Washington - The House Judiciary Committee will hear presentations from congressional investigators about the impeachment inquiry into President Trump's dealings with Ukraine as Democrats prepare to draft articles of impeachment. Monday's hearing will include testimony from Democratic and Republican attorneys from the House Intelligence and Judiciary Committees. The House Intelligence Committee submitted its report last week on its investigation into Mr. Trump's efforts to get Ukraine to open investigations into the 2016 election and a company linked to the Bidens. **SNIP** House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jerry Nadler said on Sunday that the committee will "presumably" introduce articles of impeachment this...

As the undisputed star of the new film No Safe Spaces – the hit documentary on academia’s descent into Orwellian tyranny features a quick shot of a lawyer letter I wrote to some collegiate gulag apparatchiks – I wholeheartedly recommend that you go see it. Adam Carolla and Dennis Prager take you on a guided tour of the insanity and evil that has gripped academia, and it’s utterly terrifying. You need to see it not merely to gape at the freak show but to learn what’s coming for society as a whole. The dreary conformity factories that pretend to be providing...

President Donald Trump had a quiet Sunday schedule, with just one afternoon event in the Blue Room. But by midnight, he had fired off 105 tweets and retweets, going for the usual suspects - Democratic rivals, the impeachment inquiry and allegations of fake news by the mainstream media. **SNIP** “I.G. report out tomorrow. That will be the big story!” the president wrote Sunday. **SNIP** “Less than 48 hours before start of the Impeachment Hearing Hoax, on Monday, the No Due Process, Do Nothing Democrats are, believe it or not, changing the Impeachment Guidelines because the facts are not on their...

Subtitle: Restore Constitutionalism. In another age not that long ago there were Congresses of the United States. These Congresses of representatives of the people and the states knew their first purpose was defense of the United States. All those rights and privileges put to paper are worthless without physical and cultural defense. If the United States are worth keeping, the United States could really use another Congress of the United States. In recent generations Congress largely resigned its responsibilities to the executive and judicial branches. The grand objectives of our governing form expressed in the lofty Preamble to our Constitution,...

Pregnancy resource centers offer a great deal of help to women experiencing unplanned pregnancies. In addition to free pregnancy tests and counseling, most provide baby items, maternity clothes, help applying for benefits, parenting classes, and even housing resources – all for free. In addition, pregnancy centers allow women to see ultrasounds of their babies and give women information about fetal development and the risks of abortion. Most abortion facilities do not give this information to women. Groups like Planned Parenthood fight tooth and nail against informed consent laws requiring women to be told about their preborn babies’ development and abortion’s...

Kooky fringe Democratic presidential candidate Marianne Williamson apparently got duped by a fake news article Monday when she claimed that President Trump had pardoned dead cult leader Charles Manson. “There is something deeply sinister about Trump pardoning Charles Manson, even posthumously. Dog whistles of the very worst possible kind,” the also-ran tweeted at 12:53 a.m. ...

Ramona Treviño is a former manager of a Planned Parenthood facility who left her job and is now pro-life. In her book, she shared the story of how a Catholic radio show helped open her eyes to the truth about abortion. Before she left Planned Parenthood, Trevino began having doubts about her work there. In her book, she writes: "For some time, I had been experiencing an unrelenting, secret turmoil.… I felt like someone engaged in an intense game of tug-of-war. At work, ‘every child should be a wanted child’ was a constant message. …This idea that every child should...

The Brexit Party will change its name to the Reform Party after the UK leaves the European Union, leader Nigel Farage has said. It will campaign for changes to the voting system and the abolition of the House of Lords, he told Sky News. Mr Farage, who has already registered the new party name, said it would "change politics for good". The announcement comes after a week in which the Brexit Party lost four Members of the European Parliament. One of the MEPs, Annunziata Rees-Mogg, warned that "the Brexit Party are permitting votes to go away from the Conservatives, providing...

House Democrats are stampeding to impeach President Trump without evidence of any crime. On Monday, Dems will make their case based on Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff’s impeachment report. It claims to present “stark evidence of misconduct.” In reality, the report plays tricks to frame Trump and damage his re-electability, while bending over backward to inoculate Joe Biden from accusations of foreign scandal. This isn’t a fact-finding report. It’s a Democratic campaign plan. Democrats can’t undo 2016, but they are determined to rig 2020. Tellingly, it treats Biden as if he has already got the nomination.

It sure can’t hurt. The Mike Bloomberg Family Foundation has poured money into a slew of programs in cities where the presidential candidate is now stumping for votes, according to a Post review of the entity’s 2017 and 2018 tax filings and other public documents. One of the initiatives, the Bloomberg American Cities Climate Challenge, awarded a total of $70 million to 25 cities to reduce their carbon emissions. The cities are in many key Democratic primary states and include Los Angeles, Philadelphia, Chicago and Atlanta.

If Joe Biden is elected president, his family — including his son Hunter — will have to stay out of foreign business, he said in an interview that aired Sunday. “They will not be engaged in any foreign business because of what’s happened in this administration,” Biden said on “Axios on HBO.” He made the declaration in an often-tense interview, during which Axios’ Mike Allen repeatedly pressed him on his son’s past work with the Ukrainian gas company Burisma Holdings while the elder Biden was vice president.

Kooky fringe Democratic presidential candidate Marianne Williamson apparently got duped by a fake news article Monday when she claimed that President Trump had pardoned dead cult leader Charles Manson. “There is something deeply sinister about Trump pardoning Charles Manson, even posthumously. Dog whistles of the very worst possible kind,” the also-ran tweeted at 12:53 a.m. Except that didn’t actually happen — and netizens were quick to point out Williamson’s blunder.

Well, that’s a big change. A formerly vegan influencer revealed to her fans that she spent 30 days eating nothing but meat and animal products.

The Justice Department's internal watchdog is set to release a highly anticipated report Monday that is expected to document misconduct -- including the deliberate falsification of at least one key document -- during the investigation into President Trump's 2016 campaign. At the same time, the report, as described by people familiar with its findings, is expected to conclude there was an adequate basis for opening one of the most politically sensitive investigations in FBI history. It began in secret during Trump’s 2016 presidential run before then-Special Counsel Robert Mueller ultimately took it over. The report comes as Trump faces an...

A U.S. citizen who kept an Islamic State flag and a cache of weapons in his New York City apartment was sentenced Friday to 22 years in prison after pleading guilty to providing material support to the terrorist group, the Justice Department announced. Sajmir Alimehmeti, a 26-year-old Albanian turned U.S. citizen, was sentenced Friday by U.S. District Judge Paul A. Engelmayer, who called him a "ticking time bomb." He called the Bronx man's conduct "terrifying." In February 2018, Alimehmeti admitted providing material support to the group.

House Democrats and U.S. Trade Representative Robert Lighthizer are nearing a deal for Congress to pass a modified U.S. trade agreement with Canada and Mexico, though hurdles remain, according to people familiar with the negotiations. House Democrats and Mr. Lighthizer have been meeting for months to hammer out a deal to amend the U.S.-Mexico-Canada Agreement, or USMCA, and have narrowed differences over key sticking points in recent days, the people said. The biggest divide is over revising the agreement on the enforcement of labor rules, a priority for Democrats. Mexico’s chief trade negotiator, the undersecretary for North America, Jesús Seade,...

EXCLUSIVE: House Intelligence Committee Ranking Member Devin Nunes blasted committee Chairman Adam Schiff for what he called an “alarming” and “blatant disregard” for the rules governing the House impeachment inquiry against President Trump, saying Schiff transmitted his investigative findings to the Judiciary Committee for the next phase in the proceedings without consulting him. Fox News exclusively obtained the letter Nunes, R-Calif., sent to Schiff, D-Calif., on Sunday night. In the letter dated Friday, Nunes wrote that Schiff chose not to consult with him so that he could meet a “bogus” deadline for impeaching the president. The GOP congressman also accused...
