How “Islamophobia” Came to Be
Aug 7, 2019 | WND.com | by Jack Cashill

For all their internal disagreements—should, for instance, gays be celebrated or stoned to death?—the various subcults of the larger progressive movement have learned from each other and absorbed each other’s tactics.

Who Wrote the Mueller Report?
July 27, 2019 | AmericanThinker.com | by Jack Cashill

It was in the pages of the American Thinker in October 2008 that I made the first in-depth case for Bill Ayers's involvement in the writing of Barack Obama's Dreams from My Father. Given that Obama was assumed to be a genius, the mainstream media and, alas, the media of the respectable right wanted nothing to do with my ostensibly "racist" research. Racism explains all.

“And I think that if Donald Trump is re-elected, and in the second term, maybe a reporter ends up in jail, maybe one of those investigators being investigated for the third time now ends up in jail," so said Nicolle Wallace who plays a journalist on MSNBC.

The beauty of reporting for a network like MSNBC--or just about every other network for that matter--is that you address an audience that was spared just about all news of presidential mischief from 2008 to 2016. . . [more]

Having fallen asleep in his Che Guevara T-shirt, he would groggily ask his commune mates, “What’s up with that?”

Three years earlier, the Star widely covered the story of a highway shooter who terrorized the metro for more than a month, hitting at least a dozen cars and wounding several people.

Just How Many Illegals Did Vote in 2016?

Once upon a time—and it was not that long ago--the media prided themselves on exposing voter fraud. This all changed in the early part of the 21st century.

In one of the great unreported opinion shifts, progressives throughout the political and media establishments decided almost as one that illegal immigration was no longer a problem and thus neither was voter fraud. . . [more]

Remembering Earth Day Founding Father - and Girlfriend Composter: Ira Einhorn
April 23, 2017 | AmericanThinker.com | by Jack Cashill

With Earth Day come and gone, I could find no evidence of public recognition for one of its founding fathers, the only slightly atypical Ira Einhorn, the soi-disant “Unicorn.”

In the way of background, the first formal Earth Day did not take place on the vernal equinox as originator John McConnell had hoped. Rather, it took place on April 22, 1970, a Wednesday. How this seemingly arbitrary date was picked has been lost to history. No one has taken public credit for choosing it. Still, one does not have to be a conspiracy theorist to suspect that the choice of date might have had something to do with the fact that April 22, 1970, was Vladimir Lenin’s one-hundredth birthday. . .

It appears likely that Green was abusing other boys over a period of at least twelve years in at least two different school districts, and Green’s crime is not the half of it. . . [more]

Politico Absolves Gorelick for Instituting the Wall

Karni thinks she gets it, “Gorelick sees herself as part of a time-honored Washington tradition of well-respected lawyers representing clients from the opposite party,”. . . .

More than a few of my Washington allies noticed a seemingly unremarkable bit of news in a Monday Washington Post article that they thought I ought to see. The article concerned Jared Kushner’s appointment as adviser to his father-in-law Donald Trump.

The appointment did not trouble my friends. What troubled them was the Post’s casual mention that Kushner’s attorney was none other than Jamie Gorelick, deputy attorney general under President Bill Clinton. Observed the Post, Gorelick “is confident that the anti-nepotism statute does not cover Trump's appointment of Kushner.” . . . [more]

Wesleyan University sophomore Bryan Stascavage knew he would ruffle a few feathers when, just a week ago, he wrote an op-ed for the campus newspaper, the Argus, on the subject of the Black Lives Matter movement.

Although supportive of the movement’s goals, Stascavage summed up his painfully balanced piece with this idea: “If vilification and denigration of the police force continues to be a significant portion of Black Lives Matter’s message, then I will not support the movement.”. . .Click link to read more . . .
