President Donald Trump’s staff is constantly revolving and the left had set its eyes on his Chief of Staff John Kelly with reports that Kelly is frustrated and wants out. They even posted pictures of Kelly with a frustrated face supposedly for Trump.
Congratulations to General John Kelly. Today we celebrate his...
Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg is not going anywhere, if she has her way.
She’s determined to outlast a Trump first term, but even she isn’t betting on outlasting a second Trump term.
NTK Network reported today that The New York Times and Associated Press sought emails from Ashley Kavanaugh, the wife of Supreme Court nominee Judge Brett Kavanaugh, when she worked as “town manager of The Village of Chevy Chase Section 5.”
The publications requested these emails under the Maryland Public Information...
Before the Trump-Putin summit, the media and Democrat frenzy focused on Trump’s nomination of Brett Kavanaugh to fill the seat being vacated by Anthony Kennedy.
It was Kavanaugh Derangement Syndrome:
So this is my quick take on the nomination of Brett Kavanaugh.
My overwhelming focus as the drama unfolded tonight was not Kavanaugh’s record. I’m not sufficiently familiar with Kavanaugh’s record to reach an independent judgment on him. But Kavanaugh has passed muster with a wide range of conservatives who are familiar...
It’s here. What you’ve all been waiting for. At 9 p.m. Trump makes the formal introduction of his nominee to replace Justice Anthony Kennedy on the Supreme Court.
It’s getting crazy out here on the internet.
Trump names his nominee to replace Justice Anthony Kennedy at a live press conference at 9 p.m. tonight. Trump did a pretty good job keeping the selection on the quiet with Neil Gorsuch, and as of this writing, there have been no definitive leaks....
As the July 9 date for Trump to announce his pick to replace Justice Anthony Kennedy nears, there is a vicious multi-front war evolving.
Of course, Democrats are attacking every likely nominee, with the anti-Catholic bigotry against Amy Coney Barrett the most prominent. Barrett would be the most finger-in-the-liberals-eye pick, and not...
Amy Coney Barrett faced the wrath of anti-Catholics during her confirmation hearings for the Seventh Circuit Court of Appeals.
The same anti-Catholic rhetoric has emerged once again as her name is rumored to be on the short list to replace retiring Supreme Court Justice Anthony Kennedy. Democrat Senate candidate and conspiracy theorist...
Neil Gorsuch was an incredibly safe pick for Trump. Despite the plaintive wails of Democrats about a “stolen” seat, they didn’t have much with which to go after Gorsuch on the merits.
Nonetheless Democrats filibustered Gorsuch, forcing Republican’s to play the nuclear option for a SCOTUS nominee (as Democrats did in 2013...
Former Texas Supreme Court Justice, and now 5th Circuit Judge, Don Willett has been a favorite of conservatives and libertarians for a long time.
Prof. Glenn Reynolds recently commented:
This is the year of Dread at the loss of institutions and the seeming impossibility of regaining them anytime soon.
I wish I had a Dread Clock, similar to the Doomsday Clock.
Kenneth Marcus is the nominee to lead the Office of Civil Rights in the Department of Education.
Marcus is uniquely qualified for the position, we wrote when he was nominated in October 2017:
Gina Haspel made history today when she became the first female CIA director. From Fox News:
Haspel was confirmed Thursday as CIA director, becoming the first woman to lead the agency after overcoming initial Democratic opposition regarding her role in post-9/11 interrogation and detention practices.

Pretty much since the 2016 election we’ve been tracking the potential Donald Trump has to fundamentally alter the federal judiciary.
At various times we’ve expressed frustration with the ability of Democrats to slow down the Senate confirmation process. We’ve also recognized that for the most part Judiciary Chair Chuck Grassley and Majority...
Scott Adams, famed Dilbert cartoonist and political pundit, posed a great question on his most recent podcast: Why is there no American Ambassador to Singapore, the enormously wealth city state that is host the historic peace summit between the United States and North Korea?
