The Squad to Afghan Translators: Do Not Come

When Vice President Harris, in the midst of a migration surge left to the Biden Administration by the Trump administration's unforgiving decimation of a functioning, humane immigration system, told the people of the northern triangle countries 'Do not come' to flood the US-Mexico border because the new administration was working as diligently as it could to set up an asylum system that people could apply to from their home countries , the response from the alt-left's so-called Squad was derision bordering on outrage. Self-proclaimed progressive gatekeepers like Alexandria Ocasio Cortez and Ilhan Omar accused the Vice President of violating migrants' rights to seek asylum, just as Republicans were busy theatrically overplaying the border surge and blaming the Biden administration for it. Some alt-left, open-border groups went further, accusing the holder of the highest office ever reached an American born to two immigrant parents of being hypocritical. As it turns o

Nina Turner Hits the Panic Button

Nina Turner was flying high when she filed paperwork to run for Ohio's 11th Congressional district special election for the House seat formerly held by now-Secretary of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Marcia Fudge. Turner, a former Bernie Sanders and Jill Stein surrogate who used her position as the president of a Sanders-aligned dark money group to pad the pockets of her own cronies and members of the Sanders family , entered the 11th district race as the prohibitive favorite. Her highly visible roles at the two Sanders for President campaigns gave her near-universal name recognition, and money quickly started pouring into her coffers from far-left activists while she racked up early, high-profile, alt-left celebrity endorsements from the likes of Bernie Sanders himself, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio Cortez, Ro Khanna, and the like. Her campaign was so bullish about her chances that in June, they released an internal poll that they claimed showed Nina Turner had a massive, 35-point

White grievance dominates woke progressivism, even when its faces are people of color

Socialist writer Anand Giridharadas interviewed former Bernie Sanders national campaign co-chair Rep. Ro Khanna for his newsletter, and the product was an illuminating example of how badly white-centrism - and in particular anti-Black bias - pervades the institutional underpinnings of far-left media. In the interest of full disclosure, I am a constituent of Khanna's. Khanna and Giridharadas are both people of color and are both faces of the somewhat successful effort by the far left to put up a front that appears diverse. In fact, Giridharadas, Khanna, and I share a common heritage: we are all Indo-Americans. But despite this effort to create a shield with willing people of color, the modern American socialist movement is riddled with white grievance, class reductionism, and the view that people of color outside their white-centered circle - and especially Black people - are audiences to be persuaded rather than core constituencies whose concerns should be centered and lead follow

The Truth About Nina Turner's Record Is Catching Up With Her

The panic began last week , on Friday. Nina Turner, who is running for the special election to fill Ohio's 11th district to fill the House seat left vacated by former Rep. Marcia Fudge's elevation to President Biden's Secretary of Housing and Urban Development, was thought to have been the prohibitive favorite based on her name recognition alone, and her campaign acted like it. But the ramping up of local organizing and a slew of high-profile endorsements for her chief primary challenger Shontel Brown as well as the release of ads highlighting Turner's record of knifing the Democratic party made the Turner camp nervous. Nervous enough that they responded with their own attack ad against Brown and shoring up the visibility of Turner's own high-profile, alt-left endorsements by reiterating them on Twitter. On Monday, the Shontel Brown campaign released an internal poll showing that Brown has now surged to within 7 points of Turner, a far cry from the 30-35 lead Turne

Let’s Be Honest: There WAS Major Miscalculation on Afghanistan. By the Keyboard Commando Mainstream Press.

Since the beginning of the withdrawal of American troops under President Biden, and especially since the fall of Kabul to the swiftly advancing Taliban little more than a week ago, the media backlash to the exit and to President Biden has been swift, unforgiving, and relentless. The wide swath of beltway critics and "chief foreign correspondents" - most of whom cut their teeth in the field by cheerleading the Bush administration's military misadventures presented as 'shock and awe' action theater - has been loudly protesting President Biden for finally being the president with the courage to end a forever war, America's longest no less. Sure, they couch their drumbeat of neocon talking points in the pretense that they are merely criticizing the "logistics" of the withdrawal, not the policy, but that argument is as phony as a three-dollar bill. There are several tells that expose the media's disingenuousness. The beltway press's coverage has
