Tribeca Gives Anti-Israel Movie ‘Junction 48’ its Second Award
The hip-hop film "Junction 48" represents Israel as a racist and violent state, but that did not stop the Tribeca Film Festival from honoring it. In fact, it probably helped.

WashPost: 'Idiotic' for Tim Robbins to Say Hillary's Stealing Election
Radical-left actor Tim Robbins is channeling the spirit of Gore-Lieberman 2000 and alleging the “election is being stolen” from Democratic presidential candidate Bernie Sanders. There’s a giant conspiracy and the “machines are rigged.”
The big difference this time is the media hate this complaint. “This is a very bad tweet,” lamented Philip Bump at The Washington Post. It's even "idiotic."
Larry Wilmore: 'Which Type of Execution' Should Be Used on Gov Snyder?
Monday was an important date for the people of Flint Michigan. April 25 is the date two years ago when the city’s water source was switched to the Flint River and Comedy Central host Larry Wilmore commemorated the event by using his Nightly Show to imagine the best way to kill the state’s Republican governor: “What do you think should happen to Governor Snyder?” Before the guest could answer,…
Bee: Andrew Jackson Was a ‘Genocidal Prick’ ‘Like Trump'

AP Reporter Outraged by State Dept. Spox's Claim About Troops in Syria
State Department spokesman John Kirby did a fist-pounding imitation of Baghdad Bob at a press conference today on the Obama administration's decision "to send 250 more troops to Syria." Note that the Associated Press report by Kathleen Hennessey linked in the first paragraph refers to "troops," not "advisers" or "trainers." This is important, because that AP report acknowledges that in…
TBS’s ‘The Detour’: Christian Explorers Were Rapists and Murderers
TBS’s new comedy, The Detour, swerved into the Spanish Empire’s colonization of Mexico on Monday night’s episode, titled ‘The Restaurant.’ After much debate, the road-tripping family of modern-day progressives, led by father Nate (Jason Jones) and mother Robin (Natalie Zea), decide to pull over and feast at a culturally insensitive theme restaurant called ‘Conquistadors.’
Even ABC News Laughs at Senator's Embarrassing Intro for Hillary
"She works hard for the money!"
Got that? And if you don't, Senator Tom Carper of Delaware repeats it over and over again in reference to Hillary Clinton who he introducing at a rally.

Van Jones Hilariously Mocks Maher's Dubious Praise for Jimmy Carter
It was almost enough but not quite to elicit a twinge of sympathy for the 39th president of the United States.

Obama Takes Credit For 'Saving World Economy From a Great Depression'
If what Barack Obama contended in London, England on Saturday was obviously true, I suspect that the establishment press would be broadly proclaiming it and looking back at the President's wonderful work.
What Obama is claiming — that his presidency is responsible for "saving the world economy from a Great Depression" — is nonsense, but he's clearly beginning to lobby for it to become the…
