Poor Nancy Pelosi. The Democratic House speaker worked harder than anyone to win Team Blue its majority in Congress. But she played by an old set of rules, and her party’s unruly young leaders have decided she goes on the ash heap with Joe Biden and all the other Klansmen — er, sorry, Klanspeople.

Megan Rapinoe Has No Desire to Talk to You
U.S. soccer star Megan Rapinoe is a team player. She fights for her sport, defends her teammates, and even carries that mentality off the field and into the political arena — which means that anyone who isn’t on her ideological team isn’t welcome.
What Can Tom Steyer Accomplish as a Losing Presidential Candidate That He Can’t as a Billionaire?

CBS’ Gayle King Repeats Absurd Lie That Obama Administration Was Scandal-Free

Dem 2020 Task: Convince Voters to Overlook the Economy
Byron York: The president’s Democratic 2020 challengers face a daunting problem: Unless there is a serious economic downturn, the answer to the are-you-better-off question will work in the president’s favor, not his opponent’s.
Andy Ngo’s Antifa Attackers Might Have Violated a Federal Anti-Klan Law

Anti-Trump Fever Takes Threatening Turn
Byron York: The toxicity of the resistance to President Trump has risen in recent days, with the nation’s most respected newspapers publishing rationalizations for denying Trump supporters public accommodation and for doxxing career federal employees, while a journalist found himself under physical attack from the so-called anti-fascist group Antifa…

E. Jean Carroll’s Outlandish TV Interviews Are Damaging Her Credibility
Being a bit of an eccentric in television interviews, of course, does not mean that she made up the story. But it certainly raises more questions about her reliability as a narrator as we try to evaluate her serious accusation as fairly as possible given the passage of time.
From Kavanaugh to E. Jean Carroll, a Straight Line of Incredulity
Somewhere along the way, between Harvey Weinstein’s downfall and Christine Blasey Ford’s testimony, sexual assault became just another political commodity. Carroll knows this. Perhaps that’s why she hasn’t come forward until now.
Restricting Abortion Is Actually Good for Business
Companies fail without customers. Economics 101 suggests that the larger the pool of people from which to pull, the more product and profit will be produced. And abortion doesn’t add people to the population; it only subtracts.
Why Does CNN’s Don Lemon Fear Lost Freedom Under Trump But Not Sanders, Harris or AOC?
Tom Rogan: It is odd that Lemon ignores the ramifications for freedom of politicians who propose to take vastly more privately held money into government hands, who propose far greater control over the economy and society, and who are quite explicit about wanting to legislate in overt contravention of established constitutional rights.

1 Million “Make America Great Again” Hats Sold

Many British Anti-Trump Protestors Were Just Anti-American
Even it comes to presidential visits to Britain, many of these protesters aren’t just angry about a particular president, but rather they hate America in general. Every major U.S. state visit to Britain in recent memory has met protests from the far-left. This includes Barack Obama’s 2011 state visit to the U.K.
Bernie Campaigned for Marxist Party in Reagan Era

Democrats Don’t Want to Investigate the Investigators. They Must Have Something to Hide
The conclusion of Mueller’s investigation left Democrats empty-handed, and so now Trump has given his attorney general the authority to investigate and declassify material that could explain to the public how all of this happened…Sounds reasonable, unless you’re listening to the media and Democrats who very apparently want something to remain hidden.
Democrats’ Impeachment Talk Impeaches Their Own Credibility
Democrats talking about impeaching President Trump are so absurdly premature as to convict themselves of extreme political hackery.

Comey Is Just Telling the Media What They Want to Hear
No one should take anything former FBI Director James Comey says seriously. The proof is in the national media eagerly promoting every dumb, opportunistic thing he says about President Trump.

Dems Ditch Duties to Bash Barr
Senate Democrats, whose collusion narrative has been exposed as delusional by special counsel Robert Mueller, spent Wednesday trying to inflict pain on William Barr, laughably accusing him of a “cover-up.” They were incanting from a script cobbled together from a sloppy or tendentious reading of a Washington Post article, the timing of which appears calculated to reinforce the Democrats’ relentless campaign against Trump.
