It’s a Cult, and I’m Its Heretic – HotAir

In a sane world, this would be satire. Instead, Adam Rubenstein’s lengthy essay at The Atlantic attempts to inject sanity into a journalism industry that has turned into a partisan cult.  And when we say cult, we mean it — all the way to the finger-snapping struggle session Rubenstein, a former Opinion editor at the […]

Trump’s ‘Christian Nationalism’ Includes the Radical Idea of … Child Support – HotAir

Old and busted: “Ultra-MAGA!” New hotness: “Christian nationalism!” The mainstream media has chosen their narrative for the upcoming election season.

Senate Border Bill Heading for Doomed Vote – HotAir

How do we know the Senate’s attempt to pass a jumble of border-enforcement and foreign-aid measures is doomed to failure? Even the Senate Republicans who backed the bill this weekend have begun hitting reverse. After pushing hard for the deal this weekend, Mitch McConnell himself has reassessed the situation and has decided to back away […]

The Drive-by Smears of Clarence Thomas Never End – HotAir

Most Clarence Thomas hit pieces can’t stand up to perfunctory scrutiny. But the newest doesn’t even make any sense. In a new five-person-bylined article, anti-Supreme Court outfit ProPublica takes a decades-old offhand complaint the justice made about his salary and spins it into a nefarious conspiracy. In 2000, Thomas apparently groused about his pay to […]
