According to feminist icon Gloria Steinem, America’s best bet for stimulating the economy isn’t tax cuts or trillions of dollars in spending, but equal pay for women. In a Dec. 15 interview with Fusion, Steinem claimed that “Equal pay for women of all races would be the biggest economic stimulus the economy could possibly have.” She specifically said it would be “way better” than the last…

Objective journalism is so old-fashioned. Activism is the new objectivity, at least where the liberal media are concerned. Rather than reporting as neutral outsiders on matters of race, CNN hosts and guest actually put their hands up in the “Hands up, don’t shoot” pose that never happened while reporting on protests. They seize on mass shootings to repeat calls for stricter gun control. The sad…

Environmentalism is a disaster. CBS Evening News reported that Ft. Lauderdale found itself in an ecological disaster after a local government sponsored the dumping of millions of tires in the city’s waters.

View co-host Raven-Symoné took to Twitter last night to blast GOP candidates on foreign policy and, in particular, climate change. The actress and one-time Disney star scolded former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee for saying terrorism is a bigger threat than climate change.

In spite of the fact that Hollywood celebrities live in fancy houses, often use private planes and galavant around the world spewing far more carbon than the Average Joe, many of them love to warn about the threat of climate change. So it was no surprise to see many film and music stars speaking out during the recent U.N. climate summit in Paris (COP21), which was held Nov. 30, through Dec. 12…

In recent weeks, thousands of negotiators from 196 governments met in Paris “for a major conference on climate change” attempting to reach an agreement for every country to lower its greenhouse gas emissions: emissions climate alarmists say will cause catastrophic climate change. That conference, dubbed COP21, began on Nov. 30, and wrapped up with the announcement of a non-binding agreement on…

Legalize drugs to save the planet? As unrelated as those two liberal dreams are, the Soros dynasty just tried to tie them together. On Dec. 14, The Alexander Soros Foundation posted a video in which George Soros’s son whined that, “the war on drugs has had devastating and lasting environmental effects,” and that drug crop eradiation is “just deforestation by another name.”

This week, Naomi Klein admitted that the true climate change agenda is to destroy capitalism and redistribute wealth. On Dec. 10, The Huffington Post published activist Naomi Klein’s speech delivered to the Global Labor Institute event in Paris, on Dec. 7.

Star Wars actor and nature-worshipper Harrison Ford claims that without a Paris agreement, the human race will go extinct.

Want to tell people that they are hurting children around the globe? Use a pop star and a fake newscast to soften up the guilt trip. In a video reminiscent of a bad episode of “Who Wore it Better,” pop superstar Katy Perry channelled her inner Anchorman in a burgundy pantsuit while she “forecasted” the climate threat in a video for UNICEF (United Nations Children’s Fund.)  UNICEF, a…

Climate alarmists have been in Paris warning about the threat of global warming and the need to limit carbon dioxide emissions for the past week now. But climate skeptics are also bringing their own enlightenment to the City of Light. “Are they trying to control the climate … or you?” the new film Climate Hustle asks. That is just one of the questions the film will seek to answer about global…

Brad Pitt doesn’t realize the government is made up of people, not all of them millionaires like him... In a rambling Dec. 2 interview with The Hollywood Reporter, the actor/director with a net worth of $240 million used his upcoming anti-capitalist movie, The Big Short, to lash out at Wall Street.

Biofuels should serve as an instructive lesson for negotiators in Paris, because they are proof that not all energy sources work as well as anticipated. But journalists are unlikely to remind them or the public. The early 2000s were the heyday of good press for biofuels. Major newspapers like The New York Times ran stories about Willie Nelson’s biodiesel startup and individuals converting their…
