    Feb 7, 2019

    RICHMOND, Va. - The political crisis in Virginia spun out of control Wednesday when the state's attorney general confessed to putting on blackface in the 1980s and a woman went public with detailed allegations of sexual assault against the lieutenant governor.

  • State of the Union address lacked a coherent vision

    Feb 7, 2019

    President Donald Trump's call for unity during his State of the Union address was a welcome change from his typically combative, divisive mode. But for such a call to ring genuine, Trump will have to follow with strong actions. He should not, as he did during the address, issue a barely veiled threat to the Democratic House against "ridiculous partisan investigations" that, incredibly, he said would jeopardize the nation's economy and could spur retaliation. It is Congress' duty to provide...

  • Putin says Russia developing 'invincible' missiles, but experts say he's bluffing

    Feb 7, 2019

    MOSCOW – Alarmed by the Trump administration's scrapping of a Cold War-era arms control treaty, President Vladimir Putin of Russia has ramped up warnings that his country is developing new hypersonic missiles that will travel at more than five times the speed of sound and will be "invincible." But while instructing his military to expand the launch platforms and sophistication of its rocket arsenal, Putin has also ordered Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu to stay within the limits of existing s...

  • BP: Northwest Angle petition falls short of signature requirement

    Feb 7, 2019

    NORTHWEST ANGLE, Minn. -- The much-ballyhooed petition to make Minnesota’s Northwest Angle part of Canada flopped, garnering only 5,544 of the required 100,000 signatures within 30 days to bring the measure up for White House review. The petition made news in late December and early January, when word of the plan surfaced in the media. The Northwest Angle, of course, is that little piece of Minnesota that juts into Canada and is surrounded by Canada on three sides -- Manitoba to the west and Ontario to the north and east. ht...

  • TRUMP DRIVES SOCIALIST WEDGE IN DEMOCRATIC PARTY DURING SOTU ADDRESS

    Joe Sixpack|Feb 7, 2019

He also dared utter one word which showed the American people the nexus where the old and new Democratic Party meet. That word? Socialism. When Trump boomed, “America will never be a Socialist country”, one side of the aisle stood and applauded loudly. The Democratic establishment – represented by Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi remained seated while half-heartedly applauding, as if they were sitting on a fence...

    Peter Rosenberger|Feb 7, 2019

    While some sat on their hands, others leaped to their feet to applaud President Trump’s soaring appeal during his State of the Union Address for the current Congress to honor its legacy by tackling immense issues. Border security, immigration, AIDS, and pediatric cancer made President Trump’s issues lists worthy of a united American government. Although tackling heavily divisive topics such as socialism and abortion, he omitted a class of 43.5 million unpaid caregivers.
