THE GATEWAY PUNDIT — Hannity told his audience he has MULTIPLE SOURCES who confirm the DOJ is retrieving the missing messages between FBI lovebirds Strzok and Page.

DAILY CALLER — A new photo has emerged that shows former President Barack Obama posing with Louis Farrakhan, the leader of the black nationalist hate group Nation of Islam. The photo shows then Democratic Illinois Sen. Barack Obama smiling with Farrakhan at a Congressional Black Caucus meeting in 2005.

WASHINGTON TIMES — TV host Mike Rowe slams the idea that every student must go to a four-year college in order to secure a good-paying job as wasteful, misguided and -- in a word -- "crazy." "We're lending money we don't have to kids who can't pay it back to educate them for jobs that don't exist anymore, and that's crazy," says Mr. Rowe, the former host of the Discovery Channel's "Dirty Jobs" who has a new show on the Trinity Broadcasting Network....

DAILY WIRE — The country has been repulsed and horrified by the case of the Turpin family in California. David and Louise Turpin, monsters in vaguely human form, have been arrested for torturing and tormenting their 13 children. The Turpin kids -- some of them now adults in their twenties -- were emaciated, filthy, and shackled to their beds with chains when police found them. The house was strewn with the carcasses of dead dogs and cats and various other debris. The details get even more disturbing from there.... (more)

PJ MEDIA — There is serious talk on Capitol Hill about the appointment of a second special counsel amid several new bombshell revelations swirling around the Trump/Russia probe. First, there are the allegations of shocking and substantial government surveillance abuses under President Obama outlined in the FISA abuse memo. Secondly, the FBI lost five months of key text messages between the anti-Trump/pro-Clinton FBI officials Peter Strzok and his mistress Lisa Page. And now there's talk of a "secret society" of officials within the FBI that apparently met the day after the election of Donald J. Trump to plot against the president-elect.... (more)

WASHINGTON TIMES — The two FBI officials who have been criticized for anti-Trump texts, exchanged more than 50,000 text messages, Attorney General Jeff Sessions said Monday night. The number was released after six congressional committees requested all text messages between Peter Strzok and Lisa Page between July 1, 2015, and July 28, 2017. Congress has been pushing for answers on the text exchanges after it was revealed the FBI failed to preserve five months of texts between Mr. Strzok and Ms. Page.... (more)

JOSEPH FARAH — I know how the eyes of most Americans glaze over when they hear about "FISA memos." It's understandable. Washington-speak has what we once called in American newsrooms a "high MEGO factor." MEGO was an acronym for "my eyes glaze over." But I'm going to tell you why there's one FISA memo you need to see with your own eyes. Have I seen it? No. But I know it's red hot because Democrats in the House are unanimous in their opposition to releasing it to the public.... (more)

WORLDNETDAILY — If the Book of Genesis is true, if faith in the word of God is valid, then ancient secular human history must connect in significant ways to the Genesis account of our origins.

Events in 'The 15:17 to Paris' riveted 2 continents
WORLDNETDAILY — Something is going on with the new Clint Eastwood movie about an attempted terrorist attack on a train, "The 15:17 to Paris," that doesn't sound like Hollywood. How often do the main actors play themselves? And how often do those actors spend a morning in church, getting prayed over?... (more)

ALAN KEYES — Talk is cheap. People are unlikely to believe this old taunt if they have ever experienced a regime of totalitarian repression, where "free speech" is a criminal offense, or ever looked into the lives of people like Alexander Solzhenitsyn, Dietrich Bonhoeffer, or the myriads of Christians severely persecuted or killed for bearing true witness to Christ in areas where Islamist practitioners of violent jihad deploy terror to repress such evangelization. In such circumstances, talk, in spoken or written form, may cost people their livelihood and their lives, not to mention the mental anguish of relentless fear.... (more)

POLITICO — In a dramatic turnaround, Senate Democrats voted to reopen the government on Monday after receiving a commitment from Republicans to hold a vote on immigration legislation -- paving the way to end the three-day shutdown.... (more)


January 22, 2018
WASHINGTON TIMES — Radio host Rush Limbaugh says there is a simple reason why a short-lived government shutdown ended Monday: President Trump "went on offense." The man behind "the golden EIB microphone" told listeners this week that Democrats were so caught off guard by "Schumer Shutdown" attacks that they did a political U-turn after three days. Mr. Limbaugh said the Republicans' refusal to negotiate on Saturday, coupled with rhetorical broadsides against Sen. Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, constituted a political masterstroke.... (more)

WORLDNETDAILY — Democrats in the House and Senate thought they would play the old government-shutdown card that has worked for them every time it has been played since 1995 when Republicans were blamed. But 2018 is different. It is backfiring. It's no longer Republicans starving children and forcing old people to eat dog food. This time, Democrats are being blamed for refusing to fund the U.S. military as a means of aiding illegal alien... (more)

JEFF SESSIONS — For decades, the American people have been begging and pleading with our elected officials for an immigration system that is lawful and that serves our national interest. That's not just because immigration is an economic issue. It's also because it's a matter of public safety and national security. If we can't control -- or even know -- who enters this country, it's much harder to keep people safe.... (more)

BYRON YORK — Investigators in both House and Senate were stunned late Friday when, receiving a batch of newly-released texts between FBI officials Peter Strzok and Lisa Page, they also received notice from the bureau that the FBI "failed to preserve" Strzok-Page messages from December 14, 2016 through May 17, 2017....
