Melania Trump has a distinct sartorial sensibility — with a wardrobe full of chic dresses and soaring stilettos. While listening to husband President Donald Trump speak yesterday at the U.N. General Assembly, Melania stuck with a combo that’s worked for her before: a coat dress and heels. The coat dress was a cream-colored, wool-crepe piece from Gucci’s pre-fall ’19 collection. The coat has a notched collar, four zip-up pockets and a logoed belt. It’s available for purchase on Net-a-Porter.com for $3,980. For footwear, Melania went with silver pointed-toe pumps. The shoes featured a slim stiletto heel and a textured upper.

The White House has released the transcript of Donald Trump’s phone call with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky. What it reveals is damning, but only for former Vice President Joe Biden, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, and the establishment media. Instead of being some threatening phone call where the U.S. president holds aid or other threats over the head of the Ukrainians, the call actually displays Trump’s commitment to one of his key 2016 campaign pledges: draining the swamp.

Bishop Joseph E. Strickland - "Strickland breaks silence on McCarrick" Bishop Joseph E. Strickland of Tyler, Texas, wouldn’t label himself as “bold.” [snip] “Honestly, I guess I’m bold enough to just say what I think,” he said. Even “if it gets me in trouble — sometimes it does — I’m going to be true to what I believe. It really saddens me to be considered bold for simply reading the Catechism out loud.” “When I was ordained a bishop almost seven years ago, I said I’d guard the deposit of Faith entire and incorrupt,” Bishop Strickland said. “That’s what...

By Tuesday evening after House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) announced a formal impeachment inquiry of President Trump, the Trump campaign raised $1 million as donors pledged their financial support for the president. The calls for impeachment had come amid allegations that Trump withheld military aid from Ukraine in order to pressure it to investigate Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden and his son, Hunter. As Pelosi announced details about the inquiry, the president took to Twitter, calling the inquiry “presidential harassment,” and a “total witch hunt.” They never even saw the transcript of the call. A total Witch Hunt! — Donald...

EDWARDS AIR FORCE BASE, Calif. — The U.S. Air Force is testing an improved,vegan version of the classic Cold War throwback weapon napalm, according to Air Force officials. The new weapon is expected to be able to burn the enemies of the United States to death while assuaging serious moral and environmental concerns. “Napalm is just a mix of a gelling agent and a volatile petrochemical,” said Louie Fleischer, a supervisory technical support specialist with the 96th Test Wing. “Historically, we’ve used animal-based gels. But now that the Department of Defense systemically rejects the commodity status of animals, we are...

The Justice Department revealed that U.S. Attorney John Durham, picked by Attorney General William Barr to look into the origins of the Trump-Russia investigation, is investigating whether Ukraine was involved in any 2016 election efforts. “A Department of Justice team led by U.S. Attorney John Durham is separately exploring the extent to which a number of countries, including Ukraine, played a role in the counterintelligence investigation directed at the Trump campaign during the 2016 election,” DOJ spokeswoman Kerri Kupec said Wednesday. “While the Attorney General has yet to contact Ukraine in connection with this investigation, certain Ukrainians who are not...

By now you’ve likely heard two competing versions of what was in the transcript of the phone call between President Donald Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky over the summer. Democrats and their sycophant allies in the crap media are claiming it’s a smoking gun! Proof Trump blackmailed Ukraine to investigate Joe and Hunter Biden or else no military aid! Trump has committed treason!! etc. Republicans, meanwhile, are pointing out that there is nothing like that in the transcript. Trump never even mentioned a “quid pro quo.” He never threatened anyone. And he didn’t bring up investigating the Bidens “eight...

As the Impeach-o-crats continue in their rabid quest to remove our beloved President Trump from office WITHOUT BASIS, I am reminded of the NUMEROUS FELONIES AND OTHER HIGH CRIMES committed by these evil America-haters for which they've ESCAPED JUSTICE. I am asking my fellow FReepers to help me compile THE DEFINITIVE ITEMIZED LIST of Democrats who've ESCAPED JUSTICE for their serious crimes, knowing THEIR Deep State media will continue to PROTECT THEM BY COMPLETELY IGNORING THEIR CRIMES AND DISTRACTING US WITH FAKE ACCUSATIONS ABOUT PRESIDENT TRUMP. Do we have a Two-Tiered justice system in the United States? Yes. Do our...

Q is the result of the sacrifices and commitment of countless patriots to win back our captured country from the Deep State and achieve the transformation President Trump promised in this campaign video. President Trump has said the awakening of the public is key to this transformation. Q describes this awakening as follows: "The Great Awakening ('Freedom of Thought’), was designed and created not only as a backchannel to the public (away from the longstanding ‘mind’ control of the corrupt & heavily biased media) to endure future events through transparency and regeneration of individual thought (breaking the chains of...

don't think people are watching this the way we do, the way news people, the way political junkies do. The average person in Kansas and Iowa and all these other places you’re talking about, they're busy with their lives. Now, watch it every day. See what he did. Then come to your conclusion about whether he's destroying the country or not. Sunny Hostin agreed, saying that was why it was important to have impeachment proceedings,( to bring the public to the left?) Yet McCain reiterated, “69% [disapproval of impeachment] is a staggering number.” Abby Huntsman pointed out that after Nancy...

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi was singing a very different tune on impeachment when it was President Bill Clinton who was being accused by a Republican-led House of Representatives. “Today the Republican majority is not judging the president with fairness, but impeaching him with a vengeance," then-House Minority Leader Pelosi declared on the House floor in December 1998. She continued, "In the investigation of the president, fundamental principles which Americans hold dear -- fairness, privacy, checks and balances -- have been seriously violated and why? Because we are here today because the Republicans in the House are paralyzed with hatred of...

A hair stylist has revealed that we should only wash our hair once a week - and we can just use water to rinse it in between washes. Paul Windle, owner of Windle London, reveals that if you wash your hair too much you get a rebound effect and the scalp keeps making more oil - therefore making it look and feel more greasy. The top stylist also revealed that if our hair does feel dirty then a simple rinse with water can be just as effective as using a product, as shampoos and conditioners just loosen any dirt in...
