Newt Gingrich: President Trump is decisively reining in the left
While the mainstream media has fixated on exaggerated day-to-day mini-controversies, the Trump Administration has methodically eliminated job-killing Obama-era regulations, filled judicial vacancies with solid conservatives at an astonishing pace, and accomplished real breakthroughs in trade relations with China and the Middle East.
Now, the President is going after another Obama-era creation: the dangerously unaccountable Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB).
Long time readers of this newsletter know that I have opposed the CFPB on constitutional and economic grounds for years. I’ve written about the agency’s mafia-like tactics as well as the threat its behavior poses to the rule of law. I have even testified before Congress about the danger this agency poses.
This CFPB was created by the 2010 Dodd-Frank Act and was largely designed by radical Senator Elizabeth Warren when she was an Obama advisor. Since the beginning, it has been used as a political weapon by the far Left as a way to intimidate businesses that the Left opposes ideologically.
The CFPB consistently oversteps its bounds. It is prohibited from regulating car deals, yet it does so anyway. It is prohibited from collecting personal data from consumers, yet it does so at a...
Pro-terrorist open-borders socialist Luis Gutierrez abruptly schedules retirement
Gutierrez’s departure is welcome news for those of us who know his history, because in addition to his open-borders advocacy, Gutierrez is one of the most ardent, extreme leftists in Congress.
On the leftist echo chamber known as MSNBC hours after his surprise announcement, the 13-term congressman who has devoted his life to fundamentally transforming America, claimed he just suddenly out of the clear blue sky decided 1) he wanted to spend more time with his family 2) he wanted to focus on rebuilding Puerto Rico, which he called his “ancestral home,” and 3) he wanted to politically organize the immigrant community, by which he probably means the illegal alien community.
At Politico, Natasha Korecki isn’t buying the lawmaker’s excuses for quitting.
There’s nothing normal about the way Illinois Congressman Luis Gutiérrez’s retirement announcement went down.
The abruptness of his decision, the suspicious timing, the immediate coronation of...

Clinton sex accusers storm Al Franken's office
Security summoned when women challenge senator to 'come out' and talk
WASHINGTON – In the wake of photographic proof that Sen. Al Franken, D-Minn., has brazenly harassed women for decades, one of Franken’s targets joined former President Bill Clinton’s accusers Wednesday to demand justice.
Franken disappeared for days after there were claims he groped and demeaned women.
Then he emerged Sunday, explaining that he has not considered resigning amid the slew of sexual harassment allegations but would cooperate with a Senate investigation into his conduct.
“I’ve let a lot of people down and I’m hoping I can make it up to them and gradually regain their trust,” said Franken, breaking an eight-day silence in a phone call with Minnesota Public Radio.
“The Ethics Committee is looking into all of this, and I will cooperate fully with it,” said Franken, who was elected to the Senate in 2008. “I know I have a lot of work to do to regain the trust of people I’ve let down.”
Earlier this month, KABC on-air personality Leeann Tweeden accused Franken of kissing and groping her without her consent while she was asleep.
Tweeden substantiated her claims with a photo that shows Franken with his hands over her breasts while he...
