NAACP, like a rapist blames a victim, finger-points at Donald Trump

The interim president and CEO of the NAACP, Derrick Johnson, said in a speech at the National Press Club that Americans could bank on the fact that more Charlottesville protests were a'coming, and a'coming fast -- and it's all President Donald Trump's fault. The logic strikes as eerily similar to a rapist's defense -- to blame the victim.

Illinois Gov. Bruce Rauner smiles while surrounded by law enforcement officials and immigrant rights activists in Chicago's Pilsen neighborhood Monday, Aug. 28, 2017, after signing legislation that will limit how local and state police can cooperate with federal immigration authorities.

Counterterrorism, Italy-style: Fewer barricades, more pretty trees

One of Italy's foremost architects, Stefano Boeri, has offered up a possible solution for the government to fend off Islamic terror attacks -- and it goes like this: Fewer cement barricades. More flower pots and trees. Why? Because frankly, Boeri asserts, fighting terror doesn't have to be aesthetically offensive.

Sebastian Gorka’s right: Dear Trump, don’t be an Obama on Islamic terror

Sebastian Gorka's resignation letter to President Donald Trump, printed in full by Breitbart, was a blunt call for a White House return to the Make America Great Again principles that ushered in this administration in the first place. And forefront to that MAGA message is to call out Islamic terrorism as -- well, Islamic terrorism.

Al Sharpton goes hypocritical to finger-wag America’s ‘moral trouble’

The Rev. Al Sharpton, a face of the far left who's been curiously quiet of late, has suddenly resurfaced in the public sphere to lead up a movement to -- what else -- bash President Donald Trump. That he did it by wagging fingers at the supposed moral decline of America is laughable.

Dems crow, post-Sebastian Gorka ouster: ‘Two white nationalists down’

Democrats are having such a field day with President Donald Trump's administration -- winning, chip by chip, post-Charlottesville, a public relations battle that paints this White House in the most vulgar and ugliest of terms -- they're making a fundraising pitch off their success.

Nancy Pelosi’s dad helped dedicate Confederate monument

Turns out House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, the same woman who rode the back of the Charlottesville bus to deem dozens of Capitol Hill statues as offensive and President Donald Trump, as racist, has a dad who -- get this -- actually helped dedicate a Confederate-tied statue.

Trump coded kiss-off letter the work of childish left

What are we, 9? That's the question that pops to mind when discovering the coded message contained in Daniel Kammen's resignation letter to President Donald Trump -- a code that spells out the word "impeach."

This Aug. 17, 2017 image from video shows a Confederate flag, right, displayed alongside an Israeli flag and a colonial-era American one in the seventh-floor windows of an apartment in the East Village neighborhood of New York. The flags had been there for over a year, and illuminated at night, but after an Aug. 12 white nationalist rally to preserve a Confederate statue in Charlottesville, Va., spiraled into violence the flags were met with hurled rocks, a punched-out window, a tarp hung over them and legal action before being removed.

Charlottesville fallout: Confederate flag sales hike

A company that makes Confederate flags, Alabama Flag & Banner, reported an increase in sales post-Charlottesville -- post-leftist mayhem and madness over monuments and statues that tell our nation's history.
