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.

Sneaky Taxes Hidden from Consumers
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.
NY Times Bestseller List Is Another Reason Americans Don’t Trust the Media
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.
The Left Loses It Over 2 Black Men Arrested in Starbucks
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.
Zeroing in on Facebook’s Anti-Conservative Tilt
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.
Trump Should Use His Bully Pulpit to Expose Mueller’s Corruption
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.
The Death of the FBI and Department of Justice
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.
Whatever the Left Touches, It Ruins
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.
How California Turned into the Blue Hellhole It Is Today
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.
Don’t Let the Left Do It to Pruitt
David Limbaugh: The left’s crusade against Environmental Protection Agency Administrator Scott Pruitt should be seen for what it is — a witch hunt. We don’t need any more conservatives hanged by leftists who major in criminalizing political differences and minor in slander.
Trump’s Secret Sauce to Higher Poll Numbers Is Illegal Immigration
Wayne Allyn Root: I believe illegal immigration and “the wall” won Trump the 2016 election. And I believe it’s the reason he’s doing so well in the polls now. Liberals are so out of touch with how real Americans feel about illegal immigration
Soda Taxes Are Poisonous
John Stossel: Philadelphia gave $4 million of its new soda tax funds to the Office of Arts and Culture. That bureaucracy spent the money on things like “hip-hop dance…to teach youth empowerment and social issues.”
Trump May Be Winning the War on Trade
Last week, Trump apparently delivered two underappreciated victories as a result of his threat of stiff tariffs and renegotiated trade deals.
John Bolton Is Good for the US and Bad for Iran
Adam Ereli: Iran’s protests validate the wisdom of making John Bolton America’s National Security Advisor. If Iran thinks he’s bad, he must be good. One thing is certain: the United States will no longer pursue a policy of appeasement toward the Islamic Republic of Iran.
Hollywood Made a Great Movie About a Kennedy Tragedy (Chappaquiddick)
A breath of fresh air is blowing in from the left coast. The new movie ‘Chappaquiddick” is a brutally honest recounting of one of America’s greatest public tragedies: the death of Mary Jo Kopechne in a car owned and driven by Sen. Ted Kennedy (D-Mass.).
There’s Opposition to John Bolton Because He’s a Clear Thinker
Cal Thomas: Peace through strength has worked before and Bolton believes it can work again. Strength is what deters bullies, not trying to “understand” their hostility toward America, as Hillary Clinton once recommended.
The Government Snitches in Your Kids’ Dental Office
Michelle Malkin: The partnership between medical providers and government child welfare services has threatened innocent families across the country under the guise of “protecting the children.” It is a short hop from cavity-shaming and misdiagnoses to ripping families apart.
Even Before the Stormy Daniels Interview, We’ve Forgotten How to Blush
Michael Brown: There’s no denying that, in many ways, we’ve been on a steady moral decline since the early days of Kinsey and Hefner. It is the difference between Leave It to Beaver and Game of Thrones. The difference between Father Knows Best and Girls.
The Anti-Gun Rally Was Essentially a Demand to Erode the Second Amendment
Rachel Alexander: It should have been called “March Against Our Rights.” The marchers claim they don’t trust the government, yet they want the government to take their guns away.
The Wisdom of Picking Bolton Is Made Clear in the Panic of Liberals
Mark Davis: With one presidential decision, America gained one of its boldest National Security Advisers, and lost one of its best cable news guests.
Let’s Help California Secede from the US
Wayne Root: Millions of illegal aliens live in California; drive in California with official state-issued drivers’ licenses; and of course, use those licenses to vote in California. Millions. That’s precisely how Hillary won California by over 4 million votes. California supports illegal aliens over legal, law-abiding American citizens.
The So-Called Pro-Truth Media Back McCabe’s Lying
Brent Bozell: None of these not-the-opposition tv networks noted that McCabe was getting a sweeter treatment by the legal process than retired Lt. Gen. Mike Flynn, who was forced to plead guilty to lying to the FBI, rather than lying within the FBI. Nobody at the networks protested about a “war” on government officials or tweeted out help-the-poor-public-servant messages for Flynn.
It’s Time to Choose Prosperity or Craziness
Wayne Root: The U.S. economy is booming. “The Trump Miracle” continues unabated. That’s choice number one. Or behind door #2, you could choose “pure freaking crazy.” Insanity. Straight jackets and rubber rooms. Not to mention racism towards white people.
7 Techniques Liberals Use to Silence Conservatives
John Hawkins: Includes lib-splaining, violence, false labeling and the ventriloquist dummy.
