Lie No. 1 is the toughness of the "bipartisan" border bill, covered in last week's column. (Quotes on "bipartisan" because not a single congressional Republican supports it, ...

Media: Let’s Blame the Border Crisis on Trump!

The Prosecutor vs. The Felon

I see that Democrats are going with the image of Kamala Harris as a bad-ass prosecutor. Hey, wait! Maybe now they'll finally have an opportunity to mention that Donald Trump is a CONVICTED FELON. Did you know he was found guilty of THIRTY-FOUR FELONIES by a jury? (I'm not sure where, but it must ...
