Dean Flop, Acosta's Conspiracies, Flag Flap |
Dean Flop
Yesterday's House Judiciary Committee hearing featuring former Watergate felon John Dean was a complete flop. Conservative members of the committee were well-prepared and they peppered Dean with tough questions.
Dean has made a career out of attacking every Republican president since Nixon, declaring that some event in their administration was "worse than Watergate."

Under the threat of tariffs, the Mexican government reached an agreement with the United States late Friday to increase their cooperation to secure our border. Kudos to Vice President Mike Pence and Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, who ably represented President Trump in the negotiations.

Politicizing The Fourth Of July
A left-wing Washington Post columnist is REALLY upset with President Trump. (Shocker, right?!)
What's his offense this time? The president plans to deliver a speech at the Lincoln Memorial during the July 4th celebrations. According to this columnist, Trump's presence will be "a stain on the Lincoln Memorial."

Remembering D-Day, Could We Do It Again |
Remembering D-Day
Today at the American cemetery in Normandy, France, President Trump may have reached the rhetorical peak of his presidency. He connected with the deep roots of America and Western Civilization in much the same way he did during his excellent address in Warsaw, Poland.
There have been many speeches by world leaders at Normandy. Most of them are forgettable. On rare occasions, their rhetoric rises to the level of remarkable and inspiring.

Pray For The President
Reverend Franklin Graham is calling on Christians across the country to join together this Sunday, June 2, for a special day of prayer. Specifically, Graham is asking men and women of faith to pray for President Donald Trump.
We are urged to pray for "all those in authority," and I was honored to join Rev. Graham and hundreds of other faith leaders in endorsing this call to prayer for our president and our country. Below is an excerpt of Franklin Graham's statement:

Mueller Speaks
Special Counsel Robert Mueller addressed reporters and the American people for the first time today. He declared that his investigation was over, that his office was closing and that he was resigning from the Justice Department.
Like the investigation and Mueller report itself, today's statement by the special counsel is unlikely to change any minds. Those who want to impeach the president still want to impeach him. Nancy Pelosi is still in a difficult position. Those who want to move on still want to move on.
