Did Democrats fall into an impeachment trap with President Trump like Republicans did with President Bill Clinton, whose power and influence increased in the wake of their failure to convict and remove him from office? Can the Constitution survive the charade of using impeachment as Plan B when your party loses the election?
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi threatens President Trump with new obstruction of Congress charges if the White House fails to submit to subpoenas from House committees as part of the impeachment inquiry. But even if Democrats manage to impeach Trump, and a Senate super-majority removes him from office, could he still get reelected in 2020?
In another random act of kindness that alarms and shames Democrats, Scott Presler leads a couple hundred volunteers to clean up a massive, rat-infested, plague-ridden garbage pile in Los Angeles…for free.
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) and Rep. Ayanna Pressley (D-MA) make a video to push repeal of the Hyde Amendment, which bans use of federal tax money to pay for abortions.
New York Times “conservative” columnist David Brooks makes the never-Trump case against impeaching the president. Why not just let Trump lose, rather than throw fuel on the fire of his devoted base?
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi announces an impeachment inquiry against President Trump. Bill Whittle thinks she has just handed the president a 2020 election victory. But how does a president under impeachment run a campaign?
Saturday Night Live reportedly believed that comedian Shane Gillis would appeal to conservatives, so they hired him in a shameless play for a bigger audience going into the 45th season of the once-great sketch-comedy show. Then they fired Gillis within hours.
President Donald Trump orders the release of the transcript of his July 25 phone call with Ukraine President Voldymyr Zelensky, believing it clears him of an anonymous whistle-blower’s accusations of self-dealing. Democrats in Congress read the same transcript and believe it proves Trump used the power of his office to pressure a foreign leader to help his own reelection campaign.
Did President Trump commit impeachable offenses when he pressed Ukraine’s president to probe Hunter Biden for corruption? Bill Whittle doesn’t understand all of the fuss, and sees a larger pattern of Democrats attempting to disenfranchise the people who elected President Trump.
An objective observer would think the Democrat presidential candidates are committing electoral suicide after their performances in recent debates. On guns, climate, immigration, health care and more, they’ve staked out extreme Progressive positions which will dog their eventual nominee in the general election contest. Will even one candidate get off the Left-wing crazy train before it goes completely off the rails?
U.S.-led military coalition, with help from Iraqi Counter-Terrorism forces, carpet bombs what may be the last major concentration of ISIS fighters — the previously-dominant “Islamic State,” reduced to a desperate remnant, hiding on an island in the middle of a river. In seconds the ISIS refuge became an island of fire.
Saudi Arabian Aramco oil facilities hit by drones and missiles — allegedly from Iran — leaving U.S. President Donald Trump with no good foreign policy choices. If Saudi Arabia strikes back, it will do so with U.S. weaponry, but should it be with U.S. cooperation, support or troops?
The Washington Post says Democrat presidential candidates have deep policy divisions, but do policies even matter in a battle with incumbent Republican President Donald Trump, the post-policy president?
President Trump’s punitive tariffs on China lead to $30 billion in new farm bailouts, with no end in sight for these growing subsidies. Will Congress expand funding when the agriculture subsidies hit the legal ceiling this fall? What’s the end game for the president’s trade negotiations? Is it better to have American farmers dependent upon China or upon U.S. taxpayers? Has massive borrowing made the U.S. the richest/poorest country in the world?
Stanley B. Greenberg, pollster and political consultant to both Bill and Hillary Clinton, says demographic forces will kill the Republican Party in the 2020 election. His new book — R.I.P. G.O.P. — declares the party D.O.A., as the Democratic Party brings a message of hope for the “New America.” Does President Trump dismiss Greenberg’s claims only at his own peril?
