Now-former Special Counsel Robert Mueller is trying to have it both ways. When Mueller told reporters Wednesday that “if we had confidence that the president clearly did not commit a crime, we would have said that,” he overstepped his bounds as a prosecutor. Mueller was insinuating that President Trump has not been exonerated of wrongdoing, while refusing to explicitly declare the president guilty of any crime. As Alan Dershowitz noted in The Hill, FBI Director James Comey was “universally criticized” for attempting a similar political dance during the Hillary Clinton email investigation. At the time, Comey had said that there...

Apr. 20, 2018 - 5:43 - On 'Fox & Friends,' Fox News contributor and former House speaker talks about the former FBI director's media tour and Pompeo's secretary of state nomination.

Fantastic speech by Tucker Carlson.

Link only. Entertaining, Interesting, and Insightful speech by Newt.

As tensions remain high between President-elect Donald Trump and the intelligence community over Russian election interference, former House Speaker Newt Gingrich said Sunday that Mr. Trump shouldn’t have a good relationship with the U.S. intelligence agencies right now. “I don’t think there should be a good relationship right now,” Gingrich told CBS’ “Face the Nation.”. “The very top people who are political appointees I think absolutely betrayed and undermined the intelligence community. I think they acted in ways that are totally inappropriate.” Gingrich was responding to questions about how Mr. Trump will be able to work with intelligence agencies after...

Former Speaker Newt Gingrich (R-Ga.) said in a new interview that Donald Trump has taken a different tone as president-elect and may be leaving behind his campaign promise to “drain the swamp.” Gingrich told NPR's "Morning Edition" that he was told Trump “now says [the phrase] was cute, but he doesn’t want to use it anymore.” Gingrich, who has been a close adviser to Trump, said he likes "drain the swamp" because it “vividly illustrates the problem, because all people in this city who are the alligators are going to hate the swamp being drained.” “But, you know, he is...

On his nationally syndicated radio show Wednesday, host Sean Hannity discussed with former Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich the Left’s onslaught on Trump and his administration’s legitimacy, Gingrich explaining, “They’re facing the end of their way of life.” “We’re talking here about the end of their world,” said former Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich. “You know, Donald Trump is the real deal. He is the first decisive change since 1932, much bigger, much deeper than Ronald Reagan, and the Left knows it. And they’re facing, you know, they’re facing the end of their way of life.” Sound clip...

Newt Gingrich appeared on FNB’s Sunday Morning Futures with host Maria Bartiromo to discuss the Donald Trump economic platform, the transition, and the ongoing processes for the incoming President Trump administration. Bartiromo is a very sharp and intellectually honest lady in the world of economic discussion, specifically with perspective on domestic economics which has been her center of expertise since 1995. Maria has very keen economic perspectives on domestic issues.

As has become typical in an election marked by its often unpleasant surprises, I awoke to a storm of outrage on Twitter on Wednesday morning. Newt Gingrich had told Fox’s Megyn Kelly that she was “fascinated with sex” and didn’t “care about public policy.” Mr. Gingrich unleashed this boorish attack after Ms. Kelly tried to pin him down on whether the many accusations of sexual assault against Donald J. Trump, and his own words on the matter, should disqualify him from the presidency. That Mr. Gingrich (with whom I once hosted a television show) thought the best way to deflect...

Anyone see it? Too early to post the video as it just happened. Gingrich ripped her a new one.

In an interview with "This week' co-host Martha Raddatz, former House Speaker Newt Gingrich categorized Donald Trump's 'rigged election' claims as a "coup d'etat" against fourteen million citizens who voted for Donald Trump in the Republican primary committed by "20 media executives." "This is about last Friday when the networks spent 23 minutes on the Trump tape," he said. "And less than one minute -- all three networks combined -- less than one minute on the Hillary Clinton’s secret speeches that were being revealed on WikiLeaks." "I think it’s amazing that Trump is as close as he is right now,...

Former House speaker explains on 'Hannity' how the Republican nominee has shown leadership

Democratic Presidential Nominee Hillary Clinton is getting ready to celebrate her husband’s 70th birthday this evening on Martha’s Vineyard, according to a Clinton aide speaking to CNN. Obama is also vacationing on the island, although it is unclear whether he and Michelle Obama plan to join the Clintons for the momentous occasion. Clinton’s trip coincides with Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump’s visit to Louisiana to highlight the suffering of local citizens after the state was hit by unprecedented flooding in the area.

“We come here with heavier hearts than normal,” President Obama said at the White House Friday afternoon. The attack in Nice, France on Thursday was a “tragic and appalling attack on the freedom and peace that we cherish.” “Our hearts are with the people of France and innocent men women and children who were killed in this sickening attack,” he said. In particular, Obama noted the two Americans who were killed, a father and son from Texas who were on vacation. “They’re grieving, they need all the love and support of our American family as they grapple with unimaginable loss,” he...

Oliver DarcyJuly 15,2016 Newt Gingrich said Thursday night in the aftermath of the deadly truck attack in France that the US should issue a religious test to Muslims and deport those who are found to believe in Shariah, or Islamic law. The former House speaker made his comments on Fox News when host Sean Hannity asked, "What does this tragedy, this evil attack tonight, mean for that conflict and debate?" "Western civilization is in a war," Gingrich said. "We should frankly test every person here who is of a Muslim background, and if they believe in Shariah, they should be...

On Thursday night 80 innocents were slaughtered in Nice, France when a terrorist smashed them with a truck full of grenades and guns on Bastille Day. The killer was a French man from Tunisia. French officials, once again, were stunned by the attack and had no idea the terrorist was about to carry out the massacre. Newt Gingrich went off tonight after the latest Islamist massacre! Newt: “Let me be as blunt as I can be. Western civilization is in a war. Frankly, test every person here who is of a Muslim background and if they believe in Sharia they...

Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich on Thursday called for the U.S. to test every person with a Muslim background to see if they believe in Sharia law, and deport those who do. "Let me be as blunt and direct as I can be. Western civilization is in a war. We should frankly test every person here who is of a Muslim background, and if they believe in Sharia, they should be deported," Gingrich said in an interview with Fox News' Sean Hannity. "Sharia is incompatible with Western civilization. Modern Muslims who have given up Sharia, glad to have them as...
