Fighting back tears Wednesday Sen. Tom Coburn (R-Okla.) used his final words to the U.S. Senate to warn his colleagues of perils he perceives to the continued existence of the United States as a republic – but also to deliver a message of hope.

After thanking a number of Senate members and personal staff, Coburn quickly turned to a more serious topic reminding the dozens of his colleagues gathered for the speech that most republics in history have perished. Strict adherence to the Constitution and the founders’ intent, Coburn said, was the only way the U.S. could buck that trend.

“Can we cheat history?” he asked rhetorically. “Can we do something better than has been done in the past?

“I honestly believe we can,” continued Coburn. “But I don’t believe we can if we continue to ignore the wisdom of our founding documents.”

Coburn went on to issue a warning to his colleagues, suggesting many had abandoned their responsibility to protect and defend the Constitution, instead focusing their work on bringing back federal monies to their home states.

WATCH: Couric Interviews New Face of GOP – Youngest Lawmaker

December 11, 2014/3 Comments/in Featured, Video /by Gabriel Noble

Yahoo News

Thanks to a bloodbath in the midterm elections, Republicans now control both the House and Senate, and they are setting their sights on the White House for 2016. They are undoubtedly energized by young and diverse representatives such as Mia Love, the first African American Republican woman in the House, and Elise Stefanik, the youngest woman to be elected to Congress.

In West Virginia, Saira Blair won a seat in House of Delegates, becoming the nation’s youngest elected state legislator.

Blair and her father, state Sen. Craig Blair, sat down with Yahoo Global News anchor Katie Couric to discuss her inspiration to run, her historic win, and hope for her generation in the political process. “My generation is going to have $17 trillion of debt on our hands. And we deserve at least one vote in the House of Delegates. Because we shouldn’t have to wait until we’re 30, 40, 50 or 60 to understand the importance of conservative principles,” Blair said.

WATCH: Senator Ridicules Obama for Not Signing Amnesty Order

December 9, 2014/2 Comments/in Featured, Video /by Garth Kant

Sen. Jeff Sessions, R-Ala., a leading opponent of President Obama’s move to provide amnesty for up to 5 million illegal immigrants, expressed astonishment Monday and ridiculed the administration for not carrying out the action through an executive order.

In remarks made at the Washington office of the government-watchdog group Judicial Watch, Sessions said: “I guess they just whispered in the ear of (DHS Director) Jeh Johnson over at Homeland Security, ‘Just put out a memo. That way we don’t have to enforce the law.’”

The news that Obama had not signed an executive order to carry out the policy he announced to the nation in a televised address Nov. 20 was broken by WND Senior Staff Writer Jerome Corsi last week.

As a result of the president’s use of a memo instead of an official order, the senator observed: “We don’t even have a really significant, direct, legal direction that we can ascertain, precisely what the president is doing. It’s a stunning event in my view.”

The senator believes the result was “the creation of a new, alternative immigration system” despite the fact the president “is not empowered to do that.”

WATCH: After Ferguson Protester Burns an American Flag – These National Guardsmen Do Something Incredible

December 7, 2014/13 Comments/in Featured, Video /by News Editor

By Brian Hayes.

Saturday night in Ferguson, Missouri, Communist and ‘Palestinian’ protesters came to town and descended on the police station…

They chanted for the National Guard troops guarding the station to “turn your guns around and shoot the bosses down” — meaning to kill the police inside, causing even some in the media to gasp in shock.

And then they did a truly vile act: they burned an American flag and taunted the troops while doing it.

The protesters reveled in their hatred for America.

But those who faced off with these “protesters” love America, and showed it in an incredible display of patriotism and respect for that flag, and those who died fighting beneath it.

They left their post at the police station, and went across the street to where these vile protesters were gathered — to try and retrieve that flag.

Former NBA Star Charles Barkley Slams Ferguson Rioters, Leftstream Media and Obama

By Jennifer Burke.

One thing you can say about former NBA star and current analyst Charles Barkley is that he is not afraid to speak his mind. Like many other celebrities, Barkley has spoken out about the decision by a Ferguson grand jury to not indict Officer Darren Wilson in the death of Michael Brown and the aftermath that has ensued. However, Barkley’s stance may come as a surprise to some.

During an interview on 97.5 The Fanatic in Philadelphia with Mike Missanelli on Tuesday, the day after the decision was announced, Barkley was asked to share his thoughts on Ferguson. Missanelli asked Barkley why he thought black people didn’t trust the Ferguson decision. Mind you, this is a loaded question to begin with because the radio host has lumped black people together in one collective group who all possess the same feelings and reactions to the decision. Barkley’s answer undoubtedly surprised the radio host.

Unlike others who have ignored the evidence and grand jury testimony as they perpetuate the ‘hands up, don’t shoot’ lie while destroying private property and endangering innocent people by blocking traffic and overtaking malls, Barkley thinks it is important to pay attention to the testimony given to the grand jury because that is what tells the true story.

Trey Gowdy Take Down: Watch Him Unload on Immigration Witness

December 7, 2014/4 Comments/in Featured, Video /by Jerome Hudson

U.S. Rep. Trey Gowdy, (R-SC) tore into Congressional witness Marielena Hincapie, who suggested Republicans opposed President Obama’s amnesty order because of the color of his skin.

Hincapie apparently made the race-based claim while answering a question posed by a Democratic rep. earlier in the Judiciary Committee hearing on the legality of Obama’s amnesty order.

Marielena Hincapie is executive director of the National Immigration Law Center.

And when it was his turn to grill the witness, Gowdy took about a minute of his five minute allotment to address Hincapie’s racism claim.

A man dressed up in a “fake” Army Ranger uniform who was shopping in a Pennsylvania mall on Black Friday got more than he bargained for when an actual veteran confronted him in the middle of the shopping center.

The painful exchange was caught on video and occurred at the Oxford Valley Mall in Langhorne, Penn.

In the video, Ryan Berk, a former Infantryman from Easy Company, 2/506 Infantry, 101st Airborne Division, calls over the uniformed man, who is wearing a nameplate that reads “Yetman.”

“Hey sir, my son would like to meet you,” says Berk, using the introduction as a ploy to confront Yetman. “He really admires guys in the Army.”

Yetman introduces himself as Sean.

Mark Levin Wows State Legislators: 'Take Your Power Back' (+video)

Conservative talkradio host Mark Levin made news Thursday when he addressed the annual conference of the American Legislative Exchange Council (ALEC), a “non-partisan membership association of state lawmakers,” and it wasn’t just because he reiterated his call for an Article V “Convention of the States” to propose new amendments to the Constitution.

Levin’s call for an Article V Convention of the States has been well known since the publication of his best-selling book, The Liberty Amendments, more than a year ago.

On Thursday, Levin framed the Article V Convention of the States as the beginning of the process in which state legislators can reassert their constitutional power and become, in effect, the kind of check on the out-of-control federal government the framers expected the three branches of federal government they created in the Constitution would be on each other.

“Take your power back,” Levin told the enthusiastic crowd of state legislators from around the country.

Critics who claim an Article V Convention could become a “Runaway Constitutional Convention” miss the point entirely, Levin said. Critics think such a convention would have no impact, as the federal government is ignoring the Constitution already and would have little reason to observe any amendments, subsequently ratified by the states, that emerged from the Convention of the States.

WATCH: Eric Garner’s Death Wasn’t An Issue Of Race, Says His Daughter

December 6, 2014/1 Comment/in Featured, Video /by JIM TREACHER

Erica Garner is black, so the following can’t be racist. She’s the man’s daughter, so you can hardly accuse her of not caring. But I’m sure her opinion is invalid for some other reason. It’s simply not what she’s supposed to think.

Here she is talking to CNN’s Don Lemon, who’s clearly taken aback by her resistance to groupthink:

'If You Know Gun Enthusiasts, Turn Them In': Austin Police Chief Says Cops Need to 'Vet' Gun Owners

December 5, 2014/5 Comments/in Featured, Video /by Doug Giles

Post by myFOXaustin.

FYI, Mr. Acevedo, you don’t get to “vet” people. You exist to enforce laws – not to have people pass your little politically correct, anti-gun litmus test, as one reader wrote. Also, everyone and their dog in Texas is a gun enthusiast so … good luck.
