Will the United States soon enter a second civil war? Polling data from Georgetown University shows that an overwhelming majority of Americans believe a civil war is coming down the pike — and most people aren’t actually willing to make the changes necessary to stop it. Across the board, Americans are doubling down on their political values and are refusing to compromise on the issues tearing the country apart.

Washington (CNN)The White House is preparing a draft proclamation for President Donald Trump to declare a national emergency along the southern border and has identified more than $7 billion in potential funds for his signature border wall should he go that route, according to internal documents reviewed by CNN. Trump has not ruled out using his authority to declare a national emergency and direct the Defense Department to construct a border wall as Congress and the White House fight over a deal to end the government shutdown.

Working on Christmas Eve and through the government shutdown over border wall funding, President Donald Trump tweeted he had authorized the construction of a 115-mile stretch of border wall in Texas. "I am in the Oval Office & just gave out a 115 mile long contract for another large section of the Wall in Texas," President Trump tweeted Monday night. "We are already building and renovating many miles of Wall, some complete. "Democrats must end Shutdown and finish funding. Billions of Dollars, & lives, will be saved!"

READ MORE Pipe Bombs Sent To Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama And CNN Under Investigation MSNBC anchor Chris Hayes noted that an image of the bomb, which was shared by CNN itself, showed a black patch on the cylindrical device.

RUSH: By the way, Paul Sperry – who writes for the New York Post and other places — has a tweet, “The pipe bombs might as well have had ‘ACME’ stamped on them.” Those are the things the Coyote used to try to kill the Roadrunner. These bombs were “[t]otally telegraphed by packaging (excessive postage, taping), amateur packing of gun powder (bad end caps, etc).” In other words, he says whoever did this wanted them noticed, wanted these bombs noticed and caught, never intended ’em to explode or go off. Paul Sperry. BREAK TRANSCRIPT RUSH: This is Mike in Logan,...

In the 2012 presidential election, I recall a close friend who is a successful businessman in his own right, telling me the reason we had to support Mitt Romney was because he was a successful businessman. My friend insisted that we needed a businessman as president if we were to see the economy turn around. I agreed with my friend’s assessment, but I disagreed with his belief that Romney was that businessman. The difference between Obama and Romney can be reduced to Obama’s alleged immoral behavior in the seamy underbelly of Chicago’s bathhouses. President Trump, however, is a different story....

The San Francisco 49ers have fired offensive coordinator Jimmy Raye, according to a league source.

The 49ers were considered a favorite in the NFC West this year, but their...

The Speech Given somewhere in England on June 5th, 1944 "Be seated." Men, this stuff that some sources sling around about America wanting out of this war, not wanting to fight, is a crock of bullshit. Americans love to fight, traditionally. All real Americans love the sting and clash of battle. You are here today for three reasons. First, because you are here to defend your homes and your loved ones. Second, you are here for your own self-respect, because you would not want to be anywhere else. Third, you are here because you are real men and all real...
