Sen. Kamala D. Harris

Kamala Harris: ‘She’s running for president. Take it to the bank’

Democrats are in a tizzy about their latest and brightest prospect for the 2020 White House -- Kamala Harris, the senator from California. Make way for the next social justice warrior. Harris, a la Eric Holder, a la Barack Obama, is a far leftist with a vision of America as an inherently racist, unjust, unfair, misogynist nation.

Al Gore’s frowny face: ‘I was wrong’ on Trump

Al "Hanging Chad-Man' Gore, former failed presidential candidate and former -- equally as failed, some would say -- vice president, has come crawling out of his air conditioned mansion to pick up his climate change manual once again and chide President Donald Trump on national television. His beef? It's hot -- damn hot.

White House dead wrong on asset forfeitures

President Donald Trump may be doing a lot of good for America, particularly in terms of putting the nation first on the international stage and its citizens, not special interests, first in the domestic arena. But on asset forfeiture laws, this White House is wrong. Dead wrong, completely wrong, egregiously wrong.

Un-American court demands Rowan County, North Carolina, quit praying

The U.S. Court of Appeals for the 4th Circuit ruled 10-5 that Rowan County, North Carolina, commissioners couldn't open their government sessions with prayer. What a travesty for America, the country English writer and philosopher Gilbert Keith "G.K." Chesterton once referred to as "the only nation in the world that is founded on a creed," a creed that "clearly names the Creator as the ultimate authority.'

Caitlyn Jenner on mission to sensitize GOP

The Jenner formerly known as Bruce, but name-changed to Caitlyn, is on a mission to change the Republican Party and make its members more sensitive to LGBT issues. That's fine and dandy. But sensitive shouldn't mean lying.

Delta’s ticked — but Ann Coulter’s right

Ann Coulter unleashed a storm of fiery tweets against Delta over a switched seat. And an offended Delta tried to defend itself. But Coulter's quite right and moreover, Americans are sick of being treated by airlines like chattel.

Social Security gender war exposes bureaucratic bloat

Talk about a bureaucratic nightmare. Stacy Harp, who hosts Bible News Radio with her husband, Randall Harp, is just trying to transfer the Social Security payments for her father, Clayton Perrotte, from Florida to Tennessee. But she can't, because a government error changed her dad's gender from male to female.

American Eagle hat tips Islam with denim hijab for sale

American Eagle is reaching out to the Muslim community and offering up a denim hijab for sale at its online locations. So much for the American in the Eagle. Apparently, a hijab is now considered traditional American garb?

Franklin Graham’s right — ‘socialized medicine’ sucks

Worldwide evangelist Franklin Graham cut to the chase about the Charlie Gard vs. Government life-and-death case that's being played out in U.K. courts right now, putting it plainly that parents ought to have the final say over their infants' health care -- not bottom-line bureaucrats feeding into their socialist system. In other words: Socialized medical care sucks.

President Donald Trump and France's Emmanuel Macron may be the world's most unlikely political odd couple.

Trump impeachment article brought to House — LOL

Reps. Brad Sherman of California and Al Green of Texas have brought forward a formal article of impeachment against President Donald Trump for "high crimes and misdemeanors." There's a story about monkeys here that seems applicable.

Mental health sick days a sign of America’s wussification

There's this story that's been going around the media for a few days now that paints a picture of a sympathetic boss gently cheering on his absent employee for letting him know she's missing work due to "focus" on her "mental health." Let's just nip this crazy in the bud. This is a mark of America's wussification -- nothing to cheer.
