Greg Gianforte, Montana GOPer, gives new meaning to ‘losing it’

Greg Gianforte, Montana's Republican hopeful for the congressional seat vacated by Ryan Zinke -- who's now President Donald Trump's secretary of Interior -- had a little bit of an altercation with one of the reporters who questioned him at his campaign headquarters in Bozeman.

John Brennan’s Russian-Trump testimony big nothingburger

John Brennan, former CIA director, said during congressional testimony this week that Russian officials most definitely tried to interfere in America's 2016 elections, and that he was concerned they may have recruited some of President Donald Trump's aides to help with the sabotage.

Democrat logic: It’s fun to threaten Republicans

Most people, when they want their congressional members to hear their dissenting voices, send a letter, drop an email, leave a voicemail. Democrats? They threaten violence.

Joe Biden, to run or not run? That is the — yawning — question

Joe Biden, former vice president, spent the better part of campaign season 2016 dodging in and out of the "yay" and "nay" camps on running for the high White House office, before ultimately falling into the latter category. And now, it seems, he's at it again.
