  • Jaczko the Jerk: Harry Reid's Sexist Crony Gets the Boot

    Michelle Malkin - Wed, May 23, 2012

    The embattled chair of the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission resigned this week. It's a victory for Republican oversight on Capitol Hill, women and sound science. But it's also a lesson in the futility of Bush-era bipartisanship. When you cut deals with bullies, it's a timeless and bitter recipe for more bullying.

  • How the Gay-Marriage Mob Slimed Manny Pacquiao

    Michelle Malkin - Fri, May 18, 2012

    Boxing champion Manny Pacquiao is guilty — of being true to his Catholic faith. The gay-marriage mob is guilty — of the very ugly bigotry it claims to abhor. And left-wing media outlets are guilty — of stoking false narratives that shamelessly demonize religion in the name of compassion. More »How the Gay-Marriage Mob Slimed Manny Pacquiao

  • Obamacare's Patient-Dumping, Privacy-Meddling Scheme

    Michelle Malkin - Wed, May 16, 2012

    The stench of Chicago cronyism over the White House just got fouler. Inhale this: More »Obamacare's Patient-Dumping, Privacy-Meddling Scheme

  • White House Lied, Jobs Died

    Michelle Malkin - Fri, May 11, 2012

    While the White House and its media water-carriers try to distract the American public with gay-marriage talk and half-century-old tales of Mitt Romney's prep school pranks, the inconvenient truth remains: President Obama is responsible for perpetrating jaw-dropping, job-killing scientific fraud. And his minions are still trying to cover it up. More »White House Lied, Jobs Died

  • Scytl: Voter Fraud Facts and Fiction

    Michelle Malkin - Wed, May 9, 2012

    With six months until Election Day, conspiracy theories are percolating on the Internet like bubbling mud pots at Yellowstone: Left-wing billionaire George Soros is going to rig the election for Barack Obama. Foreigners will oversee the nation's entire vote-counting system. The fix is in, and all is lost. More »Scytl: Voter Fraud Facts and Fiction

  • Mamas, Don't Let Your Babies Grow Up To Be "Julia"

    Michelle Malkin - Fri, May 4, 2012

    Quick, hide under the covers. The nation's storyteller, Barack Obama, unveiled a frightening new fable on the Internet intended to scare women away from supporting fiscal conservatives in November. But as is increasingly common with Obama's social media propaganda initiatives, "The Life of Julia" immediately flopped. More »Mamas, Don't Let Your Babies Grow Up To Be "Julia"

  • “Sacaja-Whiner”: Elizabeth Warren and the Oppression Olympics

    Michelle Malkin - Wed, May 2, 2012

    Elizabeth Warren is the Harvard law professor running for Senate in Massachusetts as a Democratic populist-progressive champion. But don't call her "Elizabeth Warren." Call her "Pinocchio-hontas," "Chief Full-of-Lies," "Running Joke" or "Sacaja-whiner." More »“Sacaja-Whiner”: Elizabeth Warren and the Oppression Olympics

  • “Crucify Them”: The Obama Way

    Michelle Malkin - Fri, Apr 27, 2012

    One of President Obama's radical eco-bureaucrats has apologized for confirming an indelible truth: This White House treats politically incorrect private industries as public enemies who deserve regulatory death sentences. More »“Crucify Them”: The Obama Way

  • Conservative Consumers: Stand Your Ground

    Michelle Malkin - Wed, Apr 25, 2012

    Who is Rashad Robinson? And why has his fringe, race-baiting organization been able to pressure several major corporations into abandoning a pro-limited-government legislative association — all for a few cheap social-justice brownie points? More »Conservative Consumers: Stand Your Ground

  • No More “Mr. Obama Is a Nice Guy”

    Michelle Malkin - Fri, Apr 20, 2012

    There is a reflexive desire among a certain species of moderate Republicans to be perceived as "civil" by liberal opponents who believe that the mere existence of free-market, limited-government conservatism is an indecent affront to humankind. All aboard the U.S.S. Lost Cause. More »No More “Mr. Obama Is a Nice Guy”

  • The Real GSA Scandal: Job-Killing Big Labor Payoffs

    Michelle Malkin - Wed, Apr 18, 2012

    Stop the presses: Big-spending Democrats are finally up in arms over a federal boondoggle. Details of the U.S. General Services Administration bacchanalia get worse by the day. We've graduated from overpriced breakfasts in Vegas, friends-and-family junkets galore and in-house videos mocking their own profligacy to extravagant bonuses, alleged kickbacks, obstructionism and bribes.

  • Real Moms of the GOP vs. White House SOP

    Michelle Malkin - Fri, Apr 13, 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. More »Real Moms of the GOP vs. White House SOP

  • Don't Do Business with Progressive Appeasers

    Michelle Malkin - Wed, Apr 11, 2012

    Let's stipulate: Activists on the left are free to exercise their rights of speech and assembly to boycott businesses whose politics they oppose. Conversely, activists on the right are free to exercise the power of their pocketbooks and refrain from supporting businesses that shun their values.

  • Marion Barry and the Left's Hatred of Asian Entrepreneurs

    Michelle Malkin - Fri, Apr 6, 2012

    Marion Barry's mouth set him up. The disgraced former mayor of Washington, D.C., who was caught on tape in a 1987 crack cocaine sting, made an even bigger disgrace of himself and his city on Tuesday. Celebrating a Democratic primary victory, the city councilman attacked small businesses owned by "Asians" in his district. Then the race-baiting clown doubled down.

  • The Democrats' Election Forgery Racket

    Michelle Malkin - Wed, Apr 4, 2012

    A few weeks ago, Obama senior adviser and seasoned Chicago operative David Axelrod joked on MSNBC about election corruption. Asked whether "vote early and often" scams had come to an end in his shady hometown, Axelrod snarked: "Well, certainly on the air." Yuk, yuk, yuk. More »The Democrats' Election Forgery Racket

  • Eco-Scams Are as Easy as “A123”

    Michelle Malkin - Fri, Mar 30, 2012

    While President Obama was busy lambasting Big Oil tax breaks on Thursday, yet another one of his environmental welfare recipients (the very kind he wants to redistribute oil subsidies to) was teetering on the edge of bankruptcy. Who needs to win the Mega Millions lottery? Start a pie-in-the-sky eco-boondoggle, and a half-billion-dollar jackpot ripe for squandering is all yours! More »Eco-Scams Are as Easy as “A123”

  • The War on Wisconsin

    Michelle Malkin - Wed, Mar 28, 2012

    Now is the time for all good tea partiers to come to the aid of Wisconsin. Fiscally conservative leaders in the Badger State are under coordinated siege from Big Labor, the White House, the liberal media and the judiciary. The yearlong campaign of union thuggery, family harassment and intimidation of Republican donors and businesses is about to escalate even further. This is the price the Right pays for doing the right thing. More »The War on Wisconsin

  • The Obamacare Hydra

    Michelle Malkin - Fri, Mar 23, 2012

    The Hydra was a mythical swamp beast whose multiple heads grew back after being severed. Obamacare is a real Washington monster whose countless hidden bureaucracies keep sprouting forth even after they're rooted out. As soon as combatants lop off one of the law's unconstitutional agencies, another takes its place. More »The Obamacare Hydra

  • Obama's Algae Racket

    Michelle Malkin - Wed, Mar 21, 2012

    Pond scum stinks. And so do the Obama administration's enormous, taxpayer-funded "investments" in politically connected biofuel companies. While the president embarks on a green rehabilitation tour this week to quell growing public outrage about big green boondoggles, the White House continues to cultivate a cozy algae racket.

  • The Myth of “Middle-Class” Uncle Joe

    Michelle Malkin - Fri, Mar 16, 2012

    This has got to be the bazooka of all Joe Biden blowhardisms. The nation's vice campaigner in chief went on the attack against Republicans this week, clad in full populist armor. "These guys don't have a sense of the average folks out there," said The Everyman. "They don't know what it means to be middle class." But who was his audience?

  • What's the Matter with Soledad O'Brien?

    Michelle Malkin - Wed, Mar 14, 2012

    CNN's Soledad O'Brien isn't used to criticism. In the world of media elites, she's a beloved figure and an award-winning news anchor. But last week, she revealed her true, decidedly non-neutral colors. And she's not happy about the hoi polloi questioning her hallowed journalistic objectivity.

    There's no escaping Solyndra Syndrome. Here in my home state of Colorado, citizen journalists have uncovered our own gaping government green loan sinkhole. The stench of Chicago-on-the-Potomac is fouling the fresh Rocky Mountain air. More »Colorado's Own Green Loan Sinkhole

  • The War on Conservative Women

    Michelle Malkin - Wed, Mar 7, 2012

    I'm sorry Rush Limbaugh called 30-year-old Georgetown law student Sandra Fluke a "slut." She's really just another professional femme-a-gogue helping to manufacture a false narrative about the GOP "war on women." I'm sorry the civility police now have an opening to demonize the entire right based on one radio comment — because it's the progressive left in this country that has viciously and systematically slimed female conservatives for their beliefs.

  • Obama's Campaign Bully Brigade Rides Again

    Michelle Malkin - Fri, Mar 2, 2012

    They're baaaaaaack. Barack Obama's election-year goon squad kicked into high gear this week by kicking the president's fiercest opponents in the teeth and targeting their pocketbooks. Returning to bully business as usual, the Obama campaign launched a brazen salvo against two prominent conservative critics and their legions of private citizen donors.

  • The Autoworkers Obama Left Behind

    Michelle Malkin - Wed, Feb 29, 2012

    The White House fairy tale about the Happily Ever After Auto Bailout is missing a crucial, bloody page. While President Obama bragged about "standing by American workers" at a rowdy United Auto Workers meeting Tuesday, he failed to acknowledge how the Chicago-style deal threw tens of thousands of nonunion autoworkers under the bus.

  • Taxing Medical Progress to Death

    Michelle Malkin - Mon, Feb 27, 2012

    Two years ago this month, as public debate over Obamacare raged, former President Bill Clinton rushed to the hospital because of a heart condition. He immediately underwent a procedure to place two stents in one of his coronary arteries. It was a timely reminder about the dangers of stifling private-sector medical innovation. No one listened.

  • A Tea Party Senate Takeover

    Michelle Malkin - Wed, Feb 15, 2012

    The tea party isn't dead. It's just looking down ballot. While fiscal conservatives remain split over the GOP presidential candidates, grassroots activists are coalescing around a stellar slate of limited-government candidates looking to reinforce and reenergize the right in Washington.

    Michelle Malkin - Fri, Feb 10, 2012

  • Jim Moran, Racist Pig

    Michelle Malkin - Fri, Feb 3, 2012

    Congressman Jim Moran is an old white Democrat from Virginia who thinks he can judge whether we minority conservatives are acting sufficiently non-white enough. Moran's an inveterate bully, a brawler, a crook and a bigot. And not one of his civility-preaching liberal colleagues has the courage to call him out. More »Jim Moran, Racist Pig

  • First, They Came for the Catholics

    Michelle Malkin - Wed, Feb 1, 2012

    President Obama and his radical feminist enforcers have had it in for Catholic medical providers from the get-go.

    So, it turns out that the cool cat billed as "No Drama Obama" by his sycophants is actually quite the drama queen.

You'll be hearing much more from the White House about the "wealthy few" who aren't paying their "fair share" as Obama's re-election campaign doubles down on class-war demagoguery.

    Well, isn't this rich? And I do mean rich.

  • Obama's “Razist” Lobbyist Moves Up

    Michelle Malkin - Fri, Jan 13, 2012

  • Romney and McCain: The GOP Frenemies' Club

    Michael Corleone said to "keep your friends close, but your enemies closer." But what, pray tell, do we do with our frenemies? This is the awful election-year quandary of movement conservatives. And everything you need to know about our heartache can be summed up in one image: 2008 presidential election loser John McCain and Mitt Romney together on the campaign trail.

  • Obama's Super-Czar Is on the Loose

    Michelle Malkin - Fri, Jan 6, 2012

    Here is the operating motto of the Obama White House: "So let it be written, so let it be done!" Like Yul Brynner's Pharaoh Ramses character in Cecil B. DeMille's "The Ten Commandments," the demander in chief stands with arms akimbo issuing daily edicts to his constitution-subverting minions with an imperious wave of his hand. His entourage of insatiable usurpers never rests. More »Obama's Super-Czar Is on the Loose

    As a rueful Queen Elizabeth once said of a particularly rough year for the royal family, 2011 is "not a year on which" Queen Nancy Pelosi "shall look back with undiluted pleasure."
