This week, MSNBC dubbed him a “policing reform organizer.” Sean Hannity titled him a “professional protestor.” Kevin Jackson called him a “race pimp.” We’re talking about DeRay McKesson – a black activist who has taken Twitter by storm, railing against the racism he believes plagues American police forces.

Even Andrea Mitchell Thinks NYT Went Too Far on Rubio

One clue that the New York Times might have gone too far by publishing aggressive hit pieces on Marco Rubio: Even Andrea Mitchell thinks the liberal paper made a mistake.

'80s Pop Star: 'Obama Seems to Be White Inside'

Eighties pop star Morrissey -- lead singer of the Smiths, a major indie sensation -- has been a wildly erratic pundit in his advanced age. Last year, he declared “I see no difference between eating animals and pedophilia. They are both rape, violence, murder.”  Now he’s declared that “Obama seems to be white inside.” He never supports the “innocent black people who are murdered by white police…

US Government Gives $82.7 Million to Liberal Tides Organizations

For all the fuss the left makes about “getting money out of politics,” their actions tell a vastly different story. When conservative donors make or facilitate anonymous donations, liberals cry “dark money” and bemoan the supposed lack of accountability. If liberals truly wanted to get money out of politics, they would need to start with their own Tides organizations, which pioneered the very…

Diane Rehm Assumes Sanders Has Dual Citizenship — Based on Facebook

Among the many tired, bogus complaints heard from the establishment press is the one about how careful they are compared to the reckless knaves in the blogosphere and New Media. You see, they only use reliable sources, while bloggers will believe anything anyone writes or posts on the Internet. Well, I suspect there are very few people in the blogosphere dumb enough to rely on a Facebook comment…
