Christina Hoff Sommers was invited the the Lewis & Clark Law School Federalist Society chapter.
The “anti-fascist” coalition at the law school decided she should not be allowed to speak. Apparently having a different opinion, and fact checking the statistics behind claims of a campus rape crisis and wage differential makes...
Been off the grid mostly the past few days, without electricity after the Nor’easter that hit the Northeast, but particularly Rhode Island and Southeastern Massachusetts.
Not only did we lose electricity for several days, but we also lost our favorite tree, an old Apple tree at our shore. It had lost a...
Andrew Breitbart died 6 years ago today. We have remembered the anniversary of his death each year since then.
You can read our March 1, 2012, report, Andrew Breitbart dead:
Please see Update at bottom of post – The Canary Mission Twitter account has been restored
——————————–
Canary Mission is an anonymous group that monitors and reports on anti-Semitism and anti-Israel extremism by publishing the actual statements and social media postings of activists. Canary Mission has been under attack, and there have been...
Donald Trump today announced that he was running for reelection in 2020, and that Brad Parscale would be his campaign manager.
Parscale was the digital Director for Trump in 2016, and took the world by surprise through his use of micro-targeting on Facebook.
Oberlin College faces two serious lawsuits arising out of social justice activism on campus.
One suit, by a local bakery boycotted by Oberlin students and administration based on apparently false claims the bakery racially profiled students, has been permitted to move forward. We reported on that decision in Court: Gibson’s Bakery lawsuit against...
We probably shouldn’t laugh about this, because there’s some innocent Palestinian plastics factory owner who no longer has a business.
But then again, there’s something about this story that serves as a somewhat humorous metaphor for the Middle East dispute.
We previously reported that the Trump administration took the unusual step of trying to get the Supreme Court to hear the case of the San Francisco federal district court order preventing Trump from ending DACA without getting a ruling first from the 9th Circuit.
What made the procedure confounding, is that the...
As we have documented here dozens of times, a standard anti-Israel tactic on campuses is to disrupt events and speakers. The purpose of even a temporary disruption is to intimidate and make clear...
I don’t know if I was the first to predict it, but I’m claiming the title of The First anyway.
In our January 1, 2018 Predictions post, I made the following 2018 predictions (emphasis added):
Broward County Sheriff Scott Israel just admitted on Jake Tapper State of the Union that he knew of reports Deputy didn’t enter school at time of CNN town hall forum in which he mocked and berated the NRA and Dana Loesch.
Israel said he didn’t mention it during the forum because he...
One of the most astounding aspects of the politics after the Parkland school shooting is how quickly a small group of student leaders and a large number of leftist groups backing them focused on the NRA. The CNN three-ring circus event in which thousands of people jeered and shouted at Dana...
We have covered the campaign promise, then announcement that the U.S. Embassy would move to Jerusalem, as part of the U.S. recognition of Jerusalem as the capital of Israel.
That has met a furious response from Palestinians, including a boycott of U.S. diplomacy, and scattered violence.
Colton Haab, a student at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School, was planning to appear at the CNN event last night at which students and community members would question politicians and NRA representative Dana Loesch.
The event turned into a fiasco in which Loesch was called a murderer, threatened and jeered by a...
Paul Manafort made a tragic life decision when he agreed to serve as Trump’s campaign manager during the primaries, mostly because of his expertise in working delegates in floor fights. He just didn’t know it at the time.
Because Manafort was associated with the Trump campaign, he has come under the watch...
On February 19, 2018, the majority Democrat members of the Pennsylvania Supreme Court imposed a new congressional district map that was very Democrat friendly, likely swinging 4-5 seats to Democrats. It could be the difference between Democrats taking control of the U.S. House or not in the 2018 midterms.
The map became...
Five years ago today David Gerstman published his first post at Legal Insurrection.
There was a background to how he landed here, and David told that story in his first post, I said, “Hi.” She said, “Yeah, I guess I am.”
