Another Anti-Trump Media Fail: “Intel still hasn’t established Russia paid Taliban ‘bounties’ to kill U.S. troops”

Posted by Fuzzy Slippers on September 15, 2020 15 Comments

Democrats and their media cohorts have spent the last four years throwing everything they can dream up at President Trump, hoping against hope that this time it will stick.

This time. For sure.

There’s an effort to get me fired at Cornell for criticizing the Black Lives Matter Movement

Posted by William A. Jacobson on June 11, 2020 330 Comments

There is an effort underway to get me fired at Cornell Law School, where I've worked since November 2007, or if not fired, at least denounced publicly by the school.

Living as a conservative on a liberal campus is like being the mouse waiting for the cat to pounce.
