If course it wasn't. That's a campaign rally attended by Trump's most fervent supporters.

How much longer are people willing to support a lunatic, self-proclaimed "stable genius" as president? "The Pentagon, however, later corroborated Newsweek's report, with spokesperson Navy Captain Brook DeWalt saying "U.S. troops in the vicinity of Kobani came under artillery fire from Turkish...

It's going to get worse as staff concludes the walls are crumbling and they start leaking or cooperating in hopes of getting on the clean side of history. Today's news includes three more developments that will loosen the bricks: Trump's Push to Save Coal is Failing. Coal Demand to Plunge to...

I do not disagree. But even if a full House vote was taken to formally initiate impeachment proceedings, the rules do not require the Speaker to grant subpoena power or the power to call witnesses to the minority party. There is nothing magic about such a vote. I know a number of Republicans...

That's true. Because the total Democratic money raised is spent for the benefit of the individual candidates, the purchasing power of those funds is diluted. That will change after a single candidate is nominated. At that point, we'll have a clearer view of the fundraising indicator. But again...

More movement toward impeachment and removal: "Just over half of voters want President Trump impeached and removed from office, according to a Fox News Poll released Wednesday. (10/9/19) "A new high of 51 percent wants Trump impeached and removed from office, another 4 percent want him...

Because the way it was with Garland was unfair. Denying Obama's nominee a vote in the Senate was an unfair act of malfeasance on McConnell's part. It is an act that merits McConnell's removal from office in my opinion. Your complaint about Pelosi and Republican House member rights in the...

Trump clearly has strong fundraising capability but as I've said before, the candidate with the most money is not always the one who wins. Also note that Trump is the only serious Republican candidate raising money. If you compare his committee recent total to the combined total of the top 5...

Yes, and that's the way it is. The House elected its Speaker and vested certain powers in her. She is exercising those powers under the House rules. Had the American people not taken the House away from the Republican's in 2016 and given it to the Democrats, things would be different. Had the...

Meetings held behind closed doors for security reasons are not secret investigations. Republican members are present and participate in those hearings too. While I want the process to be fair for all, I also want Trump to honor subpoenas properly issued. It is not for him to say whether the...

1. The constitution does not specify the process to be used by the House. It is left to the House itself to decide how to proceed with it's pre-impeachment inquiry. 2. You raise a valid point regarding the fairness of the process to both Republicans and Democrats. 3. What the House is doing is...

Turkey says it wont' bow to US over its Syria plans It appears that Trump's view of himself as the chosen one who has great and unmatched wisdom differs from the view Turkey has of him. To Turkey, Trump is a chump who they can manipulate and bend to their will.

The self-proclaimed "stable genius" speaks again: ",,, if Turkey does anything that I, in my great and unmatched wisdom, consider to be off limits, I will totally destroy and obliterate the Economy of Turkey (I’ve done before!)." Trump has not totally destroyed and obliterated the economy of...

Judge dismisses Trump request to keep taxes secret in New York Trump is using every resource available to him to delay and obstruct every investigation he can. But time and the law is not on his side. Eventually it will all come out and justice will be served. In this New York case, he makes an...

Yes, the president released the transcript (actually a summary, not the transcript itself). But that's only part of the story. The rest of the story is in the whistleblower's complaint, evidence being developed by House investigations, criminal referrals made to the Justice Department by at...

Regarding, Biden, Trump's onslaughts and Biden's flatfooted response (or lack of response) have hurt Biden. That's a side issue. Biden will be the Democratic nominee or not, investigated or not, and/or found in the wrong or not, depending on how events play out. Whatever happens or does not...

The event is significant because the second whistleblower is said to have first-hand knowledge. Trump criticized the first one for having second and third-hand knowledge. If the second whistleblower is as credible as the first, he/she destroys Trump's argument. The argument was ineffective...

ABC News: 2nd Whistleblower Comes Forward Mark Zaid, the attorney representing the whistleblower who sounded the alarm on President Donald Trump's dealings with Ukraine and triggered an impeachment inquiry, tells ABC News that he is now representing a second whistleblower who has spoken with...

While fundraising is certainly an indicator of support it does not follow that the candidate or message with the most money behind it wins. Example: Bernie Sanders. Stronger fundraiser than most but loosing ground in the polls. It's not always the case that the one with the most money wins. Nor...
