Disclosure this week that George Soros, financier of international leftist agitation, has donated to Arizona Republican Sen. John McCain's Institute for International Leadership has sparked some of the Senator's critics to question his judgment. In a bid to reassure everyone that he can "take money from anyone without compromising my principals," McCain pointed out that "I have taken millions of dollars from Republican donors without letting them influence my views. In fact, the Institute was initially funded with $9 million in campaign donations that I never spent. The $100,000 Soros gave the Institute is tiny in comparison. So, I think...

Shortly after the presidential election, the Minneapolis City Council introduced and passed a resolution declaring "solidarity" with their Muslim community. Using the #resist narrative following the election of President Trump, it seems to also have been an attempt to deflect from the mass stabbing at the mall in St. Cloud which garnered national attention and again highlighted the violent tendencies of some Muslims in the population.

The democrats’ unprecedented losing streak continues. As Rich Lowry noted a couple of days after Donald Trump’s victory over Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama’s chief legacy is the total collapse of the modern Democrat Party. In the handful of special elections this year—including in Georgia and South Carolina on last Tuesday—nothing has happened to change that. ... Nevertheless, as the recent war on President Trump and the more distant—but certainly recent enough—debate on marriage reveal, U.S. liberals don’t necessarily need to win elections to further their leftist agenda. In fact, as most any sentient political observer of the American scene is...

Obama/Hillary Probe Of Plane Sale To Kenya Cheating Veteran Company With Lowest Bid In Favor Of Company Linked To Clinton. This is a sad story to report, as there is another Obama/Clinton criminal probe involving the cheating of an American owned company, IOMAX, and the recent sudden death of the CEO. In Obama’s last day in office he sold Kenya planes made by a company called L3 Technologies. However, the company owned by CEO and honored Veteran, Ron Howard, IOMAX, who has supplied the Government with planes without over charging, was cheated out of the sale while having the lowest...

Amendment I. Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances. The Press have already abridged the freedom of information, the right not to be lied to. The media megalopoly, the inescapable leftist mind-rape hegemony, have already irretrievably stolen our right to know. They have already suceeded in a coup d'etat, the same stroke of state as in Edward R. Murrow's 3/9/1954 See It...

Bernie Sanders and his wife are being investigated by the Federal Bureau of Matters for bank fraud.Converted into today’s Democratic talking point:“But, but, but…Donald Trump still hasn’t released his taxes! And he said ‘pussy!””Oh, and the Supreme Court upheld most of President Donald J. Trump’s travel ban – unanimously. Let’s not talk about that!Posted from: MOTUS A.D.

Two fake reporters and a fake editor resigned from CNN on Monday amid the fallout from the #fakenews network’s having to retract and apologize for yet another fake story on what it likes to call “RussiaGate”. Interestingly, one of the fake reporters, a guy named Eric Lichtbau, had recently come to CNN from the equally fake NYTimes. Apparently, infesting the already fake CNN with the “standards” of the NYTimes only served to compound fakery on top of fakery. But don’t worry about CNN – journalism schools turn out thousands of great fake journalists every semester, so they’ll be able to...

California Hates Charlie Brown You’re a Bad Man, Governor Brown. June 27, 2017 Daniel Greenfield Daniel Greenfield, a Shillman Journalism Fellow at the Freedom Center, is an investigative journalist and writer focusing on the radical left and Islamic terrorism. Charlie Brown has been down on his luck before. But he’s never been targeted by an entire state. What insane dictator could possibly hate the lovable Peanuts character? Kim Jong-Un? No, Governor Brown. Good grief! Governor Jerry Brown, who despite having slightly more hair than Charlie, is much less popular than Schultz’s beloved creation. And Brown (the one who makes small...

Breaking a nearly 20 year annual tradition, President Trump failed to host an iftar dinner, marking the end of Ramadan. While he did release a perfectly fine statement, given Trump’s pattern of anti-Muslim rhetoric and policy proposals as a candidate and the perceptions of his proposed travel restrictions as President as a backdoor way to institute at least a partial Muslim Ban, forgoing this dinner sends the wrong message once again to our fellow Muslim Americans and to the more than 1.5 billion Muslims around the world. Initiated by President Clinton, these dinners were hosted annually by Presidents Bush and...

As India prepares to host the eighth edition of Global Entrepreneurship Summit later this year, Ivanka Trump, daughter of US President Donald Trump, has accepted Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s invitation to lead the US delegation. “To further our economic partnership, I am excited to report that the Prime Minister has invited my daughter, Ivanka, to lead the US delegation to the Global Entrepreneurship Summit in India this fall. And I believe she has accepted,” President Trump told reporters after meeting Modi. Inviting Ivanka to India, PM Modi said, “I would like to tell you that I am eager to welcome...

President Donald Trump lashed out at Hillary Clinton and the Democratic Party in a tweet Sunday morning, saying the former secretary of state "colluded" with the party in the presidential primary to defeat Sen. Bernie Sanders. "Is she allowed to so collude?" the President asked. "Unfair to Bernie!" The tweet is an apparent reference to a cache of nearly 20,000 hacked Democratic National Committee emails released by WikiLeaks nearly one year ago that Sanders' supporters' said bolstered their claims that the party favored Clinton. The tweet comes as congressional committees and Department of Justice special counsel Robert Mueller continue investigations...

The Democratic Party appears to be going full speed ahead toward its ultimate demise. At least, that’s what’s going on according to what WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange said Saturday. Shared by his Twitter account, Assange stated that the party has been “consumed” by “hysteria about Russia,” something he sees as a “political dead end.” It is upon this crippling “narrative” that the “party’s elite” attempts to keep a hold on power, he said. By maintaining this story without any evidence to back it up, the Democratic Party elite are diverting attention from their own incompetence in an effort to hold...

Contemplations on the new Cook County Soda Tax... Cook County, Illinois - the home of America’s fourth largest city - Chicago, is, like many metro areas, broke. So, as many jurisdictions do when broke, they imagine a need to raise tax rates. The one they have chosen for July 1, 2017 is a soda tax, in addition to any applicable sales tax, which in Illinois can be as high as ten percent ad valorem already. This new “soda tax” is not just on soda, but on any beverage that is sweetened with either sugar or artificial sweetener (so it applies...

Phil Donahue tells CNN why he thinks Donald Trump is the president, and it has to do with the elite media and pretty white girls. Media analyst Mark Dice has the story.

"VANITY" Post: I want to mark that Blake Williams recently passed away, in his 50s, of natural causes. Blake was a veteran of the old Pirate Radio Ship Caroline, once anchored in the North Sea, off the coast of Britain, a long time ago. Blake went on to be active in various radio venues in New Mexico. He also did charity work, cared about people, wrote several, published, conservative essays, and was a personal friend. Blake was a 100% believer in Truth, Justice, and the American Way. He leaves behind a devoted spouse and about ten pets on their ranch....

Malevolent puppet-masters like Arianna Huffington, Beyonce, Whoopi Goldberg, Loretta Lynch, George Soros and Rachel Maddow bang the drums of war and hate to their base There is nothing new under the sun: Ecclesiastes 1:9 While the above phrase was written over 2,000 years ago, the author of Ecclesiastes composed one of the most profound truisms in history. There really is nothing new under the sun when it comes to human beings and that predictability has often been used by unscrupulous scoundrels to manipulate people. Such is the case in today’s democrats/leftists who are playing into the hands of Leftopathic leaders...

The winning is too much! We are taking our country back. And we have the right guy in charge to do so. While we have admitted some refugees so far that could potentially be dangerous, President Trump has stuck to his promises in enforcing the law and bringing common sense immigration back. And there’s more good news to come. Trump is asking Congress for new immigration policies that would prohibit new immigrants from going on welfare during their first five years in the country during a speech in Cedar Rapids, Iowa last Wednesday. “The time has come for new immigration...

In short the 45-year-old Canadian Prime Minister should grow up, ditch the Selfies and get real. Proving that socks really are for puppets, Canada Prime Minister Justin Trudeau used his as a kind of Islamic flag worn on the feet at yesterday’s Gay Pride parade in Toronto. The Ramadan socks Trudeau sported, with his official photographer in tow, promote a so-called ‘religion’ that cavalierly throws gays to their deaths from the tops of tall buildings. “Text on the socks read “Eid Mubarak,” honouring the religious holiday that marks the end of Ramadan, the Islamic holy month of fasting, which coincides...

The Democrats are a network of criminals who seek to sabotage this past election using the press, various progressive organizations and George Soros NGO’s. Their deceptive practices are direct assaults on our electoral process and threatens the stability of our republic. Their “Resistance” supported by powerful Democrats and their activists, use inciting rhetoric fomenting violence leading to attempted assassinations of dozens of GOP congressman by Bernie Sanders supporter, James T. Hodgkinson. Although the Trump-Russia narrative of collusion has been dispelled by lack of evidence, it still makes headlines. Although Lyin’ Chuck Schumer kept repeating a lie, there was never a...

2017 has been a surprisingly kind year for the European Union — so far! Staunchly pro-EU candidates not only survived the gauntlet of national elections in France and the Netherlands but emerged triumphant. The once-imminent threat of political populism is now on the wane, we are led to believe. As if to prove that point, even the UK government is struggling to preserve a united front to see out Brexit after recent elections delivered a hung parliament. The governments of the EU’s two core nations, Germany and France, appear to share a unified sense of purpose. Merkel has expressed a...
