House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff (D-Calif.) said in an interview broadcast Sunday night he plans to subpoena President Trump's personal attorney Rudy Giuliani for documents tied to the Ukraine scandal. "We’re going to need evidence from Rudy Giuliani," Schiff told "60 Minutes" correspondent Scott Pelley. "And it’s our intention as soon as first thing next week to subpoena him for documents. And there may very well come a time where we want to hear from him directly." Schiff's remarks come after he explicitly left the door open in an earlier interview on Sunday to having Giuliani to appear before...

SANTA FE— Gov. Bill Richardson, goodfella? Richardson and a list of other prospective presidential contenders were in the laugh limelight Wednesday on "The Tonight Show with Jay Leno." In his popular "Jaywalking" segment, Leno flashed their pictures to passers-by at Universal Studios and asked who they were. Richardson, like the rest of the Oval Office possibles, didn't fare too well: The guy Leno showed Richardson's photo to thought the governor might be a character from the HBO TV series "The Sopranos." "Don't know. Looks like somebody from 'The Sopranos,' but I'm not sure who," the unnamed passer-by told Leno. "I'm...

An al-Qaida-linked extremist group warned Pope Benedict XVI on Monday that he and the West were "doomed," as protesters raged across the Muslim world to demand more of an apology from the pontiff for his remarks about Islam and violence. The Mujahedeen Shura Council, an umbrella organization of Sunni Arab extremist groups that includes al-Qaida in Iraq, issued a statement on a Web forum vowing to continue its holy war against the West. The authenticity of the statement could not be independently verified. The group said Muslims would be victorious and addressed the pope as "the worshipper of the cross"...

I believe America weeps, because it has been made to deny natural character traits of citizenship, duty, and retribution, while sensing betrayal, defeat, and denial orchestrated by the hand-in glove government-media complex in their duel failure to clarify and attack America's enemies. No Pound Of Flesh We are all consciously aware that there has been no satisfaction, no pound of flesh taken, for the brutal and horrific sneak attack on our Citizens.We are a country gripped not in a righteous offensive mode, but rather a defensive mode, which will ultimately cripple our economic growth. Customs agents are incapable of detecting...

The massive American-British air raid over western Iraq on the evening of Sept. 6 is almost certainly a precursor to an invasion of the country. An estimated 100 warplanes delivered a major blow to Iraq's various command and control systems that could deliver weapons of mass destruction and complicate an invasion by ground forces. That strike followed a raid on Aug. 5, when allied bombers demolished Saddam Hussein's air-command-and-control center southwest of Baghdad. Key Iraqi air-defense lines have been taken out, and the way is now clear for U.S. special forces. Israeli intelligence sources report that some 15 percent...

It was once called Khurasan, along with parts of Iran and Pakistan. Muhammad said: "If you see the black flags coming from Khurasan, join that army, even if you have to crawl over ice, for that is the army of the Imam al-Mahdi and no one can stop that army until it reaches Jerusalem." That is one reason Osama bin Laden chose it as his base, or al-Qaida. Mohammed's ...
