NY Times Editorial: The Chicago Police Scandal
A conspiracy of concealment. The cover-up that began 13 months ago when a Chicago police officer
executed 17-year-old Laquan McDonald on a busy street might well have
included highly ranked officials who ordered subordinates to conceal
information. But the conspiracy of concealment exposed last week when
the city, under court order, ... MOREJohn Stossel: The Left Smears Inconvenient Truths
Like more guns mean less crime. This week my TV show is on gun control. I interviewed activist Leah Barrett, who wants stricter gun laws. I pointed out that after most states loosened gun laws to let people carry guns, 29 peer-reviewed studies examined the effect. Eighteen found less crime, 10 found no difference and only one found an increase. ... MOREAlexander Hendrie: Impeach IRS chief John Koskinen
Halt the tax agency’s partisan scheming. After revelations that the Internal Revenue Service was restricting political speech and targeting conservative and tea party groups, John Koskinen was appointed to head the agency, promising reform and transparency. These promises never came to fruition. Instead of admitting fault, Mr. Koskinen’s IRS ... MOREBeyond Distrust: How Americans View Their Government
from Pew Research. We should be worried about the 19%. A year ahead of the presidential election,
the American public is deeply cynical about government, politics and
the nation’s elected leaders in a way that has become quite familiar. Currently, just 19% say they can trust the government always or most of the time, among the lowest ... MOREThomas Sowell: Political Translations
Sugar-coating empty words. It is amazing how many different ways the same thing can be said,
creating totally different impressions. For example, when President
Barack Obama says that defeating ISIS is going to take a long time, how
is that different from saying that he is going to do very little, very
slowly? It is saying the same thing in ... MOREA New Taxpayer Bailout To Cover Up ObamaCare’s Failure?
by Betsy McCaughey. How dare the Obama administration bail out insurance companies with our money in order to hide ObamaCare’s failures. Thursday, just hours after giant insurer UnitedHealthcare said it’s losing money selling ObamaCare plans and will likely exit the health exchanges next year, the Obama administration quietly ... MORE
The Newest Obama Lie: We Can Vet The Syrian Refugees
by Ed Straker. Deploying the honor system with terrorists. Both Jeb Bush and Marco Rubio have called for the US to accept more Syrian refugees, as long as they are properly "vetted", of course. But what does it mean to "vet" a refugee? Normally, if someone wants to come into the United States, say, from France or Germany, our government ... MOREThomas Sowell: The Ben Carson Flap
Conservative blacks disrupt the MSM narrative. Dr. Ben Carson's whole life has been very unusual, so perhaps we should not be surprised to see the latest twist — the media going ballistic over discrepancies in a few things he said. Years ago, when I was writing some autobiographical sketches, I dug up old letters, to check out ... MOREMore Trouble For Jerry Brown's Rail Boondoggle
by Steven Greenhut. Moonbeam's plan no longer resembles original proposal. One of the biggest problems with California Gov. Jerry Brown's efforts to battle climate change is the "do or die" nature of the situation. Based on his rhetoric, there's little room for debate over costs, benefits, details and oversight. When the future of the Earth is at stake, ... MORE
Andrew Napolitano: The Mistress of Deception
Don't trust that tongue, even if it's notarized. The self-inflicted wounds of Hillary Rodham Clinton just keep manifesting themselves. She has two serious issues that have arisen in the past week; one is political and the other is legal. Both have deception at their root. Her political problem is one of credibility. We know from her emails that ... MOREMarcus E. Howard: The Pentagon Has Squandered Millions Paying Pro Sports Teams To Honor Soldiers At Games
It's like paying a whore to say, "I love you." The Pentagon and National Guard paid professional sports teams to publicly honor soldiers at sporting events, according to a Senate oversight report released Wednesday that labeled the practice “inappropriate and frivolous.” Since the end of 2011, the military has spent $6.8 million on sports ... MOREHouston's LGBT Bathroom Losers Vow To By-Pass The People And Go Straight To Bureaucrats And Administrators
by Kelsey Harkness. An end run around democracy.The people who matter are policy-makers who have the ability to change the regulations which make life difficult for transgender people on a day to day basis. Bureaucrats, administrators, judges, HR benefits, directors, school superintendents, police chiefs: these are the kinds of people ... MOREBarry Farber: Hillary Clinton Is A Comfortable Liar
Some lies are defensible, others not-so-much. He was furious, a radio listener calling in rage because I’d said that lying was sometimes permissible in government. I may even have said a president who refuses ever to lie should be impeached. That’s not my favorite argument, but I don’t shirk from it. Imagine a president confronted with a ... MOREWhat If Hillary Clinton Is Too Big To Jail?
by Anita Kumar and Greg Gordon. Hillary Clinton appears to have overcome an investigation of her role in the 2012 deadly attacks in Benghazi, Libya, but she still faces a months-long FBI inquiry into the handling of sensitive information while she was secretary of state. The FBI’s Counterintelligence Division, which opened its review ... MOREAn 'Encyclopedic Example of Liberal Media Bias'
Brent Bozell on CNBC's unmasking at the GOP debate. MRC president Brent Bozell issued a statement Wednesday night criticizing the overall tilt and tone of the CNBC Republican debate in Boulder: "The CNBC moderators acted less like journalists and more like Clinton campaign operatives. What was supposed to be a serious debate about ... MOREAndrew Napollitano: A Midwife To Chaos And Her Perjury
A confirmed liar asks for your vote. The New York Times' Maureen Dowd captured the moment last weekend when she referred to former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton as "the midwife to chaos" in Libya. Dowd apparently came to that conclusion after watching Clinton bobbing and weaving and admitting and denying as she was confronted with ... MORE
