Via the Washington Times: There’s been no word so far from Barbra Streisand on whether she will make good on her pledge to leave the country, but she does want President Obama to bypass the Senate and appoint a Supreme Court justice before leaving office. Ms. Streisand is championing a White House “We the People” […]

You only pardon the guilty… Speaking at President Gerald Ford’s alma mater, The Rev. Jesse Jackson called for President Obama to issue a blanket pardon to Hillary Clinton before he leaves office, just like Ford did for Richard Nixon. Stopping short of saying Clinton did anything wrong, Jackson told a large crowd of University of

I wonder if the Democrats would be so eager to get rid of the Electoral College if Trump had won the popular vote, but Clinton had won the Electoral Vote?

Obama will not add any restriction to the drone program that will soon be under the command of Trump. Under Obama, the president gained the ability to target people with drones overseas, including American citizens.  Well done, liberals! You were happy with a Democrat murdering Americans overseas.

California pays 218,667 public sector employees over a $100,000 salary. The wages of those 218,667 employees cost taxpayers $35 billion every year. Californians are still trying to tax themselves into prosperity. How’s that working out for you?  Open the Books is back with another important government transparency report. This time, the organization looked closely at California payrolls,

The House has passed a bill that will create a Concrete Masonry Products Board and place a tax on the concrete industry. Monday night, the Republican-controlled House voted in favor of a tax on concrete to placate special interests in Washington D.C.

Dems will lose committee seats.  The loss of four legislative seats was disappointing for Idaho Democrats, but the results of last week’s presidential race may have greater influence over what gets done – or not done – next session. Several key lawmakers discussed the election results during a stop at Lewis-Clark State College Monday. Their

“But Oregon environmentalists are concerned”.  That’s because they would prefer to watch it burn.  What happened to all the Conservationists?  EUGENE, Ore. – When he visited Eugene last spring, Donald Trump promised to revive Oregon’s timber industry, which for decades has been hamstrung by severe curbs against logging in federal forests west of the Cascades

BELLEVUE, Wash. – A florist who was sued for refusing to provide services for a same sex-wedding says she was exercising her First Amendment rights, but justices from Washington’s Supreme Court questioned whether ruling in her favor would mean other businesses could turn away customers based on racial or other grounds. The court heard arguments Tuesday

She’s the best thing that Republicans have going for them in the House!  Here’s the question: would she step aside for the good of the Democrat Party? Or for her own ego stay at the helm?  House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi received back-handed praise Monday from House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy. “I kind of like

Good luck with that. The smaller states will never lose their constitutional right for representation. The Electoral College prevents a few cities from controlling the entire USA.  It also belies her ignorance of the USA as a Constitutional Republic. The founding fathers never wanted a democracy and were rightfully fearful of it.  Democratic Sen. Barbara Boxer

“No Child Left Behind to be replaced with new education standards” The best thing that they could do would be to dismantle the Federal Department of Education completely and leave it to the states. Education in the USA was so much better before the DoE was brought into existence.  After 15 years of No Child

Via the UK Daily Mail:    Today , for the second time in five months, a left-wing elite paid the price of ignoring, for many years, the warnings of civilised and tolerant conservatives. I cannot tell you how frustrating it has been, when trying to debate politics with readers of the Guardian and the New

One common criticism of billionaire businessman and presidential candidate Donald Trump is that he far too often speaks in vague generalities and rarely offers specifics about where he stands on the issues.

The President of Oklahoma Wesleyan University gave a lecture to students they’ll never forget. Recently a student complained about a sermon that made him feel guilty and blamed the school for making students feel uncomfortable. This is not uncommon. Many universities now are so afraid of offending even one student, that political correctness has run

So, Donald Trump won the presidential election, and colleges and universities around the country are predictably canceling classes and exams because students are predictably too devastated to be able to do their schoolwork. It’s everywhere. A professor at University of Michigan postponed an exam after too many students complained about their “very serious” stress. Columbia

Glenn Greenwald is good as always. He goes thru the parallels between Brexit and Trump’s election, then comes up with three pathologies:  Democrats have already begun flailing around trying to blame anyone and everyone they can find — everyone except themselves — for last night’s crushing defeat of their party. That racism, misogyny, and xenophobia
