The Kurds are our friends. They protect American journalists and are the bastion of sanity left in the war-torn portion of Syria. It was an interesting and telling moment during the second debate when Hillary Clinton communicated some apprehension in “some circles” about increasing arms to the Kurds. The Kurds do not have a political […]

Mike Pence said he will meet with the widow of one of the Americans who died in the Benghazi attacks later on Monday, as he slammed Hillary Clinton for her handling of the situation. The GOP vice presidential nominee said at a rally in Charlotte that he would meet tonight at an event in North […]

The second debate is over, and it was like staring at the sun. That debate was ugly. There’s too much to say. I’m not sure where to begin. Overall, it was entertaining. The opening speeches were OK, not great, almost eerily tame. They both knew this was going to turn into a geriatric boxing match. […]

It’s been a whirlwind week. I’ve never heard the word ‘pussy’ used so liberally on television before. Will that dominate the debate this evening? It is, after all, a town hall style debate. Will Anderson Cooper allow the public knowledge of Trump’s hot mic to go unanswered in their debate medium? I don’t know – […]

The PTSD bill SOFREP covered has made progress on the Hill. The Bill, H.R. 5600, the No Hero Left Untreated Act with a bipartisan showing of 33 co-sponsors is moving forward. On September 21, 201, H.R. 5600, the No Hero Left Untreated Act, was reported favorably to the House by the House Veterans’ Affairs Committee, as […]

The U.S. on Friday blamed the Russian government for the hacking of political sites and accused Moscow of trying to interfere with the upcoming presidential election. Pressure has been mounting on the Obama administration to call out Russia for the hacking of U.S. political sites and email accounts. The hacking claim Friday was another setback […]

The FBI’s notes on its investigation into Hillary Clinton‘s private email server raise questions about two “bankers boxes” of printed emails that went missing in the course of the probe, Fox News reports. Among the FBI’s lengthy report are its notes from a 2015 interview with an unnamed Office of Information Programs and Services (IPS) employee, which were heavily […]

Hillary Clinton represents everything that is bad and needs to be changed about politics in America. She has made a career out of manipulation, character assassination (on the women who slept with her husband), and an orchestrated schizophrenic foreign policy (at best) that has contributed to chaos in the Middle East, which has resulted in […]

The VP Debate aired this week. The world watched as these two older white men duked it out on national television. Tempers rose high and voices were raised, a few times. It was tough to stream this morning on YouTube to review the event. Maybe because so many realized it happened after reading it in […]

I’m hoping there are some policy details this go-around. This is the least anticipated debate I can remember. The debate “no one is waiting for.” In this discussion, unfortunately, they’ll likely focus on the presidential candidates. The Vice Presidential debate could end up sounding like a more official punditry session. But, they might bring up […]

Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump’s comments Monday about veterans’ mental health set off a fiery debate about how post-traumatic stress should be discussed. But many veterans, including some who have suffered from the condition, say they continue to support him. Trump, speaking to a group of veterans in Reston, Va., was asked whether he would […]

Immunity deals for two top Hillary Clinton aides included a side arrangement obliging the FBI to destroy their laptops after reviewing the devices, House Judiciary Committee sources told Fox News on Monday. Sources said the arrangement with former Clinton chief of staff Cheryl Mills and ex-campaign staffer Heather Samuelson also limited the search to no […]
