You wish. Big-spending former Utah Senator-turned-DC lobbyist (what else?) Bob Bennett was the first casualty of the Tea Party revolution. He surfaced on Fox Business Network earlier today to comment on the “worst Congress ever” and declared: “The Tea Party wave is receding and is not going to be as big a factor as it […]

Last week, I was honored to join thousands of conservatives at a rally in Dallas to support GOP Texas Senate candidate Ted Cruz, whose upstart campaign has lit a Tea Party fire in his state and across the country. The runoff is tomorrow and the latest PPP poll shows Cruz with big momentum: PPP’s final […]

Courage

Image via Zazzle Look, we all make mistakes. But the “real reporters” continue to maintain a superiority complex over the “just bloggers” that is wholly undeserved. This correction is now at the top of the ABC News report from earlier today in which a false Tea Party tie to the Aurora movie theater shooting was […]

If you’re looking for some good summer reading, here’s what I’ve got on my nightstand right now: FreedomWorks president Matt Kibbe’s new book, “Hostile Takeover.” Kibbe skewers Beltway barnacles in both parties for their big-government collusion — shedding light, for example, on both the Democrats’ Solyndra boondoggle and GOP eco-follies like GOP Sen. Orrin Hatch’s […]

Heh: The Dan Liljenquist for US Senate Campaign will be hosting a “debate” on Thursday, June 7 at 7:00pm. Since Senator Hatch has refused to participate in the debate, Liljenquist will go up against video clips of past Hatch statements. Thursday, June 7 7:00pm-8:30pm Sons of Utah Pioneers Building 3301 E. 2920 S. Salt Lake […]

As fiscal conservatives in Wisconsin and across the country celebrate the triumphs of GOP Gov. Scott Walker and Lt. Gov. Rebecca Kleefisch and progressive heads EXPLODE, my latest column looks back at the biggest losers in this nasty battle: The public school employee unions. They must be held accountable. Remember in November! *** Teacher’s unions […]

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 […]

In March, I asked for your help in supporting GOP Lt. Gov. Rebecca Kleefisch, whose unprecedented recall election battle has been overlooked by the Republican establishment. We were able to give her a considerable boost, but Big Labor is pouring a last-minute infusion of coerced dues-funding into the coffers of her challenger. His name is […]

“Imagine where we’d be…”

Many of my friends and readers are e-mailing me furiously tonight and the common sentiment is this: “I don’t get it.” “It” is this: Sarah Palin just officially threw her hat in the Utah ring on the Greta Van Susteren show and endorsed six-term Beltway barnacle Orrin Hatch over fresh-faced challenger/Tea Party-backed/acclaimed state legislator Dan […]

Turncoat former Pennsylvania Sen. Arlen Specter is on the Tea Party-bashing book tour circuit. So, naturally he showed up on MSNBC this weekend to nurse his lingering electoral wounds and speak up for the nation’s endangered RINOS, squishes, and Beltway barnacles. As I first noted on Twitter yesterday, Specter spoke — whined — to MSNBC […]

Extended mourning period

I was in Indianapolis over the weekend for the Tea Party/Freedomworks rally for Richard Mourdock — and the energy and excitement were palpable. Tonight’s the night to retire three-decade entrenched incumbent Dick Lugar. Twitter’s been buzzing all day with reports from grass-roots activists taking the fight to the GOP old guard — not just at […]

48-38

…you better come prepared with ammunition. Tonight on Hannity, Juan Williams tried to deflect attention from the endemic violence and anarchy of the Occupy movement by talking about the “racism in some parts of the Tea Party” and “jokes about monkeys and the president.” I asked him to name names. His response? 1) You find […]

Unmentionables

And they called the Tea Party terrorists…

Watch this teaser from EAGnews.org about their just-completed investigation into “the links between radical people and organizations and the ‘mainstream’ labor unions that have been the public face of the massive demonstrations, occupation of the capitol and recall efforts of 2011 and 2012. Our research shows there is a much broader agenda at play in […]

Tea Party activists who have closely watched GOP House Majority Leader Eric Cantor won’t be surprised by this crapweasel move against grass-roots GOP Senate challenger Richard Mourdock: DICK LUGAR AND HIS WASHINGTON ESTABLISHMENT ALLIES MOBILIZE DEMOCRATS IN GOP PRIMARY Lugar, Cantor-Allied Young Guns Network Encourage Hoosier Democrats To Vote For Lugar In GOP Primary On […]

This fringe chump is wielding a disturbing amount of political power to silence free-market, limited government voices. What are you doing about it? My column this week is a follow-up to last week’s piece on ALEC vs. the progressive mob/corporate appeasers. Be sure to read the entire column (plus my e-mail exchanges with several cowardly […]

The opposite of “novelty” Establishment Republicans are really getting unhinged by fresh, conservative voices — especially female and minority ones — who are on the rise. You’ll recall that earlier this month, Romney supporter Ann Coulter took to ABC News to put down Sarah Palin and Marco Rubio as “novelty” candidates. Yesterday at the Utah […]

Well, if you’ve been reading this blog and my column, the outcome of today’s Utah GOP convention will not be a surprise. Despite amassing a giant, $6 million campaign war chest and calling in every last chit with Republican friends and cronies, 77-year-old GOP Sen. Orrin Hatch will now face upstart conservative entrepreneur and renowned […]

Real Moms of the GOP by Michelle Malkin Creators Syndicate Copyright 2012 The authenticity of conservative women has always been under attack by radical orthodox feminists, but perhaps not as brazenly as by someone with such direct and frequent access to the corridors of the White House message machine as Hilary B. Rosen. The D.C. […]

As readers of this blog know, I helped spearhead one of the first Tea Party rallies of 2009 in Denver. Several hundred grass-roots conservative activists gathered on the steps of the state capitol on February 17, 2009 to protest President Obama’s visit to the city for the signing of the federal porkulus bill. I posted […]
