Conrad Black: Donald Trump accomplished more before he was president than had any prior president of the United States except Washington, Jefferson, Madison, Grant, and Eisenhower. His exterior is uneven, but his history is one of astounding accomplishment.

There is no defense for torture, as properly defined. It is what the North Vietnamese did to our soldiers in Hanoi. It is what drug cartels do to captured enemies. It is what North Korea did to Otto Warmbier. It is not what American intelligence officers have done to save lives.

Townhall

Release the transcripts of the committee’s witness interviews like Donald Trump Jr., Jared Kushner, Michael Cohen and Corey Lewandowski.  It would be a public service — actually, it is a public responsibility — for the committee to release those interviews.

The left in America is founded on the rejection of wisdom. It is possible to be on the left and be kind, honest in business, faithful to one’s spouse, etc. But it is not possible to be wise if one subscribes to leftist (as opposed to liberal) ideas.

Townhall

Peace and civilization are not the natural state of man, and that the black swan events that we have somehow convinced ourselves could never happen do happen with startling regularity. And this is why you should buy guns and ammunition.

Townhall

David Limbaugh: Wolf put the elite leftist media in a box when she so openly attacked a woman in public while they were conspicuously present, but this is how far too many of them think… Please spare us the feigned disapproval, guys. This is what you do.

Townhall

Kurt Schlichter: Maybe the roly-poly dictator has come around to our way of thinking. Maybe it’s the lingering awesomeness of Barack Obama that led him to acts of unprecedented good behavior. Maybe it’s just that he’s decided to be a nice guy. Or maybe it’s because, under Trump, the US stopped acting like a simpering wuss.

Townhall

Ben Shapiro:  It may just be that West, like a lot of Americans tired of being told what to think by their industry and racialists on all sides, is getting tired of being told what to do. It’s possible that West, like most Americans, sees America as a place with problems but a place where individuals can think and achieve freely. And he’s clearly willing to take part in a political debate so many of his friends aren’t.

Townhall

Dennis Prager: Leftism — in its incarnations, such as Marxism, communism and socialism; expressed through egalitarianism, environmentalism and feminism; in its denigration of capitalism and Western civilization…has almost completely taken over the news and entertainment media and institutions of education.

Townhall

Rachel Alexander: Unfortunately, these people with their demented sense of what’s “funny” are the ones writing daily news about the Trump administration. If you needed any more evidence of their journalistic bias, the vile hatred toward Trump and his staff was on featured display at the dinner.

Townhall

Kurt Schlichter: We are experiencing an epidemic of liberals trying to push us around. And, since life is really just high school, except with older and stupider people, schoolyard rules apply. So when someone tries to bully, you smack him. Hard. Right in the Pelosi. 

Townhall

John Stossel: Even though teachers carry at hundreds of schools, I could find only one instance where one of those guns hurt a student. By contrast, armed school staffers have stopped school shootings.

Townhall

Kevin Johnson’s apology tour is silly and will do nothing to heal race relations in America. Ultimately, the Starbucks CEO will keep race-baiters employed, and blacks angry. Great job at keeping us divided Mr. Johnson.

Townhall

Kurt Schlichter: You liberals and your Fredocon lackeys need to get this through your heads. You are not purging this guy. He’s purging you. Just look at James Comey, who has gone from Tower of Integrity to Looming Doofus…And it’s a delight to watch you hacks go nuts about it.

Townhall

David Limbaugh: Comey’s decision to write a tell-all book about an ongoing investigation on which he was the senior investigator and for which he could be a witness was abominable. It has gravely diminished him and the FBI, and it has contradicted his claim that he is concerned with protecting the image and integrity of the bureau.

Townhall

Comey offered this assessment to George Stephanopoulos, whose former boss, first candidate and then President Bill Clinton, was credibly accused of rape and sexual assault, had sex in the Oval Office with an intern, and then lied about it under oath, for which he was impeached.

Townhall

John Stossel: By calling April 17 “Tax Day,” the media miss the big picture. Income taxes make up less than half the tax most of us pay. We also must pay payroll tax, corporate tax, gift tax, gambling tax, federal unemployment tax, gas tax, cable and telecom taxes, plane ticket tax, FCC subscriber line charges, car documentation fees, liquor and cigarette taxes, etc.

Townhall

Dennis Prager: I was told years ago that The Times best-seller list almost never includes overtly religious books. I believe it but cannot prove it. I was told The Times doesn’t even monitor Christian bookstore sales.

Townhall

The left claims that the right is full of fascists dictating how people should live their lives, but this is proof it’s the left that is taking their viewpoints to an oppressive level. When the left won’t even let itself operate normally, you know the situation has gotten out of control.   

Townhall

Brent Bozell: Zuckerberg told the leftist blog Vox that Facebook plans to boost “broadly trusted news sources” like The New York Times and the WSJ (national media elites) as opposed to looking “down to blogs that may be on more of the fringe.” We are certainly not placing our trust in The New York Times. 

Townhall

Kurt Schlichter: Trump committed no crime, as we all know because nothing indicating he has committed a crime has leaked out of that unprofessional sieve masquerading as a bunch of professional prosecutors that Mueller assembled to do the bidding of his elite masters to both overturn the result of the 2016 election and avenge his humiliated pal James Comey.

Townhall

Ben Shapiro: Many conservatives will rightly point to the DOJ and FBI treatment of Hillary Clinton, and state that the agencies ought to be consistent in their application of the law and leave Trump alone. Or they’ll suggest that Trump ought to turn those agencies into personal defense organizations, as former President Obama did.

Townhall

Dennis Prager: The most obvious — and, therefore, the one more and Americans can resonate with — is the near destruction of most American universities as places of learning…If you send your children to a university, you are endangering both their mind and their character. 

Townhall

Kurt Schlichter: The leftist zillionaires and the Democrat government unions bought the elections. It also got so expensive here that the people who made California red and not terrible moved away. Now you have a relatively small elite of really rich liberal jerks, and a large class of serfs to the Democrat welfare state.
