Would an American official advocate going to war on such a flimsy pretext? There are precedents. On Friday, the investigative journalist who goes by the name “Kanekoa” tweeted: “Victoria Nuland’s husband, Robert Kagan, wrote an open letter to George W. Bush nine days after the terrorist attacks of Sept 11, 2001, urging him to invade Iraq and remove Saddam Hussein ‘even if evidence does not link Iraq directly to the attack.’”

Deflection. Real antisemitism is coming from the BDS  (boycott Jews) movement and Leftist professors on campuses all over the country. The rise in antisemitism can be directly correlated with the hatred of Israel that is now essentially required to be a Leftist, and with the concerns for “Islamophobia” that prevent the Left from examining and resisting deeply-rooted Islamic antisemitism. Even the ADL itself has succumbed to this

Blood on his hands.

This is not your father’s FBI, or J. Edgar Hoover’s FBI, or Efrem Zimbalist Jr.’s FBI. The new woke FBI of Old Joe Biden, Merrick Garland, Christopher Wray and their henchmen is a viciously corrupt tool of the nascent authoritarian state, wielded to silence and destroy dissidents from this criminal regime’s far-Left agenda. And so it’s peculiarly fitting that the FBI is being rewarded for its thorough corruption and politicization by being given staggeringly huge new headquarters, which could end up being bigger than the Kremlin. And why not? The FBI aspires to be just as authoritarian as the Kremlin, if not more so.

California Politburo chief Gavin Newsom is a rising star on the Left and is even being touted as a possible 2024 Democrat presidential candidate. This is anomalous in the extreme in light of the fact that Newsom is energetically destroying California with ever more intrusive and expensive nanny state socialist measures, and Californians are fleeing…

The signals are everywhere that the Leftist political and media elites have decided that it’s getting to be time for Old Joe Biden to stop pretending to be president and exit the stage.

….including animal cruelty and sanitation problems in Hamtramck, one of the most densely populated cities in Michigan. They said they worry about people being traumatized by seeing the throats of goats, lambs and cows being slit in backyards, with blood splattering and entrails falling out.”

The comparison is as preposterous as it is appalling.

It wouldn’t be a day ending with a y if the establishment media didn’t find some “racism” in the United States. Where none exists, it has to be invented.

One thing is certain: the full extent of the ties between Ukraine and the posturing, self-righteous, desperately corrupt, hypocritical and self-serving U.S. Democrat establishment is not publicly known, and may never be known.

Superstition and mass hysteria are recurring features of the human condition. People used to believe that their neighbor’s wife had become a witch and was flying around doing mischief in the night. Now they believe that if you don’t subject yourself to a risky and dangerous vaccine, you’re more likely to get in a car crash.

This thief was worse than Madoff and the Democrat axis treat him like a king.

In a National Terrorism Advisory System Bulletin issued on Wednesday, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) announced portentously that “the United States remains in a heightened threat environment.” It seems that “lone offenders and small groups motivated by a range of ideological beliefs and/or personal grievances continue to pose a persistent and lethal threat to the Homeland.”…

In a National Terrorism Advisory System Bulletin issued on Wednesday, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) announced portentously that “the United States remains in a heightened threat environment.” It seems that “lone offenders and small groups motivated by a range of ideological beliefs and/or personal grievances continue to pose a persistent and lethal threat to the Homeland.”

Robert Baer, formerly of the CIA and now of CNN, reflects the worst kind of establishment hack, sounding all manner of dark and hysterical warnings against the prospect of Americans exercising a right that is guaranteed to them in the Bill of Rights, precisely because the Founding Fathers wanted to guard citizens of the new nation against regimes such as the one that dominates Washington.

The Democrats, after all, have shown over the last six years that they have mastered the art of increasing the misery of the American people while simultaneously hounding and persecuting their political opponents; they don’t have to choose one or the other.

Old Joe Biden, the ostensible president of the United States, on Wednesday held one of his Potemkin press conferences before the gathering of sycophants and propagandists known as the White House press corps.

“Let’s Declare A Pandemic Amnesty,” says The Atlantic. That’s right: the people who will hound and destroy you and make you forever unemployable for some offhand remark you made on social media fifteen years ago want you to forgive and forget that they destroyed the economy, retarded the development of millions of schoolchildren, enabled the further massive intrusion of an increasingly authoritarian federal government into our lives, and coated the society with a lingering cloud of paranoia and fear, and now that we know that it was all for nothing, they want to make sure that they don’t suffer any professional consequences. Well, the answer is clear: no.

You can’t make this stuff up.

Rock and roll pioneer and notorious wild man Jerry Lee Lewis has died, and from the looks of some of the coverage of his death, the only noteworthy thing he did was……

Farrakhan continues to enjoy respect and wield influence on the Left. During the 2020 campaign, a Joe Biden ad featured a rapper who referred to Farrakhan as his “mentor.” He is friendly with Barack Obama. A taxpayer-funded mural in New York features his image. Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-Gaza) wrote a column for Farrakhan’s blog. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has denounced Kanye West, but she has never denounced Farrakhan. Ilhan Omar has never denounced Farrakhan. Rashida Tlaib has never denounced Farrakhan. Nor has Joe Biden.

The. Horror.

What’s happening in Iran is the biggest women’s rights protest ever in the Islamic world. Yet the response from some of the leading feminists in the United States, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Ilhan Omar, and Rashida Tlaib, has been resoundingly muted.

It’s overwhelming.

The New York Times has published a lot of ridiculous articles in its day, but this is one of the most ridiculous ever. It portrays Linda Sarsour, who has led a charmed life as a darling of the Leftist intelligentsia, as the poor victim not just of the sinister “alt-right,” but of “Russian trolls,” no less.

This didn’t just happen. Someone or some group made it happen. My guess is on the Soros cabal.To what end? Political office.

CUNY “assigned its chief diversity officer, Saly Abd Alla, the former civil rights director of CAIR’s Minnesota chapter, to investigate an email sent by Kingsborough Community College (KCC) professor Jeffrey Lax, accusing its president of anti-Zionist antisemitic discrimination.”

Lax’s reaction was precise and succinct: “We don’t want Jews here. That’s the message that it sends.” According to the Daily Caller, “he noted that Alla is in charge of overseeing all discrimination investigations at the ‘single largest urban university in the country,’ which encompasses 25 campuses and close to 300,000 students. ‘When you have someone from CAIR leading a discrimination office throughout the university, you are the biggest cause of the antisemitism.’”

The September 11, 2001 jihad terror attacks were twenty-one years ago, and Americans have moved on. Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Mogadishu) was widely ridiculed and even reviled a few years ago for breezily characterizing 9/11 as the day when “some people did something,” but she has had the last laugh: the coverage of the attacks every…

On September 1, 2022, the 83rd anniversary of the Nazi invasion of Poland, Joe Biden stood before an ominous red and black backdrop and declared that “Donald Trump and the MAGA Republicans represent an extremism that threatens the very foundations of our republic.” We have heard this kind of rhetoric before. And because we have heard it before, we know where it leads.

It isn’t as if we weren’t warned. Many people have observed for years now that the total exclusion of morality from the public square, and the refusal to declare that any behavior was wrong in itself, would lead to the normalization of all manner of abhorrent behavior. Such warnings seem almost quaint now, with drag queens in primary schools and toddlers being encouraged to undergo radical body mutilation

Public schools even for the youngest children are becoming playgrounds for the woke, featuring drag queens, transgender closets, Critical Race Theory and more, but if you say a word about it, the National Education Association (NEA) will destroy you. That is the message of a new YouTube ad from the NEA’s New Jersey chapter. According…

There couldn’t be a better occasion for government and law enforcement authorities and the establishment media to end their denial and obfuscation about Islam and jihad than an attack on the world’s highest-profile “blasphemer,” but no such luck. Thirty-three years after the death fatwa was pronounced against Salman Rushdie and a bounty put on his…

What could possibly go wrong?

The First Amendment says that “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof,” but make no mistake: we do have an established religion in the United States today. It’s woke Leftism.

Imagine if a sitting member of the House of Representatives had had campaign events organized by alleged financiers of the Ku Klux Klan. He or she would already have resigned in disgrace. But Rashida Tlaib won’t even be asked about this…

The Jan. 6 Stalinist show trial is a naked attempt to demonize and ultimately criminalize legitimate political opposition in the United States, and so it comes as no surprise that the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC), one of the Left’s premier, well-heeled, and most ruthless attack dogs, would be involved.

The Left is embracing totalitarianism at a rapid clip, and that all too many Leftists are just fine with the idea that if you hold political opinions that they deem unacceptable, you should be harassed and hounded anywhere and everywhere, presumably until you’re simply too exhausted to continue to dissent from their agenda. Their totalitarian is showing, without concealment or apology.

Would Joe Biden’s military cover up the identity of this perpetrator in Syria to avoid tarnishing the image of Islam? You bet your life.

The Left seems intent on destroying the country in pursuit of unchallenged political power in it.

Fires and other disasters hitting oil, food, and coal industries….and now, thousands of dead cows.

If you want to talk about an insurrection, Jan. 20, 2017 was much closer to one than anything that happened on Jan. 6, 2021, especially in light of the fact that it was followed by four years of the false charges of Russian Collusion against Trump, complete with a multimillion-dollar investigation and two impeachments over nothing. The ones who really tried to interfere with the peaceful transfer of power, the ones who have been busy working to subvert and control what should be a free electoral process in the United States, are the ones who are shouting the loudest about the Jan. 6 “insurrection”….

As the insanity of American society today gallops forward, it came to light Sunday that Ballentine Elementary School in Wake County Park, North Carolina has been using LGBTQ-themed flashcards featuring a pregnant man to teach young children colors.

Pull you children out of government schools before they are irrevocably harmed.

America has crossed the Rubicon.

Is this what the Americans who gave their lives for freedom died for? Did they die so that Leftist authoritarianism could descend upon the United States? Did they die for the forcible silencing of legitimate, non-violent, lawful political dissent? Did they die so that these privileged elites could decide who gets to speak and who gets a platform to be heard, and who does not?

American Muslims for Palestine (AMP) is one of the most prominent groups in the United States advocating for the Palestinian jihad and spreading propaganda against Israel. While this makes it the darling of some Leftist circles, it has a predictably sinister pedigree. The Investigative Project on Terrorism (IPT) on Thursday reported that a federal judge…

The Islamic Society of North America (ISNA) is the largest Muslim organization on the continent, and easily one of the most sinister. ISNA manifested its truly evil agenda once again recently, when it issued a statement denouncing “Israeli violence against Palestinian worshipers” without, not surprisingly, bothering to notice that those “worshipers” were actually Islamic jihadis who were stockpiling stones and other material to use as weapons in attacks against Israeli civilians.

Ammar Campa-Najjar is the “grandson of Mexican immigrants,” a failed Congressional candidate, and currently a Democratic candidate for mayor of Chula Vista, California. He has received the endorsement of the Chula Vista firefighters’ union. He is also a committed Leftist, as his capsule bio at Ballotpedia reveals: “Campa-Najjar worked on Barack Obama’s presidential re-election campaign as…

The chief of America’s new Thought Police, Disinformation Governance Board executive director Nina Jankowicz, is really excited about taking up her new duties. In fact, this is her dream job.

Teaming up to impose Sharia blasphemy laws and restrict the freedom of speech in the West under the guise of prohibiting “Islamophobia.”

Don’t laugh. The House passed the “islamphobia” bill in December.

An hour before midnight on Saturday, April 16, as millions of Christians around the world were preparing to celebrate Easter, Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Mogadishu), who was not, was on Twitter. She sent around a video captioned “Worshipping Jesus 30,000 Feet In The Air,” showing a young man with a guitar leading what appears to be…

Remember Darrell Brooks, Jr.? On November 21, 2021, he plowed his car through the Waukesha Christmas Parade in Wisconsin, murdering six people and injuring 61. Remember Noah Green? On April 2, 2021, he rammed his car into a barricade at the U.S. Capitol, murdering one person and injuring another. You don’t hear very much about them nowadays, because their cases don’t fit the establishment media narrative. And now the same cone of silence is descending upon the case of Frank James, the man who shot ten people and injured another 19 on the subway in Brooklyn on Tuesday.

Brooks, Green, and James shared the same ideology: they were all black nationalists who hated white people and believed that they could never get a fair shake in an America dogged by systemic racism and white supremacy. In other words, they hewed closely to the standard Leftist worldview of today, but their violence didn’t fit the standard media narrative.

Emigration for the sake of Allah involves Islamizing one’s new home. So if Faaruuq doesn’t like it here, if he keeps on preaching Islam and getting others to do so, eventually he will like it just fine, because it will be just like Sudan or Afghanistan. Some people are working hard right now to bring that about.
