Crazy might be the best term for describing the first segment of CNN’s so-called Reliable Sources on Sunday. Media janitor Brian Stelter invited on two far-left psychiatrists to debate how the media should cover President Trump alleged mental illness. While one was busy advocating to throw out professional ethics, the other one was declaring Trump had been worse than some of the last century’s most evil people. Dr. Allen Frances was there to counter the argument that the media should tap psychiatrists to get medical opinions about the President’s mental health. “Well, I think that medicalizing politics has three very...

Real America is coming after you,” he tweeted.

By now almost everyone knows that Cory Booker and I were soul-friends who connected — beginning at Oxford where he served as my student president — over the Torah, Jewish values, and a mutual passion to better the world. Everyone also knows that we our relationship hit stormy waters when Cory betrayed the Jewish community, who supported him for decades, and voted for the Iran deal without so much as condemning Iran’s promise to annihilate Israel. Now Cory, in the midst of a presidential race, is going further, weaponizing the Torah I taught him and the Hebrew words I practiced...

Ilhan Omar has once again thrust herself into the spotlight by joining fellow congresswoman Rashida Tlaib in shunning a bipartisan congressional delegation to Israel and announcing their intent to instead schedule an independent trip – sponsored by the notoriously anti-Israel nongovernmental organization Miftah – to the Jewish state. But Israel’s government – in accordance with an Israeli law barring the issuance of visas to any foreigners who, like Omar and Tlaib, advocate economic and cultural boycotts against Israel – stated that the two congresswomen would not be permitted to enter the country. Omar described Israel’s move as “an insult to democratic values and...

"If he's our nominee in 2020, the Republican Party is going to get spanked, because young people don't like Trump. Women don't like Trump and people who live in the suburbs don't like Trump."

Leftists keep saying, like a mantra, that “White Men Are Terrorists”. All white men? What about non-white men and women? This need to make evil things like terrorism appear to be somehow worse, by being “white”, is pathological, and racist, and characteristically leftist. And it also blows up in the faces of these leftist racists when, if we’re going to actually classify terrorism based on “race”, there is NO terrorism like “brown terrorism”, “brown” being the word that racist leftists use when they speak of other human beings, as all they see is color. And that’s why we keep hearing...
