Bristol Palin just threw cold water on what's supposed to be a joyous occasion ... being pregnant. Palin's in the early stages of her second out of wedlock pregnancy, and this time she's full on grumpy, saying she knows it will be "a huge disappointment to my family, to my close friends, and to many of you." Bristol says she's "trying to keep [my] chin up on this one." Sarah Palin's daughter was engaged to U.S. Marine veteran Dakota Meyer, but they broke things off last month. Bristol didn't say if Dakota's the dad. Bristol was full of piss and...

Governor Palin asks why politics can’t be put aside in the wake of the Charleston shooting: Why can’t politics be put aside in the wake of South Carolina’s mourning? Politicians – please try. It would be in honor of them and the leadership provided by those most tragically affected. Let us follow the wisdom of the people of Charleston who lost their loved ones. The kind and beautiful family members who spoke at the court hearing on Friday know that this is a deeply personal human tragedy. Their words of grace reminded us that the only remedy for evil is...

If you want an idea about what to make of the overstuffed clown car of people running for the Republican presidential nomination next year, pick up a copy of Hunter S. Thompson’s vital book “Fear and Loathing on the Campaign Trail ‘72.” The most interesting part of it is not Thompson’s signature drug reference-laden prose but in how he described how George McGovern was the surprise winner of the Democratic nomination that year. McGovern won, not by making splashy headlines, but by building organization and through a strategy that focused on what mattered -- convention delegates -- as opposed to...

The newly minted Republican presidential candidacy of billionaire real estate mogul Donald Trump has elicited an on-air chuckle from Jeb Bush, and expressions of horror from conservative pundits George Will and Charles Krauthammer. But Trump has one fan likely to dismay Republican unease at his running. Sarah Palin is a big fan of “the Donald.” http://blog.seattlepi.com/seattlepolitics/2015/06/18/donald-trump-for-president-finds-a-fan-sarah-palin/

Sarah Palin just penned a nice ‘welcome to the race’ message to Donald Trump, praising his accomplishments and telling him he’s doing something right because the press is going ballistic over his candidacy:

@realDonaldTrump - Mr. Trump should know he's doing something right when the malcontents go ballistic in the press! There is no denying Donald J. Trump's accomplishments and drive to create opportunity for every willing American to succeed. His own success is testament to the job-creating achievements made possible when one applies the courageous and tenacious pro-private sector precepts we need to fire up the economy. Trump joins a competitive field of GOP candidates that will duke it out in the arena of ideas and track records, a field representing diverse achievements. This, in contrast with the pro-big government party's practice...

An amazing article written by Victor Davis Hanson was just posted at the National Review that is chock-full of truth on the topics of sexism, racism, and how they are ultimately tied to leftism.  The opening paragraph articulates the truth on Governor Palin (in comparison to Hillary Clinton) in a way I have never seen before: [T]he frequent charge of racism and sexism is predicated not so much on one’s gender and race as on one’s gender, race, and politics. Certainly, few on the left worried much about the slurs against Sarah Palin during and after her vice-presidential run. America’s overclass in the...

Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin praised Jeb Bush on Monday, highlighting his remarks on raising children with special needs. The comments from Palin, who remains a favorite with some grassroots conservatives, come a day after Bush’s official entry to the presidential race. “It was encouraging today to hear Governor Jeb Bush speak directly to an issue that touches so many lives in these challenging times, both culturally and fiscally – raising a child with special needs,” Palin wrote on her Facebook page. “I'm glad Jeb's life was touched by God's purpose-filled children, and hope he continues with a positive message...

Michael Savage, the tough-talking conservative radio show host to millions of Americans had some remarks on a few of the current candidates running for the GOP nomination.  After assessing the names he ran through, he said the following on Governor Palin (who is not a current candidate): I hate to say this, but I’m beginning to think that only Sarah Palin could save America. I would love to see her go up against Hillary Clinton. You think she wouldn’t stand a chance? As far as I know, Sarah Palin’s husband didn’t make hundreds of millions of dollars while Sarah Palin...

"Encouraging to see the strength and diversity the GOP has to offer voters as the 2016 race continues to unfold." – Governor Sarah Palin   Encouraging to see the strength and diversity the GOP has to offer voters as the 2016 race continues to unfold. Unlike the coronation on the left, conservatives can head towards a positive, healthy democratic (small d!) debate on how best to restore America to the beautiful and bold dream our Founders set forth. It was encouraging today to hear Governor Jeb Bush speak directly to an issue that touches so many lives in these challenging times, both...

Rachel Dolezal, the NAACP chapter president who was accused of pretending to be black, said Monday that she would step down.

Sarah Palin has taken to her Facebook page for a typically insightful and nuanced contemplation of the Rachel Dolezal controversy and a thoughtful, complex consideration of race in America. "Our original civil rights freedom fighters are rolling in their graves over the backward steps we've taken lately" But here are the highlights. Ok, I’m sorry. I shouldn’t laugh… this hard. I know this isn’t a victimless crime, what this white chick perpetrated. But it’s a most crystal clear picture of so many screwed up things we’ve let society adopt as the norm. Namely, the practice nowadays of judging someone not...

The secretive, hugely impacting Obamatrade deal is another behind-closed-doors fast-tracked D.C. deal that screams "don't pass it 'til we know what's in it!" Yet politicians are going along to get along, supporting Obama's pet project while ignoring the public's right to know what's in this monumental international trade deal. This, despite the President's track record proving he hasn't got it in him to put American workers first. If Congress hands this secretive deal to Obama on a silver platter, admitting to not even reading it first, then shame on us for letting another one slide. This is fast-tracked, friends. Like...

Former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin is sharing Breitbart News’ story on Facebook, following the close Rules vote ahead of Friday’s final vote on the Trade Promotion Authority (TPA) that would grant President Obama fast-track authority to finish his trade negotiations. She also posted her reaction to the non-transparency this administration has shown in handling the Trans-Pacific Partnership trade deal, which is keeping part of the draft in a secret room on Capitol Hill. “The secretive, hugely impacting Obamatrade deal is another behind-closed-doors fast-tracked D.C. deal that screams “don’t pass it ’til we know what’s in it!” Yet politicians are going...

Inside the marvelous life of a first amendment celebrity.By the time Shaun McCutcheon arrives at the main event, all the good seats are taken. It’s day two of the 2015 Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC)—the annual pilgrimage that right-wing die-hards make to Washington each winter—and 51,000 square feet of ballroom are bustling with would-be presidential candidates and conservative activists: old men in tricornered hats, soldiers in uniform, and women in big government sucks buttons. McCutcheon takes the only empty chair he can find, way in the back behind a college-age woman texting a picture of Louisiana governor Bobby Jindal. While...

Sarah Palin is lashing out at the media for how it has covered the sexual abuse revelations about "19 Kids And Counting" star Josh Duggar while giving "Girls" star Lena Dunham a free pass. Writing on her Facebook page, Palin compared the media storm over Duggar, whose parents confirmed on Fox News this week that he had “improperly touched" some of his sisters when he was a teenager, to that of Dunham, who wrote in her book "Not That Kind of Girl" that, as a 7-year-old child, she gave candy to her 1-year-old sister in exchange for kisses and a...

The Palins compare Lena Dunham to Josh Duggar By Lindsey Kupfer Sarah and Bristol Palin want to know why Josh Duggar‘s admission that he molested his sisters is so different from what Lena Dunham said about touching her younger sibling. “I can’t believe how crazy the media is going over the Duggar family compared to the big fat yawn they gave Lena Dunham when she wrote in her book that she sexually experimented with her sister,” the 24-year-old Palin daughter wrote on her blog. Sarah Palin also called out Dunham on her Facebook page linking back to her daughter’s blog...

These “Clinton Cash” scandals keep piling up; they illustrate the insiders' skewed priorities and disrespect for our great nation. America, these are ultimately YOUR tax dollars at work! (Continued)
