Michelle Malkin: Stop mental health data mining of our kids
No, no, no. Hell, no! That’s my response to the latest trial balloon floated by the White House to join with Silicon Valley on a creepy program monitoring Americans’ “neurobehavioral signs” to (purportedly) prevent gun violence. President Trump’s old friend, former NBC head Bob Wright, has been pushing an Orwellian...
Michelle Malkin: Who’s funding the wicked war on ICE?
All the gun control zealots out in full force this month have apparently gone to the beach. An alarming shooting took place at a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement office in San Antonio on Tuesday. Local media reported that “multiple shots were fired on two floors targeting ICE officials.” The...
Michelle Malkin: Freedom of assembly under fire
Do law-abiding American citizens still have the right to gather peacefully to discuss their ideas without fear of government censorship and retribution? In my adopted hometown of Colorado Springs, the answer is “no” if you believe in strict border control or question whether the U.S. can survive as a nation-state....
Michelle Malkin: Democratic donors’ sex-creep club
Well, well, well. “Follow the facts,” Democratic strategist Christine Pelosi advises fellow liberals in the wake of billionaire and high-flying political financier Jeffrey Epstein’s child sex trafficking indictment . Some of “our faves” could be implicated in the long-festering scandal, she warned, so it’s time to “let the chips fall...
Michelle Malkin: Unraveling of crafting & politics
Fun fact: I’ve been crocheting since I was 10., when my Tita Lisa taught me the magic of granny squares Fellow yarn nerds will understand the heavenly bliss of spending hours at Hobby Lobby or Walmart immersed in a sea of alpaca, mohair, angora, super bulky and super saver skeins...
Michelle Malkin: Exoneree, now a law grad, fights for justice
What would you do if you were falsely accused and convicted of a brutal rape and murder you didn’t commit? How would you handle a violent maximum-security prison, sentenced to 16 years to life, at age 17? And where would you go, what would you choose to do, if you...
Michelle Malkin: Harvard’s insatiable identity-politics cannibals
I have no love for left-wing, Hillary-promoting Hollywood producer and accused #MeToo villain Harvey Weinstein. Nor am I a fan of those who perpetrated the cop-bashing “Hands Up, Don’t Shoot” fiction involving social justice martyr Michael Brown. But I do strongly believe that a grave injustice has been committed by...
Michelle Malkin: Beware Soros-funded hijacking of US Census
“Are you a U.S. citizen?” Only in self-defeating, sovereignty-eroding America is the idea of asking whether people living in America are American citizens for the American census a matter of controversy. On Tuesday, the U.S. Supreme Court heard arguments on whether the Trump administration can include a citizenship question on...
Michelle Malkin: False accuser Shaun King’s record of harm
This weekend, “journalist, activist and humanitarian” Shaun King gave the keynote speech at the annual Innocence Network Conference in Atlanta. The theme of the event, whose attendees work to prevent and undo wrongful convictions, is “The Presumption of Innocence.” It was just three months ago that King recklessly exploited the...
Michelle Malkin: Handy history of fake noose
Is it any wonder that American news consumers are at the end of their ropes of patience with the “mainstream media”? Three weeks ago, there were troubling questions, contradictions and doubts about Trump-hating, attention-craving actor Jussie Smollett’s absurd hate crime claims. Few in the “professional” journalism herd paid heed. Now,...
Michelle Malkin: Oklahoma’s rape kit scandal
If you are puzzled by the nationwide rape-kit testing backlog, Oklahoma provides maddening insight on the bureaucratic forces that create intolerable inertia — and injustice. An estimated 225,000 rape kits have gone unprocessed across the country; more than 7,200 have been neglected in Oklahoma. Last month, a woman who reported...
Michelle Malkin: It’s time for illegal ingrates to go
Crying “hate” is a lazy way to debate. But in the Beltway, where honest discussion and vigorous deliberation are desperately needed, the rhetorical sloth is so thick you need a Big Foot circular saw to cut it. Take Minnesota Democratic Rep. Ilhan Omar, who thrust a Liberian immigrant, Linda Clark,...
Michelle Malkin: The Covington Rorschach test
Sometimes, a three-point celebration is just a three-point celebration. Sometimes, a pep rally is just a pep rally. Sometimes, a smile is just a smile. And sometimes, a hat is just a hat. Only among the most deranged partisans could a universal sports ritual, a common high school activity, a...
Michelle Malkin: Procter & Gamble’s toxic sanctimony
One of the world’s most successful brands committed ideological hara-kiri last week. Recognized around the world as a symbol of manly civility for more than a century, Gillette will now be remembered as the company that did itself in by sacrificing a massive consumer base at the altar of progressivism....
Michelle Malkin: Wall a monument for the people
Profligate politicians have never met a multibillion-dollar infrastructure project they didn’t like — except when it comes to President Trump’s border wall. Think about it. Boston’s Big Dig black hole, the nation’s most expensive highway project, burned through $25 billion and was plagued by deadly engineering incompetence, endless cost overruns,...
Michelle Malkin: Dems should say Cpl. Ronil Singh’s name
In the still of the last night of 2018, the silence of California Dems chilled the air and airwaves. Border wall opponent Sen. Kamala Harris tweeted three times between Christmas and New Year’s Eve bemoaning the plight of illegal immigrants and their children. But, not a peep was heard from...
