In the aftermath of “from the river to the sea” anti-Israel protests on many college campuses and in the streets comes a perfectly timed book by Johns Hopkins University Professor Benjamin Ginsberg titled “The New American Anti-Semitism: The Left, The Right, and the Jews.” Professor Ginsberg is especially hard on progressives and urges American Jews to move away from their longtime support of…

On Friday's CNN NewsNight, host Abby Phillip gave a forum to far-left film maker Michael Moore to comment on the presidential race, leading him to accuse the Israel of committing "genocide" in Gaza, preposterously alleging that the Palestinians are being killed because of the "color of their skin."

Universities are not alone among our institutions that have lost their way. How about America’s corporations, which now seem to think social justice is their job, beside efficiently delivering goods and services to the American public? In a recent panel discussion at the Bipartisan Policy Institute, Jamie Dimon, chairman and CEO of JPMorgan, the nation’s largest bank, rang the alarm about the…

“How small, of all that human hearts endure / That part which laws or kings can cause or cure.” Oliver Goldsmith’s lines — written 260 years ago, with help from his friend Samuel Johnson — are worth remembering in an election year. But it’s tough. Congress and the White House are both up for grabs this November. An already single-digit Republican majority in the House of Representatives…

Morning Joe mocks Speaker Mike Johnson for partially blaming the Republican loss in the NY-3rd special election on an Election Day snowstorm. But the show ignored the fact that Democrats enjoyed a major advantage over Republicans in early voting and mail-in voting, and thus were not as affected for same day voting by the snowstorm.

NBC’s Seth Meyers lamented on the Wednesday edition of Late Night that the Democratic Party is not further to the left on immigration, as he demanded the party stop “parroting GOP talking points” on the issue.

25 years ago, the U.S. Senate voted to acquit President Bill Clinton at his impeachment trial. At the time, journalists sneered that the trial of was a pointless waste of the Senate’s valuable time, while viewers heard it was an attempted “coup,” something “Stalinist” that evoked memories of Nazi Germany. Republicans were like KKK “night riders,” motivated by racism in their vendetta against a…

The number of President Biden’s gaffes and flip-flops on issues would fill a book, but he combined several categories of verbal meanderings at last week’s National Prayer Breakfast. The gathering took place in the Capitol’s National Statuary Hall. Biden pronounced it “statutory hall.” He must have had son Hunter’s legal problems and the possibility of his own impeachment in mind. The annual…

Bill Maher has a new fan base after decades in show business.

Three days after screaming at her fellow ABC co-hosts to shut up and get behind President Joe Biden because he’s “the candidate” for Democrats, staunchly racist and anti-Semitic co-host Sunny Hostin (the descendant of slave owners) was so disturbed by the special counsel’s report about Biden’s failing mental faculties that she hatched a plot to have Democrats ditch him at the convention and…

Argentina actually elected a libertarian president. Javier Milei campaigned with a chainsaw, promising to cut the size of government. Argentina’s leftists had so clogged the country’s economic arteries with regulations that what once was one of the world’s richest countries is now one of the poorest. Inflation is more than 200%.
