Free Republic

In a 2013 email published a few days ago by WikiLeaks, Hillary Clinton expressed views wildly at odds with those of the American citizenry: “My dream is a hemispheric common market, with open trade and open borders.” Most of Donald Trump’s Republican defectors are poised to help her achieve her open-borders dream. As Republican elites continue to defy Republican voters on the crucial issue of immigration, it’s not surprising that the Senate’s open-borders crowd is refusing to back the man who—largely because of his hawkish immigration position — was chosen by Republican voters to be their party’s nominee. While only...

“I want to appoint Supreme Court justices who understand the way the world really works"

Democracy can be ugly. And what Republicans like McCain and Ryan have had so much trouble accepting is that the voters in the primaries flocked to Trump. . It doesn't matter who had the best chances to win the general election. Even if Trump is a long shot to win the election, (and he probably won't be for long; look for the polls to steady themselves in another week or so), he can now present himself as the true man of the people no Republican presidential candidate has been able to be or even look like since Ronald Reagan. The...

BEGIN TRANSCRIPT RUSH: Man, oh, man, oh, man. I really hope you people have your stiff spines in today and for the duration, because I have never seen it like this. I don't believe I have ever seen the daily soap opera, the script, the narrative so ramped up, amped up, one-sided. The left is behaving almost like they are in panic. There's something about this is just really odd. By the way, greetings, folks. Great to have you here. 800-282-2882 if you want to be on the program. The email address, ElRushbo@eibnet.com. Uh, that's right, it's syllable memory. It's...

I was 13 years old in 1960 when JFK ran for President. I remember much of that time even a visit by JFK and Jackie to our town. I live in Massachusetts so I was at the center of Kennedy country. But even the excitement of the 1960 campaign pales when compared to the excitement of the Trump campaign. Kennedy didn't pack huge auditoriums with 10 or 20 thousand people everywhere he went. There is a name for what Trump is doing--it is a PHENOMINUM!

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Hillary Clinton's campaign is confronting an emerging risk to her presidential ambitions - if Donald Trump continues to trail her in opinion polls many Democrats may simply stay at home on Election Day. Without enough popular support, Clinton would enter the White House lacking the political capital she would need to drive through her agenda. In the worst-case scenario it could cost her the presidency if Republicans turn out in big numbers on Nov. 8. Clinton, the Democratic nominee, has spent much of her campaign sounding the alarm over the prospect of a President Trump. She has...

“WE’VE ALL BEEN CONTENT TO DEMEAN GOVERNMENT, DROP CIVICS AND CONSPIRE TO PRODUCE AN UNAWARE AND COMPLIANT CITIZENRY…UNAWARENESS REMAINS STRONG BUT COMPLIANCE IS... FADING RAPIDLY. This problem demands some serious, serious thinking - and not just poll driven, demographically-inspired messaging..."

Following the leaked tape of GOP presidential candidate Donald Trump making lewd comments about women over the weekend, members of the Republican Party started to distance themselves. And NBC seemed quite giddy about it as they kicked off NBC Nightly News Monday with “Civil War” emblazoned across the screen. As if he was announcing the latest Marvel blockbuster Anchor Lester Holt declared, “With Donald Trump's fortunes fading over his lewd comments about women, a GOP civil war has broken out.” “Tonight, abandonment and astonishment as the country's top Republican walks away from the top of his ticket,” hyped NBC’s Hallie...

They say that "life imitates art"...or is it the other way around...the lines are getting so blurred. In any event, we thought we would take this opportunity to highlight some of the most startling discoveries we found so far in Doug Stamper's...sorry, John Podesta's emails. You have to admit there are some similarities there and they even have the same position...hopefully the Clinton Foundation is receiving royalties from HBO... Yesterday we pointed out the many amazing one-liners offered up by Hillary as she was out collecting millions of dollars for her "Wall Street speeches." Here is an expanded sample: Hillary...

Bill and Hillary Clinton have been hounded by rumors that their marriage is nothing but an arrangement set up by two power-hungry budding politicians with big dreams. Rumors have even floated around the idea that the former First Lady is, in fact, a lesbian. Possibly adding some credence to these rumors, two former mistresses of Bill Clinton, Sally Miller and Gennifer Flowers, have claimed that Mr. Clinton told the ladies that Hillary is a lesbian who apparently ate “more p***y” than he did. On Tuesday, former Miss Arkansas Sally Miller claimed that Bill told her about Hillary’s preferences during their 1983 affair while Mr....

When the election is Constantine vs. Diocletian, Christians don't get to stay home. Should Christians get behind Donald Trump? As I’ve demonstrated here, on every criterion of politics, it seems to me that electing Donald Trump is less dangerous to the preaching of the gospel, the safety of Christian institutions from colleges down to the family, and the lives of unborn children. We don’t have to believe the claim that he’s even a “baby Christian” to recognize that this is true. Winston Churchill wasn’t any kind of Christian, but he defended our institutions and our freedoms, and that was all...

Few if any candidates for federal office will tell you that as a consequence of current federal law, young Americans are being screwed in two life-changing ways. First, under current law, every Social Security beneficiary under the age of 48 will have their promised benefits cut by a third. And second, every young person who works is contributing between $10,000 and $20,000 to the health care and retirement of those lucky Americans who are already drawing benefits under federal law. In some ways the second screwing is worse than the first. Young workers do not have the defined benefit retirement...

Friday in Bristol, PA, while campaigning for Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton, Vice President Joe Biden acknowledged the lack of enthusiasm for his party’s nominee. Biden said, “I know some of you, and some of the people you are trying to convince are not crazy about Hillary. I know that. Okay. I think she has gotten an unfair deal. But the truth of the matter is there is a lot of people—but folks don’t , don’t wake up on November 9 and find out we lost Pennsylvania by 2000 votes and say if I only. If I had only taken...

In a meeting with the National Border Patrol Council, Donald Trump seemed to agree with the assertion that the U.S. government is allowing immigrants into the country so they can vote in the election. At the gathering Friday morning in Trump Tower, Art Del Cueto, national vice president of the labor union representing Border Patrol agents, which has endorsed Trump, first suggested the idea. “Some of these individuals that [we’ve] apprehended with criminal records,” he told Trump. “They’re setting them aside because at this point they are saying immigration is so tied up with trying to get the people who...

During a debate Thursday at the National Conference Center, the audience openly laughed at Virginia Democratic congressional candidate LuAnn Bennett when she attempted to tout Obamacare’s affordability. “For the last 50 years, both parties have agreed that we have a health care crisis,” Bennett said. “By 2005, we had 47 million uninsured Americans, and health care costs had grown to 16 percent of our GDP. The Affordable Care Act has made health care more affordable [laughter] –and it’s created access,” she said.

"I Listened To A Trump Supporter... Now I Understand" by Tyler Durden Oct 6, 2016 7:54 PM 0 SHARES Submitted by Mike Krieger via Liberty Bltizkrieg blog,The following article by David A Hill Jr is simply outstanding.Here are some powerful excerpts from the piece: I Listened to a Trump Supporter I talked at length with a Trump supporter I grew up around. I wanted to understand. I respected her growing up. I wanted to know why a person as kind and compassionate as I remember her is voting for someone like Donald Trump. She was a family friend, a good person. In rural Ohio, everything...

Several conservative lawmakers say the election of Donald Trump as president could advance their agenda. Despite Trump's history of liberal policy stances, Republican Study Committee Chairman Bill Flores says that the GOP presidential nominee is embracing key issues in the House GOP's "A Better Way" agenda on the campaign trail. "Donald Trump's been going at it in his own interesting way of doing it ... he talks about repealing and replacing ObamaCare ... he's talking about tax reform. It's not the tax reform in [our agenda], but he's talking about tax reform, so we can sit down and work those...

Tennessee is ground zero for ObamaCare’s nationwide implosion. Late last month the state insurance commissioner, Julie Mix McPeak, approved premium increases of up to 62% in a bid to save the exchange set up under the Affordable Care Act. “I would characterize the exchange market in Tennessee as very near collapse,” she said. Then last week BlueCross BlueShield of Tennessee announced it would leave three of the state’s largest exchange markets—Nashville, Memphis and Knoxville. “We have experienced losses approaching $500 million over the course of three years on ACA plans,” the company said, “which is unsustainable.” As a result, more...
