National Day of Prayer, a hopeful pause among political storms

Today is the National Day of Prayer -- the completely nonpartisan, nondiscriminatory, unbiased National Day of Prayer. It's a day to shed the "D" pin, remove the "R" button. And yes, even today, that is possible.

Donald Trump’s approval hikes, amid all the crap

President Donald Trump's approval rating, just polled at 43 percent, is the highest for two years. That, amid all the political hit jobs, media attacks and leftist anti-White House rants. And all the campaigning Democrats go -- d'oh!

William Barr, the Democrats’ lynchpin to Donald Trump

The Washington Post published an opinion piece titled, "If William Barr refuses to testify, he should be impeached." Yes, let's impeach him. Impeach 'em all. Why not? After all, campaign season is kicking into high gear. Democrats need something to counter the roaring economy, the stellar jobs' numbers.

Bernie Sanders, socialist hypocrite (not to be redundant)

Socialists are almost always hypocrites because they almost always think they know better than the average bear and almost always tell others to do what they themselves refuse to do. Enter millionaire Bernie Sanders who wants Disney to give its "Avengers" profits to company workers who are paid on the lower scale. You first, Bernie.

The New York Times and its anti-Semitism problem

What the heck is going on at The New York Times? That's certainly a question worthy of answering. Anti-Semitism much? After publishing an anti-Semitic cartoon, then apologizing and removing it due to outcry -- but only after a few days -- the crackerjack editors of The Times replaced it with yet another anti-Semitic cartoon.

Back when Hollywood was great

Robert De Niro took the stage at the Not the White House Correspondents' Dinner in Washington, D.C., told the televised audience that he "f--ing love[d] fake news," and proceeded to bash President Donald Trump as a "lying scumbag" and more. Ah, Tinsel Town, U.S.A., circa 2019. Remember when Hollywood was great? Classy, even?

Beto ‘don’t call me Howdy Doody’ O’Rourke unveils $5 trillion Green plan

Oh boy, oh joy, Beto O'Rourke, the once-upon-a-time golden star of Democratic politics, has a new Green plan, and yes, it'll cost $5 trillion, but at the end of the day, the world will be saved. That Robert Francis -- he's no Howdy Doody. No matter what all those people say.

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez defends her Christianity from Kellyanne Conway

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, the socialist lawmaker from New York, lashed out at Kellyanne Conway on Twitter, accusing the White House counselor to the president of unfairly and unreasonably questioning her Christian faith on national television. This is somewhat astonishing. Socialists, after all, aren't really known for their faith.

On immigration, prideful politicians aren’t working for us

Gallup found in its most recent poll that Republican voters believe immigration is the "most important problem" facing America right now. This is how it's been for some time. Yet through the years, little changes. Why? Simply put, prideful politicians put their own interests first, and forget they work for voters.

Joe Scarborough’s shameful attack on Franklin Graham

Joe Scarborough of MSNBC fame may need ratings. But attacking Franklin Graham and the evangelist's Christian views should be the red line -- and not the fake and flimsy type of red line Barack Obama drew with Syria's unleashing of chemical weapons on its own people, either. A real one.

Joe Biden, 76, jumps in with ‘Trump is a racist’ guns blaring

Joe Biden jumped into the political race to the White House with a message of -- Donald Trump is racist? Not exactly the sort of inspiring call that brings you to your feet, hands a'clappin', feet a'stompin'. But OK, Charlottesville is good, too.

Even Hillary Clinton waves caution flag on impeachment

Hillary Clinton, in an op-ed published in The Washington Post, urged her fellow Democrats to find a better path to the White House and full congressional domination than simply pressing for impeach, impeach, impeach. Democrats: You know you're off the rails when even perennial rail-rider Hillary Clinton phones in the caution.

Bernie Sanders may have just bit the big one

This is the story of how Bernie Sanders, the socialist-minded senator from Vermont, took his crazy-minded socialism a bit too far and dropped a bomb right in the midst of his presidential campaign -- right in the middle of America's jail populations. Voting rights for Dzhokhar Tsarnaev? Even Cher goes, say what?

Rush Limbaugh makes the case: Hillary Clinton ‘needs to be in jail’

Rush Limbaugh, on "The Story" on Fox News with Martha MacCallum, said it's not President Donald Trump who has anything to worry about when it comes to the whole Russia investigation thing -- it's Hillary Clinton. She should be in jail, Limbaugh said. And a whole world of political watchers go -- absolutely.

Pete Buttigieg, hero to gays, enemy of truth

If Pete Buttigieg thinks the Bible is a book of personal interpretation, he's not just wrong. He's utterly blind. And by repeating that utterly blind message on his public platform, he's selling a deception to others.

Democrats’ ridiculous race of giveaways

The larger the field of Democratic candidates becomes, the more Americans are treated to promises of free stuff. It's become a race of giveaways. Where will it end? Nobody knows. This is one merry-go-round that shows no signs of slowing.

America’s growing fatigue with Mueller nonsense

Democrats are rapidly emerging as Republicans' best hope for 2020. Why? They're failing to see how fed up Americans are getting with the whole "Donald Trump did it" line of messaging from the left, despite the far more factual "Donald Trump didn't do it" special counsel report from Robert Mueller.

Bill de Blasio, the SUV-driving man with the fault-finding Big Green plan

Mayor Bill de Blasio, in an appearance on "Morning Joe" on MSNBC to explain his decision to go Green New Deal in New York City and switch entirely to renewable energy within the next five years, faltered when pressed on his own gas-guzzling SUV use. And such is the way of the radical environmentalist: Do as I say, not as I do.

Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton tip anti-Christian ‘Easter worshippers’ hats

Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton avoided using the word "Christians" while commenting on Twitter about the horrific attacks on Christians on Easter Sunday in Sri Lanka that left hundreds dead and injured. Instead, the ex-prez and former secretary of state called the victims "Easter worshippers."

Mueller investigation’s missed opportunities: FISA, law enforcement reform

Democrats have made it clear they're not going to let go the contents of Robert Mueller's report without giving it the full impeachment treatment. This is unfortunate. The Mueller investigation gives opportunities for the parties to come together -- on FISA and on law enforcement's treatment of innocent-until-proven guilty suspects.
