A new CNN poll carries with it a stark reality check for Democrats who thought November would usher in a magnificent blue wave of liberal enthusiasm, giving them control of the House and giving Paul Ryan’s gavel to Nancy Pelosi once again. Not only are Democrats now coming to terms with the fact that their dreams of taking back the ...

Democrats are trying their best to railroad yet another Trump nominee – this time, Gina Haspel, who has been tapped to head up the CIA. They say her involvement in the agency’s “torture” program in the years after 9/11 makes her unfit to lead the CIA now, in our supposedly more enlightened, post-Bush era. And in that argument, they have ...

Conservatives on Capitol Hill were gratified on Monday when the Trump administration announced that the president would be sending the first of several rescissions packages to Congress, asking lawmakers to cancel $15 billion in already-approved spending. “Tomorrow the president is going to be using his authority under the Impoundment Control Act to send up the largest rescissions package in history ...

Is a year and a half long enough to get over an election result?

The State Department just released its annual report on the voting record of the United Nations, and it’s even more dismal than it has been in recent years. According to the report, UN member states only voted with the U.S. 31% of the time last year, which is down 10% from the year before. At a time when Republicans are ...

Senior Trump administration officials confirmed Tuesday that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s bombshell disclosure of thousands of secret Iranian documents accurately represented the evidence that Iran lied its way into the nuclear agreement. That agreement, signed by an overeager Obama administration and defended by our European allies, could be as good as dead now that the public knows how deep ...

According to a new poll from Reuters, the Democratic Party has a big problem on their hands: One of their key demographics is growing sick of the party and looking for greener voting pastures. The poll, which surveyed 16,000 registered voters between the ages of 18 and 34, showed that millennials – the demo that Democrats are counting on to ...

Once former FBI Director James Comey’s memos were released to the public in full detail, it was quickly obvious why the Justice Department was so eager to keep them hidden from view.
