Andrew Yang’s recipe for climate change: Move to the mountains

Another $45 billion for National Labs. Another $200 billion for Grid Modernization. The list goes on. The multi-multi-billion dollar list goes on.

Cory Booker’s transgender ‘nie-phew’ nonsense

Sen. Cory Booker, who still thinks he has a chance to win the White House, despite pulling a dismal 2.2% in a recent RealClearPolitics poll, just called his nephew "nie-phew" so as to not offend the kid, Avery, who identifies as non-binary. Delusion is in Booker's DNA.

Elizabeth Warren a liar in the eyes of most U.S. voters

Most likely voters in America think Sen. Elizabeth Warren, one of the Democrat Party's leading contenders for the White House, lied about her Native American heritage, according to a new poll from Rasmussen Reports. But the rest of the survey adds that for "most," it's not a critical issue when it comes to how they will vote.

Bill de Blasio’s love for illegals put citizens in danger

New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio announced new rules giving the 725,000 or so illegals living in his jurisdiction the right to apply for subsidized and low-cost housing. There's an open door, roll-out-the-mat welcome to illegals for ya. More safety and security for citizens in the city that never sleeps, yes?

Ralph Abraham, Louisiana’s voice of truth: ‘There are only two genders’

Rep. Ralph Abraham, a Republican from Louisiana who is seeking the governor's seat for his state, rocked national headlines by claiming in a 30-second campaign advertisement that "there are only two genders." Remember the days when such a news story would be the stuff and nonsense of The Onion's satirical pages?

San Francisco, where felons are ‘justice-involved’ and there’s no shame in crime

San Francisco's Board of Supervisors just adopted a resolution recommending that felons not be called felons but rather "formerly incarcerated person" or former "justice-involved" person or "returning resident" -- or any other number of soft and fuzzy names that won't hurt the feelings of the, umm, felons. File this under Ridiculous.

Jews really shouldn’t vote Democrat

One of life's greatest questions is if God created all, who created God? And one of life's other greatest questions is, how can Jews vote for Democrats? President Donald Trump put it this way: They're either ignorant or disloyal. And while the media circus performers have been having lots of fun with that one, the fact is, Trump has got a point.

United Nations still ‘disastrous’ after all these years

Ursula Mueller, the leading voice of humanitarian affairs at the United Nations, called for punishments for those found guilty of participating in a widespread abuse of power and sexual misconduct scandal at the global body's Relief and Works Agency for the Palestinian people. But isn't that how it goes. Investigate -- and move on.

Alyssa Milano should be pitied

Alyssa Milano, the teen heartthrob from 1980's-era sitcom hit "Who's the Boss," and subsequent shows, has all grown up and become one of women's world's A-Number-One cheerleading fan of abortion. Times change.

Bernie Sanders Boyz: College kids who love free stuff

Sen. Bernie Sanders has finally found his presidential campaign niche -- college-age kids. You know, the ones who pretend like they're adults because they live away from home, but who call mom every weekend to get their pizza and beer checks. Small wonder the socialist message resonates with them, right?

Israel is not an ‘occupier,’ no matter how many crocodiles cry

Reps. Ilhan Omar and Rashida Tlaib, on the heels of creating a media stir over their denied entry to Israel -- because of their support for the anti-Israeli, BDS movement, that is -- just created a new media stir with a press conference that repeated the content of their first media stir. Cry, cry and the world will cry with you -- is that their hope?

First Russia, now racism

For two years, America heard practically nothing from the mainstream media but Russia collusion, Russia conspiracy, Russia obstruction of justice -- President Donald Trump has stolen the election from Hillary Clinton and now must be impeached. Now, there's a new narrative in town: Racism.

Trump’s assassination all fun and games for the left

An Illinois state senator has apologized for photographs taken during his recent fundraiser that showed his supporters acting out a mock assassination against President Donald Trump. Presidential assassinations -- they're all fun and games, aren't they. So long as they're targeting Republicans, that is.

A.I. unleashed on college kids to determine ‘hate speech’

As if college administrators could be trusted to determine what constitutes hate speech versus what does not -- now comes the university-created artificial intelligence aimed at doing the same. And that's "hate speech" in quotation marks.

One of the two guards pressed into service to guard imprisoned sex offender Jeffrey Epstein during what turned out to be the final moments of his life wasn't actually a regular guard, according to findings reported by The New York Times and The Associated Press. That's news that's worthy of more than a passing glance.

‘Fredo’ as the ‘n-word’ a best-kept secret

If calling an Italian guy a "Fredo" is akin to calling a black dude an n-word, wouldn't everybody know that? Wouldn't media companies the world over insist on journalists writing "Fredo" as "F--o," or subbing in the "FO-word" when used in a quote -- or some other non-offending equivalent?

‘Christians in the Mirror’ a sober, somber reminder of how good Americans have it

In America, religious persecution against Christianity means fighting the ACLU for the right to read a Bible in school. In Iraq, or Sudan, or India, it means fighting to worship Jesus without being beheaded. Or bombed. Or left an orphan. That's the sobering, somber, not-to-subtle head thump of the film "Christians in the Mirror."
