On Wednesday, the House Intelligence Committee released a transcript from an interview in March with NARA officials in which the agency's chief operating officer, William Bosanko, testified that the agency had "found classified information in unclassified boxes" for all the presidential administrations "from Reagan forward." He also said the boxes of materials were in NARA's custody at the time the agency made the discovery. [link to pdf] However, Bosanko, who...

As we have mentioned in previous programs, the United States has a "Sedition Act," and there have been many times in U.S. history when "martial law" has been used in extraordinary circumstances to restore social order. According to the Brennan Center's statistics in August of this year, there have been at least 68 times in U.S. history when martial law was imposed for a variety of reasons, including foreign war, civil war, rebellion, riots, and natural disasters.

Rick Tyler, a leading Republican analyst and so-called Never Trumper, told Yahoo News on Monday that his former boss Sen. Ted Cruz is “just a coward” for publicly supporting Trump even though Cruz knows he’s a bad president. “You have a choice in this world: You can be a political leader and talk about principle,” Tyler told the Yahoo News “Skullduggery” podcast. “Or you can do the popular thing — [and] in Texas supporting Trump is a popular thing — and try to hold all your supporters together because you want to maintain power. But you know what? Sometimes you’ve...

President Trump on Friday said his presumptive Democratic challenger Joe Biden “is no longer worthy of the Black Vote,” after the former vice president made comments contrasting African American and Latino diversity. “After yesterday’s statement, Sleepy Joe Biden is no longer worthy of the Black Vote!” Trump tweeted Friday morning. Earlier Friday, Trump tweeted: “Sleepy Joe Biden just lost the Black Vote. This statement is a disaster from which there is no recovery!” The president then deleted the tweet and replaced it with the new one. In both tweets, the president was referring to Biden’s remarks during an interview that...

[Barf Alert] Joe Biden Talks Catholic Faith After President Trump Says Former VP is ‘Against God’ “Like so many people, my faith has been the bedrock foundation of my life: it's provided me comfort in moments of loss and tragedy, it's kept me grounded and humbled in times of triumph and joy. And in this moment of darkness for our country — of pain, of division, and of sickness for so many Americans — my faith has been a guiding light for me and a constant reminder of the fundamental dignity and humanity that God has bestowed upon all of...

President Trump on Friday pushed back against presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden for claiming the commander in chief would try to steal the election. “Look, Joe's not all there. Everybody knows. And it's sad when you look at it and you see it, you see it for yourself. He's created his own sanctuary city in the basement or wherever he is and he doesn't come out,” Trump told Harris Faulkner on “Outnumbered Overtime.” The commander in chief went on to say, “And certainly if I don't win, I don't win.”

ALLENTOWN, Pennsylvania -- President Donald Trump, speaking to the Washington Examiner ahead of an event at a medical supply facility in this key swing state, took aim at Joe Biden's mental faculties, at one point claiming his Democratic challenger "has absolutely no idea what's happening." Trump was reacting to news that Biden had teamed up with former rival Sen. Bernie Sanders in naming Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez co-chair of a climate change panel, which Trump said would help cost Biden the state of Pennsylvania. "If you asked him who he named, he wouldn't even know it," Trump said. "Joe has absolutely...

WASHINGTON - President Donald Trump said Friday that he is willing to provide Joe Biden, his presumptive Democratic opponent, with a rapid COVID-19 testing system so Biden can return to the campaign trail. Trump, who this week made his first trip out of Washington in more than a month, relies on a federal supply of coronavirus tests so that he can maintain a more traditional schedule, while Biden has been isolating at home for nearly two months. In a telephone interview with “Fox & Friends,” Trump said he would be willing to provide the former vice president with the same...

President Donald Trump accused former Vice President Joe Biden and his son Hunter Biden on Sunday of being “paid off” by foreign interests. “The Biden family was PAID OFF, pure and simple!” Trump said. “The fake news must stop making excuses for something that is totally inexcusable.” The president pointed to the photo of the former Vice President playing golf with Hunter Biden and Devon Archer, a man who also served on the board of the Ukrainian energy company Burisma Holdings. Referring to Biden’s presidential campaign, Trump said the former Vice President should just “hang it up.” “Sleepy Joe won’t...

uring the 2008 presidential campaign, Barack Obama famously became so frustrated by his running mate’s logorrhea that he asked an aide, “How many times is Biden going to say something stupid?” According to authors Mark Halperin and John Heilemann, the VP’s stock had dropped so low by late 2011 that the Obama reelection team considered replacing Biden with Hillary Clinton on the 2012 ticket. And, as his busing blunder clearly demonstrated, Biden still has the old gift for gaffes. According to a new Washington Post-ABC poll, however, if the 2020 election were held today, Biden would beat President Trump by...

OSAKA, Japan — President Donald Trump on Saturday defended former Vice President Joe Biden's performance in the first Democratic presidential debate and said Sen. Kamala Harris got "too much credit" for her searing attack on Biden over his history on race and busing to desegregate schools. Although he conceded that Biden "didn't do well, certainly," Trump said the facts might not have been on Biden's side and that had he "answered the question a little bit differently, it would have been a different result." Speaking to reporters at a news conference after the G-20 summit in Japan, Trump said that...

President Donald Trump accused China on Wednesday of pulling back from agreed-upon trade deal language because Beijing would rather negotiate with former Vice President Joe Biden "or one of the very weak Democrats" hoping to win the White House. Trump launched his attack in a pair of tweets that moved equities markets. "The reason for the China pullback & attempted renegotiation of the Trade Deal is the sincere HOPE that they will be able to 'negotiate' with Joe Biden or one of the very weak Democrats, and thereby continue to ripoff the United States (($500 Billion a year)) for years...

by Jenn Carter President Trump spoke at the NRCC Spring Dinner on Tuesday night in Washington DC. Trump said he is confident Republicans will retake the House in 2020 after losing control of the lower chamber in last year’s midterm elections. He took a hilarious swipe at Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez' and her preposterous, $93 trillion Green New Deal, which called for the elimination of farting cows, air travel and heated homes in the next 12 years. Trump also roasted cowardly Democrats who are too scared to stop the AOC Crazy Train. President Trump: “The Green New Deal, done by a young...
