Republicans Find A Spine, Pass Tax Cuts For Americans..

It ain't perfect, but I was ready to call to purge the entire Senate. They Dodged A Bullet...

The road ahead for tax reform

After a busy week of discussions and compromise, Senate Republicans backed up a major promise to the American people by passing the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act early Saturday morning.

The bill now advances to a congressional conference committee, which will reconcile any differences between the Senate’s version and similar legislation passed by the House last month. This process—an indispensable component of American democracy—will ensure that all voices are heard and that the final product sent to President Donald J. Trump later this month is the bill’s strongest version yet.

The President applauds the Senate for its work and looks forward to signing this momentous tax cut into law in time for Christmas. Click here to read the full statement on the Senate vote.

NO ACCIDENT: FBI Knows Bill Clinton SET UP Meeting with Lynch

Now a real investigation begins as we learn that Bill Clinton ambushed then-Attorney General Loretta Lynch.

They say that Lynch “sweated” when Bill Clinton entered her airplane. She certainly had reason.

Because aside from the potential for sexual assault, Bill Clinton was there for answers. And to pedal a bit of former-president influence.

Now the question is, “How did Bill Clinton know how to find Lynch?”

There was an obvious intelligence breach within the FBI who alerted Bill Clinton to stalk Lynch and thus set up the infamous tarmac meeting.

Sources say Lynch was taken aback and reportedly physically shaken by Clinton’s seemingly impromptu visit at Phoenix Sky Harbor airport tarmac on June 27, 2016, just one week before a scheduled FBI interrogation of his wife Hillary Clinton.

The Clinton narrative of the meeting has been that Bill Clinton and Lynch met by happenstance, as their jets landed. Clinton claimed he was in Phoenix on a scheduled stop to meet with Latino leaders to stump for his wife. However, federal law enforcement sources believe Bill Clinton’s jet was chartered from Teterboro Airport in northern New Jersey the morning of the infamous tarmac sit down. That information clearly contradicts the many and varied narratives offered by the Clintons to date.

As the New York Post reports:

In his new book, “Guilty As Sin” (Regnery), out Tuesday, Edward Klein claims officials in the Obama administration decided before the first witness was interviewed that Hillary Clinton would not face prosecution over the handling of classified email. An excerpt:

Bill Clinton’s private jet was cleared for takeoff and was taxiing toward the active runway at Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport when a Secret Service agent informed him that Attorney General Loretta Lynch’s plane was coming in for a landing.

“Don’t take off!” Bill barked.

As his plane skidded to a halt and then headed back to its parking space, Bill grabbed a phone and called an old friend — one of his most trusted legal advisers.

“Bill said, ‘I want to bushwhack Loretta,’ ” the adviser recalled. “ ‘I’m going to board her plane. What do you think?’ And I said, ‘There’s no downside for you, but she’s going to take a pounding if she’s crazy enough to...

Far-Left Site Owned By Univision Urges US Companies to Break Law and Employ Illegals

A far-left website owned by Univision is calling on US corporations to defy federal laws and keep DACA recipients employed once their work permits expire.

In a piece entitled, ‘What DACA Recipients Really Need Is for Their Bosses to Break the Law,’ published on Univision’s pet project Splinter, Jorge Rivas called for companies to engage in a massive civil disobedience against enforcing America’s borders.

Rivas wrote that “if young, undocumented immigrants can put their livelihoods on the line and practice civil disobedience, then corporations who have reaped the benefits of their bravery—and who have far more power, money and legal resources than DACA recipients—can do it, too.”

“If many corporations big and small stand up and do this, that’s how social change is created,” Bill Ong Hing, an immigration law professor at the University of San Francisco, was quoted as saying.

Even companies that have issued statements in support of DACA were not spared from being called out by the outlet.

“These statements are nice things to say, and that’s about it. They’re nothing more than symbolic declarations. Virtually none of these companies are promising to stick their necks out in a meaningful way for their undocumented workers,” Rivas wrote.

The author noted that AirBnb, who has been barring people from using their service for holding right wing political beliefs, was the first to vow to break the law concerning...

Birmingham, ALABAMA — An organization partnered with a George Soros-financed group and led by a radical leftist who is the half-brother of the infamous controversial Rev. Al Sharpton has been diligently working over the past few weeks to register convicted felons across Alabama.

The aim of the effort has been to get as many felons as possible on the roster before last Monday, the deadline to register in order to vote in Alabama’s Dec. 12 senate special election that pits Republican Roy Moore against Democratic challenger Doug Jones. The man spearheading the campaign has stated outright that his effort is meant to ensure a Democratic victory in Alabama.

The thousands of felons reportedly newly registered over the past few weeks were most likely not included in any recent polling on the Alabama senate race put out by major firms.

Jones himself is tied to some of the specific organizations associated with the drive to register felons here. Indeed, as Breitbart News first reported, Jones spearheaded a project for a massively Soros-financed legal activist group demanding full voting rights be given to felons released from prison, including those convicted of murder, rape and other violent crimes.

AL.com reported that Pastor Kenneth Glasgow has been at the forefront of the statewide effort, which has successfully registered thousands of felons across Alabama in recent weeks. Glasgow has been aided in his efforts here by other Soros-financed groups, including...

Rep. Devin Nunes (R-Calif.), chairman of the House Intelligence Committee, has instructed his staff to draw up a contempt of Congress citation for FBI Director Christopher Wray and his deputy, Rod Rosenstein, after it was revealed Saturday that a top FBI agent was removed from the Trump-Russia investigation for possible anti-Trump bias.
What happened?

The New York Times and Washington Post both reported Saturday FBI special agent Peter Strzok — who played key roles in the FBI’s initial Russia investigation, special counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation and the Clinton email investigation — was removed from Mueller’s investigation after it was discovered he exchanged anti-Trump text messages with FBI lawyer Lisa Page, whom he was having an extramarital affair with. Strzok was re-assigned to the FBI’s human resources department, a move many saw as a demotion.

The Post reported that Strzok and Page exchanged texts that were anti-Trump and pro-Clinton. The messages themselves weren’t revealed, just the existence of them.

As part of the intelligence committee’s investigation into the Trump-Russia probe and the anti-Trump dossier, Nunes asked the Justice Department several times why Strzok had been removed from the investigation, according to the Washington Examiner. The committee even issued a subpoena on Aug. 24 requesting information on Strzok’s reassignment.

Nunes and his committee followed up five separate times between Oct. 11 and Dec. 1. Each time, however, the DOJ and FBI failed to answer the committee’s questions. It was only after the Times and Post stories hit the presses that the DOJ informed Nunes they would grant his requests — well, at least some of them.

The actions of the DOJ have left Nunes and his committee no other option, the California Republican said Saturday.
What did he say?

He said, according to the Examiner:
