Megyn Kelly Slaps Rude Rudy Giuliani With the Hypocrisy of His Own Words

Last updated on: June 8, 2018 at 4:55 pm By Susan Wright

Well, the lady is not wrong. Also, MEEE-OWWW!! I showed you guys the video of garbage human being, Rudy Giuliani, Trump’s outside lawyer for the ongoing Russia probe, speaking in Tel Aviv on Wednesday. In the video clip, the former New York mayor addressed the other legal quagmire the president has found himself in: Stormy Daniels, the alleged porn star mistress of Trump. In the clip (which you can see here), Giuliani discussed Donald Trump’s wives, remarking that they were... Read more

President Trump Is Looking for His Next, Big Pardon Target

Last updated on: June 8, 2018 at 3:34 pm By Susan Wright

President Trump got a taste of the praise that comes from granting a pardon. His acolytes loved him when he pardoned Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio and loyalist, Dinesh D’Souza, after all. He also hosted fellow reality TV veteran and intellectual equal, Kim Kardashian at the White House, where she advocated for the pardon of Alice Johnson, a 65-year old grandmother serving life for a series of charges involving cocaine trafficking and conspiracy. Trump also granted that and got big... Read more

Trump Plays Advocate for the Nation’s Geopolitical Foes Before the G7 Summit

Last updated on: June 8, 2018 at 10:28 am By Susan Wright

Honestly, I cannot, for the life of me, understand how it is that people think Trump is some slow-witted, gullible, dancing monkey puppet for the Putin regime. I mean, to believe that would mean that he’s more invested in advancing the goals of our greatest geopolitical foes than that of our allies, or our own nation. For all you naysayers, pointing to Trump’s campaign team pushing to have the language regarding Russia’s aggressive moves in Ukraine and Crimea “softened” in... Read more

History Will Not Look at Trumpism With Kind Eyes (and a Nation Pays the Price)

Last updated on: June 8, 2018 at 9:40 am By Susan Wright

I don’t think the presidency is a job I’d ever want to hold. The pressures, responsibilities, and crucial nature of the work is far above what I feel I could reasonably handle. I wouldn’t take a job that important, unless I was well-versed in policy, and had some executive experience in running a government. That’s why I’ve always favored governors as candidates for the presidency. The last one I would have picked would have been a reality TV huckster, and... Read more

Members of Trump’s Wildling Crew Turn Their Wrath on Paul Ryan

Last updated on: June 7, 2018 at 11:18 pm By Susan Wright

When the natives are this restless, it doesn’t make them look like they’re winning. It makes them look like they’re in a panic. At issue is South Carolina Representative Trey Gowdy’s statement regarding the FBI informant, Stefan A. Halper. After viewing the sensitive documents with a group of other lawmakers a week ago, Gowdy committed the unforgivable crime of saying the FBI did the exact right thing by having an informant contact three members of Trump’s campaign. It was not... Read more

Rudy Giuliani Continues to Wreck His Reputation While in Tel Aviv

Last updated on: June 7, 2018 at 4:08 pm By Susan Wright

Let’s begin with a reality check. President Trump’s attorney, Rudy Giuliani, is an absolute garbage human being. He had our respect for his actions after the horrible events of September 11, 2001, but something has gone horrible wrong since that time. I showed a video last night of an appearance by Giuliani in Tel Aviv, Israel. While speaking to this crowd, Giuliani said the most inflammatory (and unhelpful) things about the upcoming summit between President Trump and North Korean dictator... Read more

Shrill Fox News Personality Courts the White House for Top Level Job

Last updated on: June 7, 2018 at 2:10 pm By Susan Wright

This is like a bad dream. It’s worse than a bad dream, and it can’t happen. We’ve discussed President Trump’s dependence on his propaganda arm, Fox News (…aka… American Pravda) before. He gets his morning Twitter points directly from “Fox and Friends” in the mornings, or whoever was on Sean Hannity’s show the night before. He’s not being given critical information. He’s having his ego stroked and whatever insane, rambling bent he’s on for the week, they pat him on... Read more

WATCH: Former Fox News Analyst “Convinced” Vladimir Putin Has a Grip on Trump

Last updated on: June 7, 2018 at 11:01 am By Susan Wright

Not everyone who comes out of the Fox News carousel is a dyed in the wool Trump’s Temple acolyte. Some leave the ranks horrified, in disbelief and disgust over what the network has devolved into, in this wretched age of Trump. One such defector is Retired Lt. Col. Ralph Peters, formerly a military analyst with Fox News. He left that position in a blaze of glory several months ago, penning an op-ed saying he was not renewing his contract because... Read more

Sean Hannity Gives a Fanatical Primer to Russia Probe Witnesses on How to Destroy Evidence

Last updated on: June 7, 2018 at 8:04 am By Susan Wright

Fox News personality, Sean Hannity’s devotion to President Donald Trump could only be described as “fanatical,” at this point. It has lapsed beyond even what we see from the most ardent cult followers. To be clear, Sean Hannity enjoys a broad platform, with both a radio and TV audience. He’s also no novice. He’s been doing both for long enough that you have to assume what he does while on the job is done with a sure purpose. He’s not... Read more

Rudy Giuliani Goes off Script and Turns His Attention to North Korea (VIDEO)

Last updated on: June 6, 2018 at 11:37 pm By Susan Wright

Former New York mayor and current attorney for President Donald Trump, Rudy Giuliani is, as I’ve said time and again, the gift that keeps on giving. I’m pretty much to the point now where I believe his true goal is to create as much chaos for President Trump as possible. He certainly isn’t helping him. To be clear, Giuliani’s turf is the Russia probe. He was brought in as a desperation move, after legal counsel began bailing the good ship... Read more
