On our very first show, I said I wanted to provide a show that informed and entertained and covered issues of the day, but one that didn’t raise your blood pressure to 300/200. Tonight, I might unintentionally violate that pledge, but there’s no way for me to cover the topic without it making you mad. I’m certainly fed up and fired up.
Over the past several weeks, there has been an avalanche of stories involving powerful men exploiting and sometimes violating younger vulnerable women. Celebrities in entertainment, news, and politics have been exposed as sexual predators and many have resigned in disgraced or been abruptly fired. These are all tragic stories, but we’ve recently just been made aware of a different kind of sex scandal involving elected officials whose salary YOU pay for.

Democrats: Hey look over here America
By Mike Huckabee
This past weekend, the media and Congressional Democrats did their best to make us look elsewhere by flashing their Flynn plea at Americans to distract them so they don’t notice what’s really going on, like the unconscionable acquittal of Kate Steinle’s sanctuary city-protected, repeat felon killer or the hard-fought Senate passage of the GOP tax reform bill.
They’re hysterically excited over the idea that Flynn, having been hounded into bankruptcy and the loss of his house by notoriously unethical prosecutors with an unlimited budget of our money ($5 million and counting) is now so desperate that he’s agreed to plead guilty to one count of making a false statement to the FBI about a matter that has nothing to do with Russian collusion to affect the election – you remember, that thing Mueller is supposed to be investigating?

Standard Operating Procedure
By Mike Huckabee
The Flynn plea actually involved him lying to the FBI about how he was allegedly told by someone in President-elect Trump’s Administration (likely Jared Kushner), shortly before the Inaugural, to contact the Russian ambassador for discussions on sanctions and an upcoming UN vote on Israel. None of that is illegal. In fact, as National Security Adviser, it was his job. It’s SOP: Obama also spoke to foreign officials before taking office about what his policies would be.

Dogs, cats and parrots
By Mike Huckabee
This will probably be the most controversial thing I post all day: a new study claims to have finally proven scientifically that dogs are smarter than cats. I have a friend who says his parrot read that study and told him they’re both still dumb animals.

The Arkansas Senate race
By Mike Huckabee
The latest unfounded rumor is that if various Administration officials swap jobs in the right way, an Arkansas Senate seat might open up and my daughter Sarah might leave her White House position to become a Senator. Note that the process all starts with Rex Tillerson leaving as Secretary of State, a scenario he describes as “laughable.”
First of all, this is all based on pure conjecture. Second, while I’m sure she would make a great Senator, I’m not aware that she’s ever had any such ambitions. Third, while I would, of course, be very proud of her, what father wants his daughter to work in the same building with Al Franken? Although if he pulled anything untoward around her, he’d be walking funny for a week and never try it again.

Defining sexual harassment
We’re hearing so many accusations of sexual harassment these days, some going back nearly 40 years, that it’s causing some people to question just how the term should be defined. The accusations run the gamut from groping, indecent exposure and physical assault to unwanted kissing, asking someone out on a date or patting a woman on her bare back. So Barna Research conducted a survey to find out just what behaviors men and women consider actual sexual harassment.
One interesting discovery: younger people (Millennials and Gen X’ers) are twice as likely to say they’ve been sexually harassed as their grandparents’ generation. Are they just more sensitive about it? Or could this be more evidence of what I talked about yesterday, that tearing down those restrictive, old fashioned standards of morality had a dark downside for women that feminists and liberals didn’t anticipate?
