The Houston Texans’ new wide receiver, Kenny Stills, took a knee during the national anthem before his first game playing for the team on Monday. In footage captured of the moment, Stills could be seen kneeling while “The Star Spangled Banner” played ahead of the team’s matchup against the New Orleans Saints on Monday night. The move comes roughly a week after the athlete was traded to the team from the Miami Dolphins.

President Trump said “major consideration” is being given by his administration to designating the far-left antifa movement a terrorist organization, as the city of Portland, Ore., prepares for dueling protests between right-wing demonstrators and antifa on Saturday. “Major consideration is being given to naming ANTIFA an ‘ORGANIZATION OF TERROR,’” the president tweeted. “Portland is being watched very closely. Hopefully the Mayor will be able to properly do his job!”

A move by Twitter to freeze the account of Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell’s (R-Ky.) campaign has prompted a backlash by President Trump’s campaign and national Republican groups, who have vowed to stop buying ads on the social media platform until the account is unfrozen.  On Wednesday, Twitter locked McConnell’s campaign account from further activity as punishment for its sharing of a video of protesters screaming obscenities outside the Kentucky Republican’s home. The social media company said it will not unlock @Team_Mitch unless it agrees to remove the video.  Officials for the Trump campaign, the National Republican Committee, and the...

The twisted tale of the students from Covington Catholic High School in Kentucky who encountered Native American activist Nathan Phillips back on January 19 took another turn on Thursday, when lawyers for the teenagers involved in the incident filed a defamation lawsuit in Kenton County Circuit Court against 12 of the “most egregious high-profile individuals.” The filing came just a few days after a federal judge dismissed a lawsuit on behalf of student Nick Sandmann that could have resulted in the Kentucky teen being awarded $250 million for defamation of character by the Washington Post. Robert Barnes and Kevin Murphy,...

I know Congress is exempt while on the floor, but off the floor they should be vulnerable for damages.

At least one newspaper says it has dropped the syndicated cartoon "Non Sequitur" after a vulgar message to President Donald Trump appeared in it. The Butler Eagle in Pennsylvania reported Sunday that the "shot at President Donald Trump" will cost cartoonist Wiley Miller "his place in the Eagle's Sunday comics." A scribbled message in one panel of that day's cartoon appears to begin with "We fondly say go ..." followed by the message to Trump. Ron Vodenichar, Eagle publisher and general manager, said in the paper that the paper was alerted about the message by a reader and included a...

That's quit alright Face Book….. Put me in your little jail guarded by indoctrinated snowflakes. I'm so honored to be called out and punished (jailed) for being truthful….. it exposes Facebook! I don't mind political correctness getting in the way of my telling the truth. It's a shame that your so called “Community Standards” lean only to the far left while you support their rants and their dishonesty. I'll always share my knowledge and the truth of history for people to hopefully learn what has gone on and what is going on in the world. Paul Revere would have been...

OK I posted two threads in the last week with discussions about the Ford "woman" and DiFi getting censured for making a mockery of the SCOTUS pick process, and bother were deleted. Why? I will grant the first one was iffy (It was about For bragging that she 'pulled the train" in high school) But the 2nd was a valid discussion of Di Fi getting censured for her behavior and removed from the committee. What was wrong with THAT? I posted it in chit/chat

I can't believe that no one sees through this plot to shoot Kavanaugh down. The accusations were carefully constructed with amorphous details to protect the author from libel. In fact Ford has already sued for immunity.To elicit sympathy Ford is portrayed as a confused and helpless victim, rather than the scheming Democrat activist she really is. This whole scenario was constructed by her lawyers to effect the maximum political impact on the female members of the electorate. I say, confirm Kavanaugh and take accusers to court.

We’ve seen this before in 1968 during the Democrat National Convention in Chicago. In 1968 a Democrat was CAUGHT on television yelling the anti-Jewish slur; “F$%k you, you Jew son of a bitch." Does anyone think it impossible to HEAR a Democrat LOOK into a camera and yell, “F$%k you, you conservative son of a bitch," at Judge Brett Kavanaugh? Their antics didn’t end well for the Democrats then; and they won’t end well for them today. The Chicago riots in and around the 1968 Democrat National Convention shocked America. The Democrats’ ugly displays were made worse for them because...

A Louisiana mayor issued a memo last week apparently banning the city’s recreation department from purchasing any Nike products. Kenner City Mayor Ben Zahn appeared to declare on Sept. 5, that “under no circumstances” should Nike products or any product with the Nike logo be purchased, WBRZ 2 reported Saturday. Zahn's office sent the memo to Parks and Recreation Department Director Chad Pitfield on Sept. 5, according to what appears to be a copy of the letter posted to WBRZ. Local news outlets later obtained the memo which appears to state that “effective immediately,” any booster club operating at city...

'This is a clear and present danger to the country.... a soft coup aided and abetted' by the mediaSean Hannity joined President Trump on Friday in urging federal authorities to identify the author of the anonymously written op-ed responsible for rocking the White House this week, calling their conduct a crime worthy of being investigated by the U.S. Secret Service. Discussing the opinion column during his Fox News program, “Hannity,” the conservative commentator and adamant Trump supporter urged the agency responsible for protecting the president to find its author for the sake of national security. “This is a clear and...

White House Press Secretary Sarah Sanders ripped the anonymous senior White House staffer who wrote an op-ed for the New York Times slamming President Trump’s conduct. “The individual behind this piece has chosen to deceive, rather than support, the duly elected President of the United States,” she said in a statement. “He is not putting country first, but putting himself and his ego ahead of the will of the American people.” This coward should do the right thing and resign,” she added. The statement follows criticism from Trump himself, who called the op-ed’s author “gutless.” The author of the op-ed...

This folks is a no brainer, a done deal!!! The present, insane, Democrat Party is doing a fine job of self destructing itself. It needs a bit of aid and assistance from the millions of "Trump Legions & Supporters" across the country. How? Just simply turn out and cast your vote for Trump candidates across the country in the Mid-Term Elections coming up in November, 2018 (09/06/2018). That is all you have to do. So darn it, simply get out there and do it!!! Your future, your families future, your loved ones future, and the nations future is at stake!!!

I'm sick of the Crap News Network and now the Crappers are promoting violence and claiming Antifa is 'Perceived As An African-American Organization,' All of which is totally Crap (FAKE) News. I want to drop CNN from my Cable company....will they do it? Is there an APP out there to delete CNN?

Having watched a lot of baseball (and not much else programming) I have seen so many commercials where the white male is portrayed as dumb, bumbling or stupid while women, children and "people of color" are the wise, composed, and rational. No doubt this marketing approach has been tested and proved acceptable, but I still find myself irritated every time I see it. While boycotting products marketed this way may or may not be effective I have wondered what the impact would be if some creative politically incorrect film maker would produce parodies of these ads where the white male...

I don't have a komando.com account but I listen to her show every week on AM radio. If someone does have a komando.com account, please post a transcript of her show [it played in my locale on 9/2/2018] where she starts off saying that her show has never been political and then starts on an anti-Trump rant.She pretends that she believes that Trump's recent tweets are anti-First Amendment and that Google is not suppressing free-speech. (and if Google is doing so, it's not a problem because Google is a private company and not "the government" thus not a problem)

Share to Google+ President Trump on Thursday vowed that the government would investigate Twitter for allegations that the social media giant has suppressed content from some conservative accounts. "Twitter 'SHADOW BANNING' prominent Republicans. Not good. We will look into this discriminatory and illegal practice at once! Many complaints," Trump tweeted.

Democratic Tennessee Rep. Steve Cohen on Monday called for the “military folks” to save America from President Donald Trump after Trump’s much-criticized press conference with Russian President Vladimir Putin. “Where are our military folks? The Commander in Chief is in the hands of our enemy!” Cohen wrote on Twitter, using language suggestive of a military coup. Cohen later said that he was in no way calling for a coup. “No coup called for,” he wrote, claiming it unlikely that someone would call for a coup on Twitter. Cohen’s bizarre tweet was similar to one from former Obama CIA Director John...
