In their vile attempts to derail the senate confirmation of Judge Brett Kavanaugh, Democrats may have overplayed their hand. This includes everything from the now discredited accusations of Julie Swetnick to the recent cartoon of Kavanaugh’s daughter. Everyone was so appalled by comedian Rachel Butera’s imitation (she nailed it, by the way) of Christine Ford’s testimony, but the cartoon making fun of Kavanaugh’s ten-year-old daughter was somehow okay. Their tactics went way beyond politics as usual. One after another, politicians and law enforcement officials have said they’ve never seen anything like this in their careers. And the American people have...

Monday, the White House announced a new agreement among Mexico, Canada, and the USA to end the NAFTA treaty and replace it with the USMCA treaty. Donald Trump has managed to confound the pundits again and get an agreement likely to expand the economy of the USA. His genus is that he managed to give both Canada and Mexico a winning situation, so all nations benefit. The loser is likely to be China, as more material sourcing and manufacturing will occur in North America. With improved economic conditions, the Republicans hope to maintain control of both houses of Congress. This...

A lawyer for Mark Judge, a high school friend of Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh, says Judge has been interviewed by the FBI but his "interview has not been completed." Attorney Barbara "Biz" Van Gelder issued the statement Monday.

"If they don’t get Kavanaugh through, I wouldn’t bother showing up for work on November 7th," David Bozell, president of the conservative group ForAmerica, told the Washington Examiner. "Most of them will be out of jobs, because of losing on November the 6th,"..."Failure to confirm Kavanaugh would be seen by a substantial portion of the Republican base as a betrayal of the party's promise to appoint strong, proven conservatives to the Supreme Court, and would certainly hurt turnout among those voters in November's midterms," said Michael Steel, a managing director at Hamilton Place Strategies...Trump is standing by Kavanaugh and insists...

There seems to be a high degree of confidence among liberals that if Brett Kavanaugh goes down, President Trump will simply appoint another conservative, who Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell would simply push through before the new Congress is sworn in — even if Republicans end up losing control of the Senate. This assumption has always, to me, been highly overstated, so it didn't surprise me to see this report from Jonathan Swan of Axios saying that Trump has no plan B to swap in another nominee if Kavanaugh goes down. "There's no time before the [midterm] election to put...

A 527 political organization funded primarily by a trio of liberal mega-donors - Tom Steyer, George Soros, and S. Donald Sussman - is attempting to impact local and state-level political campaigns by donating to committees funded primarily by leftwing pressure groups. The Washington Free Beacon previously reported that the group, State Victory Action, donated $500,000 to an independent expenditure committee in Colorado in support of the Democratic gubernatorial nominee. However, a state-by-state review of other records shows SVA is also active in Minnesota, Maine, New Mexico, and Nevada, totaling about $1.7 million in disclosed funding thus far in state campaign...

A GREAT MOMENT NEAR THE END OF THE TRADE NEWS CONFERENCE ....... President Trump: ( In response to the question of who were the "bad" players with weak character in Congress.) President Trump: "I THINK I'LL SAVE IT FOR A BOOK .... LIKE EVERYBODY ELSE". LMAO!

Among female respondents, 47 percent said the confirmation process made them less likely to vote for McCaskill, while 42 percent said it made them more likely. Among male respondents, 50 percent said the confirmation process made them less likely to vote for McCaskill, while 41 percent said it made them more likely.

A nearly 100-year old statute allows the chairmen of Congress’ tax committees to look at anyone’s returns. The years-old mystery of what’s in President Donald Trump’s tax returns will likely quickly unravel if Democrats win control of at least one chamber of Congress. Democrats, especially in the House, are quietly planning on using an obscure law that will enable them to examine the president’s tax filings without his permission. The nearly 100-year-old statute allows the chairmen of Congress’ tax committees to look at anyone’s returns, and Democrats say they intend to use that power to help answer a long list...

Republican Senators Lee, Graham and Hatch were doxxed on Wikipedia on Thursday. There is nothing too low for the left. Many Republicans on the Senate Judiciary had their home addresses and phone numbers published on their Wikipedia pages Thursday. Shortly after Lindsey Graham went off on Senate Democrats for destroying Kavanaugh’s life in order to derail his confirmation, Republicans were doxxed. The victims included Republican Senators Mike Lee, Orrin Hatch of Utah and Lindsey Graham, reported the Washington Times. According to Caleb Hull, editor of the Independent Journal Review, the wife of Mr. Hatch “has been receiving calls nonstop ON...

I am PISSED OFF!!!! All this talk about investigating Kavanaugh, which possibly sets him up for a perjury trap.. WHAT ABOUT FORD? We STILL do not know WHERE the alleged event happened. Wouldn't ANY assaulted woman remember WHERE it happened? Dr. Ford has NO DETAILS because the ABSENCE of details MAKES IT IMPOSSIBLE FOR KAVANAUGH TO DISPROVE. This is how you know DR. FORD IS LYING! Enough of this travesty, already. I WANT TO KNOW WHO LEAKED DR. FORD'S STORY AND "THE LETTER" AS WELL. I DEMAND THE FBI INVESTIGATE! I also want to know WHY DIANNE FEINSWINE KEPT THE...

Judge Brett Kavanaugh & Professor Christine Blasey Ford Testify The Senate Judiciary Committee hears testimony from Supreme Court nominee Judge Brett Kavanaugh and Professor Christine Blasey Ford about her allegations that Judge Kavanaugh sexually assaulted her while the two were teenagers.

Republicans on the Senate Judiciary Committee have brought in "an experienced sex-crimes prosecutor" to handle questioning on Thursday, but declined to identify her. Senate Judiciary Committee Republicans said Tuesday that they had hired an outside counsel to question Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh and Christine Blasey Ford, who has accused him of sexually assaulting her, at the committee's hearing on Thursday — though they would not reveal the lawyer's identity, drawing criticism from Democrats and women's advocates. In a letter to a lawyer for Ford on Monday, Mike Davis, who handles nominations for Republicans on the committee — all of...

Former Vice President Joe Biden predicted that Democrats will win the majority in both chambers of Congress in the midterm election. "We're going to win back the United States House of Representatives, I promise you. And I predict we'll win back the Senate, too," he said during an interview at the Biden Cancer Summit on Friday alongside his wife, Jill Biden. When Mrs. Biden was asked how she would react if her husband said he wanted to run for president in 2020, she replied, “I would say, Joe, you would make a great president but let’s think about it.” When...

The rubber is about to meet the road for Senate Republicans. They have a simple choice: they can vote to confirm Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh, thereby ending the baseless and unsubstantiated Democrat- and media-fueled smear campaign against him, or they can kiss House and Senate majorities goodbye for the next decade, if not longer.In case the election of one Donald J. Trump was not enough to compel the D.C. Republican establishment swamp creatures to wipe the muck from their eyes and see what’s happening with their own constituents, Republican voters have had enough of feckless do-nothings whose careers...

RUSH: So Chairman Grassley has a job to do here, because, if he gives Democrats enough time, they’ll produce a woman claiming to be Kavanaugh’s secret Russian wife who Trump paid to urinate on that bed in Moscow. If Grassley waits long enough, the Democrats will come up with the woman claiming to be Kavanaugh’s secret Russian wife. — he’s a bigamist, too, don’t you know — and Trump paid Kavanaugh’s second wife to hire a bunch of prostitutes to urinate on the bed Obama slept in while in Moscow. If Grassley doesn’t get a handle on this and just...

ST. PAUL, Minn. — Minnesota state Rep. Jim Knoblach abruptly ended his re-election campaign Friday amid allegations of inappropriate touching from his adult daughter. Minnesota Public Radio reported the announcement came hours after the St. Cloud Republican’s attorney, Susan Gaertner, denied the allegations in an interview with the station. She said the veteran lawmaker “does not want to drag his family through six weeks of hell.”
