Ted Cruz DUNKS on PolitiFact for Beto; The Protests Are Laughable
On Monday, PolitiFact editor Angie Drobnic Holan wrote an article expressing her frustration that Sen.

‘The Unhoused?’ Homelessness Gets the PC Treatment at Washington Post
Remember the first outbreak of PC years ago? Back then it was a distant, isolated phenomenon -- an exotic STD localized to college campuses.
