This isn’t throwing rocks when you live in a glass house. It’s running around with a flamethrower while living in a gas station. Here’s a little flashback of Think Progress’ little anti-Semitism problem. In the e-mail that the Post obtained exclusively from the CAP account of Faiz Shakir, who serves as editor-in-chief of the ThinkProgress.org…

I agree. Sotomayor and Kagan have a lot of hard work to do. Obama-era Attorney General Eric Holder reacted to the confirmation of Judge Brett Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court Saturday by questioning the legitimacy of the court and arguing that it needed to regain the nation’s trust. Holder should consult with the ghost of…

The media’s angle for attacking Melania Trump invariably involves overthinking her fashion choices. But here’s the perfect fusion of lefty race-crybullying and fashion obsession, courtesy of CNN, the news network of America’s airports. Melania Trump’s latest white hat evokes colonialist comparison – CNN But when she moved on to her next activity, a guided safari…

Some call the MacArthur Grants, the genius awards. But a quick look at the recipients quickly makes a mockery of that. Rev. William Barber is the figure on the latest list of recipients making the most headlines. Some media types are breathlessly and shamelessly comparing him to MLK.

Does Moscow have any of the tapes of Kavanaugh’s mass rapes? Mueller must investigate, after indicting Mark Judge on a dozen…

The Steele dossier, the subsequent eavesdropping, wiretapping, Mueller raids and the rest of the horror show reveal the depth of corruption in Washington D.C. and the big blue capitals, the intersections of the media, unelected government officials, politicians and the various middlemen who form the great swamp above the Potomac. And here we are. As…

John Lithgow has played plenty of creeps. So he’s a natural as Bill. And Laurie Metcalf can certainly be annoying. But that doesn’t really explain why this is a thing. Or why it exists. Laurie Metcalf and John Lithgow, both two-time Tony Award winners, will team up on Broadway to play the power couple who…

Remember all those things that lefty economists insisted were impossible 3 years ago? They want voters to pay attention to anything and everything except those numbers. The number of Americans filing for unemployment benefits fell to a near 49-year low last week, pointing to sustained labor market strength, which should continue to underpin economic growth.…
