All Racism Matters: Sarah Jeong and Condemning “Racism on Both Sides”
Daniel Greenfield
The media is outraged that President Trump condemned “all types of racism”. But that’s exactly what the media won’t condemn. The New York Times’ defense of Sarah Jeong, its new editorial board member, despite her racist comments about white people, is only the latest such incident. Obama and other CBC members got a pass for…

Turkey Hostage Crisis: “They Have the Dollar, We Have Allah”
Daniel Greenfield
The Turkish hostage crisis continues. President Trump is using sanctions and tariffs to pressure the Islamic terror regime in Turkey to release Pastor Brunson and other hostages. These measures have sent Turkey’s scam economy into a tailspin. And its tyrant, Erdogan, is trying to bluster his way through it. President Recep Tayyip Erdogan is wrestling…

Taking Omarosa Seriously Will Backfire on the Media
Daniel Greenfield
First it was Stormy Daniels and her lawyer, who now intends to run for president, now it’s Omarosa. In its desperation to dig up or invent Trump scandals, the media has opened the doors to erratic fringe characters. And when it takes them seriously, it destroys its own credibility. “Hearing it changed everything for me,”…

Top Senate Dem’s Campaign Chief is Islamic Terror State Lobbyist
Daniel Greenfield
This is bad. Really bad. After Iran, Qatar is a top state sponsor of Islamic terror with ties to Al Qaeda and 9⁄11. (And it’s an ally of Iran.) It’s also been very effective at infiltrating our political systems, whether it’s through Al Jazeera or top think tanks. This is far more serious than any…

The Russians control a swing state’s election systems! Except that they don’t.

The Media Touted the Same Demographic Changes Laura Ingraham Mentioned
Daniel Greenfield
The media has dedicated numerous think pieces to the demographic changes that its lefty political faction expects will make white people and Republicans into a permanent minority. These pieces have alternated between the gleeful to the censorious. And then Laura Ingraham mentioned the demographic changes. That was followed by howls of outrage from the left.…

Now Mueller Wants to Classify Part of Manafort Trial
Daniel Greenfield
Mueller’s approach has been to classify everything and then leak selectively. We’ve seen this same tactic being employed by the FBI leadership. This entire investigation has been a series of efforts to keep everything secret while implying the very worst. And now Mueller Inc. would like to extend that to what is supposed to be…

32% of Dems, Majority of Voters, Want Mueller Investigation to End
Daniel Greenfield
While there is a certain segment of the left that obsessively mainlines Mueller conspiracy theories, most voters have come around to the inevitable, “We’re tired of this” position that they usually take when investigations of the president become endless, and yet produce nothing meaningful or tangible. The game plan here was to undermine Trump by…

Trump Wanted Russia Hacking Indictments Before Putin Meet for Leverage
Daniel Greenfield
Remember that time the media melted down? No, that other time. No, no the third most recent time that the media lost its mind and began howling in the streets while tearing its hair out. That’s right. Helsinki. Trump met with Putin. He’s a traitor and a spy who takes orders from Moscow. Why didn’t…

The War on Uber Shows the Left Wants Misery
Daniel Greenfield
The left used to love car-pooling. Forcing multiple people into the same car was good for the environment. Then Uber built a business model around paid car pooling. It reduced the number of people on the road. It was an easy solution to drunk driving. And it allowed people to make money on the side.…
