In 2014, Ro Khanna, a former Obama official, was on the campaign trail in his congressional race while touting his support from LinkedIn billionaire Reid Hoffman. Around the same time, Hoffman was visiting Jeffrey Epstein’s island. A decade later, Hoffman and Khanna have become some of the most vocal crusaders against the long dead Epstein. Hoffman dropped an estimated six figures on a Monday Night Football ad by supposed Epstein ‘survivors’ demanding the release of the ‘Epstein files’. None of the ‘survivors’ in the ad mentioned the names of any of the men who abused them or revealed that the ad was being paid for by an associate of Jeffrey Epstein and a visitor to his ‘island’. The ad, in support of Rep. Ro Khanna and Rep. Thomas Massie’s performative Epstein bill, highlighted the longstanding connections between Khanna, Hoffman and Epstein. When Rep. Khanna appeared on CNN to demand that “the Epstein class needs to go”, Reid Hoffman chimed in to agree, “we need the full truth.” The...

Nearly a year after LA’s worst wildfires, we’re closer than ever to knowing what happened. And the answers were DEI, a small weed and fish. And an obsessive hatred for Ronald Reagan. The roots of the environmentalist insanity that killed a dozen people and destroyed over 5,000 buildings actually go back a generation to the construction of the Reagan Library in Simi Valley. While RDS or Reagan Derangement Syndrome has become a distant memory, it was burning fiercely back then and the construction of the library seemed to be adding insult to injury.. Leftists looking for some way to block the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library seized on the presence of any plants in the area that they could brand as endangered including Lyon’s pentachaeta, a tiny daisy, and a weed, and a variety of milk vetch, an otherwise unremarkable plant that has a short life and tends to sprout after wildfires. The Reagan library was forced to agree to transplant the weeds, which didn’t work, but ate up time and mon...

In 2025, Hamas and Hezbollah flags became regular sights on Ivy League college campuses, a Muslim immigrant who embraced an unindicted coconspirator in bombing plots in New York City became its mayor, presidential envoys chatted with Hamas and an Al Qaeda leader who used to have a $10 million reward on his head visited the White House and met with the president. The mainstreaming of Islamic terrorism didn’t happen overnight. A decade ago, the Obama administration backed the Al Qaeda militias that would eventually go on to take over Syria and first forced Israel to negotiate with Hamas after the kidnapping and murder of three teens. What went on under the cover of plausible deniability a decade ago, where our government pretended we were backing the Free Syrian Army, a ‘democratic’ and ‘secular’ movement, (which critics like me pointed out was just Al-Qaeda in drag), or where our negotiators did not directly meet with Hamas, where anti-Israel campus groups claimed that they supported BD...

The House Democrats on the Oversight Committee, whose header is a picture of Trump and Jeffrey Epstein, released a cache of emails that they claimed indicted Trump. Instead the emails again confirm that Trump had broken ties with Epstein and wanted nothing more to do with him. The Democrat members of the committee showed no interest in why members of their party in three states, New York, Florida and New Mexico, covered up for Epstein and kept him off the sex offender registry. That’s not something Trump, who didn’t even hold public office until six years later, could have done. If the House Dems on the Oversight Committee really wanted to know, they could have asked one of their own members: Rep. Melanie Stansbury. At the recent ‘No Kings’ rally, Rep. Stansbury claimed that “America has no kings.” America may have no kings, but New Mexico had two influential ones. Bruce and Gary King. Former Gov. Bruce King had been a power player in the state from the 50s through the 90s. During his ...

Kamala Harris has a 2028 problem. It’s bigger than her past support for castrating illegal alien criminals at taxpayer expense or calling for an end to private health insurance. The problem is the 178 lb man senile 82-year-old whom she backed in the 2024 election. In her book ‘107 Days’, Kamala tries to have it both ways, protesting that she only lost because Biden dropped out too late for her to have a real chance to campaign, but also standing by her past defenses of Biden as fit to run. Someone should have told him to drop out, she insists, but it couldn’t be her because she was too self-interested. But not too self-interested to replace him. Kamala’s book launch is supposed to redeem her, but instead it damns her. Kamala claimed that she was too “loyal” to tell Biden to drop out or to distance herself from him, but a loyal VP wouldn’t have written a campaign memoir taking shots at Biden for not doing enough for her. Over a year after the big Biden lie collapsed, Kamala is still t...

Antisemitism is about many things, but it’s usually about much bigger things than the Jews. That is one of the things that makes antisemitism different from any of the conventional bigotries. Marxists and Communists, beginning with Marx himself, used antisemitism to define capitalism as an evil and oppressive ideology. “Money is the jealous god of Israel before whom no other god may exist,” Marx argued. “The god of the Jew has been secularized and has become the god of the world.” Marx disliked the Jews, despite his ancestry, but he hated capitalism more. And he wanted everyone else to hate it by associating capitalism with the Jews. The Nazis, who borrowed much from the Marxists, used the same attacks on capitalism, but they also had a larger cultural agenda and made use of an even more militant antisemitism to replace the moral principles of Christianity with a neo-pagan racial modernism in which the disabled would be killed, marriage would be swapped for genetically compatible breed...

I was in high school when I came across a copy of ‘13th Gen: Abort, Retry, Ignore, Fail’ in the principal’s office. The book with its shortened ‘generation’ title, computer reference, mixture of cartoons and factoids had been intended for teenagers, but was mostly read by the baby boomers trying to understand them. And ‘13th Gen’s message was to blame the Boomers. ‘13th Gen’ was the work of two D.C. consultants and staffers William Strauss and Neil Howe trying to popularize their, unfortunately all too popular, ‘generational theory’ to a younger generation that they presumed was stupid, shallow and incapable of grasping anything that wasn’t an MTV music video. And they did it by trying to convince Gen X they were victims. The popular stereotype of the newest generation as lazy idiots wasn’t a new one. “What is happening to our young people? They disrespect their elders. They disobey their parents. They ignore the laws. They riot in the streets inflamed with wild notions. Their morals a...
