On Thursday at the Media Research Center’s 30th Anniversary Gala featuring the 2017 DisHonors Awards, liberal actress Ashley Judd beat out stiff competition to win the “Kathy Griffin Celebrity Dumbass Award” with a deranged rant during the far-left Women’s March. Conservative syndicated talk radio host and WMAL personality Chris Plante was the presenter for this category and, after introducing each clip, he allowed audience members to vote for which one of four possible celebrities embarrassed themselves the most in the past year. Once Judd was deemed the winner in a landslide, Act for America Founder and Chairwoman Brigitte Gabriel accepted...

President Donald Trump went on yet another early morning Twitter spree Sunday, one of which included a retweet of an edited GIF depicting himself striking Hillary Clinton in the back with a golf ball. In the short video, Trump takes a swing with a golf club, knocking over a woman that appears to be Hillary Clinton as she enters a plane. "Donald Trump's amazing golf swing #CrookedHillary," the caption of the original tweet said, a reference to the term Trump coined about his vanquished opponent during last year's' presidential election. The GIF was part of several creations the Twitter user...

Kathy Griffin says that she is no longer sorry for disseminating a photo of her holding up a severed, bloodied head resembling President Donald Trump's. Griffin spoke with an Australian television show where she was asked about the controversy, and said she was not sorry for it. The fallen comedian blamed her career downfall on Trump supporters, despite the fact that Democrats, including a self-described friend, actress Debra Messing, and Chelsea Clinton condemned the photo

Kathy Griffin can't get her "sorry" straight. The comedian who tearfully apologized twice after a photo shoot of her holding a blooded Trump mask in May caused an uproar is not sorry now.  "I am no longer sorry, the whole outrage was B.S., the whole thing got so blown out of proportion and I lost everybody," Griffin told Australia's "Sunrise."  Griffin noted her friends like Debra Messing and Chelsea Cliton didn't stand by her at the time. "These Trump fans, they're hardcore," the 56-year-old said blaming President Trump supporters for the fall out. When "Sunrise" co-host Samantha Armytage brought up to...

Comedian Kathy Griffin says she’s “no longer sorry” for the President Trump beheading stunt that jeopardized her career. Ms. Griffin, who was investigated by the Secret Service and fired from her New Year’s Eve hosting gig at CNN after being photographed in May holding a Donald Trump mask covered in fake blood, said in a heated interview on Australia’s “Sunrise” TV program that she thinks the backlash was completely overblown. “I am no longer sorry, the whole outrage was B.S., the whole thing got so blown out of proportion and I lost everybody,” she said. “Like, I had Chelsea Clinton...

We can go back as far as The Dixie Chicks, George Clooney, Will Smith, or any number of Hollywood liberals who take their anti-Republican/American disdain overseas, but in their ignorant arrogance they fail to realize at the moment that their words always manage to make it back to the States. Kathy Griffin apologized profusely when she lost jobs and endorsements after being photographed with a mock-up of the severed head of President Donald Trump. It only took a few months to see and hear, once again, what a Hollywood liberal's word is worth.

Nothing is stopping Kathy Griffin. After what appears to be a fake hacking announcement on her Twitter on Saturday, the 56-year-old comedian released a video on Sunday announcing her "Laugh Your Head Off" world tour, with a video showing her smiling and ready to take the microphone. "Are you ready for me to say some things that are so horrible I can never take them back?" she asks. The video and her Twitter page also features a photo of the comedian holding a globe in a shot similar to her controversial one, where she held a bloodied replica of President...

At least 15 people are dead after the latest Islamic state assaults across Iraq. As Iraqi forces close in on ISIS, the group is now sending female suicide bombers to target soldiers. Two of Monday’s suicide attacks were successful, while seven other women wearing explosives were intercepted before they could approach troops.

When Kathy Griffin posed for a photoshoot holding a fake decapitated, bloody head of President Donald Trump in June, she likely didn’t think about the wide-reaching implications of her so-called “joke.” While her controversial stunt resulted in some serious professional consequences, it also earned her a lengthy visit from the U.S. Secret Service. Secret Service agents reportedly tracked down Griffin and interviewed her in person for more than an hour. Further, the investigation into the bloody head debacle remains open. Griffin’s attorney, Dmitry Gorin, has claimed the comedian was merely exercising her “First Amendment rights to tell a joke.” “When...

Mickey Rourke said he would "love 30 seconds in a room with the little bitch." Rourke has also expressed a desire to "give [Trump] a Louisville slugger." Larry Wilmore In late February 2016, the host of Comedy Central's now-canceled "The Nightly Show" joked about then-candidate Donald Trump: “I don’t want to give him any more oxygen. That’s not a euphemism, by the way. I mean it literally. Somebody get me the pillow they used to kill [Supreme Court Justice Antonin] Scalia and I’ll do it — I’ll do it!" George Lopez During the Republican primaries in March 2016, the Mexican...

A good deal of analysis has gone into James Hodgkinson, the Friend of Bernie and neosocialist wacko who tried to murder the Republicans in Congress by an act of terrorism. Yes, he hated Trump and all Republicans. Yes, he waxed poetic over high taxes and MSNBC. Yes, he was abusive to his foster children (one committed suicide by immolating herself with gasoline while the other ran away -- after Jimmy knocked her around -- and eventually died of a heroin overdose as a young adult.) Yes, he was estranged from his wife (gone since March to live in his van...

Satire: A Hugh Betcha Exclusive Interview “Americans just don’t appreciate good humor these days,” lamented Kathy Griffin in a hastily planned phone interview with Hugh Betcha, Ace Reporter for the StoosViews International Media Conglomerate. Hugh, winner of the CNN award for “Conservative Reporter We Would Most Like to Hang With, 2017,” a reporter respected on both sides of the aisle in Foggy Bottom, who walks with kings and princes—recently returning from the Mideast where he was asked to secretly broker a peace treaty between the Palestinians and Israel—is the go to guy when Hollywood wants publicity. Just finishing up his...

HBO host Bill Maher said Friday that Kathy Griffin made a mistake but "should not go away" following the furor over her joking about beheading the president. Maher delivered a fierce defense of making mistakes as a comedian "going for a laugh" on his show this week. He said that comedienne Griffin owes him "a fruit basket for getting her off the front page" after he caused an uproar for using the n-word on his HBO program the prior week. Griffin was fired from her annual New Year's Eve co-hosting gig by CNN last week after holding up a bloodied...

In the wake of Kathy Griffin holding up a mock severed head of President Trump, it's disturbingly obvious that murderous thoughts about our leaders are now considered by the left to be light, humorous fare, a balm for their anxieties. It's not just Trump. The latest issue of the French satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo arrived just before the British general election with a tasteless cover cartoon of British Prime Minister Theresa May holding her severed head in her arm. The title above translates to "Multiculturalism the English Way." It's why we're still with the hashtag #NeSuisPasCharlie. Griffin's assassination theme is...

Islamic State jihadis fighting to establish a caliphate in Marawi, the Philippines’ only “Islamic city,” released a video this week showing the complete destruction of the city’s St. Mary’s Cathedral.Islamic State (ISIS) terrorists affiliated with the local jihadi outfits, Maute group and Abu Sayyaf, overran the city in May, taking Christians hostage, killing anyone who could not recite Quranic verses, and flying the Islamic State flag over the city’s mosques. President Rodrigo Duterte imposed a 60-day martial law period over the entire island of Mindanao, where Marawi is located, and has launched an airstrike offensive against the terrorists.Philippine authorities believe that...

It was an undeniably awesome week when measured by the only metric that truly matters, the amount of pain inflicted upon liberals. Now, we are not sadists; we don’t delight in watching liberals suffer because their suffering itself makes us happy (Okay, it makes us a little happy). Rather, liberals’ misery is an important teaching aid that might succeed in instructing them in the folly of their poisonous, ridiculous ideology, since reason doesn’t work. And they had better learn and change their dangerous course before we all end up here. Also, some sanctimonious jerks who pretend to be conservative humiliated...

As we stumble into another outrageous attack on President Trump, we have finally said it is beyond the pale. People reacted with scorn and shock as Griffin stood there with an effigy of a bloody and beheaded Trump. Why were you shocked? Where did you think this was all heading (no pun intended)? The unhinged attacks on Trump have been devolving since he secured the nomination of the Republican Party. Upon his election the fusillade of attacks has been escalating. Instead of someone from the political opposition standing up and saying enough is enough they keep feeding the “resistance”. A...

Alinsky Rule #12. “Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it.” Cut off the support network and isolate the target from sympathy. Go after people and not institutions; people hurt faster than institutions. Tweets from a non-Alinskyite: Tweet from a leftist-Alinskyite:Next up, Kathy Griffin - because she, like Reza, knows who the real victim is here. And who is the real target. Let me just ask you two: What part of covfefe do you not understand? Posted from: MOTUS A.D.

Alec Baldwin on Friday defended comedian Kathy Griffin for the photograph she posed for with a severed head resembling President Trump. In a series of tweets , Baldwin, who frequently impersonates Trump on Saturday Night Live, recalled his own experience making a joke about a politician. “Dear Kathy Griffin, Kathy....baby...I've been there. The whole Henry Hyde thing [with] Conan, where we bring out an oxygen mask at the end? a joke. That's what I thought. That's what we intended. No one walked out of the studio and said, "No! We're serious!" No one,” Baldwin wrote, referencing comments he made in...
