Marie Harf: My comment about ISIS needing jobs was 'too nuanced' for you boors 2/18/2015 10:01:05 AM Noah Rothman 58 Comments This is precisely how any organization would hope their spokesperson might respond when entangled in a controversy of their own making: Doubling down and petulantly insisting that your many critics are idiots. On Monday, Harf was the subject of criticism More... Walker: Those elite snobs seem a little nervous about me, huh? 2/18/2015 9:31:03 AM Ed Morrissey 43 Comments They certainly do, if the deep dive into Scott Walker’s thirty-year-old academic record is any indication.

Video: Kurds repel major ISIS assault near Irbil 2/18/2015 8:31:27 AM Ed Morrissey 29 Comments Have US and coalition airstrikes stopped the growth of ISIS? They don’t appear to think so.

Of course: Police tell smiling kids to go home because sledding on Capitol Hill is outlawed 2/17/2015 9:41:25 PM Mary Katharine Ham 44 Comments It is perhaps the most parodically kill-joy practice of nanny-state American city officals of late, banning sledding on any public property to cover their legal derrieres lest someone bust their literal derriere on a hill that is supposed to be owned by More... Video: 10 hours of a Jewish man walking in Paris 2/17/2015 8:41:42 PM Mary Katharine Ham 67 Comments Just like Joe Biden’s wandering hands, this is certainly nothing worthy of the attention of, say, #manspreading or catcalling.

Take David Axelrod's word for it: Obama's White House remains untouched by any 'major scandals' 2/17/2015 8:01:10 PM Noah Rothman 39 Comments Both President Barack Obama and the administration he leads are ethical paragons.

Ethics: De Blasio's ID program for illegal immigrants has self-destruct option if GOP wins in 2016 2/17/2015 7:21:23 PM Noah Rothman 53 Comments This is not how republican democracy is designed to operate.

Update: Not in 2016, Huntsman says 2/17/2015 5:21:40 PM Ed Morrissey 26 Comments At this point, we don’teven know if Jon Huntsman is ready for Senator Jon Huntsman.

Eric Holder: "We're not at a time of war" 2/17/2015 4:08:52 PM Allahpundit 109 Comments Didn’t his boss just send a very open-ended war authorization request to Congress last week? Did I dream that?

DHS Secretary: Yeah, we have to put off our executive amnesty for now 2/17/2015 2:01:23 PM Ed Morrissey 57 Comments Looks like DHS will be a little less busy than planned tomorrow after all.

Minnesota, Detroit newspapers not exactly enamored of Obama's BuzzFeed moment 2/17/2015 1:21:20 PM Ed Morrissey 91 Comments And that’s putting it mildly — unlike the reaction from St. Paul Pioneer Press sportswriter Kevin Cusick. He put together a slideshow of images from Barack Obama’s BuzzFeed photo shoot for the Pioneer Press website, with one caption More... Time for Joe Biden to creep on another woman 2/17/2015 12:41:51 PM Allahpundit 169 Comments The victim this time is Stephanie Carter, wife of incoming defense secretary Ashton Carter, seen here holding forth on ISIS while his better half suffers the ritual indignity of the vice presidential droit de seigneur at swearings-in.
