Newt Gingrich:“We are drifting towards the greatest constitutional crisis since the 1850’s and the rise of secession and civil war,” he said on Fox News. “I don’t mean that as hyperbole.” “What you are seeing across the country is a desperate, last ditch effort by a corrupt machine to destroy their most dangerous opponent in a way that not only breaks the constitution, destroys the rule of law and establishes a moment of bitterness which I think will last for a generation or more" “This is going to be a horrendous period. The people who want to control America and...

Former Speaker Newt Gingrich (R-Ga.) testified Thursday before a federal grand jury investigating the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol, according to CNN. The former House committee that investigated the Jan. 6 riot alleged last September that Gingrich had provided feedback to the Trump campaign about advertisements promoting the former president’s unsubstantiated claims about voter fraud and discussed “coordinating” state electors. In a letter to the former Speaker requesting a voluntary interview, the committee said that Gingrich communicated with former Trump senior advisers Jared Kushner and Jason Miller on campaign ads about the election, after it had been declared for...

This is Newt Gingrich defending President George Bush 41 on the bill that raised taxes called the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1990. In all fairness to Newt, he and all but 10 Republicans voted against it, but listen to the way he defends Bush. It is the same as people defending the GOP today. This interview occurred on the Bob Grant Show on 10/25/1990. The bill was passed on 11/5/1990. ”>< /a>

The conspiracy between a corrupt set of bureaucracies (including the Justice Department, the IRS, and the intelligence community) and an equally corrupt and enabling elite media is astonishing. The Durham Report is just one more confirmation of the devastating level of dishonesty and manipulation which have characterized the last few years.Some analysts believe the open corruption can be traced back to Lois Lerner and the IRS scandal, in which she clearly stonewalled conservative organizations from getting tax status. When she was found to be in contempt of Congress, the Obama Justice Department spent two years ignoring the congressional contempt charge...

Joe Biden’s announcement that he is running for re-election has put the Democrats in a pickle. Not only is Biden visibly declining into senescence at an accelerating pace, he has re-upped his commitment to Kamal Harris as his running mate and likely replacement if elected to a second term, and obviously unable to complete it in all likelihood. But getting rid of an incumbent president is difficult, and replacing a black and female running mate is difficult, to say the east. Even worse, the only serious challenger within the party, Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., is unacceptably hostile to the pharma...

Former Speaker New Gingrich joined Maria Bartiromo on Sunday Morning Futures this morning. Newt suggested that Susan Rice left the flailing and corrupt Biden regime to get ready for Michelle Obama’s run for president in 2024. .... Snip..... Newt Gingrich: I think at a minimum, it probably is a sign that she said, don’t do it, and he said, I’m doing it anyway. And I think she just didn’t want to be part of a Biden reelection. And I also think that I was very struck when Mark Halperin, in his wide world of news, ran the video of Michelle...

When it came to discussing the House speakership quandary, Joe Scarborough suffered from something of a split personality on today's Morning Joe. On the one hand, Scarborough supported Newt Gingrich's take that the "Never Kevin" Republicans refusing to support McCarthy are risking the "meltdown" of the GOP. It's Kevin or chaos! On the other hand, Scarborough noted that in 1998, he was one of five Republican House members who drove Newt out of the speakership. There was no such split opinion from Charlie Sykes. The Never Trumper and MSNBC columnist couldn't keep himself from literally laughing at the Republicans' predicament,...

After President Biden’s face-to-face meeting with Vladimir Putin in Geneva last week, I couldn’t help but think of my trip to Russia in 1993. I was on a congressional delegation visiting Moscow when Boris Yeltsin was president and the West had great hopes for a more open, democratic Russia. I went to see the then-vice president, who was an air force general, in his office. One entire wall of the room was a map of the Soviet Union. Being cheerfully ignorant, I said to him, "Gosh, that’s a map of the Soviet Union." He looked at me and he responded,...

On Monday’s “Fox & Friends,” former House Speaker Newt Gingrich declared next month’s midterm election to be the biggest election for the Republican Party in more than 100 years. “I think a tsunami is coming – I think it’s going to be huge,” he said. “When people learn that every single Democrat in the House voted for the Transgender Supremacy Act and that all of the Democratic senators up for re-election, every one of them co-sponsored the Transgender Supremacy Act in the Senate, and they look at the details of that bill. They realize it would guarantee any boy who...

Rep. Alex Mooney proposes the United States adopt a new gold standard after U.S. government officials first disclose all gold holdings and secret gold transactions, allowing the gold price to adjust to its fair market value. WASHINGTON, DC / ACCESSWIRE / October 9, 2022 / America's currency would regain stable footing for the first time in half a century if a bill just introduced by U.S. Representative Alex Mooney (R-WV) becomes law. Referred to as the "Gold Standard Restoration Act" by sound money activists, H.R. 9157 calls for the repegging of the Federal Reserve note to gold in order to...

Republicans have the potential for a surprisingly big victory come this November's midterm elections. The public is dealing with a cost-of-living crisis (more than 20,000,000 are behind on their utility bills), rising energy costs, a record number of homicides, carjackings, and robberies, and the consequences of a wide-open border policy that has brought in a massive influx of both people and drugs. On virtually every front, people are finding themselves frustrated and frightened by a Democratic Party that is simply failing.

Newt Gingrich and Sen Tom Cotton join Mark Levin on Life, Liberty & Levin tonight, August 28 at 8pm eastern on Fox News.

Senate candidate John Fetterman isn’t just radical, he is a threat to the life and safety of every Pennsylvania citizen. by Newt GingrichI recently reviewed every U.S. Senate race in the country, and it became obvious that the most radical candidate, by a huge margin, is Pennsylvania Lt. Gov. John Fetterman.Fetterman can’t possibly win the Senate race against Dr. Mehmet Oz if the central issues become Fetterman’s record and policy positions. He is simply too pro-drug, pro-crime, pro-woke theology – not to mention anti-Western Pennsylvanian oil and gas jobs – to win in an essentially centrist state.Fetterman knows his record...

As readers of The Washington Post and his syndicated column know, Dana Milbank covers politics with snap and crackle. His gift, and his dogged reporting, serve him well in his new book, “The Destructionists” (good title), on the quarter-century-long crackup of the Republican Party. While reading it, a line by the late P.J. O’Rourke came to mind: “The Democrats are the party that says government will make you smarter, taller, richer, and remove the crabgrass on your lawn. The Republicans are the party that says government doesn’t work and then they get elected and prove it.” Another line kept coming...

MSNBC host Joe Scarborough said Thursday on “Morning Joe” that former Republican House Speaker Newt Gingrich is a “freak” for criticizing the FBI raid on former President Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate. Scarborough said, “Some of the same people are making dark, ominous threats, now comparing the FBI to Stalin, now suggesting that this is a banana republic, now saying we have to go to war against the FBI. These people hate law and order. I thought they were the party of law and order. They don’t believe in the rule of law when it applies to the most powerful, I...

Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich said the Chinese Communist Party’s (CCP) threats in response to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s (D-Calif.) trip to Taiwan are merely posturing.Speaking to Fox News, Gingrich said a similar scenario unfolded in 1997 when he visited both China and Taiwan. He was the last speaker to visit the self-governing island country.At the time, CCP officials invited Gingrich to deliver speeches in Beijing and Shanghai but their rhetoric changed when he mentioned visiting Taiwan. For decades, the CCP has claimed Taiwan is its territory despite it being a functionally democratic and independent state since 1949.Gingrich, a Republican,...

During Monday’s broadcast of FNC’s “Fox & Friends,” former House Speaker Newt Gingrich weighed in on Democrats reportedly questioning if President Joe Biden should run again in 2024. With former President Donald Trump’s decision about running in 2024 still looming, Gingrich said that “every week that goes by, Donald Trump’s presidency looks better.” He pointed to the record-high inflation, the border crisis and gas prices, saying people preferred Trump’s policies.

Democrats are beginning to really worry about the 2022 elections. And they should. **SNIP** The odds are that the House Republicans will gain 25 to 70 seats as the voter tsunami builds in response to the economic, cultural and practical pain created by the Democrats’ policies. Fox News reported on the scare tactic the Democrats think they will be forced into: "MSNBC analyst John Heilemann revealed a ‘dark’ strategy Democrats are considering using to curb potential losses during the November midterm elections on ‘Deadline: White House’ Tuesday. The only solutions that will alleviate the various crises Biden is overseeing would...
