We'd guess that before President Trump is out of office (in 8 years, or 4 years, or 4 months, or something else), there will be many other occasions to comment on his grasp of the Islamic threat. So we'll treat this as ‘Part 1 of Many Parts' to come. President Trump...
The leftist stranglehold on acceptable thought in academia--a/k/a political correctness--can feel relentless and oppressive and, because of the lockstep liberal media echo chamber, can seem to be winning the day against the very idea of truth. But every now and then a Wizard of Oz moment occurs; the curtain is pulled...
The mainstream media, the ruling class of both political parties, and now much of the punditry class have joined in fanning the flames of outrage over the conduct of Donald Trump as President. They are fomenting a fury of anger among the American people, but here’s the untold story: the bulk...
In all the hullaballoo over the MSM’s recent report of Trump sharing classified information with the Russians, an obvious question with enormous implications is not being asked: is the ‘leaker’ one or more rogue American spying agencies? Americans have already witnessed Mike Flynn being taken down because what he reportedly told...
Consumers of mainstream media ‘news’ likely will not know the name and the story of “Seth Rich”. Americans need to learn it, and fast. Because with James Comey out as Director of the FBI, there’s a chance the full truth of what happened to Seth Rich will come out—and if it...

We’ve long feared that even though he has some good instincts, the absence of any ideological mooring to Donald Trump would be his undoing. His apparent determination to view the House Freedom Caucus as his political enemies is evidence of this vulnerability. Today’s Trump tweet: The Freedom Caucus will hurt the...
As bad as ‘fake news’ is, the failure to report news is just as bad. In the only significant poll taken on the public perception of the Ryancare bill, with results released just days before the since-cancelled House vote, a grand total of 17% of Americans polled favored approval of Ryancare,...
FBI Director James Comey continued in his self-appointed role of Master Puppeteer of Washington politics in his testimony to the House Intelligence Committee yesterday. He delighted Democrats, kept the GOP edgy, and Trump on his toes by confirming an ongoing investigation of Russian ‘collusion’ with Trump campaign operatives. He attempted to put...
UPDATE March 11, 2017: Andy McCarthy has posted in National Review online an extensive apology to the NYT; apparently, the NYT didn't change its headline--it just maintains different headlines for the same story, depending on whether the story is in print or online. Kudos to McCarthy for his integrity, but count...
