  • After voting to certify Biden victory, Iowa GOP congressional delegation backing Grassley re-election, ignoring Carlin challenge

    All five GOP members of Iowa’s congressional delegation voted to certify President Joe Biden’s election on Jan. 6. They actually made history and Iowa unique that day. Only two states have multiple Republicans in the U.S. House of Representatives with none voting to object — Iowa and Washington. Washington, of course, doesn’t have any GOP senators, whereas Grassley and Ernst are both Republicans. This means Iowa is the only state in the entire country with multiple Republicans in the U.S. House and U.S. Senate to not have one single congressional representative object to the 2020 Presidential Election. Carlin is actually...

    House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said Friday the U.S.-Israel relationship can withstand the “weakness” of President Donald Trump and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who shook diplomatic norms this week in barring two members of Congress from visiting the country. Pelosi told The Associated Press that the “weakness of Netanyahu and the weakness of Donald Trump combined” into a policy that’s “a no.” “We have a deep relationship and long-standing relationship with Israel that can withstand Donald Trump and Benjamin Netanyahu,” Pelosi said. “We cannot let their weaknesses stand in the way of our ongoing relationship.” She said the U.S. commitment to...

    Since the late 1970s, the Dallas Cowboys have been known as “America’s Team.” In light of recent Trump White House statements, however, Dallas might want to consider handing that title over to the Philadelphia Eagles. "The Philadelphia Eagles are unable to come to the White House with their full team to be celebrated tomorrow,” the White House said in an eleventh-hour statement issued on Monday after learning that only two or three players, owner Jeff Lurie, and mascot Swoop were able (or willing) to meet President Donald Trump, as has become customary for championship teams in the U.S. “They disagree...

Last night, Jahan Wilcox responded quickly to Thom Tillis’s victory in North Carolina by declaring that next would be to defeat Matt Bevin, the Republican candidate in Kentucky, who Wilcox called a “fraud.”

    July 12 - The New York Times is only slightly to the right of Pravda in the eyes of the Bush White House, but ideological differences fade when there’s a principle at stake. Times reporter Judith Miller is in jail for refusing to reveal who she talked to for a story she never wrote, a stand that is both heroic and bizarre. [ puke!!! ] Miller is protecting whoever leaked the identity of undercover CIA agent Valerie Plame to columnist Robert Novak from getting fingered by the special prosecutor looking into the matter. She’s not shielding sources who are...
