Israel’s Lesson for 2024: A Liberal Crackup

October 26th, 2023 6:02 PM

Conventional wisdom says voters don’t care about foreign policy. Nearly two years into Europe’s largest conflict since World War II, the conventional wisdom seemed to be right.

But the butchery Hamas perpetrated against Israeli…

October 15th, 2023 10:08 AM

It’s obvious that Jake Tapper doesn’t understand how war works. Nor does he understand the difference between a nation defending itself and a nation committing war crimes.

October 4th, 2023 10:49 AM

On Tuesday afternoon, the Fox News Channel’s Peter Doocy wasn’t having it as the ever-inept White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre reverted back to a years-long, cartoonish, pants-on-fire fable that Republicans are the true anti-cops, defund-the-police party in light of Monday night’s carjacking of Congressman Henry Cuellar (D-TX) in the Navy Yard section of Washington D.C.
