Nancy Pelosi blasts the media’s obsession with impeachment, but doesn’t rule it out

On Thursday, President Donald Trump announced a proposal to fix America’s broken immigration system that advocated for migrants to be chosen by merit rather than family ties.

Judicial Watch: Obama White House knew about Clinton email irregularities in 2012
When the news first broke publicly in 2015 that former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton had used an illicit and unauthorized private email server to conduct official government business, then-President Barack Obama professed ignorance and claimed that he had just learned about it through the media like everybody else. But it now appears that Obama […]

Ilhan Omar declares herself Trump’s ‘biggest nemesis’
Though still only a freshman member of Congress, Democrat Minnesota Rep.
