On today's Morning Joe, George Conway of the Lincoln Project compared President Trump's impending departure from office unfavorably to that of Richard Nixon's, who resigned in 1974 when facing virtually certain impeachment and removal from office. Conway claimed that, unlike President Trump, Nixon actually loved the country, and felt contrition and regret. Conway predicted that, whereas there was some "sadness and sorrow" for Nixon, a "broken man," in 1974, there will be none for President Trump, whom he twice called a "psychopath." To the contrary, Conway said that Trump is "going to be a pariah for the rest of his...

Big Tech's rush to take down and ban social media accounts or de-platform entire websites that they believe in some way caused the horrible rioting at the Capitol is based on fear -- that Joe Biden's inauguration will devolve into another riot. Or that there will be riots at state capitols. Social media platforms such as Twitter are only focused on President Donald Trump and his millions of devoted fans. They don't seem to focus on violent thoughts on the left, most prominently the Hollywood left. Apparently, their violent thoughts are never plausibly dangerous; no one could ever be incited...

Democrats started trying to remove President Donald Trump from office before he entered office. Now they are proposing to remove him from office after he leaves office. How do you remove an ex-president? He's already gone. That is the bizarre question posed by House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's obsessive quest to re-impeach Trump with just a few days left in his term. Why impeach the president now, as the House seeks to do, when there is not enough time for the Senate to hold a trial and pass judgment on the case before Trump's term expires on Wednesday, Jan. 20? Some...

https://www.rushlimbaugh.com/daily/2021/01/11/what-trump-supposedly-said-to-incite-violence/ Nobody is replaying Trump’s speech illustrating how he incited this, quote, unquote, attack on Congress. Why is this? I mean, you would think that they would be wall-to-wall with this. Wouldn’t you? If they had audiotape, videotape, whatever they have, of Trump inciting the mob like the New York Times headline said there, they’d have it on a repeating loop, right? You couldn’t miss it. Where is it? Where is Trump’s speech, where’s the highlight? Where’s the B-roll? Where’s the A-roll? Where’s the C-roll? Where’s the cinnamon roll? Where’s any of it? Answer: They’re not playing it for you....

Now that all the ambiguity has been removed, and Republicans, conservatives, and Trump supporters are confronted with the stark reality of — gulp! — the Age of Biden, the time has come to consider just how bad things will get, and how we can muddle through for the next two to four...years? Generations? First, how bad is it? Pretty darn bad. Consider the fact that, even with Donald Trump in the White House and Mitch McConnell holding court in the Senate, leftists were predominant in every other consequential institution nationwide. They dominated the federal bureaucracy; primary, secondary, and higher education;...

It appears there will be a speech by President Trump today. Not only does RSBN plan to carry it, there's also a link on YouTube by The White House. President Trump did board Air Force 1 this morning.

Like a NASCAR winner doing donuts, the smoke must be pouring off the tires of Joe Scarborough's car. Because on today's Morning Joe, Scarborough pulled a screeching, rubber-burning, 180. Just last week, we noted Scarborough demanding that President Trump "be arrested today. He should be sent to jail today for insurrection." But on today's show, Scarborough suddenly changed course, warning against prosecuting President Trump. Said Scarborough: "My concern has always been, we go down this road, then we are criminalizing politics . . . Do we not have to keep that in mind. Do we not have to keep that...

“The Republican nominee for president will be that candidate who best learns that there is no future in apologizing,” I wrote in a June 10, 2015, column. Six days later Donald Trump descended the escalator at Trump Tower and, in so doing, launched the most volatile period in American history since the Civil War. I wish I could say I had Trump in mind when I wrote the above, but as right as my prediction proved to be, I did not even know Trump was running. His refusal to back down or apologize came at a huge personal cost, but...

I didn’t really want to write this article since I’ll probably be banned faster from big tech than expected, but as a lawyer whose favorite area of law is constitutional law, I see it as my duty. The left is trying to get rid of President Trump before the end of his term, saying he incited an insurrection in the speech he gave near the White House on January 6. House Democrats have drafted Articles of Impeachment with over 150 sponsors. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi compared Trump’s actions to those of President Nixon’s in Watergate. Dozens of Democrats and some...

In the aftermath of the riots in the spring of 1992, the Los Angeles Times ran a five-part series under the banner, Understanding the Riots. The acquittal of policemen accused in the beating death of Rodney King sparked one of the worst riots in American history. When order was finally restored 63 people were dead. Part three in that series was subtitled Witness to Rage, an attempt to rationalize the rioting. Don’t expect anything like that following the recent events at the U.S. Capitol. Even though no buildings burned and the most shocking confrontation resulted in the fatal shooting of...

"But my message to a watching world right now is simple: John 3:16 will remain true long after the Trump reelection prophecies are forgotten. Don't confuse what is written in the Word with some alleged prophetic words,” Dr. Michael Brown writes. I am really glad that Dr. Brown wrote all of this down. I really need to get this out there to this prophetic, praying community of Believers in the Body of Christ in particular, but I share these words to the world at large, too. There is too much interest in prophecies on the earth, and not enough interest...

Source: Official White House Photo by Shealah Craighead>Much has been written and discussed recently about what will be the legacy of the Trump administration. The political media and left-wing activists are feverishly at work writing their version in the hope that it will be accepted by the public as common knowledge. It is unsurprisingly the most negative version possible, with allegations of inciting violence in the Capitol building and long ago-debunked tales of Russian collusion. This is nonsense. The most enduring legacy of the Trump administration will be the construction of 450 miles of new wall at our southern border....

The Trump administration recently finalized two rules meant to reduce Medicare drug prices -- while ignoring some serious unintended consequences. For seniors, the rules are a mixed bag. One will help patients save money at the pharmacy. But the other, the "most-favored-nation" rule, is likely to backfire, reducing access to treatments in the long run. The most-favored-nation rule prohibits Medicare from paying more for certain advanced medicines than the lowest price paid in other wealthy countries. It applies to physician-administered drugs, including treatments for osteoporosis, kidney disease and cancer. The list price of many of these drugs are deeply discounted...

It’s one thing to debate whether Twitter and Facebook were right to block President Trump’s account in the immediate aftermath of the storming of the Capitol on Tuesday. I would argue that the move was unjustified, being yet another example of Big Tech overreach and censorship. On the other hand, in the heat of the moment, and with fear that the president could incite rioters, an argument could be made for a temporary block. But to ban him for life? On what grounds? Well, according to former First Lady Michelle Obama, because he is “infantile and unpatriotic.” As reported in...

America is on edge this week. The harrowing scenes of our nation’s Capitol being attacked by rioters was an emotional and jarring experience for the American people. What we need right now is to come together, as we have been able to do during turbulent times in the past, as Americans, united in our commitment to the Constitution, and seeking national healing. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, however, misreads the situation. She is less interested in a moment of national healing than she is in scoring political points by satisfying her party’s far-left base with a new call for a second...

We have all seen the effects of a growing tide of portals and outlets seeking to silence, deplatform, limit, or outright remove specific voices and sources from public view. The justifications are numerous, and usually more hysterical than lucid. What is truly perplexing however is when a member of the media itself - a purported journalist no less - actively calls for the silencing of others in their field. Welcome, fair-minded citizens, to the vocational calling of Oliver Darcy, from CNN.Darcy works in tandem with the infamous media hall monitor from their Reliable Sources program -- call him Stelter The...

The news broke today that Twitter has permanently banned President Trump. The liberal brigades have predictably emerged to justify Twitter's move. But of all the arguments used to support the banning, this from "NBC News presidential historian" Michael Beschloss could be the most recklessly contemptible. MICHAEL BESCHLOSS: The problem, Twitter is instant. So, if he wants to have a sudden impact on people, or to move the stock market. Maybe he’s got friends who are investing in certain stocks that will benefit. Maybe they'll give him a kickback! I don't know if any of that is true.Get the rest of...
