"Dude, I was running the military," Miller said. "There was no coup." It was one of the biggest mysteries of the Capitol Riots: How could former President Donald J. Trump have possibly be carrying out a "coup" on the capitol without the aid of the U.S. military and only with the help of a bunch of unarmed extremists? Former Secretary of Defense Christopher Miller recently joined podcaster Tim Pool and addressed this very topic. Christopher C. Miller served as the Acting Secretary of Defense from Nov. 9, 2020 until Jan. 20, 2021. His remarks are well worth reporting. "You brought...

The White House and Republicans pushed back on Monday at Sen. Chuck Schumer’s proposal to call witnesses - including former national security adviser John Bolton and acting chief of staff Mick Mulvaney - to testify at President Trump’s expected impeachment trial in the Senate. “Let us hope that fairness will prevail” a laughable quote from @SenSchumer this AM….after the dems release an ‘impeachment report’ in the middle of the night,” White House press secretary Stephanie Grisham wrote on Twitter. “Thankfully the people of this country continue to see the partisan sham that this is.” Sen. John Cornyn (R-Texas), who would...

Ted Cruz is making all the right enemies, and they are out for him often and early. For Marco Rubio the meme is WATER, for Cruz it’s NASTY. The title of this NY Times article originally was Ted Cruz Runs Counter To The Senate’s Courtly Ways, but the title was changed to Texas Senator Goes on Attack and Raises Bipartisan Hackles at some point after publication (the original url continues). Another NY Times Op-Ed is more blunt, The G.O.P.’s Nasty Newcomer. It’s all part of the killing the baby in the cradle strategy at which The NY Times and other...

On paper, a president with Barack Obama’s record has no shot at re-election. The Democrats, knowing that Obama’s record is indefensible, decided that their only viable strategy is one of distraction. Every day, they have to come up with something to distract voters from Obama’s record. Michelle Malkin called it the Squirrel Strategy–”look, over there–a squirrel!” Today’s squirrel is a decades-old divorce in which Mitt Romney was deposed. **snip**Meanwhile, there is a great deal of real news if the press would choose to cover it. It was reported today that Iran has reached a milestone in its effort to produce...

The Joe McGinniss Sarah Palin book The Rogue is the left's latest hate letter to God-fearing patriotic Americans. Make no mistake about it, folks. The McGinniss attack along with the other numerous attacks on Sarah Palin are really about attacking you -- mainstream Americans with traditional values. Since her extraordinary, upbeat VP nominee acceptance speech in 2008, I have wondered. What did Palin specifically say to prompt such immediate visceral hatred from the left? I have come to realize the answer is her celebration of God, family, and country. How dare Palin praise traditional marriage, motherhood, Christianity, and American exceptionalism,...
