Harvey Weinstein, move over: Mariah Carey’s been accused
Mariah Carey, pop icon of the 1980s, has been accused of sexual harassment. Equal opportunity, right? Why should Harvey Weinstein have the corner on sexual-tied aggressions? Published November 8, 2017
Devin Patrick Kelley, dead shooter, now accused of rape
Devin Patrick Kelley, the dead shooting suspect in the First Baptist Church of Sutherland Springs massacre, has now been named by four women as a rapist and sexual harasser.

Virginia: Ed Gillespie not a Donald Trump referendum, but nod at Big Government
Ed Gillespie, Virginia's newest losing governor wanna-be -- who went down in flames to Democrat Ralph Northam -- will be talked about for days as the Voter Referendum on President Donald Trump. But his loss has less to do with Trump and more to do with Virginia's shifting demographics -- with Virginia's proximity to Big Government jobs. Published November 8, 2017
James Woods — bam! Take that, Barack Obama
Barack Obama, in a tweet aimed at furthering his gun control designs, reacted to the horrific murders of Texas church-goers by calling for God to bring on gun control. Leave it to Hollywood's James Woods to slap back that silly. Published November 7, 2017

Ted Lieu, a Democrat, snubs Texas victims for pretend angst
The Democratic Party's Ted Lieu, lawmaker from California, said he was so upset at the recent shootings of Texas church-goers that he couldn't even stand to stay on the House floor to take part in the somber moment of silence. He walked out. That's right -- he took his sorry, grandstanding, self-aggrandizing self and left the floor, mid-moment of silence. Published November 7, 2017
Anthony Weiner’s prison a summer camp for kids
Anthony Weiner, a name once synonymous with hubris and anti-Republican aggression, is now behind bars, paying a monthslong prison sentence for his sexual texting dalliances with an underage girl. Published November 7, 2017
Jeff Flake’s exit, stage right, includes shocking self-reflection
Sen. Jeff Flake, as everybody with even one eye on the political world knows, is leaving his seat at the end of his term, refusing to run for re-election. Why? 'Cause he can't win, that's why. But Flake's got a different view of that. And it's one that's firmly rooted in the world of delusion. Published November 7, 2017
Donald Trump’s Christian friends in Canada
Just a few days ago, I had the honor of serving as the keynote speaker at the Christian Heritage Party of Canada's 2017 Convention in Gatineau, Quebec. And one big takeaway from our neighbors to the north: They absolutely love President Donald Trump. Published November 6, 2017
Devin Patrick Kelley: An anti-Christian, atheist ‘outcast’
Devin Patrick Kelley, the 26-year-old who stormed First Baptist Church in Texas and shot and killed 26 and wounded scores more, was described by former school classmates as an "outcast" and atheist who used social media to mock Christianity. Published November 6, 2017
The New York Times, already with the ridiculous gun control line
The mourning for the Texas church victims is not yet over -- heck, it's barely begun -- and already, The New York Times, in all its left-leaning editorial board wisdom, is calling for gun control. The title says it all: "It's Not Too Soon to Debate Gun Control." Published November 6, 2017
America’s big border question for immigrants ought to be: What can you do for me?
Let's just cut through the clutter of all the border control proposals, packages, deals and discussions that have marked U.S. politics for the past, oh, let's say, gazillion campaign seasons, and narrow it down to one consideration and one consideration alone: What can you do for America?

Jake Tapper, CNN’s finest, defends ‘Allahu akbar’ as ‘beautiful’
Jake Tapper, of CNN fame, spoke in the aftermath of the terror attack in New York City by saying -- get this -- that the phrase "Allahu akbar," reportedly uttered by the suspected terrorist, is actually a phrase of beauty, in the right circumstances. Yes -- and in that vein, so was Heil Hitler, depending on the source and context of the utterance. Published November 1, 2017
Muslims to soon beat out Jews in U.S. population
There are about 3.35 million Muslims in the United States right now, according to recent Pew Research Center's Factank figures. But by 2050, that particular population is projected to grow -- from about 1 percent of the U.S. population to about 2.1 percent. If it does, that means America will be home to more Muslims than Jews. Just something to think about, post New York City terror attack -- a terror attack that we now know was committed by a radicalized Muslim who professed allegiance to ISIS. Published November 1, 2017
Donald Trump: ‘Enough!’ No more ISIS in America
President Donald Trump reacted to the terror truck attack in New York City with a stiff pledge to keep ISIS out of this country. He also slammed political correctness, a not-so-thinly veiled shot at the left that's constantly devalued and derided his border controls. Can we get an amen from the Democratic Party's many amnesty lovers, please? Published November 1, 2017
Fox News’ Tucker Carlson and the curious Podesta ‘snarling legal threat’
As Alice in Wonderland might say -- the trail of Robert Mueller's dog-sniffing into President Donald Trump-Russia collusion allegations keeps growing curiouser and curiouser. The latest is Fox News host Tucker Carlson said his cable network's reporting on the ties of the Podesta Group with Russia grew so hot that an attorney for Tony Podesta sent a "snarling legal threat." Transparency, anyone? Published October 31, 2017
Vladimir Putin would’ve picked Hillary Clinton, not Donald Trump, for president
Honestly, if Vladimir Putin were given the pick, who do you think he would've wanted in the White House in the first place, Hillary Clinton or Donald Trump? Savvy deal-making, self-interested Hillary? Or "Make America Great Again" and "America First" Trump? The smart money says Clinton, and so do the cooler heads and logical minds.

John Kelly’s right; Robert E. Lee was ‘honorable’
John Kelly, chief of staff for President Donald Trump, went on national television and called out the rampant removal of America's historical monuments from the public arenas as despicable, and -- bravely -- spoke of Robert E. Lee as an "honorable man." Let the howling from the left begin. Published October 31, 2017
Hillary Clinton, breathing easy now, hints at Trump impeachment
Hillary Clinton may not be running for any particular political seat right now, but she sure does know how to sling a political punch -- and boy, is she taking advantage of this Paul Manafort indictment thing. She's like that kid that hangs with the playground bully, coming in after the beating's been administered with a sharp kick to the guy on the ground, a "take that" jab when the guy's rendered defenseless.

Jesse Jackson, ever the opportunist, goes after NFL’s Bob McNair
Well, as just about everybody knows, no social justice campaign would truly be complete without an appearance from the Rev. Jesse Jackson. So now, here he comes, weighing in on the whole NFL anti-national anthem kneeling thang -- finding racism, as he's wont to do, where no racism actually exists. Published October 31, 2017
