In case anyone has forgotten that Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has a role model… …here is Rep. Maxine Waters (D-CA) signifying on MSNBC’s “All In” show last night: “I’ve been talking about impeachment for a long time. I am absolutely stunned and amazed that the American people have taken so much off of this president. This president has lied, and I think it’s been...
I just looked through f Steven Hayward’s “The Week In Pictures”, from powerlineblog.com. And I have assembled a small sampling below. I didn’t know whether to laugh – several of these are hysterical in the funny sense – or grind my teeth – several should make any sane person exasperated. A couple manage to accomplish both. In any event, here is the...
Did you know that, absent a pardon by President Trump, there is a very real possibility that Paul Manafort – the only person accused of crimes by robert mueller and his Democrats-only staff who actually went to trial – will spend the rest of his life in jail? From Darren Samuelsohn’s article at politico.com: In their 27-page memo filed late Friday, Mueller’s team said...
Here’s an interesting little tidbit of information for you – and another embarrassment for the serial genealogical liar, Elizabeth Warren. From Brent Scher’s article at Washington Free Beacon (sure not to be picked up by almost any mainstream media): Sen. Marco Rubio (R., Fla.) was featured on the PBS show Finding Your Roots and was told he has a distant relative who was a...
It didn’t take long. But now, even some of the most starry-eyed defenders of Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, the woman-child who won election to congress by doing little more than looking good and showing up at a few campaign rallies while her incumbent opponent never bothered to campaign, can’t take it anymore. Ms. Ocasio-Cortez’s latest display of complete ignorance, proudly...
There is a reason our wonderful “neutral” media make it a point to ignore as much information from the invaluable Judicial Watch as they can get away with. A particularly important example is just-released documentation of the FBI and DOJ covering up the actions of Hillary Clinton and her people – a cover-up performed by the same people who made it clear they were going to do...
With a major hat tip to Jennifer Earl of foxnews.com, here are the 31 – count ’em – 31 national emergencies declared by both Democrat and Republican Presidents in the last 43 years that are still active to this day: Jimmy Carter (2 national emergencies declared, 1 remains active) Blocking Iranian Government Property (November 1979) Bill Clinton (17 national emergencies...
Today’s paragraph comes to us from Bill D’Agostino, writing for newsbusters.org. And it gives you everything you need to know about the state of our wonderful “neutral” media: It’s been two days since NBC’s exclusive reportingthat the Senate Intelligence Committee has found no material evidence of collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia, and as of yet none of...
As readers of this blog know, by February 2nd, I had concluded that last month’s “attack” on Empire actor Jussie Smollett was a hoax. That, of course, was before the following information – excerpted from an article at abc7chicago.com – was added to the pile: Chicago police confirmed Thursday that detectives are talking to two persons of interest in connection with...
Amazon, which has paid exactly $0 in federal taxes for two years running, has decided not to open a major facility in the borough of Queens, New York City, largely because of a dispute with the city’s unions. Remember that the next time Amazon’s Jeff Bezos waxes poetic -and hypocritical – about distribution of wealth and social justice.
Yesterday, both houses of congress passed a funding bill that would – at least for now – avert another government shutdown. He is also expected to expropriate as much as $8 billion for the wall by declaring a “national emergency” – which, we all know, Democrats are sure to challenge on legal grounds. Powerlineblog.com’s Paul Mirengoff calls the bill “a...
Let me start by pointing out that the only reason I am blogging about Robert Francis “Beto” O’Rourke – an inconsequential former congressperson from Texas with no discernible presidential qualifications – is that media have spent the last year-plus, very successfully elevating him to left wing superstardom. So, now, we have to pretend he has some level of...
andrew mccabe was, for almost two years (February, 206 to January 2018), Deputy Director of the FBI. For less than three months (May 9 to August 2, 2017, after then Director james comey was fired he served as interim acting Director. McCabe was eventually fired for providing unauthorized leaks to the media and lying about it. To say he is not a fan of President Trump’s would be an...
William Barr is the new Attorney General of the United States. He passed through the senate with a 54-45 vote, almost entirely on party lines. Acting AG Matthew Whitaker, who, for absolutely no good reason, was treated like so much outhouse waste by Democrats in the House Judiciary Committee this week (a disgrace, covered matter-of-factly by the same media which would have given it major-story...
-Headline number one: for the second year in a row, Amazon will pay exactly nothing in federal taxes. Not one thin dime. -Headline number two: Amazon has just announced it is pulling out of it’s deal to put a massive facility in New York City’s borough of Queens. That first headline, which involves billions of dollars in lost revenue, certainly isn’t going to make the federal...
