Olympics Drama: Gay Athlete Slams Pence with Help of 'Fake News' Media
More controversy has erupted between Mike Pence and another openly gay U.S. athlete at this winter’s Olympic games, all in the name of tolerance and homosexual acceptance. It’s one small step for gays, and one giant, exasperated “Oh, shut up!” for the rest of normal America.

Rob Reiner Says Fighting Trump Is ‘Last Battle of the Civil War’
You really have to credit liberal celebrities for their attempts to dial back the vitriol and heal the differences between us. If only we could find some of those celebs. Instead, we get director Rob Reiner who, in an acceptance speech for his Social Justice Award at the African American Film Critics Association Awards, referred to his issues with the current administration as the “last battle of…

Media Hyperventilate Over Dow 'Crash,' Suggest 'Slump' Coming
The Dow Jones Industrial Average gained more than 5,000 points in a single year for the first time ever in 2017, but liberal journalists and celebs lost sight of those gains when a market pullback took place in early February. They quickly freaked out. Multiple liberal outlets and journalists pounced on the news, coming up with uniquely negative, hyperbolic ways to cherry-pick the data, using…

Alt-Left Insanity: People Not Having Kids Because Climate Change!
Feminist site Jezebel, whose position on abortion is safe, legal and on demand anytime up until tee-ball, brings us a fascinating report about (wait for it!) not having babies. It seems that, “With Environmental Disasters Looming, Many are Choosing Childless Futures.”

'Racism is so American:' NBC Cop Show Tackles Anthem Protests
The February 7 episode of NBC’s Chicago P.D. titled “Anthem” begins with the familiar scene of a student protest over the suspension of two college basketball players for kneeling during the National Anthem. What complicates the story is that the organizer of the Black Lives Matter protest is the child of a Chicago police officer.

SVU: Lawyer Who Euthanized Terminally Ill Infant a 'Decent Man'
Looks like NBC’s Law & Order: SVU still hasn’t learned a bit from last week’s disaster. Somehow, they’ve managed to jump from raping a conservative pundit straight into euthanizing a ten-month-old baby. Safe to say, decency standards have left the room ages ago.

Let’s Limit Spending
Some people have called for a balanced budget amendment to our Constitution as a means of reining in a big-spending Congress. That's a misguided vision, for the simple reason that in any real economic sense, as opposed to an accounting sense, the federal budget is always balanced. The value of what we produced in 2017 -- our gross domestic product -- totaled about $19 trillion.

Matthews Disparages Johnson, Nunes as ‘Munchkins’ Colluding with WH
In the A-Block of Wednesday’s Hardball, MSNBC host Chris Matthews lost his cool in denouncing Republicans like Congressman Devin Nunes (Calif.) and Senator Ron Johnson (Wisc.) as part of a “group of munchkins” being “pushed around and led around” by their staffs and the White House in publishing the controversial intelligence memos and FBI texts.

Erin Burnett Spits Bile As She Tries to Discredit Sen Johnson's Review
CNN’s organizational hypocrisy was on full display Wednesday night as host Erin Burnett kicked off OutFront by declaring that “Republicans are at it again” with their crazy conspiracy theories!

ABC Tries to Tie Trump to People Choosing Not to Take Flu Vaccine
On Wednesday's Good Morning America, ABC correspondent Linsey Davis tried to link President Donald Trump to a controversial religious figure in a way that it is unlikely that the news show would do if it involved a Democratic President instead. Near the end of a report updating viewers on the unusually bad flu season, Davis showed video of evangelist Gloria Copeland suggesting that it was not…
