The government's next mission: Ruining Times Square 5/6/2015 8:31:57 AM Noah Rothman 30 Comments You don't have to live or work in New York City to have an opinion about Times Square.

Video: The last 50 yards 5/5/2015 6:41:38 PM Allahpundit 58 Comments A few days old but worth watching if you haven’t seen it yet. To cleanse the palate, the soldier who’s struggling to walk is Capt.

Question for Josh Earnest: Was it "appropriate" for Americans to hold a Mohammed cartoon contest? 5/5/2015 6:01:31 PM Allahpundit 67 Comments Via Mediaite, you know he’s itching to drop a “hell no” here.

Hillary to call for "full and equal" path to citizenship for illegals today 5/5/2015 2:41:14 PM Allahpundit 93 Comments If she were anyone else, I’d assume it was just a coincidence that she’s rolling out her immigration platform on Cinco de Mayo.

Matthews: Geller set a mousetrap for jihadists, or something 5/5/2015 12:01:35 PM Ed Morrissey 131 Comments This is pretty lame even by MSNBC’s standards, but it’s only a somewhat lamer version of the tongue-clucking that has taken place in much of the media since the shooting in Garland.
