My latest in PJ Media: C-SPAN on Wednesday announced the results of its 2021 Presidential Historians Survey, and it’s drearily predictable: In the overall rankings, Barack Obama cracks the top ten, while Donald Trump is down among those whose presidencies were one long dumpster fire: Franklin Pierce, Andrew Johnson, and James Buchanan. This is not surprising, […]
What’s Wrong with Putting America First?
My latest in the American Thinker: The overarching lesson of the triumphant Republican National Convention this week is that America is great, and that it is good and proper for an American president to put America first. In that, of course, the RNC is echoing President Trump’s consistent statements since he began running for president […]
Obama official admits: “Violent extremism” is really “radical Islamic extremism”
Writing in the New York Times, Richard Stengel, who served as Obama’s under secretary of state for public diplomacy and public affairs, is now open to admitting that the unnamed “violent extremism” against which the USA has been struggling with for more than two decades is actually “radical Islamic extremism.” He has the following reason why […]
CNBC frets that Trump victory has “enraged” jihad terror groups
“Jihadists used social media to warn that having Trump in the White House would unite the mujahideen, SITE director Rita Katz tweeted, with supporters of Al Qaeda (AQ) and the Islamic State (IS) saying the billionaire’s election exposed America’s hatred of Muslims and would contribute to America’s downfall.” That’s just bluster. If it weren’t Trump’s […]
Muslims in U.S. on Trump: “We know he sees us as less than human”
Nora Nashawaty, a 23-year-old Syrian-American student living in Chicago, said of Trump: “We know he doesn’t want to listen to us, and we know that he sees us as less than human.” She knows that? Muslims know that? On what basis? Has Trump ever said anything remotely to that effect? Of course not. She says […]
Muslims in U.S. after Trump victory: “I fear for my Muslim family”
Are roving bands of Trump supporters beating up innocent, pious, hijabbed Muslimas today? Of course not. But victimhood is a prized status in twenty-first century America, and so Islamic supremacists in the United States are today playing the victim card for all it’s worth. Hamas-linked CAIR and other Muslims have on many occasions not hesitated to […]
“I’m disappointed because Hillary Clinton is good for Pakistan and Muslims all over the world”
This article is just one of the many Muslims-are-victims pieces to which the defeated mainstream media propagandists are treating us today. None of them contain any suggestions for containing or rolling back the jihad threat, or any recognition that people are suspicious of Islam because of jihad terror, not because of Donald Trump’s rhetoric. “I […]
Robert Spencer in PJ Media: The People — and No One Else — Have Spoken
No elites, no media. This is a REAL uprising. My latest in PJ Media: The establishment media and the political elites are reeling, and we have every reason to believe they will never recover. Considering the massive coalition Donald Trump and his movement had to fight against, it may truly be said that the people […]
Netanyahu congratulates Trump, “a true friend of the state of Israel”
Education Minister Naftali Bennett said that Trump’s victory was an “opportunity for Israel to immediately retract the notion of a Palestinian state in the centre of the country, which would hurt our security and just cause.” That would be a good thing. A “Palestinian” state would, like Gaza, simply become another jihad base for renewed […]
Merkel warns Trump: Cooperation only if he upholds “dignity of man, independent of religion or political views”
Lofty words. Trump should uphold the “values of democracy, freedom, and respect for the law and the dignity of man, independent of origin, skin colour, religion, gender, sexual orientation, or political views. I offer the next President of the United States close cooperation on the basis of these values.” Why does Merkel, and the rest […]
