The Russia Conspiracy Turns Anti-Semitic
Daniel Greenfield
Here’s one of the latest conspiracy theory triumphs of the #resistance as it lurches deeper into weird bigotry. Moreover, there are strange Israeli footprints all over the Trump-Russia story. Quite a few of the shady figures close to the president and his business affairs are American Jews of Soviet heritage who possess connections to Israel.…

Orange County Recalls Gas Tax Dem, Ending Dem Supermajority
Daniel Greenfield
It’s been a while since Californians delivered a message like this about tax hikes. But in the age of Jerry Brown, of Dem supermajorities, of runaway spending, it’s a piercingly relevant one. LOS ANGELES (AP) — The Orange County-area state senator who voted to raise gas taxes is out of a job after Tuesday’s primary…

Obama Secretly Tried to Get Banks to Aid Iran, Banks Refused
Daniel Greenfield
International financial institutions get a lot of heat for terror state ties. But this is a case where Obama Inc. tried to get them to do the wrong thing. While they did the right thing.

Obama Gun Control Priest Who Threatened to “Snuff” Pro-Gun Pols in Illegal Gun Mess
Daniel Greenfield
You may remember Father Michael Pfleger from the first Obama election. Back when I first wrote about him in ‘08, I called him the “white Jeremiah Wright” and Obama’s Father Coughlin. It’s a fitting description. You can think of Father Michael Pfleger as the white Reverend Jeremiah Wright. Not only does Father Michael Pfleger have…

Is the Russia Conspiracy Theory About to Morph into an Israeli Conspiracy?
Daniel Greenfield
The Russia conspiracy theory was always an awkward fit. Hillary Clinton had come bearing a Reset Button to Russia. Obama had run on a Russian reset and there he was on a hot mic telling Russia’s Medvedev that he’d have more flexibility to sell out our interests after the election. And the whole Russian hysteria…

Shaun King’s 11 Best Excuses for Not Denouncing Farrakhan
Daniel Greenfield
Angry social justice activist Shaun King has many reasons for not denouncing Louis Farrakhan’s anti-Semitism. Like, Farrakhan’s son just died. Also, I never met him. Almost too many reasons to count. (Aside from the fact that if you’re this white, you need as much cred as you can get.) But here are 11. 1. It’s…

PLO: Iran is Financing the Hamas Violent Riots
Daniel Greenfield
This was already widely presumed to be the case. Hamas is largely funded by Iran and Qatar. (The two terror states are strategic allies.) But Qatar hasn’t directed Hamas’ military operations. Nor is it really in need of a way to strike out at Israel without risking an escalation in Syria or Lebanon that it…

The Left, Islam and Civilization Destroyers (INTERVIEW)

L’Informale very kindly chose to do an interview with me in which I addressed a number of questions. I just want to excerpt a brief portion of that interview to comment on it further. On the 14th of May, the American embassy was moved from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem. At the main time, Hamas, tried…

Melania Trump and the Conspiracy Theories
Daniel Greenfield
The end stage of Conspiracism is when conspiracy theories cease being a means for achieving other goals (let’s impeach Trump because he colluded with Russia and usher in President Hillary Clinton) but when conspiracy theories become their own end even when they have no meaningful purpose. Take the Melania Trump conspiracy theories. It’s not hard…
