Ten of those apprehended were on the terror watch list. Enough fentanyl was seized to kill every single American Tune in as former acting Department of Homeland Security Secretary Chad Wolf answers: What is going on at the southern border?

Kellyanne Conway: "I. . . survived many people trying to take me down and push me out, and I won't forget that."   Former Trump senior counselor Kellyanne Conway sat down with Washington Times Opinion Editor Charlie Hurt and Washington Times Commentary Editor Kelly Sadler in a fiery interview to discuss her new book, Here's the Deal, her time in the White House, and critiques of Trump's 2020 campaign team.    "If Washington is a town where people have mastered the art of backstabbing, Kellyanne Conway is not a backstabber," said Charlie during the interview. "You see her coming and you better be prepared for it." The gloves are off in this latest episode of the Politically Unstable podcast. Listen now.

"You can't compare it to Watergate because it would be a disservice to all of the people involved in Watergate, this is so much worse." Washington Times Opinion Editor Charlie Hurt gives his take on the explosive allegations in the Durham probe. Charlie tells Andy Parks about how, after ignoring the story that broke Saturday, a few left-tilting news sites bestirred themselves late Monday with articles focused on rebutting or downplaying the report. And then, say what you want about Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, but one thing is for sure. The “political bad girl” has not gone all Washington on her constituents back home in Georgia. Charlie shares details on his recent sit-down with Marjorie Taylor Greene and the reaction to her arrival in Washington.

"It is always wonderful to have new allies fighting to save our country. It is also delightful when hopeless nerds entertain us with their pretzel logic and fancy words." Washington Times Opinion Editor Charlie Hurt joins Andy Parks with a look back at how the loudest voices in political conversation are the most out of touch with regular voters. Self-awareness is generally not the strong suit of the intellectual, literary rowboat cruise ship set in New York City.

Look! Over there! War in Ukraine! Washington Times Opinion Editor Charlie Hurt joins Andy Parks and says President Biden is a desperate, dangerous weapon-wielding idiot who suffers from the profound delusion that he is some kind of expert on the world stage and knows what he is doing. Charlie says only in Washington could a fool with Biden's record of failure, dishonesty and disaster keep getting promoted until reaching the highest office in the land. We saw what a disaster Biden was at ending the war in Afghanistan. Who on earth would trust him to start a new one?

It is only right and fitting that we give a little shoutout to President Biden this Christmas as we close out the first year of his historically disastrous presidency. So says Washington Times Opinion Editor Charlie Hurt. Charlie tells Andy Parks he's not sure whether Biden is aware of how disastrous it is. At least you can't say Biden hasn't unified America. Despite his very best efforts to divide us, everyone this year is uniting around this simple Yule Tide refrain. Let's go, Brandon!

Washington Times Opinion Editor Charlie Hurt tells Andy Parks that in Chicago, the dead vote. In Connecticut, they get elected to the United States Senate. In his latest column, 'Corpse of ‘Da Nang Dick' Blumenthal makes peace with Commies,' Charlie says Sen. Richard Blumenthal looks like an unwrapped mummy. And, he was cavorting earlier this month with his state's branch of the communist party, a group called the Connecticut People's World Committee. And people wonder why former President Donald Trump got elected and will again if he decides to run in 2024.

"It makes you want to tear your ears off." Washington Times Opinion Editor Charlie Hurt takes a look at the politicians who thronged the Capitol Rotunda and the National Cathedral to remember the life of Dole — at least to remember the life of Dole as it related to them. Charlie tells Andy Parks: "These people might be monstrous failures in everything they do, but at least they are consistent." All this self-celebration was particularly off-key considering the man these people were supposed to be remembering.

It has been 50 years of scalding debate since the High Court seized control of abortion away from voters and elected legislatures. Never in that half-century has Roe v. Wade been so threatened as it is right now. Washington Times Opinion Editor Charlie Hurt joins Andy Parks with his take on the latest abortion case before the United States Supreme Court. Charlie says the only question, at this point, is how much one of those justices will allow the political storms outside the Court's chamber to affect his decision.

"Don't mention the war!" Washington Times Opinion Editor Charlie Hurt tells Andy Parks, as history teaches with wrath, politeness is often a luxury of the powerful. It was revealed that the World Health Organization skipped the letter “Xi” in the Greek alphabet so they could name the newest variant of the China Virus “Omicron” instead and spare Chinese President Xi Jinping the embarrassment of having one of his variants named after him.

The eternal question of our time: Is the media evil or stupid? Washington Times Opinion Editor Charlie Hurt sits down with Andy Parks to ask (and answer) the big questions after the Kyle Rittenhouse verdict. Is it possible they are both? Charlie says he was trying to get to a one-or-the-other answer but it wasn't happening. "Go back and look at the definition of vigilantism." Charlie explains that defending yourself is not vigilantism. Yet, still today, the media persists in telling the same lies over and over and over again.
