"They think you are a joke. Prove them wrong in November."

Adam Schiff has been carrying the water for the Deep State for decades. Let’s travel back to 1990 when Adam Schiff was working as a federal prosecutor for the Justice Department who was hell bent on prosecuting a FBI Agent for “espionage” which by today’s standards would look like a weak shoplifting case. Schiff was chasing FBI Agent Richard Miller for trading a secret FBI manual to the Soviet Union for sex, money and a Burberry trench coat. Yes, that is it. Imagine those headlines today? Miller’s case wouldn’t even get a sniff in the Andrew McCabe era. After three...

DES MOINES, Iowa -- Over two dozen people stormed into former Vice President Joe Biden's Des Moines headquarters looking for answers on health care Monday night. Their singing and demanding action led to the arrests of five people, including John Reardon and William Floyd. "We have seen some of our members die because they didn't have access to health care and so we wanted to bring that urgency that we face every day," said Floyd. Both 22-year-olds live in the metro and were among those arrested and charged with trespassing in their attempt to speak with Biden about his opposing...

As the defense lawyers for President Trump ended their three days of arguments in the impeachment trial in the Senate, the Los Angeles Times reported that Sen. Dianne Feinstein of California became the first Democrat to suggest that she might vote to acquit him. “Nine months left to go, the people should judge. We are a republic, we are based on the will of the people — the people should judge,” Feinstein said Tuesday. “That was my view and it still is my view.”

Lt. Col. Alexander Vindman’s identical twin brother Army Lt. Col. Yevgeny Vindman, a senior ethics lawyer for the NatSec Council is in charge of reviewing book approvals, according to sources who spoke to Breitbart News. Recall, Alexander Vindman, who leaked Trump’s call to the whistleblower because he disagreed with Trump’s foreign policy, showed up to testify in the House hearings against Trump in his uniform.

Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., Tuesday called on former national security adviser John Bolton to hold a press conference to expand on a New York Times bombshell report that claimed Bolton wrote in his upcoming book that President Trump explicitly tied $391 million in Ukrainian military aid to investigating the Bidens. “John, you’ve kind of thrown the country into a ditch here,” Graham told Fox News' Martha MacCallum. “Just come forward and say what’s on your mind, hold a news conference and we’ll consider what you’ve got to say if you think it’s that important."... He added that even if what...

Nissan 7201.T is planning aggressive cost cuts to deal with an unexpected slump in sales as the expansionist strategy it inherited from fugitive former Chairman Carlos Ghosn flounders, four people familiar with the plans said. Japan's second biggest carmaker is set to eliminate at least 4,300 white-collar jobs and shut two manufacturing sites as part of broader plans to add at least 480 billion yen ($4.4 billion) to its bottom line by 2023, two of the people told Reuters. The moves come on top of a turnaround plan unveiled in July and are likely to include cutting Nissan's range of...

A happy ending for a 140-pound pot-bellied pig who was attacked in the Aptos hills last month. The pig, who is now affectionately referred to as Vanna Gogh, is being taken care of by the Santa Cruz County Animal Shelter before she'll be moved to her new forever home at the Little Hillside Sanctuary in Monterey County. Advertisement Gogh had suffered severe injuries and both her ears had to be amputated, which led to her new name. "Her ears were kind of hanging kind of shredded. It appears she was attacked by dogs, coyotes, we're not really sure," said Erika...

A high-profile case prosecuted by Amy Klobuchar when she was a top Minnesota county attorney has come under fire — with questions arising over whether the teen her office put behind bars for life is actually guilty. Findings from an investigation conducted by the Associated Press challenge the 17-year-old case that the presidential hopeful has promoted to show her commitment to racial justice. Myon Burrell, who is black and was 16-years-old in 2002, was convicted for firing a stray shot that killed 11-year-old Tyesha Edwards, who is also black, as she was doing homework at her dining room table in...

House Democrats impeached President Trump for putting his own political fortunes ahead of the national interest in dealing with Ukraine. But it’s Joe Biden who should be on the hot seat for that. Trump is criticized for a July 25 phone call, when he asked the president of Ukraine for help investigating what Biden did as vice president to get a prosecutor there fired. At the time, Biden’s son Hunter was on the payroll of a corrupt Ukrainian energy company, Burisma, which was targeted by authorities.

Three years into President Donald Trump’s first term and the news media still don’t understand how we got here. Saturday, CNN Anchor Don Lemon show blasted Trump, his administration and his supporters. It was almost like CNN was trying its best to create a clip Trump could use in an ad to win his second term. That meant Lemon, who last June said he might have to leave TV because of “toxicity,” laughed uproariously at his own toxic TV show. And the network that regularly complains about “hateful speech” by the administration, actually promoted the incident.

Democratic presidential candidate Michael Bloomberg caught flack after a viral video from a campaign stop in Burlington, Vt. showed him shaking a dog's mouth instead of his paw. In the awkward encounter, Bloomberg first shook a man's hand before shaking the open mouth of a dog and then scratching the top of his head. Although the dog appeared unharmed, some social media users were wounded over the exchange.

There is absolutely no way they will call witnesses. The Swamp is totally corrupt. It has become worse than ever. (Read Peter Schweitzer’s new book.) They see nothing wrong with enriching themselves and their families by selling their influence. The Senate, both Democrats and Republicans, is the most corrupt of all. They are unbelievably slick and sophisticated at it. All of the senators are doing, in some form, what Joe Biden did. Isn’t it revealing that *no* senator — even Lindsay Graham, Marsha Blackburn, Rand Paul, or Bernie Sanders — has said they think Biden did anything wrong? Likewise, they...

West Virginia's Republican governor urged counties in Virginia that are unhappy with their state's Democratic majority to secede and join his state. Gov. Jim Justice proposed the long-shot bid during a news conference Tuesday with Liberty University President Jerry Falwell Jr. “If you’re not happy where you’re at, come on down,” Justice said. “If you’re not truly happy where you are, we stand with open arms to take you from Virginia or anywhere you may be. We stand strongly behind the Second Amendment, and we stand strongly for the unborn.”

Sean Hannity publicly invited former National Security Adviser John Bolton to join his show during his opening monologue Tuesday, as Democrats hope to subpoena him as a witness in President Trump's ongoing impeachment trial. "I have a message for John Bolton tonight. You have something to say, John? Come here," Hannity said. "You worked here. This is your old home. Come on the show. Have your say."

President Trump headlined a jam-packed rally in Wildwood, New Jersey, on Tuesday night, hours after his attorneys wrapped up their opening arguments in his Senate impeachment trial -- and minutes after sources told Fox News that Republicans don't have the votes yet to block additional witnesses who could extend the proceedings. An elevated level of enthusiasm was evident in the larger-than-normal crowd sizes inside and outside the Wildwoods Convention Center, and Fox News spoke to several attendees who had been waiting more than 24 hours to ensure they would be seated.
