SNIP Spokespeople for Bill Clinton, George W. Bush, Barack Obama and Joe Biden all said the leaders have not spoken to Trump about the conflict, let alone told him they wish they would have started a war against Tehran or killed Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei. Trump first dropped the chatty bombshell Monday at a press event during a lunch for board members of the Kennedy Center. “I’ve spoken to a certain president ... a past president, former president. He said: ‘I wish I did it. I wish I did.’ ” Trump said. Trump repeated the claim later during another White...

Twice on Monday, President Donald Trump said he’d wrangled a confession of sorts from an Oval Office predecessor who he said had expressed regret in a private conversation about not attacking Iran the way Trump has been doing for more than two weeks. But there’s just a little problem: Representatives for the four living former presidents — three Democrats and one Republican — said none have been in touch with Trump recently.

Ohio State University is investigating after President Walter “Ted” Carter Jr. resigned abruptly over the weekend following the disclosure of “an inappropriate relationship” with a woman seeking public resources for her personal business, the university said Monday. Carter, 66, said in a statement that he had resigned voluntarily after informing the university’s board of trustees of his error. He did not elaborate on the nature of the relationship and mentioned that he was leaving the post along with his wife, Lynda. “For personal reasons, I have made the difficult decision to resign from my role as president of The Ohio...

I’m going to start out this morning by quoting a piece I wrote back in 2007:Yesterday, I made a comment with regards to the culpability of Jimmy Carter as regards our current troubles with Iran. As you may imagine I managed to get some email commentary on that charge. For the most part, the mails chided me for rendering such a verdict against so great a president. Apparently, the people writing, have learned nothing from reading this site, over the years. In any event, Michael Evans, in an OP/Ed piece in the Jerusalem Post, nails it down quite nicely ...The...

Eagles defensive tackle Jalen Carter will not be suspended for this week’s game against the Chiefs after spitting on Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott on Thursday night. But he hasn’t avoided losing a paycheck, or having a suspension placed in his permanent record. As PFT predicted, Carter was fined $57,222 for the incident, which got him ejected before he played a single snap of the season opener. Carter’s fine is his full weekly paycheck, and he didn’t play at all in the game, so the NFL is terming Carter’s punishment a one-game unpaid suspension — a suspension that has already been...

Jalen Carter’s first game of the Eagles’ new season was over before the first defensive snap. With Philadelphia trainers addressing an injury after the opening kickoff, Carter, the star defensive lineman, walked up to Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott and appeared to spit on his chest. Carter received an unsportsmanlike penalty and was ejected just six seconds into the game, with Eagles chief security officer Dom “Big Dom” DiSandro escorting him off the field as the NBC broadcast reacted in shock at how the first game of the NFL season began.

Reams have been written about the latest revelations in the Russian collusion hoax that so hamstrung President Trump’s first term. I will summarize below the most important revelations. It’s clear the Administration is taking its time to reveal the investigation’s conclusions for maximum impact -- an impact that I, like Scott Adams, believe will result in arrests of a number of people who pulled off this fraud. But first I want to discuss something which has not received the kind of attention it deserves -- the death of the legal consequences for disparate outcomes and credentialism. The Death of Disparate...

“America can’t do a damn thing against us,” Ayatollah Khomeini bragged while holding our hostages. The Carter administration had undermined the Shah’s government in favor of the Islamists who seized power and then prevented the embassy’s Marine guards from defending the facility and the people inside against the Muslim ‘student’ groups who claimed to be coming in peace.The “peaceful” student activists took over our embassy and held our people hostage.Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei taunted President Trump with the same slogan in June after being asked to give up Iran’s nuclear weapons program. “Our response to the US nonsense is clear:...

Sowell's top 10 worst US presidents.I think he's nailed to top five. 1. bammy 2. LBJ 3. FDR 4. Wilson 5. Carter

America is at a crossroads: Will we cave to the radical left’s vision for our nation, where men win trophies in women’s sports and our border is wide open for illegal aliens, or do we stand with President Trump in his mission to Make America Great Again through America First policies? I know where I stand, and I’m running for Senate to fight for the future of our nation where taxpayers, not criminals and foreign governments, are put first. The stench of the Biden-Harris administration’s lawlessness and economic devastation still lingers in the air today. President Trump inherited a mess...

Wonder Woman star Lynda Carter, the actress who once said one month to celebrate the LGBTQIA2S+ community “felt so short,” is now saying Diversity, Equity, Inclusion (DEI) is “fundamentally American.” “‘DEI’ is not a bad word. Diversity, equity, and inclusion are fundamentally American – a reflection of who we actually are,” Carter said on Bluesky. “After centuries of erasure, we’ve seen progress in representation in recent years, and I don’t want to go back.” DEI, a whitewashed rebrand of affirmative action — race, sex, gender identity, sexual preference, and religion-based affirmative action in college admissions was struck down by the...

Regarding the recently released Russiagate files. Again, emphasizing that process matters, let me explain how and why we are being purposefully misled, even with Trump ‘allies’ in control of various govt agencies (silos). Using the reference of the James Wolfe storyline, let me outline how process matters and how you can tell when the process is being used to coverup corrupt activity in Washington DC. Former Senate Intelligence Community Security Chief, James Wolfe, leaked the Carter Page FISA application to journalist Ali Watkins. We know from the DOJ indictment of James Wolfe [SEE HERE], a very specific set of evidence...

John Kerry's Fellow TravellersA 5-part series exposing John Kerry's Communist connections.Part 4: Subversion in the Senate: Kerry's Communist ConstituencyBy Fedora *NOTE: The term "fellow traveller" as used in this article series refers to someone who is not a member of the Communist Party (CP) but regularly engages in actions which advance the Party's program. Some apparent fellow travellers may actually be "concealed party members": members of the CP who conceal their membership. Which of these classifications is applicable to the Kerrys is a question this series leaves unresolved. This series does not argue for any direct evidence of Richard or...

Shameful

President Trump campaigned on reforming the broken and corrupt WOKE Department of Education, which has been infiltrated by radical zealots and Marxists. They destroyed the greatest education system in the world. Make Education Great Again. Once a beacon for education the world over, we can thank the Democrats that we now rank on the bottom of math and sciences in industrialized nations. But not to worry, our sexualized tots will be experimenting with transgenderism and Gd knows what. 23.1 percent of Californians over age 15 cannot read this sentence.

The late Jimmy Carter didn’t come up spontaneously with the idea of giving away the Panama Canal, which America spent blood and gold on and which is an essential part of its national security. Instead, he had Robert A. Pastor, a communist, whispering in his ear. A globalist who desired to merge incrementally the U.S., Mexico, and Canada into a “North American Union” (NAU) along the model of the European Union, Pastor’s intellectual development was rooted in Marxism. Pastor played an instrumental role in the Carter administration’s decision to relinquish control of the Panama Canal. ... In what appears to...

Comedian Dave Chappelle called for President-elect Trump to “do better” in his second term and praised former President Jimmy Carter during his “Saturday Night Live” monologue. In his opening monologue, Chappelle braced the country for the second Trump term. He called on the president-elect to be a better politician than his first term because the world was counting on him. “To Donald Trump, I know you watch the show,” Chappelle said. “Remember, whether people voted for you or not, they’re all counting on you. Whether they like you or not, they’re all counting on you. The whole world is counting...

Former Vice President Mike Pence said he congratulated President-elect Trump on his upcoming return to the White House when the two shared a brief greeting at former President Jimmy Carter’s funeral service on Thursday. “He greeted me when he came down the aisle. I stood up, extended my hand. He shook my hand. I said, ‘Congratulations, Mr. President,’ and he said, ‘Thanks, Mike,’” Pence said in an interview with Christianity Today. The funeral in Washington, D.C., was the first time Trump and Pence were in the same room since the end of their administration in January 2021. When Pence and...
