WASHINGTON (AP) — Speaker Nancy Pelosi once predicted she’d have the 2020 House Democratic majority secured by November — of 2019. Now, days before the Nov. 3 election, she seems to have done it, and she’s expanding her reach. With control of the House hardly contested, Pelosi is working to fortify Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden and win extra House seats in case Congress is called on to resolve any Electoral College dispute with President Donald Trump. Pelosi said she feels so confident Democrats will keep the House this election, she’s already preparing to win the next one in 2022....

For over 100 years, U.S. legislation called The Jones Act has dictated that only American-owned, crewed, registered and built ships can transport cargo between U.S. ports. An even older law — the Passenger Vessel Services Act of 1886 — bans foreign-registered ships from transporting passengers between ports in the U.S. How do these rules impact the cruise industry? Quite significantly. The Jones Act was passed as part of the Merchant Marine Act of 1920 and justified on national security grounds as a way of boosting the U.S. maritime industry. Folded into the Jones Act is much of the content of...

At a time when the US just reported record numbers of new cases, some traders - and the general population - are starting to ask if the US economy faces a new round of lockdowns, especially under a Joe Biden administration (who frequently likes to remind his fans "listens to the scientists" which supposedly also includes such "experts" as Minneapolis Fed president who has been demanding a 6-week hard lockdown of the economy). As BofA summarizes, US cases have now eclipsed the July peak as with the 7-day average of new daily cases topping 68k for the first time....

A lawyer for the Trump campaign is demanding answers from the Philadelphia Board of City Commissioners after a photograph appeared to show Mayor Jim Kenney violating election law, the Delaware Valley Journal has learned. Kenney explained his actions and said no laws were broken. The complaint is in a letter to the Board of Commissioners, obtained exclusively by the Delaware Valley Journal, and is a follow-up to one the Trump campaign sent last week. The new complaint was sparked by a picture of Kenney that appeared in Thursday’s Philadelphia Inquirer. Because of Pennsylvania’s laws against ballot harvesting, people can only...

Seattle has had a rough go of it for 2020, and that’s not even taking into consideration the pandemic. Liberals have overtaken the city. First, they had to deal with CHAZ, the Capitol Hill Autonomous Zone. Now, they’re dealing with radical leftist leaders who want to allow the criminals to rule while punishing the law-abiding citizens. Seattle officers are done with it all – and many are retiring years before anticipated just to distance themselves from the stupidity. While they could turn in their paperwork and go silently, they’re standing up to their oppressors. They’re being bold and honest in...

Some of us have been warning you all about the many risks in “early voting” for quite a while... there is always more to learn about candidates, and, strangely enough, most of it hits during the month of October. Some of you, for example, voted early, for Joe Biden and Kamala Harris... before the most recent debate, before the huge revelations about Joe Biden's family and their corruption network, which has now proven to be so much bigger than most of us ever suspected. How many Americans voted for Biden, days or weeks ago, and are now kicking themselves for...

Back in September, a gunman walked up to two Los Angeles Sheriff’s Department deputies who were sitting in their patrol car and opened fire. Both officers are still in critical condition from their gunshot wounds. This is just one of several violent attacks against law enforcement since the death of George Floyd. As the officers were rushed to the hospital, protestors blocked the emergency entrances and exits to the hospital, shouting “We hope they die.” These types of vile and violent protests, rioting, and destruction have taken a hold of many American cities since late May, after George Floyd was...

The Department of Education will not lower grades for late work or attendance this academic year, according to its new policy. “Schools must ensure that their grading policies and practices acknowledge the impact of remote and blended learning models on the ways in which students must complete their assigned work,” reads the document, which was emailed to principals Monday morning.
