WATCH: Nancy Pelosi Forgets George Floyd's Name While Trying to 'Honor' Him


In a cringe-worthy video, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi forgot the name of George Floyd, the victim of police brutality that has sparked nationwide protests and calls for change.

The shocking personal connections between D.C. Democrats and the media


The cozy relationship between Democrats in Washington and the mainstream media became even more apparent after Obama advisor Susan Rice found herself back in the news recently.

After revelations that Rice was behind the "unmasking" of names of Trump associates in U.S. intelligence reports, ABC News ignored the story. That was because Rice has a close, personal connection ABC News that most were unaware of. She isn't the only Washington Democrat with friends and family in the same media tasked to report on them.

'Photo ID' sign at DNC highlights Democrat hyprocrisy


This photo, taken at the Democratic National Convention, was posted to Facebook by Wayne Christian, former Texas state representative and current candidate for Texas Railroad Commissioner.  It shows a sign requiring delegates to show a photo ID to receive credentials and participate in convention activities. The procedure seems to fly in the face of the Democrats' political position that photo IDs should not be required to vote. It is not clear from where the photo originated.

"The hypocrisy of the Democrat Party never ceases to amaze me," Christian said in the Facebook post. "This photo taken at the Democrat Convention shows that the party requires photo identification to participate as a delegate at convention. This is the same party that describes Voter ID as an 'unnecessary restriction on those seeking to exercise freedom.'"

The irony was not lost on conservatives, who took the photo viral on social media. The Democratic party has not commented on the photo.


Democrats in Congress show hypocrisy over the minimum wage hike

While we all can agree that workers should be paid fairly, this push to hike the minimum wage is a seriously misguided attempt that will hurt the very people it wants to help. Ironically, as this graphic from PolicyMic.com shows, most of the congressmen supporting the hike don't even bother to pay their interns. Republicans shouldn't laugh too loudly at the hypocrisy; of the 4% that do, all are either Democrats or Independents. The GOP is much like the rest of Congress, and doesn't compensate their interns either. You can click here to see the full PolicyMic article about the 96%.

Mike Flynn of Breitbart.com has an excellent article about the myths surrounding the minimum wage issue, which you can read for yourself by clicking right here. Perhaps the most surprising fact about minimum wage workers comes from the Department of Labor itself, which states that out of 75 million hourly wage earners, only 1.2 million earn minimum wage, with most of those young workers just entering the work force.

Hillary Clinton gets climate change advice from Indiana Jones

If adventure has a name, it must be Indiana Jones. If political opportunism has a name, it must be Hillary Clinton. How else can you explain the former Secretary of State making a rare public appearance in the midst of multiple scandals breaking to discuss climate change with Dr. Jones himself, Harrison Ford?

By appearing at the event for Conservation International, Clinton is solidifing her left-wing base for a Presidential run in 2016. And hanging with Han Solo never hurts. To read more about the event, click right here to learn more with our full report at Examiner.com.

Democrats go after Donkey Kong

A California Democratic politician thinks all video gamers have a "lust for violence." I suppose we can all blame Pac-Man for that. To read all of the details yourself, click right here to check out my column.

Just try keeping up with Obama's millionaire celebrity pals

I decided to compile a list of all the celebrities that President Obama spends time with, holds fundraisers with, and gives special treatment to. I figured it was George Clooney and a handful of others. The list is at 41 and counting. You might not like some of the names here, especially if you are a fan. If you dare, click the following link to see who I named.

When Liberals Run!

Lost in all the health care hoopla is a move to get to the bottom of the Countrywide scandal, in which some Democratic members of Congress, including Chris Dodd and Kent Conrad, got sweetheart deals on mortgages in return for political favors. When Republican Rep. Daniel Issa called for a vote to subpoena records of possible phone call recordings that could shed light on the scandal, the Democratic members in the Oversight Committee took off out the back door. Love that Democratic transparency! Check out the video:
