‘Dreaming’ of Amnesty: NYT Warns Trump Off Cruel Plan to Kill DACA
New York Times reporter Julie Hirschfeld Davis filed the paper’s latest passionate defense of an amnesty plan for young (and not-so-young) illegals -- Deferred Action for Child Arrivals, or DACA -- in Saturday’s edition.

Kennedy Worshippers Whip Kim Kardashian for...'Blasphemy'?
Reality TV star Kim Khardashian discovered a new way to draw enough outrage to keep her name in the news.

Kathy Griffin Hasn’t Learned a Thing From Sick Trump Picture
Kathy Griffin is sorry that she’s sorry. And this time she means it. Really. Griffin is on a new media tour. Call it the Anti-Apology Offensive. The comedienne drew flack earlier this year for holding President Trump’s bloody head in the air as part of an edgy photo shoot. The moment took plenty of planning, complete with a wink-wink release of the visual to TMZ.com.
Pundit: Many in Houston Drowned, and Conservatism Is ‘Drowning’
Was Ronald Reagan the original Washington wizard? Esquire’s Charles Pierce seems to think so. Pierce argued on Wednesday that in the 1980s, an ideological “spell…was cast” by the Gipper and his allies, and that as a result of various right-wing policies enacted since then, Harvey-related damage to the Houston area will be a lot worse than it should have been. “The spell…was cast 30 years ago,…
Bozell & Graham Column: Leftist Artists Show Hate for Houston Victims
The nation’s eyes are fixated on dramatic flooding in Houston after Hurricane Harvey, where the death toll (so far) is thankfully small compared to flooding in New Orleans after Hurricane Katrina in 2005. The government response on all levels seems to be fairly effective, and unlike Katrina, the press coverage hasn't been dominated by accusations of racism or inhumanity in the rescue effort.…
AP, NYT Fail to Report Govt.'s 2016 Antifa 'Domestic Terrorist' Tag
Early on Friday, Politico's Josh Meyer reported that the Department of Homeland Security had formally classified the activities of the left-wing and anarchist-driven movement known as "antifa" as "domestic terrorist violence" — in April 2016.

People Claims Black KC Killer Suspect Shot White Victims 'At Random'
Thanks to Hurricane Harvey, the fact that the Fredrick Scott alleged multiple-murder story is not a major national news item yet is to a degree understandable. But there are already signs the the establishment press doesn't want to give this ugly saga the attention it deserves.

Daily Show's Noah Mocks: Antifa Looking More Like 'Vegan ISIS'
Liberal Daily Show host Trevor Noah did what few on the left have done so far, on his August 31 show: He actually condemned the radical leftist antifa group for resorting to violence. While many on the left turn a blind eye at the group’s insistence and justification for their violent tactics, Noah called them out on it: “You don't realize when you think you are punching Nazis, you don't realize…

Haughty Harwood Huffs: Republicans Lack ‘Maturity’ to Govern
According to a snide John Harwood, Republicans lack the “maturity” to govern, handle taxes and raise the debt ceiling. The CNBC editor appeared on MSNBC, Friday, to complain about Trump and the GOP: “This is the kind of thing that ought to be easy but what we've seen in the last few years is that the Republican Party has not shown the maturity to govern effectively in a consistent way.”
