The bombshell revelation that Hillary Clinton’s campaign and the Democratic National Committee helped fund the controversial anti-Trump dossier last year has lawmakers and the media asking tough questions about how the dubious document was used by the highest levels of U.S. law enforcement – and why Democrats “lied” about its origins. In the midst of…
Hillary Clinton and the Obama administration find themselves at the center of an explosive scandal involving the transfer of 20 percent of all U.S. uranium to Russia via the sale of the Uranium One company, just as nine foreign investors in the deal funneled $145 million to the Clinton Foundation to help grease the wheels.…
Former Clinton spokersperson Brian Fallon ripped Kelly, calling him “odious” for his press briefing today: Gen. Kelly lost his son, who was serving his country, but now he’s working for Trump, so denigrate, shame, and smear him. I know it’s nothing new. I know it’s par for the course, but it’s still appalling that progressives…

In which CNN’s Dana Bash marvels at the deafening silence from Barack and Michelle Obama regarding the sordid and worseningallegations leveled against their political benefactor, Harvey Weinstein. We’re approaching day six of this story, yet we’ve seen nary a Facebook post from a figure who’s happily spouted off on any number of political and cultural controversies since leaving office. Seriously, what…
Vice President Mike Pence walked out during a football game because not all the players stood for the national anthem. The Indianapolis Colts played the San Francisco 49ers. Was this expected—the kneeling? Yes. Was it a PR stunt, as 49ers safety Eric Reid said? Maybe—but who cares? We’re treating this as if the NFL and the Trump administration…
