House Speaker Nancy Pelosi Monday lauded protesters expressing "righteous anger" in the wake of a leaked Supreme Court draft opinion that shows the court may be poised to overturn Roe v. Wade. "While we have seen and heard extraordinary anguish in our communities," Pelosi, D-Calif., said, "we have been moved by how so many have channeled their righteous anger into meaningful action: planning to march and mobilize to make their voices heard." In the statement, Pelosi also attacked Republicans and the Supreme Court over the expected ruling, and says that Democrats will "fight relentlessly to enshrine Roe v. Wade as...

President Joe Biden has consistently struggled with anger outbursts when peppered with unwanted questions — especially questions about the Biden family corruption. All throughout the presidential campaign and into his presidency, Biden has consistently used anger in an attempt to dispel questions he does not want to answer. According the Republican National Committee’s research team on Monday, Biden has leveraged his defensive anger at least five times when questioned about his family’s business dealings.

The smack heard round the world. That’s what this year’s Academy Awards are likely to be remembered for, after Will Smith struck comedian Chris Rock in the face as he presented the award for best documentary feature. The incident came after Rock made a joke about Smith’s wife, Jada Pinkett Smith, mocking her shaved head. Pinkett Smith, an actress and host of the award-winning talk show Red Table Talk, has publicly shared her struggles with alopecia, an autoimmune disorder that attacks hair cells. The tasteless jab was enough to cause Smith to march on stage and strike the chuckling comedian...

A Southern California man who shot and killed a woman holding her 2-year-old son during an argument over the 2016 presidential election was sentenced to 35 years to life in prison. John Kevin McVoy Jr., 40, of Corona, received the maximum sentence Monday after being convicted of murder last month... McVoy pulled a gun after he was teased for saying he had voted for Hillary Clinton and Garcia told him to leave, prosecutors said. McVoy shot and wounded Garcia and a second shot fatally struck Garcia’s wife, Susan Garcia, 33, as she held their child on her lap. The child...

It’s not until you leave the United States that you realize how angry Americans are. Earlier this month my wife the travel agent and I took a cruise in the Mediterranean from Athens to Barcelona by way of stops on the Greek island of Santorini and in Sicily. It was the first trip Colleen has been able to book since February 2020, right before the global pandemic lockdowns sank 80 percent of the cruise ship industry and put her out of a job. For me, who got to tag along, it was the best kind of getaway vacation, mainly because...

Former White House press secretary Stephanie Grisham in a new book says former President Trump’s anger toward her and others was “terrifying.” Grisham, who served as press secretary for nine months before moving to the first lady’s office, writes in her new book, “I’ll Take Your Questions Now,” that she started to regret her decision to work in the West Wing when she saw Trump’s temper “wasn’t just for shock value or the cameras.” “When I began to see how his temper wasn’t just for shock value or the cameras ... I began to regret my decision to go to...

Political pundit and former co-host of ABC's "The View" Meghan McCain is arguing President Biden has failed to make good on a campaign promise to unite the country at a time of escalating partisan division nationwide. Referencing Biden's repeated vows along the campaign trail last year to "heal the soul of America," McCain, a conservative Republican, blasted the commander-in-chief. "No one is healing. Nothing is healed," she wrote in her debut column for DailyMail.com published on Tuesday. "The wound Donald Trump ripped open has done nothing but fester since Scranton Joe was inaugurated."

France cancels DC gala in anger over Biden sub deal: report © SAUL LOEB/AFP/Getty Images French officials on Thursday canceled a gala at the country’s Washington D.C. embassy over the Biden administration’s decision to scrap a $40 billion nuclear submarine deal that the European nation had signed with Australia, The New York Times reported. The U.S., Australia and the United Kingdom on Wednesday announced a new trilateral security partnership in the Indo-Pacific, with the three planning to launch an 18-month review exploring how Australia could best acquire nuclear-powered submarines.

Kathy Griffin revealed she has lung cancer despite “never” smoking and will be undergoing surgery to have half of her left lung removed. The comedian announced the news Monday morning in a lengthy note posted to social media, sharing that the cancer is stage 1 and “contained.” “I’ve got to tell you guys something. I have cancer. I’m about to go into surgery to have half of my left lung removed,” she began her letter on social media. “Yes, I have lung cancer even though I’ve never smoked! The doctors are very optimistic as it is stage one and contained...

A third state went into lockdown on Tuesday. Stay-at-home orders are now in place in South Australia, Victoria and parts of New South Wales. Many people have expressed frustration at being back in highly policed lockdowns 18 months into the pandemic. And re-openings in the UK and the US have put pressure on the government. Fewer than 14% of people are vaccinated - the worst rating among OECD nations. Prime Minister Scott Morrison has been heavily criticised over the slow vaccination rate, but has resisted calls to apologise. "No country has got their pandemic response 100%," he told reporters on...

President Joe Biden has a short temper and sometimes unloads outbursts of profanity on his aides, the New York Times reported Friday. The report notes Biden holds lengthy deliberation meetings and demands obsessive details from his advisors. When advisors get too technical or obscure about an issue, Biden responds with “an outburst of frustration, often laced with profanity.”

Biden’s official Twitter account later posted, "The rule is now simple: get vaccinated or wear a mask until you do. The choice is yours." The tweet was quickly picked up by some influential users. Glenn Greenwald, the journalist, retweeted Biden’s comment and posted, "This is not actually a rule." The tweet also raised questions about children who don't have the approval to receive the vaccines. Dana Hull, a Bloomberg reporter, tweeted, "Really hard for parents who have kids under 12 to square this." The Biden administration has been focused on getting more Americans to sign up for COVID-19 vaccines that...

It’s been nearly a year since Amy Cooper — upset that she had been asked to leash her dog in the Ramble — called 911 on bird-watcher Christian Cooper in Central Park, falsely alleging that her life was in danger. But such “Karen” incidents have not gone away. If anything, they have become a depressingly regular occurrence. So regular and unsurprising, in fact, that many of these videos no longer go viral. In the latest such case earlier this week, a 77-year-old woman, a resident of a retirement community in Wildwood, Fla., was charged with launching a racial tirade against...

The Scriptures record that Adam was ashamed and hid. It’s a primal response. Shame is experienced as a burning sense of exposure and vulnerability. It begs to be clothed upon and hidden. It is possible to say that human beings have been playing “dress-up” ever since. This can be understood in a literal manner as we wrap ourselves in fashion statements or tattoo identities on our skin. It can also be seen in an extended manner as we borrow identities from the various “tribes” with which we identify ourselves. In a very personal way, it is a thought that enters...

Excerpt: "The one interesting side effect that seems to have stuck with me, is my response to drinking tea. It actually effects my mood enough to make me tangibly angry. Yes, tea makes me angry. "

I've had plenty of reasons to be angry about politics going back to the vicious treatment of President Reagan, to the Clinton's disgusting and impudent behavior, to the treatment of W Bush and later, to some of the things W did himself, to the countless outrages and the arrogance of Obama, to the despicable manner the entire liberal/prog/left/Dem world has treated Donald Trump, to the actual theft of a Presidential election and the way the media, entertainment, academia and other institutions colluded in all of it.

As long ago as the 1970s, I came to a major realization. While watching fellow students at Columbia University demonstrate not just against the war in Vietnam but against America -- "Amerika," as many spelled it, the "imperialist," "colonialist," "mass-murdering" country -- I kept wondering what made these people so hostile to the freest country in human history. Then, one day, as a result of my having attended a yeshiva (an Orthodox Jewish day school) through high school, the reason became clear. Half of each school day was devoted to religious studies in Hebrew, and the other half was devoted...

The left has moved beyond indoctrination through biased textbooks and false narratives. Now, our kids are being taught to channel their anger in protest. For years, conservatives have been sounding the alarm about anti-American indoctrination in public schools. TheyÂ’ve pointed out the dangers of mainstreaming of Howard ZinnÂ’s A PeopleÂ’s History of the United States. TheyÂ’ve exposed the racialism of the 1619 Project. Unfortunately, however, the situation in public schools is far worse than the mere presence of propaganda.Theoretically, parents can resist the dominant paradigm by explaining that itÂ’s just the teacherÂ’s opinion, and providing a counter-narrative at home. But...

President Donald Trump told reporters the nation has ordered 'millions' of units of the drug 'cloroquine' that he said he has a 'feeling' will be effective against the coronavirus. 'We ordered them. We have millions of units ordered,' Trump said, name checking the German manufacturer Bayer, which he called a 'great company.' 'Millions of units are ordered and we’re going to see what happens,' Trump said. Trump and health officials referenced the drug yesterday as among those having promising potential to alleviate those suffering from the coronavirus – although Trump was immediately contradicted on claims that it was ready for...

Democratic frontrunner Joe Biden freaked out at a reporter Wednesday after a campaign event in Mason City, Iowa, after he was grilled about his ongoing feud with Bernie Sanders.
