Several recent precedents offer House Republicans a clear roadmap on how not to deal with Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene: Under no circumstances should the Republican minority leader appear on glossy magazine covers celebrating the ascendancy of the radicals in the party as Nancy Pelosi did with The Squad. That's an easy one. Don't mainstream them. Republicans should never elevate anyone who believes that Jews are imbued with the power to hypnotize the world and/or armed with massive lasers -- though, as a Jew, I believe both could be quite useful -- as the House Foreign Affairs Committee Democrats did with...

The Deep State Thinks Trump Supporters Are the New Al-Qaeda Healthy democracies don’t label the opposition "terrorists" and eliminate basic civil liberties. The Washington Examiner, an ostensibly “conservative” publication, published an article this week demanding we treat right-wing “extremists” like al-Qaeda. In the article, former Homeland Security official Kevin Carroll argued we must do five things to protect our nation from this menace. The first is to “bring the heaviest felony charges possible on as many participants in the [Capitol] insurrection.” “We ruthlessly hunted down foreign terrorists after the Sept. 11, 2001 attacks and must do the same to their...

WASHINGTON, Monday, Feb. 4. The Virginia delegation in the Peace Convention are determined to demand the equality of the South in all the territory hereafter to be acquired, as well as in that now held by the United States, in order, they say, that the present settlement may stand forever. Temporary expedients they ignore. In this they are supported by the entire Kentucky delegation, and a majority from Maryland. Missouri it is understood will take the same position. The South will press for speedy action, as their Commissioners insist on a showing of hands immediately. The Northern delegations say they...

The Capitol breach of January 6th provided the citizens of the United States of America another wonderful opportunity to despise each other.It provided the left with the perfect excuse to engage in its favorite activity: a prolonged tirade against the right in general and Donald Trump in particular. Our new batch of politicians and the Mainstream Media couldn’t be happier.Let the Speculation Begin!In clearly what is an attempt to ramp up for the upcoming impeachment trial, a recent Bloomberg article alleges that Trump has money ties to the terrorists that stormed the Capitol.People on our side, however, insist that Antifa...

Mike Lindell became famous for making pillows, and then he became an enemy of the Left for supporting the second guy who had the audacity to defeat Hillary Clinton in an election. And speaking of elections, Lindell has been saying some… interesting stuff about the one we had in 2020. It’s so interesting, in fact, that he made a Newsmax anchor walk off his own show. I find Lindell’s theories unconvincing, but the man is entitled to his opinion. And, of course, the libs are entitled to their incandescent rage that a guy who makes pillows is saying stuff they...

Until today, no one has bothered to review the video footage from the TCF Center on election night. The Gateway Pundit requested the TCF video back in December! Advertisement - story continues below The TCF Center tried to quote us over $22,000 for one day’s worth of video. We requested two hours of video. Last Friday we were sent the requested video. Since last week we have been combing through the hundreds of hours of security camera footage from the TCF Center on the morning of November 4th. And what we found is a political bombshell. ** At 3:23 AM...

A voting technology company is suing Fox News, three of its top hosts and two former lawyers for Donald Trump – Rudy Giuliani and Sidney Powell – for $2.7bn. The lawsuit charges that the defendants conspired to spread false claims that the company helped “steal” the US presidential election, which was in fact fairly won by Joe Biden.

On Tuesday, November 3rd President Trump was ahead of Joe Biden in the swing state of Michigan by over 100,000 votes. This appeared to be another solid win for President Trump in Michigan with a greater margin than his 2016 victory. The ballot counting in Detroit, Michigan on election night took place at the TCF Center, formerly known as Cobo Hall. This is the site where Detroit City Officials put cardboard over the windows to prevent the GOP observers from seeing in, where poll workers were militantly hostile to the GOP observers, and where hundreds of affidavits by election observers...

On Thursday’s broadcast of MSNBC’s “Morning Joe,” Sen. Debbie Stabenow (D-MI) stated that we have to make sure teachers “feel safe” returning to school and that she doesn’t know the specific details on whether it’s safe for schools in Chicago and Washington, D.C. to re-open. Co-host Joe Scarborough asked, “Are the teachers’ unions dragging their feet too much on this?”

My brilliant late father, who would have turned 100 this week had he lived, was fond of delivering mock-pompous Johnsonian pronouncements (no, not that Johnson; I mean Samuel, of dictionary fame). Three in particular stick in my mind. The first was his reaction when I passed my 11-Plus, after I told him that school friends who'd been similarly successful in the exam had been promised bicycles by their parents. 'Bicycles, indeed!' he spluttered. 'I'd have thrashed you, my boy, if you'd failed!'

Cases of the virus are down 30 percent from last in the United States alone. The United States averaged 141,146 cases per day over the past week. This is a 30 percent decline from the average two weeks...

This isn’t a record – that honor is still held by Barry and Big MO – but 13 days in and we already have literally dozens of POTUS/FLOTUS cover–fluff stories. Like this: In First White House Interview, Joe & Jill Biden Talk Marriage, Family, Prayer — and the Challenges Ahead. Ground breaking material. From the neck down Dr. Jilly could pass for Nancy P, and from the neck up President-Good-Old-Joe could pass for Hank Johnson.Is the White House starting to feel like home?President Biden: It's surreal ... but it's comfortable. We were here for eight years, just not in this...

The liberal media told us that the election of President Biden was going to yank America out of its dark days plagued by the coronavirus, economic depression, and former President Donald Trump’s tweets, but a new survey shows that U.S. “satisfaction” has hit rock bottom. In the latest Gallup survey, satisfaction is the lowest the firm has recorded, down to 39%. And the survey started in 2001 showed its steepest one-year plunge, down from 53% a year ago, before the virus swept through the world and when the Trump economy was sky-high. “Americans' satisfaction with seven broad aspects of the...

The hashtag “#AOClied” began trending on social media following claims by critics that Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (AOC) wasn’t in the Capitol building during the riots in which she purportedly feared for her life. In an Instagram Live video earlier this week, AOC (D-NY) told an elaborate story about the day of the riots. It was a tale that encompassed accusing Republicans of using the same tactics as those who commit sexual assault and questioning if a Capitol police officer had purposefully put her at risk. Ocasio-Cortez said she hid in her office bathroom to remain safe. “I thought I was going...
