Today’s Campaign Update (Because The Campaign Never Ends) - Tired of all this Winning yet? Part I – Lunatic California Congressperson Maxine Waters will give a nationally televised speech on BET after President Donald Trump’s State of the Union Address Tuesday night. There is no more perfect voice and face for today’s depraved Democrat Party than Mad Maxine. Awesome. - Tired of all this Winning yet? Part II – But wait, there’s more! For their official response to the State of the Union, the Democrat Party has decided to go with yet another Kennedy! Yes, friends, you’ve probably never heard...

The White House appears to have banned Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) from participating in immigration reform negotiations due to recent strain between Graham and the Trump administration, as well as other Republicans in the House and Senate. Tensions first rose when Graham advocated for an immigration deal that failed to address President Donald Trump’s main concerns regarding chain migration and border security alongside Sen. Dick Durbin (D-Ill.). The situation worsened when the Republican senator criticized chief of staff John Kelly as never having “closed a deal before, politically” and top policy adviser Stephen Miller as being an “outlier” on immigration,...

Today’s Campaign Update (Because The Campaign Never Ends) Tired of all this Winning yet? Part I – the Dow jumped up by more than 220 points on Friday to close at yet another record high of 26,617. For those of you who invest in the markets, it has now added 7.7% to your 401(k) or IRA balance just in the first 26 days of 2018. Since Election Day 2016, the Dow is now up more than 44%. Let’s all remember and laugh one more time at the fact that Paul Krugman, the New York Times Nobel Prize-winning economist, told a...

December 21st is a day that will live in infamy. Remember that date. The world changed on December 21st and no one noticed. That will soon change. The great conservative talk host Michael Savage was the first to define liberalism as a “mental illness.” But it turns out liberals back then were relatively sane compared to today. Today’s liberals are frothing at the mouth, spitting, howling at the moon and threatening publicly to assassinate President Trump. One protestor at the Los Angeles women’s march this past weekend carried a sign that said, “Kill Donald Trump, Kill Mike Pence. It’s guillotine...

Full title: America First: European CEOs Go One By One To Tell Trump They Are Investing Billions Back In The US President Donald J. Trump hosted a dinner with European business leaders and CEOs at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland Thursday evening. Trump has been making the rounds in Davos, holding bilateral meetings with other world leaders and conducting business roundtables.

Today’s Campaign Update (Because The Campaign Never Ends) - Tired of all this Winning yet? – Americans for Tax Reform reports that, with Home Depot and Starbucks joining the party, the list of large companies offering employee bonuses and raises in response to the Trump tax reform has now grown to more than 250. Somewhere, San Fran Nan is having a nervous breakdown about all these “crumbs” being handed out. - Where in the world is Hillary Clinton? I noted the mysterious absence from public appearances by the Pantsuit Princess a couple of weeks back, but here we are, now...

RUSH: So Trump is over in Davos, and it isn’t going the way Drive-Bys dreamed it would go. Trump is being embraced. Trump is being celebrated. Trump is being lauded. The Drive-Bys expected Trump to be protested! They expected Trump to be shunned. They hoped for all of this, and what this presents us today is a great opportunity. You know, our all-time favorite audio sound bites — and it’s tough; I mean, it may not be the all-time favorite, but it ranks right there. It’s our old buddy Nic Robertson of CNN in Cairo (laughing) during the Arab Spring...

Today’s Campaign Update (Because The Campaign Never Ends) Everybody in the fake news media went berserk late yesterday (I know, I know, what else is new, right?) after President Trump calmly and with obvious intent told reporters that he is “looking forward to” meeting with Special Counsel Robert Mueller. The fake hosts at CNN, MSNBC and Fox News immediately put together panels of about 82 know-nothing fake reporters and “experts”, all of whom said some variation of “he’s crazy, he’s a novice, his lawyers should never let him do that!” Personally, as is pretty much always the case with Donald...

Today’s Campaign Update (Because The Campaign Never Ends) If the NFL were any more self-destructive we’d have to call it the DNC – the grand poobahs who run the NFL rejected an ad proposed for its Super Bowl game program by the military veterans group AMVETS because it was “too political.” The ad simply urged fans to stand for the national anthem at the game, using the phrase #PleaseStand, which the NFL judged to be unacceptable. I swear I don’t make this stuff up. Here’s some advice for you when reading the news in the coming weeks and months: Don’t...

Today’s Campaign Update (Because The Campaign Never Ends) - Tired of all this Winning yet? Part I – Late last week, as it became increasingly apparent that the Democrats in the Senate were going to cause a shutdown of 14% of the federal government, various fake news media outlets carried reports predicting the stock market would tank on Monday if that were to happen. One clown on CNN or MSNBC, I forget which, predicted the Dow Jones would fall 1,300 points. He was apparently channeling Paul Krugman with that bit of hilarity. Of course, that did not happen. The Dow...

Today’s Campaign Update (Because The Campaign Never Ends) It’s Day 2 of the Great 14% Government Shutdown of 2018. Believe it or not, the sun is still going to rise in the East, promise. Your kids still get to go to school. Your TV and internet services are still going to function, so you’ll still get to watch all those people on CNN and MSNBC – and hell, even Shepherd Smith on Fox News – lie about the news all day long. Your junk mail will still be delivered by the U.S. Postal Service, and your real mail will still...

Today’s Campaign Update (Because The Campaign Never Ends) It’s Sunday, and somehow we’re all still here! Yes, friends, despite the “shutdown” of almost 14 whole percent of our national government for a full day, American society has inexplicably managed to survive, as 330 million citizens who Democrats don’t give a damn about and 800,000 DACA “kids” who average 26 years of age who Democrat pretend to care about soldiered on through their daily lives. It’s a miracle! God bless us, every one! The pussy hat-wearing, profanity-shouting “Women’s” marchers were back at in on Saturday, and nobody still knows what exactly...

Today’s Campaign Update (Because The Campaign Never Ends) Tired of all this Winning yet? – Yesterday’s Campaign Update told you that shutting down the government would be the best outcome for the Republicans. Lo and behold, we have our government shutdown, as the Republicans completely out-maneuvered the Democrats on one of these things for like the first time ever. They have President Trump and Chuck Schumer, who completely over-played a terribly weak hand to thank for that. With polls showing that 70% or more of the public wanting to do “something” to “protect” the poor DACA “kids” – many of...

Today’s Campaign Update (Because The Campaign Never Ends) - Tired of all this Winning yet? Part I – The New York Times released a poll on Thursday showing Americans’ support for the recently-passed Tax Cuts and Jobs Act is soaring upwards as people wake up to the fact that they’ve been lied to about its impacts by the Democrats and their agents in the fake news media. This comes before the new tax withholding tables begin to result in higher paychecks for working folks. Just wait until that kicks in. This is all very predictable. - Tired of all this...

Today’s Campaign Update (Because The Campaign Never Ends) - Tired of all this Winning yet? Part I – The Dow Jones Industrials closed above 26,000 on Wednesday for the first time. The Dow is now up more than 40% since the day U.S. voters chose to elect Donald Trump to the office of the presidency. - Tired of all this Winning yet? Part II – Apple, of all companies, announced that it will invest more than $350 billion in the U.S. economy over the next 5 years.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: January 17, 2018 Contact: Press@paul.senate.gov, 202-224-4343 ICYMI: Dr. Rand Paul: ‘President Trump Has Had a Year of Accomplishments’ WASHINGTON, D.C. – In his latest op-ed for TIME, U.S. Senator Rand Paul (R-KY) looked back on President Trump’s achievements during his first year in office. “I do not always align with President Trump — and I have voiced my opposition at times, including voting against some of his nominees and initiatives. But I will tell you, he has had some great success through his first year, and I look forward to what 2018 will bring,” Dr. Paul stated...

Today’s Campaign Update (Because The Campaign Never Ends) - The Democrat/fake news media effort to paint President Donald Trump as a racist became the theater of the absurd on Tuesday, thanks to the histrionics of Cory Booker and the lack of self-awareness of Rep. Luis Gutierrez. - In ranting against Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen during a hearing, the execrable Sen. Booker used language and bullying gestures that would have made any Republican a target of the #Metoo movement. He gets a pass from the fake news media because he’s a Democrat targeting a Republican woman – who we all...

Today’s Campaign Update (Because The Campaign Never Ends) - A new HBO Film that fake-documents the last year of the Obama Administration will premier on Jan. 19. The Daily Caller reports this morning that the film contains a scene in which ex-UN Ambassador and serial unmasker Samantha Power hosts an Election Night “female empowerment” party for women diplomats from all over the world to celebrate the impending victory by the Pantsuit Princess. “I thought what an amazing night for them. I mean, that’s what America represents to the world, when a glass ceiling is shattered in our country, it creates...

Today’s Campaign Update (Because The Campaign Never Ends) - What is wrong with voters in Arizona? In all seriousness, how does a single state end up electing the likes of John McCain and Jeff Flake to be its senators? Of course, McCain won re-election yet again in 2016 just based on his name, but there is literally no excuse for Jeff Flake, who is blessedly reaching the end of his first – and only – senatorial term. - To Arizona citizens’ credit, Flake’s approval rating in his home state has hovered in the teens over the last year as he...

Today’s Campaign Update (Because The Campaign Never Ends) - For about half an hour on Saturday, the people in Hawaii thought their state was under nuclear attack. Isn’t that lovely. What turned out to be a false message was sent out by the Hawaii Emergency Alert Agency (HEAA) because “someone pushed the wrong button,”, according to the Agency’s head, Vern Miyagi. That’s a hell of a wrong button to push, Vern. - So for 30 minutes everyone in the Islands panicked, for good reason. People were screaming, crying, shoving babies into storm drains, dogs and cats living together, mass hysteria!...
