Clinton Backed Katrina Homes Rotting, Falling Apart
Daniel Greenfield
The media is centering this story around Brad Pitt. And Make It Right is his foundation. But the media is neglecting the Clinton angle. Make It Right’s mission was to build 150 well-designed, green, affordable homes in the Lower 9th Ward, the area hardest hit by Katrina. As of 2016, the group reported spending $26.8…

Gov Brown Got Choir Director Pal Six-Figure Gov Job… for the Workers
Daniel Greenfield
Everything that the left does is for the working class. It’s never for themselves. Never, ever, ever. California Gov. Jerry Brown got a long-time a six-figure job at a government agency despite not exactly having the experience for the role, the friend admitted. Juan Pedro Gaffney, a former Bay Area choir director, admitted his friendship…

Why is the Media Taking Compulsive Liar Julia Salazar’s Claims of Israeli Sexual Assault Seriously?
Daniel Greenfield
Julia Salazar lied about being an immigrant, when she was actually born in Miami. She lied about being raised Jewish, when she was baptized and raised in a Christian family. She lied about growing up working class, when she grew up in a mansion. Then there’s the failure of the DSA socialist candidate to graduate…

The “Heterosexual Male Gaze” at a Car Museum
Daniel Greenfield
For my birthday, my wife surprised me with a trip to the Petersen Automotive Museum. There among the DeLorean from Back to the Future, the assorted Model T’s and muscle cars, was a cautionary lecture about lowriders and the heterosexual male gaze. Does a car museum really need gender politics? Must we have assertions of…

#AbolishICE: Illegal Alien Assaults on ICE Personnel Keep Rising
Daniel Greenfield
How much of an influence is the left’s media backed campaign to demonize ICE personnel while treating illegal alien migrants as the latest civil rights cause? And to what extent is the pro-illegal lobby hoping for its own Ferguson Effect by targeting ICE? Assaults on U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents reached a decade high…

Obama Posed With Farrakhan, Accuses Republicans of “Racial Nationalism”
Daniel Greenfield
See if you can spot the Republican racial nationalism in these pictures. This picture of Obama & Farrakhan wouldn’t have made a difference. Journalists largely ignored Obama’s 20 year friendship with racist Wright, who’s said a lot of the same things. It’s more a testament to how lazy/in the tank journalists are that this wasn’t…

Ayanna Pressley and the “Jewish-Homosexual Conspiracy”
Daniel Greenfield
Put this down as more mainstreaming of Farrakhan and the Nation of Islam on the left. Democratic congressional candidate Ayanna Pressley appeared outside a mosque that has played host to numerous radical figures during her primary campaign this year. Dr. Wesley Muhammad gave a lecture at Boston’s Muhammad Mosque No. 11 in February entitled “The…

Obama Claims He Never Tried to Silence Conservative Opponents, He Forgets Operation Rushbo
Daniel Greenfield
Obama’s attack on Trump was filled with lies, omissions and more lies. “It shouldn’t be Democratic or Republican to say that we don’t threaten the freedom of the press because they say things or publish stories we don’t like. I complained plenty about Fox News, but you never heard me threaten to shut them down…

Media Questions Iran’s Claim It Aided 9/11 Hijackers
Daniel Greenfield
At some point the media’s shameless lies, manipulations and chicanery no longer elicit outrage, just contempt. Contempt, is all I can summon for this Reuters headline, “Study questions Iran-al Qaeda ties, despite U.S. allegations”. Before we get to another tedious set of spin and lies, here’s the larger context that sends all of this tumbling…

Wage Growth Highest Since 2009 While Dems Rave
Daniel Greenfield
While the Dems scream about shrinks and throw their ritual Supreme Court nomination tantrum, life keeps getting better for Americans. Long-awaited wage growth posted its biggest increase of the economic recovery in August while payroll gains beat expectations and the unemployment rate held near a generational low of 3.9 percent, according to a Bureau of…
