By Jarrett Stepman ~ California, the richest state in the nation—and one that’s often portrayed as the progressive harbinger of the future for the rest of the country—has been hit with its latest Third World-style disaster. On top of high poverty rates, skyrocketing homelessness, rising crime, and the return of medieval-sounding diseases, the state—specifically, the […]
By Duggan Flanakin ~ Why are the World Bank and other international institutions promoting widespread use of charcoal for heating and cooking in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA)? During the recent 2019 “climate week,” the United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change touted increased reliance on biomass – which already comprises 60 percent of European renewable energy – […]
By David Wojick, Ph.D. ~ The climate change debate has never been as hot in Europe as it is in America, but that has now changed some. At least 500 experts, mostly Europeans, have signed a ” Declaration that there is no climate emergency” which has been delivered to the Secretary General of the United […]
By Peter Murphy ~ Next to outright physical child abuse, is there anything worse than harming a child’s psyche by telling him or her—falsely—that the world is soon coming to an end? Must children be made to feel guilty for supposedly harming the planet by eating red meat, drinking from a plastic bottle, tossing a […]
By Craig Rucker ~ What happened to CNN? Almost 30 years ago, CNN delivered bold and courageous on the ground reporting of Operation Desert Storm in Kuwait and Iraq. It was a testimony to the freedom of the press in action. Fast forward to today, and alas, CNN has flushed its courageous reporting and matter-of-fact […]
Will leftist indoctrination in politics, business, media, Hollywood, and academia finally bear fruit? ~ Arnold Ahlert ~ The first two Democrat Party presidential debates last week were almost surreal. These contenders for the Oval Office openly espouse abortion up to the moment of birth, gun confiscation, free college, reparations for black, Native, and homosexual Americans, student-loan […]
By Lars Hagen ~ Good News: Judge Brett Kavanaugh is now the 9th member of the SCOTUS! This is critically important because if appeals to the SCOTUS from the Obama-Circuit Courts are a 4-4 tie, then the Circuit Court positions are deemed law. – The Democrats have willfully, and with malice aforethought, denigrated a distinguished Jurist […]

by Molli Nickell ~ Courtesy of Sony, a few pages leaked from Obama’s journal, detailing his plans for 2015. I SHALL saunter into my oval office by noon every single day unless I have a golf game or beer summit scheduled. I SHALL meet with my cabinet members for 15 minutes on the […]
By T. L. Jenkins ~ It was jaw dropping enough the man was elected the first time. The universe held it’s breath his first term, as it seemed a certainty the country wouldn’t make it to the end of four years. It seemed apparent (to anyone who cared to look) Barrack Obama was […]
By T. L. Jenkins The new revelation that the IRS has “lost” nearly two years worth of Lois Lerner’s emails makes the Watergate scandal seem like a bedtime story compared to this new horror that the Obama administration is attempting to perpetrate on the American public. Who is going to believe the Lerner emails and the […]
By Alan Caruba ~ The Macy’s Thanksgiving Day parade is an extraordinary logistical achievement when you consider how many bands are involved, how long it must take to make the remarkable floats and, of course, the famed balloons. I marveled, too, at the remarkable timing of the parade in which each unit occupied a specific […]
Once upon a time . . . a dark cloud settled over a country of decent-and-hard-working people. Fearful about losing their jobs, homes, and savings, everyone tossed and turned at night. But then, TAH! DAH! Along came The Prince of Hopenchange, sword of righteousness in one hand, teleprompter in the other. He spoke with such […]
By Alan Caruba ~ Wars are often unpredictable. The outcome of such conflicts is also unpredictable, but defeat in future conflicts is now being “baked into the cake” and I suspect most Americans are totally unaware of how serious this threat is. You can be sure potential and actual enemies are calculating the odds. A […]
By Noel Sheppard ~ In the midst of all the media outrage over Rush Limbaugh calling Georgetown University law student and women’s rights activist Sandra Fluke a slut, one would think political figures would shy away from using such words against their opponents, at least in public. Robert F. Kennedy Jr. clearly doesn’t think so […]
By Jim Kouri, CPP. A federal court in Bogota, Colombia, sentenced the disgraced former director of Colombia’s Administrative Department of Security (DAS) on Wednesday to 25 years in prison for his involvement in a number of crimes including murder, abuse of power and conspiracy in major crimes. Following a long and all-encompassing investigation, the Supreme […]
By Andrew Bolt Julia Gillard is now the zombie Prime Minister – the walking dead. Her government dropped yesterday to a record low in Newspoll, at just 41 per cent of the preferred vote to the Coalition’s 59. Just a quarter of voters like the job she’s doing, and from that there is no coming […]
By Andrew Bolt The threat and the demand: THE Gillard government has a fortnight to decide whether to hold an inquiry into the regulation and ownership of the media after the Greens leader Bob Brown gave notice last week he would seek to establish one. Senator Brown’s motion on Thursday went unnoticed amid the furore […]
By Andrew Bolt In Australia, the current Government led by the ALP (Australian Labor Party) is governing only in a minority capacity with the support of one member of The Australian Greens Party and three Independent Members of Parliament. Both sides, in effect, are beholden to each other, and the Independents have the most to […]
By Andrew Bolt Paul Kelly warns Labor against falling for the glib assurances that the public will thank it for backing same-sex marriage: The past year has seen a succession of journalists and celebrities telling Labor as a “no-brainer” to back same-sex marriage. Indeed, a number of state ALP conferences have called for the ALP […]
By Tom Blumer Earlier today, a grand jury convicted former Illinois Governor Rod Blagojevich, a Democrat, on 17 of 20 counts of corruption. 11 of of the guilty verdicts related to attempts to profit from the “sale” of the U.S. Senate seat Barack Obama vacated when he became president. At USA Today’s On Deadline blog […]
By Michelle Malkin “There is life after Congress for Anthony Weiner,” New York Democratic Rep. Nita Lowey grimly assured reporters on Thursday before his resignation announcement. But Weiner’s life has been nothing but Congress. Nothing but government. Nothing but taxpayer-subsidized self-perpetuation. In other words: the life of a pathetic public leech. Amid vulgar heckling brought […]
By Alan Caruba I always thought it was creepy the way Barack Hussein Obama has repeatedly referred to the likelihood of his being a one-term President. It is as if he knew, even as he campaigned in 2008, that all the loose ends and unanswered questions about his life would eventually disqualify him. It is […]
By Frank Salvato Weiner-mania: if the story weren’t so infuriating and sad – and such a damning commentary on our society – it would be laughable. Alas, here we stand at a moment in time when a sitting US congressman – a newly married, sitting US congressman – felt it was “okay” to take pictures […]
