If Nikolas Cruz had been arrested for his prior criminal behavior he would not have passed a background check for a firearm purchase. The issue was/is not the background check; the issue was/is the lack of a prior arrest. Hence, the Broward County school and law enforcement policy is ultimately what failed. I don’t say this lightly, but the lawyers have the easiest case for ‘wrongful death’ lawsuits in the history of this type of litigation. The county policy constructed by public officials (School Board and Superintendent), and the county law enforcement policy that was specifically and intentionally designed to...

Like many Americans, venerable news anchor Brit Hume finds some of the recent revelations about the ongoing Mueller investigation into Russia and Trump to be very unsettling. Hume was an early critic of James Comey, and now he levels some very harsh doubts about the integrity of Robert Mueller. VIDEO

Anyone else catch this?

Chris Wallace is such a discussing P.O.S. when he attempts to appear as a tough journalist...when he is clearly just another liberal attack animal going after anyone who supports Trump...what a dirt bag.....

Epic TV. During an interview about North Carolina voting on Fox TV, a local pundit was explaining how voting for Evan McMullin was futile because it doesn’t count. As soon as this aspect was being pointed out #NeverTrump Brit Hume became enraged because such an expose’ transparently works against the objectives of the Rupert Murdoch Fox Media enterprise. Unfortunately for Brit, the camera caught his outrage. Watch Hume angrily shouting “wrap him, WRAP HIM” as the discussion unfolded:

Conservative commentator Tucker Carlson is getting his own nightly program on Fox News Channel starting Nov. 14, according to people familiar with the plan. Carlson is taking over the 7 p.m. ET time period long held by Greta Van Susteren, who left earlier this year over a contract dispute. Fox News senior political analyst Brit Hume has filled in since Van Susteren’s departure in early September.

New data out today from YouGov BrandIndex suggests that Fox News is losing its luster in the eyes of Republican consumers -- who, it must be noted, pretty much despise CNN and MSNBC more than ever. It also must be noted that Fox News continues to dominate cable news ratings. Fox News anchor Megyn Kelly. Fox News anchor Megyn Kelly.

Much wrong with the big spending bill that passed today, but lifting the oil export ban is a big deal, which is why Obama threatened veto.

..Levin first singled out Washington Post columnist and Fox News contributor Charles Krauthammer for criticizing Republican presidential front runner Donald Trump for switching his positions. Levin pointed out that Krauthammer was a speechwriter for former Vice President Walter Mondale, who ran against Ronald Reagan as the Democratic vice-presidential nominee in 1980 and as the Democratic presidential nominee in 1984. "I'l tell you something else, I'm sick and tired of his intelligence being questioned by the stupidos on cable TV," Levin said. "He's an incredibly brilliant man, as are many of the people on that stage, incredibly. We got to sit...

<p>Ugh. Brit Hume couldn't wait to pounce on Ted Cruz at the end of the debate when he was talking about how he has fought for the American people: Brit Hume doesn't get it. It’s not always about winning. I mean that would be awesome, yeah? It's about standing up for conservative principles and fighting for this country as it is barreling towards economic catastrophe.</p>

Unlike any [candidate] I’ve ever seen. … I was up in Maine for the month of August, and I swore off television, and I had it on for a couple nights where Trump was giving news conferences or making a speech– and I thought, ‘well, I’ll watch a little of this’– I was transfixed! You can’t take your eyes off the guy! He is the most entertaining political candidate, by far, I’ve ever seen!

In response to the first undercover video from the Center for Medical Progress’s investigation into Planned Parenthood’s sale of aborted babies’ body parts, Fox News’ senior political analyst delivered Monday what the Gospel Coalition’s Justin Taylor calls “the best 1.5 minute commentary on abortion ever heard on network news.” In it, Brit Hume says the video exposed “the especially brutal nature of abortion” behind the industry’s “veil of antiseptic tidiness.” After lamenting the deaths of 55 million preborn babies since Roe v. Wade, Hume expressed hope that America would someday look upon its past of legal abortion-on-demand “with horror and...

Get this: Conservatives give better graduation speeches than their more liberal-minded counterparts. After reviewing two commencement-speech anthologies - "The World is Waiting For You," which features 18 speeches by liberals, and "Remembering Who We Are," which showcases 30 conservative speeches - Washington Post blogger and book critic Carlos Lozada gives five reasons why conservatives do a better job. First, he writes, conservatives are more likely to speak to graduates as individuals, rather than as members of a movement or generation. Whereas liberal speakers say things such as, "you are the first generation that ...," conservative speakers are more likely to...

Brit Hume shares revealing insight and reaction to Netanyahu's speech and the many flaws in Obama's approach with Iran.

Fox News Channel contributor Brit Hume shared the news that Facebook had disabled his account in a Twitter post Thursday, adding only that he was informed the action was due to “using a false identity.” Though he sought a response from the social media site responsible, his post also prompted others to weigh in with possible reasons for the block.

There are some words that, as a writer, I’ve always wanted to use. One of those words is “cadaverous,” which I think is just a lovely, almost Dickensian word. Having attended last night’s delightful PRI Gala dinner, I finally have that chance. But let me start at the beginning….I don’t usually attend galas. Indeed, I don’t ever attend galas, since I am almost pathologically cheap and, no matter how much I admire the speaker or expect the company to be delightful, I simply cannot make myself pay several hundred dollars for a dinner and speech. Add to that the fact...

From this topic - "What did Kerry just say?" - henkster states " Sure, he likes big government, and that’s no surprise. I don’t read too much into this. Consider the source. Kerry is just rambling because he likes to sound like he’s saying something profound. It’s more proof, as if any were needed, that he’s an idiot. The purpose of this conference is to convince African leaders of that, if they didn’t already know. A couple days ago on BORs program, Brit Hume makes the statement that Kerry is a smart guy. I hear this all the time from...

exas Gov. Rick Perry slammed President Barack Obama on Fox News Sunday, once again demanding the National Guard, and called on Obama to stop the blame game and get up and lead. Host Brit Hume asked Perry to explain why he wants the National Guard sent to Texas, inquiring skeptically, “What exactly would National Guardsman and women do on the border?” Perry explained that the National Guard acts as a front-line deterrent for illegal immigrants, and is critically important now, because most border patrol agents are stuck taking care of the illegal immigrant children. “The president was not even aware...

VIDEO AT LINK On Fox News Channel’s “Special Report” on Tuesday, network senior political analyst Brit Hume concurred with a statement Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) had made earlier in the day about the failings of the President Barack Obama’s foreign policy under the direction of Secretary of State John Kerry. According to Hume, much of what the Obama administration had aimed to accomplish was reliant on Russia, which as of now has a relationship with the United States in disrepair.
