The case agent managing the FBI's investigation of Flynn told Department of Justice attorneys that a desire to "get Trump" was a major factor underlying the case against Flynn. In a stunning and detailed interview conducted September 17 by U.S. attorney Jeff Jensen, the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) case agent for the original investigation of former White House National Security Adviser Michael Flynn and who later worked on Robert Mueller’s Special Counsel blew the whistle on myriad problems that plagued those investigations from the very beginning. FBI Special Agent William Barnett told Department of Justice (DOJ) investigators that the...

Sen. Doug Jones (D-Ala.) said on Friday that he will not support confirming a Supreme Court nominee before the November election.

Donald Trump’s campaign announced on Saturday that it has over 2.2 million volunteers working to return him to the White House in November. “The @realDonaldTrump campaign is officially the largest grassroots movement in presidential history surpassing the @BarackObama campaign,” Trump campaign Political Director Chris Carr posted on Twitter. “Trump Victory has 2,275,878 volunteers and counting thanks to the BOLDNESS of this President!” he wrote.

During a portion of an interview that aired on MSNBC on Saturday, former Vice President Joe Biden, the Democratic Party’s nominee for president, compared his general opponent, President Donald Trump, to Nazi Germany propagandist Joseph Goebbels. “He’s sort of like Goebbels,” Biden said. “You say the lie long enough, keep repeating it, repeating it, repeating it, it becomes common knowledge.”

The liberal media isn't waiting for President Trump to announce Amy Coney Barrett as his nominee to the Supreme Court before beginning its attacks on her [the show aired this morning, before the announcement.] On today's AM Joy show on MSNBC, guest host Tiffany Cross and frequent guest Elie Mystal of The Nation unleashed a one-two punch on Barrett. Cross called ACB a "wolf in sheep's clothing." And Mystal repeatedly accused ACB of being a "hypocrite."Get the rest of the story and view the video here.

A mysterious, many-armed sea creature — initially described as a large "red glob" — lying on a rocky shore in Washington has drawn in cephalopod experts across the country, each wondering what this gelatinous animal is. The 3.5-foot-long (1 meter) beast's identity was at first elusive; was it the shallow-water East Pacific red octopus (Octopus rubescens)? Or perhaps it was a very lost deep-sea vampire squid (Vampyroteuthis infernalis) or a deep-sea dumbo octopus (Grimpoteuthis)? The likely answers (no, no and no) led scientists to yet another species: the seven-armed octopus (Haliphron atlanticus), a deep-water creature that is rarely seen as...

I don’t know when it first hit me that the world had gone nuts. It might have been when an American white woman named Rachel Dolezal self-identified as black on national television despite both her parents being white. That was nuts. Or perhaps it was when Altrincham Grammar School for Girls in Manchester asked staff to refrain from calling female students ‘girls’ because it might offend transgender students – yet didn’t change the gender-specific name of the school. That was nuts. Maybe it was when there were strident calls from radical feminists – who, like all radicals, destroy support for...

Leftist/Democrats currently are in an absolute panic over the death, and very probable replacement by a Republican president, of US Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsberg. They are now promoting the unsubstantiated and wholly strange ideology that a justice - no, just THIS justice - should be replaced: - with a woman - with a person of similar judicial philosophy - by a Democratic President, purportedly the next president Where did ANY of these bizarre demands have their genesis? As far as the last demand, it has been emphasized in several rational recent public discussions how that the appointment of...

During an interview on MSNBC on Saturday, Senate Judiciary Committee member Sen. Richard Blumenthal (D-CT) stated that he will not meet with Judge Amy Coney Barrett if she is nominated to fill Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s Supreme Court seat “Because I think it would treat this process as legitimate, which it is not.”

Although Amy Coney Barrett is the president's choice to replace Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, she is more aptly described as heir to another departed Supreme Court justice: conservative hero Antonin Scalia. Like Scalia, for whom she once clerked, she is a committed Roman Catholic as well as a firm devotee of his favored interpretation of the Constitution known as originalism. Those qualifications delight many on the right but dismay liberals and others who fear her votes could result in the chipping away of some laws, especially the Roe v. Wade decision legalizing abortion. President Donald Trump announced his choice of...

Gayle King of CBS News found herself in the social media crosshairs after questioning House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s use of the word “henchmen” to describe the president’s associates in an interview. The television journalist’s name was trending on Twitter early Saturday as folks slammed King, who called out Pelosi’s language as “egregious” and questioned whether the California Democrat’s words were “just as insulting as what [the president’s] saying about you.” “Dear Gayle King, Trump cronies are henchmen. They are prepared to engage in crime, dishonesty, violence, and debauchery to defend the pathological lying, racist, wannabe dictator in the White House....

Where will you go to find another country that provides the opportunities and individual guarantees of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness outlined in our founding documents and guaranteed by a government of, by and for the people? Name a country that offers you and your family the same or more than our United States of America? The answer is: Nowhere; there isn’t such a place. This is our land, these are our people, these are our cities, neighborhoods and streets and this is our country. President John F. Kennedy described America as the beacon of hope for others...

Two former Republican lawmakers wrote an op-ed on Friday explaining why they are supporting Democrat Joe Biden instead of President Trump in November, arguing Trump is "an ill-formed man who lacks basic self-control and shows no semblance of inner character." Former Reps. Charles Djou (R-Hawaii) and Mickey Edwards (R-Okla.) in an opinion for Roll Call condemned Trump's "childish name-calling, crude behavior and immature narcissism.".... Djou and Edwards said the Democratic presidential candidate is "not a perfect man, but he is a man of humble decency."

Kentucky’s black attorney general just isn’t black enough for a lot of radical activists. The co-founder of the Women’s March, Tamika Mallory, called Kentucky Attorney General Daniel Cameron a “sell-out negro” who is no different from those black tribes that sold Africans into slavery. Apparently, Black Lives Matter only if they think a certain way. Cameron, a Republican widely seen in Kentucky as a possible successor to Senator Mitch McConnell, has come under fire from black activists and white liberals for his decision not to charge two of the officers involved in the Breonna Taylor killing with a crime.

President Trump announces his nominee for Associate Justice of the Supreme Court of the United States live from the White House Rose Garden.

For the Supreme Court announcement today, the Rose Garden is made to look similar to June 14, 1993 — the day Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s nomination to the high court. SEE...

Democrats now have their talking points.. Some White colonizers "adopted" Black children. They "civilized" these "savage" children in the "superior" ways of White people, while using them as props in their lifelong pictures of denial, while cutting the biological parents of these children out of the picture of humanity.

Democratic presidential nominee former Vice-President Joe Biden rebuffed charges that his proposed policies are "socialist" by pointing out that "I beat the socialist in the primary. After my South Carolina primary win drove all the other candidates from the race it was one-on-one between me and Bernie. I whipped him good." "You know, never once have I read the term socialist or socialism off the teleprompter I use to make my campaign speeches and answer interview questions," the Candidate recalled. "I think the absence of those words pretty definitively proves I'm not a socialist. As for the allegation that I...

What is wrong with Joe Biden? 77-year-old Joe Biden misread his teleprompter on Saturday during a virtual event. Biden said he got to the Senate “180 years ago.” That explains a lot. “That’s why I’ve made it a priority my entire career to work closely with you,” said Biden. “From the time I got to the Senate 180 years ago, you know.” he said with a chuckle.

With all of the hoopla going on about Trump appointing his third SC Justice, as well as the huge ideological differences between the Democrats and the Republicans, the current Justices are worthy of Secret Service protection. In all my time on FR as well as other sources, there has been no mention of SS protection of the SC Justices. What about their family? No better way to get the attention of an SC Justice that to harm or murder one of their family members.
