DC World Exclusive: Venerable leftist weekly demands president’s impeachment over mass surveillance

 DAILYCALLER.COM 14 Hours Ago DC World Exclusive: Venerable leftist weekly demands president's impeachment over mass surveillance by  Eric Owens Tweet In the pages of The Nation, the oldest continuously published weekly in the country and the self-described "flagship of the left," a former member of the House of Representatives has called for  the impeachment of the president over revelations of massive government surveillance of ordinary citizens . Democrat Elizabeth Holtzman of New York, who sat on the House Judiciary Committee during the Watergate era, powerfully yet dispassionately lays out the case for the immediate impeachment of the president.

The last straw for the retired Congresswoman was the revelation that the president "directed the wiretapping of hundreds, possibly thousands, of Americans" (a number that is likely conservative). ...

Mock ‘marriage’ and the death of freedom

 WND.COM 13 Hours Ago Mock 'marriage' and the death of freedom by  Matt Barber While poorly decided U.S. Supreme Court cases are a dime a dozen, prior to Wednesday, two stood alone as the most wretched and constitutionally groundless in American History. First was the 1857 Dred Scott decision. Among other things, it robbed African-Americans of both their U.S. citizenship and their dignity. Next came the 1973 ruling in Roe v. Wade. It has robbed over 55 million U.S. citizens of their very lives.
