With a nod to Farnoush Amiri’s article at Hollywood Reporter… …here are a few pissy pithy quotes from Hasan Minhaj, who – of all people who could have been selected – was the choice to MC last night’s White House Correspondents’ Dinner: “Welcome to the series finale of the White House Correspondents’ Dinner,” he began. “My name...

It is hardly a news flash to mention that CNN and its people are not BFFs with President Trump. But this? Wow. From Curtis Houck’s remarkable summary at newsbusters.org, we find out that Mr. Trump’s rally in Pennsylvania, which he attended rather than the White House Trump-haters’ Correspondents’ Dinner was: “deeply disturbing” and “stunning” speech by a “moral...
Does the title of this blog seem a bit ridiculous to you? Maybe a lot ridiculous? Well, believe it or not, Nicole Belle, a regular contributor at the hard-left website crooksandliars.com, believes it is. Along with CNN. This, so help me, is pulled straight from her latest commentary: Just when you think there’s a chance that we’d have a media outlet that isn’t constantly...
Matthew Continetti’s commentary is a lot longer than three paragraphs. But if ever three paragraphs nailed the problem with today’s Democrat Party, these are the ones. Here, let me show you (the bold print is mine): Democrats feel betrayed. The Electoral College betrayed them by making Trump president. Hillary Clinton betrayed them by running an uninspiring campaign. James Comey...
Are you, like me, still wondering how some people would be gullible enough to blame Republicans for the water contamination in Flint, Michigan – a city run virtually in its entirety by Democrats for decades, whose city council voted 7-1 to “save money” by changing its water source to what supposedly caused the problem? Well, keep reading. Here are excerpts from Chris...
Today’s quote comes to us from President Trump. And it is remarkable – not just for its content, but for the fact that it was made in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. At a huge rally, far from the White House Correspondents’ Dinner in Washington, which every President has attended for the last 36 consecutive years. Until this year. So what did Mr. Trump tell the crowd? Here, with...
As I am wont to do (and as I want to do), I am posting a small sampling of “The Week In Pictures”, posted by powerlineblog.com’s Steven Hayward which a) I very much hope you enjoy and b) I very much hope results in your clicking on this link to see the rest. Here they are:
Dear illegal immigrant: feel free to steal goods and services to your hearts’ content. You will not be charged with a crime. The reason? Because the federal government expects us to obey the law and we would rather give you a free pass on those, and any other non-violent crimes, than to do so. Does the above paragraph make sense to you? I’m assuming the answer is...
There are very few people I have met in my life who are truly free of racial prejudice. This includes a good many who seem to believe they are, but whose actions and words (sometimes under cover of “humor”) tell a very different story. One of those very few is sportswriter and best-selling author, Jeff Pearlman. I have known Jeff for about 15 years. I know who he is, what he says...
Here is the first part of Paul Mirengoff’s article, at powerlineblog.com, about how Jews are being systematically shut out of votes on boycotting/divesting/sanctioning Israel. Read on, if you can stomach it: Anti-Israel groups on college campuses have come up with a new tactic in their effort to pass BDS (Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions) resolutions. They are manipulating the voting to...
kim jung-un, the deranged little twerp who is running North Korea launched another missile yesterday – one which, reports indicate, may have been capable of delivering a nuclear payload if it worked. It didn’t work. The missile crashed into the sea moments after being launched. But that doesn’t mean the next one won’t be successful, it doesn’t mean the next one...
Most people, certainly among those of us who are interested in politics, know who Steve Bannon is. Democrats and their media lapdogs our neutral mainstream media have told us endlessly that he is a nazi-esque anti-Semite. The basis for this “knowledge” – other than a single comment about “whiny Jewish kids” he is alleged to have made by his former wife during an...
Apropos of nothing political… Nothing says “we’re for real” more than a major league baseball team playing the league leader, falling behind 9-1 in the 6th inning, then 11 – 4 in the seventh…and winning the game 14-11 in the 10th. The Yankees – the younger, more dynamic, invigorated Yankees – are worth watching again. OK, back to politics, where...
Earlier this month, I blogged about the Democratic National Committee (DNC) chair, Tom Perez, attacking Republicans using vulgar language – not in private, but at a podium into a mic. Among his pleasantries: -Speaking of proposed changes in ObamaCare: “Those Republican leaders and President Trump don’t give a shit about the people they were trying to hurt” -Speaking of the budget:...
CNN, the New York Times, and other happy-as-clam media, told us that Ivanka Trump was “booed and hissed” by the crowd when she appeared in Germany with Chancellor Angela Merkel This report, from the German newspaper Bild and excerpted from Peter Hasson’s article at dailycaller.com, tells a very different story: “Many people were surprised by Ivanka Trump’s performance in...
