Bozell & Graham: McCabe, the Justice Department's Jussie Smollett
February 21st, 2019 11:12 PM
Just like his boss and hero James Comey, McCabe has written a Trump-trashing book, and like Comey, he’s getting hours and hours of air time to sell laughable notions, like the idea that the FBI has been utterly nonpartisan.

CNN's Toobin: Patriotic to Discuss Removing Trump Via 25th Amendment
February 19th, 2019 5:55 PM
Jeffrey Toobin is CNN's chief legal analyst, but he seems to be clueless about the fact that the 25th Amendment can only be invoked when a president is either physically or mentally incapacitated.
