Hillary’s going to tell the world “What Happened” on Sept. 12

The big story the Mainstream Media will never write is that although Hillary Clinton lost the 2016 presidential election, she still gets to run the White House in absentia.

Losing the House to Win the Future

Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich is worried about the failure of Republican governing reality to match Republican campaign rhetoric. Newt told Fox News, “I would say the highest focus ought to be on getting the tax bill through because if we don’t have economic growth next year, I think we’re in real danger of having Speaker Nancy Pelosi.”

What if the Trump-Sessions feud is a big, clever hoax?

What if the public feud between President Donald Trump and Attorney General Jeff Sessions feud is one huge put-on?

That’s the question Brian C. Joondeph asks in a thought-provoking column at American Thinker today.

Trump Transgender Ban for Military Actually RESTORES Policies of Liberals, Including Obama

The biggest failure of the Trump Administration continues to be its failure to present its own policies in perspective. 

President Trump is being pilloried in the press for his ban on transgenders in the military, just as all conservatives continue to be pilloried in the press for opposing same-sex marriage.

What a FAILED ‘Skinny Repeal’ means to the public

Many of us were not big fans of “skinny repeal” to begin with, but at least it was a step in the right direction. Forty-Nine Republicans in the Senate reluctantly agreed with that line of thinking. Sadly, Senators Murkowski, Collins and McCain (consummate RINO’s all) decided to protect Obama’s ‘signature legislation’, along with forty-eight Democrats.

American Civil War Museum and Historic Tredegar

Nestled on the bank of the James River in Richmond, Virginia, near the American Civil War Museum, the Tredegar Iron Works began operating in 1837. The name Tredegar honored engineers Rhys Davies and his crew who were recruited from the Tredegar Mills in Wales. The proximity to railroads and canal boats made this location ideal.

On this very hot and lazy Saturday afternoon, with temperatures upwards of 100 degrees Fahrenheit, locals were sunbathing on the beach nearby.

VIDEO: Colorblind boy gets Enchroma glasses, sees color for the first time

I don’t know what’s going to happen today with Jeff Sessions, or that crooked IT guy, or the Russia investigation. But I don’t think any of it is more important than this:

Restoring What It Means To Be An American

Even though I am black, I was raised on Superman’s; truth, justice and the American way. I always believed Americans were the world’s good guys. As a kid, I watched my mom cry over “I Love Lucy” TV stars Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz getting a divorce.

Why It Matters That CA Assembly Leaders Mayes and Olsen Had an Affair

While I am a political analyst more comfortable with legislation and policy, occasionally the personal lives of politicians become entangled with politics and even policy. The affair of Republican Assembly Leader Chad Mayes and former Assembly Leader Kristen Olsen is one such situation where personal lives intersected with politics. This is personal and difficult to write about however, it is necessary.

Democrat Tim Ryan (OH) is on board with Trump’s 15% corporate tax rate proposal

Currently, the United States “enjoys” a 39.1% corporate tax rate - the third highest corporate tax rate on Earth, and the highest in the Western world. Donald Trump has announced that he’d like to see that burden cut to 15%.

Dems Try The Islamophobe Card In Defense of Wasserman Schultz’s Arrested IT Guy

Crafty Democrats blame “massive Federal Islamophobia”  for Rep. Debbie (aka ‘Blabbermouth”)  Wasserman Schultz’s , top IT Guy Imran Awan, who spread like a plague among her Democrat colleagues in the House,  being outed by the FBI.

“Massive Federal Islamophobia”?

Debbie Wasserman Schultz’s Lead IT Guy Arrested Trying To Leave Country

Arkancide Alert?

Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz’d IT guy, Pakistan-born Imran Awan was arrested on bank fraud charges at Dulles International Airport Tuesday while trying to make his way out of the country.

Baby Charlie Shows The System For The Monster It Really Is

“The System” raised its brutal fist in the face of the world from Britain today.  It conceded, not in words, but in action how the parents of Charlie Gard had run out of time to secure outside help in trying to keep their baby alive.

NO TRESPASSING ON ISLAM!

As some are speculating, I will also guess that Officer Mohamed Noor, after hearing what might have sounded like a shot, may have believed Justine Damon had a gun in her hand as she leaned toward the squad car in her pajamas. If that was the case, his allegedly firing the shots that killed the unarmed Australian woman was simply the worst of judgments in the presence of panic. In saying all that, I’m straining - times 10 - to give him some benefit of the doubt though obviously none is deserved.

Jihadi Johns crossing over to Jihadi Janes to escape Mosul

The progressive lib-left’s growing obsession with coddling the transgendered is giving big ideas to ISIS terrorists.

The latest ‘minority’, granted sweeping special favors by uber politically correct governments, trannies are no longer just cropping up in school bathrooms and locker rooms, their props are now copied by terrorists on the run.

Islamic Terrorist Threat From Canada Higher Than That coming from Mexico

Montana ranchers who live and work within feet of the longest international border on earth, the Canada-US border, had it right in November of 2015: the unsecured border the U.S. shares with Canada should be a bigger worry than the Mexican one.

No Matter Who or Where You Are, Someone Waits for You

Don’t wait until someone falls gravely ill to pray for them.  Pray every day for other people in the most sincere way of them all: prayers fervently offered on your knees in the privacy of silence, with no one but the Creator even knowing that you are at prayer.

Election Now Over But Poll Games Continue

According to the latest Rasmussen Report, ‘Voters Don’t See Pence As A Trump Replacement’.

Who, other than Rasmussen, says they ever did?

Lloyd Marcus: Troubadour of Troubled Times

In these most trying of days when the Democrats’ ‘Take-Out-Trump-Movement-On Steroids’ keeps coming at us, along comes Lloyd Marcus, blowing the blues away in a song.

Today’s Marcus column is like a refreshing breeze on a muggy day.

Judicial Watch Files Three Lawsuits for Info on FBI Acting Director Andrew McCabe

(Washington, DC)—Judicial Watch today announced that it filed three separate Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuits against the U.S. Department of Justice seeking records for current FBI Acting Director Andrew McCabe relating to his political activities, travel vouchers, and employment status.

The Beltway culture created Anthony Scaramucci, and deserves him

The Beltway culture created Anthony Scaramucci, and deserves him

If you didn’t cringe a little reading about Anthony Scaramucci’s phone call to Ryan Lizza of the New Yorker, I don’t know about you. Scaramucci’s ham-handed, foul-mouthed rant – all on the record to a journalist who was going to report every word of it – makes it harder than it already is to think there is any decorum left in the Trump White House.

UK officials deny even the request to let Charlie Gard die at home

This has not been a good week in the realm of health care.

Feckless, cowardly, Republicans failed to repeal ObamaCare here in the United States while, over in the UK, we’re being offered a terrifying glimpse of our future.

It’s John McCain’s America, so Washington is thrilled and you’re screwed

I meant what I said last week about praying for John McCain to beat his cancer. I still do.

I also mean this: John McCain is a traitor to everything he has fooled people for years into thinking he stands for. John McCain is not for free markets. John McCain is not for individual freedom. John McCain is not for solving problems.

John McCain, venomous hypocrite and liar, dooms ObamaCare repeal - here’s what he said about it for

“John McCain is leading the fight against ObamaCare.”  That was the message when Senator McCain - a now-proven liar and a hypocrite - was running for re-election.

Growth in Rooftop Installations Expected to Decline This Year

Rooftop solar installations have seen explosive growth, but that growth explosion is expected to change this year. Bloomberg News Energy Finance projects a 2.4 percentdecline in new residential installations.¹

Battle stations! The voter purges are coming!

One of the Left’s favorite scare tactics is to claim that Republicans want to ruthlessly purge members of Democrat-friendly demographic groups from the nation’s voter rolls.

They claim Republicans want to do this because they hate minorities and the poor. This is simply propaganda but it persists election cycle after election cycle.

Left Claims Hitler-Style ‘Indoctrination’ in Trump’s Boy Scouts Speech

To the left, the big takeaway from President Trump’s speech to the Boy Scouts is that the Boy Scouts look a lot like the Hitler Youth.

They have uniforms. They cheer the leader when he speaks. They are proud of their country and way of life. They think they are preserving something important for tomorrow – or even a thousand years of tomorrows.

Violent rhetoric, deeds from the Left

Some rare good news came out of Washington this week when House Majority Whip Steve Scalise (R-La.) was released from MedStar Washington Hospital after multiple surgeries from a gunshot wound, and was in “good spirits” and “looking forward to his return to work,” according to a statement by the hospital.

SHOWDOWN AT THE TEMPLE MOUNT

Strange as it may seem, the current rioting by Arabs in Jerusalem may be a blessing in disguise.

First, it will force the government to assert its sovereign authority over the Temple Mount.

Democrat candidate for Minneapolis mayor: Let’s take the guns away from the police

This is the logical next step for the left on this, isn’t it? Well, let’s slow down on it a little bit and look at their big-picture strategy, since the left often thinks it’s won more people over to its point of view than it really has.

CNN published 2014 op-ed by Wasserman Schultz’s on-the-lam IT guy lecturing against ‘Islamophobia’

Now this is good stuff. Today Imran Awan is known mainly as the former IT staffer to Debbie Wasserman Schultz who was busted trying to leave the country to escape charges of bank fraud. Rob covered it in detail yesterday, but while Awan’s name is relatively new to most of us, he’s an old friend of CNN.

So-called ‘skinny repeal’ might be the only scenario that can pass the Senate

There’s no way to put a happy face on this. The Republican-controlled Senate is not 100 percent populated by frauds and poseurs. But it has enough of them that with only 52 members in the first place, there’s no way it can cobble together 50 votes to do anything serious to deal with ObamaCare.

DOJ - Title VII Does Not Include LGBT

WASHINGTON, D.C. —The U.S. Justice Department (DOJ) filed an amicus brief in Zarda v. Altitude Express yesterday at the U.S. Federal Court of Appeals, which contends that Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 bans gender discrimination, but does not include sexual orientation or gender identity, in the workplace.

Volkswagen Trendline

“Slide Through Summer” escape.

With summer officially upon us, we wanted to reach out to share this amazing staycation as the world’s largest Marriott - Orlando World Center Marriott - invites friends and families to stop squandering vacation days and live it up with a “Slide Through Summer” escape.

NanoVelcro microchips could someday noninvasively diagnose prenatal conditions

Many pregnant women undergo some form of prenatal testing before their children are born. The information that expectant mothers gain from these tests vary, from the baby’s gender to genetic defects. But the tests are often invasive, which can potentially harm the fetus and the mother. Now, one group reports in ACS Nano that they have developed a device that provides sensitive results but in a less invasive way: a blood test.

The Revolution of Vatican II was Misinterpreted?

It is often voiced by conservatives disheartened by the changes in the Catholic Church that Vatican II was a good council, but that it was misinterpreted. If these good people were better informed as to what took place at the Council, they would never say any such thing. Though Vatican II started with the best resolves, it was hijacked in the opening session by rebel bishops because the pope had planned the Council without their advice and against their designs.

GM considers pulling the plug on the Chevy Volt

The Chevy Volt was unveiled in 2010 to great fanfare. Politicians hailed it. The media gushed over it. The first electric car manufactured domestically, it was instantly a cause celebre, and it was hailed as part of the resurrection of General Motors.

The $1,000,000 Surgical Error

Many years ago I wrote, “The problem with laparoscopic (keyhole) surgery is it leaves the impression that tiny incisions mean a simple, uncomplicated way to perform an operation. Unfortunately, this is not always the case as catastrophic complications can happen.”  Recently, a Canadian Medical Protective Association (CMPA) survey confirmed the potential dangers of keyhole surgery. So what went wrong to cause a $ 1,000,000 settlement?
