MSNBC anchor Chuck Todd kicked off his show on Thursday with a grim forecast of the Trump presidency, declaring that "the national nightmare is upon us." “I will not say this lightly, but let’s be frank: the national nightmare is upon us," Todd told viewers in his monologue. "The basic rules of our democracy are under attack from the president." "We begin tonight with a series of admissions by the president that all but assures his impeachment in the House of Representatives," the anchor said. "It’s a moment of truth for Republicans, and they’ve been largely silent on what we...

Medicare for all sounds like a nightmare to me. I don't know if you have ever dealt with Medicare on a tough issue, but I have, and it was a disgusting and enlightening experience. My 91-year-old mom fell and broke her back in the summer of 2017. I took her to the hospital in severe pain, and they were shooting her up with fentanyl and morphine, but they said she would have to go home. You see, if they admitted her and she was able to stay for three days, Medicare would be liable for the first twenty days in...

Acquiring space launch company Orbital ATK in an all-cash $7.8 billion merger, Northrop took possession of Orbital's Minotaur and Antares medium-lift rocket families.

Northrop Grumman also inherited Orbital's ongoing NASA contract to resupply crew aboard the International Space Station (ISS) with needed consumables under the agency's CRS-1 and CRS-2 "Commercial Resupply Services" contracts -- missions valued at as much as $14 billion across the...

Thousands of passengers scheduled to fly out of Charlotte Douglas International Airport, in North Carolina, on an American Airlines-operated carrier became stranded on Thursday night after the airline suddenly canceled all remaining flights. PSA Airlines, a regional carrier for American Airlines, reportedly experienced a “technical issue” that led to the cancellation of 275 flights on Thursday and 400 on Friday, a representative for the airline confirmed to Fox News. “Our team, in coordination with PSA, is working hard to resolve the issue as quickly as possible,” said American in a statement. “PSA plans to resume their operations at 12 p.m....

Last year, my husband and I purchased our first house. Lucky for us new homeowners, the house needed minimal work. [snip] Last month, in the middle of the night, I woke up startled. It felt like someone had placed a chip of ice in my left earhole—but it was something way worse. I shot up out of bed, disoriented, and stumbled to the bathroom. I could feel that my ear was not right. I grabbed a cotton swab and gently inserted it into my ear to see what was up and I felt something move. When I pulled the cotton...

It can't happen! It won't happen! Please please please . . . Sean Hannity gave a litany of statistics the other night about crimes committed by illegal immigrants in this country. In response, Fox News contributor Geraldo Rivera complimented Sean on his statistics, and then immediately pivoted to what the TV news stories would look like if the administration was rounding up 11 million “undocumented” immigrants in this country. Geraldo’s pivot was pure speculation. The administration’s latest directives on immigration say nothing about rounding up 11 million people.

Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon of the United Nations urged world powers on Sunday to work harder to end Syria's civil war. The conflict has taken half a million lives and created an international refugee problem since it started in March of 2011. Addressing an emergency session of the Security Council, Ban asked, "What excuse is there for anything less than determined action to stop the mayhem? How much longer will all those with influence allow such cruelty to continue? I urge all involved to work harder...

The U.S. State Department’s announcement that it will finally finish releasing the 55,000-pages of emails from Hillary Clinton’s time as the nation’s top diplomat does away with a cloud that has been hanging over the Democratic frontrunner’s presidential bid for roughly a year.

At a Monday afternoon press conference, Republican presidential frontrunner Donald Trump is asked about the deferred action President Obama ordered for so-called "DREAMers," young immigrants who entered the country illegally as children. Trump said he wants "dreamers to come from the United States." "I want dreamers to come from the United States," Trump said. "I want the people in the United States that have children, I want them to have dreams also. We're always talking about 'DREAMers' for other people. I want the children that are growing up in the United States to be dreamers also. They're not dreaming right...

Tesla (TSLA) stock is down more than 25% so far this year. It hit its lowest level since February 2014 on Wednesday. Wall Street has grown increasingly skeptical about the company in recent weeks.

Pacific Crest analyst Brad Erickson said in a report Tuesday that investors should "avoid" Tesla stock. He cited concerns about sluggish demand for the company's new Model X crossover. And even longtime Tesla bull Adam Jonas of Morgan Stanley, is suddenly feeling a little less optimistic about the...

“I have fetus dreams, we all do here: dreams of abortions one after the other; of buckets of blood splashed on the walls; trees full of crawling fetuses. I dreamed that two men grabbed me and began to drag me away, ‘Let’s do an abortion,’ they said with a sickening leer, and I began to scream, plunged into a vision of sucking, scraping pain, of being spread and torn by impartial instruments that do only what they are bidden …” Abortion clinic worker Sallie Tisdale “We do Abortions Here” Harpers Magazine October 1987

Another exhibition of Democrat partisanship regardless of the circumstances is in the works. Rep. Alan Grayson (D-FL) announced in a Friday interview that he has informed Nancy Pelosi that he is eager to serve on the House Select Committee investigating Benghazi. Grayson made the comment in an interview with Ari Rabin-Havt on XM radio, saying, “I’ve said, if she decides to have Democratic members participate, I’d like to be one of them.” Pelosi has not yet said whether or not the Democrats will indeed participate, but Grayson would love to play a subversive role in disrupting what should be serious...

From a distance of three and a half years, the events of March 23, 2010, the day President Obama signed the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, seem like something from another world. On that day, the Democrats who gathered in the East Room of the White House for the signing ceremony could barely contain their joy. They cheered, they laughed, they shouted, they pumped their fists, they wouldn't sit down. They chanted "Fired up -- ready to go!" as they had at Obama campaign rallies. When the president recognized Nancy Pelosi,the chant turned to "Nancy! Nancy! Nancy!"**snip**After an effusive...
