Jon Karl Denounces ‘Mean-Spirited’ Jokes About Press Sec at WHCD
Saturday night was the annual White House Correspondents’ Dinner and the take away from the event was that comedian Michelle Wolf was a vile person.

The Liberal Media’s Joy Reid Problem

Congress Looks at Social Media Censorship

They didn't repeal Obamacare, and this wretched omnibus bill was an abject surrender. They need an aggressive strategy to fix themselves before the midterms.
