Today's Edition
--------------------------
Join me tonight on TBN for another newsmaking episode of “Huckabee!” My guests will include Rep. Devin Nunes, who was at the center of exposing the Deep State “coup” and is now fighting to put the real Corruptocrat-in-Chief on the witness stand.
I’ll also welcome Bill O’Reilly and World Series pitcher Barry Zito. And to celebrate Veterans’ Day, Col. Smitty Harris will share his incredible story of survival as a Vietnam POW. We’ll honor “Huck’s Heroine” Suzette Graham of the terrific veterans’ aid group Patriot Angels; and cap it off with some World War II-style, big band harmonies from the Swing Dolls.
All that and more is coming your way tonight at 8 and 11 EST, 7 and 10 CST, and the same times on Sunday, on TBN.

FEATURED STORY
About that ABC story
Friday, I told you about the Olympic-level hypocrites at ABC and CBS who took time out from lecturing the rest of us against identifying or punishing whistleblowers so that ABC could snitch to CBS that one of their current employees was suspected of being the whistleblower who exposed ABC’s spiking of the Jeffrey Epstein sexual predator story, and CBS fired her. You’d think the story couldn’t get any worse.
Well, it did.
https://www.westernjournal.com/insider-behind-epstein-leak-breaks-silence-abcs-seek-destroy-mission/
It now appears that the young woman ABC accused of leaking their reprehensible cover-up of the smart set’s favorite serial pedophile and whom CBS fired was completely innocent. Her name is Ashley Bianco, and in an interview with NBC’s Megyn Kelly, she claimed that she is not the whistleblower, and the first time she’d heard of this was when Project Veritas released the video of ABC anchor Amy Robach privately complaining about ABC higher-ups killing her expose on Epstein and his powerful pals, including Bill Clinton. In a way, we could add Ms Bianco’s name to the list of females victimized by Epstein even posthumously, thanks to the complicity of his media enablers.
Ms Bianco tearfully said she just wants her career back and for people to know she didn’t do it. Personally, I think she should hire a really tough lawyer. I hope she ends up with a new career as the owner of ABC and/or CBS.
ABC apparently fingered her as having accessed the tape and leaped to the conclusion that she was the whistleblower (so of course, she had to be immediately identified and punished, because whistleblower protections are just for people who blow the whistle on people you don’t like.)
Meanwhile, the ABC insider who claims to be the real whistleblower released an anonymous letter through Project Veritas, expressing sympathy for Ms Bianco, apologies to Ms Robach and “complete shock” at how ABC has handled, or mishandled, this entire episode, from covering for the guilty to lashing out at the innocent.
Key excerpt:
“I, like many, are at a loss for words on how this has been handled. Instead of addressing this head-on like the company has in the past, it has spun into a mission of seek-and-destroy. Innocent people that have absolutely nothing to do with this are being hunted down as if we are all a sport. I challenge all of you to actually look inwards and remember why this company engages in journalism. We all hold the First Amendment at the foundation of this company, yet forget its history, its purpose, and its reasoning for even coming into existence to begin with. How lost we are…yearning to be found. I went to Project Veritas for the sole reason that any other media outlet would have probably shelved this as well. I thank all of them, and James, for seeking truth.”
Those last two sentences are the most damning of the lot. An insider at ABC, one of our largest and most powerful “news” outlets, realized that of all the places he or she could have taken this explosive story, the only one that wouldn’t have buried it is the scrappy little underdog outfit the mainsteam media routinely vilify. They’re the only one that puts seeking truth above the self-serving interests of powerful and well-connected elites. (Although let me put in a word for Fox News, the only 24-hour news channel that actually covered this story from the get-go.)
Finally, at this link, Charles Glaser of Instapundit ponders a few possible legal options Ms Bianco might consider and their relative chances of success.

He thinks odds are that CBS will end up writing a very big check to make this go away. Well, to make HER go away. But the rest of us are not going to let this go away for a long, looooooong time. Expect to hear it brought up every time the mainstream media go off on a self-righteous lecture about protecting whistleblowers.

I wanted to make sure you also read these comments:
Here’s your weekend project: Make a #MAGACHALLENGE rap video and win a trip to the White House.
https://www.foxnews.com/politics/trump-announces-magachallenge-rap-battle-on-twitter
Notice that the pro-Trump videos are all fun, positive and upbeat, and the anti-Trump tweets reproduced there are filled with anger and bile. This is yet another reason why the Democrats hate Trump: they could never come up with something fun like this. They've become the Anti-Fun Party. And even if they tried to copy it, what would be the prize? Dinner with Greta Thunberg, with her glaring at you the whole time for using a plastic straw? Hard pass.

Weekend update on the Democratic Presidential rodeo: If you wonder why Michael Bloomberg and Hillary Clinton might be thinking it’s not too late to dive in and nab the nomination, note that Elizabeth Warren…
...and Bernie Sanders…
...are both currently engaged in a battle to see who can most effectively end immigration enforcement, tear down our borders, wave in the most illegal immigrants and do away with the whole concept of the United States of America as a sovereign nation.
It’s hard to pick who gets the win here. Both of their plans are easily crazy enough to impress the Dems’ wacko far-left primary voters. And you have to give points to Bernie for creativity for letting in 50,000 “climate migrants” (does anyone else hear that and think of New Yorkers fleeing to Florida for the winter?) But I think I have to give the edge to Warren, for not only admitting she’d stop deporting criminal illegal immigrants (because after all, why should people be deported simply because they’re in the country illegally and breaking our laws?), but also for claiming that somehow, lowering the borders and legalizing millions of illegal immigrants would help pay for her $52 trillion “Medicare For All” scheme (which would, of course, provide “free” health care for all those immigrants.)
On the other hand, I have to dock Warren a couple of points for trying to play both sides of the fence. How can she hail illegal immigrants with criminal records as our most solid citizens while at the same time tweeting that "Black trans and cis women, gender-nonconforming and nonbinary people are the backbone of our democracy"? Seriously, pander shamelessly to one identity group at a time.
