A very flustered Nancy Pelosi was met by an angry bunch of DREAMers at a DREAMer event in San Francisco Monday. The crowd was shouting, demanding to know where she was when they asked for help, to which Pelosi replied, “you don’t know what you’re talking about.

As we’ve blogged before,...
On July 13, 2015, long before it was clear or even likely that Trump would be the Republican nominee, much less president, I wrote at National Review how central the issue of illegal immigration was to Trump’s rise.
My post was Trump’s Lesson: Voters Are Furious about Illegal Immigration:
Late Wednesday night, Democrats Sen. Schumer and White House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi announced they’d reached a deal with Trump on DACA and that funding for Trump’s campaign cornerstone, the border wall, was not part of the agreement, though they’d agreed to include some form of beefed up border security.
Trump and...
My my, how the political pendulum has swung about the little darlings known as Antifa.
Antifa, as we documented, are the continuation of a long line of Anarchist-Marxist street thugs originally known as Black Bloc, then Occupy, then in the age of the Resistance to Trump, were rebranded as “Anti-Fascist,” hence, Antifa....
Over the weekend, Antifa thugs went to a park in Berkeley after a No To Marxism rally was canceled. Some people did show up and received beatings from the Antifa jerks as the police backed down.
Berkeley Mayor Jesse Arreguin criticized the violence, but was okay with the police standing down. He...
Having lost most of their political power, Democrats are desperately wielding their not inconsiderable social and cultural power. From colleges and universities to statues and flags, the regressive left is demonstrating an alarming anti-American sentiment that threatens to undermine not just our nation’s history but its very fabric.
Case in point: Californian...
Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr., in discussing the limits of free speech, wrote in Schenck v. U.S. (1919):
“The most stringent protection of free speech would not protect a man in falsely shouting fire in a theatre and causing a panic.”
A lot of people mess up the quote, saying that “you can’t...
In the aftermath of four Special Election defeats, including a devastating loss in Georgia’s Sixth District, Democrats are trying to figure out where it all went wrong.
Democrats were expecting anti-Trump *Resistance* to be enough. But it wasn’t. It’s not that focusing intently on the opposing party’s leader doesn’t work anymore. It’s...
Identity politics seemed to help Democrats . . . until it didn’t. In the wake of their devastating presidential election loss in 2016, Democrats have steadfastly avoided confronting the myriad flaws in their “divide and conquer” strategy that centers on creating a seemingly endless number of imagined underclasses and then nurturing...
Democratic candidate Jon Ossoff will square off against Republican Karen Handel in the June 20th election for the seat formerly held by Rep. Tom Price who now serves as HHS Secretary.
As the runoff special election in Georgia’s sixth Congressional district nears the one-month-away mark, national Republican groups are running a slew...
I predicted that the shenanigans used to lift-up the weak primary campaign of Hillary Clinton against her grassroots challenger, Bernie Sanders, would impact the Democratic Party for some time to come.
Those chickens are now coming home to roost!
The GOP healthcare bill AHCA failed before Speaker Paul Ryan (R-WI) could even bring it to the floor.
Of course, the Democrats have used this opportunity to gloat and take credit on television, even though they hold the minority in the House and Senate.
Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer and House Minority Leader...
Tone deaf and completely without self-awareness or irony, Nancy Pelosi actually asserted that the American people have a right to know what’s in the GOP health care (insurance) bill before it passes.
Via Mediaite, Pelosi wrote to Paul Ryan:
Dear Speaker Ryan,
This week, the Committees on Energy & Commerce and Ways & Means...
Democrats, apparently eager to display their blatant disrespect for our nation’s law enforcement officers, keep trying to display their view of police officers as pigs for the world to see.
The “art” was taken down by Representative Duncan Hunter (R-CA), then rehung by Representative Lacy Clay (D-MO), taken down yet again
After an entire summer of protests, Obama, Pelosi, and Reid were determined, in late 2009, to set the groundwork for shoving ObamaCare down the throat of every American (who never liked or wanted it . . . and still don’t).
Remember those late 2009 special sessions in which Democrats planned to push...
The Russian hacking/tainted election story line is a particularly fascinating coping mechanism in leftist elite circles.
All signs point to a painfully out of touch party platform, the world’s worst presidential candidate, and a fundamental misunderstanding of the political landscape, yet Democrats are blaming the Russians for their embarrassing electoral...
Margaret Thatcher once famously said that “the problem with socialism is that you eventually run out of other people’s money.” Is that what’s happened to the Democratic party?
Morning Joe devoted a navel-gazing segment today to the question of where Dems go from here given their loss of the presidency, their failure...
