| Obama's Guest List, The Day's News, Rewarding China, Values Voter Summit |
Obama's Guest List President Obama met with Alek Skarlatos, Spencer Stone and Anthony Sadler at the White House yesterday. It's about time. Skarlatos, Stone and Sadler are the American heroes who tackled a radical Islamist on a French train four weeks ago, saving scores of lives. While Obama praised their courage, his statement completely ignored the attacker's motives. Never once did the words "radical Islam" or "jihad" cross his lips. Nevertheless, it was a good a photo-op, which the White House needs given the brewing controversy with the Vatican. |
| Second GOP Debate, The Iran Deal |
The Second GOP Debate Last night's Republican presidential debate -- a three-hour marathon with 11 candidates -- was quite a show. Preliminary numbers suggest that 20 million people tuned in. Prior to last night, CNN's highest rated presidential primary debate featured Obama and Clinton battling it out in January 2008 with just over 8 million viewers. That tells you something. There is a lot of energy among conservatives and interest in the GOP candidates. How much is due to Donald Trump's presence on the stage? |
| Debate Night, What Is Happening, WWJD, Al Qaeda & Iran |
Debate Night Don't forget tonight's Republican presidential debates on CNN. The "happy hour" debate begins at 6:00 p.m. ET and the main debate will follow at 8:00 p.m. Foreign policy is expected to be the dominant topic in tonight's debate, and the items below will explain why. What Is Happening? The Washington political establishment largely views immigration as an economic issue. In their view, more workers, no matter where they come from, equal more taxpayers and greater economic growth. |
| Kerry's Credibility, Left-wing Activist Kills Cop, Muslim Migration |
Kerry's Credibility As you know, Secretary of State John Kerry was our chief appeaser -- Whoops! I mean negotiator -- during the Iranian nuclear talks. We and other critics of the deal believe Kerry was fleeced by his Iranian counterparts. |
| Europe's Refugee Crisis, British "Progressives" Turn Hard Left, Poll Position, No Fear |
Europe's Refugee Crisis The refugee crisis bedeviling Europe has dominated headlines for the past week. European nations are struggling to manage the flood of humanity and they have responded in varying ways. Last week, President Obama committed America to taking in 10,000 more refugees from Syria, but there are hints the figure could be closer to 100,000. Here are some brief observations on this crisis: |
| Never Forget, Putin Pushes Russian Power, Stop The Insults, L'Shanah Tovah |
Never Forget It is hard to believe that 14 years have passed since the 9/11 attacks. Today is a good day to talk to your children and grandchildren who, in many cases, were not alive or were too young to understand what happened or why. Unfortunately, all too often, they are getting a warped analysis of that day. Some colleges are actually teaching about 9/11 from the perspective of the hijackers. |
| Boehner Changes Course, Iran Deal Is Crazy, National Security Scandals, Poll Position |
Boehner Changes Course On Iran As Americans rallied on Capitol Hill demanding more resistance to the Iran nuclear deal, Speaker John Boehner changed course late yesterday. There is a growing consensus that President Obama failed to meet his legal obligations under the Iran Nuclear Review Act, so the speaker scrapped plans for just one vote. The House will reportedly vote on three resolutions: |
| Tea Time For Iran Debate, Governors Push Back, The People Vs. The Politicians, Iran's Supreme Leader |
Tea Time For Iran Debate President Obama's nuclear deal with Iran got the Tea Party treatment today. Americans concerned about our security and Israel's turned out on Capitol Hill this afternoon for a huge rally warning against this terrible deal. It featured Glenn Beck, Ted Cruz, Mark Levin, Sarah Palin, Phil Robertson, Donald Trump and many others. I also spoke at the rally and did a live interview with the Fox Business Network as the event was getting underway. |
| Obama Breaks Law He Signed, Don't Give Up, Christians & The Law |
Obama Breaks Law He Signed A county clerk in Kentucky spent the holiday weekend in jail for refusing to follow the law. (More on that below.) But President Obama is also refusing to follow a law that he signed. |
| Obama Wins; America Loses, Servergate Gets Serious, Poll Position |
Obama Wins; America Loses Yesterday, Maryland Senator Barbara Mikulski became the 34th senator to support the Iranian nuclear deal. Her support gives President Obama the votes needed to sustain his veto of a congressional resolution disapproving the deal. That means this terrible deal will likely go into effect. |
