SNOWFLAKE: GOP Sen. Flake to Quit Congress, Blames 'Reckless' Trump




Arizona GOP Senator Jeff Flake announced Tuesday he will not be seeking re-election; blaming President Trump and his supporters as “reckless” and “undignified,” and accusing the Republican Party of “giving up on their core principles.”
Flake trashed the President and his backers without naming names, alluding to those who “given in or given up on the core principles in favor of a more viscerally satisfying anger and resentment ... but anger and resentment are not a governing philosophy."
The GOP Senator is a frequent critic of the President, blasting Trump in August over his immigration policy and travel ban. Trump fired-back at Flake, saying he was “weak on borders, crime and a non-factor in the Senate.”
The Republican lawmaker was elected to the US Senate in 2012 after serving over a decade in the House of Representatives. While speaking with his colleagues, Flake took the opportunity to attack Trump and fellow Republicans.
"The notion that one should stay silent as the norms and values that keep America strong are undermined," Flake told his colleagues. "And as the alliances and agreements that ensure the stability of the entire would are routinely threatened by the level of thought that goes into 140 characters […] is a historic and, I believe, profoundly misguided."

BREAKING: Women Claiming They Were Offered Large Sums Of Money To Make Roy Moore Accusations

Ever since the Harvey Weintstein accusations first surfaced last month, there have been quite a large number of people that have been brought down in the public eye due to accusations of sexual misconduct. On the other side of the coin, accusing someone of sexual impropriety has always been a tool in political campaigns. If anyone thinks that the Paula Jones stories (which ended up being true) and Gary Hart in the 1980s were the first times this happened you are sorely mistaken As allegations that Alabama Republican Senate candidate Roy Moore had sexual contact with an underage girl almost 40 years ago roil the nationally watched race, other reports have surfaced that are taking the whole story into even more bizarre directions. On Thursday, The Washington Post reported allegations about an incident that allegedly took place in 1979 between then 32-year-old Moore and a 14-year-old girl. Now, a Twitter user identified as Doug Lewis, whose Twitter profile portrays him as a su...

Recently, many pieces of information were issued that revealed Hillary Clinton’s controversy. During the Hannity’s show, it was revealed that the DOJ has dismissed the order which was given to the FBI informant connected to the Uranium One scandal. His lawyer showed the letter which dismissed the order. According to Subject Politics, this letter will open the chance for the informant to give a testimony against Hillary and her involvement with the Uranium One deal. Even worse for Hillary, Fox Legal Analyst Greg Jarrett revealed one more information. Because the informant can testify, Jarrett revealed that Hillary can be sentenced for 13 crimes.

You’ll Boycott All of George Clooney’s Movies After Seeing To Whom He Just Donated $1 Million

Image
Some celebrities bite more than they can chew. George Clooney is one of those celebrities. The well-known liberal should stay in his lane. Clooney needs to mind his own business and stay out of politics. Running his big mouth will only destroy his public image. The Hollywood celebrity crossed the line when he funded the liberal agenda. That spilled over the already full glass. The actor is using our money that we paid for watching his movies and he is using that same money to shove the liberal agenda into our face. We paid him from our own pocket to see him entertain us. However, he is testing the political waters thanks to our own hard-earned money. The only solution will be to stop watching his movies. If you don’t know,  Clooney  brought a truckload of $1 million to support the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC). Let that sink in. Clooney went out with a public statement of his own: “Amal and I wanted to add our voice (and financial assistance) to...
