The real Hillary Clinton — the funny, kind, passionate woman her friends and colleagues insist actually exists — has been missing from public view for so long that even some of her most admiring defenders wonder whether she will ever emerge again. On the eve of the first presidential debate, Clinton’s campaign is launching a drive to convince voters that she is, well, human. The move, coming just six weeks before the election, is a frank admission that whether it traces to her embarrassingly public marital traumas, or to the arrows aimed at her during the White House years by...

"New Spirit Revival Center church pastor Rev. Darrell Scott declared Wednesday that there is a "concentrated satanic attack" being waged against Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump, who is believed by some evangelicals to be God's choice for president."

Coincidentally, many of them work in or have ties to important battleground states. Sen. Mike Lee, R-Utah Neil Gorsuch, a judge of the Tenth Circuit Court of Appeals Margaret Ryan, a judge of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Armed Forces Edward Mansfield, a justice of the Iowa Supreme Court Keith Blackwell, a justice of the Georgia Supreme Court Charles Canady, a justice of the Florida Supreme Court Timothy Tymkovich, chief judge of the Tenth Circuit Court of Appeals Amul Thapar, a judge of the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Kentucky Frederico Moreno, a judge...

Let's annoy the HilLIARy campaign even more and start picking Trump's cabinet and other appointments.

Hillary Clinton wants to increase the estate tax to 65 percent on the wealthiest Americans, according to her latest tax plan. The Clinton campaign estimates that the increase would raise an addition $75 billion in revenue over the next decade. The current rate maxes out at 40 percent. But Hillary Clinton and her husband Bill have created a number of tax shelters in recent years to dramatically limit their payment of the very same tax. As Bloomberg reported back in 2014: “To reduce the tax pinch, the Clintons are using financial planning strategies befitting the top 1 percent of U.S....

With swing-state polls reportedly driving some nervous Hillary Clinton supporters to check out housing prices in Canada, attention is turning to what many in both parties thought the impossible -- a Donald Trump presidency and what it might look like. Though the temperament and personality hardly match, there are enough parallels between the high-energy business tycoon and Dwight D. Eisenhower to make the avuncular Ike's Oval Office tenure six decades ago a predictor of a Trump presidency's features. The World War II hero and five-star Army general credited with winning the war in Europe wasn't rigidly ideological any more than...

The Weekly Standard's Bill Kristol, who once believed a Trump presidential nomination would doom the GOP to a devastating loss, tells 'On the Record' he now thinks 'The Donald' could pull out a victory. Here's why

An internal Obama administration email shows immigration officials may be literally working overtime to swear in as many new “citizen voters” as possible before the Nov. 8 presidential election, a powerful lawmaker charged Thursday. The email, from a U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services field office chief and part of a chain of correspondence within the agency, urges the unnamed recipient to swear in as many citizens as possible “due to the election year.” “The Field Office due to the election year needs to process as many of their N-400 cases as possible between now and FY 2016,” reads the email,...

This summer, President Obama was often golfing. Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump were promising to let the world be. The end of summer seemed sleepy, the world relatively calm. The summer of 1914 in Europe also seemed quiet. But on July 28, Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria was assassinated in Sarajevo by Gavrilo Princip with help from his accomplices, fellow Serbian separatists. That isolated act sparked World War I. In the summer of 1939, most observers thought Adolf Hitler was finally through with his serial bullying. Appeasement supposedly had satiated his once enormous territorial appetites. But on Sept. 1, Nazi...

Hillary Clinton defended her use of classified information, insisting that she never sent or received any documents on her private email server that were properly marked as classified. Clinton was pressed with questions about the issue almost immediately at the NBC News "Commander-in-Chief forum" on Wednesday. Clinton reiterated that none of the information that she discussed on her private server was marked classified. "I communicated about classified material on a wholly separate system," Clinton said.

ABC reporter asks Clinton if she needs neurological tests By Joe Concha - 09/22/16 09:30 AM EDT A Tampa, Fla., ABC News reporter asked Hillary Clinton whether she would be willing to take neurological exams in the wake of recent health concerns. Clinton laughed off the question by ABC Action News reporter Sarina Fazan, who said some doctors had called on her to take "neuro-cognitive" tests. “I am very sorry I got pneumonia," Clinton said. "I am very glad that antibiotics took care of it and that’s behind us now. I have met the standard that everybody running for president...

During a rally in Orlando, Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton lamented the number of black Americans killed by police. “It’s unbearable, and it needs to become intolerable,” Clinton said, pointing to a “long list of African Americans killed by police officers.” She specifically mentioned the death of Keith Lamont Scott, shot by police officers in Charlotte on Tuesday, after he exited the vehicle and refused to drop a handgun in his possession.

Hillary Clinton asks why she's not 50 points ahead.

Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton sent a passionate video message to the Laborers’ International Union of North America, demanding that they help get the message out about Donald Trump. She pointed out that she was against “Right To Work” and appeared upset that Trump was gaining in the polls despite his record of supporting it. “Having said all this, ‘Why aren’t I 50 points ahead?’ you might ask,” she said, highlighting Trump’s anti-Labor union stance. “Nobody should be fooled,” she said. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0EyoKB3ZHSc

NEW YORK CITY, New York — Donald J. Trump, the Republican nominee for president, has sided with the sovereignty of the American people against international elites yet again by coming out in public opposition to President Barack Obama’s internet giveaway to a United Nations globalist body. Stephen Miller, Donald Trump’s chief policy adviser, said in a Wednesday statement: Donald J. Trump is committed to preserving Internet freedom for the American people and citizens all over the world. The U.S. should not turn control of the Internet over to the United Nations and the international community. President Obama intends to do...

Students all over Penn State University agree on this much about Hillary Clinton: "She’s slimy," said Anay Pope. And Pope, 25, is a Clinton supporter. For the moment. Clinton’s poll numbers are sagging, and the biggest reason is that she’s plunging among young voters. A Quinnipiac University poll this month found that in a four-way race, Clinton is up 5 points nationally with 18- to 34-year-old voters, down from a 24-point lead just a month before. Just days ahead of the first debate Monday and less than two months before voting ends, she faces two challenges: Many young voters are...

"Donald J. Trump is committed to preserving Internet freedom for the American people and citizens all over the world. The U.S. should not turn control of the Internet over to the United Nations and the international community. President Obama intends to do so on his own authority – just 10 days from now, on October 1st, unless Congress acts quickly to stop him. The Republicans in Congress are admirably leading a fight to save the Internet this week, and need all the help the American people can give them to be successful. Hillary Clinton’s Democrats are refusing to protect the...

Can Hillary Clinton keep her health problems at bay for an hour and a half of commercial-free TV? If she can’t, all the excuses in the world with the media there to parrot them won’t save her The scheduled topics for next Monday’s presidential debate include security and the economy but Americans will be tuning in to see if Hillary Clinton’s health problems are serious enough to end her bid for the presidency. If she succumbs to prolonged, embarrassing coughing fits, faints or even shows signs of being glassy-eyed and unsteady, she’s finished. She’ll be asked to drop out by...

Hillary Clinton’s campaign and its allies are outspending their Republican counterparts by a factor of about five to one, according to a new analysis released Tuesday. But the former secretary of State has failed to put away Donald Trump, and many anxious Democrats are baffled as to why the race remains so close.
