"NY Times Should Interview Bill’s Alleged Female Victims" During an interview today, Bill Clinton’s rape accuser Juanita Broaddrick suggested the New York Times spend the same amount of energy investigating claims of sexual assault against Bill Clinton that the newspaper put into probing Donald Trump’s alleged past treatment of women.

During an interview today, Bill Clinton’s rape accuser Juanita Broaddrick suggested the New York Times spend the same amount of energy investigating claims of sexual assault against Bill Clinton that the newspaper put into probing Donald Trump’s alleged past treatment of women.

<p>The New York Times’ front-page article last Saturday on Donald J. Trump’s dealings with women forced me into a weekend of self-examination. As much as I support Trump, this isn’t a cult of personality. He’s not Mao, Kim Jong-un or L. Ron Hubbard. We can like our candidates, but still acknowledge their flaws. No one’s perfect.</p>

EVERY RAPE VICTIM DESERVES TO BE HEARD -- EXCEPT BY HILLARY CLINTONMay 11, 2016 In a campaign built on lies, it should not be a surprise that the central theme of Hillary's campaign is the biggest lie of all. Someday, it will be the subject for a graduate thesis whether reporters who were in diapers when Bill Clinton was president simply don't know the truth or, in their zeal to see Hillary elected, are obscuring the truth. The media portray Bill Clinton as a lovable scamp, a good ol' Southern boy who just liked to have sex in the back...

Columnist and author of “Adios, America,” Ann Coulter declared House Speaker Representative Paul Ryan (R-WI) “the next Eric Cantor” on Friday’s broadcast of HBO’s “Real Time.” Coulter said of Ryan, “He is so hated by the base. … He’s the next Eric Cantor, who was the highest member leadership ever to lose in a primary.”

So now I have a roommate at the Republican national convention in Cleveland in July – my wife. She was elected yesterday from North Attleboro as a Donald Trump delegate to the national GOP convention. Unfortunately for Dyin’ Ted Cruz, she is not a double agent for him or any other Canadian-born RINO’s. “I got more votes than anybody else!” my spouse bragged to me last evening, and she told me to put her quote into the paper – or else. Yesterday’s Congressional caucuses were yet another sad day for the GOPe here in Massachusetts. Weekends are when the Cruz...

The shift of power from Lewandowski to Manafort began from the moment the latter arrived on the scene, in late March. Manafort exudes authority, even down to the way he calls the candidate “Donald” (Lewandowski says “Mr. Trump,” even in private). Manafort also developed a bond with the Trump family. “Paul has a robust relationship with Jared, Ivanka, and the boys,” a staffer says. The takeover was cemented over the weekend when Manafort called a senior staff meeting at Trump Tower. The meeting, first reported by Politico, and which I confirmed, sent a message to staff that Manafort, not Lewandowski,...

Conservative commentator Ann Coulter, a staunch supporter of Donald Trump, “hates” the new Trump. Coulter tweeted Friday that she wishes “Trump would go back to retweeting juvenile photos of Heidi Cruz.” “I hate the new Manafort and Black Trump,” she added. Trump’s convention manager Paul Manafort on Thursday told members of the Republican National Committee that the GOP presidential front-runner is “evolving.” “The negatives will come down, the image is going to change,” Manafort said. Trump hired Manafort weeks ago to oversee the campaign’s delegate efforts. He has since been promoted to convention manager. Once a regular on the Sunday...

The Revolutionary contributions of Andrew Jackson, who, today, was kicked off the $20 bill: Jackson and his two older brothers enlisted in the Revolutionary Army as soon as war broke out. Andrew was 12 or 13. Scots Irish. Couldn't miss out on a war for his country with that breeding. The Brothers Jackson fought in the bloodiest battles of the Carolinas, the most ruthless theatre of the entire war. Oldest brother died in the Battle of Stono Ferry. Andrew & Robert were taken prisoner, Andrew’s brother dying shortly thereafter of smallpox. Jackson was ordered into valet service of a Brit...

Sen. Ted Cruz claims that Roger Stone, The Daily Caller Men’s Fashion editor, “decides” what Matt Drudge posts on his website Drudge Report.In an interview with Mike Slater on “The Mike Slater Show” Monday, Cruz said, “If people want to get on the “Trump train,” they can. I actually think we need real and meaningful solutions to the problems in this country, and as president my focus is going to be on three things: jobs, freedom and security.”Slater asked Cruz what he thought of the Drudge Report and the Texas senator replied, “Look, Drudge Report over the years has done a good...

Talk radio host Mark Levin, who has endorsed Republican presidential candidate Texas Senator Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX), declared, “I am not voting for Donald Trump. Period” and “count me as never Trump” on Friday. Levin said that a couple of years ago, the Senate Conservatives Fund contacted his publisher to buy old copies of his book, “Liberty & Tyranny” to promote membership, something he wasn’t involved in. Levin defended this as “perfectly legitimate,” and done by many groups and authors, and as far as he knew, wasn’t bulk buying, and didn’t impact any lists. He further stated that whatever money...

MOONIES FOR CRUZ April 6, 2016 Congratulations to Ted Cruz for winning his fourth primary! Usually Donald Trump wins the primaries -- where you go and vote, like in a real election. Cruz wins the caucuses -- run by the state parties, favored by political operators and cheaters. Until now, the only primaries Cruz has won are in Texas (his home state), Oklahoma (basically the same state) and Idaho (where Trump never campaigned). So now, Cruz has finally won an honest-to-goodness primary. This is great news for him, provided: (1) the general election is a caucus, and (2) the national...

Conservative author and columnist Ann Coulter laid out how she thinks the White House is planning to subvert Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign, push Vice-President Joe Biden to the nomination and name Attorney General Loretta Lynch to the Supreme Court. Coulter, during an interview with Chris Stigall on Talk Radio 1210 WPHT, said the process begins with charges emanating from the investigation into the former Secretary of State’s private email server. “[James] Comey goes ahead, the FBI Director, because this egregious, indicts Hillary, but then this has to go to the Attorney General. Valerie Jarrett, who is very close to Obama,...

To the extent it’s still standing after yesterday, the Stop Trump movement is comforting itself with the world’s biggest lie: that John Kasich is the embodiment of the Republican Party, while Donald Trump is the bastard stepchild. It’s exactly the opposite. It is no longer a question of what the party wants. The voters — remember them? — keep showering Trump and Cruz with Ceausescu-like percentages. The combined vote for Trump and Cruz is a ringing chorus of what this party wants: a wall, deportation, less immigration and no job-killing trade deals. In other words, what the party wants is...

Defending the nation from attempt to dissolve our borders: Drudge, Breitbart, me, Mickey Kaus and 5 talk radio hosts.

If you’re into self-dramatization, Donald Trump’s candidacy is perfect for you. Half of the Washington political class is vowing to vote for Hillary — even Stalin! — over Trump; psychologists (and massage therapists) report they are treating patients for “Trump anxiety”; lengthy thought-pieces on Trump have no room to mention his signature issue, immigration, but get prolix on George Wallace, Mussolini and Hitler. (Never Mao, Stalin or Lenin, curiously.) You’re going to have to act quickly if you hope to be among the first 200 princesses to feel the pea under 15 layers of mattresses. To save you time, I...

Conservative commentator Ann Coulter downplayed Republican front-runner Donald Trump's controversial comments on abortion and his dismal polling with women Tuesday, arguing that his immigration platform will protect women from the "Latin American rape culture." Trump faced serious criticism from both sides of the abortion debate last week for briefly floating the idea that a woman could face punishment for having an abortion, should it become illegal. Trump quickly walked the comment back, but Coulter said Tuesday on MSNBC that the premise of the question was irrelevant. "If Donald Trump was running for state legislature in the year 2060 after Roe...

"The only question for Republicans is: Which candidate can win states that Mitt Romney lost?" "Trump is saying he’ll bring in lots of new people, as he has throughout the primaries. In the Florida GOP primary, for example, Trump got nearly half a million more votes than Romney did in 2012 — and about half a million new people voted. Trump may be wrong, but it’s insane to say that it’s impossible for him to bring out new voters."

When your most loyal media supporter is saying youÂ’re mental, it should send a message to any normal campaign that you ought to reconsider your course. On Face the Nation on Sunday, I argued that prior to the past week, Donald Trump had made just one tactical mistake: skipping the last debate before Iowa. This past week they made two: failing to grasp the importance of delegate operations and engaging in a misguided and unnecessary attack on Heidi Cruz. The former is the bigger mistake: the Cruz delegate operation is forcing Trump to get to the delegate majority by working...
