New Poll Has Great News for President Trump

According to a new Hill-HarrisX survey released on Monday, a majority of registered voters are now open to re-electing President Trump. In even better news for Trump, the survey was conducted before the submission of special counsel Robert Mueller’s report that exonerated the president of any possible Russian “collusion” allegations stemming from the 2016 presidential election.

The Hill reports:

Fifty-four percent in the Hill-HarrisX survey released Monday said they would think about voting for Trump, though 46 percent of registered voters said they would not even consider casting a ballot for the president.

The polling was conducted before a summary of special counsel Robert Mueller’s conclusions was released on Sunday by Attorney General William Barr. That summary reported that Mueller did not find evidence of collusion between Trump’s campaign and Russia, a huge win for the president.

. . .

Trump’s re-election will also likely be made either easier or more difficult by the presidential nominee that Democratic Party primary voters ultimately select. As Henry Olsen of the Ethics and Public Policy Center demonstrated earlier this month in The Washington Post, Trump’s head-to-head numbers in key battleground states increase in direct proportion to the increased leftism of his possible Democratic opponent.

Barbara Bush Gave up Her Republican Status Because She Hated Trump

According to USA Today’s Susan Page, Barbara Bush told her that she blamed President Donald Trump for a “heart attack.”

“It wasn’t technically a heart attack,” Page wrote. “Though she called it that. It was a crisis in her long battle with congestive heart failure and chronic pulmonary disease that hit her like a sledgehammer one day in June 2016. An ambulance was called to take her to the hospital.”

Page is the author of the upcoming book, “The Matriarch: Barbara Bush and the Making of an American Dynasty,” which Twelve Books will publish Apr. 2. Page met with the former first lady and learned that she no longer considered herself a Republican. . .

“That was a stunning acknowledgment,” Page wrote. “Barbara Bush had been one of the most recognizable faces of the Republican Party through two presidencies. She was the matriarch of one of the GOP’s leading families. But after Trump’s rise, she saw it as a party she could not continue to support, a party she no longer recognized – even as one of her grandsons, George P. Bush, was on the ballot as a Republican running for re-election as Texas land commissioner.”

Bush had negative opinions about Trump since the 1990s, where she wrote in her diary how he was, “The real symbol of greed in the 80s.” When her son, Jeb Bush, ran for the 2016 election she campaigned for him. Page said that he felt he was in trouble after losing the Iowa caucuses.

Dem Has a Secret Weapon for Obtaining the Full Mueller Report

By Townhall. House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jerry Nadler (D-NY) on Sunday reiterated one important fact: Democrats in the House of Representatives are prepared to subpoena Special Counsel Robert Mueller and Attorney General William Barr in order to obtain a full copy of the Mueller report. Nadler and his colleagues from five other committees sent a letter on Friday saying they expected “full transparency.”

But Nadler took the sentiment a step further, saying he’s prepared to go to the Supreme Court of the United States, if he must, in order for the Muller report to be made public.

“We’ll try to negotiate. We’ll try everything else first, but if we have to, yes, we will certainly issue subpoenas to get that information,” Nadler told CNN’s Dana Bash.

“And you’re going to be willing to take that all the way to the Supreme Court if you have to?” Bash asked.

“Absolutely,” Nadler replied without hesitation. (Read more from “Dem Has a Secret Weapon for Obtaining the Full Mueller Report” HERE)

Nadler Vows to Subpoena, Take Fight to Supreme Court to Get Full Mueller Report

By The Washington Examiner. House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jerry Nadler, D-N.Y., vowed to take the fight over getting special counsel Robert Mueller’s full report released to the public all the way to the Supreme Court.

In an appearance on CNN’s “State of the Union” Sunday, Nadler said House Democrats are poised to issue subpoenas and would “absolutely” take the matter to the high court if necessary.

“We’ll try to negotiate. We’ll try everything else first, but if we have to, yes, we will certainly issue subpoenas to get that information,” Nadler said.

When asked how long he would give the Justice Department to turn over the full report, Nadler said “it won’t be months.”

Nadler said he is inclined to accept at face value Attorney General William Barr’s characterization of the report, which is expected to be given to Congress in the form of a summary as early as Sunday. However, Nadler said the summary isn’t nearly as important as getting the full report out because different people can interpret findings and data differently.

Trump Kids Just Dropped a Major Truth Bomb on the Mainstream Media

After Attorney General William Barr vindicated President Donald Trump of colluding with Russia, Eric and Donald Trump Jr. slammed the mainstream media for pushing the collusion theory over the last 22 months. Specifically, the two brothers called out CNN and MSNBC for their “fake news” reporting.

But more than anything, the Trump brothers want an apology:

. . .

Ivanka retweeted her father and then provided her own simple statement on being vindicated:

The sad part of this scenario: it’s very unlikely that the mainstream media will stay they were wrong about the collusion theory. (Read more from “Trump Kids Just Dropped a Major Truth Bomb on the Mainstream Media” HERE)

The Sick Dehumanization of Trump Supporters

If you want firsthand experience of what it’s like to be discriminated against, all you have to do is put on a MAGA hat and walk down the street.

At best, you’ll get some dirty glares. You might be denied service, à la 1960s lunch counters. You might get your hat knocked off. At worst, you’ll get blamed for your own son’s death. That is what happened to BlazeTV host Eric Bolling while he was minding his own business recently at the Trump Hotel in Washington, D.C.

This pathetic excuse of a human being came up to Bolling and said, “Eric Bolling’s son killed himself because he was embarrassed by his dad,” according to the host. Eric’s son, Eric Chase Bolling, died in 2017 from an accidental drug overdose.

Video captured a man who appeared gleeful, even proud of what had just occurred. That is because Trump supporters are viewed by leftists as subhuman beings whose very existence makes them justifiable targets for physical or verbal assault.

At the time, Eric was hanging out with Hayden Williams, another Trump supporter who was recently punched in the face by an unhinged leftist at UC Berkeley due to his support for the president.

See the pattern? What’s worse is that these leftists pretend to be civil rights warriors while subjecting people to the same kind of disgusting, discriminatory behavior Republicans fought to end in the 1960s.

It used to be that discrimination was fast becoming a thing of the past. It would only pop up when shameless race-hustlers tried to make excuses for belligerent criminals like OJ while knowing full well race had nothing to do with it. When liberals tried to paint attacks on Obama’s Marxism as racist, I used to remind them, “I’m a black guy who grew up in the ’90s and I have never been discriminated against a day in my life. It’s not about Obama’s skin color. It’s about his crappy ideas!” But I can no longer say I’ve never been discriminated against, not because of my skin color but because of my political views. Then, of course, leftists try to turn it into a race issue by calling me racist names like “house n*gger” and “Uncle Tom” for having the wrong political views.

Nevertheless, because of these views, I can now say I know what it feels like to be persecuted. Recently, I went to order from a food truck with my friend Joel Patrick. Joel is a black Trump supporter who wears his support for the president not just on his sleeve, but on his head and his chest too, and we were essentially denied service. We waited for roughly 20 minutes while being completely ignored by everyone working there. I tried to give them the benefit of the doubt by assuming they were just busy, but the minute we walked away because they took an eternity to even acknowledge our existence, they gladly greeted the next customer who wasn’t in MAGA gear with prompt and friendly service.

If my grandmother were still alive, we would have been able to bond over how it feels to be denied service by Democrats.

I am fortunate that being denied service is the worst that’s happened to me, because, as Eric Bolling can attest, it could be a lot worse. Every week, it seems, there’s a new video of someone being harassed or assaulted because they dared to wear a MAGA hat out of the house.

Most notably, the Covington Catholic High School students were not just harassed, they were smeared by the national press. They were slandered by the media. They were sent death threats. People said they would bomb their school. All because they expressed support of the president.

Maddie Mueller (no relation to the man who sadly couldn’t deliver this weekend) is fighting her school because the administration actually tried to ban her from wearing a MAGA hat on campus. Gunnar Johansson’s family is trying to get to the bottom of what happened when his MAGA hat was yanked off of his head by a school bus aide. Logan Jones was suspended for wearing a MAGA sweatshirt and holding a Trump flag. A woman in Massachusetts was arrested for allegedly assaulting Bryton Turner, a man who dared to wear a MAGA hat to a Mexican restaurant. Even our elders aren’t spared. Just last month, an 81-year-old man was attacked for wearing his MAGA hat, and a 19-year-old was arrested for the assault.

What is happening here? It’s an epidemic. You cannot walk out of your house and be safe if you support the president. These leftists justify their actions by saying those who wear a MAGA hat may as well be members of the KKK. But it is actually those assaulting people in the streets and verbally tormenting them who more closely resemble the Klan.

History will not be kind to those who tried to take America several decades back into the past. And it will treat them particularly harshly because of the shockingly divisive hatred the Left is using to do it, all while shamelessly claiming the mantle of tolerance.

2020 Poll Does Not Have Good News for Trump

The survey, published Sunday, found that Trump would lose to both former Vice President Joe Biden — who has yet to formally announce a presidential campaign, although he is expected to enter the race — and Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.), who narrowly lost the Democratic presidential nomination in 2016.

The poll found that Trump trails Biden by seven percentage points among registered voters, 47 percent to 40 percent. Similarly, Trump tails Sanders by three percentage points, 44 percent to 41 percent.

Additionally, the poll found Trump would only narrowly beat the leading female Democratic candidates, Sens. Kamala Harris (Calif.) and Elizabeth Warren (Mass.), defeating them each by just two percentage points. Unfortunately for Trump, those numbers are within the poll’s margin of error.

Trump Turns Table on Mueller, Calls for Investigation

By Fox News. President Trump and his legal team declared total victory Sunday following the release of Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s key findings — including no evidence of collusion with Russia during the 2016 campaign — but sought to turn the tables by renewing calls to investigate the investigators.

Trump himself slammed the probe as an “illegal takedown,” as he called Mueller’s report a “complete exoneration” and said it was a “shame” his presidency had to deal with the investigation for two years. . .

In case it wasn’t clear what he meant, Trump’s personal attorney Rudy Giuliani told Fox News an investigation should be launched into how the investigation began. . .

Giuliani added: “There has to be a full and complete investigation, with at least as much enthusiasm as this one, to figure out where did this charge emanate, who started it, who paid for it.”

The former New York mayor specifically called out one of Trump’s most vocal critics, Rep. Adam Schiff, asking the California lawmaker where the evidence of collusion is that Schiff has said he has. (Read more from “Trump Turns Table on Mueller, Calls for Investigation” HERE)

Schiff Says There Is Still ‘Significant Evidence of Collusion’, Plans to Subpoena to See Mueller Report

By Fox News. Rep. Adam Schiff, D-Calif., the chairman of the House Intelligence Committee, said Sunday that he believes there is still “significant evidence of collusion” linking the Russian government with President Trump’s 2016 presidential campaign, despite reports out of the Justice Department that Special Counsel Robert Mueller will not be recommending any further indictments in his investigation.

“There’s a difference between compelling evidence of collusion and whether the special counsel concludes that he can prove beyond a reasonable doubt the criminal charge of conspiracy,” Schiff said during an interview on ABC’s “This Week.” “I leave that decision to Bob Mueller, and I have full confidence in him.”

“I trust in his prosecutorial judgment,” Schiff added. “But that doesn’t mean, of course, that there isn’t compelling and incriminating evidence that should be shared with the American people.”

Schiff is one of numerous Democrats pressing for full disclosure of Mueller’s report on the Russia investigation and vowing to use subpoena powers and other legal means if necessary to get it.

President Trump Scraps Latest North Korea Sanctions

President Donald Trump ordered the Treasury Department to withdraw its latest sanctions aimed at North Korea on Friday, rescinding a directive administration officials made the day before. . .

In a move Politico called a “remarkable reversal,” the president tweeted, “It was announced today by the U.S. Treasury that additional large scale Sanctions would be added to those already existing Sanctions on North Korea. I have today ordered the withdrawal of those additional Sanctions!”

The Washington Post noted that no new sanctions were announced by the Treasury on Friday, but the department’s Office of Foreign Assets Control did clamp down on two Chinese shipping firms Thursday for allegedly trying to skirt North Korean sanctions. . .

The Trump administration has been in ongoing talks with North Korea in an attempt to convince the country to denuclearize, but the most recent summit between the president and Kim was cut short over a disagreement on terms. Last week, Kim threatened to withdraw from discussions with the U.S. altogether, and resume missile testing. (Read more from “President Trump Scraps Latest North Korea Sanctions” HERE)

Veteran Reporter Realizes What the NYT Is Doing With Their Donald Trump Coverage

Longtime reporter Ted Koppel isn’t beholden to anyone. He’s no longer on the airwaves. He can speak his mind and for the past couple of years, he certainly has concerning the decline in how the media is reporting on the Trump White House. While most networks are incensed when Trump trashes them at rallies, Koppel said that this isn’t entirely insane. It’s not the antics of a man with authoritarian tendencies. There are legitimate reasons for why Trump says the things he says about the liberal news media. In a recent discussion with Marvin Kalb, Koppel said that he sees things on the pages of The New York Times that wouldn’t have even been considered for print 50 years ago. He also sees the motive behind the recent trend and it’s simple: the media hates Trump and will do anything to ensure he doesn’t get re-elected. Yes, he acknowledges that there is a resistance media (via RCP):

“We have things appearing on the front page of the New York Times right now that never would have appeared 50 years ago. Analysis, commentary on the front page,” Koppel said. “I remember sitting at the breakfast table with my wife during the campaign after the Access Hollywood tape came out and the New York Times, and I will not offend any of you here by using the language but you know exactly what words were used and they were spelled out on the front page of the New York Times.”

“I turned to my wife and I said the Times is absolutely committed to making sure that this guy does not get elected,” he said. “So his perception that the establishment press is out to get him doesn’t mean that great journalism is not being done. It is. But the notion that most of us look upon Donald Trump as being an absolute fiasco, he’s not mistaken in that perception and he’s not mistaken when so many of the liberal media, for example, described themselves as belonging to the Resistance.”

2020 Democrats Have A Terrifying Goal

MIDGA, or Make the Iran Deal Great Again, appears to be 2020 Democratic presidential candidates’ unified foreign policy platform.

Several major 2020 Democratic presidential candidates want to resuscitate the Iran nuclear deal, the controversial Obama-era agreement that President Trump withdrew from in May 2018.

Sens. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., and Kamala Harris, D-Calif., told the pro-Tehran Al Monitor that they would support re-entering the nuclear agreement with the Iranian regime.

The report adds:

“The other 10 candidates did not respond to Al-Monitor’s request for comment, including Sens. Amy Klobuchar of Minnesota and Kirsten Gillibrand of New York, Hawaii Rep. Tulsi Gabbard and former Texas Rep. Beto O’Rourke. All four voted for the deal in 2015, while O’Rourke was one of only 20 House members to vote against new Iran sanctions opposed by Obama in 2015.

And former Vice President Joe Biden, who is expected to announce whether he is running next month, remains a champion of the pact negotiated under his watch.”

President Trump withdrew from the Iran deal last year, citing its disastrous ramifications for American interests and global stability.

“The fact is this was a horrible, one-sided deal that should have never, ever been made. It didn’t bring calm, it didn’t bring peace, and it never will,” he said in remarks announcing his commitment to stopping Iran from acquiring nukes.

The agreement, decried by President Trump as the “worst deal in history,” gave the terrorist regime that rules Iran $150 billion, provided a road map to deliverable nuclear weapons, and allowed the Tehran regime’s unchecked advances throughout the Middle East. It also allowed Iran to quadruple annual aid to the Hezbollah terrorist group while continuing to fund and aid its worldwide terrorist and criminal proxies.

As I explained last year for Conservative Review, the Iran deal was not solely about nuclear weapons. The Iran deal was fundamentally an agreement designed to reorient the balance of power in the Middle East away from traditional U.S. allies and to restructure the region by providing a huge boost to the Tehran regime.

In the era of Orange Man Bad, whatever Trump does, 2020 Democrats must take the opposite approach, and this of course applies to U.S. foreign policy too. 2020 Democrats are pledging to re-engage in a weapons-grade disaster of an agreement with the world’s foremost state sponsor of international terrorism, U.S. national security interests be damned.
