Free Republic

I'm wondering, can anyone see a pattern in WikiLeaks of bigger and bigger revelations by more and more prominent Democrats? About two weeks ago there were leaks from Colin Powell, this week it is Podesta. I am not familiar enough about how prominent these Democrats are. I'm just hoping it is going to Cresendo into some giant final release before the election, but maybe there is no pattern at all in the way they are released. Your thoughts?

I'm curious of the demographic of who still listens to Glenn Beck. He used to speak Republican when they were much more united. After repeated betrayal by the establishment, millions of Republicans grew angry at the GOPe and began railing against them. Beck rode the anti-establishment wave preaching about how he was so much against the establishment. Finally, the ultimate anti-establishment candidate appears, and Glenn Beck has used most of his entire radio show time to speak against Donald Trump, even to the point saying "voting for Hillary is a moral choice." Today, I heard him on the radio for...

I've been here a long time and I try not to post vanities but this election has been unlike any election I can remember. For years, the Republican establishment has expected us to be good Republicans and support the parties nomination. I didn't like Romney but yet I voted for him and supported him because he was parties nominee and also because I did not want a second Obama term. I absolutely couldn't stand McCain but once again I supported the parties nominee against Obama. Sarah Palin as his running mate certainly didn't hurt but I would have voted for...

Here is what James O'Keefe just posted on Twitter: "This week we drop smaller bombs across the country. Next week we drop atomic bombs.James O'Keefe added, Our first tape drops tomorrow." YES, it'll might be yet another "nothing burger" but that's no fun. So, make your predictions of what you think he'll release (unless if you are going to predict a nothing burger)

I thought it was weird and surprising the moment I read that Paul Ryan would be campaigning with Trump. I'm wondering if he knew about the leak before he accepted to campaign. That way he could act shocked and revolted and aim for maximum impact by canceling the campaign. Does anyone know how long Ryan's pro-Trump rally had been scheduled for?

Have been watching the Vice President Debate. Gov. Mike Pence was grace under fire. Sen. Tim Kaine was sure acting snarky. The debate moderator was either helping Sen. Kaine or simply lost control. It got so bad I had to turn it off. At least it will show folks how calm Gov. Pence even when the questions were focused on Mr. Donald J. Trump.

So supposedly Wikileaks might release a Hillary bombshell on Tuesday. So what do you predict their worthless or damning release might be? What do you HOPE it is?

Does anyone here have any experience with selling on Ebay? I just put an ad to sell an iPhone yesterday. I've received several requests to buy it right away and asked for my paypal account. Some have offered to pay even $150 more than my asking price. I've looked at many of these requests, and most of their accounts were created yesterday, so that makes me very wary of selling something to these guys. Is anyone familiar with ebay scams? I mean, is it common for someone to get their payment returned from Paypal some how after the item has...

So the first presidential debate is over. I didn't watch it, as I cannot stand listening to Hillary for even 5 seconds. But I was out and about today. I noticed a lot of Trump signs on lawns. Those signs weren't there last week. I live in a NE rust-belt state. Make of all that what you will.

May 2nd 2016 I was banned from FR for criticizing FR. Suddenly my account is active again. What happened? I post this in news/activism only because someone may have an answer and my account is "too new" to allow me to email Jim Rob to find out.

Does anyone here understand Beck's intense hatred for Trump? I mean he seems to have more in common in values with Beck than Hilary (pro-gun, pro-life, constitutionial justices.) So what rationale does he give for his hatred towards the man while he has the "oh whatever" attitude towards Hillary? Anyone know?

He brought Benghazi hero Mark "Oz" Geist with him: Trump Jr spoke to a good crowd of local supporters. He was sure to remind us WE'RE GONNA TURN COLORADO SOLID RED this year! A genuine speech that came from the heart, not from notes or teleprompters. The crowd was great. Even Trump Jr can pack a house far better than Hitlery. This deplorable had a blast, and can't wait to help deliver Colorado to our next President! Apologies for the fuzziness of the pics. Dang phone ain't so smart after all.

Episode 20: Hillary Clinton sits down with Zach Galifianakis for her most memorable interview yet.

Filmmaker Joel Gilbert, the creator of the “Super Trump” billboard that played in Times Square last week, has produced a satirical animated video in which Hillary Clinton is sent to an institution for treatment for being an “Ameriphobe.” An Ameriphobe, according to Gilbert’s video, is “a person who is offended by the traditional, patriotic idea of the United States of America as the exceptional ‘land of the free and home of the brave.’” The video begins with Clinton being admitted to a fictional “Donald Trump Clinic for Ameriphobia” on Jan. 23, 2017, three days after presumably Trump takes the oath...

Marion Cotillard has confirmed she is pregnant with her second child. But the 40-year-old vehemently denied having an affair with Brad Pitt after reports of cheating emerged amid the actor's split from Angelina Jolie this week. Cotillard wrote a lengthy Instagram message to make the announcement and to dispel rumours on Wednesday. 'This is going to be my first and only reaction to the whirlwind news that broke 24 hours ago and that I was swept up into,' the actress began, addressing reports she and Mr Pitt had sparked a romance during the filming of their new WWII drama Allied....

Assange has said he will release prior to the first debate information on Hillary that will require her to be indicted for criminal offenses. Among Bernie Sanders supporters, there is lots of talk that this included documentation that Bernie and his family were physically threatened with harm if Bernie did not withdraw from the Democratic Party Presidential nomination race. The campaign debates are next Monday and nothing so far?

Do you know what today is? Saturday, September 17, is of course a very important and underappreciated occasion which I believe should be a national holiday -- Constitution Day, the anniversary of the adoption of the U.S. Constitution in 1787. But it was on this date, September 14, that one of the most important provisions came into being, thanks to George Mason. It was Article V. "The Congress, whenever two thirds of both houses shall deem it necessary, shall propose amendments to this Constitution, or, on the application of the legislatures of two thirds of the several states, shall call...

Some people have speculated about how Hillary Clinton can appear in poor health one day and be out and about running around town like nothing is wrong only a few hours later. It seems that the mystery might finally be answered. Teresa Barnwell could be the body double for Hillary Clinton when the former first lady isn’t feeling up to par with making personal appearances. Hillary had to leave a 9/11 memorial service because she felt faint. She started to cough and needed to rest. Hillary went to her daughter’s apartment in New York. This is a woman who was...

People in this world are suffering, and Miley Cyrus is taking that very seriously — by ditching her publicist and skipping future red carpets. "[A year ago] I had to do the [‘A Very Murray Christmas’] premiere, and I will never do a red carpet again,” she tells Elle in its October issue. “Why, when people are starving, am I on a carpet that's red? Because I'm 'important'? Because I'm 'famous'? That's not how I roll. It's like a skit — it's like ‘Zoolander.’"See, Miley’s not “doing it” anymore, she says, and by “doing it” she means putting on an act, being disingenuous, having people suck...
