House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy did one thing right in the days leading up to Impeachment Wednesday — naming Rep. Jim Jordan to the House Intelligence Committee. Jordan was by far the most aggressive questioner of Ambassador William Taylor and State Department flunky George Kent during the first day of the Sham Impeachment Hearings. He
The Republicans’ lead attorney in the Sham Impeachment Hearing is Steve Castor, a longtime congressional investigator. First impression was that Castor was over his head. He looked a bit hesitant in questioning and had kind of a frumpy look like, you know, he had bought his suit off the rack at JC Penney. I’d never
One of my three questions going into Impeachment Wednesday was which Devin Nunes would show up. I’ve written previously about the historical significance of Nunes as a freedom fighter, but was worried he would be overshadowed by Adam Schiff. Turns out I didn’t have to worry. Based on his opening statement, it was obvious that
All right, I’m trying not to be too cynical, but this blowhard William Taylor is making it hard. Taylor was the unfortunate choice by Secretary of State Pompeo to become acting ambassador to Ukraine in June. He is a Foggy Bottom Deep Stater through and through, as his opening statement revealed today at the Impeachment
Whopper No. 1 from Impeachment Wednesday: In response to a question from Rep. Jim Jordan, Rep. Adam Schiff says, “I do not know the identity of the whistleblower.” Of course, Schiff knows that as a member of Congress, he has free rein to lie when he is acting within his official capacity. But this whopper
Well, I’ve got my coffee and doughnuts and a front-row seat for Impeachment Wednesday, as the Deep State Swampers take the field to challenge the undefeated Swamp Drainers (aka Donald J. Trump and team). What am I looking for? First, which Republicans will show up? If it’s the hands-off, polite and by-the-books Republicans, then the
The social media giants like Facebook, YouTube and Twitter are desperate to steer their users leftward into a world where everyone thinks alike and no dissent is allowed. I’ve been targeted by all three of those giants at least once. Facebook suspended my posting privileges for a week. YouTube has banned one of my videos.
My column at Real Clear Politics today shows how the anti-Trump Resistance, typified by the anonymous author of “A Warning,” follows the pattern set out by a French author in 1928 in “The Treason of the Intellectuals.” It’s the entrenched bureaucracy against the rest of us. “What a tangled web they weaved, when the Deep
Sadly I have now been smacked with a “community standards” violation by YouTube, which is to say Google, for my video of Rand Paul’s outstanding challenge to the media to “Do your job” and name the whistleblower. The video itself did not ever name the whistleblower, but my description did, which apparently violated YouTube’s policy
(EDITOR’S NOTE: I’m turning this space over to a patriot today to honor all of our nation’s veterans. Richard Spencer is a Vietnam War veteran, whom I am proud to call friend. His encouragement is largely responsible for my taking the step of starting this blog after I retired, and he is the author of
