    Say, that’s a real nice police department you got there. Real nice. You know, it’d be a real shame if something happened to it. Like what? Oh, I don’t know. You just never know when positions might be eliminated or things like that. But that doesn’t have to happen. Just give us more money by letting us raise your taxes and that nice police department you got will be just fine. Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett is sounding an awful lot like The Godfather’s Tom Hagen these days as he tries to pressure both the State Legislature and Milwaukee County voters...

    SALT LAKE CITY — Reports emerged last week that some Republican donors are encouraging Utah Sen. Mitt Romney to run against President Donald Trump in 2020, and Romney addressed those rumors Thursday by saying there is "no circumstance I can conceive of that would have me running for national office again.” But that isn't stopping some Republicans from trying to change his mind. Anthony Scaramucci, Trump's short-lived former communications director turned prominent critic, tweeted a link Friday to a website selling Romney 2020 T-shirts and attempting to "nudge" the senator into a run. Featuring slogans like "commit to Mitt" and...

    Roger Stone outed Fiona Hill in 2017 as a Deep State spy in the White House under then NSA Advisor General H. R. McMaster. The George Soros connected traitor was outed by Israeli spies as was reported by Stone at InfoWars. InfoWars reported on Hill and suggested she may be one of the current deep state anti-Trump “whistleblower.” "The second White House whistleblower in the Democrats’ Ukraine witch hunt is none other than George Soros operative Fiona Hill, Infowars has learned. Infowars was contacted by sources close to the president confirming our suspicions that Fiona Hill is definitely one of...

    The Chinese government asked the N.B.A. to fire a team executive who posted on social media in support of pro-democracy protesters in Hong Kong, the league’s commissioner, Adam Silver, said on Thursday in his first public appearance in the United States since returning from a contentious trip to Asia. “We said there’s no chance that’s happening,” Silver said. “There’s no chance we’ll even discipline him.” The executive, Daryl Morey, the general manager of the Houston Rockets, set off the international firestorm with a Twitter post using a slogan used by the protesters in Hong Kong, just as the league was...

    It began with 25 candidates. It’s been reduced by half, yet concern persists among Democrats that the party should look beyond the still standing contenders and seek an individual capable of party unification and persuade him or her to enter the race. It is an acknowledgement that each of the current candidates is burdened by baggage — ideological or personal — but seem determined to take the contest through a string of expensive, exhausting and bitter primaries. Former Vice President Joe Biden, whose lead has shrunk to single digits or vanished altogether, has been hurt by periodic mental lapses and...

    PORTLAND, Ore. (KATU) – The mother of a Portland activist killed over the weekend in a crash urges mourners not to leave messages on a building near the crash site and to stop talking publicly about the case. Workers have already removed most of that graffiti.

Surrounded by graffiti left behind following her son’s death, Laura urged people to stop leaving messages and to stop speculating on the internet about what happened. Laura said, “I...

    Trump had been in office 2 years and he runs with the open intention of being a thorn in the side. The deplorables can be forgiven for reelecting Hatch time and time again. It's incumbency. Now we have another McLame in the senate. Chavetz/Love would have been the same. Just look at how the other Senator has changed. It's the Mormon thing. No one should trust them. I almost think they're in bed with the Moozlems. Tell me I'm rong.

    Hunter Biden's only qualification for obtaining a seat on the Amtrak board of directors in 2006 was that he often rode trains. That's according to his father Joe Biden's Delaware colleague in the Senate, Tom Carper, who offered the sole nomination speech for the younger Biden when his name was presented in the Senate Commerce Committee. In his prepared remarks, Carper said Biden would be an "excellent addition" to the board, but was unable to list any reason beyond his frequent use of trains. "More significantly, Hunter has spent a lot of time on Amtrak trains," Carper said after listing...

Under the National Emergencies Act, a resolution ending the...

    A video released by a senior police officer to mark International Pronouns Day has come under fire from social media users. Deputy Chief Constable Julie Cooke, from Cheshire Police, released the 29 second video on Twitter underlining why she was backing the campaign. Having started in the USA, International Pronouns Day aims to encourage people to use the correct terminology when talking to those who are transgender or gender nonconforming. But social media users have encouraged the senior officer to concentrate on policing the county. Mandy: "Here’s a Mad far left wacky Idea, Why not Identify as a Police force?...
