With all this new in-fighting over former RNC chair Michael Steele and comments made about him by a CPAC official, let's not forget that some of us never thought he should have gotten the job he was clearly unqualified for and did tremendous damage to the brand.

Some of us who actually were privileged to have black fathers in the home were at one point told to do the best we could in life as to open the doors for those who followed behind us. This is clearly not the case today and the latest example comes from the 2018 Winter Olympics. How is Shani Davis' example of over-inflated ego, entitled, racebaiting, spoiled brat behavior going to make it easier for a future black Olympic hopeful to be looked at with anything but hesitation; not because he or she may or may not be a qualified athlete...

In our nation's ongoing quest to show diversity and inclusion as demanded by the left, people who use the race card, especially the now-trendy black-female card, show incompetence in delivering what they promise but are quite competent in absconding with the taxpayer's money. As usual, when it comes to access to millions of taxpayer dollars in Washington, D.C., it all depends on who you know and we've seen it before. Five years later, we apparently still have the incompetent mixing with federal government access to millions of taxpayer dollars and a failure to deliver the goods as promised and a...

There are many New England Patriots and Boston sports fans who live outside of the local New England broadcast area. (Thanks to Al Gore's greatest invention, the internet, we're able to listen to local sports radio, even if Alexa doesn't understand "Boston WEEI".) We finally got Alexa to tune into the right "WEEI", and then we heard two Democrat windbags bashing President Trump, the false missile alert in Hawaii, the ridiculous new American embassy in England, birth control access, Trenni's vagina, her boyfriend and her mother's diaphragm. Evidently Trenni Kusnierek and John Tomase, "Trenni and Tomase", don't care so much about sports...

In the latest example of Trump derangement, the Boston City Council and Massachusetts Governor Charlie Baker are joining forces to condemn what they say are the president's latest example of racism. While there's no concrete proof the president actually used the "shithole" word and Democrats and their media are blindly taking the word of a documented liar in the United States Senate, it's again quite ironic white Massachusetts liberals are lecturing the rest of America about racial intolerance when Boston has a well-deserved reputation of treating black people like second-class citizens in their own hometown.

There are many conservatives who happily work behind-the-scenes to advance many causes and push back against liberal policies and laws that they deem harmful. Unfortunately, there are also a lot of people who've just discovered an issue, are outraged, post a rant on social media, and become an overnight sensation. One would want to believe their intentions are about an issue, but in the instant-gratification world we live in, coupled with audiences that are quick to show praise without examining possible motivation, we're now being inundated with narcissists who believe they have something to say; something we've never heard about...

Many millennials were tuned out in 2007, but many of us remember the sheer horror when Oprah Winfrey used her very successful television program to endorse then-Senator Barack Obama over Senator Hillary Clinton. Liberal white women, in particular, were in full outrage mode. It's quite ironic that a calculation that cost Oprah her standing with women and her television empire is now having to go back to, and depend on, the very demographic she turned her back on. The very women she'll need if Hollywood's projection becomes a semblance of reality.

Educators, kindergarten through college, are in a unique position of enormous power responsibility. Because they are "teachers", it's assumed they are knowledgeable of the topics of which they speak and issue factually correct information of that which they speak because they grade students on the information taught thus are in the position of being able to alter the forward trajectory of any student's academic record. One would think a competent educator would present all sides of an issue and allow the critical thinking process to develop in the young minds of their students. However, that is NOT what occurs in...

For more than a decade, the American people had to endure the destructive polices of Democrats, their media, and the unelected in many government agencies whose inflicted their desires on the rest of us. With the election of President Donald Trump, the left has become unhinged as the surgical removal of their impediments moves along. In a clear illustration of the pot calling the kettle black, Duty to Warn's leader, "psychologist" Dr. John Gartner, says his agenda isn't partisan but wants to help Democrats retake the House so they can "contain" and eventually invoke the 25th Amendment to remove Donald...

For many years we've been witness to the narcissism of the elite. When bad things happen to the American people, politicians and the media show their faux sincerest sympathies and then move on. However, should something bad happen to them, we're inundated with presentations about what they're going through and how we should all be aware of the toll such an event takes on them. It was en vogue to slam candidate, and now, President Donald Trump and many Republicans accepted the media's call and that kept them out of the cross hairs. That is, until it happens to them.

Unfortunately in the media, having actual experience in the field you're reporting on is not a prerequisite. Former NFL running back DeAngelo Williams clearly struck a nerve during a segment on NFL Network's "Good Morning Football" where he questioned the knowledge of those making predictions of Sunday's marquee match-up between the New England Patriots at the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Bill O'Reilly's claims have merit as we all know there are entities that peddle in paying for false allegations to damage the reputations of a given target, i.e. Fusion GPS being paid by the Hillary Clinton campaign to produce a "dossier" to slime opponent Donald Trump. New revelations appear to back him up.

If you were to consume any national American media outlets and sites, one could come to the conclusion that Republicans are THE problem when it comes to sexual abuse in the United States, especially ONE Republican in particular. But if you were to try and keep up with the tally of reported sexual abusers in the current scandal cycle, it's clear sexual abuse IS a geographical (Hollywood, New York City, and Washington, D.C.) and very partisan epidemic.

With the unfortunate aftermath of the church shooting in Texas, the liberal left and their media has yet again taken this as a "crisis" not wasted. But there was a particular posting from October 4th that came across the radar that peaked attention because despite the carnage that happens daily in Democrat, gun-controlled meccas like Chicago (which mainly involves politically insignificant black people), the BBC highlighted the fact that most "mass" shootings are mostly carried out by "white" men.

General John Kelly told the president that calling Gold Star widows might not be a good idea. It was probably because it was at a time when emotions were tender. It's also clear because as in most things today, there's an opportunity to have things politicized by those ready, willing, and able to exploit such calls for political purposes.

One year ago today, late night host Jimmy Kimmel gleefully bashed Republican presidential nominee Donald trump after the release of the Access Hollywood tape and lewd, b-roll comments captured within. Quite the precarious position given Kimmel's resume. Jimmy Kimmel was formerly co-host (1999-2003) of the Comedy Central program "The Man Show" which was essentially non-stop locker room talk... with props.

Imagine if President Trump decided to utilize technology and used virtual reality to put himself into a disaster-ravaged part of the United States? We all know the media would be going off for a few days of 24-hour news cycle attacks on his insensitivity in the wake of the human suffering of fellow Americans. Any adult knows that would be in bad taste. Then again, we're not always talking about good taste when we're talking about millennials, especially elitist millennials who believe the world is their playground.

Long ago we warned anyone who would listen what would happen if liberals were allowed to liken whatever their cause was to the Civil Rights movement. Whether we're talking gays or illegal immigrants of Muslims, there is NO comparison to their situations today with what blacks in the United States endured from slavery through the end of segregation. But in many cases, liberals act exactly like the racist Democrat segregationists of the not-too-recent past....

San Juan Mayor Carmen Yulín Cruz ("Popular Democratic Party") has made the media rounds from CNN, MSNBC, and even the Washington Post to publicly bash the relief efforts of FEMA. Cruz has shown she lacks the humility to manage her city as arrogance is not a leadership quality desired when her people need her most; people who will have power soon enough and will see how she conducted herself while they were in the dark.

So much for that much-vaunted "integrity of the game".... Do you think a few people in and around Las Vegas could be pissed that an Oakland Raiders team that should have had their way with the Washington Redskins lost convincingly? Could this be why Tom Brady, Ben Roethlisberger and Aaron Rodgers suddenly announced their "unity" very publicly as to assure their black linemen they were down with the struggle and didn't want to be Carred and feathered?
