Fox News contributor and former Speaker Newt Gingrich raised the prospect of election fraud on the eve of the Virginia gubernatorial election. Right now the race between Republican candidate Glenn Youngkin and Democratic candidate Terry McAuliffe is very close, and Youngkin’s chances of winning have increased. Sean Hannity asked Gingrich Monday night, “Does Youngkin need to win for this to have the maximum impact? What if it’s really tight?” “If it’s really tight, they’ll steal it,” Gingrich responded. “So you can’t afford to have a really tight election. You have to win by a big enough margin they can’t steal...

Congresswoman Liz Cheney’s office responded to Tucker Carlson by posting the email exchange they had with Fox News. Carlson is dropping a documentary on Fox Nation next week called “Patriot Purge,” and the absolutely insane trailer released this week features someone describing January 6 as a “false flag.”..... Cheney spokesman Jeremy Adler shared the exchange on Twitter and said, “He completely omitted the rational reason why Liz Cheney won’t participate in his dangerous efforts. Isn’t the liar and the coward the person who is unwilling to tell his viewers the truth about both the 2020 election and January 6th?”

Former Congresswoman Donna Edwards told Chris Matthews tonight that President Donald Trump is engaging in rhetoric from “the Nazi playbook,” after he said Trump’s rhetoric is “Hitlerian.” Matthews showed the clip of Fox News’ Chris Wallace telling Mick Mulvaney that the use of words like “infested” “sounds like vermin” and “sub-human.” He said the use of such rhetoric aimed at Congress members of color shows a pattern. After praising Wallace, Matthews said, “‘Infested.’ It’s ‘vermin.’ It’s a Hitlerian term… He’s obsessed with this thing about cities.”

Student survivors of the horrific Parkland, FL school shooting spoke on multiple Sunday shows today, and one of the students had a very direct message for President Trump. Trump claimed yesterday that Democrats “didn’t want to” solve the gun problem. David Hogg, who said the day after the shooting that “children will continue to die if we don’t take a stand now,” looked into the camera on CBS’ Face the Nation and said this to the President: “President Trump, you control the House of Representatives, you control the Senate, and you control the executive. You haven’t taken a single bill...

Former New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg announced today that he will not be seeking a third-party run for the presidency because he does not want to be responsible for helping elect Ted Cruz or Donald Trump. There's been lots of talk about Bloomberg prepping for a third-party run if the Democrats nominated Bernie Sanders and the Republicans nominated either Cruz or Trump. But with Hillary Clinton looking more and more inevitable, Bloomberg apparently feels he doesn't have to step in as the savior anymore. He writes, "The current presidential candidates are offering scapegoats instead of solutions, and they are promising...

At tonight's Fox News debate, Bret Baier confronted Donald Trump over former NSA/CIA Director Michael Hayden's recent remarks that the military would flat-out refuse to follow illegal orders of his... The Donald insisted, "I'm a leader, I've always been a leader. I've never had any problem leading people. If I say do it, they're going to do it." ...

Fox Business Network anchor Lou Dobbs really lost his cool with Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan tonight, calling them a “twosome from hell” who are selling out their party. He said on his FBN show tonight that Romney’s anti-Donald Trump speech and Ryan’s public comments are further proof of how they’re trying to “defend a stagnant failed status quo.” “This time,” Dobbs declared, “they’re up against a winner and Trump is the people’s choice to this point, and the twosome from hell is about to lose another one if they have their way.”

Bill O’Reilly briefly weighed in on the Donald Trump KKK controversy and dismissed it out of hand.

Glenn Beck had some harsh words for Sarah Palin tonight following her endorsement of Donald Trump. Back in September, Beck went off on Palin for playing nice with Palin, declaring that he's "embarrassed" that he ever supported her because she's "become a clown." He apologized for that word choice but still trashed her "love affair" with Trump. On Facebook tonight, Beck lamented how Palin has abandoned her principles to back someone who supported big government up until last year.

After Hillary Clinton was confronted by a #BlackLivesMatter protester last night over mass incarceration, #WhichHillary started to blow up on Twitter, and by this afternoon it's become a huge trending topic. Ashley Williams, the activist in question, featured #WhichHillary on the giant sign she held up. She was upset mostly by Clinton's comments about "superpredators" back in the 90s, which Mediaite's own Tommy Christopher was an unfair assessment of what she said when she was first lady. It started out with people calling out Clinton's flip-flops on criminal justice, but soon morphed into an all-purpose trend for people to call...

Remember how Donald Trump famously said that he could literally shoot someone and his supporters wouldn't leave him? Well, he's at it again. During a pre-caucus rally in Nevada today, Trump said that "even the really dishonest press" talks a lot about the incredible loyalty of his supporters. CLICK ABOVE LINK FOR THE VIDEO "Sixty-eight percent," Trump said, "would not leave under any circumstance. I think that means even murder, I think it means anything, okay?" He also made sure to tell the people in the room "I love you." Watch above, via Politico.

The Bernie Sanders campaign released a statement earlier tonight targeting the “corporate” media for not giving Sanders the coverage he deserves. A recent study on media coverage of all the candidates found that not only is it dominated by Donald Trump, but he himself is getting far more coverage than Sanders, Hillary Clinton, and Martin O’Malley combined.

Fox’s Eric Bolling tonight––guest-hosting The O’Reilly Factor––said that the Republicans criticizing Donald Trump are basically on the same side as Hillary Clinton and the liberal media.As far as Bolling’s concerned, Trump’s all-Muslim ban isn’t really that bad of an idea, partly because it’s not hurting him in the polls.He asked, “Is this a mistake for the other GOP contenders to line up on the same side as Hillary Clinton and the media?… You’re forcing the American public, the GOP to choose. A lot of them don’t like liberals or the media.”Simon Rosenberg still said it was a bad idea because...

Rush Limbaugh really went off on GOP leaders today for agreeing to a bipartisan budget deal. The House is voting on the deal today, and Limbaugh and plenty of other conservatives aren’t happy about Republicans coming together with President Obama on this. Limbaugh said the real bipartisan deal going on here is the one “to destroy conservatism.” He declared, “I have the idea they would be happier with Hillary Clinton as president than Ted Cruz, and that’s not a feeling. I know that almost for a fact.” Why? Because Limbaugh thinks Republican leadership is trying to render conservative ideas “as...

Fox News Sunday‘s Chris Wallace was a little baffled this morning as he confronted Ben Carson over whether he would get rid of Medicare. Carson insisted he would do no such thing and is merely proposing health savings accounts to “eliminate the need” for Medicare. Reports last week said that Carson would have the government put $2000 a year into everyone’s accounts. Wallace asked him if that means giving everyone the same amount of money. Carson said no, but Wallace said, “That’s what you were saying, sir.” When Wallace pressed him on his past indication he would eliminate Medicare, Carson...

Sarah Palin appeared on CNN this morning and defended Donald Trump after his less-than-stellar interview with Hugh Hewitt.Trump’s foreign policy-focused interview was pretty widely panned for The Donald’s loose grasp on the issues. On State of the Union this morning, Tapper asked Palin if she thought Trump got “gotcha” questions.Palin said, “I’d rather have a president who is tough and puts America first than can win a game of Trivial Pursuit.”She added that the public doesn’t “give a flying flip” which specific leaders are overseeing specific regions anyway. Palin suggested a good metric to judge candidates by might be...

Whoa. Sorry to say this, but I have a negative article to post about Donald Trump today. Donald apparently had a dust-up with Michelle Malkin recently. Michelle Malkin. Worse it appears Donald started the dust-up. Although it appears both got involved. Very bad move, Donald. I'm going with Michelle Malkin, 100%, on this. If you had any sense Donald, you would apologize to the lady, and admit you were clearly out of bounds. On this, and her. Just my opinion. Donald, apologize to the lady! She's right, and you're wrong. I'm serious. You messed up this time.
