The Impeachment Farce: Will The 'Smoking Gun' Backfire?

No wonder the Democrats wanted a really fast House impeachment vote. As more information comes out about the "whistleblower" and the role of House Democratic leadership to husband the gossip into a complaint - and from there to impeachment - the more it looks like another Steele Dossier. Will this farce blow up in their faces, or will their allies in the mainstream media be capable of keeping any counter-evidence from the screens of mainstream media watching America?

By David Stockman

Here is the broadest picture of the American consumer and it sure looks like there's more dropping than shopping going on. So if personal consumption spending (PCE) is the great 70% engine that's supposed to keep the GDP growing, then the August PCE report might beg to differ: Real spending grew a mere 2.27% over prior year.

Despite all the propaganda saying otherwi...

Last week House Speaker Nancy Pelosi announced impeachment proceedings against the President over a phone call made to the President of Ukraine. According to the White House record of the call, the President asked his Ukrainian counterpart to look into whether there is any evidence of Ukrainian meddling in the 2016 election and then mentioned that a lot of people were ta...

By Norm Singleton
