House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif) warned Trump to not fill the Supreme Court vacancy left by the death of long-serving Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg. She went on to ironically claim that "the appointment of a successor who does not share the same perspective on abortion rights will signal that the Republicans are coming after our children." The reality is that during her time on the Court Ginsburg was a staunch opponent of any limitations on abortion. She helped steer the Court to strike down many state statutes that sought to limit the carnage wrought against the tiniest humans. Her replacement...

The hero Bronx dad who was wounded as he shielded his three small children from gunfire at a Bronx car dealership this week lost his jobs because of the injury — according to a fundraising page that surpassed $100,000 on Friday.

The abuse came to light after a doctor alerted authorities that the girl was pregnant just after she turned 13 — and she said that four of her brothers, two of them also minors, had been having sex with her, according to the Webster County Citizen. The eldest two — Aaron Schwartz, 22, and 18-year-old brother Petie — admitted to police that they...

Just this week, enraged that they will lose control of the Supreme Court, the Democrats threatened that if they ever take control of the government again, that they will admit as many states as they need to in order to take control forever, and prevent Republicans from ever regaining control. Well, it goes much further than that. Earlier this year, Harvard Law Review published the blueprint of the actual MASTER PLAN. Admit enough new states so that they can pass new amendments that will completely rewrite our constitution, and our government. Some excerpts: "If we truly hold to be self-evident...

MSNBC “Morning Joe” host Joe Scarborough on Thursday claimed President Donald Trump is “placing this constitutional republic in jeopardy” if he does not accept election results because of mail-in ballot concerns. Friday, Scarborough again sounded off on Trump refusing to commit to accepting the election results, saying the people that still defend the President are engaging in “really stupid jackassery.” “It’s kind of crazy if you think about it,” Scarborough began. “The really stupid jackassery that’s going on out there by people who are trying to stay close to the President of the United States, what they don’t realize is...

A Democrat operative says the United States Postal Service (USPS) workers who despise President Trump will sometimes help election fraudsters by throwing in the garbage mail-in ballots from Republican-heavy neighborhoods. Last month, as Breitbart News highlighted, a Democrat operative told the New York Post‘s Jon Levine a number of stories in which insiders like him lead teams of fraudsters to commit election fraud by paying homeless voters off, taking advantage of the elderly, posing as registered voters, and printing up fake ballots. One notable tactic, the Democrat operative said, is how insiders will use USPS workers to help sway election...

President Donald Trump is preparing to unleash vicious lines of attack in the first debate with Joe Biden, according to a new report, leaving some Democrats fearful that their nominee will be unprepared to counter.

"Four years ago he [Trump] talked about what he wanted to do for the Black community and he brought about results," Jones told host Bret Baier.

Let's get down to brass tacks -- The communists have been trying to take over our country since world war two... and frankly, they're succeeding! Senator Bernie Sanders is openly socialist, BLM is admittedly Marxist... and we have Antifa fascists as political enforcers. Justice Lagoa is biased AGAINST communism and socialism... and THAT"S a bias on the court that I can live with. She is a logical choice. Yes, there are a lot of issues that us patriots champion... but if the communists -- under the guise of socialism take over -- these "issues" will be moot, because we well...
