President Joe Biden wraps up his first full month in office this week having set a new record of speed and aggression in pursuing a partisan, hard-left agenda. At the Democrats’ virtual convention in 2020, former Ohio Republican Gov. John Kasich endorsed former Vice President Joe Biden, branding the Democratic nominee a “unifier” with a commitment to bring the country together. “America is at a crossroads,” Kasich said, while standing at a physical crossroads for the taped address. The message of unity, decency, and bipartisanship became the defining theme of anti-Trump Republicans who promoted the most radical pair of candidates...

Former President George W. Bush plans to lend his support to Rep. Liz Cheney (WY-R) during a Saturday call with her father Dick Cheney, his former vice president. Freddy Ford, Bush's chief of staff, said that the former president will thank the top House Republican for her service - just weeks after her vote to impeach then-President Donald Trump. But he wouldn't be drawn on whether he would back her ahead of a tough 2022 Primary.

Liz Cheney's backlash sends a warning signal to GOP senators weighing impeachment, but the issues run far deeper.CHEYENNE, Wyo — Hundreds flocked the Wyoming State Capitol Tuesday, kicking off a campaign to oust Republican Rep. Liz Cheney after the state’s at-large representative joined Democrats in another effort to impeach President Donald Trump. Two weeks ago, Cheney triggered the backlash escalating to a protest in her own state when she declared she would be casting her vote for House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s second rushed impeachment featuring an article passed without a single hearing, significant deliberation, or witness. The vote ignited a...

“George Bush said to me today, he said, ‘You know, you’re the savior, because had we not nominated Joe Biden, we would not be having this transfer of power today,’ " Clyburn said. “He said to me, ‘Joe Biden was the only one who could have defeated the incumbent president.’”

"The spiritual advisor for both Barack Obama and George W. Bush during their time as President has been sentenced to six years for his role in a multi-million dollar investment fraud scheme."

Trump leaves his party in better shape than his previous two predecessors left theirs, but the GOP is still at war with itself.Amid the fallout from a stunning Republican loss in Georgia that effectively hands control of the U.S. Senate to Democrats, we’re already seeing commentary and think pieces about how this means the end of Trumpism, that Donald Trump killed the GOP, that Trump sabotaged his own party, and so on.Not so fast. Yes, President Trump will leave office having served only one term, but consider where he will leave his party relative to his previous two predecessors. When...

This is crazy. it will be killed on arrival. Why are smart people advancing this notion? Let it go.

President-elect Joe Biden said in a new interview that he wants to hike tax rates back to their highest levels under the George W. Bush administration — undercutting his promise not to increase taxes for Americans earning less than $400,000 a year. Biden outlined his economic platform in an interview with New York Times’ columnist Thomas Friedman, and said he would ensure long-term growth by ensuring “everybody pays their fair share, for God’s sake.”

A few days ago, I wrote on the 5-4 decision by the Supreme Court to strike down Andrew Cuomo’s clearly unconstitutional COVID regulations. They were clearly unconstitutional because they specifically and unfairly targeted religious institutions. Cuomo didn’t even really attempt to make a salient case, as one simply doesn’t exist. His rules have been arbitrary and discriminatory, worrying more about Jewish kids going to school than mass protests in the street. Neil Gorsuch eviscerated Cuomo in response (see Neil Gorsuch Murders Andrew Cuomo, Twitter Murders John Roberts) Justice Gorsuch finally puts words to the thoughts of many. #SCOTUS pic.twitter.com/sXdvtkDm7x —...

How permanent an impact a Joe Biden presidency will have comes down almost entirely to what happens in the state of Georgia on Jan. 5, 2021.There’s no doubt a Joe Biden administration is going to have a massive impact on the United States. How permanent an impact it will have, however, comes down almost entirely to what happens in the state of Georgia on Jan. 5, 2021. Like all modern presidents, President Barack Obama used the power of the executive to his benefit, signing orders that ranged from granting amnesty to illegal immigrants to joining the Paris climate agreement. President...

During a protest in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, a supporter of President Trump called former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush (R) “a criminal” with the “Bush crime family” after he conceded the presidential election to Democrat Joe Biden and Sen. Kamala Harris (D-CA). As multiple establishment media outlets called the election for the former vice president, though Trump is contesting a series of purported irregularities and potential fraud, Bush congratulated Biden. “Congratulations to President-elect Biden,” Bush said in a statement. “I have prayed for our President most of my adult life. I will be praying for you and your success. Now is...

To state an obvious thing media will intentionally hide: If George W. Bush had lifted a single finger to help out 2020 GOPers running for House, Senate, Presidency, to say nothing of doing anything helpful since 2016, his words might have some value with 71 million GOP voters.— Mollie (@MZHemingway) November 8, 2020 1. Well said, Mollie. Turns out when it comes to politics the Bush family is focused on the Bush family. And good job, Cindy McCain in Arizona. And hat tip to Tom Ridge in PA. All backstabbing RINOs. https://t.co/cSwaXFQzyp— Mark R. Levin (@marklevinshow) November 9, 2020...

First tonight a quick analysis of the political situation. There are still legal challenges and still vote counts underway in a number of states with recounts set to begin in others in the coming days. States have not certified the Presidential candidate who won yet. This weekend in the Newsdump period specifically late Saturday morning voted were produced in Pennsylvania to lead both the mainstream media and former Vice-President Joe Biden to proclaim victory with foreign leaders nd former presidents reinforcing the notion along with corporate CEO's... Former Republican President George W. Bush offer his congratulations to Joe Biden and...

1. Finally we hear from George W. Bush. He congratulated Biden before canvassing, recounts, and litigation are completed in states where the vote was extremely close.— Mark R. Levin (@marklevinshow) November 8, 2020 2. In 2000, he refused to concede while all this was going on in a single state for 37 days. So the leftwing media pat him on the head and thank him. Truly appalling. Back to painting, George. https://t.co/Z9wO6mHOJ3— Mark R. Levin (@marklevinshow) November 8, 2020

George W. Bush congratulated Joe Biden on his election victory Sunday - and delivered an unmistakable message to Donald Trump that he must now concede.

Failed Republican presidential candidate and former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush (R) congratulated Joe Biden on Saturday for reportedly winning the 2020 presidential election after establishment media outlets called the election in favor of the former vice president. “Congratulations to President-elect Biden. I have prayed for our President most of my adult life. I will be praying for you and your success,” Bush wrote. “Now is the time to heal deep wounds. Many are counting on you to lead the way.”

Staffers who worked for President George W. Bush are going all in for Democrat presidential candidate Joe Biden in hopes of returning the White House back to one of their globalist allies in the political class. The group, 43 Alumni for Biden, has released two campaign ads to prop up the former vice president’s campaign. One of the ads is geared towards Hispanic Americans and claims President Trump is an “existential threat” to their community. The latest ad suggests the Bush staffers “understand the character, the experience, and frankly the empathy required for leadership because we’ve seen it first hand...

George w. bush doesn’t like Donald Trump. He doesn’t like how Trump is behaving as president. He clearly doesn’t like the division in the country Trump has fostered. He knows American democracy is under threat. He has tried to be reassuring, telling people that America has survived rough times before—a way of using insistent optimism to diplomatically acknowledge the rough time the nation is going through now.

Former Republican National Committee (RNC) Chairman Marc Racicot said this week that he would that he will not vote for President Trump in November. “I regret that I will cause consternation perhaps in some corners, but even as a Republican, I will not be supporting Donald Trump for president, and I will not be voting for him,” Racicot, who is also a former Republican governor of Montana, said during a Tuesday interview on Yellowstone Public Radio. “That means I will be voting for Joe Biden for president.” Racicot did not provide details about why he was choosing to endorse the...

---SNIP--- I actually consider it a point of personal pride that I’m recognized for being among the first Republicans to reject Donald Trump. It was way back in December 2015. I told NBC’s Chuck Todd that day that I could never support Trump. I said then that he was an embarrassment to the Republican Party and our country. I said he belittles, demeans, and ridicules people who disagree with him, and that I’ve never thought that loud, obnoxious, and simpleminded solutions to complex problems are the kind of qualities we want in a president. I believe that earned me my...
