'Failure will have serious consequences' Left-wing activists are threatening to shut down the Congressional Baseball Game five years after a far-left gunman shot up the bipartisan event, almost killing House Republican Whip Steve Scalise. A climate activist group called Now or Never on Wednesday unveiled a three-part plan that starts with shutting down the annual game to force action from Democratic leaders, who the group says are guilty of refusing "to act boldly" on issues like climate change, abortion, and voting rights "for fear it will be too ‘polarizing.'" Now or Never's parent organization, the Action Network, is located at...

For all of its reputation as the “conservative” voice among the major news channels, Fox News has a funny way of showing it. Fox News Sunday host John Roberts asked his guest, House Minority Whip Steve Scalise (R-La.), if his Republican Party is “out of step” with America in opposing gun control. Scalise, a Louisiana Republican, opened the interview by suggesting that Democrats want to “take away guns” in response to recent mass shootings, such as the one in Uvalde, Texas, that caused the deaths of 19 fourth-graders and two teachers. “When you have a shooting,” Scalise told Roberts, “instead...

What we need to do is be encouraging people to get vaccinated, not trying to shame people that are unvaccinated,” said Scalise.

The Capitol Police say this is the same rule that was previously in place and there's "no reason" a situation should have to escalate to an arrest. "Regarding the House rules about masks, there is no reason it should ever come to someone being arrested," the USCP said in a statement to Fox News. "Anyone who does not follow the rules will be asked to wear a mask or leave the premises. The Department’s requirement for officers to wear masks is for their health and safety." Pelosi's office said she did not order police to begin arresting people because it's...

Let's start by refreshing your memory on a few facts. Andrew McCabe, the former Deputy Director of the FBI, was fired from his job after a nonpartisan Inspector General determined that he'd lied under oath to federal investigators on multiple occasions. McCabe then started a GoFundMe, playing the victim as he manipulated 'Resistance' voters into sending him hundreds of thousands of their dollars. CNN, the self-professed "facts first" network proceeded to hire him as an analyst -- this man who'd been sacked for not telling the truth, under penalty of perjury. McCabe has used that platform to assail his critics,...

“Israel’s under attack,” Scalise said, noting this week’s war. “Where’s President Biden’s leadership? He’s more time negotiating to help Iran get towards a nuclear weapon, than to confront the problems of Hamas and Palestinians attacking Israel.” Scalise was speaking after the House Republican caucus had elected Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-NY) to the position of Conference Chair, replacing Rep. Liz Cheney (R-WY) as the number three ranking member in the caucus after she was ousted this week. On the Senate side, Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) and almost all of his Republican colleagues sent a letter to President Biden this week, urging...

Remember all those Democrat demands for the FBI to enhance their statistics and record-keeping to quantify threats? Remember FBI Director Chris Wray using those FBI compiled statistics to say that “white nationalists” are the greatest threat? Put those two issues together and consider…. ….What value are statistical records when those who compile the records are politically motivated to mislabel the true origin of any attack? Think about it. Cue the visual demonstration: WASHINGTON – A congressman who was on the baseball field during the 2017 shooting that nearly killed GOP Whip Steve Scalise says the FBI privately informed lawmakers it...

A congressman who was on the baseball field during the 2017 shooting that nearly killed GOP Whip Steve Scalise says the FBI privately informed lawmakers it ruled the attack a "suicide by cop," a designation he said downplayed the shooter's apparently political motivation. Rep. Brad Wenstrup (R-Ohio) revealed the previously undisclosed determination during a hearing of the House Intelligence Committee on Thursday, upbraiding FBI Director Christopher Wray and prompting several colleagues of both parties to pile on. He said FBI agents privately briefed the baseball team on Nov. 16, 2017 to deliver the controversial determination. “Much to our shock that...
