Representative Liz Cheney (R-WY) said on Sunday’s broadcast of “Fox News Sunday” that there is a “massive criminal investigation underway” into former President Donald Trump’s role in inciting the deadly riot at Capitol Hill on January 6. When asked if she would vote to convict Trump, Cheney said, “If I was in the Senate, I would listen to the evidence. I think that is the role the Senate has as jurors. I would also point out that the Senate trial is a snapshot. There’s a massive criminal investigation underway. There will be a massive criminal investigation of everything that happened...

Senator Mitt Romney (R., Utah) on Thursday unveiled a proposal for a monthly child allowance, in which most parents of children younger than six would receive $350 and parents of kids ages six to 17 would receive $250. Romney’s Family Security Act is similar to a Democratic plan to increase the child tax credit from $2,600 to $3,600 as part of Biden’s coronavirus relief legislation. Democrats want to boost the tax credit, make it “fully refundable” so that lower-income parents qualify, and have the Internal Revenue Service disburse the payments in advance on a monthly basis, essentially creating a child...

Article Dig In Sen. Mitt Romney on Thursday proposed providing monthly payments to families with children to help them weather the COVID-19 pandemic. "This proposal offers a path toward greater security for America’s families by consolidating the many complicated programs to create a monthly cash benefit for them, without adding to the deficit,” Romney said in a press release. The Utah Republican said the proposal would streamline existing family policies to create one universal child benefit, titled the Family Security Act. Under the proposal, the existing child tax credit would be replaced with monthly payments of $350 for children ages...

Senator Rand Paul @RandPaul The Senate just voted on my constitutional point of order. 45 Senators agreed that this sham of a “trial” is unconstitutional. That is more than will be needed to acquit and to eventually end this partisan impeachment process. This “trial” is dead on arrival in the Senate. 4:26 PM · Jan 26, 2021·Twitter for iPhone

Nothing illustrates the political passions of a television network’s audience quite like ratings for a presidential inaugural. The 6.53 million people who watched President Joe Biden take the oath of office and deliver his inaugural address on MSNBC Wednesday was a whopping 338% bigger than its audience for Donald Trump’s swearing in four years ago, the Nielsen company said. On the flip side, Fox News Channel’s audience of 2.74 million for Biden on Wednesday represented a nearly 77% drop from its viewership for Trump in 2017, Nielsen said.

Stupid Republicans…

President Trump's personal attorney Rudy Giuliani said that as a member of the president's defense team in his upcoming impeachment trial he's preparing to argue that the president's claims of voter fraud did not constitute incitement to violence because the claims are true. "They basically claimed that anytime [Trump] says voter fraud, voter fraud — or I do, or anybody else — we're inciting violence; that those words are fighting words because it's totally untrue," Giuliani told ABC News Chief White House Correspondent Jonathan Karl. "Well, if you can prove that it's true, or at least true enough so it's...

Now that the impeachment scam has been completed, the narrative-creators will start letting the truth about what really happened in the Capitol riot on January 6 to start dribbling out. Thus it is that today we see the narrative creators at the Department of Justice who rashly promoted a false claim that those who entered the Capitol that day were planning to “capture and assassinate” various lawmakers, including Mike Pence and San Fran Nan Pelosi suddenly walking that claim back. From a story at Townhall.com: Justice Department attorneys have walked back the claim that Capitol rioters planned to “capture and...

It’s not uncommon for Cheney to break ranks with Trump, as she’s collided with the president on a number of foreign policy issues and ways to mitigate the coronavirus. Cheney condemned Trump’s military removal from several theaters. She rejected the Republican push to overturn the 2020 election results that was based on false instances of voter fraud. The Wyoming Representative is also an avid supporter of mask-wearing and social distancing measures and championed Dr. Anthony Fauci for his work during the pandemic.

CNN political analyst Carl Bernstein Thursday on CNN’s “Anderson Cooper 360” called Donald Trump a “secessionist, seditious president of the United States who inspired and celebrated a riot to burn down the Capitol.” Cooper said, “I wanted to bring in someone who masterfully told the story of Nixon’s final days, Carl Bernstein.”

For anyone not residing in D.C., that was the obvious lesson of 2016. Over four years later, too many elected representatives still haven't figured that out. Washington Republicans have worked tirelessly to make President Trump go away, and they have done so at great cost to the future of the Republican Party. When Republican leaders constantly countermand the voters of their own party, many voters would rather destroy the party and start from scratch than reward the very people who seem to hate them most. If the Mitt Romneys, Paul Ryans, Ben Sasses, or any of the other consistent NeverTrump...

Following a chaotic week in national politics with the deadly Capitol riots and the brutal Georgia runoffs, Republican National Committee (RNC) Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel was unanimously reelected Friday for another two years at the top of the Republican Party. Her reelection comes days after Democrats swept both of Georgia’s U.S. Senate seats in the twin runoff elections this past Tuesday that was a stinging defeat for the GOP. Democrats now hold a razor-thin majority in the upper congressional chamber and have gained the last piece of the trifecta after winning the White House in November and the House back in...

@daveweigel Unexpected statement from Paul Ryan: "It is difficult to conceive of a more anti-democratic and anti-conservative act than a federal intervention to overturn the results of state-certified elections and disenfranchise millions of Americans." More...

Sen. Mitt Romney of Utah thinks that the U.S. needs to keep troops in Afghanistan and Iraq, stating that even after 20 years of a military presence there, “conditions for withdrawal have not been met.”

I can almost remember the moment I gave up on Fox News.It was in 2015, and they had just had another “expert” panel on of ultra neverTrumpers—people like Jonah Goldberg or Guy Benson who sneered in the face of evidence. It was one thing, I thought, to have an opinion on why someone might be a “bad” candidate, but it was entirely something else to deny the reality that (as I recall) by that time he had led the entire GOP field for the entire summer. Sure, he might fade, but at that point, all the evidence suggested it would...

BREAKING: A group of pro-Trump autistic users from 4chan is reporting on Twitter that they have discovered serious violations of election security policies by users of Dominion software. According to them: "Users on 4chan hacked into Dominion and discovered that it was interconnected with the Internet to different states. This is huge. They (Dominion) used a back door to hide their tracks. They approached it from multiple directions to hide their activity." This is in contravention of all election laws. For example: "GA blaming the “glitch” on a software update is their biggest mistake as the machines are not supposed...

The very popular conservative, and open dialogue, Judge Jeanine Pirro has been suspended by Fox News Channel, for defending and supporting POTUS, Donald J. Trump and accusing Democrat, Joe Biden and the entire Democrat Party of cheating and fraud in the recent POTUS election. IMHO....I believe millions of Republican, Conservative, and "real liberal" Americans should immediate take to boycotting the entire Fox New Network, including Fox News Channel (FNC) & Fox Business News (FBN)!!! Do it...today!!!

Sgt. Harold Preston was a 41 year veteran of the Houston Police Department. He was the caretaker for his elderly parents. 65 years old, he was just a few weeks away from retirement. He was shot and killed Tuesday morning in the line of duty. Preston was shot by Elmer Manzano, an illegal alien and convicted felon with multiple priors. In October 1994, Manzano was arrested for the unlawful carrying of a firearm in Dallas County. That case was dismissed after a year of deferred adjudication, according to Dallas County court records.In August 2000, Manzano was arrested for assault in...
