Dear Mr. Abrams, When you were younger, did your elders ask you questions like, "If you could have lunch with anyone in the world, who would it be?" I have a hunch your answers were a lot like mine: Jean-Luc Picard, or rather Data. Possibly Q. Definitely Princess Leia. Maybe Darth Vader. (On second thought, maybe not Vader. I feel like he’d be distinctly unimpressed with me.) Star Trek gave me hope. Star Wars was my happy place. Which makes you my hero. And a lot of other people's, too. You’ve rebooted both sacred franchises. You not only get paid...

Authorities in Granite Quarry are looking for the people responsible for littering several locations with Ku Klux Klan notes. Granite Quarry-Faith Joint Police Authority Chief Mark Cook told WBTV that someone dropped the fliers in various locations sometime before noon on Monday. The fliers, which start off with "Merry Christmas," go on to read "Join the Klan today and preserved the white Christian ways." Fliers without the Christmas message that read "Join The Klan And Save Our Land" were also reportedly dropped off at several places in Iredell County. The fliers are from the East Coast Knights of the True...

for not letting this lot travel to Disneyland – I wouldn’t either Nothing to see here ladies and gents, nothing to see. Just a family of eleven, off to Disneyland. A lovely big British family, off to the place where magic happens and Mickey Mouse makes dreams comes true. They’d saved hard to get together the £9,000 for flights to make their family happy at Christmas. But were turned away at the gate by ruthless officials from USA Homeland Security who said they were no longer allowed to board. At least, that’s the story you’d be believing if you listened...

Turned Monica Lewinsky 'Into A Humidor' [VIDEO] Political commentator Kurt Schlichter argued that with Hillary Clinton's enabling, Bill Clinton was able to turn "the Oval Office into a frat house and his intern into a humidor." Tuesday on CNN Newsroom hosted by CNN anchor Don Lemon, guests Terra Grant and Schlicher were discussing Donald Trump's comment that Barack Obama "schlonged" Hillary Clinton in 2008. When Schlichter kept bringing up Bill past sexual history, Lemon ended the interview early. Lemon asked Schlichter if it was appropriate for Trump to suggest Obama "schlonged" Hillary and Schlichter explained, "Don, it's going to take...

ome Donald Trump supporters are too ashamed to admit it, according to a new study that suggests that his poll numbers may be even higher than GOP strategists think. Researchers at the Morning Consult polling firm say that when they polled almost 2,500 Republican and Republican-leaning voters using a variety of methods last week, they found Trump's support was around 6% higher among those polled online, compared to those who spoke to a live human. His support was 4% higher among those who received automated calls. In what the Los Angeles Times calls the "most telling part of the experiment,"...

Detailing How Liberal America Has Become Hat tip to the Heidi Harris Show on News Talk 720 KDWN/Las Vegas, NV

Last week, I presented some college students with a petition urging radio stations to stop playing the holiday classic "White Christmas" because the song only focuses on "White" Christmases. This clearly makes it racially insensitive, since it completely ignores Christmases of other colors. Students were all too willing to check their privilege and take a stand against Bing Crosby's racially charged micro-aggression. Just watch.

Students at an ultra-liberal Ohio college are in an uproar over the fried chicken, sushi and Vietnamese sandwiches served in the school cafeterias, complaining the dishes are “insensitive” and “culturally inappropriate.” Gastronomically correct students at Oberlin College — alma mater of Lena Dunham — are filling the school newspaper with complaints and demanding meetings with campus dining officials and even the college president. General Tso’s chicken was made with steamed chicken instead of fried — which is not authentically Chinese, and simply “weird,” one student bellyached in the Oberlin Review. Others were up in arms over banh mi Vietnamese sandwiches...

An undeveloped, languishing New York state park named after Donald Trump should be renamed, two state legislators said Thursday, citing what they say are discriminatory proposals from the Republican presidential candidate. Sen. Daniel Squadron and Assemblyman Charles Lavine, both Democrats, said they will introduce legislation they're calling the "Anything but Trump Act" and want Gov. Andrew Cuomo to remove signs for the 440-acre site in Westchester County. The legislation comes after Trump proposed banning Muslim immigrants from the U.S. Trump donated the land to the state in 2006 after plans for a golf course fell through. Budget cuts prompted the...

Plantation, Florida files a lawsuit to shut down a massive Christmas light show; Jesse Watters investigates on 'The O'Reilly Factor'

Hahaha MRCs Dan Joseph got under Chris “Tingles” Matthews skin at the CNN GOP Debate asking if he still had that thrill up his leg for obama. The crap media will never admit obama and his radical agenda has been nothing short of a train wreck for the nation. If they think for one second they will be off the hook come Jan 2017 they better think otherwise. We are going to remind them of every stupid thing they have said and done protecting the worst president in US history. Tingles you better get used to this kind of abuse...

A millionaire businessman has been found not guilty of rape after claiming he accidentally penetrated her when he tripped and fell. Ehsan Abdulaziz, 46, was initially accused of forcing himself on the 18-year-old as she slept on a couch at his London flat after a night of drinking. The Saudi property developer said he had already had sex with the young woman’s 24-year-old friend and it was possible his penis may have been poking out of his underwear when he tripped. The Mirror reported the group had met at an exclusive West End club last year where he entertained them...

Donald Trump is being called racist because he believes Muslims should be denied entrance into the U.S. Is that a racist move or a national security move? Should it also be considered that it's not racist if terrorists can't enter and kill the people of color who also live in America?

Sanity — and Santa — have been restored at a Brooklyn public elementary school where St. Nick was banned, the Pledge of Allegiance was dropped and Thanksgiving was replaced with a "harvest festival." The good news arrived at PS 169 in Sunset Park on Monday morning, a day after The Post exposed the bizarre PC extremism of Principal Eujin Jaela Kim. District 15 Superintendent Anita Skop stormed in the front door at 9:50 a.m., and minutes later, two fifth-grade boys were brought to the main office to lead a recital over the public address system of the Pledge of Allegiance,...

This "barn find" was actually discovered under a shed, but that doesn't make it any less of a diamond in the rough. A rusty, but very original 1969 Dodge Charger Daytona that has seen much better days may be seeing them again soon, as it's set to cross the block at the upcoming Mecum Auctions event Kissimmee, Fla., in January. According to Mopar Muscle magazine, the big-winged muscle car was purchased earlier this year from its second owner, an Alabama man who bought it for $1,800 in 1974 and promptly had a set of flames painted on its front fenders...

Republican presidential candidate Ted Cruz took time on Saturday to wish Cher a Merry Christmas, even after the legendary singer offered the Texas senator a less Christian holiday message. Earlier on Thursday, Cher said on Twitter to her nearly 3 million followers, "As Judas was to Jesus, so is Ted Cruz to America. Read what he's written and watched what he's said, for years. He ALWAYS TERRIFIED ME." In response, Cruz wrote back to Cher, "Cher, thanks for the kind sentiments. And I wish you a Merry Christmas and a blessed New Year." Cher often airs out her political thoughts...

The party of handouts wants a taxpayer handout. Democrat National Committee Chairperson Debbie Wasserman Schultz drafted a plan demanding US taxpayers fund the DNC convention next year.
