WASHINGTON - - “Lack of talent.” Unlikable. “Mean.” President Donald Trump laced into former Democratic candidate Elizabeth Warren on Friday, insisting that sexism wasn’t to blame for the end of the Massachusetts senator’s presidential campaign. Speaking to reporters as he signed an emergency $8.3 billion funding package to help tackle the coronavirus outbreak, Trump was asked whether he thought sexism had anything to do with Warren’s departure from the Democratic presidential race. “No, I think lack of talent was her problem. She has a tremendous lack of talent,” Trump responded. The president commended her debate performances, saying she “was a...

WATCH: ‘Disturbed’ Protester Unfurls A Nazi Flag At A Bernie Sanders Rally Thursday Night BY CHRIS WALKER March 6, 2020 During a presidential campaign rally for Sen. Bernie Sanders on Thursday night, a man in the crowd several rows above the candidate unfurled a red flag with a swastika emblazoned on it, the symbol of the Nazi Party in Germany from the 1930s and 1940s. The symbol, then and now, is symbolic of anti-Semitism and white supremacy, and was seen as a direct confrontation and disturbing protest against Sanders, who is Jewish. Supporters at the rally booed the man, and promptly tore...

Senator Chuck Schumer’s threats against Justices Gorsuch and Kavanagh are not only outrageous and dangerous. They could well be a precursor of what we can expect should the Supreme Court advance the pro-life cause. There will be rage. There will be intimidation. There will be threats. And there will be violence. The same people who were scratching and pounding the Supreme Court doors during the Kavanaugh hearings will not sit quietly should Roe v. Wade be overturned.The same people who violently attack peaceful pro-life protesters will turn all the more violent should pro-life legislation be passed.In terms of physical attacks...

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) is intensifying its operations in 10 sanctuary cities, deploying approximately 500 special agents to increase surveillance around the homes and workplaces of undocumented immigrants. ICE has started its 24-hour-a-day surveillance operations as part of its enhanced arrest campaign. It has requested the transfer of hundreds of special highly-trained agents who typically work on long-term investigations involving human trafficking and dangerous criminals, the New York Times reported on March 5. In the coming weeks, the additional officers have been instructed by officials to “flood the streets” and operate in unmarked cars to ramp up arrests...

NBC political analyst and Democratic strategist Cornell Belcher told MSNBC's Chris Hayes on Wednesday the coalescing around Joe Biden by suburban voters is a "revolution by the bourgeoisie. " "Seeing our elections moving forward, it is like ... the older voters have their say in presidential years and the younger voters have more of a say (in midterm election)," Belcher observed. "I think the most stark thing that happened on Tuesday was there was a revolution, Chris, going on in our country but it's not the kind that Sanders thinks. It's a revolution by the bourgeoisie," Belcher declared. "What's happening...

As expected the neo-Nazi Democrat Party blocked legislation to combat the anti-Semitic BDS movement. To add insult to injury, this act of betrayal is just days after the AIPAC Policy Conference. A strong pro-Israel Jewish organization in the United States is urgently needed. An organization that is not afraid to go to war against the anti-Semitic Left. #Jexodus!

<p>The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) has lost more than half of its Washington-based employees who were slated to move out West as the agency pushes ahead with a controversial plan to relocate staff. New internal numbers from the Interior Department obtained by The Hill show 69 employees have left the agency rather than accept the new assignment. Another 18 left after the plans were announced but before they could be reassigned. Those 87 employees outnumber the 80 who have agreed to the move.</p>

On February 26, 2020, I spoke at the U.S. Army War College's Heritage and Education Center in Carlisle, Pa. The title (and topic) of my talk was lifted from my last book: Sword and Scimitar: Fourteen Centuries of War between Islam and the West. Since then, I have received a number of questions concerning the event — how it was, how I was, if there were any disruptions, if the event even took place at all — which I hereby try to answer. First, as many know, the terrorist-linked Council on American-Islamic Relations ("CAIR") tried again through press releases and...

The infamous Blue Bell “ice cream licker” is going to jail for the crime he committed at a Walmart in Port Arthur, Texas, in August. Wednesday, County Court At Law Judge Terrance Holmes sentenced D’Adrien L’Quinn Anderson to jail for licking the contents of a Blue Bell ice cream tub and placing it back on the store’s shelf on August 19, according to the Port Arthur News.

SAN FRANCISCO —Military helicopters delivered testing kits Thursday to a cruise ship being held off the coast of California, as officials in Washington faced angry questions about whether the vessel is set to become the latest breeding ground for the deadly novel coronavirus. The Grand Princess, which was returning to San Francisco after a two-week cruise to Hawaii, remained offshore and in limbo at the request of California Gov. Gavin Newsom (D). About 100 people were expected to be tested, among them 11 passengers and 10 crew members who have shown potential signs of covid-19, the respiratory disease caused by...

When Democratic leader Sen. Chuck Schumer threatened two sitting Supreme Court justices this week, some reporters and other Democratic politicians attempted to downplay his unprecedented attack by falsely claiming he was echoing what Justice Brett Kavanaugh had said during his contentious confirmation hearing. Only the completely ignorant or willfully duplicitous person could make such a comparison.[snip] "I want to tell you, Gorsuch, I want to tell you, Kavanaugh, you have released the whirlwind and you will pay the price. You won’t know what hit you if you go forward with these awful decisions.">

Brooklyn prosecutors on Wednesday defended their decision not to seek bail for an illegal immigrant charged with raping a 13-year-old girl when he was 19 — describing it as “a sexual relationship.” “The case was reported by the girl’s mother, alleging that her daughter had a sexual relationship with an older teenager, which constituted statutory rape,” a spokesman for Brooklyn District Attorney Eric Gonzalez’s office said. “Accordingly, we did not request bail for this nonviolent felony that allegedly took place a year-and-a-half ago.” Guatemalan national Miguel Federico Ajqui-Ajtzalam, now 20, was arrested Thursday and hit with charges including second-degree rape...

VIDEO Few candidates have exited their unsuccessful campaigns with more self-pitying WHINING than Elizabeth Warren. She used the old excuse of blaming gender as a way to avoid the fact that voters simply did NOT trust her due to her own actions such as backstabbing Bernie Sanders by accusing him of sexism. Also breaking her own campaign promises didn't help with her credibility issues. Of course, she is now using the fact that Sanders supporters criticized her online as an all too politically convenient EXCUSE to decline endorsing him thus earning brownie points from the Democrat establishment. Perhaps she...

SEATTLE – As Washington state grapples with coronavirus, one Seattle research institute is taking matters into their own hands. Kaiser Permanente Washington Health Research Institute got the OK to begin its vaccine trials, the first of its kind. Its research team is enrolling 45 healthy people, ages 18 to 55, from the Seattle-area over the course of 14 months. “[The trial] does not include any form of the live virus, and the trial will not expose participants to the virus,” said Rebecca Hughes, senior media consultant with Kaiser Permanente. The trial is part one of three-phases that will study the...

New York Times editorial board member Mara Gay joined MSNBC’s Brian Williams Thursday night to talk about Michael Bloomberg’s campaign spending, affirming a wildly inaccurate social media claim that Bloomberg could have instead given every American $1 million and had money leftover. Gay and Williams referenced a March 3 Tweet from journalist Mekita Rivas, which said, “Bloomberg spent $500 million on ads. The U.S. population is 327 million. He could have given each American $1 million and still have money left over. I feel like a $1 million check would be life-changing for most people. Yet he wasted it all...
