‘Young People … Taking an Interest in Peace and Social Justice’

We now have a new synonym for rioters, coined by Maryland Democrat Rep. Jamie Raskin, to describe the pro-Hamas mob that attacked the Democratic National Committee headquarters in D.C. last week: Jake Tapper, CNN: But I want to ask you about the video this week of the pro-Palestinian protest outside the DNC that turned violent, […]

Can You Guess Which One of These Men Is (Allegedly) a Homosexual Pedophile?

Let me begin by thanking Ace of Spades for inspiring this little contest. Both of the two men pictured above are liberal journalists. One of them is a frequent guest on the MSNBC program Morning Joe, and the other one was recently arrested on child pornography charges: Court documents cited by the Berkshire Eagle earlier […]

Still Living Rent-Free in Their Heads

Just scrolling around and saw this headline: A lot of Americans embrace Trump’s authoritarianism What is this? “Authoritarianism”? Words have meanings, but to liberals in the throes of Trump Derangement Syndrome, definitions are distorted to such an extent that words like “authoritarianism” and “fascism” get tossed around haphazardly, reflecting the emotional trauma of people who […]

NBC ‘News’ Hosts ‘Republican’ ‘Debate’

Excuse me for overloading on the scare-quotes in the headline, but let’s not kid ourselves: None of the five “candidates” (there I go again) on the stage in Miami is likely to be the 2024 Republican nominee.

Anyway, the question in the headline crossed my mind after reading KiwiFarms founder Joshua Moon’s complaint about how payment processors have blacklisted him. That was referenced in a comment on yesterday’s post about how Instapundit got demonetized by Google Adsense because of allegedly […]

CNN Ratings Hit Historic Low

An audience so tiny you need a microscope to see it: Ratings-challenged CNN hit rock bottom in a key viewership demographic last weekend — another sign of the difficulties facing incoming boss Mark Thompson. The cable news network logged its worst weekend ratings on record in the all important 25- to 54-year-old demo, according to […]

The Delusions of Michael Tomasky

How can anyone be so out of touch with reality as to believe that Joe Biden is a victim of Republican bias in the media? It’s often asked in my circles: Why isn’t Joe Biden getting more credit for his accomplishments? As with anything, there’s no single reason. Inflation is a factor. His age is […]

CNN’s Fake ‘Fact Check’

My friend Matt Vespa at Townhall highlights how CNN, in its role as Democratic Party propaganda machine, produced a disgustingly deceptive “fact check” of Joe Biden’s foreign influence-peddling scandal. As I’ve said before of the evidence in the case, it’s a smoking gun next to a bloody corpse. If I could get in the face […]
