Christians outpace FEMA in aid to hurricane victims

Faith-based groups -- Christian nonprofits, specifically -- have been busy bees of late, providing more aid to hurricane victims than even FEMA, the federal agency that's supposed to swoop to the scenes of natural disasters, assess the situation and speed the recovery and rebuilding process. Just goes to show: Where charity exists, government is not needed.

Steve Bannon-CBS takeaway: Swamp creatures are winning

Steve Bannon, in an interview with Charlie Rose on "60 Minutes" on CBS, said elites in the Republican Party have been steadily working to "nullify" the results of the 2016 election, and cast President Donald Trump to the side. It doesn't get any clearer -- or more honest -- than that.

‘Trump betrays everyone’: Republican strategist goes hypocritical

Republicans aren't reacting so well to President Donald Trump's step across the political aisle to Democrats -- something that came about, if truth be told, only after the GOP failed time and again to work with the White House on long-promised agendas, like Obamacare.

Betsy DeVos, like Donald Trump, dinged for ‘cruel’ leadership

The left has found its newest talking point, and it's one that goes like this: All you Republicans are simply cruel and heartless -- vicious, even. That's what they're calling President Donald Trump, for DACA. That's what they're now saying about Education Secretary Betsy DeVos.

Donald Trump still beats Hillary Clinton, any poll day of the week

A new survey from NBC/Wall Street Journal finds that -- and this is the yada, yada, yawn part -- President Donald Trump's popularity with the American people has hit a new low. But here's the part that actually means something: The same survey found voters still like Trump more than Hillary Clinton.

Michael Reagan: My dad wouldn’t ‘kick the dreamers out’

Michael Reagan tweeted: "Fyi, my father would not kick the dreamers out of the US. He would find a way to work with Congress and lead." And now Reagan's tweet, taken out of context of several others he put out on social media, can be used to feed the narrative of the left, which wants to paint Trump as the cowboy who's riding into Illegal Town to lasso some cowering kids.
