    Barack Obama and Democrats lied for years about how Obamacare would save you money and not affect your health care choices. Obama famously told Americans, “You can keep your plan if you like your plan.” That was probably the most memorable line of his presidency – and it was a bald faced lie. Obamacare was forced into law with 100% of the votes coming from Democratic lawmakers. This week we learned premiums would increase an average of 22% this year. Here are the average increase in premiums in battleground states. -Ohio: 13.12% increase -Florida: 17.40% increase -Pennsylvania: 32.5% increase -Nevada:...

    (WND) – State looks to allow men who identify as women to use restroom of choice A move by the state of Iowa to classify churches as “public accommodations” and require them to allow men who say they are women to use women’s restrooms is causing an “objectively reasonable” fear that they will be prosecuted, a federal judge has ruled. U.S. District Judge Stephanie Rose refused to dismiss a case brought by the Fort Des Moines Church of Christ against the state’s Civil Rights Commission, finding that the church already was self-censoring its statements because of a fear of prosecution....

    Monday in an appearance on CNN’s “New Day,” Rep. Steve King (R-IA) made the argument that claims of election rigging cannot be completely dismissed. He told “New Day” host Chris Cuomo there was “significant evidence” of voter fraud. “There’s significant evidence out there that there’s voter fraud,” King said. When challenged by Cuomo that making such claims were dangerous, King explained that one couldn’t be completely dismissive of the possibility and cited a number of examples from over the past two decades to back up his argument. “I wouldn’t say it is completely unsubstantiated,” he replied. “Partially unsubstantiated – I...

    TOLEDO, Iowa (AP) — They were, says Denise Kirchner, “the worst three hours of my life” — the agonizing moments after her son accidently shot her and her 14-year-old daughter Madison while cleaning his semi-automatic gun in their Iowa home. Madison skirted death, but survived. She is living proof, her mother says, of what can happen when otherwise responsible gun owners have a safety lapse. Dylan, 18, had been trying to remove a bullet from the chamber of the .40-caliber handgun when it fired, Toledo Police Chief Bob Kendall said.

    The Republican National Committee provided new voter registration numbers to Breitbart News: Florida Net:  +261,715 Iowa Net:  +38,913 Nevada Net:  +12,720 North Carolina Net:  +173,785 Pennsylvania Net:  +223,552 The Pennsylvania number is especially significant. Republicans signed up 30,000 people there in September alone. The Trump campaign in Pennsylvania is fired up but did not want to go on record at this time, in part because Generals MacArthur and Patton would not telegraph to the enemy their next moves. Absentee ballot requests are going up for the GOP Florida: 335,000 more requests for absentee ballots among Republicans Iowa: The Iowa Trump...

    The Democratic candidate for Senate from Iowa was forced to ask a group of journalists to explain what a sanctuary city is during an editorial board interview earlier this week with the Sioux City Journal, the Washington Examiner has learned. Patty Judge, who is challenging incumbent Republican Sen. Chuck Grassley, was asked about her position on sanctuary city policies, only to respond: "I am really not clear in my mind what a sanctuary city is.".. Judge also drew a blank when she was asked about Sarah's Law....The legislation was named after Sarah Root, a 21-year-old Iowan killed earlier this year...

    A small crowd greeted Democrat nominee Hillary Clinton’s daughter Chelsea at a campaign stop in Sioux City, Iowa on Tuesday. At the Orpheum theater, Chelsea defended her mother and attacked Republican Presidential nominee Donald Trump to a crowd reported to include just 125 people. Chelsea Clinton told those in attendance that she doesn’t want to live in a country with what she called the “demeaning speak” of Trump. “The demeaning speak against Americans with disabilities, against women, against minorities, against Muslims, against immigrants, against our veterans, against a gold-star family,” Clinton said. “None of that is the country that I...
