While the headlines over the past week have been swamped with coverage over the candidates bidding for the 2016 presidential election and a “trans-racial” NAACP leader lying about her race, critically important issues that are detrimental to our national security have gone virtually unnoticed. For
instance, on Friday we learned that as many as 14 million current and former civilian U.S. government employees had their information compromised in an unprecedented attack by Chinese hackers. In a late Friday news dump, the Associated Press announced that the hackers stole, “Social Security numbers, military records and veterans’ status information, addresses, birth dates,...

Coach is Right ^
| 3/1/15 | Kevin "Coach" Collins
We didn’t really notice the political ineptness of George H.W. Bush. He ran with the great Ronald Reagan who could have picked a name from the phone book as his running mate and won both times. Bush
the elder brought little to the ticket as he knew little about politics. When he ran on his own and picked Dan Quayle to run with he proved that point. George W. Bush was different. He had been Governor of Texas and knew things about politics his father never learned. He presented himself to us as a solid Texas style conservative at first...

Newsmax ^
| Dec 28 | By Sandy Fitzgerald
Dr. Anthony Fauci on Monday advised Americans to stay away from large New Year's Eve gatherings because of the rapid spread of the omicron coronavirus variant and the difficulties of getting tested. He
also acknowledged that the United States should have had more testing capacity before the variant caused another disease surge. "We had a conflation of high demands because of the concern about omicron, which is a justifiable concern, but the high demand that was triggered by the holiday season, people getting ready to travel getting ready to go and mix with family members and friends," Fauci said on...

Alec Baldwin filed a lawsuit a year after the Rust incident. According
to court documents, Baldwin seeks to “clear his name” after the accidental death of Halyna Hutchins on the set of his movie.

We need a President that is clear and firm with our southern neighbors. Mexico

Time Names Volodymyr Zelensky Person of the Year: ‘The Most Clear-Cut Choice in Memory

| 12/7/2022 | Frances Martel
Time magazine announced Wednesday it had chosen Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky its person of the year for 2022, calling it an obvious choice in light of the head of state’s ubiquity and his ability to “galvanize the world” around his cause. The
“spirit of Ukraine,” a nebulous concept that apparently includes Spanish celebrity chef José Andrés, also earned recognition as a 2022 “person of the year.”

The situation at the border is getting worse, specifically regarding the number of migrant children in custody, and the responsibility for that lies solely with Joe Biden and his pursuit of absolutely terrible policies that are encouraging a surge of illegal immigration. Despite
that, Jen Psaki decided to make some ridiculous claims in today’s presser, clearly believing that those listening are morons. In the process, she also made it clear that we don’t really have a president. The following clips are just mind-blowing in their level of dishonesty and buck-passing. When asked about why illegal immigrants are flooding the border,...

A Clear Choice: President Trump or Rashida Tlaib

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's Democratic impeachment hearings have been a big bust. The
impeachment of President Donald Trump is such a bomb that if it were a TV series, it would be canceled after the first episode. Only 13 million Americans tuned in to watch the first day. I'm betting the number hits zero very soon. But here's the amazing thing: Trump released the two transcripts. The funniest part of the hearings is that you and I know more about Trump's conversation than any of the "witnesses" or "whistleblowers." They all heard what Trump said from other sources. They heard...

Answer to "Peaceful Transfer of Power Question. The president needs to be more clear.

He should simply say, "(Democrat Hack who posed the question's Name), why do you keep asking me this instead of Joe Biden? You ask it now, you asked the same exact question in 2016. There
was no "peaceful transfer of power" after Crooked Hillary lost. In fact you (democrat hack's name) and your co-hearts in the Democratic party have been trying to overturn the election since day one - and in many ways, not peacefully. I do not think that I am going to lose. If there is a fair election, I will not lose. If you (democrat hack's name)...

Obama: Title of Supreme Leader "Seems More Clear Cut Than President" (with video!)

| April 11, 2014 | RealClearPolitics
PRESIDENT OBAMA: With respect to the Supreme Leader, yes, it's a pretty important title. It
seems a little more clear cut than president. On the other hand, there may be ways of structuring a final deal that satisfies their pride, their optics, their politics, but meet our core practical objectives. And that's what we've got to give the negotiators room to determine.

The president has once again (but even more obviously than usual) made clear his unapologetic bigotry, nativism and racism. Are
GOP leaders, donors and voters still fine with re-nominating Donald Trump for president? Do they really believe the Republican Party can do no better? 10:41 AM · Jul 14, 2019 ·

Broadcaster Jason Whitlock said Wednesday that there was “clear momentum” For President Donald Trump among black men. “I
think there’s some clear momentum for President Trump particularly I think with black men,” the Outkick.com host told Fox News’ “Tucker Carlson Tonight.” “I think we have been carrying on a facade for three-and-a-half years as black men that somehow we can’t relate to Donald Trump that we didn’t celebrate him in hip-hop music for decades that he wasn’t friends with countless black athletes, entertainers, celebrities.” Whitlock, who interviewed Trump on Wednesday, noted that the president referred to his past friendship with...

"Rorate Editorial: The Pope in the United States - Ambiguous on what should be clear, clear only on his political priorities" Pope Francis' visit has shown us once more that he can be clear and unambiguous on his priorities, and vocal and forthright in saying what he wants to say. He
did not hesitate to make direct statements on immigration, on the environment, on the abolition of the death penalty and in praise of religious liberty (that is, religious liberty as understood by the Western secular consensus rather than the defense of the Church's right to proclaim the truth in...

The first snippets of testimony have emerged from the depositions taken in the Colin Kaepernick collusion grievance. And
it’s becoming even more obvious that the NFL changed its anthem policy at the direct behest of the President. Cowboys owner Jerry Jones, while testifying in the Kaepernick collusion grievance, shared the details of a phone call with the President. “This is a very winning, strong issue for me,” the President told Jones, according to Andrew Beaton of the Wall Street Journal. “Tell everybody, you can’t win this one. This one lifts me.” The President was right. There was no way to...

‘Pence rule’: How vice president steers clear of any sexual misconduct scandal

Vice President Mike Pence was roundly ridiculed when it was revealed that he makes an effort never to be alone with a woman who is not his wife, but the policy is looking less prudish and more sensible as accusations of sexual misconduct against powerful men proliferate. Accusations
first surfaced last month against movie mogul Harvey Weinstein and have since reverberated through Hollywood, the media and government at every level. On Wednesday, Matt Lauer, a longtime host of NBC’s “Today,” and Minnesota Public Radio’s Garrison Keillor were fired by their respective organizations amid accusations of improper behavior.

Stunningly Clear and Direct Remarks by President Trump Toward Qatar and the Muslim Brotherhood

| June 9, 2017 | sundance
Perhaps the least media emphasized -yet most important- statement from President Trump today was the clarity behind the President calling out the government of Qatar for being a state financier of terrorism. Stunningly
clear-eyed.Many people have contemplated whether President Trump would identify The Muslim Brotherhood as an officially recognized Terrorist organization. Because of the political nature of The Brotherhood, and the Machiavellian face they project toward majority Muslim nations, there is a valid argument on both sides of such a consideration.However, the large and previously unspoken, albeit transparently obvious, truth is that Qatar has always been the primary financier of...

White House: President Obama Has A "Clear Eyed Assessment of What He Thinks is Happening" With ISIS

Speaking from the White House Monday after more than a week of being overseas, Press Secretary Josh Earnest tried to reassure reporters that President Obama is taking the threat from ISIS seriously and is gathering as much intelligence on the terror army as he possibly can. "The
intelligence reports that he's received about ISIL and the impact they've had on Syria and Iraq in particular, have been troubling and that is part of what has prompted the kind of aggressive and sustained commitment to degrading and ultimately destroying that organization that you've seen put forward by the president," Earnest said....
