Everyone, let’s have a big round of applause for Joe Biden! He’s the gift that keeps on giving. Not only is he a constant, ridiculous, gaffe-machine – he’s also one of the Democrats’ best and brightest hopes for 2020. For many, Crazy Uncle Joe represents just the right balance between genuine lefty and genial, blue-collar, every man. They think he can capture some of the populism, and patriotism, that propelled Trump to victory.

Chuck is scared, y’all.
For the last two weeks, Democrats have been demanding that Brett Kavanaugh’s accuser be allowed to testify before the Senate Judiciary Committee. During that time, they’ve stalled, delayed, and offered a whole host of ridiculous excuses about why Christine Blasey Ford shouldn’t be forced to appear. She’s afraid of flying, doesn’t like the people who might question her, doesn’t care for the press, etc. After all of that, we STILL don’t know if she’s actually going to show up on Thursday. A confirmation vote has been scheduled for Friday, but no one has any idea if it will take place.
Uh-oh. The Democrats have a little bit of a Lisa Page problem.
As you know, Democrats have spent months portraying FBI lovebirds Peter Strzok and Lisa Page as good, honest, morally-upright agents who tried to do the right thing and were railroaded by an evil monster known as Donald Trump. Any effort to impugn their pre-and-post election efforts is met with a Democrat chorus singing “how dare you besmirch these heroes!”
UPDATE 3: After a day of “will they won’t they” that would put Ross and Rachel to shame, It turns out “they won’t” – at least for now. No one seems entirely sure what when down today at the White House, but the official story is coming to us via Press Secretary Sarah Sanders:
By now you’re probably aware of Deborah Ramirez. She’s the latest individual to offer dubious claims about SCOTUS nominee Brett Kavanaugh. As the New York times reports, her claim stems from an alleged incident that supposedly took place during a freshman year college party.
She may not have intended to do so, but Senator Mazie Hirono (D-HI) just made the Dems’ position on the Kavanaugh accusations crystal clear. If they don’t agree with your political viewpoint, they will not offer you presumption of innocence. If you’re a conservative, they will ruin your life based solely on an accusation. No corroborating evidence is necessary, no witnesses are needed, no proof will be required.
Every now and then, a conservative will say of CNN: “Even a broken clock is right twice a day.” I don’t buy this line of thinking, because the word “broken” would imply that CNN was once functional. It wasn’t.
If you were to make a list of everything that’s wrong with Washington, the phrase ‘politicians care to much about what voters want’ would probably not make an appearance. Usually, the knock against D.C. is exactly the opposite.
As you’re no doubt aware; on Monday President Trump ordered the declassification and release of myriad documents relating to the Carter Page FISA application and the “Russian collusion” charade. This material includes portions of the application itself, FBI reports of all interviews conducted in conjunction with the application (particularly Bruce Ohr) and thousands of text messages from Strzok, Page, Comey, and McCabe.
Hillary Clinton was, without question, one of the worst presidential candidates in history. At this point, there’s just no way to deny it. Her unpleasant demeanor, arrogance, myopic strategy, and presumptuous belief that she couldn’t fail congealed into one of the most atrocious campaigns anyone has ever seen. Heck, even people who wanted her to win admit that she was, quite simply, the worst.
If geriatric coot Bernie Sanders is really going to
The prevailing Democrat wisdom (if such a thing exists) is that “Bernie woulda won.” Everyone, they claim, was just champing at the bit to embrace Bernie’s curmudgeon act. Leftists, socialists, and progressives are certain that – had their party not shafted him – the Vermont Senator would have defeated Donald Trump in a landslide.
Michael Moore has had a tough couple of years. Please note; that’s not sympathy. It’s just a statement of fact.
His Broadway show went down in flames, the man he considers to be one of the worst people on Earth demolished his political party, and his movies don’t enjoy the accolades (or box office receipts) that they used to.
Remember Arizona Democrat Rep. Ruben Gallego? He’s the guy who 
It’s no secret that there are a few Republican Senators who’ve raised the ire of conservatives. Folks like Murkowski, McCain, and Susan Collins have shown an almost preternatural ability to get under conservatives’ skin – voting against their own supposed ideals and propping up left-wing goals at every turn. We do not, however, attack them.
Earlier, 
Everywhere you look, you see them: Panicked progressives and NeverTrumpers, running wild in the streets, screaming that the sky is falling. America – democracy itself – is doomed and soon we will awaken to find ourselves in a post-apocalyptic Mad Max hellscape. Once powerful pols and pundits will roam the barren land searching for seersucker and bowties, trying desperately to organize the kind of cocktail parties they used to enjoy.
Since day one, I’ve said that the confirmation of Brett Kavanaugh was a fait accompli. Barring a political miracle/disaster, I argued that Kavanaugh had a 100% chance of being the next Supreme Court Justice. his record was clear and there was simply no coherent way to deny his appointment. Red state Dems couldn’t afford to vote against him and, even if they wanted to, Harry Reid’s nuclear option probably ensured that the GOP already had the votes.
Just….wow. There are hot takes, and then there are takes so hot that you need an asbestos suit just to get near them without being incinerated. These aren’t ordinary hot takes. No, sir. These are takes that can’t be handled unless you have a pair of those giant iron tongs that blacksmith’s use to dunk red hot horseshoes in water.
