Former Head Of DIA Claims Team Obama Ignorned Rise Of ISIS Intelligence

Why would they do that? Politics. Listening might have caused issues with Obama’s re-election (CNN) President Barack Obama’s former top military intelligence official said Tuesday that the White House ignored reports prefacing the rise of ISIS in 2011 and 2012 because they did not fit their re-election “narrative.” “I think that they did not meet […]

Deadly D.C.: The Land of No Consequences

In life and leadership, accountability means consequences for bad behavior. In Washington, accountability means yet another congressional meeting about another government scandal perpetrated by tax-subsidized corruptocrats who get away with murder. Literally. This week, the House Committee on Veterans’ Affairs will hold the 999,999th oversight hearing (give or take a few) on the VA’s homicidal, […]

The Smear

This week my TV show is on gun control. I interviewed activist Leah Barrett, who wants stricter gun laws. I pointed out that after most states loosened gun laws to let people carry guns, 29 peer-reviewed studies examined the effect. Eighteen found less crime, 10 found no difference and only one found an increase. “Which studies?” […]

Can We Learn From Europe?

Earlier this year, my column asked, “Will the West Defend Itself?” I pointed out that America’s leftists and progressives believe that the U.S. should become more like Europe (http://tinyurl.com/nfk2c4d). I wonder whether they also want to import European policies that created barbaric extremism among its Muslim population. France’s recent tragedy is not surprising, given some […]

Why Obama Spared ISIS Oil

Last week, on the Charlie Rose show, former Obama CIA Director Mike Morell dropped a bombshell that was little noticed by the media. He said that it seemed the reason President Obama did not bomb the oil fields now controlled by ISIS in Iraq and Syria was that he did not want to cause environmental […]

President Obama’s Imaginary World

President Obama lives in a world all his own. It’s a world in which he’s widely beloved but also misunderstood, a world in which everyone is racist except for those who support him, a world in which his foreign policy has been heroically successful and his domestic policy even more so. President Obama lives in […]

Where Are the Sanctuaries for Newborns?

The newborn boy abandoned in a nativity display at a New York City church last week lucked out. His mother bought towels at a 99 Cents Only Store to keep him warm, and then left him in the manger to be found. But many abandoned babies aren’t so lucky. Every year, hundreds are dumped in […]

Climate change conference sweeps terrorism problem under the rug

PARIS — At the opening of the Paris climate change conference (also known as COP21) this week, U.S. President Barack Obama amalgamated terrorism and climate change. “We salute the people of Paris for insisting this crucial conference go on — an act of defiance that proves nothing will deter us from building the future we […]

One Way or Another – We Are The Cause of Terrorism

Western Leftists are really struggling to explain the rise of ISIS, the resurgence of al-Qaeda and radical Islamic terrorism in general. Liberals desperately grasp at anything they can point to as the cause(s) for terrorism – because it just has to be our fault. Somehow we brought this upon ourselves.   Bernie Sanders, the Vermont […]

Turtles Saved From Sudden Death Thanks To New Train Lanes

Though there have been tremendous leaps in technology, trains still possess an Achilles Heel: they rely on unobstructed tracks. As slow-moving turtles have caused a number of problems with trains in Japan, Japanese engineers have developed special tracks for turtles to cross the tracks– a blessing for both the turtles and train passengers. Despite what […]
