The conference kicks off today and every major Republican speaker has a giant target on his/her back — because every fame-seeker, troll, Michael Moore wannabe, [...]

Editor’s Note of the Day

By Michelle Malkin  •  January 18, 2012 02:36 PM

This was attached to the end of a nauseating Boston Globe article celebrating the amorous relations between Occupy protesters: Editor’s note: This story about relationships that began during Occupy Boston featured a man, Robert Stitham, who is a registered sex offender, according to state records.

New DNC Ad Portrays Newt Gingrich as Tea Party Godfather

By Doug Powers  •  December 11, 2011 11:59 AM

**Written by Doug Powers The DNC must know it’s a ridiculous claim, but they’ve got their reasons: Who worries the Democratic National Committee after Saturday night’s Republican debate? For months, the committee has been training all of its rhetorical fire on Mitt Romney, sending out hundreds of e-mails and producing dozens of anti-Romney videos. But [...]

By Michelle Malkin  •  December 1, 2011 09:12 AM

Here’s my Fox and Friends appearance this morning on the political news of the day. Longtime readers know I have always identified as a CONSERVATIVE first, not a Republican.

Who’s afraid of a Tea Party panel?, Part II: What the Fishwrap of Record didn’t tell you

By Michelle Malkin  •  November 18, 2011 02:05 PM

Photoshop: Tennyson Hayes There’s a curious little article in the New York Times about the contretemps I blogged yesterday over FreedomWorks’ Tea Party Debt Commission. The group was scheduled to discuss its report and findings at a meeting with Utah GOP Sen. Mike Lee at 2pm Eastern. At the last minute, someone pulled the plug. [...]

Nothing to see here, move along: Authorities say a Utah man has been arrested after throwing a Molotov cocktail at a Wells Fargo branch. Police responded early Thursday morning in West Jordan, about 15 miles south of Salt Lake City. A bank window was cracked, but authorities say the device didn’t explode. …The threat comes [...]

#N17 RAGEFEST: White House silence on Occupier chaos = complicity; Molotov Man arrested; Occupy Dallas cleared out; Mobbing Wall Street; “F**k the NYPD!”; NYSE is open

The real Cain scandal: Video cringe alert

By Michelle Malkin  •  November 14, 2011 04:56 PM

It has nothing to do with anything Gloria Allred has her hands in. It’s his continued lack of preparedness on, and familiarity with, basic domestic and foreign policy issues. Sorry, Cain fans. Tried to give him the benefit of the doubt. But like Rick Perry, Herman Cain is just not ready for prime time. The [...]

Occupy Jay-Z’s Wallet! Update: T-shirts removed after downtwinkles downpour

By Michelle Malkin  •  November 11, 2011 02:23 PM

Unhinged: Occupiers Gone Wild(er)

By Michelle Malkin  •  November 7, 2011 12:43 PM

Because vandalizing businesses, breaking windows, provoking police, shutting down ports, and attracting rapists, thieves, and molesters to their encampments didn’t cause enough havoc… *An Occupier is dangling right now from the Tappan Zee bridge with a black-helicopter banner in Rockland County, NY that reads “Rockland Executive Legislature Cover Up Retaliation.” *Occupy DC nuts used kids [...]

It’s 11:00pm Eastern and the Occupiers are swarming the streets of the Big Apple. Because they can.

Occupiers’ new mascot: Anti-tax crusader Robin Hood

We have entered a new phase of the endless Occupy Wall Street sleepover. After a month of provoking the police, generating mounds of trash, begging for free WiFi, port-o-potties, and food, teaching each other Kamp Alinsky hand signals, railing against Jews while holding up “Nazi Bankers” signs, grappling with pervs and rapists and thieves in [...]

So NOW it’s okay to report on Occupy Wall Street’s lack of racial diversity

By Michelle Malkin  •  October 17, 2011 03:11 PM

You just have to laugh. Heartily. When I noted that the Occupy Wall Street movement was filled with a sea of progressives of pallor and challenged the Tea Party-bashing media double standards on calling attention to the demographics two weeks ago, the occupiers filled my Twitter stream with profanities and racial epithets. Soros Monkeys tried [...]

Here are your 1 percent-ers: Obama’s bundlers

FOX News/Google GOP 2012 debate: The “Obama lite” label and venture socialism; Updated: Wrap-up, winners, losers

By Michelle Malkin  •  September 22, 2011 07:31 PM

Graphic via FoxNews.com The latest GOP 2012 debate starts at 9pm Eastern tonight on Fox news. GOP Rep. Thad McCotter dropped his quixotic, redundant bid today (really, how many pro-bailout, pro-health care entitlement expansion Republicans do we need in the race), so he’s off the schedule. Taking his place: Libertarian Gary Johnson. Yep, another quixotic, [...]

How Obama protects the Teamsters

By Michelle Malkin  •  September 7, 2011 01:41 AM

My column today sheds light on the longstanding bromance between Barack Obama and the Teamsters.

Beltway swamp creature Orrin Hatch expects coronation, looks ahead to 2018

By Michelle Malkin  •  August 31, 2011 10:25 AM

Some people really don’t know when it’s time to go. GOP Sen. Orrin Hatch, apparently still gloating over his machine’s knockout of former potential primary challenger Rep. Jason Chaffetz, told a Utah TV station that he wouldn’t rule out a 2018 bid for an 8th term in the U.S. Senate. Watch it here. Looks like [...]
