Current Missouri Attorney General Eric Schmitt (R) is hoping to snag a U.S. Senate seat in 2022 and has publicly shamed China for its communist ways within the past two years — seemingly aligning himself with the GOP’s “America First” priorities. But when Schmitt was a Missouri State Senator, he took quite the opposite posture and looked to partner with China in the hopes of bringing a thriving enterprise to the state. In 2011, Schmitt was one of the main proponents of Aerotropolis, more colloquially known as “China Hub,” a global cargo hub at Lambert-St. Louis International Airport which he...

Setting aside Iran’s ballistic missile threats, support for terrorism and regional destabilization when crafting the nuclear deal was not a concession but “strategic thinking” on the part of the negotiators, former Secretary of State John Kerry said Sunday. As he has done frequently since leaving office, Kerry used the opportunity of the Munich Security Conference to defend, at length, the Obama administration’s 2015 nuclear deal which President Trump has threatened to abandon. Kerry said that the U.S. recognized that the agreement being negotiated was not dealing with other problematic issues, including human rights abuses, missiles, arms shipments, support for Hezbollah,...

John Kerry — who ran against George W. Bush in 2004 — told Palestinian officials he is strongly considering taking on President Trump in the next election. He also discussed the administration’s efforts to discuss a peace deal between Israel and Palestine following the White House’s recognition of Jerusalem as Israel’s capital. Kerry had initially considered running in 2016, but ultimately decided against it. He previously lost the 2004 election after obtaining only 251 electoral college votes against Bush’s 286 votes.

Kerry scoffed at Trump's decision to pull out of the Paris deal, in hopes of finding a better agreement for America's interests. "That's like O.J. Simpson saying he's going to go out and find the real killer. Everybody knows he isn't going to do that because he doesn't believe in it," Kerry said. Kerry said on NBC that Trump is siding with libertarian billionaires Charles and David Koch in "denying science." "What does Donald Trump know that [Secretary of State] Rex Tillerson or President Xi [of China]... doesn't know?" Kerry said.

Especially since it proves how worthless the Paris agreement really is. John Kerry was very good at his job as Barack Obama’s Secretary of State, at least if you understand that job to be what Obama wanted it to be: Negotiating awful international deals that are not in the interests of the United States. And it makes sense that Kerry would be good at this. He detests America, and has demonstrated this ever since he slandered his fellow Vietnam veterans at the Winter Soldier hearings in 1971. John Kerry is an anti-American jerk and a terrible human being.

Hillary Clinton will step down as U.S. Secretary of State within 'days' of President Barack Obama's second inauguration in January, her spokesman said today. Her long-respected(?) departure is expected by most Democrats to be a prelude for a White House run in 2016, when she will be 69. The top candidate to replace her is believed to be Senator John Kerry of Massachusetts, Chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee and the losing 2004 Democratic presidential nominee. …

Kerry slams Cheney's 'hysteria' By Eric Zimmermann - 01/06/10 01:47 PM ET Sen. John Kerry (D-Mass.) is taking up the Democrats' cry against the GOP for "politicizing" the Christmas Day attack. From a statement Kerry issued this afternoon: “Unfortunately, too many Republicans have treated this episode as a political opportunity. Led by former Vice President Dick Cheney, they have resorted to partisan denunciations that serve no legitimate purpose and have no place in the nation’s vital debate over how to fight terrorism. The hysteria of Mr. Cheney and some of his fellow Republicans is sadly reminiscent of the days when...

You would think by now, Sen. John Kerry would have learned to avoid co-eds packing Instamatics! But nooooo. Our senior senator was captured in yet another embarrassing Kodak moment with a couple of Emerson College students, who popped by his posh Louisburg Square digs to trick or treat on Halloween night.

One Democratic operative suggests keeping track of Barack Obama’s cabinet selections with a March Madness-type tournament chart. While no official announcements have been made, a controlled series of leaks have given a good sense of who's still in contention, and which big names have been bounced from the bracket. The new administration still has some major posts to fill, including heads for the departments of Defense, Housing and Urban Development, Transportation, Labor, and Energy, not to mention the Environmental Protection Agency. But a number of the biggest prizes seem to have already been won, and a handful of serious contenders...

Unofficially, word among enlisted airmen at Lambert Field's Air National Guard complex holds that the 131st Fighter Wing will soon fly its F-15 Eagle fighters to Israel for exercises with the Israeli air force. Officially, Air Guard officers will say nothing about any such exercise.

No. Not Hillary. Sorry to disappoint you feminists, but if Bill Clinton, a southern, white dude, can be the first black president, then the first female president of the United States of America might well be John Kerry. Just consider his disarming concern over his appearance. That alone qualifies the “man” as feminine. Botox, manicures, fake suntans and a hair stylist that accompanies him on the road. Even while campaigning in the hurricane-ravaged regions of Florida, Kerry managed to find a salon and manicurist. I admit to not having seen his feet, but I would bet money that they are...

She says that like it's a bad thing. In a Boston Herald article ("Kerry steeling himself for visit to Heinz territory", 1/23/2002), Teresa Heinz Kerry revealed her true feelings about the Packers loyalists. She mentioned that, at the 1996 Super Bowl, Green Bay Packer fans were "partying harder than anyone she had ever seen". "I've never seen fans drink so much," she said.

WAUWATOSA, WI -- Today, Bush-Cheney '04 announced the release of the campaign's newest radio advertisement, "Got Milk?”  The ad highlights John Kerry’s shameful record on Wisconsin dairy issues and his role in creating the Northeast Dairy Compact, as well as his fight to extend it.  President Bush signed the Farm Bill which ensured that the Northeast Dairy Compact died.  The ad will begin airing this week in select local markets.Script For "Got Milk?"Farmer #1:  That John Kerry just doesn’t get it. Farmer #2:Oh the Packer thing… he said they played in Lambert field…Farmer #1:No no that was just dumb…Farmer #2:Hehe… yeah…Farmer...

He lauds state tradition of 'common sense' on arrival Democratic presidential candidate John Kerry emphasized Wisconsin's "common sense" tradition of open debate when he stopped briefly in Madison Sunday afternoon before heading to Spring Green, where he will spend the next three days prepping for his first debate with President Bush later this week. "It is great to be back in Wisconsin again," the Massachusetts senator told a crowd of about 200 gathered at a private runway on the northeast side. "I can't think of a better place to come to prepare for this debate. You guys have a great...

Last month, John Kerry lauded "Lambert Field" during a visit to Wisconsin. He has yet to acknowledge Lambeau Field, the historic home of the Green Bay Packers. (Look for a Football Fans For Truth billboard coming soon near Lambeau Field, educating Wisconsin football fans about Kerry.) John Kerry also praised the Ohio State Buckeyes football team--during a visit to Michigan. John Kerry throws a football like a girl. NEW! Outraged fans throughout the nation have alerted us to The Great Football Flinch (right). We combed the archives for exculpatory evidence, but as of yet have found none that prevent this...

Surveys in Wisconsin reflect state's crucial role in election Reflecting a similar pattern in national surveys, a raft of new Wisconsin polls offers divergent pictures of the presidential race, from a dead heat to a burgeoning lead for George W. Bush. According to a new statewide Badger Poll, Bush enjoys a clear advantage in Wisconsin, a state Democrats have carried since the 1980s and can ill afford to lose. Bush not only leads Democrat John Kerry by double digits in the poll, but is viewed much more favorably by Wisconsinites and enjoys an immense advantage on the issue of terrorism....
