CNN's Preposterous Call for Unity
There was a Museum of Broadcasting in New York City, but there’s never been anything called the Museum of Broadcasting Shamelessness.

By April, amid a nationwide shutdown to stem the spread of the virus, it had risen to 14.7 percent, the highest rate since the Great Depression.

OPINION: Taking back America
Never in my lifetime did I believe this great nation would be taken down and withdrawn from its world leadership position by its own leadership. While some try to explain away the Obama administration’s damaging policies by making excuses, they fail to face reality. This is a planned agenda.
