Trump's Strong Address
As President Trump said last night, the state of our union is strong. And so too was his performance!

Northam's Nonsense, A Few Observations, Anti-Semitism In Congress |
Northam's Nonsense
As you know, Big League Politics broke a huge story late Friday. It discovered that Virginia Governor Ralph Northam's (D) 1984 medical school yearbook page featured two men -- one in blackface and one in KKK robes. What transpired next was one of the most bizarre examples of crisis management I have ever seen.

The Countdown Begins, The Challenger Disaster, Never Again |
The Countdown Begins
The one-fourth of the federal government that was closed is officially open today. But there is no sign of compromise coming from the left when it comes to the construction of new barriers at the southern border. And so the countdown to the February 15th deadline for congressional negotiators to reach a deal on a homeland security package begins.

Open Again, For Now
Yesterday the Senate failed to act on two proposals to end the shutdown. As a result, 800,000 federal workers missed their second paycheck today.
This morning, major airports began reporting serious flight delays due to an "increase in sick leave." Flights at New York's LaGuardia airport ground to a halt. Several air traffic controllers in Texas reportedly resigned.

Address Delayed
Late last night, President Trump decided to respect the prerogatives of the Speaker of the House. He announced that he would delay the State of the Union address until the partial government shutdown ends. Trump explained his decision this way:
"I am not looking for an alternative venue for the [State of the Union] Address because there is no venue that can compete with the history, tradition and importance of the House Chamber."
