De Blasio Time

7th June 2020

Read it.

Do you miss the old New York City? Remember when subway trains were covered in graffiti, a news hour began with six shootings and everyone who lived in the city had been mugged at least once?

Remember when Times Square had more strip clubs than theaters and when you could afford an apartment in the village because it was a drug infested mess?

Remember when the city and everyone living in it were on the verge of bankruptcy and the only people who had money lived upstate or in a small cluster of Manhattan?

Remember when everything was grimy and had a layer of filth, when people moved to the city because they wanted to slum, when nothing worked and no one cared and the only difference between New York and Chicago was that it had taller buildings?

If you miss that classic New York, there’s good news because Bill de Blasio is bringing it back.

You Deserve a Brick Today

7th June 2020

Read it.

The BLM protests about the death of George Floyd in Minneapolis are convulsing Western Europe, just as they are the UK, Canada, Australia, and the USA.

Today in Düsseldorf a supply of cobblestones was placed conveniently near the demonstration site in a construction area where the street had been opened up. The situation provides the paranoid mind with ample food for speculation about how the projectiles came to be placed exactly where they would be sorely needed by the “anti-fascists” later in the day. The directive to open up the street would have to come from at least the level of the municipal government. Who ordered it? Did he or she know the ultimate disposition of the cobblestones?

The thing is, the same convenient placement of bricks and cobbles has been observed and photographed in Berlin, Bremen, Cologne, Hamburg, Karlsruhe, Mainz, Mannheim, Wiesbaden, and other German cities.

‘Unhinged Bias’: Liberal Law Professor Jonathan Turley Slams MSNBC for Hiring Lisa Page as Legal Analyst

7th June 2020

Read it.

“Lisa Page is the new Legal Analyst for NBC and MSNBC,” Turley, a self-described liberal, tweeted Saturday in response to news that MSNBC hired former FBI lawyer Lisa Page as a legal analyst. “The problem is not that Page disagrees with the Administration on legal matters but that she is personally involved in the investigations and has shown intense and at times unhinged bias against Trump.”

Turley continued: “It seems like bias has become the coin of the realm for some networks. Why have echo journalism when you can have an analyst simply repeat her position directly? With Page, NBC has crossed the Rubicon and left its objectivity scattered on the far bank.”

Twitter Yawns as Celebrities Promote Hate, Violence

6th June 2020

Read it.

We didn’t need to read Kathy Griffin’s latest Tweets to see Twitter’s liberal bias. But it helps.

The far-left comedian famously curtailed her career when she posed with the faux severed head of President Donald Trump. Even our cynical culture cried foul over the image, one mirroring the atrocities committed by ISIS.

Griffin apologized, melted down and then un-apologized when she realized the Resistance cheered on her visual savagery. All the cool celebrities wished death on President Trump.

She’s been milking that photo’s fallout ever since.

Keith Ellison for Dummies

6th June 2020

Read it.

I wrote the Weekly Standard article “Louis Farrakhan’s first congressman” and wrote the companion Power Line post “Keith Ellison for dummies” in October 2006, when Ellison was on the verge of election to Congress representing Minnesota’s Fifth District.

I was provoked to write these pieces by the poor job Minneapolis’s Star Tribune had done documenting Ellison’s troubling past. Indeed, I had been contacted by several prominent Democrats who had dealt with Ellison and were themselves frustrated by the errors and omissions in the Star Tribune’s coverage.

The New York Times’ New Standard for Acceptable Op-Eds

5th June 2020

Read it.

After initially defending publication, the Times now claims the op-ed “did not meet our standards.” The op-ed was the result of a “rushed editorial process,” the paper adds.

But James Dao, the Times’ deputy editorial page editor, says that several editors saw the op-ed before it was published — “including one on the masthead: me.” Dao also says the op-ed was fact-checked. Thus, claims about a “rushed editorial process” and failure to “meet standards” are rubbish.

Dao gets to the heart of the matter when he states he is “sorry” that the op-ed had “this kind of impact on my colleagues.” This, then, is the Times’ new standard for op-eds: They must not offend lefty staff members.

My, what a surprise. Aren’t you surprised? I’m sure surprised.

‘Only the cops need guns” simply could not live forever alongside, “The cops are racist and will kill you.” And so, at long last, the two circles of the Venn Diagram have filed for an amicable divorce. In the end, the differences proved irreconcilable.

Please Don’t Go!

That is what officials in cities that have been devastated by rioters, looters and arsonists are saying to businesses whose investments in those cities have gone up in smoke. Steve touched on this earlier, but I want to amplify the point. The following are just three examples of many that we will see in the coming weeks.

If I were in one of the Blue cities that got hit by riots and had to watch the police stand by while buildings burned and livelihoods were destroyed, I’d beat feat at the first opportunity.

What is a “food desert”? A food desert is an area where crime, shoplifting and, as here, looting and arson have made it unprofitable to operate a grocery store. There is no such thing as a food desert in a law-abiding neighborhood. Here’s a news flash: If you burn down the grocery stores near where you live, you might have a hard time buying groceries.

Actions have consequences.

CNN Gave Over 90 Minutes in One Day to Now-Retracted Hydroxychloroquine Study

4th June 2020

Read it.

When Jeffrey Zucker’s CNN settles on a narrative, they flood the zone with employees singing from the same sheet music; seeing as how they have a President to hate.

Such was the case on May 22 when CNN shows spent 90 minutes and 54 seconds heralding a now-debunked study that originally claimed taking hydroxychloroquine while battling COVID-19 could be fatal. Over on MSNBC, the total clocked out at a smaller but still sizable total of 19 minutes and 19 seconds.

For this count, the MRC looked at every hour of live programming from CNN and MSNBC May 22, and, in the case of CNN shows and MSNBC primetime, backed up by Nexis transcripts. Since the study went live just before 9:00 a.m. Eastern, each of the 10 subsequent CNN shows covered the study. On MSNBC, nine shows featured it.

How about coverage of the retraction? As of this study’s publication, MSNBC has ignored it while CNN has only given it one minute and 45 seconds during The Lead with Jake Tapper. So much for Jim Acosta’s claim last week that journalists correct their mistakes.

Oh? Like what? Go around hating on white people? That’s not ‘combatting racism’.

‘Eyes are on you:’ Minneapolis Neighbors Band to Stand Guard

4th June 2020

Read it.

If people cannot depend on the police to protect their lives and property, and recent experience makes it pretty plain that (in Blue cities at least) they cannot, then they will use their ancient right of Self-Help and band together in their own defense.

I’m curious as to how long it will be before we see that traditional name ‘Committee of Vigilance’ resurrected.

The Los Angeles Pogrom That No Jewish Organization Will Talk About

4th June 2020

Read it.

After the end of Shavuot, the holiday in which Jewish people joyfully commemorate the giving of the Ten Commandments on Mount Sinai, the Jewish community of Los Angeles concluded it by the new ritual of going to clean off the hateful graffiti from their houses of worship while picking up the broken glass from the black nationalist and radical leftist night of broken glass in Los Angeles.

How Crazy Are the Democrats? This Crazy.

4th June 2020

Read it.

There is a movement going on now, believe it or not, to abolish the police. That phrase is ubiquitous in social media and is being taken seriously by many Democratic politicians. What would the world look like without law enforcement? I suppose the Wild West before sheriffs got hired, only way more crowded, with vastly more criminals and a more depraved culture. And of course the same people who want to abolish the local police department don’t want you to be able to defend yourself, either.

The benefit of ‘no police’ is that there won’t be anyone to arrest me when I shoot a looter. So it’s not all bad.
