People you may not have heard much about until a few days ago, like Nick Fuentes (and perhaps Candace Owens, although I’ve certainly written about her before) are now the focus of tremendous attention. It doesn’t really do them justice … Continue reading →
I’ve been doing a lot of research for a post or series of posts on anti-Semitism on the right, and it’s got me down. First of all, the usual disclaimer: there’s much more of it on the left, and in … Continue reading →
I don’t see the Democrats capitulating and ending the shutdown. They seem to have boxed themselves into a corner. Trump is all for Senate Republicans invoking the so-called nuclear option: “Get rid of the Filibuster, and get rid of it, … Continue reading →
Remember Boasberg? I do. My first mention of him on this blog was back in 2015, concerning his ultra-liberal rulings on illegal immigration. Here’s a list of all the posts in which I mention Boasberg; there are quite a few. … Continue reading →

From commenter “djf”: The ignorance of the average voter — even the average educated, affluent voter — is difficult to fathom for those of us who are more engaged, even if we’re not obsessive about it. A year or so … Continue reading →
It’s not just what Jones said (which I covered already, here as well as here). His venomous hatred of Republicans – even to the point of wishing death on one Republican’s small children – and his failure to take responsibility … Continue reading →
Yesterday the rumors that have been circulating for weeks became official, and it was announced that Bari Weiss has become the new editor-in-chief of CBS News: “We are thrilled to welcome Bari and The Free Press to Paramount and CBS … Continue reading →
