| Obama Gets Tough!, Europe Under Siege, Cruz/Kasich Tag Team Trump, McAuliffe Rewrites Virginia Constitution |
Obama Gets Tough! After nearly eight years of groveling at the feet of the world's worst tyrants, from the mullahs of Iran to the Castro brothers in Cuba, President Obama has finally located his spine and laid down the law. Unfortunately, the target of his ire was not the North Koreans or ISIS, but the dreaded Brits! Britain is in the middle of an important debate over whether to withdraw from the European Union. The press has dubbed the June vote "Brexit." |

Happy Earth Day! Today is Earth Day, and 170 countries are expected to sign the so-called "Paris Agreement" on climate change. The impact of this radical agenda is already being felt. |
| Obama's Travesty, ESPN -- Shilling For The Left, Tubman On The Twenty |
Obama's Travesty Barack Obama said he wanted to fundamentally transform America, and he has in many ways. From health care to energy policy, even the meaning of marriage -- much has changed since 2008. But he has also fundamentally transformed America's foreign policy -- largely to the benefit of our enemies. Under the Obama/Kerry foreign policy, the world has become unmoored. That is the conclusion of Lee Smith's latest column at The Weekly Standard. |
| New York Results, The Courts v. Common Sense |
New York Results: The Democrats Stung by a series of consecutive losses, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton did what she HAD to do last night: She scored a decisive victory over Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders. Sanders bet big that an upset in New York would upend the Democrat race. He reportedly outspent Clinton 2-to-1 on ads. |
| Biden: "Israel Is Moving In Wrong Direction", Cecile's "Colonel Sanders Moment"?, Putin Wins - Again |
Biden: "Israel Is Moving In Wrong Direction" Yesterday was another day when Israelis were reminded, not that they needed to be, of how merciless their enemies are. A bomb was detonated by Palestinian terrorists on a bus in Jerusalem, wounding 21 Israelis, including women and children. Also yesterday Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) uncovered another Hamas terror tunnel entering Israel from Gaza. These tunnels have one purpose - to provide a transit route into Israel for Hamas jihadists to use to murder Israeli civilians in their homes, schools and synagogues. |
| The Saudis & 9/11, Riyadh Threatens To Retaliate, The United States v. Texas |
The Saudis & 9/11 There is legislation pending in Congress that is creating an international uproar. The bill is called the Justice Against Sponsors of Terrorism Act and it would allow victims of terrorism "to sue foreign states and financial partners of terrorism." That seems reasonable enough. Who could possibly object? Well, our Saudi "friends" for starters and the Obama Administration, which is lobbying against the bill. |
| Tax Day, Washington Waste, The IRS |
Tax Day Today is April 15th. As you know, this is the day when most of us would normally file our taxes. This year, we get a short reprieve -- tax filings are not technically due until Monday, thanks to a holiday observed in the District of Columbia. Doesn't that make you feel better? In honor of Tax Day, I thought it would be "fun" to stick with the theme of taxes and how Big Government spends your money. |
| Putin Flexes Muscles, Two Years Later, ISIS Threatens Muslim Democrats |
Putin Flexes Muscles Russian President Vladimir Putin is flexing his muscles again. Two days this week Russian aircraft buzzed a U.S. destroyer conducting drills in the Baltic Sea. On Monday, two Russian SU-24 fighter jets made several "close-range and low altitude passes" over the USS Donald Cook as it was conducting deck landing helicopter drills. The Russian harassment continued the next day. |
| Islam & Anti-Semitism, Children Sue Over Climate Change |
Islam & Anti-Semitism Whenever the subject of Muslim immigration comes up, the debate often centers around whether we have an effective process to weed out potential jihadists. There is more than one example, more than one dead American, to suggest we do not. Earlier this week, we reported that many Muslim immigrants are not assimilating into British culture and often reject the values of Western Civilization. There is no reason to assume that Muslims coming to America are much different. An extensive survey of Muslims in England found that: |
| Boeing & The Mullahs, 2016 Updates, Obama's Influence |
Boeing & The Mullahs I was furious to see today's report that Boeing is in talks to sell commercial aircraft to the Islamic Republic of Iran. I suppose you can make the case that this will help American workers. But it also increases the chances that other Americans will have to die in the future in combat to stop an increasingly aggressive Iran. |
