Everyone get woke, and prepare for the Oppression Olympics. Today's guest is the Implementer of Intersectionality, the Eliminator of Entitlement, and the Ward of Woke-ness: Titania McGrath (a.k.a Andrew Doyle). Michael talks to Andrew about his recent, and reluctant, 'outing' as the voice behind Titania, about comedic influences, and about the role that satire has played throughout the course of history.

It’s fairly remarkable that Mother Theresa is now deemed hate speech.

VIDEO With the arrest of Julian Assange today on the heels of his removal from the Ecuadoran embassy in London, this is a good time to analyze who has been telling the truth over the years during the struggle between the WikiLeaks founder and the Deep State.

Republican Florida Rep. Matt Gaetz unveiled his new resolution targeting House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff for his handling of the Russian collusion theory, during Tucker Carlson’s Wednesday show. The resolution, titled “Preventing Extreme Negligence with Classified Information Licenses Resolution“—or “Pencil Act”—calls for Schiff’s resignation from the committee. The acronym is a reference to “pencil neck,” which is President Donald Trump’s recent nickname for Schiff. “Expressing the sense of the House of Representatives that Congressman Adam Schiff should be removed from the Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence of the House and that his security clearance should be revoked immediately,” the...

Roger Simon thinks Congressional Dems might want to treat William Barr a little more respectfully in future faceoffs as he may well hold their party’s future in his hands. The big story from Barr's testimony then before the subcommittee was not that the AG plans to release a redacted version of the Mueller report within a week or even that those redactions will be color-coded four ways and annotated to explain the reasons for the edits. Or that Democrats like Nita Lowey whined about transparency with all the hypocrisy only a politician can muster. This is all pro forma and...

It was only a matter of time. And in this case, it didn’t take long at all. After Representative Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) made her racist remarks about the “evil” and “hypnotic” influence of Israel, the undue influence of the Jewish lobby in Washington, (“it’s all about the Benjamins”), and the dual loyalty of American Jews, Democrats were on track to censure her by name from the floor of the House. But it never happened. Nancy Pelosi proved too weak. After almost a week of wrangling, the committee that drafted the final statement on the scandalous freshman representative released a final...

British police have further arrested WikiLeaks publisher Julian Assange on behalf of United States authorities under an extradition request, according to the U.K’s Metropolitan Police. In an update, the Metropolitan Police posted that Assange has been “further arrested on behalf of the United States authorities, at 10:53hrs after his arrival at a central London police station. This is an extradition warrant under Section 73 of the Extradition Act. He will appear in custody at Westminster Magistrates’ Court as soon as possible.”

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi says she dialed up President Donald Trump recently and requested a meeting to talk about working together on an infrastructure package. Pelosi tells The Associated Press she believes "the president truly wants to have an infrastructure bill." She calls it an initiative they "can share." She said in a Wednesday interview that the two spoke last week and are planning to meet.

Shooting Down the AR Hype – According to Ted Nugent With all the negative news about how lethal an AR is, why is it we don’t hear any bad news about shotguns? Enter the ageless Rock n Roll icon Ted Nugent to set things straight. In a recent episode of Alex Jones’ Info Wars, the rocker Ted Nugent shared his bits about the shotgun that we use to hunt ducks with are often overlooked and how it can be more devastating than an AR-15. Here are some of the things that Ted brought up about the shotgun: -If the shotgun...

It came down just after 6am Eastern Time US, 11am in London. Ecuador revoking Julian Asaange's asylum at its London embassy and the British police moving into the building to arrest Assange. Assange carried out by British police and placed into a van showing a beard on face.... For now, while British authorities are charging Assange with violating the terms of his bail, THE BRITISH POLICE SAY THERE IS A REQUEST FROM THE US FOR HIS EXTRADITION. Assange fled into Ecuador's embassy expecting to be extradited to the United States back in 2012. Its expected that he will eventually be...

oday’s Campaign Update (Because The Campaign Never Ends) Well, this will be an interesting day – but what else is new? – The Ecuadorian Embassy in London withdrew the asylum status it had granted WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange seven years ago, and turned him over to U.S. authorities. This just happened at about 5:00 a.m. Central Time as I was beginning to compile this piece, so I have no more details other than that. What do you do when the fake news fails? You double down on faking the news. – If you’re a Democrat or a Democrat activist pretending...

Washington Post columnist Jennifer Rubin has called for Attorney General William Barr to be impeached. "[I]nstead of impeaching Trump why not impeach Barr?", Rubin tweeted minutes after the second day of Barr's hearing before the Senate Appropriations Committee concluded Wednesday. Washington Post columnist Jennifer Rubin has called for Attorney General William Barr to be impeached. "[I]nstead of impeaching Trump why not impeach Barr?", Rubin tweeted minutes after the second day of Barr's hearing before the Senate Appropriations Committee concluded Wednesday. If the investigators are right and there turns out to be a whole lot of evidence of wrongdoing, Barr should...

Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has a positive 52-33 percent favorability rating among voters of her district nearly three months into her first term in Congress, and 48 percent of all voters and 61 percent of Democrats would vote to re-elect Ocasio-Cortez in 2020 while 39 percent would prefer someone else, according to a new Siena College poll of New York CD 14 registered voters released today. Fifty-seven percent of CD 14 voters think it was bad for New York that Amazon cancelled its plans to build a new headquarters in Queens while 32 percent say it was good for New York,...

Gay mayor Pete Buttigieg is on the warpath, and the main target in his sights in vice president Mike Pence, right behind that is the biblical model of Christianity. Buttigieg says that it’s time to more on from that old model, to something that is more ‘inclusive’ and ‘humane’. Why? Because the bible is against the LGBTQ+P for pedophile lifestyle, and Mayor Pete is not happy with that. “Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves: Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and...

There’s no shortage of anti-vaxxer’s at FR. I was wondering what their opinion is of taking a vaccine for an old-folks malady?

Hypocrite Bernie Sanders changes his tune on “millionaires and billionaires” after the media reports that he is one of them I want to start out by saying that I think it’s absolutely wonderful that Bernie Sanders became a millionaire by selling books to customers who wanted to buy them.I have no problem with the fact that Sanders is a millionaire.What I do have a problem with is his hypocrisy.On many, many occasions, Sanders has criticized “millionaires and billionaires.”This is a link to a video on C-SPAN’s website, which shows Sanders making such a statement. Here are his exact words: (skip to...

Attorney General William Barr delivered stunning, albeit obviously honest, remarks during congressional testimony today in response to Democrat Senator Jeanne Shaheen about his intent to review prior intelligence activities in targeting the Trump campaign. Before getting to the video and transcript, it is important to note how this line of questioning surfaces. The professional political apparatus, primarily Democrats – but also Republicans, who participated in the ‘soft coup’ effort are attempting to gauge the landscape of their risk by identifying AG Barr’s intention. This line of questioning is NOT organic or random; it is deeply purposeful and scripted. You can...

A new proposal in the U.S. Senate would help federal regulators fast-track the approval process for converting hormonal contraceptive pills from prescription to over-the-counter drug status. Known as the "Allowing Greater Access to Safe and Effective Contraception Act," it was introduced this week by Republican Sens. Joni Ernst (R–Iowa) and Cory Gardner (R–Colo.). Only the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) can approve the conversion, upon request from a petitioning drug maker. That's why recent movements to "free the pill" in states such as California and Oregon have only been able to dismantle the requirement for a doctor to write the...

The other day I was speaking before a group on the topics of homosexuality and transgenderism, and I asked, “How many of you would say the transgender revolution has been going on ten years now? Raise your hands, please.” Would you raise your hand? Almost half of them did. The truth? I gauge it off my book Critical Conversations: A Christian Parents’ Guide to Discussing Homosexuality With Teens, which I sent off to final editing and production right after the Obergefell gay marriage decision in June, 2015. I said almost nothing about the transgenderism it — because the transgender movement...

Dear How to Do It, I am a single woman in her early 30s. I’m attractive and have never had issues attracting a partner. But after a series of disappointing relationships, each around a year, I’m just not in a mood to engage emotionally with men right now. The thing is, I have a high sex drive, and I can’t fully satisfy myself on my own—though believe me, I try. The cliché is that this should be an easy problem to fix: Plenty of men want to have sex with a woman with no strings, right? Here are my limitations:...
