Shame: Democrats mute as America's president bashed overseas

We can disagree at home all we like, but when the president of the United States -- America's president -- goes overseas, we are all Americans. All of us.

Hillary Clinton just can't stop. The 71-year-old grandmother in terrible health, who occasionally falls down and breaks a limb or bangs her head so hard she suffers a concussion, will not simply go away. More than two years after she lost to Donald Trump in a stunning upset, the two-time loser keeps clinging to her former glory like an over-the-hill Hollywood actress. Published March 5, 2019

Democrats fine with convicted liar Cohen's fiction

Here's the problem with being a known liar: When you lie, and when you get caught lying -- when it's been proved, in a court of law, that you did, in fact, lie -- it becomes very difficult, if not impossible, to ever be seen again as truthful and honest. Published February 27, 2019
