Chicagoans will (once again) have to put up with road closures, traffic backups, and helicopter “noise pollution” when Barack Obama comes (once again) to the Windy City this weekend. White House adviser Valerie Jarrett will also be in town for the wedding of her daughter,...

The big union and Hollywood money and progressive media machine...

James O’Keefe is loathed on the left almost on a par with what Andrew Breitbart experienced.  From ACORN to NPR to voter fraud in 2012, O’Keefe and his camera have caused havoc. Yet when blogger Adam Weinstein of Mother Jones approached O’Keefe this year at Netroots Nation, they...

I attended the Netroots Nation progressive convention this morning in Providence, Rhode Island.   The session was titled “American Indian Caucus.” When I asked the panel about Elizabeth Warren’s false claims to be Cherokee, they became defensive and accusatory, refused to condemn Warren or seek an...

Now they’re going after Ali Akbar, who is one of the leaders of the National Bloggers Club helping to defend Aaron Walker and others. As reported by Stacy McCain: Monday afternoon I was off the grid when Ali Akbar called to tell me that “Breitbart...

I have alluded to issues certain writers have taken with Elizabeth Warren’s academic writings. But never have I seen a more scathing critique of Warren than that published by highly regarded Rutgers Law Professor Philip Shuchman which was uncovered by Michael Patrick Leahy at Breitbart.com. The...

Elizabeth Warren is the Democratic Party nominee for Senate, after party leaders twisted arms to make sure Marisa DeFranco did not make the primary ballot. Warren may have become the nominee, but she’s still not Native American. Whereas prior to May 2012 one might have said Warren simply...

I’ve enjoyed covering the blog for much of the day today while the Professor was out. Since there’s no Saturday Night Card Game tonight, here are a couple of links to stories from the day that we didn’t get a chance to cover. U.S. and...

While it isn’t a new strategy, it seems as if the left has recently been ratcheting up its utilization of the stonewalling tactic when confronted by high profile controversy. Elizabeth Warren, who continues to show no signs of ever engaging in an honest discussion with...

In the latest CNN Presidential poll, Romney is trailing President Obama by just 3 points, making him within the statistical margin of error for the sampling. The new numbers mean that the President has dropped 6 points in a little over a month. Via Breitbart.com:...

There is something pathological in Elizabeth Warren’s refusal to acklowledge that she is not Native American. When confronted with the fact that real Cherokees have traced her maternal lineage back to the great-great-great grandparent level and found no Native American ancestry, Warren ignores the facts...

I told you this morning that Elizabeth Warren’s story about her parents having to elope because her father’s family objected to her mother being Native American did not ring true, as a Google search did not reveal her telling that story before even though she...
