For several weeks “fringe” doctors have argued that the spike proteins produced by the COVID-19 vaccines may result in numerous deaths this winter season. Now, weeks later, the New England Journal of Medicine is suggesting a similar situation. The spike proteins produced by the COVID-19 vaccines may lead to myocarditis and neurological concerns. Alex Berenson reported: Downstream effects of the antibodies that people produce against the coronavirus spike protein may lead to myocarditis and even neurological concerns, two veteran medical researchers have written in the top medical journal in the United States. Our immune systems produce these antibodies in response...

<p>The Trump White House released policy papers Monday declaring full support for California-style firearm confiscation orders. Breitbart News has a copy of the release and it urges states to adopt Extreme Risk Protection Orders without court order.</p>

Back in 1990, Ivana Trump told her divorce lawyer Michael Kennedy that “from time to time, her husband [Donald Trump] reads a book of Hitler’s collected speeches, ‘My New Order,’ which he keeps in a cabinet by his bed.” This information, which comes from a startling 1990 Vanity Fair profile of Trump, certainly does not prove that he is anti-Semitic (a daughter recently converted to Judaism) and is cited here just because, as with so much about Trump, it makes no sense at all. It is just another grenade that comes rolling out of the profile — yet another detail...

Donald Trump, the billionaire White House waters-tester...gave $2,400 in 2009 to Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid...has also given $8,900 over the years to House and Senate campaigns of Sen. Charles Schumer...also gave $4,800 to former Florida Gov. Charlie Crist‘s 2010 Senate campaign.

Krauthammer: "There is Trump, Trump is the Al Sharpton of the Republican Party – provocateur and clown, unserious. I think he’s going to harm the party if he runs for the same reason Sharpton harmed the Democrats"

Tea Party darling and "birther" blowhard Donald Trump hasn't always put his money where his mouth is: The Donald has splashed campaign cash on a "Who's Who" who's who of liberal pols. Trump shot to the top of GOP presidential polls by embracing debunked conspiracies about President Obama's birthplace — but he repeatedly has opened his fat checkbook for a slew of Democratic stars, a review by the Center for Responsive Politics found. The all-time apple of Trump's eye is beleaguered Harlem Rep. Charlie Rangel, the once powerful once-powerful ex-head of the tax-writing Ways & Means Committee — and a...

Reality TV and real estate personality Donald Trump may be as far as nine points ahead in the latest GOP 2012 polls, but that doesn’t mean the Republican establishment is ready to embrace him with open arms. On last night’s On the Record, Karl Rove did his best to distance the party from the Donald, telling Greta Van Susteren that his “weird conspiracy theories” about President Obama’s birth certificate made him a “joke candidate.” After a lengthy discussion about the current budget battle in Congress in which Rove claimed Republicans had attained victory, if only because the federal government’s budget...

One of the oldest tricks in warfare is to distract the enemy. The statists are partly succeeding in fooling us this way, with Donald Trump. Step back, and redefine the battle. It is not a battle only against Obama. It's a battle against statism and against socialism.If we lose our focus, we go down. The marxists/statists know that if they can figure out a way to stage one of their own (Trump) against another of their guys (Obama), it will take our attention away from the target, confuse us and divide us. Evidence: Trump supported Harry Reid against the heart...

The man behind Donald Trump's possible 2012 presidential campaign is a registered Democrat who voted for Barack Obama in 2008. Not only that, but Michael Cohen, an executive at the Trump Organization who doubles as Trump's chief political adviser, once volunteered for 1988 presidential candidate Michael Dukakis and worked for a Democratic member of Congress. This election cycle is different. Late last year, Cohen co-founded the draft Trump website "Should Trump Run?" It has received more than 830,000 hits. Cohen, 44, is known around the office -- and around New York -- as Trump's "pit bull." Some have even nicknamed...

Look how Chump operates. Caught red-handed now with his vicious attacks on George Bush, who most conservatives had issues with, he now says but for Bush there would have likely been no Obama. That may well be true. I have been a harsh critic of Bush's spending, including in my book. But Chump was calling Bush EVIL and demanded his IMPEACHMENT because of the Iraq war and in the middle of that war. He said Bush lied to get us into Iraq. His comments were vile and outrageous, not unlike the America-hating leftists who sought to undermine are armed forces...

Karl Rove on how Donald Trump's birther obsession hurt his presidency chances, Obama's Paul Ryan fixation and 'hot mic' comments and more.

"I don't think he is really serious when we see a campaign launch on the birther issue," Cantor said. On Friday, Karl Rove told Fox News Trump is a "joke candidate" because of his birther-centric media cavalcade. "It's amazing," Trump said. "He's so against me, because I am questioning. All I want to see is the guy's birth certificate."

Fuzzy Slippers makes a great case for dumping The Donald. He backed Harry Reid when tea party candidate Sharron Angle was ahead in the polls, and he got government to declare imminent domain on an old lady's house so he could build a parking lot. She just googled up a little dirt. Imagine what the Obama operatives will do to Trump. Here's an excerpt from Fuzzy Slippers: Look, I get it. I was warming to Trump. Big. I even told Adrienne that he was the top of my list of potentials. But then I started watching him more closely, listening...

The Elephant in the Room Craig Crawford takes aim at the war against the media but misses the biggest target. By Margaret Sullivan From Middle America's point of view, the conflict between the media and politicians is like a vicious dogfight with a mangy pit bull on one side and a snarling Doberman on the other. The average person's assessment might be this: a pox on both their kennels. But Craig Crawford begs to disagree with any such dismissiveness. A columnist for Congressional Quarterly and a familiar TV talking head, Crawford has gone a few rounds in the ring himself....

Bush campaign mum on any openly gay staffers Cheney runs father’s campaign but other advisers said ‘guarded’ about sexual orientation By ADRIAN BRUNE Friday, May 28, 2004 When George W. Bush ran for president in 2000, he refused to meet with the Log Cabin Republicans. But eventually — after he clinched the GOP nomination and was eager to brandish his image as a “compassionate conservative” — he met with the so-called “Austin 12,” a group of gay party activists who supported his candidacy. In early April of that year, the dozen handpicked supporters, including D.C. Council member David Catania, flew...
