The former news anchor turned GOP firebrand was seen sitting during the controversial playing of the Black national anthem ahead of the game, which took place Sunday at State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla.—A Florida woman has spent the night in jail after refusing to leave her daughter's side at the hospital. “I stand by my actions 100%. I am not sorry that I made them take me out of there in handcuffs,” Lynn Savage told Action News Jax. Savage refused to leave her daughter's side while she was recovering from brain surgery at the University of Florida Health North. She said her daughter is non-verbal and was partially paralyzed after suffering from a stroke. “I could not in good conscience and good heart leave her bedside not knowing how she was...

Joe Biden held a brief event at the US Constitutional Center on Sunday. He could barely make it to the podium, was panting to regain his breathe and could barely speak when he started his talk.

Hillary Clinton says Bernie Sanders’s reluctance to concede the 2016 Democratic presidential nomination before the party’s convention was disrespectful, hurtful and stood in stark contrast to the way she handled her primary loss to Barack Obama in 2008. “I had such a different experience in ’08,” Clinton said in an interview with the “Pod Save America” podcast that was posted on Tuesday. “Once it was over, it was over. And I quickly endorsed President Obama. I worked really hard to get him elected. I was still arguing with my supporters at the Denver convention, telling people, ‘Don’t be ridiculous. You’ve...

Actor and comedian Tom Arnold claimed Friday that he owns a video of President-elect Donald Trump using racist and crude language during old outtakes for NBC’s “The Apprentice.” “I have the outtakes to 'The Apprentice' where he says every bad thing ever, every offensive, racist thing ever,” Mr. Arnoldtold KIRO Radio’s Dori Monson. “I have that.” He said he didn’t leak the video before the election and doesn’t plan to, because the people who edited it together meant it to be a funny joke and are now “scared to death” of the repercussions.

I know how to be a gracious loser. I could have let it go last week when Kellyanne Conway, Donald Trump’s campaign manager, challenged me to look her in the eye and say she ran a campaign that gave white supremacists a platform. I considered for a split second. I knew you were supposed to be gracious when you come for the post-election forum at Harvard’s Kennedy School of Government. But I decided this was a year where normal rules don’t apply. Speaking the truth was more important. “It did. Kellyanne, it did,” I told her. It’s just a fact....

Miley Cyrus is coming in like a "Wrecking Ball" against Donald Trump. The frontrunner for the GOP presidential nomination – who swept Super Tuesday, winning seven states – has become a fixture on the pop star's Instagram in recent days. "Donald Trump is a f---ing nightmare," Cyrus, 23, captioned a photo of the billionaire Republican on Tuesday. And as she peeked at Trump's strong standing on the Republican delegate leaderboard Tuesday, Cyrus explained that she was "gonna vom / move out da country." But the former Disney star's most emotional post came early Wednesday. Cyrus – who has been enjoying...

Former eBay CEO Meg Whitman says in her new book that, while she has a deep admiration for John McCain, she was frequently troubled by his presidential campaign’s strategic decisions and internal disorganization. Whitman, a national co-chair for the Republican senator’s campaign and top surrogate for him writes in her autobiography “The Power of Many” that her experience with his campaign was “not without frustration.” (snip) “When it came time to choose a running mate, for example, I believed that the times called for the skills of Mitt Romney, because he would have complemented John’s inspirational leadership with the practical...

For Obama, An Unsuccessful Campaign By PETER BAKER October 2, 2009 COPENHAGEN — President Obama not only failed to bring home the gold, he could not even muster the silver or bronze. A dramatic 20-hour mission across the ocean to persuade the International Olympic Committee to give the 2016 Summer Games to Chicago proved such a miscalculation that his adopted hometown finished fourth of four candidate cities. Rarely has a president put his credibility on the line on the world stage in such a personal way and been slapped down so sharply in real time. While Chicago may have lost...

LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - The producers of a global warming documentary starring former Vice President Al Gore have landed a worldwide distribution deal with Paramount Pictures' specialty label, the Viacom Inc.-owned studio said on Tuesday. "An Inconvenient Truth," profiling Gore's campaign to raise awareness about the links between carbon emissions and climate change and making his case for what should be done about it, will open in U.S. theaters on May 26, Paramount said. The release schedule for other territories has not been decided, a studio spokeswoman said. The 95-minute film, which grew out of Gore's lecture circuit PowerPoint presentation...

My son was taken from me when he was only 2 months old because I supposedly "worshiped the devil" in front of him. I am an atheiest. I don't even belive in the devil.

EVERYONE especailly those with families should be aware of this!!! Please visit my sites and sign my petition to...

US Democratic Senator John Kerry says a video message from Osama Bin Laden sealed his defeat in a presidential race dominated by the 9/11 attacks. Mr Kerry told NBC TV his opinion poll lead over President George W Bush fell away after the tape was broadcast. He said national security was the decisive issue in the November 2004 poll, won eventually by President Bush. Osama Bin Laden's video, shown days before the vote, urged Americans to back neither Mr Bush nor Mr Kerry. "Your security does not lie in the hands of Kerry, Bush or al-Qaeda. Your security is in...

I think it's great, don't you? These people deserve it..! Has anyone seen the comedian on HBO, who gave a discription of a "Republican"? Wow was that great, and very very true.

WASHINGTON -- Once upon a time, there was a narrowly defeated presidential nominee who, after licking his wounds over a long period, sat down and examined why he had lost. This former vice president decided he had done it wrong the first time around and vowed if he ran for president again he would profit from his mistakes. He would campaign in a different way, avoiding the errors that had denied him the White House. So says Al Gore now as he masquerades his active re-entry into presidential politics as a book tour. And in so saying, he is merely...

John just said a station employee's wife just called in from the Issaquah Costco asking if her husband wanted an autographed Algore book. She said The tree and Tipper are sitting there and there are only a couple people there to buy books. Bwahahahahah. I thought this was a "best seller." They have another signing tonight at Elliott Bay Books in Seattle. That should draw a little better among Seattle's Lefties.

W A S H I N G T O N, Sept. 26 — Democrat Al Gore, criticizing President Bush as he tests the waters for another possible presidential bid, accused the administration Thursday of an "attack on civil liberties" and ignoring signs that Osama bin Laden had been planning a terrorist attack on U.S. soil. It was the former vice president's second scathing attack on Bush in a week.Speaking at a Democratic fund-raising breakfast in Wilmington, Del., Gore took issue with the administration's handling of intelligence information prior to the Sept. 11 attacks and for its treatment of some terrorism...

Al Gore. State election officials ultimately declared George W. Bush the winner by a margin of 537 votes, but during and after the election dispute, questions remained about the uncounted ballots of 175,010 voters, ballots that had been rejected by error-prone tabulating machines employed in many Florida counties. Confusion and conflict, much of it generated by partisan intrigue, prevented these ballots from being counted during the election controversy. However, in 2001 every uncounted ballot was carefully examined in a scientific study by the University of Chicago, which concluded that when all the votes were counted, more votes had been cast...
