The Republican tax cut is resulting in tangible benefits for workers more quickly than even many of its supporters expected. Bolstering an already-improving U.S. economy, it is starting to exert an equally powerful influence on U.S. politics. To be sure, President Donald Trump still suffers from low approval ratings. “Based on approval ratings one year into a first term, Trump is the most unpopular president since at least Harry Truman,” notes Harry Enten of the website FiveThirtyEight today. But there are interesting trends in political polling data. Mr. Enten explains: The anniversary of President Trump’s inauguration is Saturday, and he is ending his first year on an ...

Dick Durbin Attacks The President Over “Chain Migration”! Democratic Senator Dick Durbin who first helped spread the rumor of Trump’s ‘sh*thole’ comments, attacked the President for using the term ‘chain migration’ because it’s ‘painful’ to black people. Chain migration is when someone comes into this country and tries to bring their family and everyone they know with them. However, according to Durbin, ‘chains’ remind black people of when they were brought here as slaves from Africa. “When it came to the issue of ‘chain migration,’ I said to the president: “Do you realize how painful that term is ...

Lindsey Graham to Americans: Your Country Belongs to the World by Neil Munro America is not owned by Americans and their children but is instead held by people all over the globe, according to a statement from amnesty advocate Sen. Lindsey Graham. “I’ve always believed that America is an idea [which is] not defined by its people but by its ideals,” Graham said in a press statement January 12 which sought to criticise President Donald Trump for describing some foreign countries as less pleasant than America, or as “shitholes.” Graham continued: The American ideal is embraced by people all over the globe. It was best said a long time ago, E Pluribus Unum – ...

Senator Rand Paul Speaks of ‘Living Hell’ After Vicious Attack by Leftist Neighbor January 8, 2018| by Donn Marten 2017 will go down in history as the year that political violence became acceptable to the left as well as to Democrats who refused to disavow it. It was the year of black-clad ANTIFA thugs beating up Trump supporters, the year that a deranged and angry Bernie Sanders supporter named James T. Hodgkinson tired to massacre the entire Republican congressional baseball team and the year that a sitting senator was viciously attacked from behind by a neighbor while mowing the lawn. Kentucky Senator Rand Paul was the victim of Rene Boucher who tackled him, ...

By Jessica Chasmar - The Washington Times - Friday, January 12, 2018 Outgoing Virginia Gov. Terry McAuliffe said Thursday that he would punch President Trump if he ever tried to “get in my space.” During an interview Thursday on MSNBC’s “Hardball,” host Chris Matthews asked the Virginia Democrat how he would react if Mr. Trump leaned over him during a debate, as he did with Democratic rival Hillary Clinton. (Mrs. Clinton later said that the then-presidential candidate used his size to intimidate her.) “What would you do in a debate with him if he tried that?” Mr. Matthews asked. “If he came over and leaned over back of you, what would you do?” ...

Clinton posted a tweet in which he denied a report that claims stolen Clinton Foundation donations paid for daughter Chelsea Clinton’s wedding. “No Clinton Foundation funds—dedicated to Haiti or otherwise—were used to pay for Chelsea’s wedding.

FLASHBACK: That Time Obama Called Libya A ‘S**t Show’ Benny Johnson 01/12/2018 Following President Trump’s Thursday comments, it’s worth noting that former President Obama called the African country of Libya a “shit show” just two years ago. The comments were recorded in an interview with The Atlantic. The wide-ranging interview was based on Obama’s foreign policy over his eight years in office. During one portion of the interview, Obama said described Libya as a “mess” to the interviewer but behind closed doors called the country a “shit show.” RELATED: According to the Atlantic: “So we actually executed this plan as well ...

Time magazine's new cover, showing Donald Trump's yellowish hair on fire in a cartoonish blaze, symbolizes how the media view the president as a hot mess. But some of the president's fiercest critics on the right are starting to recognize how their side’s animosity is burning out of control. The relentless negativity of the #NeverTrumpers actually helps him by making his detractors seem obsessed and unwilling to credit him for just about anything. They give the president a big ...

They are however spreading their failing and dying libertarian philosophy less as time goes by....thank the good Lord for that. While Ron Paul has never been able to deliver on his promises or to satisfy any of the Paultards’ expectations, a very small number of cultish supporters strive hard to keep his reactionary views and fading memory alive.

Are we on the slippery slope toward autocracy? David Atkins says things changed this week:In the year since Donald Trump moved into the White House, one of the key questions was how long the institutions of American democracy would hold up if he tried to create an authoritarian state centered around himself. For a long time things seemed to be largely OK: the institutions of state were mostly able to resist Trump’s incursions into their necessary roles and perform their duties more or less as intended. ….But all of that started to change this week….Republican Senators who began last year by pretending to want investigations into Russia’s interference in the election are ...
Did the FBI conspire to stop Trump?

The original question the FBI investigation of the Trump campaign was to answer was a simple one: Did he do it? Did Trump, or officials with his knowledge, collude with Vladimir Putin’s Russia to hack the emails of John Podesta and the DNC, and leak the contents to damage Hillary Clinton and elect Donald Trump? A year-and-a-half into the investigation, and, still, no “collusion” has been found. Yet the investigation goes on, at the demand of the never-Trump media and Beltway establishment. Hence, and understandably, suspicions have arisen. Are the investigators after the truth, or are they after Trump? Set aside the Trump-Putin conspiracy theory momentarily, and ...

Former Texas Rep. Ron Paul says a yearlong economic boom under President Trump is “a bit of an illusion” and that debt, inflation, and inequality could cause turmoil that benefits a “hardcore nucleus” of libertarians. The libertarian Republican leader told the Washington Examiner that Trump could face a strong challenger in the 2020 GOP primary, especially if “things are really much worse." “The big opening for us is the fact that this system is coming apart. We’re on the verge of something like what happened in ‘89 when the Soviet system just collapsed,” he said. “I’m just hoping our system comes apart as gracefully as the ...

With the passage of the GOP tax bill this week, the Trump administration has scored 81 major achievements in its first year, making good on campaign promises to provide significant tax cuts, boost U.S. energy production, and restore respect to the United States, according to the White House. And along the way, President Trump even outdid his own expectations and slashed at least 11 major legacy items of former President Barack Obama, including cracking down on the open border, slowing recognition of communist Cuba and effectively killing Obamacare by ending the mandate that everyone have health insurance or face a tax. According to the White House, the 81 accomplishments are in 12 major ...

The U.S. coal industry’s prospects have “brightened” in President Donald Trump’s first year in office, according to international energy analysts. Actions taken by the Trump administration to cut the coal country’s regulatory burden have “provided optimism” to the industry, that has been in decline in recent years, analysts wrote. “The mood in the coal industry in the United States brightened in 2017,” the International Energy Agency (IEA) reported in its latest global coal market report that makes projections for the next five years. It’s definitely been a comeback year for coal. Exports surged nearly 70 percent in the first ...

Alabama Senate Race: MILITARY BALLOTS May Give Roy Moore the Victory

So, leftists called Roy Moore crazy for not conceding the recent election in Alabama. But thanks to military of Alabama’s overwhelmingly support Moore, he might not be that crazy after all. According to a report by NewsMax: “Over 18,000 servicemen come from the great state of Alabama, and their absentee ballots just came in. This is bad news for Democrats, because Doug Jones’ chances aren’t looking good. According to the State Board of Elections, 16,323 votes came across for Roy Moore while only 1,130 soldiers voted for Jones.” While Moore hasn’t won yet, this does provide him some wiggle room. Further, voter fraud has been reported, as some Millennials stated ...
There Is Nothing More Despicable Than a Democrat

On a normal day, Democrats will endlessly lecture you in the most condescending fashion, making liberal use of the preface, “You see.” Because, of course, you don’t see, you are a nonbeliever, a “denier,” and therefore a deplorable, barely deserving of their passing glance, much less their particular attention. And that’s after they’ve lost both houses of Congress and the presidency. Now with the Moore mauling in Alabama and their plot to force Trump’s resignation, they are not nearly as nice. After sacrificing two of their pawns, the now onanistic Bill Clinton and the truly deplorable Al Franken, an oleaginous blob of despicability -- he of the ...

Democrat Representative Elijah Cummings spent 19 years practicing law and demands that the House Oversight Committee, of which he is ranking Democrat chair, is the proper place for hearing claims against the president. Cummings, whose Maryland congressional district is heavily gerrymandered to make him impossible to unseat, seeks to use the committee to make political hay of claims against Trump, rather than allowing an honest investigation into the claims. As Al Franken’s replacement is being named and John Conyers is vacating his seat, it seems that Democrats are pushing on the idea that Trump should be investigated as well. They have made the demand of Trey Gowdy, a Republican ...

NEW TEXT MESSAGES REVEAL EXTREME PARTISANSHIP, POSSIBLE CRIMINAL BEHAVIOR FROM FBI OFFICIALS. Text messages released by the Department of Justice Tuesday revealed an extreme anti-Trump bias by Peter Strzok, a former senior member of special counsel Robert Mueller’s election probe team. The texts also hint at the possibility that the James Comey-led FBI may have had a plan to illegally thwart Trump’s presidential ambitions. Following an internal Justice Department investigation, agent Strzok was quietly reassigned from his senior post at the FBI to a human resources position in the Bureau. It’s unclear at this time whether his text messages had anything to do with his ...

Is there a coverup going on in the Alabama Senate election that took place on Tuesday? On Monday, it was reported that Montgomery County Circuit Judge Roman Ashley Shaul issued an injunction in response to a lawsuit in which four Alabama voters argued that the state must save the records under state and federal law. "All counties employing digital ballot scanners in the Dec. 12, 2017 election are hereby ordered to set their voting machines to save all processed images in order to preserve all digital ballot images," Judge Shaul wrote in the order. "After hearing arguments and reviewing the filings, it appears that Plaintiffs and similarly situated voters would suffer ...

This is the awkwardest stretch of silence in cable news history.The polls are about to close in Alabama, where voters, at long last, will decide if they want to replace Jeff Sessions in the United States Senate with a credibly-accused child predator who has spent his career trafficking gleefully in every imaginable brand of bigotry, or a Democrat. I have no idea how the next few hours are going to play out. Polling a competitive Senate race in deep-red, never-competitive Alabama has proven to be an all-but-impossible task, and after 2016, even the thought of putting stock in early exit polls and/or watching the needle of that horrifying New York Times speedometer-style prognosticator ...
Mitch McConnell Is The Reason Doug Jones Is A Senator

While Mitch McConnell and his allies will try to blame conservatives for nominating Roy Moore, it’s important to remember that McConnell is the main reason Roy Moore was nominated. The moment it was clear there would be a Special Election to replace Jeff Sessions, McConnell and his PAC, Senate Leadership Fund (SLF) declared they would back Luther Strange and vowed to spend millions on his behalf. Strange was a flawed candidate from the jump. The circumstances around his appointment by scandal-ridden Governor Robert Bentley were sketchy at best, and rightly or wrongly, voters just never trusted him. Looking back, an establishment candidate like Strange, beset by issues surrounding his ...

The mystery super PAC that has poured more than $4 million into Alabama’s special Senate election on Tuesday is controlled by two of the Democrat’s largest super PACs — both of which are funded by Democratic megadonor George Soros. While Jones tries to appear detached from Washington special interests, a Politico report published late Monday revealed that mystery super PAC Highway 31 "is a joint project of two of the largest national Democratic super PACs — Senate Majority PAC and Priorities USA Action." Politico notes: Highway 31 was created in November, Federal Election Commission filings show. Though Birmingham lawyer Edward Still is listed as the ...
