New Hampshire Takeaways the Mainstream Media Missed
In the end, the polls of months ago that showed Biden the runaway winner, scoring 30 percent and more, were forgotten by election day. Mired in fifth place, he did not even break double digits. The only thing the polls got right was that Joe Biden indeed proved to be the runaway — from New Hampshire to South Carolina.

What’s the problem?
And Now a Novel Theory: Truth as a Defense
After three years of Democrat phony accusations and hoax investigations by them and their Corrupt Journalist Corps into every imaginable lie and rabbit hole, followed by half a year of Pelosi–Schiff–Nadler lies over the Ukraine phone call, the moment finally came for one rare week to unfold in Washington when, like it or not, the argument for President Trump finally gets to be heard through the interference by the corrupt media.
On Gilded Pens and Gilded Royal Idlers
We now know why Nancy Pelosi delayed submitting the articles of her Stillborn Impeachment. Her delay, her obstruction of Congress, her abuse of power, had not made much sense. But then we divined that she simply was waiting for the shipment of her commemorative pens.
