Jennings responded quickly:  “With all due respect to my friend Don...

It has been claimed that he has easily been manipulated into doing things he did not understand. But this wasn’t about our current president, nor the one before him. Nor the one before him.  It was about our first president, George Washington, and his relationship with his trusted Secretary of the Treasury, Alexander Hamilton. Those charges were made by esteemed politicians, namely Thomas Jeffe...

At the White House Correspondents' Dinner last week, President Trump got in several zingers about the media. But my favorite was a top-notch comedy moment when the President compared CNN reporter Kaitlin Collins to the Bud Light female impersonator Dylan Mulvaney. On TV, you could see reactions of many diners, who were wide-eyed and suppressing smiles. Zing!  I cherished the moment. For decades, the corporate media has favored the democrats, or whatever they are now, and stigmatized every republican. Well, John McCain received some favorable treat...

What Every Voter Should Know The United States Senate The 55 delegates who created the Constitution of the United States were some of the best-educated people of their time. For years, they knew that our nation needed a new constitution, so they studied for that day.  History had taught these men how popular pressures, driven by greed and the desire for benefits from the treasury, could erode the prudent design of any government and drive it to ruin.   Those popular press...

It is worth reading.   [begin article] “He built his own desk. Walnut, hand-cut, assembled with his own two hands — because long before he was a face on television, Andy Rooney was a man who liked making things and saying things plainly. But this story doesn't start at that desk. It starts seventeen thousand feet above Germany, in subzero air, aboard a...

It was the allegations that did that, not the prosecution, not a preponderance of evidence, but just the charges that he had done it.   With this event, the Democrats are laying a foundation for future actions.  Consider this: How many times have they accused Republicans of rape, especially if they are against nominees to th...
