Pride Flags, Yes, American Flags, No in Spiderman Game
Daniel Greenfield
I remember the controversy over dropping Truth, Justice and the American Way. But that was just the beginning. This story involves Spider Man: Remastered, a game for Sony video game consoles that recently came to the personal computer. PCs have a vibrant modding community, much of which is based around a site known as ‘Nexus’.…

NY Gov Hochul Won’t Lock Up Criminals, Will Ban Toy Guns
Daniel Greenfield
Toy guns don’t kill people, violent criminals who aren’t locked up kill people. But New York’s Governor Hochul has made it clear that, along with legislative majority leaders in the failed state, criminals will remain free to roam the streets even after they’ve been arrested with no bail and nothing resembling security for crime victims.…

This Version of Anne Frank’s Diary Should Be Removed From Libraries
Daniel Greenfield
Here’s the JTA very deliberately pushing its political agenda of getting sexualized books to kids. A school district in suburban Fort Worth, Texas, has ordered its librarians to remove an illustrated adaptation of “The Diary of Anne Frank” from their shelves and digital libraries, along with the Bible and dozens of other books that were challenged…

Abbas’ Holocaust Denial Tour Hits Germany
Daniel Greenfield
The engine of Holocaust denial is a desire to kill Jews. Otherwise why bother? There’s a fringe of conspirazoids, the sorts of people who believe that the moon landing was faked, that UFOs can be found in your backyard, and that 9/11 was carried out by the NYPD, and that Bigfoot killed JFK who are attracted…

Did FBI Raid Seek “Exonerating” Russiagate Materials?
Daniel Greenfield
There’s a major asterisk next to this one because William Arkin had formerly claimed at Newsweek that his sources told him AG Garland hadn’t approved the Mar-a-Lago raid. And plenty of people got burned by that. This story claims that the FBI raid targeted specific documents. “The FBI raid on Mar-a-Lago last Monday was specifically intended to…

Why Did the Feds Take Trump’s Passports?
Daniel Greenfield
As The Point previously discussed, the warrant they bore allowed them to pretty much take everything, giving them the right to search most of Mar-a-Lago and to take anything potentially classified, anything near anything classified, and anything potentially covered under the presidential records act. That’s the definition of a fishing expedition. Now a few of…

AG Garland Admits FBI Raid Wasn’t About “Retrieving Documents” for the Archives
Daniel Greenfield
The original story told through the media was that the FBI raid was about retrieving documents that the National Archives wanted in its custody. As I wrote at the time, that wasn’t the reason, that was the pretext. And AG Garland is admitting as much by trying to keep the affidavit classified after agreeing to declassify…

A Raid on a Political Opponent is Political Until Proven Otherwise
Daniel Greenfield
After the Mar-a-Lago raid, the same familiar voices are once again insisting that we ought to give the DOJ the benefit of the doubt. That’s Un-American. (These same folks don’t think the police officers in the George Floyd drug overdose case or the Breonna Taylor case, currently being lynched by Biden’s racist DOJ deserve that.)…

Starbucks Accuses Biden Admin of Corrupting Mail-In Union Election
Daniel Greenfield
I’ll skip over the schadenfreude over an ultra-woke company realizing that the leftists it supports won’t just be satisfied with voluntary contributions to their cause, but want to take the whole company. Starbucks, like a number of companies, is fighting corrupt unionization efforts being run from inside the federal government. And its complaint is revealing…

Rushdie Stabber’s Mom Says Islam Changed Him
Daniel Greenfield
A familiar story from previous Islamic terrorist attacks. Silvana Fardos, the mother of suspect Hadi Matar, 24, added to the Daily Mail on Sunday that she is disowning her son over his alleged crime and hopes Rushdie gets well. The mom said she was born Muslim but is not religious. She said she hadn’t even heard of Rushdie until after the…
