The 50th anniversary of Neil Armstrong becoming the first man to set foot on the Moon is this weekend. Instead of using the celebration of the Apollo Moon landing to bring Americans together in a time of intense partisan bickering, the New York Times and the Washington Post are exploiting it to divide Americans even further. “The Apollo program was designed by men, for men. If we do not acknowledge the gender...

VIDEO An amazingly quick transformation. You can see in the July 13 video of Beto O'Rourke and his campaign team traveling in New Hampshire that his hair is now gray.

States like Washington have recently banned certain homemade firearms and gun-making kits like the 80% Glock frame, and 3D-printed firearms. We discussed the bill a few weeks ago, but to recap: Bill SHB 1739 effectively bans "undetectable" firearms: "Except as otherwise provided in this section, it is unlawful for any person to manufacture, own, buy, sell, loan, furnish, transport, or have in...

McConnell opened the media availability with a statement and then took questions, including one about his immigrant wife and current Secretary of Transportation Elaine Chao from CNN's Manu Raju.

Trump's tweets regarding congresswomen of color: "He has joined Andrew Johnson as the most racist President in American history." https:// on.msnbc.com/2jJoWQl

We will never be a Socialist or Communist Country. IF YOU ARE NOT HAPPY HERE, YOU CAN LEAVE!" the President said during a Twitter thread. "It is your choice, and your choice alone. This is about love for America. Certain people HATE our Country."

Please stop raising your hands in unison to provide answers to questions that might destroy whatever chance you might have to win the 2020 presidential election. That is the big worry of Washington Post columnist E.J. Dionne. And he is right. Answering affirmatively by raising your hand to the question of if you approve of giving health care to illegals or decriminalizing the unauthorized crossing of the border is pretty much a deal killer for the vast majority of American voters. Those raising their hands might get a warm, fuzzy feeling as well as the approval of the leftwing of...

I want to say this before I start off: I have no problem with a person’s sexual orientation or a person’s want or need for sexual experimentation. Now with that said, these boys are the reason why we need to stop claiming that black children don’t need their fathers…these little boys who look like any little girl you find out in the neighborhood. The black race has become an androgynous race. The black race looks like the 80s. You don’t know who is what. The women look like men, the men look like women…black women, you have failed.” — Atlanta...

If ever there was a sick society, it is Britain. Eaten from the inside first by Marxism, which collapsed its faith, families and traditions, the nation was then beset by massive Islamic immigration, which introduced new predators into the decaying socialist ecosystem, some of whom would target the weak, English girls, in new and horrific ways.
