Donald Trump’s Pakistan tweet reminds: This is the new America

President Donald Trump opened 2018 with a stark reminder of why he's not Barack Obama -- why America is not content to sit idly by and talk, talk, talk while getting screwed, screwed, screwed.

Donald Trump wrongfully fingered for failed race relations

Americans, fully 60 percent of them, say President Donald Trump's White House has ushered in a new state of worsened race relations around the country, according to a new Pew Research Center survey. But that viewpoint is not exactly based on fact. The numbers only tell half the story.

Jim Jordan’s subpoena quest for FBI, DOJ anti-Trump truths

Thank goodness for Rep. Jim Jordan -- yes? He's the Ohio guy on Capitol Hill right now really gunning for the behind-scenes on the whole Russia collusion so-far sham investigation into Team Trump to explain itself -- to explain why, oh why, all these uncomfortable federal investigators' biases keep on popping. And he's helping to prepare the subpoenas as we speak.

Facebook’s facial ID technology — unnerving and creepy

Facebook, as many may or may not be aware, has launched a new facial recognition platform called Photo Review that gives an alert to those whose faces show up in new posts. Why? Or better yet -- remember PRISM?

Columbia, S.C., on cusp of OK-ing useless bump stock ban

Columbia, South Carolina, Mayor Steven Benjamin, a Democrat, said city council members are poised to approve a new ordinance that bans bump stocks, the firearm add-on that critics say turns a semi-automatic into a fully automatic -- albeit without much control. Useless. Useless, useless and useless.

Sorry, secularists, you ain’t killing Christmas

A new poll from Pew Research Center's Religion & Public Life finds most Americans see a decline in the religious aspect of Christmas, and that an ever-shrinking majority think the whole Jesus-Christ-born-in-a-manger reason for the season is just bunk -- fairy-tale fallacy. Well bah humbug to that. Let's say we kick the secularists to the curb on this one.

Hollywood actresses to wear black dresses, to protest harassment — at black-tie affair

What courage, what bravery, what an unmitigated bold stroke of in-your-face protest -- Hollywood actresses attending the 2018 Golden Globes have agreed to don black for the event, to send a solidarity-sistah message around the world that goes like this: Thou shalt not sexually harass. Wait a moment, isn't this a black-tie affair, anyway?

Luis Elizondo, ex-Pentagon UFO hunter: ‘We may not be alone’

A former Pentagon official who oversaw its highly secretive Unidentified Flying Object -- yes, UFO -- program said on CNN to host Erin Burnett that Americans may have been having visitors from afar for quite some time. And that the government has kept it quite on the hush-and-hush. Oh great, just what we need. With all the government Section 702 secrecy, all the government FISA court curiosities, all the government Russia collusion crap going on -- another government secret.

‘Jingle Bells’ racist — and Rudolph’s a Commie

The age-old Christmastime favorite "Jingle Bells" is now racist, according to a Boston University professor, who claimed in a paper -- make that "Paper" -- that its first public performance was done with blackface actors. Poor Massachusetts. First Elizabeth "Pocohontas" Warren; now Kyna Hamill, theater historian.

Linda Sarsour accused of sex abuse cover-up

Linda Sarsour, one of Islam's greatest propagandists and, oddly enough -- given the Muslim religion's overall doggy way of treating women -- one of Feminist World's emerging heroines, has been accused of bullying a sexual abuse victim into silence. Well now, isn't this a twist.

U.N., give it up: Fighting Donald Trump’s Jerusalem declaration a lost cause

This is why the United Nations is virtually useless -- and anti-American. The U.N. Security Council is mulling a draft resolution that would overturn President Donald Trump's announced recognition of Jerusalem as the capital city of Israel.

Adultery is not sexual harassment

Addie Zinone, a former production assistant for the "Today Show," has come forward to say she and Matt Lauer engaged in a consensual sexual encounter in the 2000 time frame -- but that she was a victim of his sexually harassing nature just the same. Maybe. But let's be clear. Adultery is not the same as sexual harassment.

Catholic Church pressed to lift celibacy, dime out confessing abusers

The Catholic Church, as everybody knows, has a problem with its priests preying on little children, and with its higher-ups covering up the sexual abuse scandals. So a new report in Australia is recommending the church lift its celibacy requirements for the diocesan clergy -- the idea being that if these members of the church could have sex with, say, wives, they wouldn't be chasing after the choir boys. This makes practical sense.

J.K. Rowling, ‘Harry Potter’ fame: God is a black woman

J.K. Rowling, the author of the "Harry Potter" series that was made into several movies, weighed in on the Alabama Senate election to say that Roy Moore, who spoke of how God was in control during his explanation to supporters about his refusal to concede, was indeed correct -- God was definitely in control. It was her next statement that raises eyebrows. Rowling, in a tweet, added: "What [Moore] didn't realise was, She's black."

Doug Jones — and Donald Trump’s life just got a lot harder

President Donald Trump has been beating a dead horse in Congress for almost a year now, trying to pass his agendas legislatively through a Senate that's dominated by Republicans yet consistently falls to Democratic Party will because of an ever-looming threat of filibuster. It's only going to get tougher for Trump. Prepare for the stalled and even dropped legislation.

Mike Huckabee on non-conceding Roy Moore: ‘Best to exit with class’

Mike Huckabee, former Arkansas governor and presidential hopeful, sent a pretty blunt message Roy Moore's way Wednesday, telling the failed Senate candidate it was well past time to concede. "Roy Moore won't concede; says will wait on God to speak," Huckabee tweeted. "God wasn't registered to vote in AL but the ppl who voted did speak and it wasn't close enough for recount." Quite right.

Peter Strzok’s horrifying tweet of ‘f—ing terrifying’ Trump an eye-opener of bias

The one question that comes to mind after reading the texts that former special counsel investigator Peter Strzok sent to colleague Lisa Page in the 2015-2016 time frame is this: How the heck did he ever make it to Robert Mueller's so-called nonpartisan, unbiased team of merry Russian collusion investigators?

Donald Trump’s right — by the numbers, media hate him

A new study showed that in September, October and November, almost 91 percent of remarks from reporters' and other so-called non-partisan-types' mouths during evening ABC, NBC and CBS broadcasts were anti-Trump in nature. Ninety-one percent. That's pretty dang significant. That's an outright media blitz -- a war even.
