Donald Trump is to Roseanne Barr like Barack Obama is to Kathy Griffin

Roseanne Barr mistakenly fired off a racist tweet aimed at Valerie Jarrett and now the left is crowing, "See? See? This is what happens when you have Donald Trump in the White House." Stuff and nonsense. Trump is not to blame for Barr -- just as Barack Obama, say, can't be faulted for Kathy Griffin.

Maryland researchers say they discovered ‘Holy Grail’ of machine learning

A team of researchers from Maryland say they've invented a general artificial intelligence way for machines to identify and process 3-D images that doesn't require humans to go through the tedium of inputting specific information that accounts for each and every instance, scenario, difference, change and category that could crop up.

Chelsea Clinton, a perfect example of why left is Not Real American

Chelsea Clinton, daughter of the president who was impeached for perjury and obstruction of justice, nonetheless found the nerve to tell an overseas newspaper, The Guardian, that Donald Trump is not only less than presidential -- but he's also less than American.

God-given, not government granted, guides Second Amendment

Patrick Ryan, a Democrat running for Congress in New York, told a CNN audience that one of his political platforms is to put into effect strict limits on the Second Amendment because the First Amendment comes with limits, so why not the second, as well?

Spying, schmying, fact is — perception is reality

Former intel guy James Clapper told Joy Behar, co-host of "The View," the FBI was not spying on then-candidate Donald Trump, but rather only Russians, and that yada yada, there's nothing to see here folks, go home. But let's hold up the horses, just a bit. After all, in dictionary-speak, a spy's a spy's a spy.

Alexa? Why are you recording me, Alexa?

A husband in Oregon recently received a strange telephone call from his boss that went like this: Unplug your Alexa. You're being hacked. Except he wasn't being hacked. His Amazon Echo device had actually recorded conversations between the man and his wife, and then sent them along to the man's boss as audio file attachments.

FDA’s pitiful, politicized press to pull baby teething meds from market

The Food and Drug Administration issued parents some stern warnings about teething medicines for their babies, and simultaneously told manufacturers and retailers that if they didn't "voluntarily" stop selling the product to the tiny toddler demographic, they would face legal action from the feds. Voluntary compliance -- gotta love the federal definition of that, yes?

Roger Goodell gets one right

Roger Goodell, NFL commissioner, has sparked some players' union backlash by announcing those who want to bend knees during this season's game-time playing of the national anthem may do so -- but from the locker room, not the field. But really, Goodell got it right. Finally.

Donald Trump vows not to sign border bill without ‘real wall’

President Donald Trump, speaking to Fox News' "Fox & Friends" co-host Brian Kilmeade in an exclusive interview, vowed border-related bills weaving through Congress that don't include provisions to fund and build a "real wall" won't meet with his approval, and ultimately, won't pass his White House desk. Take a memo, Democrats and soft-on-border-control Republicans.

Democrats, desperate, face doozy of election fight

Democrats, according to recent polls, face what could kindly be called an uphill election-time battle. Kindly. More to truth, they're facing a Chimborazo climb, so dubbed in recognition of the world's highest peak -- yes, higher even than Mount Everest.

Tomi Lahren assaulted — and even Kathy Griffin rises to her defense

Tomi Lahren, Fox News contributor and bold-to-the-point-of-brash political pundit, was verbally assaulted and physically hit with the contents of a drink by a bunch of angry brunchers at a Minneapolis restaurant. And get this: Even Kathy Griffin says that's not "cool."

Mike Pompeo, fighting the good fight, naysayers be danged

Alphabet ‘smart nappy’ notion an example of tech overkill

Alphabet, the parent company of Google, has filed for a patent via its Verily division that will tell parents, by way of technology, when their diapered babies have gone to the bathroom. This is a solid example of When Technology Goes Overboard.

Jon Meacham, presidential historian, newest shill to predict impeachment for Donald Trump

Jon Meacham, a presidential historian who has a pretty impressive background, as far as writers go, anyway, took to national television to predict: Donald Trump will be impeached. Well, with all due respect to Meacham, his Pulitzer for a biography of Andrew Jackson, his executive stints at Random House and his many, many writing contributions to The New York Times and other left-leaning publications -- he's full of it.

Donald Trump: ‘Drain the Swamp!’ And he is

President Donald Trump is poised to officially demand a federal investigation into whether the Department of Justice "infiltrated or surveilled the Trump Campaign for Political Purposes," as he put it. And that means, once again, he is putting his mockers to shame.
