‘Rolling Stone’ and the Media Spin After The Mueller Report

In the aftermath of the release of the Mueller report, news media agencies have engaged in retrospectives about their coverage of the Russia collusion investigation. These circle-the wagons analyses have ranged from “we did a good job” to “we did a really good job.” Thus, based on their behavior so far, Trump foe Matt Taibbi, a contributing editor for the far-left Rolling Stone magazine, expects that media outlets will learn nothing from what he described as the Russiagate fiasco. read more

Netanyahu Wins, Deep State and Globalists Lose

Benjamin Netanyahu has won reelection as prime minister of Israel, putting him on course to be the country’s longest-serving chief executive in the Jewish state’s history. The Netanyahu right-wing coalition gives the incumbent leader a majority in Israel’s multi-party parliament, the Knesset, which is necessary to form a government. Under a parliamentary system, the “government” is essentially equivalent to our executive branch, with key member of parliament simultaneously serving in the leader’s cabinet. Although it won the same number of seats as Netanyahu’s Likud Party, the opposition “centrist” Blue and White coalition has formally conceded. Israel is the only functioning, multi-ethnic democracy in the Middle East. read more

Candace Owens Is Trending: Here’s Why

Back in February, this blog explained that needlessly bringing up the H word is always a bad idea. Turning Point USA communications director and pro-Trump stalwart Candace Owens learned after her past remarks surfaced from an event in Britain where the organization opened a new chapter. Like her or not, everyone including Candace Owens needs to realize that liberal blue-check Twitter and all the assorted media and political grifters are going to immediately pounce on any high-profile conservative’s use of the H word. It’s just asking for trouble. read more

Israel Apartheid: Here’s the Proof

Critics of Israel, including those activists in the Boycott, Disinvestment, and Sanctions movement, argue that the Jewish state practices apartheid. So-called Israel Apartheid Week is scheduled for April 8-11, overlapping with Israel’s April 9 national election and the run-up to the Passover celebration. Against that backdrop, it seems appropriate to point out that the small country is the only functioning, westernized democracy in the Middle East. Like the U.S., Israel has issues, not the least of which is its own Deep State seeking to undermine incumbent Prime Minister Netanyahu. Among other civil rights, it is also a country where people are free to practice any religion or no religion. A visitor walking down the street of any Israeli city will immediately realize that it is a diverse, multi-ethnic, multicultural country. These compelling images say it all about Israel apartheid. read more
