Eric Trump — rightly — slams vicious left as ‘not even people’

Eric Trump, following in his father's footsteps, issued some blunt talk about the very vicious left and its very vicious hatred -- and now, predictably enough, his comments are being a bit skewed, no doubt, in order to drum up some of that vicious leftist hatred to generate even more anti-Trump headlines. Sigh. It's such a cycle of hatred we live in right now in America. Eric Trump is right.

Iran under siege as ISIS stages Ramadan terror

ISIS claimed responsibility for a couple of terror attacks on the symbolic sites on Tehran's parliament and at the tomb of Ayatollah Khomeini. It's Ramadan, radical Islam style, once again.

Joe Scarborough makes a deranged case for Donald Trump to go

Joe Scarborough just can't help himself when it comes to criticizing President Donald Trump. On his most recent show, the former Republican congressman suggested Trump was deranged, and that Congress ought to consider removing him -- an apparent hat tip to the long-running Democratic Party's call to impeach.

Bill Maher, the N-word and the hypocrisy of left

If Bill Maher were Tim Allen, he'd be toast right now. Why? Maher, who's a leftist, dropped the N-word on a recent HBO broadcast, sparked a firestorm, but apologized and all's right with the world. Had a conservative comedian like Allen done the same, the forgiveness wouldn't be so rapid in coming.

U.S. rates among cleanest on UN’s own pollution list

Well, well, well, isn't this a bit embarrassing for the climate change crowd. The United States, it seems, isn't the big bad polluter of the world the leftists in the environmental movement would have believed. Nope -- not even close.

2nd Amendment saves, as Oklahoman shoots babies’ would-be killer

Yes, indeed, the Second Amendment does save. The latest instance of a gun owner saving a potential victim from a would-be crime comes by way Oklahoma, where a Poteau resident, acting quickly, shot and killed a neighbor who was trying to drown his twin, 3-month-old babies in a bathtub.

Reza Aslan, CNN’s go-to religious guy, tweets Trump’s ‘s—t’

This is religion, lefty style. CNN host Reza Aslan, the left's go-to guy for punditry on all-all-things religious, spiritual and Jesus in nature, took to Twitter to denounce President Donald Trump's reaction to the London terror bombings by calling the White House chief a -- wait for it, wait for it -- a "piece of s--t."

Portland protests show utter hatred of left

A rally in Portland, Oregon, aimed at showing support for President Donald Trump -- and for free speech -- turned nasty and violent after the anti-crowd turned out in full force, carting weapons, bent on creating chaos. And let the media spin begin. The Washington Post kicked it off this way, with a blaring headline that read: "Right-wing free speech rally draws massive counterprotests in Portland."

The Libya connection in the Manchester concert bombing and Friday’s attack on Christians in Egypt has shone a light on the threat posed by militant Islamic groups that have taken advantage of lawlessness in the troubled North African nation to put down roots, recruit fighters and export jihadists to cause death and carnage elsewhere.

Why America won’t save the Christians

Saving Christians in overseas' spots from religious-based persecution and murder would require leaders in America to admit some hard political truths -- truths that ultimately would pit cherished First Amendment freedoms against the realities of Islam.

Evergreen State College, racked by racism, shuts over threat

Evergreen State College, the Olympia, Washington, supposed place of higher learning that's been turned into little more than a playground for radical leftist activists, has been temporarily shut, after receiving a threat phoned in to law enforcement. Probably the best thing that's happened to the school for a long time.

Kathy Griffin, of bloody Trump head fame, now plays victim

Kathy Griffin, the sometimes comedian who was just ousted from her sometime CNN hosting slot -- and fired from New Year's Eve broadcasting duties -- after she posed for pictures while holding a faux bloodied head of President Donald Trump, may have apologized for her outrageous behavior. But now? She's playing the victim.

Judicial Watch sues for George Soros funding records

Judicial Watch just launched a lawsuit against the U.S. Department of State and the U.S. Agency for International Development, USAID, for records related to taxpayer funding of George Soror-tied political activities. Specifically, the watchdog group wants to know how much of America's tax dollars have been sent to the Open Society Foundation's Albania offices, or FOSA.

MSNBC dings HIllary Clinton for Russian ‘conspiracy theory’

On a recent MSNBC "Rachel Maddow Show" broadcast, NBC's Andrea Mitchell -- a lover of all things left-leaning, if ever there was one -- publicly chided Clinton for blaming her loss on Russia. Wow. When you lose the adoration of the left, there's really no where else to turn.

This screen grab shows a tweet from President Donald Trump which has social media trying to find a meaning in the mysterious term “covfefe.” Trump tweeted just after midnight Eastern time on Wednesday, May 31, 2017: “Despite the constant negative press covfefe.” The tweet immediately went viral and became one of the president’s more popular posts before it was taken down after nearly six hours online. Trump poked fun at the typo, tweeting, “Who can figure out the true meaning of "covfefe" ??? Enjoy!” (AP Photo)

‘Covfefe’ tweet leads media to spin Donald Trump’s unfit to lead

Just when you think "covfefe" had fallen from the media cycle -- and bam, CNN brings it back, only this time with a politically partisan spin that somehow manages to take a typo and turn it into a failure of leadership. Want to know why President Donald Trump is unfit to lead? "Covfefe," according to CNN.
