Attorney General Steve Marshall and Congressman Mo Brooks (AL-05) have filed a suit against the federal government over how it plans to count illegal immigrants in the 2020 Census. If Marshall loses this case, it could be disastrous for the state of Alabama. Alabama has a lot at stake. If illegal immigrants are counted the […]

1. Biased FBI agent Peter Strzok has his day of public testimony, little was learned, but Strzok gave the media what they wanted — The FBI agent who worked on both the Hillary Clinton and Trump/Russia investigations wouldn’t answer questions about the Russia probe and may be held in contempt. In the past, he said there […]

1. Trump declares victory; American media declares they still don’t understand what is happening — President Donald Trump left the NATO summit with a press conference declaring that he is more committed to NATO than ever and other countries will start meeting their obligations. He’s right when he talks about how years of asking nicely […]

2018 has already been an amazingly embarrassing election cycle for desperate politicians in Alabama. We have already seen Troy King, who was/is a wholly owned subsidiary of gambling interests, accuse AG Steve Marshall of being a recipient of gambling dollars for accepting money from the Republican Attorney General Association, when King was a member of […]

1. President Trump continues to bang on NATO as he arrives for a summit — As Trump arrives in Brussels for his latest meeting with our allies, he launched an old-school attack about how they don’t pay their agreed upon GDP percentage for national security. He also hit Germany for making deals with Russia while portraying […]

During the 2017 special election, the Alabama media was hell-bent on telling Alabama voters that Sen. Doug Jones was a moderate. You could justify not voting for Roy Moore because Jones wasn’t for “full term abortion” (because the phrase doesn’t exist or something). It was a sham and we all knew it, including his enablers in the […]

1. Alabama leaders react to President Trump’s nomination — Governor Kay Ivey e-mailed, “Judge Kavanaugh clearly understands the proper role of a judge is to interpret the law as it is written and apply the law impartially.” — The ALGOP statement read, “”[T]he Alabama Republican Party calls on all members of the U.S. Senate, including […]

Political commentator Jim Hightower wrote a book about politically wishy-washy folks entitled “There’s Nothing in the Middle of the Road but Yellow Stripes and Dead Armadillos“. If you were writing that book in 2018, you might add Alabama Senator Doug Jones to that title, although it would be a bit wordy. Jones still can’t put […]

1. At 8 PM this evening President Donald Trump will reshape the court for a generation; Alabama Senator Doug Jones finally says something  — Trump has made it clear he has a list of individuals from his campaign that he will choose from. The media and Democrats will deem whoever that person is the most extreme and […]

Radio talk show host Dale Jackson and Dr. Waymon Burke take you through this week’s biggest political stories, including: — Will tariffs hurt Alabama? — Can Democrats really stop Trump’s Supreme Court pick? — Are politicians in Alabama using the immigration issue for political purposes? Congressman Mo Brooks (AL-05) joins Jackson and Burke to discuss […]

A lot of us have done dumb things while we were in college — rarely do they end up in political attack ads. In the race for Lieutenant Governor, Twinkle Cavanaugh has dug up a series of attacks that are utterly laughable if you have all the information. The attacks are creative, but appear incredibly […]

1. Trump took his insult comedy routine to Montana and blasted Sen. Jon Tester while he groveled — Trump was in Montana to stump for Matt Rosendale, but his speech touched on everything from Sen Elizabeth Warren (D-MA), #MeToo, WTO, NAFTA, NATO, the NFL, Russia, North Korea, and the military. — Tester took an ad out praising […]

This weekend, America watched as the media gleefully promoted and covered partisan pro-immigration/anti-ICE events all over the country. In Huntsville, Alabama, one of these events attracted a couple dozen people and one armed counter-protester. When Shane Sealy “brandished” his weapon after being punked-out by a liberal protester, he was arrested for having a firearm within […]

1. Democrats seem to be awfully cocksure in Alabama, but no one can explain why — Obviously, the victory of Doug Jones has energized the left in Alabama, but it is not clear there is another Doug Jones out there anywhere, and Roy Moore will not be saving them. — Over a half million voters cast […]

When all the protestations are over, President Donald Trump will have two Supreme Court Justices. When all the hand-wringing is done, conservatives will have five Supreme Court Justices. While politicians will tell you there is no “litmus test” for Republicans, that test is how will you vote on Roe v. Wade. Sen. Susan Collins is […]

1. A counter-protester pulls a gun at the Huntsville “Families Belong Together” event — A former school teacher holding an “ICE ICE Baby” sign interrupted the opening prayer at the event with multiple utterances of “WOMP! WOMP!” He was shoved to the ground and then produced a handgun. — Shane Ryan Sealy was arrested for possessing a […]

Radio talk show host Dale Jackson and Dr. Waymon Burke take you through this week’s biggest political stories including: — Will Doug Jones vote for Trump’s Supreme Court pick?? — How big a role will extreme positions on the border be for Democrats? — Have we ever seen anything like Attorney General Steve Marshall’s press […]

President Donald Trump is apparently moving at break-neck pace to select his next Supreme Court Justice before the midterm elections. Reports indicate that the choice could be made in less than two weeks. While Trump is often bashed as an impulsive leader who makes decisions single-handedly, that doesn’t appear to be the case here, a […]

1. The media bungled the story again, this was an ongoing issue with the newspaper NOT about the “tone” Trump set — The early coverage of this story followed a predictable line, journalists were killed so the president is responsible because he criticizes them regularly, and what appears to be mangled facts that he was […]

When Sen. Doug Jones beat Roy Moore to become Alabama’s junior U.S. senator, it was widely believed by everyone who was not in the mainstream media or a Jones voter, that Jones is a caretaker senator. If Jones want to keep this seat, Jones has to represent Alabama and not just his voters. To keep […]

1. President Donald Trump will get another Supreme Court Justice and Democrats will pout —Justice Anthony Kennedy will be stepping down next month, opening the door for President Donald Trump’s second pick for the bench. Senate Majority Mitch McConnell has said the pick will get a vote this fall. — MSNBC’s Chris Matthews channeled the […]

1. President Donald Trump wins legal battle over his travel ban, a year plus of pouting and speculation loses — There really is no way to spin the latest Supreme Court ruling as anything but an unmitigated total victory for Trump, the 5-to-4 ruling was based on the letter of the law not tweets or hysterical […]

Not many people will admit it, but when it comes to the travel ban, President Donald Trump was almost the reason it was knocked down. His tweets were used by a Federal judge to stall it. If you are looking for a hero, a person who is responsible for it being upheld, look no further […]

1. Try as the media might, “open borders” is an absolute political loser and that is the Democrat agenda — In a CBS news poll that shows 43 percent of the respondents are firmly against President Donald Trump, only 21 percent of them want the illegals released into the U.S. as they await a hearing, and […]
