It’s like clockwork.
President Donald Trump tweets out criticisms of someone or something. Democrats hop on he Twitter machine and left-wing cable news networks to denounce his comments and defend the object of his ire.

Jesus: social justice warrior? Apparently so, if you believe Jacqui Lewis, senior minister of the very liberal Middle Collegiate Church in NYC.

A former Obama White House adviser to President Obama, Karine Jean-Pierre, said this morning that “the thing about Donald Trump is that he is the known. He is, it is very reminiscent of cross-burning in front of your house. Of the KKK.”
Jean-Pierre made her outrageous remark in response to a question...
Quick: name the woman who was the object of Donald Trump’s crude remarks on the hot mic. Bet most of us can’t. Because her identity, while not a secret, has not been featured in the coverage. For example, this Insurrectionist sampled most of the Sunday talks shows this morning and didn’t...
Morning Joe did a very decent job today of covering the shooting of police officers in Dallas and the issue of police shootings of African-American. The remarks were generally even-handed.

Whether one believes in God or not, whenever natural disasters strike and deaths are involved, people often ask, “Why?”. They ask: “Why did this happen?”; “Why did this have to happen now?”; and sadly, “Why did ________ have to die?”
The worst response is when somebody tries to politicize such tragedies, especially...
When Al Sharpton called for the nationalization of America’s police forces earlier this month, many were quick to dismiss him as reactionary or even radical. However, it may be worth revisiting this point in light of the news that the DOJ is going to be spending $20 million in body cams...
