She coldly called him “the guy” who “died a year ago.” (Video at The Right Scoop.) During the House contempt proceeding yesterday, several Democrats needed to read his name from pieces of […]

Real stories of the lie-way patrol

Would you expect anything less from our career-stonewaller Attorney General? Of course not: President Obama has granted an 11th-hour request by Eric Holder to exert executive privilege over Fast and Furious documents, a last-minute maneuver that appears unlikely to head off a contempt vote against the attorney general by Republicans in the House. The House […]

Standoff

Corruptocrat Eric Holder’s GOP Enablers by Michelle Malkin Creators Syndicate Copyright 2012 While calls for U.S. Attorney General Eric “Stonewall” Holder’s resignation grow and the House GOP gears up for a contempt vote next week, it’s worth remembering how we got into this mess.

It’s Time for Beltway Barnacle Orrin Hatch To Go by Michelle Malkin Creators Syndicate Copyright 2012 Six-term entrenched incumbent Sen. Orrin Hatch, R-Utah, is attacking his conservative challenger, Dan Liljenquist, over his alleged support for tax hikes in Washington. My sides ache. Liljenquist has never voted for federal tax hikes or massive entitlement spending or […]

An exclusive performance of Gitmo Jihad Theater opened over the weekend. What happened underscores why these military tribunals never, ever belonged in the civilian court system that Obama/Holder had pushed for (until running into the common-sense public opposition buzzsaw). The jihadists’ mockery of America — and more notably, the jihadists’ lawyers’ mockery — outraged 9/11 […]

The sting of denial

Photoshop source: Ed Driscoll The Year in Obama Scandals — and Scandal Deniers by Michelle Malkin Creators Syndicate Copyright 2011 With 2011 drawing to a close, it is time to account. As an early-and-often chronicler of Chicago-on-the-Potomac, I am amazed at the stubborn and clingy persistence of President Barack Obama’s snowblowers in the media. See […]

The ultimate tribute to murdered Border Patrol agent Brian Terry would be to evict Eric Holder and Barack Obama from Washington. Until then, this is a nice memorial from the House. Via GOP Rep. Darrell Issa: ISSA STATEMENT ON PASSAGE OF BRIAN A. TERRY MEMORIAL ACT FROM HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES WASHINGTON. D.C. – Representative Darrell […]

Since this blog was founded in 2005 and before that, since the publication of Invasion in 2002, I’ve covered the blood-boiling deaths of law enforcement and border security officials who put their lives on the front lines for us — only to lose them in part because of government negligence, malfeasance, and refusal to do […]

Holder, Blago, Richardson: Triangle of Sleaze by Michelle Malkin Creators Syndicate Copyright 2011 It was a rough week for the corruptocracy.

Rod Blagojevich, D-Ill., received a 14-year prison sentence for scheming to sell […]

The Eric Holder Resignation Bandwagon is growing, and apparently, Eric Holder is upset about it. Matthew Boyle at the Daily Caller has done nice work chronicling the EHRB movement on Capitol Hill. Holder chewed out the publication yesterday. No dice. Boyle reports today that GOP Sen. Johnny Isakson of Georgia is the first in the […]

The Accountability Charade by Michelle Malkin Creators Syndicate Copyright 2011 You can’t spell “accountability” without “A,” “C” and “T.” But in Washington, government officials routinely get away with “taking personal responsibility” by mouthing empty words devoid of action. Heads nod in collective agreement that mistakes were made. But heads never roll. The Obama administration has […]

Attorney General Eric Holder’s status as the most shameless corruptocrat in the Obama administration has now been RE-confirmed. Fox News (h/t Christian Adams) reports on the DOJ’s cynical exploitation of Border Patrol agent Brian Terry and his family that will leave you speechless (or using the most profane speech in your vocabulary): The Terrys watched […]
