After praising Nancy Pelosi’s antics at last night’s State of the Union address, The View hosts reserved their rage for President Trump awarding Rush Limbaugh the Presidential Medal of Freedom Award. Co-host Whoopi Goldberg claimed the influential talk radio host had done nothing to deserve it, while co-hosts Joy Behar and Sunny Hostin attacked Limbaugh as a racist bigot. Whoopi began the segment by snarking, “I’m sorry, but I thought the medal of honor, freedom, was supposed to go, to people who actually did stuff.” Behar backed up Whoopi’s diss of Limbaugh with, “Well it went to Mother Teresa and...

It is uncomfortable to face violent threats. We endure that discomfort because it is better to face them than run from them. Communists in the US have flocked to Senator Bernie Sanders’ campaign, and the things they want to do are horrible. Fortunately, we’ve faced threats like this before and we’re prepared to face them again. The US model of limited government and empowered people is up to the dangerous task of defending liberty. We are made for this. I’m not going to put words in the mouth of American Communists. Project Veritas recorded many Sanders’ staffers in candid conversations....

President Donald Trump used his State of the Union speech last night to call for protecting babies from late-term abortions, and he celebrated the gift of life by honoring a girl born so prematurely doctors didn’t know if she would survive. The president also celebrated jobs for Americans including women and minorities, thanked a soldier & his family for their service, honored a young boy and his educational pursuits, and asked that God bless the United States and provide it His grace. Apparently that was too much for pro-abortion Speaker Nancy Pelosi to handle — so she ripped up the...

Wanted to run this by you guys. Am I doing something wrong?

except, of course, for Ilhan Omar. If the female US Representatives wearing white last night at the SOTU address were wearing hats, they would have looked like the women's auxiliary of the Knights of the Ku Klux Klan.

One of the reports wrote, “At State Council’s press conference on Feb, 3, Tian Yulong, chief engineer of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, announced that by Feb. 1, the daily output of the diagnosis kits had reached 773,000, which is 40 times the number of suspected patients. Therefore, China’s medical facilities now have a sufficient supply of diagnosis kits.” The other report, however, quoted a medical expert as saying that there is a shortage of diagnosis kits in Wuhan City, the epicenter of the coronavirus outbreak.

MSNBC journalists on Wednesday responded with excitement to the news that Mitt Romney will vote to convict and remove Donald Trump from office. Brian Williams cheered that the move as “historic” and will “cement Romney’s legacy.” Reporter Garrett Haake touted it as “unlocking his super power.” Williams, who famously lost his job as anchor of the NBC Nightly News for telling lies, marveled at taking seriously one’s oath: “How about a guy willing to talk about the consequences of taking an oath before his God?”

Adrienne Bogen, former Vice President Joe Biden’s Iowa field director, will leave the campaign in the wake of initial numbers from the Iowa caucuses that show Biden coming in fourth, Politico reported. “We had precinct captains who didn’t know how to run a caucus. And a few didn’t even show. We lost friggin’ people on the second ballot of voting in the caucus! Someone’s head had to roll,” an upper-level staffer with the Biden campaign told the publication. Bogen is the first post-Iowa departure from the campaign, Politico reported, citing several sources within the campaign. SNIP Bogen was previously field...

My Aussie comic character Jim Cousens has been found to be not up to “community standards” on facebook. So facebook has banned the link www.jimcousens.com It is impossible for me to find out exactly why or discuss this censorship with them. Do Free Republic readers have any comment? (A specific question: do you as Americans have trouble understanding the accent? Would it be easier if there were subtitles?)

See Ya!

Pierre Dellicto has decided to vote to convict Donald Trump, “The president is guilty of an appalling abuse of public trust. What he did was not perfect. No, it was a flagrant assault under electoral rights, our national security and our fundamental values,” he declared. after much handwringing and a consultation with God “I swore an oath before God to exercise impartial justice. I am profoundly religious. My faith is at the heart of who I am. I take an oath before God as enormously consequential,” said the senator. I don’t believe that for a second. Lots of theories have coursed...

Totally burns Romney. We have a President who fights and I love it!!!

FBI Director Christopher Wray testified Wednesday that the actions taken by the bureau to obtain a Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act warrant against former Trump campaign aide Carter Page were “unacceptable” and “cannot be repeated.” During his first congressional appearance following the release of Justice Department Inspector General Michael Horowitz’s FISA review last year, Wray vowed to reform the FISA system by implementing “specific procedures and safeguards.” “The failures highlighted in the inspector general report are unacceptable, period. And they cannot be repeated,” Wray testified before the House Judiciary Committee. “I have already ordered more than 40 corrective actions to our...

Fox Nation's Tomi Lahren had some strong words for House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., after the Democratic leader made a show of ripping President Donald Trump's third State of the Union address in half. "Nancy quite literally ripped the achievements of this country in half," said Lahren on her Fox Nation show "Final Thoughts" on Wednesday.

LOS ANGELES — Kirk Douglas, renowned actor and father of Michael Douglas, with a decorated career spanning more than six decades, died Wednesday, Feb. 5 at 103, TMZ reported. Kirk Douglas’ health had been in decline. In 1996, he suffered a stroke, but recovered most of his faculties. TMZ reported Wednesday the last time he was seen enjoying life was in April 2019 when he was “camping” in his grandson’s backyard. Douglas appeared in a few minor Broadway productions in the ’40s but then put his career on hold and enlisted in the U.S. Navy in 1941. After several years...

“I don’t care how you feel about somebody,” Jones continued. “That was probably the most disrespectful thing I have ever seen in my life. Because, when she did that, it just tore us up. We couldn’t believe it.” President Trump shared the tragic death of Jones’ brother with the nation, saying California’s sanctuary state policy, which has had “catastrophic results,” allowed his killer to be released from jail. When Jones was introduced and the cameras turned in his direction, he was in tears, crying over the loss of his brother — Pelosi looked on with limited interest, at best.
