Ken Berwitz THE TRUMP BUMP If Donald Trump is half as lucky in business as he is politically, there is little wonder that he\’s a multi-billionaire. Just days ago Trump makes a bizarre speech in Fort Dodge, Iowa, in which he says, among other things, that we should “bomb the shit” out of ISIS. And then, days later, ISIS conducts a horrific attack in Paris, leaving...
Ken Berwitz Today\’s quote comes to us from Trey Gowdy who, in addition to chairing the House Oversight Committee,is a member of the House Judiciary Committee. While meeting with members of Judiciary, Mr. Gowdy had this to say about President Obama\’s insulting comment that Republicans don\’t want Syrian refugees brought to the USA because they are “afraid of widows...

Ken Berwitz French authorities are reporting that abdelhamid abaaoud, “mastermind” of the terrorist murders in Paris last week is dead. The police found and killed him in the St. Denis area north of Paris. May he Rot In Hell…..along with the rest of his subhuman pals. And, on an entirely separate note, may French President Francois Hollande never brag...
Ken Berwitz What is the solution to the terrorist threat? In the “mind” of Rep. Jan Schakowsky (D-IL), the answer is more domestic gun control laws. I kid you not, she really said that. Listen to this video and hear for yourself. I would like to thank Ms. Schakowsky for her wise counsel. After all, the terrorists who killed 130 or so people and injured hundreds of...
Ken Berwitz As pointed out in a previous blog, the percentage of male “refugees” (economic immigrants is more like it) leaving Syria for Europe is double their incidence in the Syrian population. How do you figure the women they are leaving behind feel about this? Well, not too kindly, based on the following excerpts from Sara Malm\’s article in London\’s Daily...
Ken Berwitz Don\’t expect too many blogs like this one. I am writing to defend Secretary Of State John Kerry, for the comment he made comparing January\’s terrorist attacks on the staff of French magazine Charlie Hebdo among other targets, and last week\’s terrorist attacks at the Bataclan theater – also among other targets. Here is what Mr. Kerry...
Ken Berwitz If you told me that Barack Obama was thin-skinned, I would not give you any argument. But if you told me he was more thin-skinned than Hillary Clinton (obviously this is an attitudinal reference), I might. Excerpted from article at judicialwatch.org: In what appears to be a first for a serious presidential contender, Hillary Clinton\’s campaign is going after five comedians...
Ken Berwitz Today\’s quote comes to us from Tom Ridge, former Governor of Pennsylvania and our first Homeland Security Secretary. Mr. Ridge was interviewed by Matt Lauer on this morning\’s Today show and he did not mince words in his disdain for the rudderless “leadership” of the man we twice elected as our commander in chief: “Well, we know they\’re not a...
Ken Berwitz I just read the transcript of CBS Anchor Scott Pelley\’s sit-down with Secretary Of State John Kerry – when he told us that the Obama administration\’s basic strategy to fight Daesh is working. (NOTE: “Daesh” is the Arabic word to describe ISIS. Why is he using it, other than to demonstrate that he has a higher level of erudition than we...
Ken Berwitz Here is the text of a letter Phil Hanlon, President of Dartmouth, which was sent to alumni this week: Dear [First Name], I understand you\’re concerned about the Black Lives Matterprotest on campus last week. In response to the vandalization of a Black Lives Matter artinstallation in Collis Center, Dartmouth students organized a large, peacefulmeeting on November 12th in...
Ken Berwitz Maybe they just left out two letters. Maybe they meant the UNaffordable Care Act. Excerpted from Robert Pear\’s article in – so help me, the November 14th New York Times (the bold print is mine): Obamaadministration officials, urging people to sign up for health insurance under the AffordableCare Act, have trumpeted the low premiums available on the...
Ken Berwitz A quick question: Hillary Clinton has called for the United States to take in 65,000 Syrian “refugees”. Now that we know (via the UN) that a dramatically disproportionate percent of the “refugees” are men – double their incidence in the Syrian population – and that, based on looking at the video footage, most of them appear to be of...
Ken Berwitz Today\’s quote comes to us from Ted Cruz. I doubt you\’ll need me to tell you why he is today\’s winner: If you want to know why everyone finds lefty journalists soridiculous, take a look at this particularly silly Politifact. I said “theDemocratic Party keeps getting smaller and smaller.” Looking tothe actual numbers, Politifact is forced...
Ken Berwitz On September 29th, 2014, Benjamin Netanyahu spoke before the United Nations. His subject was international terrorism. You can read the excerpts below, and marvel at how prescient Mr. Netanyahu was and how well the world – especially France – would have been served if it had listened to and heeded his words… Ladies and Gentlemen, Thepeople of Israel...
