Nancy Pelosi — oh, what a patriot! — defines ‘republic’ for we, the peons
Speaker Nancy Pelosi, defending her House's ridiculous call to impeachment arms, opened debate on the articles by referring to America as a "republic" -- a "republic if we can keep it" -- and by reciting the Pledge of Allegiance to the "republic" of America. My, what a patriot this Queen of Socialists has become. Nothing suspicious there, right? Published December 18, 2019

Lisa Page plus Rachel Maddow equals one heck of an anti-Trump ride
Lisa Page -- yes that Lisa Page, the one who ignited an anti-Donald Trump fire by seemingly, in messages to her adulterous lover Peter Strzok, giving a thumbs-up to intelligence plots to thwart his presidency -- is headed for an appearance on "The Rachel Maddow Show" on MSNBC. On your mark, get set, go. Trump Derangement Syndrome, times two. Published December 17, 2019

Barack Obama’s feminist nonsense
Former President Barack Obama, at a leadership event in Singapore that he attended with wife, Michelle, told the no-doubt adoring crowd that women were awesome, men were scum and people of the world, unite! It's time for the fairer sex to take over both boardrooms of business and power offices in politics. To paraphrase, that is. Published December 17, 2019
James Comey’s suspicious ‘Hail Mary’ to FISA
James Comey, in what some are seeing as an eye-widening surprise, others as cause to give this man back his street cred, has come forward on national television to pronounce himself "wrong," Inspector General Michael Horowitz "right," and the accusations of FBI-FISA shenanigans as "fair." But once again, the guy is strategizing. Published December 16, 2019
Virginia Dem mulls National Guard to enforce upcoming gun laws, an idea likely to end in violence
A Democrat remarking on the need for Virginia's new blue leadership to enforce looming gun controls with, perhaps, activation of the National Guard shows just how far the left will go to cut the Second Amendment -- just how violent the left is willing to get in order to bring about a radical anti-Second Amendment vision.

Impeachment grows hilarious
Impeachment is supposed to be a serious debate, a somber consideration, a process marked by deep analysis, solid reflection, big-picture thinking, and in the end, inclusive of the sort of grave decision-making that looks down the road to judge how it all might affect the republic. But Democrats have turned it into a laugh track. Published December 13, 2019
Lindsey Graham vows quick end to ‘crock’ of impeachment
After months and months of House impeachment charade, after years and years of leftist-pressed, Democratic Party pushed calls for impeachment, promises to impeach, insistence to impeach, impeach, impeach at all costs, wouldn't it be great, humorous, even, to see all that anti-Trump effort come to a grinding halt in the Senate?

Eric Holder, a partisan hack who dares rail at William Barr
Eric Holder penned a scathing piece in The Washington Post against today Attorney General William Barr, calling him, get this, hold the phone, grab a seat and take a breath -- "nakedly partisan." That's not pot calling kettle black. That's lousy, stinking, lying, spying, contemptuous partisan pitbull calling guy-doing-his-job black. Published December 12, 2019
Democrats — oops! — forgot ‘bribery’
Now the impeachment articles have come forward and strangely enough, what's most glaring is not what they contain, but what's missing. What they contain is "abuse of power" and "obstruction of Congress." What's missing are the key, long promised, long accused offenses, quid pro quo and bribery. Published December 12, 2019
Greta Thunberg scores with ‘Time,’ as activism replaces achievement
Greta Thunberg was named Time magazine's "Person of the Year" for 2019 because -- well, because, she has a cadre of left-leaners who saw in her the necessary theater skills to publicly shame an entire world of fossil fuel users while keeping a straight face. That's not how "Time" put it. But that's the truth. Published December 11, 2019
FBI guy calling for Trump to apologize should go see ‘Richard Jewell’
James Baker, the former general counsel for the FBI's James Comey, said now that the Justice Department's inspector general has released its report, that Donald Trump should step up and apologize. Are you kidding me? What a hoot. When has the FBI ever apologized? Let's ask Richard Jewell. Published December 10, 2019
The lie of Jesus as an open border advocate
Merry Christmas -- now open those dang borders: That's the message from a church in California, the Claremont United Methodist Church near Los Angeles, and its rage-in-a-cage seasonal nativity scene of Jesus, Mary and Joseph. What an outrage; what an offense to Christian truths. Published December 10, 2019
Louie Gohmert snaps at Jerry Nadler: ‘How much money’ are you making off impeachment?
Rep. Louie Gohmert, frustrated, outraged -- and rightly so, given the ridiculous direction of the House impeachment inquiry of President Donald Trump -- tried to insist Judiciary Chairman Jerry Nadler explain a too-strange-to-be-true process that allowed a witness to serve as questioner, and when he was shut down, snapped back: "How much money do you have to get [inaudible]?"

Barry Berke’s joke of a pro-impeachment speech
Barry Berke, the attorney for Judiciary Committee Democrats, spent considerable time during Monday's congressional impeachment inquiry making the case against Donald Trump by presenting, supposedly, all the facts and evidences and proofs and irrefutables of the president's "corrupt abuse of power," and so forth and so on. But like all the other pro-impeach voices the Democrats have brought, Berke's talk was all wisp, all smoke. Published December 9, 2019
Socialism starves, America feeds, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez lies
Socialist Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, in her normal screeching manner, just raised national hackles by saying people will starve -- starve! -- because the Agriculture Department is reeling in its food stamp giveaways. Stupid is as stupid does. Does anybody actually starve in America? That's a socialist country thing. Published December 7, 2019
Nancy Pelosi pulls impeachment rabbit from magic hat
So it's done. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, in a televised press conference with a message that surprised no one, said the Democrats are indeed going forward with impeachment.

Elizabeth Warren, making a loon list, checking it twice
"Medicare for All." The disappearance of private health insurance. A Planned Parenthood pink scarf at her inauguration. An end to the Electoral College. These are just some of the promises daffy Sen. Elizabeth Warren is bringing to the presidential table. Merry Christmas. Warren's making out her loon list of giveaways. Published December 5, 2019
