It is well-funded, covert, highly organized, and supported by state and local authorities. It seeks to harass and obstruct the federal officers executing federal immigration law in Operation Metro Surge.

“We’re with CNN. It’s Okay”
CNN law enforcement correspondent Whitney Wild was harassed by a masked left-wing protester at the scene of the ICE shooting in Minneapolis. When Wild advised the protester she worked for CNN, the protester went away. She had confirmed they were on the same team.
Another Trans Shooting
It appears that trans people commit such crimes at a rate disproportionate to their numbers.
Meet the Late Al Jazeera “Journalist”
You may be wondering just how popular a “journalist” he was. 564,000 followers on X, and 1.6 million on Instagram, to be exact. One can only imagine how many millions around the world were exposed to his propaganda in the past 22 months. As Daniel Rubenstein quipped after news of his death broke, “Hamas content creators are not journalists.”
Germany’s Survival Is on the Line
Germany is now in decline, mostly on account of horrific government policies. The only significant force for change is the Alternative For Germany [AfD] party, which has recently been labeled a “right-wing extremist” organization. The German government’s ostracism of AfD is meant to analogize them to the Nazi party, but that is ridiculous.
Democrats Are Crazier Than We Thought
Rasmussen finds that 72% of Democrats think we are living in a fascist dictatorship. If they really meant it, they probably wouldn’t bother to vote in 2026. Because you can’t vote in a fascist dictatorship, can you? So it is just the usual hysteria.
Schumer Endorses Tesla Violence
Chuck Schumer has a history of trying to incite violence against conservatives, especially conservative Supreme Court justices.
Dems Take on Another Bad Cause
Astonishingly, Democrats are protesting against the Trump administration’s revoking the student visa of Mahmoud Khalil, the Syrian anti-Semite who led the effort to shut down Columbia, destroy university property, threaten Jewish students and prevent them from going to class.
Who Wasn’t Hitler?
Those of us who lived through their respective administrations know that, according to the left, just about every Republican president of the modern era has been Hitler. Nixon was Hitler. Reagan was Hitler. Bush (41) was Hitler. Bush (43) was Hitler. Trump was Hitler. Now Trump is Hitler again.
Freedom, Walz Style
Minnesota Governor Tim Walz declared an emergency on March 25, 2020, and ruled by decree for the following 15 months. His rule was arbitrary, petty, deceitful, tyrannical, and hugely destructive to life, liberty, jobs, commerce, and family. (This blog is based in Minnesota.)
Hamas at Dartmouth
By John Hinderaker: Dartmouth has avoided the ignominy suffered by some of its Ivy peers during the current anti-Semitic moment. That is because its president, Sian Leah Beilock–I missed it when Congress passed a statute requiring every university president to be a woman–has reacted swiftly to illegal demonstrations on Dartmouth’s campus.
Trump Goes on Trial
The case against Trump is a joke because the records violation of which Trump is accused is a misdemeanor, on which the statute of limitations has run. It is only a felony if the records were falsified to cover up another crime.
United Auto Workers for Genocide
It’s a mystery why UAW bosses consider wiping out Israel to be in the interest of their union’s members. But then, union bosses stopped caring about their members’ interests a long time ago. Now, they are just flacks for whatever cause the Left comes up with.
Maine Goes Crazy
The Maine Secretary of State, a left-wing activist, declared that Trump was an “insurrectionist” under the 14th Amendment. On the merits, this is an absurd claim. What happened on January 6 was a protest that got out of hand. The principal violence, and the only fatality, was inflicted by a capitol police officer.
America’s Slow Motion Kristallnacht
With each passing week since October 7, the outbursts of anti-Semitism in America have become more brazen, more widespread, more ferocious, and with fewer attempts to disguise its true character with academic jargon about colonialism. The Jew-hatred is completely out in the open now.
The Women’s Movement Is Worthless
That isn’t exactly a news flash. But has there ever been more definitive proof than the silence of most feminists in the face of Gaza’s brutal assault on Israeli women?
Why Didn’t MIT Expel Pro-Hamas Students?
Most of the pro-genocide students are non-Americans, most likely from the Middle East. They have brought their unAmerican attitudes with them to this country. MIT doesn’t want them to be deported, likely in part, at least, because they are rich kids who pay full freight. Foreign students are a cash cow for universities.
Jamaal Brown Is a Liar
Bowman is the Democratic rep who pulled the fire alarm next to an emergency exit in one of the House office buildings, in order to delay a vote on the House floor. A new video shows that every word Bowman has said about the incident was a lie. Bowman, meanwhile, was last seen voting for Hamas on the House floor. A thoroughly detestable character.
Our Disgraceful Press
The British Broadcasting Company is a notoriously anti-Semitic news outlet. Currently, the BBC is under pressure to start calling Hamas a “terrorist” organization rather than a “militant” one. The BBC is stoutly defending its refusal to label Hamas as terrorist, claiming that it is neutral in the conflict between Israel and Hamas, and calling Hamas terrorists would mean taking a side.
Universities Should Maybe Just Shut Up
The moral nihilism and leftist willfulness of American higher education have finally been exposed by the harsh light of the Hamas barbarism, and for a change there are consequences.
Is Crime Still Illegal?
Dick’s Sporting Goods just reported declining profits due to organized retail theft. What is lacking is the political will to enforce our laws.
Take a Load Off Fani
Scott Johnson: Fani Willis held a brief press conference just before midnight. In response to one of the few questions she took Willis emphatically professed ignorance regarding the posting of the Case Information by the clerk before the grand jury had voted the indictment. I don’t believe her.
Covid Is Over
Covid is so over that even Joe Biden gets it, though his declaration over the weekend that Covid is over is going to annoy the masks-forever faction of the Democratic Party, and make J. Edgar Fauci totally redundant.
About Those Nuclear Secrets in Mar-a-Lago
John Hinderaker: I think the likelihood that Trump has a good reason for keeping 10 or 15 boxes of miscellaneous records in his basement, after having returned 15 other boxes to the Archives months ago, is negligible. I suspect that Trump and Biden are collaborating in what both want–the elevation of a faux controversy over a few boxes of White House files into an election-defining battle.
