| Report: ISIS chief wounded in air attack 1/20/2015 10:01:12 AM Ed Morrissey 22 Comments It’s not the first time we’ve heard this, so treat this report from Iraq with a healthy dose of skepticism.

MSNBC about to give Bobby Jindal the Herman Cain treatment 1/20/2015 9:21:11 AM Noah Rothman 54 Comments If you followed the toxic enthusiasm MSNBC hosts and guests displayed for hurling accusations of racism or racial insensitivity toward Republicans in 2012, then a recent segment on that cable news network involving comments made by Bobby Jindal should More...

"This cartoon is not just a little figure," Gérard More... Finally: We have another run-of-the-mill Obama speechwriter to deify 1/19/2015 8:01:14 PM Mary Katharine Ham 49 Comments It’s nice to see that in the Obama White House, they spread the spirit of delusional self-regard around instead of just focusing it on the president. He certainly produces enough of it to share, and now his speechwriter is the recipient, in the More... Sure sounds like Ted Cruz is running for president 1/19/2015 7:21:19 PM Allahpundit 134 Comments He and Rubio are the only two top-tier candidates I thought might pass on the race, and the only reason I thought Rubio would skip it is if Jeb Bush snapped up all the political talent in Florida for his own run. Cruz, I imagined, might pass simply More... Poll: 63% now say it's more important for feds to investigate terror threats than avoid interfering with privacy 1/19/2015 6:41:08 PM Allahpundit 88 Comments WaPo’s offering this as evidence that the public’s trending back towards security and away from privacy after Snowden’s heyday in 2013. It’s true, there is more support now for the former than there was 14 months ago; if Rand Paul More... Good news: You can now buy a real version of the killer police drone from Robocop 1/19/2015 6:01:45 PM Noah Rothman 24 Comments The good news is that it is "unclear," according to ABC News, as to whether or not this semi-humanoid robot's "shooting feature" is functional. The bad news is that it is unclear as to whether this semi-humanoid robot's shooting feature is functional. More... Leaked docs show Brit intelligence was collecting journalists' emails 1/19/2015 5:21:00 PM Jazz Shaw 16 Comments Despite our special relationship with the Brits and the fact that they have been staunch allies, every once in a while you run across a story which reminds you just how different our two cultures still are. (And maybe why we revolted in the first place More... Boom: Canadian troops and ISIS exchange fire in first confirmed ground battle in Iraq 1/19/2015 4:41:56 PM Noah Rothman 39 Comments It was only a matter of time before Western soldiers serving as advisors to Iraqi troops began to take on a role more closely resembling conventional ground forces. Any soldier or journalist who has served as a combat advisor or alongside one knows that, More... Oh my: 56% say Republicans should block Obama's executive amnesty 1/19/2015 4:01:31 PM Allahpundit 56 Comments Via Guy Benson. A few commenters torched me after this post last week about a YouGov poll claiming that 55 percent of the public wants the GOP to let Obama’s executive amnesty stand. The question YouGov asked was way too vague, they insisted. More... Confirmed: Protesters who shut down Boston interstate are exactly how you pictured them 1/19/2015 3:21:19 PM Allahpundit 116 Comments To cleanse the palate, via Joel Pollak, nothing says “blocking ambulances for social justice” like white-guy dreads. This makes twice in the span of four days that our worst stereotypes about liberals were magically vindicated, the other More...

The vast majority of those proposed tax increases are purportedly aimed at the "rich," although they would invariably More...

It seems to be a half-baked version of a tu quoque. Sure, says Chuck Todd, we laugh at French Muslims for being angry when Mohammed is mocked, More... Annual "the Patriots cheated" story investigated by NFL officials 1/19/2015 1:21:38 PM Jazz Shaw 166 Comments It’s becoming nearly as much of an annual football tradition as the Pro Bowl. Whether they are accused of secretly filming the practice sessions of other teams, (Spygate) getting hold of the playbooks of their opponents or just looking sneaky, the More... 2016 kickoff: Covering Iowa's Freedom Summit 1/19/2015 1:01:32 PM Ed Morrissey 70 Comments Are you ready for some primaries?

What was once ostensibly a series of protests over perceived inequity in the treatment of minority More... Michael Moore: I was taught that snipers were cowards 1/19/2015 11:21:45 AM Allahpundit 221 Comments Not all snipers, he’s quick to add. The ones shooting at our guys are pretty cool. I’m too lazy to sift through his archives on Iraq to see if he ever claimed “I support the troops but not their mission,” but if he did, it sounds More... Another of Obama's counterterrorism success stories falls apart 1/19/2015 10:41:00 AM Noah Rothman 29 Comments It seems like only yesterday that President Barack Obama was citing the security situation in Yemen as a positive example for counterterror planners around the globe. In September of last year, Obama addressed the nation regarding the increasingly More... |
