"Fake news" is a term that has become all too commonplace. Sometimes we're talking about a genuine piece of disinformation. Other times, fake news means simply a news report with which a politician does not agree.
President Trump's recent decision to cancel secret negotiations with the Taliban at Camp David, revoking an offer to withdraw U.S. troops, came at the right time from the strategic U.S. perspective.
A widely reported poll from Fox News puts national favor for an impeachment of President Donald Trump at 51%. But this same poll then asks participants to name their favorite among a list of people -- to express either favorable or unfavorable opinion of each -- and guess who wins in a field of nine? Trump. Schizophrenia, anyone?
The title "Everything Inside" could not be more apt for this collection of eight short stories that expose the hidden machinery inside all of us -- those intricate psychosocial cogs and wheels and power supplies that make us what we are.
With the exception of George H.W. Bush, every president in the last four decades has had a military debacle. Donald Trump is on the verge of one. He can still avoid it, but time is running out.
Eric Holder may be the one person most responsible for the impeachment inquiry into President Donald Trump. Mr. Holder is responsible for this partisan witch hunt because of his work to put House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and the rest of the socialist-Democrats into the majority.
A nearly insignificant reference on the U.S.-Ukraine Business Council's webpage, under the heading of Washington Watch No. 4, reads this way: "Ukrainian efforts to sabotage Trump backfire -- Kiev officials are scrambling to make amends with the president-elect after quietly working to boost Clinton." That's interesting.
Joe Biden's campaign team has all the markings of entering panic mode. And really, why shouldn't Team Biden feel that way? It's like 2016 all over again, when heir apparent Hillary Clinton thought she had a cake walk to the White House. Biden's approach on the campaign trail has been similarly self-entitled.
It's not a popular message for an increasingly secular country. But it's an important one. Read the Bible. Get back to biblical principles. It's the one message that could actually and ultimately cure the country's STD problem.
This 2019 team has a personality the others did not -- one built for adversity. Those previous four Nationals postseason teams coasted to division titles. This team, as Martinez has said so often, has essentially played a wild card game every day since that 19-31 start.
A league that has painstakingly built a reputation for social awareness for the briefest of moments looked no different than any other corporation chasing money in China. A league that embraces personal freedom seemed unable to understand that freedom means something very different in China.
Bill Callahan, in his initial comments Monday as Washington Redskins interim coach, said rookie quarterback Dwayne Haskins "will be in the lineup at some point in time, whether it's this year or next year."
Let me see if I understand the Democratic position on impeachment: They have begun an impeachment inquiry because House Speaker Nancy Pelosi says so. The House of Representatives has not authorized it.
Perhaps unsurprisingly, Congress and the White House are at yet another constitutional deadlock, this time over how the United States should proceed in the ongoing civil war in Syria.
We need to protect Americans from surprise medical bills. Unfortunately, North Caorlina State Sen. Todd Johnson's favored approach does not solve the problem ("Washington must solve the surprise medical billing crisis," Web, Oct. 3). Instead, it sets up a new bureaucracy that leaves Americans vulnerable to out-of-control health care prices.
The drip, drip, drip of insults hurled at President Trump by the political left and some on the right leaves one to wonder, Why? The investigations of Attorney General William Barr, U.S. Attorney John Durham as well as the Department of Justice Inspector General Michael Horowitz are the key to understanding what is really going on here.
The world now knows that a so-called whistleblower complaint has ignited a partisan fury in America. At the center of the controversy is the highly-partisan and often untruthful Rep. Adam Schiff. Based on what is known so far, because of the actions of Adam Schiff, in a just world, the whistleblower complaint would be thrown out.
The Supreme Court of the United States kicks off a new session this week, and there are no shortage of high profile issues under consideration on their docket, including abortion, gun control and gay/transgender issues.
Our ancestors were builders and pioneers and mostly fearless. We are regulators, auditors, bureaucrats, adjudicators, censors, critics, plaintiffs, defendants, social media junkies and thin-skinned scolds.
This is a curious claim for Brooke Nevils to make; a rape by Matt Lauer that led to a longer term romance, and all. But no matter who's telling the truth, who's not, there are lessons here that can be learned. Particularly, for women.
