The Kansas City Chiefs and the Houston Texans...plan to make a joint demonstration protesting racial injustice before the start of the game. Both sides discussed the matter and one possibility included both teams staying in the locker room during the national anthem...

The House Judiciary Committee on Wednesday night began the "markup" process for the two articles of impeachment against President Trump that they have settled on, barreling toward a final floor vote even as moderate Democrats have floated the idea of backing down in favor of a censure resolution. Almost immediately, the evening proceedings broke out into fiery disagreement, as the panel's top Democrat declared that it would be unsafe to wait until the 2020 election to remove Trump, while the ranking Republican slammed Democrats for attacking Ukraine's leader because he undercut their case against Trump. "We cannot rely on an...

In pursuit of the ever-popular Beltway sport of False Equivalence, it’s common to see today’s left-bent resistance to Donald Trump compared to right-wing extremist movements of the recent past, from the tea party movement to precincts further off in the fever swamps. This sort of talk is often the product of laziness or malice. But now and then something happens that makes left-right parallels unavoidable and accurate. One such incident, surprisingly, comes from the loose lips of a member of Congress, New York’s Tom Suozzi. According to the New York Post, the Nassau County Democrat had this to say about...

Whether we admire & support this President is irrelevant, the sheer contempt for our sensibilities and American ideals by Democrat operatives is appalling. I’m hardly a drama queen, however, this is actually disturbing me. I can honestly say, that before the election of our 45th President, Donald J Trump, I was disgusted with both our Democrat and Republican leaders. I had invested several decades into vexing the convoluted swamp of Washington politics, in a feeble attempt to make sense of it all. I’d concluded that both parties were venerating the same master, making it appear that we actually had a...

Most of you know the opposition leader in Venezuela today called for the military and people to rise up and overthrow the Maduro Regime. After seeing a few videos earlier of some of the rioting in Venezuela I went to youtube and searched for "venezuela en vivo" and several outlets are live streaming from around Caracas...most of the time it's boring but every once in awhile the tear gas and rock throwing gets intense.... The people are trying to overthrow a Government that has weapons by using sticks and stones..... Lesson #1 NEVER EVER GIVE UP YOUR GUNS like they...

MANCHESTER, N.H. — Actor Alec Baldwin followed up his latest parody portrayal of President Donald Trump with a serious call Sunday night for voters to use the Nov. 6 midterm elections to peacefully "overthrow" the government. After reprising his role as Trump on "Saturday Night Live," Baldwin flew to New Hampshire, where he was the keynote speaker at the New Hampshire Democratic Party's annual fall fundraising dinner. "The way we implement change in America is through elections. We change governments here at home in an orderly and formal way," he said. "In that orderly and formal way and lawful way,...

Collapse: An anonymous op-ed published by The New York Times paints a disturbing picture of POTUS Donald Trump as an unmoored, unprincipled leader whose worst impulses have to be mitigated through secret actions and back channels. There exists, this “senior White House official” says, a “two-track presidency.” But whether or not what the official says is true, Americans may have a legitimate constitutional crisis on our hands because the letter proves without any doubt that this president is a victim of subversion.

Labour’s Shadow Chancellor and right-hand man to party leader Jeremy Corbyn has said it is his “job” to “overthrow capitalism” and “radically” transform society, whilst praising the former leader of socialist Venezuela. John McDonnell repeatedly and emphatically backed bringing down the UK’s system of free enterprise and trade in an interview with the BBC, as well as calling for private firms to hand over their profits to the state. The man who Labour would put in charge of the Treasury, tasked with running Britain’s economy, said he aimed to transform society “in a way that radically changes the system”....

"This is a memo that was sent to President Trump on December 19 2017 and this memo was is what is currently being discussed and represents one of the greatest examples of government betrayal in the history of the United States. This is the intelligence which defined the illegal activity by the Department of Justice by the FBI under Hillary Clinton, Robert Mueller, James Comey, Peter struck, Andrew McCabe Jenny Rhee and a variety of other people that were involved in a coup d’etat against President Trump. So this memo was sent out on December 19th and it originated actually...

After 10 months of leading the FBI’s Trump-Russia investigation, counterintelligence official Peter Strzok had not seen compelling evidence that President Trump or high-level campaign officials colluded with the Russian government, according to a person familiar with his thinking. That account comports with a May 19, 2017 text exchange between Strzok and FBI lawyer Lisa Page that was released earlier this week. “You and I both know the odds are nothing. If I thought it was likely, I’d be there no question. I hesitate in part because of my gut sense and concern that there’s no big there there,” Strzok wrote...

Revolution interrupted. That's how the left views the Trump presidency: as an anomaly, something to be resisted at every turn, even by violent means, until progressives can get the revolution back on track. They see Trump as a threat to their vision of America as an egalitarian, universalist, godless, centralized state, and they believe that extreme rhetoric and action is justified in opposing him. The attack on Rep. Scalise and other Republicans is profoundly disturbing because it was a direct assault on our democratic process. The shooter intended to kill GOP lawmakers so as to shift the balance of power...

You know people can translate what you write no matter the language you write it in, right? The head of the Los Angeles office for the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), Hussam Ayloush, tweeted out a phrase in Arabic for all of his followers on Twitter to replicate.

Trump has said he will identify them as a terrorist group.They've been coming in un-challenged for enough years to have a fair Army, but nothing like the armed citizens of the USA.In a couple of months, we will be at war on our own turf

Hindsight is 20-20 and examining events from the perspective of what could have or should have happened is usually an exercise in futility.Except when the stakes are high and the path that wasn't taken could have altered our current history.We've known for years that the CIA was urging President Obama to arm the largely secular Free Syrian Army in 2012 to give them a chance to overthrow President Bashar Assad of Syria. This was before Syria's use of chemical weapons, before the Islamic State broke away from al-Qaeda, and before the refugee situation that led to a mass exodus from...

43% of Republicans could imagine supporting a military coup in the United States. A law professor at West Point was forced to hastily resign after it emerged that he had authored a number of controversial articles. In one he suggested that legal scholars defending the rights of suspected terrorists could be considered legitimate military targets, while in another he examined a potential military coup in the United States, arguing that officers may have a duty to sieze control of the federal government if the federal government acted against the interest of the country. The United States military has long...

A document released in late May by pro-Muslim Brotherhood clerics incited the Egyptian population to “strive for the complete elimination” of their current government, according to a new report. Calling the military-backed government a “criminal and murderous regime,” the radical clerics said public figures associated with it should be put to death, in accordance with Sharia law. The document also demands the release of Morsi, who it refers to as the “legitimate elected president.” […] “According to the Sharia, it is the duty of the ummah—its leaders and its people—to oppose this regime and strive for its complete elimination by...

The United States dismissed an accusation from Venezuela’s president that Vice President Joe Biden conspired to overthrow him as “patently false,” arguing Monday that President Nicolas Maduro was merely trying to distract the world’s attention from his government’s abuses of basic rights. The exchange of barbs undermined hopes that the U.S. and Venezuela could pursue improved ties following a rapid deterioration of relations last year. Just one month ago, Maduro and Biden shook hands in Brazil in an impromptu meeting in which both leaders expressed an interest in warmer relations. In a televised address over the weekend, Maduro claimed that...

He won't ever repeal Obamacare, refuses to utilize the power-of-the-purse to fight unconstitutional Obama Regime diktats, is likely to stab gun-owners in the back, and worst of all, he's a cheap labor, Chamber-of-Commerce toady, one no more willing to secure the border and slow the hordes pouring-in than any 'progressive' would be... This is a man who has a history of deceiving conservatives in order to win votes and/or retain the gavel, one who will tell you whatever you want to hear. Should this midterm election -landslide or not- be viewed as any different?  We were promised precious little, and...

Also, Former Arab Terrorist Walid Shoebat, author of the book, "Why We Want to Kill You" gives us the latest news headlines in the Arab press, and talks about "Mrs. Mohamed Morsi" the wife of ousted Egyptian President Mohamed Morsi. Apparently, Mrs. Morsi is angry that her husband, along with many other Muslim Brotherhood members, are being held in detention by the new Egyptian government. According to an article posted on Shoebat's website, Mrs. Morsi "admitted in an interview with Turkey’s Anatolia news agency that she sought to excite domestic insurrections to overthrow Abdel Fatah Al-Sisi" and that she collaborated...
