“Appearing to seek”? The president should be impeached not because he did something (show us in the transcript where), but because he “appeared” to do something? How anti-American is that?…
It’s OK for the president to vilify progressive Democratic presidential candidates as filthy socialists, but hobnob with leaders from the two most repressive Communist governments in the world? If this…
His reasoning is couched in a false understanding of real science and reflects the ideology and misrepresentation of fluoride science by a conspiracy group called the Fluoride Action Network. This…

Did you hear about the study performed by consultants hired by staffers that found the staffers were overpaid? Neither did we – because such a thing has never happened, we…
Even in the “Old West,” towns had rules to check your guns and not to open carry. There were, and are, reasons for this. No. 1 is fear. Those choosing…
Their “catastrophic climate change” statements were deceiving, lying and fear-mongering. They stated that hurricanes, because of Dorian (stalled by a high pressure system), are increasing both in numbers and intensity,…
It is disappointing to learn that it was necessary that a revised law, including accountability measures, was required to ensure compliance with the Colorado Reading to Ensure Academic Development Act.…
Since 2015, residents of Maine have been allowed to carry a firearm without any special permit, no background checks. No doubt a dangerous precedent. Maine had the audacity, despite the…
