Vladimir Putin announced last night what most people assumed for the last couple of weeks — that the Metrojet charter carrying Russian tourists back home from Sharm el-Sheikh was brought down by a terrorist bomb. Putin called it the bloodiest act

There’s something of a disconnect going on out in Colorado this week, where Governor John Hickenlooper has apparently missed a few memos from his law enforcement community. The headline for the Governor was his rejection of the position taken by 26

Those calling for a law getting Wall Street out of politics are forgetting they don't have to accept corporate donations

There’s a big push on the Democratic side to try to get Wall Street out of politics. Bernie Sanders took to the Senate floor in August to rail against Citizens United and declare it was "legalized bribery." He then went to his campaign website in a

Yeah, I know, Norman “Daryl” Reedus claims that it isn’t. But c’mon. He’s not about to blab and spoil the big “Glenn’s alive” reveal that’s coming, even though it barely qualifies as a reveal at this

Skip to 6:00. I’m really surprised. Not that she’s favorable to Trump — they’ve been populist allies for awhile now — but that she’d make a clear choice when prompted. After all, her other ally, Ted Cruz, is not only

Obama allies quick to warn us not to overreact to that little incident in Paris

I watched the President’s comments from the G20 summit earlier today and listened with a growing sense of weariness and depression as he announced that he would double down on his current, er… for lack of a better word I’ll say

O'Malley: Hillary's 9/11 comment was "shameful"
11/16/2015 6:41:14 PM  Ed Morrissey
22 Comments
Point of order: One has to actually be capable of feeling shame in order to be shamed. Alisyn Camerota notes that the moment got a big round of applause from the audience, but Martin O’Malley says, “She had a lot of friends in the room

I’m seeing fans of Merkel’s open-borders policy on Twitter celebrating this as some sort of grand debunking of the “great right-wing freakout” about refugees. Okay, but … I don’t think this says what they think it

Rand Paul introduces bill to pause all Syrian immigration
11/16/2015 5:21:51 PM  Jazz Shaw

It was apparently a race to see who was going to do this first. After a number of governors have said, not only no but hell no to more Syrian “refugees” coming into their states, senators are working at putting such a ban – or at least

As the Daily Beast says, it’s not just Republicans. After more than a dozen GOP governors announced plans to block the relocation of Syrian refugees to their states, New Hampshire’s Democratic governor joined the group. Maggie Hassan’s

2013 e-mail from Huma Abedin: Hillary is "often confused"
11/16/2015 4:01:02 PM  Allahpundit
57 Comments
Via the Weekly Standard, this would explain her insane “Wall Street donates to me because of 9/11” remark at the debate on Saturday night. As well as the totality of America’s Libya policy between 2011 and 2012. In fairness to Hillary,

Is anyone really surprised? In what is quickly beginning to look like a bad case of copycat hysteria, yet another American campus of higher learning has produced an uprising. It’s taken root among students who find certain people to be

Feinstein: "Clear" that Obama's ISIS strategy is "insufficient"
11/16/2015 2:01:06 PM  Ed Morrissey

The ranking member of the Senate Intelligence Committee actually said this in a released statement on Saturday, but Barack Obama doubling down on failure today makes it especially noteworthy now. No one expects John McCain and Lindsey Graham to have

This makes two major endorsements for Cruz in Iowa, the first being talk-radio host Steve Deace back in August. Probably the biggest among Iowa social cons is Bob Vander Plaats, head of the Family Leader, which is hosting its presidential forum this

With the Thanksgiving break and the holiday season almost upon us (and the attendant lack of movement in election news which usually attends this period) I’m noticing some serious panic beginning to set in among fans of politics as usual. A pair of

Barack Obama is certainly committed to closing the detention facility at Guantanamo Bay, even if it’s still an unpopular idea with everyone else. With Congress repeatedly blocking Obama’s attempts at moving the detainees to US soil, the

If you’ve been following the health care news, Obamacare remains on the rocks. State exchanges are going broke and closing around the nation because there was a complete failure to anticipate the costs they would encounter with a flood of sick
