Welcome to Heartland Diary USA, the new website of Montana author Frank Miele, the former editor of The Daily Inter Lake. Frank’s weekly column on national politics is now published on Mondays at realclearpolitics.com and will also be linked here. “After 14 years of writing my Editor’s 2 Cents column for the Daily Inter Lake
I decided to venture into the Deep Swamp of Fake News today to find out how the left-wing media was reacting to President Trump’s decision to declassify the intelligence that led the CIA and the FBI to spy on his campaign in 2016. I needn’t have bothered. The response was as predictable as the liberal
Does anyone remember any president who was so willing to speak to the press as President Trump? Obviously not, even though the mainstream media has been grossly unfair to him, yet Trump is always willing to engage with reporters such as he did again this morning on his way out of the White House to
Ironically, Theresa May’s resignation as British prime minister may be her greatest triumph as it could be the fuel that leads to the fulfillment of Brexit, the sworn goal of her brief tenure. May’s inability to deliver Brexit — the departure of Britain from the European Union — is largely due to her unwillingness to
Yesterday — May 23, 2019 — may well go down in history as the turning point in the modern civil war being waged against the American people.

She then proceeded to the White House with Sen. Minority Leader Chuck Schumer to talk about plans for an infrastructure spending plan with
Theresa May’s star turn as the indecisive Hamlet of Brexit may soon be over. Three years after Great Britain voted to leave the European Union, Prime Minister May still can’t make up her mind: Is she for independence or against it? Is she for the will of the people or against it? Is she for
CNN, The New York Times, Slate, the Huffington Post, Vanity Fair, and New York Magazine are all reporting that Kris Kobach has made insane demands of President Trump before he would take the job of immigration czar. Normally I would not trust any of those media outlets, but there’s too much evidence of self-sabotaging (and
I woke up this morning, and like usual I turned on “Varney & Co.” on the Fox Business channel. This is better than sunshine. Really! First up is President Trump touting the great and growing economy at a rally last night in Pennsylvania and blasting the “socialist wackos” in the Democrat party. Then Stuart Varney,
