A political faction of Planned Parenthood out of Wisconsin has been fined by the Federal Election Commission for failing to properly report $120,000 in expenditures allocated for the support of Hillary Clinton and Russ Feingold in the 2016 election. According to the FEC report, Planned Parenthood Advocates of Wisconsin filed a report in October of that year that claimed the ...

We really appreciate some of the things this Republican-controlled Congress has been able to get done over the last year+. They passed a beautiful package of tax cuts, they… Hmm. Well, we’re sure they did some other great things over the last fourteen months, because, well, surely they did, right? Yeah, of course they did. We just can’t come up ...

We’re not always huge fans of the government “punishing” private companies for their political stances – we’ve seen the flipside of this in places like Houston, where the Democrats on the city council wanted to deny Chick-Fil-A a permit due to the owners’ stance on LGBT issues and in California, where Los Angeles city officials want to punish any company ...

Nearly 100 7-Eleven stores around the country got a big surprise in the pre-dawn hours of January 10 as Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents came a-knocking, looking for employers who weren’t bothering to make sure their workers were actually U.S. citizens. Of course, even that way of putting it doesn’t get to the heart of the matter, which is that ...

Judging by comments we’ve seen her make on social media in the past, we doubt we’d have much in common – politically – with Jenna Fischer, the former star of NBC’s The Office. She was firmly in the Hillary Clinton camp in the 2016 election and, while she’s less abrasive than many of her Hollywood sisters when it comes to ...

Democrats and their liberal cohorts in the media are putting on their best Grinch impersonations after learning that many of America’s biggest corporations are passing their tax bill savings on to the thousands of workers who make their companies tick. Putting an immediate lie to the left-wing myth that this tax bill will only help the very wealthiest Americans, companies ...

If we had to pick our favorite Democrat in the Senate, the prize would probably have to go to Joe Manchin of West Virginia. This guy is a conservative trapped in a Democrat’s body, and he’s probably further to the right than he’s actually allowed to appear in public. In fact, we’d lay out a good bet that if you ...

This week, the Dow Jones Industrial Average accomplished something for the first time in 121 years: It gained 5,000 points in a single year – the largest gain in value Wall Street has ever seen in a 12-month period. After a 200 point rally on Monday, the news was official, and there was no ignoring the fact that President Donald ...

God, is there anything more insufferable than a liberal Democrat who spends his days preaching the value of all his precious progressive ideas while doing absolutely jack squat to actually implement those ideas when the rubber meets the road? We see this kind of thing constantly from Democrats – including the DNC itself (and the Hillary Clinton campaign, to the ...

There are a number of reasons why Democrats have steadily lost ground in Washington over the last six years, culminating in last November’s electoral shellacking, but one of the biggest is the economy. President Barack Obama presided over one of the slowest, shakiest economic recoveries in American history, all but ensuring that everyone except the very wealthy wound up worse ...
