Tucker Carlson suggests NBC fired Megyn Kelly for drawing attention to internal misconduct
Nearly a year after she was unceremoniously fired by NBC (ostensibly for making insensitive remarks about wearing “blackface”), former Fox News anchor Megyn Kelly returned to the network that brought her fame for a lengthy and engaging interview with Tucker Carlson. While many topics were discussed, Carlson spent some time focused on Kelly’s termination from […]
Barack Obama endorses Justin Trudeau, stays silent on Joe Biden
A key focal point of former Vice President Joe Biden’s campaign for the Democratic Party’s 2020 presidential nomination has been his oft-repeated reminder to everyone that he proudly served alongside former President Barack Obama in the White House for eight years. However, despite Biden’s constant mention of Obama, there has been no reciprocation and Biden […]

Vice President Mike Pence to head ceasefire delegation to Turkey
All eyes are on northeastern Syria right now as the Turkish military has invaded the neighboring war-torn nation ostensibly with the goal of creating a “safe zone” buffer along the border to reduce the potential for future conflict between Turkey and its Kurdish rivals.

One of President Donald Trump’s primary campaign pledges in 2016 was to bring an end to U.S. military involvement in overseas wars, particularly in the Middle East — and despite concerted opposition to that goal from the political establishment and Washington bureaucracy, the president is taking steps toward fulfilling that vow. During a speech delivered […]

Democrat Rep. Nita Lowey to retire at end of 2020
Rep. Nita Lowey (D-NY), a senior member of the House Democratic caucus, has announced she will not run for re-election in 2020.

Sources said that local […]

Even President Donald Trump’s closest advisers aren’t reliably on his side.

Trump says ‘Crooked Hillary Clinton’ should enter 2020 race
With none of the Democrat 2020 presidential candidates truly catching fire and taking a commanding lead among voters, speculation that failed 2016 nominee Hillary Clinton will jump in to make another run at the White House has dramatically increased.

Report: Energy Secretary Rick Perry set to resign in November
While the Trump White House has long been the media’s favorite place to look for alleged wrongdoing, one member of the president’s cabinet has largely stayed above the fray — until now.

2014 photo shows Joe, Hunter Biden on golf course with Ukraine gas company executive
Lost amid all of the uproar over President Donald Trump, Ukraine and impeachment is the fact that the entire story boils down to allegations of corruption and malfeasance involving former Vice President Joe Biden and his son Hunter’s business dealings in Ukraine.

With the Democrat-controlled House of Representatives rushing headlong toward impeachment of President Donald Trump, there has been plenty of speculation about how such an effort would fare in the Republican-controlled Senate, or if that body would in fact hold a trial at all.

Sarah Sanders: The ‘ridiculous’ Democrat impeachment push is fueling Trump’s campaign
Democrats rushed headlong into impeachment proceedings against President Donald Trump on Tuesday, based solely on anonymous reports of a “whistleblower” complaint that was premised on second-hand hearsay.

Senate passes meaningless resolution to cancel Trump’s national emergency on border wall
President Donald Trump tried repeatedly to have Congress appropriate adequate funds for the construction of his famed wall at the U.S.–Mexico border, to no avail.

Predictably, Democrats and establishment Republicans […]
