TodayÂ’s Campaign Update (Because The Campaign Never Ends) Hey, remember 8 days ago, when Rod Rosenstein was going to be fired? When he had resigned? When he had, according to our fake news media, verbally resigned no fewer than five times? Yeah, those were good times, huh? Hey, remember when President Trump ordered the declassification of a bunch of documents that have been requested various congressional committees and stonewalled for more than a year by the DOJ and the FBI? That was, like, 3 weeks ago? Right? Hey, remember when every liberal/leftist/socialist/commie in America was telling us that, if you...

President Trump participated in dubious tax schemes during the 1990s, including instances of outright fraud, that greatly increased the fortune he received from his parents, an investigation by The New York Times has found.Snippets: "The president’s parents, Fred and Mary Trump, transferred well over $1 billion in wealth to their children." and "President Trump had virtually no involvement whatsoever with these matters". Robert Trump, the president's brother: "Our dear father, Fred C. Trump, passed away in June 1999. Our beloved mother, Mary Anne Trump, passed away in August 2000. All appropriate gift and estate tax returns were filed, and the...

Experiencing extreme weather is not enough to convince climate change skeptics than humans are damaging the environment, a new study shows. Political bias and partisan news reporting influence whether people report experiencing certain extreme weather events, the research suggests. But Americans who lived in areas where a variety of extreme events were recorded -- flood, tornado, hurricane, and drought -- were ultimately no more likely to share the same beliefs about climate change as scientists. The University of Exeter, University of Michigan and University of Texas research found that Republicans were less likely to report experiencing a polar vortex, while...

A senior software engineer at Google with responsibility for a key feature of Google’s search engine labeled Tennessee Senate candidate Rep. Marsha Blackburn (R-TN) a “violent thug” and a “terrorist,” who Google shouldn’t “negotiate” with, according to internal emails obtained by Breitbart News. The employee also defended the censorship of her campaign ads on social media. The comments took place in an internal email discussion that began on June 19 this year. The topic of discussion was Rep. Blackburn’s Fox News op-ed of the same month, which urged Silicon Valley companies to address bias against conservatives on their platforms. Blackburn,...

Talk about desperate. On Monday, the New York Times published a shocking report that says Judge Brett Kavanaugh was once questioned by police after he allegedly threw ice at someone in a bar. According to the Times: The incident, which occurred in September 1985 during Mr. Kavanaugh’s junior year, resulted in Mr. Kavanaugh and four other men being questioned by the New Haven Police Department. Mr. Kavanaugh was not arrested, but the police report stated that a 21-year-old man accused Mr. Kavanaugh of throwing ice on him “for some unknown reason.” A witness to the fight said that Chris Dudley,...

Today’s Campaign Update (Because The Campaign Never Ends) The Irish Bob O’Rourke clean-up crew is working overtime these days… – While Democrats on Capitol Hill in Washington are busy making up stories about what a terrible guy Judge Brett Kavanaugh was in high school and college, it turns out that the Democrat challenger to Ted Cruz for the senate seat in Texas really did have an extraordinarily misspent youth. On Monday it was revealed that, at the age of 19, Irish Bob kept busy writing nasty reviews of Broadway musicals for his college newspaper, because of course he did. In...

Today’s Campaign Update (Because The Campaign Never Ends) Hey, remember when all the “experts” were telling you that President Donald Trump could not possibly successfully renegotiate the 25 year-old NAFTA deal? – Yeah, they were wrong about that, too. Donald J. Trump ✔ @realDonaldTrump Late last night, our deadline, we reached a wonderful new Trade Deal with Canada, to be added into the deal already reached with Mexico. The new name will be The United States Mexico Canada Agreement, or USMCA. It is a great deal for all three countries, solves the many...... 5:30 AM - Oct 1, 2018 32.5K...

Joe Farah has always been this forum's friend since the beginning. Chuck Norris runs a column there. Many wonderful people. When I say 'sabotage', I mean it. Six ways to Sunday -- WND is buried. I have a laggy connection, and WND's page is too fancy, a tough load. I use a google cache to go there. WND is buried under tons of junk pages trashing it, and then when I load the cache it malfunctions.

Today’s Campaign Update – Week in Review (Because The Campaign Never Ends) Ok, so shoot me – I didn’t do the Week in Review post yesterday, as some of you have very politely reminded me this morning. The truth is, I just forgot. The Texas Longhorns were playing Kansas State, my little granddaughters were over for the afternoon, and I actually forgot about politics for a few hours. Amazing, right? You bet. So it’s a day late and a dollar short, but lots of stuff happened this week, so let’s get to the Campaign Update Week in Review: It was...

A (spineless) man in his element. – If you’re into punishing yourself, tune into tonight’s “60 Minutes” on CBS, where the Amazing Man With No Spine, Jeff Flake, will appear in a joint interview with Democrat Senator Chris Coons. There you will see a man truly in his element, sitting down and sharing talking points with a Democrat politician and a Democrat activist fake journalist from CBS. View image on Twitter View image on Twitter 60 Minutes ✔ @60Minutes How did the Senate Judiciary Committee arrive at its last-minute compromise to continue the Supreme Court confirmation process of Judge Brett...

Today’s Campaign Update (Because The Campaign Never Ends) Dear Arizona Voters: WHAT IN THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU???? – Don’t blame the Republican Party for what happened in the Senate Judiciary Committee on Friday – blame the voters of Arizona. They’re the ones responsible for giving you Jeff Flake. And not just Flake: They’re also the ones responsible for saddling the country with John McCain in congress for almost 40 years. Think about it: For six years, the entire Arizona delegation to the U.S. Senate consisted of John McCain and Jeff Flake, i.e., RINO and RINO(a). This is who...

The American Bar Association late Thursday urged the Senate Judiciary Committee to delay the vote to confirm Supreme Court Nominee Brett Kavanaugh pending a full FBI investigation, according to multiple reports.

Today’s Campaign Update (Because The Campaign Never Ends) Another Trump tour de force. – One day after giving possibly the greatest pro-America speech ever delivered by any U.S. representative at the United Nations General Assembly, President Donald Trump (I still never tire of typing those three words) conducted one of the most amazing, wide-ranging press conferences ever conducted by a president in an international setting. It was filled with humor, biting commentary on current events, amazing new nuggets of information (such as the President’s preference that oily Rod Rosenstein stay on the job at least for now) and even another...

Beyond Bias: The mainstream press might want to spend less time complaining about President Donald Trump's attacks on them and more time doing a better job. A new survey shows that a substantial majority of Americans think the press is biased, unreliable and out of touch. The Pew Research Center surveyed more than 5,000 Americans — which is a huge number for such polls — to gauge their views on the mainstream news media. The results won't come as a surprise to many on the right. But they should be a clanging wake-up call for journalists and editors, as well...

BREAKING: Senate Judiciary Committee probing new allegation of physical assault against Kavanaugh. He denies.

Today’s Campaign Update – Mid-day Update (Because The Campaign Never Ends) [I received an email this morning containing the text below. If you don’t think many, many women are angered by the Democrats’ shameless, depraved assault on Judge Brett Kavanaugh, you might want to think again after reading this.] =============== I stopped in to a local Chinese restaurant yesterday evening to grab an early dinner. I had been running some late afternoon errands after a busy day of work calls, and my husband was out of town. I was looking forward to a quiet, easy dinner alone with my iPhone,...

Today’s Campaign Update (Because The Campaign Never Ends) Because Hollywood is bankrupt of ideas. – The “new” version of “Murphy Brown” apparently premiered last night, and, at least according to the reviews, nothing has changed except for the fact that all but one or two of the cast qualifies for Medicare. The show itself is still the smug, preachy vehicle for leftist writers and leftist actors to pawn their leftist views off on any poor soul who happens to stumble across CBS in their search for reruns of “Flip or Flop”. Dang it, and I just remembered that the “new”...

The Evening Campaign Update (Because The Campaign Never Ends) President Donald Trump was at the UN on Tuesday. There he delivered one of the most grand, soaring and inspirational speeches ever delivered by a U.S. president. It will be largely ignored and/or mis-portrayed by our fake national news media who hate everything this President says or does, but it will not and cannot be ignored by the array of despotic, globalist thugs and grifters who by and large make up the UN general assembly. The President drew a stark contrast between himself and his four immediate predecessors in the job,...

...is they are destroying their credibility for the next open SCOTUS seats. They should have let this one pass. Who will believe the their tricks next time?

So to sum up, rumors are flying Michael Avenatti, the creepy porn lawyer, locked his Twitter account because his supposed Kavanaugh victim is a prankster off 4Chan that successfully trolled him.
