest idea for how to publicly dump on President Trump: to publicly display him dumping.For the big "Salute to America" event in Washington, D.C. on Independence Day — which, to the chagrin of the pacifist group, will include a few tanks this year — Code Pink will not only fly a Trump Baby Blimp and a bunch of Baby Trump balloons, it will be displaying a giant "Trump Robot sitting on golden toilet.""This 4th of July, CODEPINK will host a festival on the National Mall from 2-6pm

On the same day that the Declaration of Independence became official, a telling event further reveals that our founders understood well the “ancient principles” upon which our republic must be built. On July 4, 1776, the Second Continental Congress appointed a committee -- consisting of Thomas Jefferson, Benjamin Franklin, and John Adams -- to design an official seal for the United States. Adams proposed an image of Hercules contemplating the persuasions of Virtue and Sloth.Franklin proposed a biblical theme: Moses standing on the Shore, and extending his Hand over the Sea, thereby causing the same to overwhelm Pharaoh who is sitting in an open Chariot,
For the haters, it’s open season on the American ideal. Colin Kaepernick doesn’t like today’s American flag because it reminds him of police brutality and he doesn’t like Betsy Ross’ O.G. flag because it reminds him of slavery. I’m starting to think maybe Colin Kaepernick is not so fond of the flag, or of the country that made him rich.
Nike supported him by withdrawing the Betsy Ross-flagged sneaker. That’s right, the American flag, in any form, is now apparently a toxic symbol

President Trump’s Fourth of July Salute to America includes displays of military hardware – tanks, Bradley fighting vehicles, and a combat aircraft flyover. Too much? Many in the liberal media think so, but what do average Americans think? I think they understand. Most Americans do not mind seeing military involvement in Independence Day celebrations. Many turn out to see flyovers by the Navy Blue Angels and Air Force Thunderbirds. Most see a similar display on the Fourth of July as affirming America’s resolve to defend freedom.That is not a new sentiment, but one rooted in our past. The Fourth of July is, after all, about defending freedom
Veteran-owned clothing store, Nine Line Apparel, offered a response to Nike’s controversial move to drop an American Flag-style shoe with their own gear, nodding to the allegedly “offensive” Betsy Ross flag.Nike’s “Betsy Ross Edition” shoe was reportedly canceled by the company after famed anthem-kneeler and former NFL quarterback Colin Kaepernick complained about the patriotic kicks; the former 49er signed onto a multi-million dollar sponsorship deal with Nike last year.

President Trump ended an Independence Day celebration at the Lincoln Memorial on Thursday evening with a call to unity, and a declaration that Americans “are all made by the same almighty God." The president earlier recalled significant moments in the nation’s 243-year history, military and otherwise, from the War of Independence to the defeat of ISIS’ “caliphate” in Syria and Iraq. As he recounted major achievements by the different branches of the military, aircraft of each, including a U.S. Air Force B-2 stealth bomber, U.S. Navy F-35Cs, and Coast Guard helicopters, flew overhead.
The media ran headlines right up to the day of President Trump’s July 4 speech predicting only a “tiny crowd” would show up. How spectacularly wrong they were.An Independent article titled ‘Trump officials ‘fear embarrassingly tiny crowd’ for his Fourth of July speech’ was typical of the coverage.

“Lick it, lick it. Oh, you foul. Put it back, put it back,” a voice can be overheard saying in the video.
President Donald Trump did more than defy his critics with his memorable Fourth of July address from the Lincoln Memorial on Thursday evening. He likely established what will become an annual tradition — one later presidents, decades from now, will continue to observe. And he gave the American people the tribute that we have long deserved, but which we have somehow been unable, until now, to give ourselves, too afraid to pass along to the next generation.The president’s opponents said that his revamped Fourth of July celebrations smacked of authoritarianism.
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) questioned why the Trump administration chose to hold a patriotic “Salute to America” celebration in the nation’s capital Thursday when migrant kids on the border, she suggested, do not have access to toothpaste or soap. She also described the successful event as “poorly attended.”“Trump spent millions on a poorly attended, 1 day parade days after saying he couldn’t afford toothpaste & soap for caged children,”

Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden falsely claimed during a CNN interview on Friday that Russian election interference did not happen during the Obama-Biden administration which led to the 76-year-old being mocked online.(Video) "Look at what's happened with Putin.

President Donald Trump suggested the best solution for poor quality migrant detention centers is to tell would-be immigrants not to illegally cross the border.“I think they do a great job with those facilities, but you know how it can be taken care of? Number one: Tell them not to come because it’s illegal,” the president said Friday when a reporter asked about a report from the Department of Homeland Security’s Office of Inspector General that found migrant detention centers to be overcrowded and unclean.The president said it’s not fair for a legal immigrant to wait “seven or eight” years for citizenship while an illegal alien is able to “walk in”

CNN has agreed to pay $70 million to settle a 15-year-old labor lawsuit brought by over 200 former CNN camera operators, broadcast engineers, and other technicians. The group of employees sued the network after it replaced them with non-union workers. The plaintiffs accused the network of cutting them in order to avoid negotiating with their union and violating federal labor laws. CNN held that it was not legally required to work with the union because the workers were contractors through Team Video Services.The settlement, which was agreed to by both parties, must still be approved by

The Electoral College Is Vital

Along with packing the Supreme Court (as FDR wanted to do when an annoyingly independent judiciary was throwing up Constitutional roadblocks to his New Deal) there has been an even more disturbing idea re: upending American governance today. Having seen Al Gore in 2000 and then Hillary Clinton in 2016 win the popular vote, yet lose the electoral vote, there is a growing cry to eliminate the Electoral College altogether. Fourteen states have already joined the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact, which in effect would give their electoral votes to whichever candidate wins the popular vote. The logic on the surface seems not ludicrous from both
Democratic senator Elizabeth Warren's pledge to end the practice of tapping political donors to be ambassadors comes after years of silence during the Barack Obama presidency, when she voted to confirm numerous donors with no diplomatic experience.Warren's latest proposal, laid out in a Medium post, points to the Trump administration "selling swanky diplomatic posts to rich buffoons.""This president may think a fat wallet and a big campaign check qualifies someone to represent our country abroad," Warren declared.
Speaking to supporters at a town hall in Des Moines, Iowa, sponsored by NARAL Pro-Choice America on Wednesday, Sen. Kamala Harris called President Donald Trump “a predator.”As a prosecutor, Harris said she successfully prosecuted “big banks who preyed on homeowners, prosecuted pharmaceutical companies who preyed on seniors, prosecuted transnational criminal organizations who preyed on women and children, and I will tell you, we have a predator living in the White House.”
A magnitude 7.1 earthquake struck Southern California Friday night, the second major temblor in less than two days and one that rocked buildings across Southern California, adding more jitters to an already nervous region.The quake was centered near Ridgecrest, the location of the July 4th 6.4 magnitude temblor that was the largest in nearly 20 years. It was followed by a aftershock first reported as 5.5 in magnitude. Scientists said it appears the fault causing the quakes was growing.There were reports of Friday night’s quake causing some
Southern California was left rattled on Friday night for the second time in as many days after a 7.1 magnitude quake -centered, again, near the town of Ridgecrest – rocked the city of Los Angeles.CBS LA news anchors Juan Fernandez and Sara Donchey were live on the air when the violent tremors hit.“We are experiencing quite a bit of shaking if you bear with us a moment,” Donchey said. “We’re making sure nothing is going to come down in the studio here.”Visibly scared, Donchey grabbed Fernandez’s arm. “This is a very strong earthquake,” she said. “8:21 here
In an especially combative interview Friday with CNN’s Chris Cuomo, Joe Biden was hoping to rebound from his dismal debate performance. Instead, he kept making it worse.Most notably, the former vice president stumbled trying to explain his positions on mandatory school busing from more than 40 years ago. As Cuomo even reminded him in the interview, Biden was so bad that at one point in the debate, he voluntarily pointed out he was out of time so he wouldn’t have to keep talking.Biden still didn’t have a good answer. He repeatedly used arcane legal terms and made awkward

The problem with Democrats rushing to break the glass ceiling when it comes to the president of the United States is they seem to want the first women to be elected for little more than being a woman.At least, that’s the impression one may get in a tweet from Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand, D-N.Y.Gillibrand is one of several women running to be the Democratic Party’s nominee to oppose President Trump in 2020, and she marked Independence Day by tweeting a photo of most of these women candidates.The caption read: “Happy 243rd birthday, America! Seems like a great time to send a woman to the White House.”
Joe Biden let slip that his campaign was collecting dirt on his rivals for the 2020 Democratic presidential nomination.“I mean, I get all this information about other people’s pasts, and what they’ve done and not done. And you know, I’m just not going to go there. If we keep doing that — I mean, we should be debating what we do from here," Biden told CNN in a Friday interview, referring to the crowded field of two dozen White House hopefuls.In May, Biden, 76, promised not to attack his rivals, saying: “I will not speak ill of any of the Democratic candidates, I will not do it."

Two simple words, and yet, last week, they seemed to cause an ever-widening philosophical separation in these United States of America. For the progressive, socialist left, our 243rd Independence Day was relegated to yet another opportunity to criticize President Trump. Sadly, the left in America, enabled by the media pundits, lost sight of those two words, “American independence.” Instead, they focused all their emotion and angst against one person. And in doing so, they have effectively transferred their hatred of that one person into a perceived hatred of America … and we know that perceptions lend themselves to reality.

Independence Day is a now a day that has no real meaning for far too many Americans.

"Imagine having Malia and Sasha come to your house for a sleepover," Obama said. “It’s like, 'Hello. OK, we’re going to need your Social Security number, we’re going to need your date of birth. There are going to be men coming to sweep your house. If you have guns and drugs, just tell them yes because they are
Since the 8th of November 2016, all those that voted for Donald Trump or supported his candidacy have been gratuitously identified as Nazis, Fascists or white supremacists by the hierarchy of the American Left and the verdict dutifully regurgitated on a near daily basis by oblivious rank and file leftists. Further, not only are those who voted for Trump fascists and racists, but the slogan “Make America Great Again” on a red baseball cap is the new swastika and emblematic of racial supremacy per Nazi dogma.

In his recent major policy speech at Georgetown University, Bernie Sanders repeatedly invoked the name of President Franklin D. Roosevelt. He hailed “the bold and visionary leadership” of FDR, recalling how “Roosevelt led a transformation of the American government and the American economy.”Sanders often cites Roosevelt as his role model and the New Deal as the template for Sanders’s vision of America.
