Francis Rooney, the sole House Republican to say he is considering President Trump’s impeachment, announced a day later that he is retiring from Congress. The Florida congressman was asked on Fox News Saturday if he would be seeking a third term, and he said he was not. “I don't really think I do, and I don't really think I want one,” Rooney said. “I’ve done what I came to do.” Rooney, who represents a reliably red district, made news Friday after he said he was “ thinking about” whether Trump committed an impeachable offense by holding up aid to Ukraine. He made the statement after White House acting chief of staff Mick Mulvaney said that ...

Democrat candidates for president overwhelmingly targeted Sen. Elizabeth Warren on Tuesday night during the fourth Democrat primary debate. Warren was attacked sixteen times during the debate, according to an NBC tracker, primarily on her proposals for universal health care and her proposed extreme wealth tax. Sen. Amy Klobuchar attacked Warren five different times, while former Vice President Joe Biden and Mayor Pete Buttigieg attacked her on three different occasions. Kamala Harris and Beto O’Rourke attacked Warren on two occasions each, and Andrew Yang attacked her one time. Klobuchar defended her attacks, saying that she wanted to be president of all of America, not just half ...
'Deeply harmful: Democrats fear O’Rourke will aid Trump by calling for seizing guns and taxing churches

Beto O’Rourke is worrying Democrats with his extreme rhetoric on social issues, which they fear could damage the party’s electoral chances next year. Ripples of discontent started forming around the former Texas congressman, 47, when he pushed for the confiscation of military-style rifles after a gunman this summer opened fire at a Walmart in his hometown of El Paso, killing 22. Now, O’Rourke’s call to strip religious institutions of their tax-exempt status if they oppose gay marriage at Thursday night’s CNN forum on gay and transgender issues has Democrats worried that he will mobilize religious voters by fostering fears the left would bankrupt churches and ...
Fauxahontas Was Caught In Another Lie. This One Is About Her Previous Career As a Teacher.

Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) has repeatedly said she was a special needs school teacher but she was fired because she was "visibly pregnant." It's become part of her typical stomping speech, a part of her so-called "resume." It turns out Warrens' narrative was nothing but a lie. During a 2007 interview with Harvard Law Professor Leo Gottlieb, Warren explained the education she obtained. She graduated from high school at 16 and received a full ride scholarship to George Washington University as long as she took part in their debate team. She obtained a degree in Speech Pathology and Audiology. She taught for a year and started graduate school to obtain her ...
Maxine Waters: Trump Causing Me to Get Death Threats, Can’t Even Go To The Grocery Store

Maxine Waters, during an interview on MSNBC, claimed President Trump is trying to incite a Civil War and “setting some of us up to be killed.” Waters’ comments were loosely referencing his criticism of the Ukraine leaker and a quote that the President shared suggesting a “civil war-like fracture” will be the end result of the Democrats push for impeachment and his removal from office. “He should not be going after anybody,” Waters told host Ali Velshi. “He is the president of the United States of America. He is setting some of us up to be killed. I have death threats constantly.” And your unhinged commentary that Trump is a hardcore felon ...
Amazing Coincidence That Nancy Pelosi’s Son Also Has Business Connections With Ukraine

If you’re wondering why Nancy Pelosi is laying low as the effervescent maelstrom of corruption and influence peddling descends upon Joe Biden’s hairplugs, we may have the answer. She has a son of her own involved in oil importing from Ukraine. He even used his Mom to promote his business. BOOM: Nancy Pelosi's son Paul Pelosi Jr. (who went to Ukraine in 2017) was a board member of Viscoil and executive at its related company NRGLab, which DID ENERGY Business in UKRAINE! And Nancy Pelosi appeared in a promotional video for the company!https://t.co/wlndLhPqLe — Patrick Howley (@HowleyReporter) October 3, 2019 When Pelosi, Jr., was asked about the purpose of his visit at ...
New Fundraising Numbers Hint That the Biden Campaign Is In A Death Spiral

New fundraising numbers have been posted by the Democrat primary candidates and they show some interesting shifts in the field. Decrepit and bedridden Bernie Sanders led the pack with $25.3 million. Enough to buy a nice mausoleum. Elizabeth Warren was second with $24.6 million. Pete Buttigieg raised $19.1 million. Joe Biden pulled in $15.2 million. Kamala Harris finished the Third Quarter with $11.6 million. Yahoo Finance has the cute graphic: If you ignore the silliness of Yang and Williamson, the real story is that Joe Biden is in a death spiral. His fundraising is down by 30%. He’s slipping in the polls, especially Iowa and New Hampshire. His South Carolina ...
Biden Campaign Threatens Fox News Over Explosive Trump Campaign Ad on Ukraine Issue

When it comes to maintaining a consistent campaign message, Joe Biden is someone who can be very ... controlling. Last week, streiff wrote about how the Biden campaign was attempting to intimidate cable news networks into keeping President Trump’s personal attorney Rudy Giuliani off their airwaves, alleging he we was “spread[ing] false, debunked conspiracy theories on behalf of Donald Trump.” Fast forward to this week, and the Biden campaign has once again taken to trying to strong-arm cable news outlets, this time over an explosive ad about the Ukraine issue that the Trump campaign is planning on running in key early voting states.

Actor Randy Quaid is not happy with Adam Schiff following the California congressman’s bizarre behavior during a House Intelligence Committee hearing this week. The “Independence Day” star took to his Twitter account on Friday afternoon to threaten a possible political challenge against Schiff. “I’m thinking about running against Schiff for Burbank Rep.

With whistleblower ‘protection’ fake news, media does Trump another favor

Even on its own terms, the media’s Get Trump project has proved a monumental failure. If the blob of blue-checkmark Twitterati wanted to help President Trump portray the latest impeachment push as a partisan witch hunt, they couldn’t have done a better job than they are now. Consider the latest example: On Sunday, CBS’ venerable “60 Minutes” program reported on Twitter that “the government whistleblower who set off the impeachment inquiry of President Trump is under federal protection because they fear for their safety.” The explosive news seemed to vindicate his opponents’ darkest fantasies about the president: Of course Trump would physically ...
Joe Biden’s Campaign Tried to Shut Down Rudy Giuliani Last Weekend and They Had a Very Good Reason

Yesterday, Rudy Giuliani was just about everywhere. The fact that he was everywhere is a testimony to the lack of clout Joe Biden’s campaign has with the media. Joseph R. Biden Jr.’s presidential campaign contacted top television anchors and networks on Sunday to “demand” that Rudolph W. Giuliani, President Trump’s personal lawyer, be kept off the air because of what they called his misleading comments about the Biden family and Ukraine. “We are writing today with grave concern that you continue to book Rudy Giuliani on your air to spread false, debunked conspiracy theories on behalf of Donald Trump,” a pair of top Biden campaign advisers, Anita Dunn and ...
BETRAYAL: Ted Cruz Bashes President Trump’s ‘America First’ Foreign Policy to MSNBC Reporter

Guess this is why he used to be called “Lyin’ Ted.” Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) has talked a good game since he was destroyed in the Republican presidential primary in 2016 by then-candidate Donald Trump, but he will sometimes show his true colors to remind Republicans why he grew to be so reviled during that election cycle. His appearance at the third annual Texas Tribune Festival is a great example of that, as Cruz had a conversation with pencil-necked MSNBC fake news reporter Chris Hayes about why he thinks President Trump is making big foreign policy mistakes. “I have real concerns about our policy in North Korea,” Cruz told Hayes.

I don’t know why anyone ever thought Joe Biden would win. On a good day, when he was sniffing the hair of random women, or telling racist jokes, or lying about his family history, or shaking down banks for large loans he would never have to repay, the best you could say about Joe Biden was that he was inoffensive and could work a small group of elderly voters in a workmanlike manner. Add to that his age and obvious cognitive impairment, and what you have left is the sad shell of a Democrat apparatchik whose appeal to the Democrat base is somewhere between “it’s my turn” and “I’m not batsh** crazy like those other guys” and to the general electorate ...

Bear in mind, these results are trickling in *before* Democratic voters have digested the allegations of corruption made against Biden in the Ukraine matter. Even if they opt not to believe them, how many will conclude that swing voters will believe them next fall and start discounting Biden’s alleged “electability” advantage?

Oh, poor CNN. They headed all the way to the Democrat stronghold of Minnesota only to discover everyone’s voting for Tump. What a sad day for fake news, but a glorious day for Trump, and America First! The report begins with an interview with the mayor of Eveleth, Minnesota, who says “thousands” of Democrats are switching their support over to President Trump. Why is this happening you might wonder? Well, it’s simple really. It’s because President Trump supports mining – and in Minnesota, they mine for a mineral that used to create steel. Another townsman goes on to tell CNN that Democrats have moved so far left, that they’ve lost the American worker, ...
'Only plausible candidate': Never Trump Republicans plotting to back Biden

Republicans opposed to President Trump are quietly preparing to support Democratic front-runner Joe Biden, backing that could materialize in the primary as he attempts to fend off a surging Elizabeth Warren. Some Republican operatives active in Never Trump circles are discussing what form support for Biden might take and the timing. Groups such as Stand Up Republic, co-founded by prominent Never Trump Republicans Evan McMullin and Mindy Finn, could target disaffected GOP voters in key micro-battlegrounds with finely tailored advertising in a bid to boost Biden in the Democratic primary. Biden, 76, is the most likely Democrat to receive measurable support from the Never Trump crowd, most ...

Elizabeth Warren has officially received the warm embrace of democrat socialists – she scored the endorsement of the Working Families Party. This is a slap to Bernie Sanders, who received the party’s endorsement in 2016. Warren had a really good day Monday. Not only did she get the bragging rights of the Working Families Party endorsement but she also held a campaign rally to roll out her latest policy on fighting corruption in government. The rally was attended by more than 20,000 people – Warren is now in the Trump universe of huge crowds and mega-rallies. Ironically, the only other candidate that scores those kinds of numbers is Bernie Sanders. The location of the rally ...

Omar was previously married to a man named Ahmed Nur Said Elmi, and some are saying this may be proof of the union. "In Somalia, one’s name is normally a first name, the father’s name, and then the grandfather’s name," reports the Daily Caller.

The House Judiciary Committee laid out the procedures on Monday of what it's calling its ongoing "impeachment investigation" of President Donald Trump. WASHINGTON — The House Judiciary Committee laid out specific committee procedures governing hearings moving forward as part of what it's calling an ongoing "impeachment investigation" of President Donald Trump, setting the stage for a vote to define that probe which could come this week. The release of the resolution comes after the committee's chairman, Jerrold Nadler, D-N.Y., declared last month that his panel was proceeding with an impeachment investigation despite there being no vote to do ...

As House Democrats prepare to proceed with their legislative agenda, Rep.

"When you're solely focused on going after the president you can't do what's best for the country. And that's been the problem with the Democrats," Jordan said Monday on "Fox & Friends."

Biden’s bloody eye: A new health problem for Dem frontrunner?

One would think that having a leading candidate spontaneously bleed out of an eye socket on live television would grab the media’s attention. One would think incorrectly, as it turns out, even when that presidential candidate is the 76-year-old frontrunner with a history of aneurysms. During last night’s CNN marathon forum on climate change, Joe Biden’s left eye filled with blood while he talked about climate change. Yet outside of a few conservative publications, hardly a media outlet blinked its own eyes, including the news channel that hosted it: The Washington Free Beacon reported on it, as did the Examiner: Former Vice President Joe Biden’s left eye appeared to ...
Libertarians Have Trouble Deciding Who Are Real Libertarians [My Title]

Misconceptions of Real Libertarians If you’ve been involved within the liberty movement for any considerable amount of time, you have no doubt been accused at some point of not being a real libertarian. Real libertarians are simultaneously common and rare within the movement. They are common enough in that they are always available to point out “fake” libertarians, but are also so rare that few (if any) have made it long without being dropped from the list of real libertarians. There are two problems with most instances of these accusations. But first, a clarification: there certainly are people that adopt the libertarian label but don’t adhere to libertarian values. ...
