It was just as scary as you can imagine,” Meunier told ABC affiliate WZVN. “It was standing in front of me and I tried to turn left real quick and get back in the house, and caught an uppercut from a brown, or a...

Hey Chris: it’s the difference between a photo of someone robbing a safe, and a photo of an empty safe . . . The allegations against former Trump aide Rob Porter are serious. There is reason to believe that he physically abused his former wives. That said, Chris Cuomo has ignored a big difference in the photos involved in the two cases. On CNN this morning, Chris Cuomo said that Pres. Trump is “playing favorites,” given his strong reaction to the photo of Al Franken groping a woman and his muted reaction to the photo of a former wife of...

How did the story of the Warner text messaging get into the media bloodstream? Who was the ‘entity’ who investigated, discovered, and eventually released the Warner messaging?

Joy Reid has falsely implied that the accusations of sexual misconduct made against Bill Clinton by, among others, Paula Jones and Juanita Broaddrick, have been "adjudicated" at great public expense to be false. On her MSNBC show this today, Reid said: "Was Donald Trump careful when he and his friend Roger Stone brought the accusers of Bill Clinton — something that was adjudicated into the tens of millions of dollars by the American taxpayer -- he brought those women to one of the debates just as a way to troll Hillary Clinton. I don’t think that he was being careful...

Some of us who actually were privileged to have black fathers in the home were at one point told to do the best we could in life as to open the doors for those who followed behind us. This is clearly not the case today and the latest example comes from the 2018 Winter Olympics. How is Shani Davis' example of over-inflated ego, entitled, racebaiting, spoiled brat behavior going to make it easier for a future black Olympic hopeful to be looked at with anything but hesitation; not because he or she may or may not be a qualified athlete...

You've seen the news reports. Sadly, so many on the right share them with glee. Yes, there are many people leaving blue states because of the high taxes, failing schools, tolerance (if not enabling) of illegal aliens, high crime, etc. The problem is too many believe liberals are not only fleeing for the same reasons, but have finally seen the errors of their ways and are now going to participate in Republican politics and vote accordingly. Big WRONG.

In our nation's ongoing quest to show diversity and inclusion as demanded by the left, people who use the race card, especially the now-trendy black-female card, show incompetence in delivering what they promise but are quite competent in absconding with the taxpayer's money. As usual, when it comes to access to millions of taxpayer dollars in Washington, D.C., it all depends on who you know and we've seen it before. Five years later, we apparently still have the incompetent mixing with federal government access to millions of taxpayer dollars and a failure to deliver the goods as promised and a...

Joe Scarborough wants a “regulation” to be adopted that would force Facebook to inform readers of “lies” contained in Republican Facebook posts. Said Scarborough on today's Morning Joe: “As we’re talking about how 55% of Americans get their news from Facebook, and we talk about regulations that need to be put in place, there should be a threshold where they have to send out a blast to every Facebook subscriber that got these false stories [from Republicans] that the story they got was a lie.” Get the rest of the story and view the video here.

He got a job with fixed term contract and told his friend. His friend also wants a job where he works and she applied for a position in the same company. She is now being interviewed for the permanent position and he is jealous. He knows it's bad. Jealousy is one of the seven deadly sins and many people are plagued with this passion. Most people will probably say no if you ask them if they are jealous of something. But they don't realize jealousy can plague us in casual life situations without us knowing about it specifically. Today I...

Let's face it, nobody but my mother-in-law likes phone solicitors. She'll talk to them for hours and the Jehovah's Witnesses that knock on her door every Saturday morning. She once hung up on my wife because the Jehovah's witnesses were knocking on the door. But this is mostly about handling phone solicitors. The phone rings. You know immediately it's a solicitor. Homeowner: This is Chief Inspector Flanagan from Homicide. You've called in the middle of a crime scene investigation. The homeowner was found dead a short while ago. But while you're on the phone, let me ask you some questions...

Over the past several years, political movements have been a dime a dozen. After the economy crashed in 2008, we saw the rise of the Tea Party and Occupy Wall Street. Those two movements eventually petered out, but that made room for the overwhelming torrent of political movements that sprang up both before and after Trump’s election. On the right, there are anti-immigration movements, pro-life movements and movements based on patriotism and the support of Western values. On the left, there is Black Lives Matter, Antifa, Democratic Socialism, 3rd Wave Feminism, BAMN and a plethora of other lesser known political...

After a dozen years of living in Los Angeles, hit-and-runs by illegals was reported almost daily on local news so when the initial report came in Sunday morning, it sounded eerily familiar. Also familiar was the pro-illegal-DACA activists who ironically blamed a public whose representatives have cavalierly allowed lawbreakers into our country for decades.

Remittances to Mexico Hit All-Time High Mexican-Americans sent home a record $28.1 billion in remittances in 2017—an increase of 6.6 percent from 2016. Mexico was the largest single destination for remittance payments from America last year, while China was a distant second ($15.4 billion). That being said, Mexico is far from being an outlier. Latin America absorbed roughly half of all America’s remittance outflows, which totaled nearly $140 billion in 2017. Furthermore, over $50 billion in remittances were sent to Mexico and Central America alone: Guatemala received $6.8 billion in remittances, El Salvador $4.2 billion, the Dominican Republic $4.1 billion,...

It’s time for us to take a lesson from Black Lives Matter: Do … not … engage. This chant, sometimes heard at rallies, is taken by some as a positive — as in: don’t beat on opponents. But there’s another side to it: don’t argue. Just assert your grievance and keep repeating it until you get what you want. Example: The University of Southern California apparently must renounce what it calls the white horse that carries the Trojan around the stadium at football games. Why? It’s a symbol of white supremacy. ...

The second suspect in the Las Vegas Massacre has been charged. Douglas Haig said in an interview today he had met with Stephen Paddock three times, but in his first interview he said he had nothing to do with him at all. He has changed his tune. Haig is clearly afraid, saying he knew when the Las Vegas police served their warrant they wanted to find some type of link between him and Paddock. I am not accusing Haig, but he did have a connection to Paddock. He sold ammunition to him and met him three different times – one...
