As of now, Donald Trump is scheduled to appear at the Target Center in Minneapolis on Thursday, part of his plan to flip Minnesota to the GOP in 2020. The city wants to make sure he pays for the privilege — through the nose, apparently. The city sent a $530,000 security bill to the venue

As a space nerd and former NASA producer, I’m a fan of what Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos bring to humanity’s efforts in space. They build sexy rockets and they make them fly. They bring some competition and verve, both of which we need to inspire us to get off this planet and inhabit new

Game on. A joint congressional committee had requested a deposition from Gordon Sondland, the US ambassador to the EU, over text exchanges regarding Donald Trump’s actions with Ukraine. That deposition was set for later this morning, until the State Department ordered Sondland not to testify on the issue. It’s the first real indication that the
A lot can happen in 90 seconds. In 2013, it took the flight attendants on Asiana Airlines Flight 214 only 90 seconds to evacuate nearly 300 people off of a plane that had crashed at San Francisco International Airport — despite their personal injuries and the flames and smoke in the cabin. In February 2016,
Just how far does presidential immunity stretch — and just how far should it? That question might get lost in the acute issues surrounding Donald Trump’s challenge to a subpoena for his tax records. Jazz wrote about Donald Trump’s loss earlier today and what it means for his legal situation, but Judge Victor Marrero’s order raises serious
A rule of life is that everything the left touches it ruins: art, music, Christianity, Judaism, race relations, male-female relations, universities, high schools, elementary schools, late-night comedy, sports, liberty, journalism, the Boy Scouts, national economies, language and everything else it influences. The left, not liberalism. (I have written a column and done a PragerU video
Donald Trump’s week got off to a rough start. First his favorite morning show tears into him, and now his favorite pollster seems to be throwing some shade his way. In a hypothetical head-to-head match in 2020, Trump would only get to a 45/45 tie against the woman he vanquished in 2016, according to Rasmussen
On Election Day 2016, Hillary Clinton conceded gracefully, asking America to “give Trump a chance.” That didn’t last long. Months afterward, she came out swinging against the president. Last week, she called him an ”illegitimate president.” On Monday, she claimed he violated his oath of office by pulling U.S. troops back in Syria. Clinton may just
As seen on “Fox & Friends” Former Secret Service agent Dan Bongino called out Sen. Jeff Flake Saturday on Fox & Friends for requesting an FBI investigation into Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh. MORE: https://bit.ly/2NMrxGS
Why does this remind me of the famous Ghostbusters admonition never to cross the streams? I’m sure this is all under control and nothing bad could possibly come of it: In his quest to rewrite the history of the 2016 election, President Trump’s personal attorney has turned to an unusual source of information: Trump’s imprisoned former
It takes a fair bit of digging into this Daily Beast article to get to Adam Schiff’s attempt to backpedal from being caught in a series of prevarications. The article’s headline emphasizes that Donald Trump had decided to “take a hatchet to Adam Schiff,” and talks about Trump’s strategy to make the House Intel chair
Joe Biden officially entered the 2020 presidential election in the wake of multiple allegations of inappropriate touching. Some believed that Democrats already in the race had somehow orchestrated these allegations, but when Biden finally entered the race, none of his opponents seemed to call him out on his inappropriate behavior. Kamala Harris did go after
Now has the summer of our middling economic content extended into the autumn. Job creation in September continued its slowing pace, only adding 136,000 jobs to the US economy, while wages stagnated. The good news is that the unemployment rate dropped to 3.5%, a change made even better since it isn’t tied to any exodus
Wait long enough, and everything comes around again. Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-Mich.), one of the wokest womyn in the world, has this week blazed bold new trails by calling for the revival of not one, but two tried-and-true practices that have inexplicably fallen into neglect in American politics: Jim Crow segregation laws and the arrest
The good news is it sounds like Bernie Sanders survived his heart attack and subsequent corrective surgery quite well and is on the road to recovery. And just for the record, his campaign confirmed yesterday that it was indeed a heart attack, though they chose the more clinical description of myocardial infarction. He’s already out
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) probably says and tweets more remarkably ignorant things than anyone in Congress — perhaps more than anyone in the United States. Her latest attack on President Trump regarding his attacks on California Democrat Adam Schiff may be her dumbest hot-take yet. Understand that Trump is engaged in deliberate, atrocious, targeted antisemitism
Another directive from the White House came out yesterday and it’s sure to have immigration activists setting their hair on fire. Beginning on November 3rd, prospective immigrants applying for a vis to enter the United States will need to be able to demonstrate that they have health insurance or the financial means to pay for
At first glance this looks like a briar-patch strategy, and to some extent it might be, but it’s also a tactical move intended to legitimize the next phase of White House strategy. According to both Fox News and Axios, Donald Trump will send Nancy Pelosi a letter today essentially daring her to hold a full

Stop us if you’ve heard this before. A whistleblower with second- or third-hand information alleges wrongdoing within the Trump administration. It gets leaked with allegations that the administration tried to quash it, only to find out that the House committee had the relevant information for months. Get ready for Whistleblower II: Audit Boogaloo: An Internal
Get ready for another round of Partisan Rorschach. Overnight, three House Democratic committee chairs released texts between State Department officials to show that the Trump administration leveraged aid and access to Ukraine in exchange for dirt on Burisma and by extension Hunter and Joe Biden. Those inclined to agree with Adam Schiff, Eliot Engel, and
Oh, we all know why. It’s still good to see some acknowledgment of the strategy on mainstream media sites. Writing at The Hill, liberal legal analyst Jonathan Turley scolds Democrats and media outlets for attacking Attorney General William Barr needlessly on their Shermanesque march to the Impeachment Sea: With all of the breathless headlines of the
Texas Gov. Greg Abbott today opened a new front in the battle for Austin’s streets. Austin, the deeply blue capital of red Texas, implemented a policy change on July 1 allowing the homeless to camp out nearly anywhere they want around the city. I’ve previously written about the policy here, here, here, and here. Since
A former member of Obama’s National Finance Committee Don Peebles says Wall Street donors would be fools to support Elizabeth Warren because she has vilified them and the free-market system. #FoxNews FOX News operates the FOX News Channel (FNC), FOX Business Network (FBN), FOX News Radio, FOX News Headlines 24/7, FOXNews.com and the direct-to-consumer streaming
It’s not another iteration of Pow Wow Chow or high cheekbones, but it might point to another credibility and authenticity issue for Elizabeth Warren. While Warren talks about her life of enduring gender discrimination, a progressive journalist has dug up an old interview which strongly suggests that Warren has engaged in yet even more fabulism
If you’re looking for dirt on a political opponent, and you’re willing to go outside the U.S. to find it, one of the best places to look is Ukraine. It should be no surprise that Ukraine played a role in the Robert Mueller investigation, that Joe Biden’s son Hunter found an extremely lucrative position in

The NY Times reports that, as some people has already guessed, Rep. Adam Schiff had advance knowledge of the whistleblower complaint against President Trump: The Democratic head of the House Intelligence Committee, Representative Adam B. Schiff of California, learned about the outlines of a C.I.A. officer’s concerns that President Trump had abused his power days
The Democrats’ purported outrage about President Donald Trump’s phone call with Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelensky might be taken seriously by the Republicans were it not for the Democrats’ drive to oust Trump from the moment he won the presidency. CNN’s Van Jones, with zero proof, attributed Trump’s victory to “whitelash.” Trump received 57% of the
