The beauty of writing this column is that I’m almost beyond being shocked. The alt-left has successfully blurred the line between crazy (cray-cray for you younger folks) and conventional. So I wasn’t even especially shocked when I read this: “Fed Up With Mortal Men, Women Are Having Sex with Ghosts.” It’s not even a funny/punny headline. There’s […]

All it took for the media to stop viewing Alabamians as a bunch of rednecks was for the media candidate to win an election. Suddenly, journalists began seeing the people of Alabama as enlightened progressives. Staff in the CNN election night studio even cheeredoff-camera when it was announced that Democratic candidate Doug Jones jumped to the […]

The Russian nuclear deal continues to be kept under containment by media fearful that it might contaminate their ability to attack President Trump. In the latest development, The Hill reported that, an FBI informant was cleared to testify on the issue. “The Justice Department on Wednesday night released a former FBI informant from a confidentiality agreement, allowing […]

Are you a good witch or a bad witch? Answer yes either way and that might make you an alt-leftie. Marketwatch just ran an interesting piece headlined, “Why millennials are ditching religion for witchcraft and astrology.” It didn’t really tell me anything I didn’t know. Young people are embracing the occult faster than you can spell it. […]

I have a hate/hate relationship with BuzzFeed. On one hand, I think it posts a lot of useless garbage that I almost never find even the slightest bit interesting. On the other, it also produces strongly biased pseudo journalism, yet gets credentialed by the media because it’s left-wing. You’ll see BuzzFeed staff all over cable […]

It’s been nearly a year since President Trump was elected and the media have been trying to tie him to Russia for most of it. Finally, after 11 months, there’s strong evidence linking Russia to a 2016 presidential candidate. But the candidate is Hillary Clinton. According to The Hill, the FBI, “obtained an eyewitness account – […]

One of the reasons we call liberals the alt-left is their opposition to anything traditional or normal — like free speech, patriotism or marriage. Marriage has been a particular target of the left for many years. Forget the campaign for gay marriage. The left hates the institution, but it’s easier to wreck it from within […]

It takes a disaster to get more attention in the media than President Trump. Hollywood A-lister Harvey Weinstein delivered just that – with his career and life in the eye of the storm this week. By now, Weinstein has been accused of everything from sexual harassment to rape and then decades of coercion and intimidation to hide […]

Liberals who can’t win at the ballot box, turn to lawyers to push their agenda. And guns are no exception. The alt-left has always been the Sue Tribe, they’ve just gotten worse over time. In the aftermath of the horrendous shooting in Las Vegas, the left has turned to an old standby, gun control. Only […]

In the aftermath of the worst mass shooting in American history, the news media turned to wisest among us to seek calm words that would unify a heartbroken nation. Nah. They turned to newly promoted, left-wing hack and occasional funnyman Jimmy Kimmel. Kimmel, you’ll recall, served as the Democratic mouthpiece on ObamaCare recently. So he was all […]

Back in August, I warned that the left was engaging in a cultural revolution similar to the one in China in the 1960s-’70s. Sports fans now know what I mean. The left isn’t at war just with statues. Or just with the Founders or police officers or Trump or even the NFL. The left is trying to […]

The 2017 Super Bowl Part II pits President Trump against the sports elite and most of the media. It might be a fair fight if Trump didn’t have the majority of football fans on his side.   Trump threw the bomb early. He scored on an unprepared defense with harsh comments about NFL protesters, calling […]

Love and hate are often opposite sides of the same obsession. (Movie buffs are picturing the great Robert Mitchum in “Night of The Hunter,” with “hate” and “love” tattooed on opposing hands.) The media are like that. On one hand they hate, despise and loathe President Trump. On the other, they adore his opposition, especially Hillary Clinton. […]

Let’s play the word association game. I’ll say a word and you respond. Me: “White.” You: “Black.” (Older folks like myself will have seen a Chevy Chase/Richard Pryor version of this that would never be on TV today.)   Liberals shouting from far away: “PRIVILEGE!!!” Yes, my how times change. No longer do we accept […]

Yes, that’s an actual quote from an actual headline. The full headline goes like this: “Trump Can’t Tell Women Apart Because He Is Actually a Blind Carnivorous Cave Zombie From The Descent.” So what did our president do to deserve such an obnoxious attack? Did he launch missiles at North Korea? Did he sell his soul […]

“Fashion, turn to the left.” — Fashion, David Bowie The Man Who Fell to Earth wrote that telling line decades ago, but it’s oddly useful today. Fashion has become a tool of the left like every other aspect of pop culture. Often with laughable consequences. That takes us to Jezebel being extra entertaining. Here’s a story headlined: […]

Erick Erickson says, “You will be made to care.” He couldn’t be more accurate. The alt-left has decided to invade every aspect of our lives and wreck them all. It’s the reason why ESPN and moronic outlets from Deadspin to the Baltimore Sun want the Ravens to sign cop-hating quarterback Colin Kaepernick. It’s also the reason why the left is now […]

The first rule of Journalism Fight Club is: Don’t totally embarrass yourself or your employer, especially on TV. Then there’s Jim Acosta. CNN’s White House correspondent doesn’t seem to care about all that stuff. He left journalism and moved into combative, left-wing activism. Only he still claims he’s a reporter. What’s worse is that his […]

Watching news outlets go out of their way to hide a potentially huge Democratic scandal is almost funny. So-called journalists are too busy covering presidential tweets to report on a topic that might embarrass their friends. Welcome to the Imran Awan-Debbie Wasserman Schultz scandal or Compugrab, as I like to call it. Awan was the top […]

Was President Trump’s surprise dinner with Russian President Vladimir Putin “too cozy for comfort?” Only if you work for one of America’s clueless news outlets that forgot both leaders attended a huge dinner together — filled with other world leaders. “Today” show co-host Savannah Guthrie embarrassed herself by declaring: “Let us start with yet another Russia controversy […]

This week the media got the scalp they wanted. Next to President Donald Trump, journalists have been out to get Sean Spicer more than any other member of the administration. Friday, they got their wish. In effect, journalists made an extremely difficult job impossible. Spicer became a favorite media target for either press room theatrics from CNN’s […]

It’s eight months since election day and six since President Trump took office. And the left is still writing stories about how they can’t cope with the results. It’s like a good chunk of the nation has PTSD or just sore-loser disease. The latest comes to us from the nutters at Bustle. That website pretends […]

Identifying the worst of journalism has become a battle of superlatives. One outlet does something barely comprehensible in its stupidity. Rather than learn from it, other news organizations try to outdo them. That was the case this week, where a Washington Post piece blamed a right-wing radio host for the shooting of GOP Rep. Steve Scalise and four […]

Spider-Man, Spider-Man, Does whatever a white guy can Fills a film with diverse guys, Skin so light, it will blind your eyes Oh no! Here comes white Spider-Man. (With apologies to one of my favorite bands, The Ramones, who performed an actual version of the Spider-Mantheme.) One of the hallmarks of the alt-left is that nothing […]

It was a bad week for journalists. Many in the traditional media felt besieged — especially those who work for a place called CNN — targeted for scorn by conservatives and for investigation even by their fellow journalists. 1. This Is CNN: This week was extra special for CNN as the network continued its crusade against […]

If you like your pronouns, you can keep your pronouns. Well, you could. But not any longer. Now, you must use whatever pronoun somebody else wants. We are now all supposed to guess who might want to be thought of as another gender. Or, act like idiots and ask gender pronouns of everyone we meet. […]

Liberals don’t like the founding documents — especially the Constitution. (It’s sooooo old!!!!) It’s not that they don’t like to read. Toss them a page-turner about intersectionality and they are all over it. Stuff the Founding Fathers did, not so much. They don’t like free press, though they claim they do. Remember this every time you see […]

“You never want a serious crisis to go to waste.” Those are the famous words of then-Obama Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel. Coming just a day after an alt-left nutball tried to kill a baseball diamond full of Republicans, it’s worth understanding how liberals see the event. It’s an opportunity. First, like the corrupt New […]

I’ve been getting a lot of “notoriety” for commenting about the extreme left and how it’s seized control from average, everyday nutty libs. Typically, this arrives in the form of hate mail. Most times when you mock the left, paid liberal trolls attack you on Twitter. If your barbs hit close to home, then the […]
