Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell is poised to get Democrats on record with the "Green New Deal" by forcing a vote. It should be interesting. Some Dems have signed on; many others have stayed silent, no doubt realizing the mocking they'll take from the saner citizens of the nation for supporting such a delusional plan.
Sen. Bernie Sanders announced his campaign for president on "This Morning" on CBS -- and within minutes, he was already raising eyebrows about his ability to stick with the truth. It's not good to kick off a campaign already branded a liar.
A survey from NPR/PBS NewsHour/Marist found 85 percent of Republicans say they're A-OK with President Donald Trump's declaration of a national emergency to build a border wall.
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, the socialist with the mostest, unleashed a new wave of fire and fury against this White House, telling a listening America that President Donald Trump's push for border protection, like, is nothing but "a moral abomination," like because it like reminds of like, the Berlin Wall and all. Like wow.
Here's something you won't read about every day -- a journalist in the mainstream media speaking publicly about the left-leaning bias of the mainstream media. But that's what Lara Logan, who worked for years as a foreign correspondent for CBS, just did. Somebody give this woman a gold star.
President Donald Trump, doing as he does, doing as he always does, took to Twitter to express his displeasure with a "Saturday Night Live" skit that mocked him. And for that, Alec Baldwin, who plays Trump on "SNL," wondered: Did the president threaten my safety? Sorry, Baldwin. Free speech rights run both ways.
So President Donald Trump announced he was poised to declare a national emergency at the border, setting leftist tongues a-waggin' about the "egregious" lines of power he was crossing, and "egregious" bypass of Congress he was committing, and "egregious" political precedents he was setting. Hmm. Can you say Barack Obama?
Company executives told Bloomberg News that they're considering cutting from their pages any news that undercuts vaccinations -- meaning, anyone who disagrees with the government about the need to vaccinate kids will see one of their key platforms completely shuttered.
No Republican ought to support this gun control measure. Those who do are only doing the Democrats' bidding.
Eric Holder, who served as attorney general under Barack Obama, announced his mulling of a presidential campaign. Run, Eric, run. Americans are still waiting for answers to certain Justice Department issues from the Obama years -- and what better way to get them finally answered than during a presidential campaign vetting?
Once again, headlines are warning of a government shutdown if Congress and the White House can't strike a deal on border security. But this shutdown, if it comes, will be a public relations win for President Donald Trump.
Without a doubt, Hollywood's Chris Pratt is an anomaly. He's not only a Christian in Hollywood. He's an open Christian in an anti-Christian Hollywood crowd -- and just recently, he took that Christian message to Stephen Colbert on "The Late Show," of all places.
The editorial staff of The Washington Post called on Virginia's Ralph Northam to resign from his governor's seat.
All eyes may be on Virginia and its gubernatorial blackface scandal right now -- but really, the juicier story is watching members of the media duck and dodge for the Democrats caught between a rock and a racist place. It's getting confusing to keep track of when blackface is racist, when it's not and just whom we're supposed to hate.
The Survivors Network of those Abused by Priests, SNAP, is holding a summit this week to press Pope Francis into taking stronger action against clergy members who commit acts of sexual abuse. Well and good. But a better course of action would be for the Catholic Church to open its priestly ranks to marriage.
In his State of the Union, President Donald Trump managed to do what political watchers wouldn't have predicted possible just a few short hours before his opening words -- and that's draw together the chamber, the Democrats and Republicans, the country. He made Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez smile and applaud, for crying out loud.
President Donald Trump, by announcing withdrawals in December and by standing by that decision this week, is simply recognizing the utter irrationality of putting more U.S. troops in harm's way for reasons that are largely unclear.
A doctoral student from California has filed a similar complaint against Harvard, claiming "campus gender politics" at the Ivy school have created a "hostile environment" for males. This is called turning the tables on the liberals.
Note to Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez: Americans, by and large, don't care if billionaires have billions of bucks.
Virginia Gov. Ralph Northam is a pediatric neurologist -- a doctor who treats children who are suffering from problems with their nervous systems. But after hearing his defense of third-trimester abortion, truly, here's a medical professional who shouldn't be allowed anywhere near kids.
