  • Gohmert: Calling Hunter Biden as a Witness ‘More of a Sideshow’

    Breitbart ^ | 30 Nov 2019 | IAN HANCHETT
    On Friday’s broadcast of the Fox News Channel’s “The Story,” House Judiciary Committee member Louie Gohmert (R-TX) stated that calling Hunter Biden as a witness is “more of a sideshow.” According to Gohmert, that was because Hunter Biden didn’t hold a government position. Gohmert called for the whistleblower, former NSC employee Abigail Grace, and former NSC employee Sean Misko to be called as witnesses. Host Ed Henry then asked Gohmert about calling Hunter Biden as a witness. Gohmert responded, “That’s more of a sideshow. Because the real corruption is not with Hunter Biden. He wasn’t in a position of —...

    The White House on Monday afternoon re-lowered its flags to half staff after drawing significant backlash for returning them to full staff less than 48 hours after the death of Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.). Multiple reporters noted on social media that the flags were flying at half staff once again. The White House did not immediately respond to questions for comment on why the change was made.
  • Oprah Winfrey better odds for President 2020 than Joe Biden

    Media billionaire Oprah Winfrey has better odds of being elected President in 2020 that former Vice President Joe Biden. BetOnline currently gives the star a 20 to 1 chance at making replacing Trump, whilst Biden is given odds of only 25 to 1 — the same chance as Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg and New York Senator Kirsten Gillibrand. Neither Biden nor Oprah has formally committed to running, but both have made clear they’re interested. Oprah’s acceptance speech of the Cecil B. De Mille Award at the Golden Globes sparked widespread speculation that she may be gearing up for a pivot...

  • Now 18 House Republicans Are Ready to Throw in the Towel in Obamacare Fight [Title Shortened]

    The Blaze ^ | October 2, 2013 | Jason Howerton
    There are now reportedly a total of 18 House Republicans ready to throw in the towel in the current battle over Obamacare in order to end the first government shutdown in 17 years. As TheBlaze reported on Tuesday, Democrats needs just 17 GOP lawmakers to defect from the majority of Republicans in the House to pass a “clean” continuing resolution that fully funds both Obamacare and the federal government.

    All anyone in America who cares about politics was talking about this week was the searing encounter that captured, in a way that hasn't been done before, the essence of the political moment we're in. When 2010 is reviewed, it will be the clip the producers pick to illustrate the president's disastrous fall. It is Monday, Sept. 20, the middle of the day, in Washington. CNBC is holding a town hall for the president. A woman stands—handsome, dignified, black, a person with presence. She looks as if she may be what she turns out to be, an Obama supporter who...
  • Gang-Rape in Annapolis, Saudi Style

    Townhall.com ^ | November 27, 2007 | Frank J. Gaffney, Jr.
    It is fitting that Condoleezza Rice chose the U.S. Naval Academy for the venue of tomorrow’s so-called Mideast peace conference. The reputation of that extraordinary institution in Annapolis has been sullied in recent years by a succession of rapes of young women. Despite official efforts to low-ball its significance, Ms. Rice’s conclave is shaping up to be a gang-rape of a nation on a scale not seen since Munich in 1938, when the British and French allowed Hitler and Mussolini to have their violent way with Czechoslovakia. This time, the intended victim is Israel. As with the effort to appease...

    War On Terrorism: Thousands of active members of the military sign a letter urging Congress to support the mission in Iraq. But the media, focused on anything that'll make the war look bad, just yawn. Let anyone who ever wore the uniform voice concern about the war, and the media are immediately interested. How many rent-a-generals, for instance, have we seen, heard from or read about in the last four years who've been critical of our involvement and/or performance in Iraq? On the other hand, all we heard was crickets chirping as 2,700 soldiers — all on active duty —...

    Paul Honored as "Taxpayers' Friend" for Tenth Consecutive Year www.house.gov/paul/February 21, 2007Washington, DC: Congressman Ron Paul has been recognized as a top advocate for taxpayers in the U.S. Congress for the tenth year in a row, earning the nonpartisan National Taxpayers Union’s annual award as a "Taxpayers’ Friend" for 2005. Only 30 of 435 members in the U.S. House of Representatives earned similar honors last year.The annual NTU rating is based on critical congressional votes relating to federal tax, spending, and regulatory issues. Paul consistently ranks at or near the top of NTU’s scorecard in terms of his pro-taxpayer votes.Overall,...
  • Hastert denies GOP saw Foley's "vile" messages (Conservatives calling for resignations.)

    House Speaker J. Dennis Hastert said yesterday that Republican leaders had not previously seen the more lurid Internet "instant messages" sent by disgraced ex-Rep. Mark Foley as influential conservatives began calling for party leadership resignations over the handling of the matter. Mr. Hastert said "No one in the Republican leadership ... saw those messages until last Friday when ABC News released them." Still, several well-known conservatives called for Republican resignations because Hastert and other leaders did not act aggressively enough when they first learned of a separate set of "overly friendly" e-mails that Mr. Foley had sent to another teenage...

    Rep. Patrick Kennedy (news, bio, voting record) crashed his car near the Capitol early Thursday, and a police official said he appeared intoxicated. Kennedy said he had taken sleep medication and a prescription anti-nausea drug that can cause drowsiness. Kennedy, D-R.I., addressed the issue after a spate of news reports. His initial statement said: "I consumed no alcohol prior to the incident."'Later, however, he issued a longer statement saying the attending physician for Congress had prescribed Phenergan on Tuesday to treat Kennedy's gastroenteritis.Kennedy said he returned to his Capitol Hill home on Wednesday evening after a final series of votes...
  • Origin Of New British Museum Exhibit Looks A Bit Wobbly

    Origin of new British Museum exhibit looks a bit wobbly By Nigel Reynolds, Arts Correspondent (Filed: 19/05/2005) Visitors to the British Museum unfamiliar with the date of the wheel's invention may have been puzzled by a primitive painting in the Roman Britain gallery this week, showing a caveman pushing a supermarket trolley. The earliest recorded wheels, as every schoolboy knows, are from Mesopotamia around 5,500 years ago. Trolleys were first used in the Piggly-Wiggly Supermarket chain [really], Oklahoma City, in 1937. The bizarre exhibit, stuck to a wall with double-sided tape and labelled "Early Man Goes to Market" was, of...

    Dear Senator Santorum, This is not something that I do often, but I'm writing now because I'm very concerned that you and the other Senate Republicans are GOING TO CAVE to the likes of Dingy Harry, Leaky Leahy, Chappaquiddick Ted, and the Hildabeast on the issue of the President's judicial nominations. It will be a sad day for America if these ANTI-AMERICAN COMMUNIST SYMPATHIZERS whose leftist agenda was overwhelmingly rejected by the voters last November are able to prevent good constructionist judges from being seated on the federal bench. The recent judicial HOMICIDE of a disabled woman in Florida (which...

    The American Thinker ^ | April 10th 2004 | Michael Morris
    You heard it here first folks: the last bastion of British Conservatism appears to have thrown in the proverbial towel on their support for the war in Iraq. The Daily Telegraph, part of Conrad Black’s troubled Hollinger Group, is starting to back-track on their once unshakeable belief that the war was justified. Even more distasteful is that they have used the BBC 24 News channel to do it. This feels a lot like being stabbed in the back by an old friend who is using your enemy’s dagger for the murderous task. At 8:35 GMT on Saturday morning, the BBC...

    Jack Straw fears failure in Iraq: determination is the answer By Daniel Johnson (Filed: 04/09/2003) Yesterday's meeting at 10 Downing Street between Jack Straw and Tony Blair revealed that they are now seriously alarmed by the deteriorating situation in Iraq, and confidential advice to the Foreign Secretary depicts a country on the brink of collapse. The devastating attacks on the UN headquarters in Baghdad and the Shi'ite holy city of Najaf have clearly prompted a new sense of urgency. Participants at yesterday's meeting were invited to think the hitherto unthinkable: "We are at risk of strategic failure in Iraq." We...

    What if instead of 24 hour coverage of two enterprise buildings in flames/crumbling, the world was fixated on the smoking remains of the seat of the government of the United States, and it the fiery end of the central control of it's armed forces? This WAS the original plan, was it not? There was a credible threat to Air Force One, too but the others are confessed targets. Would the prime minister of Germany be hemming and hawing about how America has no right to unilaterally preempt potential terror plans of Baghdad or would Canada's Cretien be saying how he...
