Turns out that on January 19, Senator Bernie Sanders (I-VT) offered a great one.
Hannity.Com just alerted visitors to the “this-is-not-a-joke” news that on the 19th, Senator Sanders Tweeted his support for “national rent control”, which, one can surmise, he believes will lead…
With the predictability of day following night, of dinosaur news networks showing leftist bias, of Elizabeth Warren dropping identity politics into one of her insufferably patronizing, pace-the-platform monologues, a new report confirms that, once more, gun-grab pushers have inspired a spike in firearms sales.
This time, it’s in Virginia.
The state that was home to James Madison, the AUTHOR…
The lead-up to Virginia’s annual rally for the right to keep and bear arms – to be held, as always, on MLK Day (Jan 20) as part of the traditional state “Lobby Day” -- reveals explosive, utterly essential differences between those who breathe the noxious swamp vapors of leftist political propaganda and those who seek the atmosphere of truth.

Last September, Rutgers University-New Brunswick student and Campus Reform correspondent Peter Cordi took on an autobiographical essay assignment for his “Gender, Race, and Sexuality” class.

The pettiness of “little leviathan” -- i.e. local government -- crushing individual rights seems to know no bounds. And this is the case in Prescott Valley, Arizona, where Tawney Baccellia has been set upon by “code enforcers” because, get this, in addition to flying her American flag in her front yard, she flies a “Trump 2020” flag beneath a US flag variant in her back yard.
