Kevin McCarthy had something of a coming out moment this week.  The House minority leader’s marathon, midnight hours speech panning the “Build Back Better” agenda put forward by the White House was likewise panned. Never one to hold his tongue, Richard Hanania, president of the Center for the Study of Partisanship and Ideology, said “I

It’s 2020 and déjà vu all over again. Athletes misled by President Joe Biden and corrupt left-stream media are once again overdosing on white supremacy Kool-Aid.  False narratives over the Kyle Rittenhouse verdict are pushing them over the edge, just as the Jacob Blake incident did a year ago. Based on their rhetoric, it’s not a

Based on public polling and the media narrative, the 2020 election was a major reset of Trumpism, and America was desperately looking for a return to the normalcy and competence that was lacking while Trump was in office. Given how the political winds had shifted, and Democrats were handed one-party government. All they needed to

Former U.S. assistant attorney Neama Rahmani said there is “no question” that Kyle Rittenhouse will face civil lawsuits from the families of the people he killed within a matter of months or even weeks. A jury acquitted Rittenhouse on Friday of all charges related to the killings of Joseph Rosenbaum and Anthony Huber. Rittenhouse testified

President Joe Biden campaigns for Democratic candidate for governor of Virginia Terry McAuliffe at a rally in Arlington, Va., October 26, 2021. (Jonathan Ernst/Reuters) An interesting “growing fears” piece appeared in the WaPo about Joe Biden’s prospects in 2024: “One Democrat involved in campaigns said they couldn’t think of a single person they had spoken to

Are they sore losers? Maybe, but either way, ABC spent part of Sunday’s Good Morning America hoping that the families of Kyle Rittenhouse’s so-called “victims” would sue him in civil court. This comes after the teen was found not guilty and that he justly used legal self-defense against multiple violent attackers who were rioting. Beyond

Despite Biden’s assurances that he plans to run for reelection in 2024, his advanced age, diminished mental acuity, and tanking approval have given us more than enough reasons to doubt that he will. Longtime Biden confidant Chris Dodd, the former senator from Connecticut, contributed to those doubts when he suggested to the New York Times

A few weeks ago, JD Washington wrote a piece headlined: “Anthony Fauci deserves to be charged, not just fired.” I couldn’t say it better than that. Washington notes the palpable outrage expressed by the public and politicians over the disturbing research on dogs. Like Washington, I too was disgusted by that research but also left

Reactions among Wisconsin politicians to the news that Kyle Rittenhouse was found not guilty on all charges are splitting along party lines. Wisconsin’s lieutenant governor Mandela Barnes, the frontrunner in the 2022 Democratic Senate primary, issued a statement expressing dismay. “[T]he innocence of Kyle Rittenhouse was virtually demanded by the judge,” Barnes said, adding that

The press will never forgive Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, a 2024 Republican presidential contender, for flouting conventional wisdom on Covid restrictions and successfully opening the state back up for schools, businesses, and life in general earlier than his peers.

The mayor of Rotterdam called it “an orgy of violence” as thousands of young people flooded the streets to protest against recently reimposed pandemic restrictions.

Camas, WA – After the Kyle Rittenhouse acquittal, GoFundMe explained why it acted as a jury, judge and executioner as it removed fundraisers for Rittenhouse’s legal fees, while Jeffrey Toobin made a mockery of the justice system  using false equivalence and wondering in a Tweet  “..what the verdict would be in the #RittenhouseTrial oif the defendant were

Democratic congressman Sean Patrick Maloney, chairman of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee, issued a statement on Friday in which he said that it is “disgusting and disturbing that someone was able to carry a loaded assault rifle into a protest against the unjust killing of Jacob Blake, an unarmed Black man, and take the lives

In Kenosha, Kyle Rittenhouse has now been found not guilty on all counts. Not content with setting a wildly error-filled left-wing narrative that Rittenhouse is a white supremacist, a racist, a vigilante – yada yada yada as Jerry Seinfeld use to say – MSNBC took things a step further. This week, before the verdict was

If anything became apparent during the Rittenhouse trial, it’s that there was a lot of misinformation out there. Unfortunately, like everything else, the trial was heavily politicized, pitting the right against the left — and as usual, the left got so much about this case wrong. Anyone who watched the trial would have realized from

On Friday afternoon, Kyle Rittenhouse — a teenager who, last August, shot at three Black Lives Matter demonstrators by whom he was confronted and assaulted, killing two and injuring another — was acquitted on all charges. Despite being faced with ample evidence suggesting Rittenhouse’s innocence, the left continued to push for a guilty verdict so

When are voters like angry toddlers suffering a “temper tantrum?” When they make decisions that powerful liberal journalists don’t like. Things like electing a lot of conservative Republicans.   A lot will happen between now and November 8, 2022. But currently, things are looking grim for the Democrats. One poll this week show a GOP congressional

I have to admit that lately, I’ve been wondering whether liberals are even human. Yes, I understand that they are (technically) part of the human race, but have you noticed how they seem driven by issues that defy human nature? I certainly have. Recent weeks have made it clear that the left doesn’t possess two basic human

House Democrats voted Friday to pass the so-called “Build Back Better” plan, a multi-trillion-dollar welfare and climate change spending bill. They’re heralding it as a major accomplishment that will uplift struggling Americans and revitalize the economy. So, let’s review all the reasons it’s an utterly terrible piece of legislation.  First, the cost is astronomical. The

Massachusetts State House in Boston (Pixabay) In Virginia, Glenn Youngkin’s successful gubernatorial campaign criticized a divisive mode of identity politics in public schools. Some Republicans in Massachusetts are taking the opposite approach: sponsoring legislation that entrenches an identity-politics bureaucracy.

CNN’s Chris Cuomo seemed to be itching to catch a defamation suit from innocent Kyle Rittenhouse as he opened his Friday show after the not guilty verdict was handed out, calling him a “chump” filled with “animus” for the people in the Black Lives Matter riot who managed to trick the jury. He even suggested Rittenhouse

After returning to the White House following his colonoscopy, Joe Biden was asked about the Kyle Rittenhouse verdict by the White House press pool and gave a rather bland response. “I stand by what the jury has concluded,” Biden said. “The jury system works and we have to abide by it.” But later, Biden released

BROWNSVILLE, Texas — U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) officers at the Veterans International Bridge intercepted a load of alleged cocaine, hidden within a 2013 Nissan. “This seizure demonstrates the high level of vigilance on the part of our officers who use multiple resources to keep dangerous narcotics from entering our country and keep our

Responding to the decision, the attorney general of New York, Letitia James, explained that

GoFundMe is bizarrely trying to defend its ban on fundraising for Kyle Rittenhouse. The fundraising platform previously banned fundraisers dedicated to raising money to aid in Kyle Rittenhouse’s legal defense. After Rittenhouse’s acquittal on Friday, the platform again tried to justify its decision to ban fundraisers to defend against “violent crimes.” “GoFundMe’s Terms of Service

Admittedly, I know nothing about the political views of Kyle Rittenhouse or his family. At face value, it might seem easy to infer that a legal gun owner who has been trained to shoot is conservative. That’s an assumption that really can’t be made in the upper midwest, however. There are a lot of Democrats

Two suspected Iranian hackers were charged for posing as supporters of former President Donald Trump and sending threatening messages to U.S. voters, the Department of Justice announced Thursday.
