1. Question: How do we know that Obama, VP Biden, Bush 43, VP Cheney did not remove government documents, classified or otherwise, in violation of federal law?— Mark R. Levin (@marklevinshow) August 12, 20222. The National Archives statement today address the documents that they acquired, but was there any kind of search of the homes of any of these former top officials? Indeed, has there been any kind of substantive inquiry?— Mark R. Levin (@marklevinshow) August 12, 20223. How about former attorneys general, former CIA directors & the like? Furthermore, have any of these officials violated federal law while in...

Days before the Capitol riot provoked a years-long effort to impeach, prosecute, and politically malign former President Donald Trump, Wyoming Rep. Liz Cheney coordinated efforts to deter the very actions she now claims haunt the former president. Cheney has blamed Trump for not ordering the National Guard to defend the Capitol complex, even though multiple sources confirm that he authorized their deployment days prior to the Jan. 6 rally at the White House and riot at the Capitol. Security officials in charge of the Capitol declined to call up troops to protect it, government records show. Yet Cheney herself seems...

The Connecticut mom who strangled her three children before hanging herself left a suicide note for her husband that read, “Sorry, Pedro, I take my kids with me,” his cousin told The Post on Friday. Sonia Loja, 36, had long battled depression and had been crying for days over the shuttering of her illegal child-care business before Wednesday’s horrific murder-suicide in Danbury, said relative Digna Naulaguari, 47. Loja’s devastated husband, Pedro Panjon, saw no signs of the coming violence and only realized that something might be amiss when he got home from work that day — and none of the...

Rep. Cori Bush (D-MO), one of the remaining Democrats advocating to defund the police, has spent $393,417.67 in campaign cash for private security this election cycle, according to Federal Election Commission (FEC) filings. During the 2022 quarter-two election cycle, Bush spent $89,265.67 on her private security detail. Her nearly $90,000 on campaign security is more than $50,000 higher than her campaign’s second-largest expenditure for fundraising services, Fox News reported. Close to two-thirds of her second quarter security spending went to a security agency that frequently posts against gun control laws, while the rest went to two individuals who share an...

Former Attorney General Alberto Gonzales (R) said the conservative members of the Supreme Court may look to review other current federally protected rights, such as access to contraception and same-sex relations, following the court’s decision to overturn Roe v. Wade Gonzales, who led the Justice Department under former President George W. Bush, told CNN’s Kate Bolduan on Tuesday that Justice Samuel Alito’s majority opinion in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization, which overturned the constitutional right to abortion established in Roe, specifically emphasizes that the court’s decision should not be taken to put other rights at risk. But Gonzales said...

Recently the Democrats have coined the phrase “election deniers” to smear those who worry about our lack of ballot security, as reflected in the 2020 election, by associating them with Holocaust deniers and other cranks. But who are the real election deniers? The Democrats haven’t conceded that a Republican was legitimately elected president since George H. W. Bush carried 40 states in 1988. The RNC put together this 12-minute video of Democratic Party election deniers. It is painful in some respects, but a useful reminder of how unprincipled the Democrats have been for a long time, and how hypocritical they...

At the “March for Our Lives” gun control protest in Washington D.C. on Saturday, Rep. Cori Bush (D-MO) said the shooter who killed ten people at a grocery store in Buffalo, New York, “was indoctrinated by Tucker Carlson and Fox News” During her speech, Bush briefly touched on her experience listening to survivors and family members of those from the Uvalde school shooting in Texas.

The latest ISIS refugee terror plot shows why we need a travel ban right now.. Shihab Ahmed Shihab Shihab, an Iraqi Muslim, entered the country using a tourist visa. Seven months later, just before his visa was about to expire, he asked for political asylum and planned to bring his entire family into the United States. A year later the Iraqi refugee was arrested as part of a plot to kill George W. Bush for ISIS. According to a confidential informant, Shihab was actually Abu Ahmed, who boasted of being related to Al-Baghdadi, the deceased Caliph of ISIS, and claimed...

Campus Watch Research Originally published under the title "Georgetown University Whitewashes Islamism and Smears the West (again)." [Caption] Erdoan Shipoli (l) and John Esposito (r) of Georgetown Univ. use their positions to whitewash Islamism and attack Western civilization. Former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice was former President George W. Bush's "teacher at Yale," stated Erdoan A. Shipoli at an April 27 Georgetown University webinar. While Rice was indeed a child prodigy on the piano, her intellectual prowess was not quite so grand as to land her an Ivy League teaching position as an adolescent. Born in 1954, she was only...

Attorney General primary candidate George P. Bush, the son of former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush (R) and the nephew of former President George W. Bush (R), was rejected by Republican voters in all but five of Texas’s 254 counties. On Tuesday, 68 percent of Republicans voted to re-elect Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton, who has been a fierce opponent of illegal immigration and the monopolistic business practices of giant tech corporations. Bush received 32 percent of votes cast, losing to Paxton in all but five of Texas’s 254 counties. The only counties Bush won were Loving County, where fewer than...

And in the wake of his defeat, Bush’s political future and the survival of his family’s brand are very much in doubt. "History has shown there can be second acts in American politics, so I wouldn’t say never. But I think that he is politically greatly diminished from the results last night," longtime Texas based GOP strategist Brendan Steinhauser told Fox News. And he predicted that in the short term "I think it’s more likely he goes into the private sector." Matt Mackowiak, a veteran Austin, Texas-based Republican consultant and chair of Travis County GOP, said, "You can never count...

A man affiliated with ISIS is under arrest for his participation in an alleged plot to assassinate former President George W. Bush. "An Iraqi citizen living in Columbus, Ohio, has been charged federally with an immigration crime and with aiding and abetting a plot to murder former United States President George W. Bush," the Justice Department said in a press release on Tuesday. The statement added that Shihab originally came to the United States in September 2020 on a visitor visa and filed for asylum in March 2021 which is pending review.

We've seen a few recent stories where Normals hit back against The Radical Left and the stuffy Vichy Republicans would be quick to sniff that "It's not who we are!": and condemn the Normals that they claim to represent. To quickly recap some fronts in this battle, the 47 year old Mistress of Doxxing, Taylor Lorenz, has had friends and family harassed, Candace Owens has been knocking on the door of leaders of the BLM (No, not Burn Loot Murder - it's now Build Large Mansions), while a few members of the Conservasphere have turned XiNN's Brian Stelter into a...

Greg Kelly rips George W. Bush and the 'Republican establishment' in wake of the 43rd president's gaffe about "Iraq - I mean Ukraine."

Former U.S. President George W. Bush: "The decision of one man to launch a wholly unjustified and brutal invasion of Iraq. I mean, of the Ukraine"

Paxton: "I'm pretty sure that the Bush dynasty ends here" Bannon: Kemp Flew out from Georgia, Carl Rove and President Bush was there at an event. Former President Bush did a fund raiser for him (George P. Bush). You've got Chris Christi--??.... Paxton: "Can I say this? I think Texans are pretty smart and figure that Bush is out."

WHEN 46 STARTS TO EQUAL 41 — It won’t be long before “George Herbert Walker Biden” creeps into the vernacular, given the parallels surfacing between the 41st president and the 46th. Like the first President Bush, President Joe Biden is viewed by much of Washington as fundamentally decent — good at democracy and foreign policy but bamboozled by an economy that, apart from inflation, he keeps suggesting is fine. People didn’t feel that way in 1992, and despite job growth and low unemployment, they certainly don’t now. The price for Bush was a second term. Looking back 20 years, Time...

George W. Bush held a video call on Thursday. During the call, Bush called Ukrainian President Zelenskyy the “Winston Churchill of our times.” What an embarrassment. George W. Bush is famous for his trust in Putin, saying, “I looked the man in the eye. I found him to be very straightforward and trustworthy and we had a very good dialogue. I was able to get a sense of his soul.” Guess he was wrong about that, too?

Former President George W. Bush called Ukraine leader Volodymyr Zelensky “the Winston Churchill of our time” after the two spoke in a videoconference Thursday morning. Bush posted two images of the meeting on Instagram tagged with a location of the George W. Bush Presidential Center in Texas, showing the 43rd president smiling while seated at a conference table. The chat came as Ukraine remains under siege by Russian President Vladimir Putin’s invading forces. “I was honored to spend a few minutes talking with President Zelenskyy – the Winston Churchill of our time – this morning,” Bush said in the post....
