Twitter has decided that investigative journalism is in violation of their terms of service - @Project_Veritas has been temporarily suspended from posting for tweeting internal communications from @Pinterest which show them calling @benshapiro a "white supremacist" @JamesOKeefeIII This is CRAZY. @Twitter is now censoring @Project_Veritas for publishing "internal communications" from @Pinterest in which they call @benshapiro a white supremacist. Did Twitter apply this so-called privacy standard to Wikileaks? Or HRC's emails? Or Trump's tax documents? NO @Liz_Wheeler The media routinely publishes corporations' leaked internal communications. And leaked White House transcripts. Will CNN, ABC, etc. be banned next, or is this...

President Donald Trump says he is considering moving about 2,000 additional U.S. troops into Poland from Germany or elsewhere in Europe. But Trump cautioned during an Oval Office meeting Wednesday with Polish President Andrzej Duda that a final decision has not been made. Trump said the United States has based tens of thousands of troops in Germany for a “long, long time” and that he probably would move a “certain number” of those personnel to Poland, “if we agree to do it.” “We haven’t totally made up the decision,” he told reporters as he appeared with Duda in the Oval...

JAMES MADISON in the 43d number of the Federalist says: "As treason may be committed against the United States the authority of the United States ought to be enabled to punish it: but as new tangled and artificial treasons have been the great engines by which violent factions, the natural offspring of free governments, have usually wreaked their alternate malignity on each other, the Convention has with great judgment opposed a barrier to this peculiar danger by inserting a Constitutional definition of the crime." The Constitution confines the crime of treason to two species; First, the levying of war against...

Today’s Campaign Update, Part II (Because The Campaign Never Ends) Man, are the Democrats having a bad week, or what? It’s just Wednesday, and it’s hard to imagine how things could go more poorly for them. Let’s go through some of the highlights, er, lowlights. Monday began with Jabba The Nadler backing down on his plan to hold Attorney General William Barr in contempt, as he announced a “deal” with the AG’s office in which his Witch Hunt Committee would receive a few of the documents they’ve been demanding but have no intention of actually reading. Obviously, this means that...

An InfoWars journalist who was attacked at a recent rally for Democrat presidential candidate Pete Buttigieg is calling for openly gay mayor of South Bend to personally “condemn the violence.”

In light of Kamala Harris stating that if elected, she would indict Trump, if Saturday Night Live was a balanced show (which it is not) it would have skit showing a debate among the Democrat presidential candidates in which they try to top each other in claiming what they would do to Trump if they got elected. Any suggestions of what should be in the skit would be appreciated here.

Student loan debt has become a major concern for young people. In response, some Democratic candidates for president are offering “free college” proposals. Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders was the first presidential candidate to propose this in 2016. His plan came with a price tag of $47 billion and had the federal government covering two-thirds of the cost. In 2019, Massachusetts Senator Elizabeth Warren proposed a more ambitious plan that would forgive student loan debt for everyone with a household income of less than $100,000. Some states, too, have embraced free college: Currently, 21 of them offer some kind of tuition-free...

President Donald Trump claimed executive privilege to block Congress’ access to documents about how a citizenship question was added to the 2020 census. The move came as the House Oversight and Reform Committee was beginning proceedings Wednesday morning to hold Attorney General William Barr and Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross in contempt of Congress for failing to comply with the subpoenas.

VIDEO YouTube's Rewind 2018 turned out to be such an incredible disaster that it quickly became that platform's most disliked video of all time. So this year it is expected that YouTube will avoid the mistake of featuring celebrities and concentrate more on YouTubers themselves. However, the problem is if they do that how do they ignore prominent YouTubers such as PewDiePie and Logan Paul who they have very noticeably shunned last year? In addition, the biggest controversy by far this year is the demonetization of Steven Crowder's Louder With Crowder, not for violating any specific policies but because someone...

Today’s Campaign Update (Because The Campaign Never Ends) The Creepy Plagiarist strikes again. Joe Biden’s biggest problem…well, ok, his biggest problem is that he can’t keep his hands off of women and children in inappropriate ways…Joe Biden’s second biggest problem is that his mind has always been an empty vessel waiting to be filled by the ideas of others. The simple fact of the matter is that Joe Biden has precious few original thoughts, and the few he does have invariably end up blurting out of his gaping mouth at inconvenient moments. Like the time he said that all 7/11...

I stopped visiting Drudge regularly a couple years back when he sold out to who-knows-who for who-knows-why. Since then I’ve relied on other excellent news aggregators, primarily Larwyn’s Linx, Bad Blue and Whatfinger. Along with Instapundit that pretty much covers the waterfront. Lately I’ve noticed some headlines at Whatfinger titled “Humor-Satire” such as these, from today: Humor-Satire: Andrew Heaton: Libertarian Laughter To Lighten Us Up – Part 2Humor-Satire: Does A Politician’s Moral Character Matter? A Handy Flowchart Which made me wonder, have things become so crazy that we actually need a warning that what we are about to read is...

The 6.5 Creedmoor is recognized in the precision long range shooting arena as one of the most accurate and powerful cartridge, which is also used in hunting. With the power to throw a powerful punch, the Hornady round could easily catch an average whitetail by the use of a relative case. Regardless, a lot of people still choose to go with 7mm-08 Remington while deer hunting as its salient feature is an excellent balance with propellant charge, bullet, and precision. 7mm-08 Remington vs. 6.5 Creedmoor, which of these rounds would be able to give you more value when you are...

The Trump Administration has opted to use an Army base in Oklahoma to hold growing numbers of immigrant children in its custody after running out of room at government shelters. Fort Sill, an 150-year-old installation once used as an internment camp for Japanese-Americans during World War II, has been selected to detain 1,400 children until they can be given to an adult relative, according to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. The agency said Fort Sill will be used “as a temporary emergency influx shelter” to help ease the burden on the government as it prepares to house...

Organizers of a drive to have a proposed assault weapon ban constitutional amendment on Florida’s 2020 ballot said they have topped 100,000 signatures and expect to get a review of ballot language by the Florida Supreme Court any day.

CNN runs Pride Month essay by married mother of two (a former CNN reporter) who watches Saturday Night Live, decides to leave her husband and break her family up to live as a lesbian. No, really, this is a thing that happened: But there I was, at 36 years old, realizing I didn’t know myself at all. I had everything I thought made my life perfect. I was married to my best friend and we had two beautiful, healthy and hilarious children, with successful careers and a beautiful home. My life would change forever after a simple Google search in...

A lot of Americans do not like President Trump’s vulgarities, the name-calling, petty Twitter feuds and previous adulteries. But they love the flag-hugging, make-America-great-again, straight-talking President Trump that is presiding over an awful lot of good in the country and clearly puts American interests first. He’s not a global community kind of guy. He’s America first. And it points to a powerful but underestimated strength of President Trump: His genuineness. He doesn’t poll test and run focus groups to figure out which policies are popular and which phrases to use like so many politicians do. He doesn’t (very much) kowtow...
