BREAKING: GOP #Gangof20 just rebuked Ted Cruz's #GangOf11 as a publicity stunt. This is their statement, “All challenges through recounts and appeals have been exhausted” Included in that list are Lindsey Graham, Mike Lee, Mitch McConnell, Rob Portman, and others.

“We repent on behalf of our country for the sins of arrogance, for the sins of sexual deviancy, for the sins that have led us to the place where we are today,” one man earnestly prayed as he stood beneath the Capitol dome.

On Monday, Goucher College journalism professor and longtime Baltimore Sun media critic David Zurawik accused President Donald Trump of using a dictator tactic — telling so many lies as to exhaust the free press into silence. "He says something that’s really offensive about immigrants, and then Tucker Carlson says immigration makes us a dirtier country," Zurawik said. "That is really destructive to American life." He urged journalists to fight back. "We have to denounce it, but every time we do that, every time we chase that down, he is setting the agenda for what we cover, and none of us,...

Take a moment to watch this report. It is done very well. Lots of her own emails shown and discussed. At the very least it is easy to conclude she has serious problems, her own staff thinks and knows so. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H8W0AeXkNU0

It may not be dead, but it looks mighty worn out. Canaries are not very formidable birds, but they have their uses. For instance, coal miners learned over a century ago that when canaries gag and drop dead at the bottom of the cage, it’s a sign that maybe there’s something wrong with the air in the mine.

All anyone in America who cares about politics was talking about this week was the searing encounter that captured, in a way that hasn't been done before, the essence of the political moment we're in. When 2010 is reviewed, it will be the clip the producers pick to illustrate the president's disastrous fall. It is Monday, Sept. 20, the middle of the day, in Washington. CNBC is holding a town hall for the president. A woman stands—handsome, dignified, black, a person with presence. She looks as if she may be what she turns out to be, an Obama supporter who...

Ok, this woman is driving me crazy. I can't take it anymore...lol So, do I just stop the communication, this is becoming exhausting right now to me. But, I feel I need to answer this. We have been going back and forth on health care bill and Obama's over spending, the lefts attempt to shut up the tea party. You get the idea. Here's her last email to me. The one gov. program I have personally seen work better and more efficiently (since Obama got in) Is the VA. Since I've know Mike(is a vet on disability) I've seen him...

LOS ANGELES (AFP) - Exhausted firefighters raced to contain hundreds of wildfires raging across California as forecasters warned on Sunday that a looming heatwave was set to deliver drier, hotter conditions. More than 330 wildfires blazed across the state, as firefighters focused their efforts near the tourist haven of Big Sur and the town of Goleta, near Santa Barbara, 103 miles (165 kilometers) north of Los Angeles.
