Donald Trump has confirmed that a warship named after his Republican nemesis, the late Arizona senator John McCain, was intentionally hidden from his view during his visit to a naval base in Japan this week. The president confirmed that the ship had been intentionally hidden, saying someone had taken measures “because they thought I didn’t like [McCain]”. The Wall Street Journal cited an email dated 15 May from an official at the US Indo-Pacific Command to US navy and air force officials which said the USS John McCain “needs to be out of sight” during Trump’s Memorial Day visit to...

John McCain with “Source D – Source E” of the Steele dossier – via Paul Sperry In January 2017 ABC News identified Sergei Millian as the key source of the Fusian GPS anti-Trump Dossier. Sergei Millian has since been identified as as the mysterious “Source D” and “Source E” in the junk Steele dossier. ABC News interviewed Millian in 2017. Sara Carter wrote more about Sergei Millian in March 2019. Millian was a source for the Steele dossier who disappeared after the election. According to former Trump policy advisor George Papadopoulos, Millian, a Belarus-born businessman, became an unwitting source of...

The late Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) listed off the names of dictators while watching President Trump's inauguration, according to Sen. Amy Klobuchar (D-Minn.). HuffPost reported that during a campaign event in Iowa, the 2020 Democratic presidential contender told the crowd of more than 200 about sitting next to McCain and Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) during Trump's inaugural address. “I sat on that stage between Bernie and John McCain, and John McCain kept reciting to me names of dictators during that speech because he knew more than any of us what we were facing as a nation,” she said. “He understood...

This seems particularly unhinged. The media is constantly buzzing about how President Trump is unstable, but McCain’s behavior seems a bit…unusual. Presidential hopeful Senator Amy Klobuchar told a crowd on the campaign trail that the late John McCain muttered the names of dictators as he watched Donald Trump’s inauguration. “John McCain kept reciting to me names of dictators during that speech,” the Minnesota senator said, “because he knew more than any of what we were facing as a nation, he understood it.” She continued: “He knew because he knew this man more than any of us did.” Or it was...

In these tense political times, there are both honorable antagonists and opportunistic ones, the latter of which seems to have permeated the entirety of the mainstream media. This was by design, in many ways, as these entertainers must entertain in order to maintain their value to their handlers. This is all driven by the plague-like consumerism and greed of the corporate world, and piped directly to screens in front of our faces 24/7, 365.

Ilhan Omar has made her view on Meghan McCain crystal clear. Rep. Omar, D-Minn., the controversial freshman congresswoman, mocked McCain’s attempt to call her out during a discussion on anti-Semitism in the wake of the California synagogue shooting. “When we’re having conversations about anti-Semitism, we should be looking at the most extreme on both sides. I would bring up Congresswoman Ilhan Omar and some of her comments that got so much attention,” “The View” co-host said on ABC’s “This Week with George Stephanopoulos.”

I often find myself having a weird perspective on things, coming to an understanding of issues by piecing together information obliquely, or by going “the long way ’round.” I suppose to some degree, that’s just the nature of the human experience – what, with having limited time and experience to draw from, you can only start to solve some of these puzzled from where you are. But it’s not lost to me how… particularly specific and tangential this lead-in will be.

The late Sen. John McCain's family plans to support former Vice President Joe Biden's White House bid, backing the Democrat not only in his party's crowded primary race but also in a general election matchup with President Trump, the Washington Examiner has learned. In an extraordinary snub to Trump, who derided McCain's Vietnam War service and mocked him even after his death last August at age 81, the McCain family is preparing to break with the Republican Party. McCain represented the party in Congress for 35 years and was chosen as its presidential nominee in 2008, losing to Barack Obama....

Title: 'A wall is not going to fix this': Cindy McCain says Trump's pet project won't curtail human trafficking Cindy McCain, the widow of GOP Sen. John McCain, on Friday slammed the idea of a wall to curtail human trafficking at the southern border, which President Donald Trump has repeatedly cited as a problem in an attempt to build support for his long-promised barrier. [snip] In her NBC News interview on Friday, McCain also lamented the lack of civility in Washington and said that her husband, who died last August, would have wanted lawmakers to debate one another on the...

The View’s Meghan McCain on Thursday celebrated the arrest of WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange, declaring that she hopes he “rots in Hell.”

Meghan McCain isn’t a big fan of President Trump, but she said she’s “grateful” he’s the commander in chief because it helps her on “The View.” McCain said in Ramin Setoodeh’s book, “Ladies who Punch: The Explosive Inside Story of ‘The View,’” that Trump makes her “job a little easier” on the ABC show, People magazine reported. “If Trump wasn’t president, I don’t think I would be successful here,” McCain said about working on “The View.” “For that reason, I guess I’m grateful that Trump is president. It’s just made my job a little easier because I know why it...

Meghan McCain, the television talk show host and daughter of the late Arizona Republican senator John McCain, has stepped forward to defend Democrat Joe Biden amid heightened scrutiny of his intimate physical style with women. In a tweet Monday night, McCain, a co-host of “The View,” vouched for Biden’s character and recounted the comfort he provided her last year when her father died after a battle with brain cancer. “Joe Biden is one of the truly decent and compassionate men in all of American politics,” McCain said. “He has helped me through my fathers diagnosis, treatment and ultimate passing more...

President Donald Trump railed against special counsel Robert Mueller's now-completed investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election on Wednesday, calling it an "attempted takeover of our government." "We can never allow this treasonous, these treasonous acts to happen to another President," Trump told Fox News' Sean Hannity, in his first TV interview since Attorney General William Barr summarized the principal findings of Mueller's report in a memo to Congress on Sunday. This was an attempted takeover of our government, of our country, an illegal takeover," Trump said. "If it were the other way around, where I was doing...

Rep. Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) recently criticized Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) for being so friendly with President Trump when he continues to attack the late Sen. John McCain.

Hakeem Jeffries: "Lindsey Graham spent years as a sidekick to John McCain, and then Donald Trump gets elected and Donald Trump continues to bash John McCain in reprehensible ways, and Lindsey Graham...

President Trump in an interview broadcast Friday criticized the late Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) for giving the FBI a controversial dossier "for very evil purposes," keeping up a week-long series of criticisms of the former senator that has roiled the Republican Party. Trump's latest fight with McCain, which began over the weekend and almost seven months after McCain's death, has centered on the president's seemingly festering resentment that McCain gave to the FBI a dossier of unverified claims about Trump and Russia that had been compiled by a former British spy named Christopher Steele. “If you realize, about three days...

President Donald Trump made a rare appearance at a church last Sunday. It’s a safe bet the sermon was not based on Proverbs 15:1—”A gentle answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger.” If it was, it didn’t appear to have much effect. Before and after church, the president engaged in a tweet storm that insulted several people, including the late Sen. John McCain. Trump accuses McCain of being complicit in the leak of the Steele dossier, a private intelligence report compiled by former MI6 officer Christopher Steele for the political research firm Fusion GPS, which, among...
