New York Times technology writer Kevin Roose made the front of Saturday’s Business section with “Platforms Denounce Racism That Thrives There.” But Roose’s definition of “racism” seems to mean, “criticizes Black Lives Matter activists.” Roose first made a name for himself at the paper with an elaborate, panicky Sunday front-page expose, “The Making of a YouTube Radical – How the Site’…

The media continue to take the knee to Black Lives Matter. USA Today pushed a leftist event calling for people to boycott companies that don’t support the movement.

“Boy, look at all those Jacobin BLM kids out there hating on cops, tearing down statues, getting people fired, canceling everything they can think of -- sure looks like fun. How can I, a simple Chicago Tribune editorial board member, get in on some of that? I know! I’ll connect a baseball team to a law enforcement organization that may have been racist in the past! You’re a genius, Steve…

Wednesday’s New York Times featured another labored attack on President Trump by White House correspondent Peter Baker. In a half-page “White House Memo,” Baker accused Trump of hypocrisy in “The ‘Law and Order’ President, but Not Close to Home.” He laundered the left-wing talking point that Trump doesn’t support all law enforcement, such as the intelligence services that went after…

Liberal billionaire George Soros is pouring it on in a multimillion-dollar effort to help Democrats turn out their voters in the 2020 election. The Associated Press reported that “A network of deep-pocketed progressive donors is launching a $59 million effort to encourage people of color to vote by mail in November.”

Chick-fil-A CEO Dan Cathy has surveyed the damage done by Black Lives Matter-inspired riots over the past couple weeks and has surmised that the solution to the violence is white Christians repenting of their racism.

From early March to late May, the coronavirus pandemic eclipsed all other news stories, consuming nearly all of the airtime on the Big Three (ABC, CBS and NBC) evening newscasts. But those same networks put the virus story on the back burner for two weeks while they diverted nearly all of their coverage to nationwide protests against police brutality.

Amidst what was sadly a White House Press Briefing marred by a litany of audio problems (which the White House later cleans up), the shameless liberal press corps turned in an embarrassing performance while Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany schooled them on their double standard in coronavirus concerns about Saturday’s Trump rally versus Black Lives Matter protests.

It is a gift, as Robert Burns wrote, to see ourselves as others see us. One of those “others” is Caroline Glick, who writes on her webpage from Israel: “Americans are now expected to kneel for the Star Spangled Banner and disavow American history while swallowing whole a false, malicious new history that claims America has been a force for evil at home and worldwide since it was nothing more…

The left’s fit of insensate rage keeps turning this way and that, smashing whatever comes to hand -- a statue here, a corporate exec there. Professional sports have been thoroughly politicized, and now the destruction is coming to big-time college football. Because somebody doesn’t like a T-shirt.

Liberal feminist Roxane Gay has a new gig at the New York Times as the paper’s “Work Friend” work-advice columnist, and she used a fascinating query to launch her latest column, “Taking a Stand Against an Employer.” Twist: That "employer" happens to be the New York Times itself. An (anonymous) employee of the paper was appalled by the paper’s publication of an op-ed by…

On Monday, CNN Newsroom produced a segment that ran afoul of approved pro-abortion talking points and phraseology. They actually called an unborn baby an “unborn baby” – not using a euphemism like “just a clump of cells” or even a fetus. But it’s ok, it was in service to the “Black Lives Matter” cause.

Not one to leave all the activism to rioters vandalizing statues, Big Tech appears to be joining the removal of western icons. “Images of Winston Churchill failed to appear Sunday during Google searches for the former British prime minister—but the tech giant says it was not on purpose,” Fox News summarized in a June 14 article. This comes after multiple riots had broken out in countries…

Leftist publication The Nation doesn’t shy away from advocating for a violent idea that sounds like it would come straight from the revolutionary insanity of Karl Marx’s Communist Manifesto.
