NPR Got Paid $100K to Push Iran Deal
Daniel Greenfield
NPR. It’s like Pravda with better office furniture. A group the White House recently identified as a key surrogate in selling the Iran nuclear deal gave National Public Radio $100,000 last year to help it report on the pact and related issues, according to the group’s annual report. It also funded reporters and partnerships with […]

Hillary Clinton Unnerved Rape Victim by Laughing About Her Rape
Daniel Greenfield
The paper of progressive record has some breaking news out. “Donald Trump has repeatedly unnerved women in private encounters over 40 years. Here are their stories.” I’m not sure anything from 40 years ago counts as breaking news. But it’s a step up from Mitt Romney’s haircut. Meanwhile the New York Times won’t cover the […]

Bernie Sanders is a Ridiculous, Dishonest Flip-Flopper
Daniel Greenfield
In the Democratic race, gun control was always Bernie Sanders’ greatest weakness. After all he was in Vermont politics, a state that he is fond of pointing out is rural and lacks the rabid anti-gun culture of New York City. And he had benefited from NRA interference targeting a pro-gun control Republican. And so Hillary […]

Bernie Sanders Has No Idea What Israel Being “Disproportionate” Even Means
Daniel Greenfield
Bernie Sanders is running for president as the most anti-Israel Democrat since Jesse Jackson. Whom he backed despite his anti-Semitic slurs. So when Sanders accuses Israel of “Disproportionate” attacks on Hamas in Gaza, media outlets rushed out pieces claiming that he was right. He repeated those claims at the debate. There’s just one tiny little […]

Bernie Sanders Responds to Anti-Semitic Rant by Disavowing Zionism
Daniel Greenfield
This is really pathetic. It’s not just the words, but the context that matters. A Harlem man demanded Sen. Bernie Sanders explain his relationship “with your Jewish community” at an event at the iconic Apollo Theater today. “You went to Israel for a year. As you know, Zionist Jews—I don’t mean to offend anybody—they running […]

Boss of Anti-Semitic Gawker Site Uses Holocaust to Justify Posting Hulk Hogan Sex Tape
Daniel Greenfield
Somewhere underneath the street is a sewer. Beneath that sewer is another even worse sewer. Below that sewer is an accumulated pool of toxic waste and the corpses of dead mobsters. Under that is hell. Below it is a Chipolte factory. Slightly below it is the oozing mass of slime that is Gawker. Hulk Hogan […]

If Not Now, J Street’s Latest Anti-Israel Front Group
Daniel Greenfield
Despite the backing of major anti-Israel billionaires, J Street has failed to make an impact on support for Israel in the Jewish community. That failure has led the anti-Israel hate group to take another tack by using its campus arm, J Street U, currently run by an anti-Israel Muslim student, to manufacture the perception that […]

Bernie Sanders Kibbutz Admired Communism, Flew Red Flag
Daniel Greenfield
My piece last week on the Kibbutz where Bernie Sanders stayed went viral and led to an awkward semi-attack from The Forward (later reprinted in Haaretz). I pointed out certain obvious facts. Kibbutz Sha’ar Ha’amakim had been co-founded by Aharon Cohen, the Arabist, who was a regular critic of Israel and opponent of its policy. […]

Bernie Sanders Before Yom Kippur War: “No Guns for Israel”
Daniel Greenfield
These days, Bernie Sanders is being accused of not being anti-gun enough by Hillary Clinton. But in 1971, he had a pretty firm position on guns. For the Jewish State. Sanders said in 1971 at a campaign stop in a synagogue that he supported “no guns for Israel,” according to Diamondstone’s account. His flip-flop on […]
