New York City: Trump fans in front of Trump tower, showing of support for The President. Traffic stopped on Fifth Avenue.

Not bad for the worst team in the NFL. Panned, picked apart, ridiculed and accused of tanking for the top pick in next year’s NFL draft, the Jaguars made the only statement that mattered Sunday. They’re 1-0.

I just got a notification on my phone from Uber saying they support my right to protest and attached a guide from the ACLU informing me of my rights. Anybody else get this? I just uninstalled it!

Kyle Rittenhouse should not have been patrolling the streets of Kenosha, Wisconsin, Tuesday night. Whatever failures might have existed on the part of state and local government (and there appear to have been many), the idea of a 17-year-old with a loaded rifle being dropped into that powder keg can only happen when some horribly bad judgment has occurred. I say this as a gun owner and Second Amendment supporter who took his son to the shooting range at that same age and taught him how to properly handle a firearm. However, two narratives about the situation are emerging, neither...

(Applause.)And it was very important for me to come to North Carolina because we wanted to be here, but your governor didn’t allow it because he’s in a shutdown mode —AUDIENCE: Booo...

James S. Brady Press Briefing Room1:18 P.M. EDTMS. MCENANY: Hello, everyone. Democrats in Congress failed to act in the best interests of Americans hardest hit by this pandemic.

The American people are tired of games. They seek leadership, and President Trump delivered.This weekend, President Trump took executive action designed to provide the relief Democrats have denied to those who need it most. Through...

We had a single wide mobile home while stationed in Michigan on recruiting duty in the early 90's. The Army would pay to move it, so we thought it would be like having our own home (boy, were we mistaken!). We had it moved down to Fort Rucker, Alabama, our next duty station after my husband went to OCS and was commissioned after nine years of enlisted service. I had been needing to have a hysterectomy. I was scheduled to have the surgery while he was away for more training, so my brother came to stay with us and help...
