A group of House conservatives has filed an amendment asking the Justice Department for information related to former FBI Director James Comey's handling of the Hillary Clinton email case. The
amendment, first reported by the Washington Post, demands information on "leaks by James B. Comey," on "the propriety and consequence of immunity deals given to possible Hillary Clinton co-conspirators" and Comey's decision to "usurp the authority of then-Attorney General Loretta Lynch in his unusual announcement that criminal charges would not be brought against" Clinton.

An American man says that a half-century ago he was sexually abused by another adult man; the abused was an adult at the time. The
incident took place in a foreign country, and now the man who says he was abused is suing the American company the abuser once worked for, even though the abuser was subsequently fired by the organization. This sounds like a fairy tale, except it is true. It is true because those gunning for the Catholic Church will stop at nothing to discredit it. The alleged offender is a former Catholic priest who supposedly abused an...

Since 1948, there have been more than 275 unprovoked alligator attacks on humans in Florida, of which at least 17 resulted in death. There
were only nine fatal attacks in the U.S. throughout the 1970s, ’80s, and ’90s, but alligators killed 12 people between 2001 and 2007. In May 2006, alligators killed three Floridians in less than a week. Those statistics were the furthest from my mind as I sat cross-legged with my elbows resting on my knees in the bow of a slowly moving jon boat. Trying to paint the gator’s eye with the EOTech MRDS as he floated...

The poll found that more NRA supporters voted for Trump in 2016 than for Mitt Romney in 2012. This

FEC commissioner warns Dems are gunning for conservative media

| 9/7/16 | Paul Bedard
A key Federal Election Commission Republican warned Wednesday that liberals are moving aggressively to "amend the First Amendment" so that conservatives are silenced and businesses are chased "out of the democracy." In
some the toughest criticism leveled at Democrats, Commissioner Lee E. Goodman said that the attack started once the Tea Party changed American politics in the 2010 election and now dominates the politics of the Left. "It has triggered a very aggressive movement by people to amend the First Amendment, left intellectuals have placed it on the table," Goodman said on Boston's Howie Carr show.

Democrats vow to continue gunning for universal background checks

wsau.com ^
MADISON, WI (WTAQ) - Wisconsin Democrats say they'll keep trying to require criminal background checks for virtually all gun sales -- including those at gun shows, and private sales outside of gun shops. Republicans
struck down the idea at both the state and federal levels over the last two years. On Tuesday, Milwaukee Senate Democrat Nikiya Harris Dodd tried but failed to add the expanded background checks to a Republican bill which ends the 48-hour waiting period to buy guns. That measure was okayed by the Senate without amendments, and was sent to the Assembly.

Conservative Comedian Michael Loftus Goes Gunning for Big Government

| 10/3/14 | Mark Tapson
Mixing news with a dose of comic commentary has paid off for The Daily Show’s Jon Stewart. A Brookings Institute survey recently noted that he is a news source more trusted by liberals and independents than MSNBC is. “The
real power to influence the left resides on Comedy Central not MSNBC,” says Politics USA. But if you’re searching your television lineup for a conservative antidote to Stewart, the field is rather limited. There is late night Red Eye’s Greg Gutfeld, there is… actually, there’s just Gutfeld. Or there was until this month, when The Flipside with Michael Loftus debuted on...
