Vice President Kamala Harris will promote police accountability on BET (Black Entertainment Television) Friday, while crime surges across the nation. ”On the issue of policing, we need accountability. And we are, and I was actually one of the original authors of the George Floyd Justice and Policing Act and I feel very strongly that needs to be passed,” Harris said in a press release about the show. “There needs to be accountability for police officers who break the rules or break the laws.”

Attorney General William Barr late Wednesday claimed that the Washington press corps is on a "jihad" against President Trump over his promotion of an anti-malaria drug to treat the novel coronavirus. In an interview with Fox News's Laura Ingraham Barr lauded Trump's response to the outbreak of the virus, saying that the president has been "very statesmanlike" in his efforts to work with governors around the country to address the crisis. He railed against the media's coverage of those efforts, though, arguing that the president has been the target of "snarky, gotcha questions from the White House media pool." He...

Spanish-language radio stations are playing overwhelmingly pro-Hillary songs on the radio. We have allowed a culture which largely hates us and wishes to dispossess us to grow and become a major political force against us. Such activity is specifically forbidden in Mexico, but then they turn and do the very same thing to us. At best we are facing civil war. At the worst death or enslavement.

How Disgusting! It wasn’t that long ago that the #NeverTrumpers pretended to be staunch conservatives too principled to support Republican record-setter Donald Trump. Not anymore. This week the #NeverTrumpers openly cheered Hillary Clinton and the Democrat-Socialist party.

A Colorado radio host is urging listeners to give up Girl Scout cookies due to what he referred to as the organization's promotion of "lesbianism." Kevin Swanson, a pastor and right-wing activist, said on his "Generations Radio" program, which originates in Elizabeth, Colo., that he doesn't condone purchasing Girl Scout cookies because the organization promotes homosexuality and supports abortion, MSNBC reported Tuesday. "Please, I beg of you, stop buying Girl Scout cookies," Swanson said on Monday's radio broadcast. "I'd say you ought to say no to the Girl Scout cookies," Swanson said. "I don't want to support lesbianism, I don't...

Daily Mail The U.S. Army's Combating Terrorism Center posted an explosive report early this morning that contains what are the last letters Osama bin Laden wrote before the raid that killed him a year ago.  The biggest bombshell is this: He wanted to target planes that Barack Obama and Gen. David Petraeus to promote the "utterly unprepared" Joe Biden to the office of presidency.From the letter bin Laden authored, the mission was of "anticipating and spotting the visits of Obama or Petraeus to Afghanistan or Pakistan to target the aircraft of either one of them." They are not to target...

WASHINGTON, June 7, 2010 – Twenty-eight Medal of Honor recipients recently launched the “Medal of Honor – Speak Out” campaign to encourage troops struggling with post-traumatic stress disorder, traumatic brain injuries and other health problems to take advantage of services to help them. The Army, Navy, Air Force and Marine Corps Medal of Honor recipients dating back to World War II echo a common theme in video messages for today’s returning combat veterans: Take advantage of the resources now available to treat the unseen scars of war. “Make use of them,” they encourage today’s troops. “Stay strong, and don’t let...

(CNSNews.com) – Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius says President Obama “expects” all cabinet departments to leverage their resources in support of public health, a move she suggested is unprecedented. “One of the things that’s happened in this administration, which I would suggest has not really happened in the past, is that the president has made it very clear to all of us at the cabinet level that while health may be directly in the portfolio of Health and Human Services, he expects all of the cabinet officers to spend some time figuring out ways that we can leverage...

WASHINGTON -- The Democratic leaders of California's state legislature told congressional lawmakers Thursday that the nation should follow California's lead in acting to curb global warming emissions. "This wasn't easy to do in California, it was tough," Assembly Speaker Fabian Nunez, D-Los Angeles, testified before a Senate committee hearing, saying Congress shouldn't wait for other countries to act. "If we wait for them to act and don't play a central role at the global level, as a nation there's a lot to lose," said Nunez. Nunez and state Senate President Pro Tem Don Perata appeared before a hearing of the...

When it comes to Iraq, our media have been preoccupied with the issue of whether there was adequate intelligence to justify the invasion and if policy-makers made up evidence before the war. But on the matter of global intervention to stop global warming, there seems to be no need for scientific evidence to justify what is shaping up as a global carbon tax of 35 cents a gallon of gas on the American people. It's difficult to figure out which is the bigger fraud-the U.N. or our media. Incredibly, the much-publicized United Nations climate change report, which blames global warming...

WASHINGTON, Jan. 14, 2007 – Coalition representatives met Jan. 12 with members of the newly formed Khost Reform Association at a forward base in Khost province, Afghanistan, to discuss the group’s focus on national unity and reconstruction.

Sacramento -- Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger, drawing on his beliefs about fitness and personal responsibility, will make breaking the poor health habits of Californians a component of his much-anticipated health care agenda. From too much junk food and too little exercise to missed doctor visits, Schwarzenegger wants to get serious about shaping up California. Although debate continues internally about how the administration would encourage participation, officials said Friday that Schwarzenegger wants his health care agenda to address not just cost and coverage issues but also disease prevention. "The governor has always been a firm believer that at the core of solving...

The California Republican Party has raised $12.3 million this year, most of it in unlimited donations, according to campaign finance reports reviewed Tuesday. That is nearly twice what the Democratic Party has raised this year, although Democrats still have more in their bank account heading into the November general election. As of June 30, the Republican Party had $3 million cash on hand, while the Democrats had $9 million. That includes money the party raised in previous years. The Democrat's total will rise after a fundraiser scheduled Tuesday night in Beverly Hills with President Bill Clinton. The event is expected...

WASHINGTON, June 14, 2006 – Nine seemingly coordinated attacks yesterday in Kirkuk, Iraq, demonstrate that enemy forces haven't given up their efforts to derail the new Iraqi government, a top military official said here today. The attacks "indicate that there are still cells of hardened, lethal and merciless individuals who do not hesitate to kill innocent civilians in an effort to undermine the legitimate government of Iraq," Army Brig. Gen. Carter Ham, the Joint Staff's deputy director for regional operations, told Pentagon reporters. The attacks killed three Iraqi policemen and at least 11 Iraqi civilians, and wounded seven police and...

WASHINGTON, May 26, 2006 – The 91 countries in U.S European Command's area of responsibility represent a vast breadth of culture and geography, yet the command's mission is the same throughout: supporting the Long War and creating conditions hospitable to democracy and stability. Though no combat zones are within European Command's boundaries, the command is doing its part in supporting the global war on terrorism, new EUCOM deputy commander Army Gen. William E. "Kip" Ward said in an interview yesterday. "Assigned forces of the United States European Command are involved globally in prosecuting this long war. Our forces are serving...
