On Oct. 20, 2024, Donald Trump performed one of the finest acts of campaign trolling in the history of American politics by working the fryer and serving meals at a McDonald’s franchise in eastern Pennsylvania. “Now I have worked at McDonald’s,” he told reporters while wearing an employee apron and leaning out the drive-thru window. “I’ve now worked for 15 minutes more than Kamala, she never worked here.”
Trump’s ingenious gambit had the intended effect by highlighting the lack of evidence for Kamala Harris’s dubious claim that she “did fries and … the cashier” at a McDonald’s in California during the summer of 1983. It all started in August 2024, when the Washington Free Beacon published a bombshell report on the weird circumstances surrounding Harris’s alleged employment. To this day, there is still no credible evidence to suggest that Harris actually worked at McDonald’s—a detail she revealed for the first time while running for president in 2019.
It was a riot following this story last year, as no one in the DNC-MSM would admit that it began at a conservative Website (the Washington Free Beacon) before Trump’s appearance at a Pennsylvania McDonald’s forced it into becoming a universally seen story. Of course, unlike the Harris campaign, we do know conclusively that Trump really was employed by McDonald’s in his youth:
His company, Real America’s Voice (RAV), is the platform for “The Charlie Kirk Show” and other populist voices leading the “dare not ignore” charts. I was introduced to Robert after a mutual friend shared a column I wrote for RealClearPolitics, “Prove Charlie Right.”
When we spoke, his son Parker – his right-hand man and a rising star in the industry who effectively manages all of RAV’s programming – was by his side. Parker is just four years younger than Charlie Kirk. He was working in the family business at 15 years of age, chasing hurricanes for another Sigg property, WeatherNation – a politics-free outlet. As Sigg described it, “a take-an-umbrella or wear-sunscreen business.”
I wanted to talk to Robert Sigg about the behind-the-scenes war against his business, a campaign that includes a pernicious form of censorship through shadow advertising bans and Big Tech algorithm manipulation that leads to traffic starvation. At RealClearPolitics, we’ve faced some of the same subversive tactics.
RAV seeks to bring a unique voice to the marketplace of ideas. It’s one of the sources RealClearMedia’s properties draws from when presenting our across-the-spectrum report each day. Charlie Kirk, in fact, was published on RealClearPolitics the day of his assassination.
My firsthand experience is that RAV’s approach is not welcomed by those who control access to advertising and traffic. RealClear’s advertising score, in turn, gets dinged for aggregating RAV content – irrespective of the fact that we usually pair its offerings with liberal counter-programming.
As Glenn noted a couple of years ago, “Some People Don’t Like the New Ads. Sorry, the problem is that InstaPundit has been demonetized by Google, for unspecified ‘dangerous’ content. Between the overall trend of ad revenue decline — which hits everyone — and the trend of cutting advertising to right-leaning sites, and now this, ad revenue is down about 90% from its high, I’d estimate, and it may get worse.”
I went to England on a history vacation. It turned into an archaeological expedition, uncovering the bones of a once-great civilization.
All the tourist sites are still there. You can still see the changing of the guard at Buckingham Palace, recall the “V” for victory in the Churchill War Rooms or be inspired to pray at Westminster Abbey. But those are mere historical artifacts, like the pyramids of Egypt or the Acropolis in Greece. The ideals and most of the people who believe in them are long gone.
I was in London less than 24 hours before a terror attack killed two people in a Manchester synagogue. Police also killed the terrorist, a Syrian-born, 35-year-old immigrant named Jihad Al-Shamie, who they said had pledged himself to ISIS. Two innocent Jewish people are dead and a walking, talking metaphor was the cause. Jewish citizens admitted the assault was shocking but not surprising, given the rise of antisemitism in England.
As Mark Steyn warned 20 years ago: It’s the Demography, Stupid. “Most people reading this have strong stomachs, so let me lay it out as baldly as I can: Much of what we loosely call the Western world will not survive this century, and much of it will effectively disappear within our lifetimes, including many if not most Western European countries. There’ll probably still be a geographical area on the map marked as Italy or the Netherlands–probably–just as in Istanbul there’s still a building called St. Sophia’s Cathedral. But it’s not a cathedral; it’s merely a designation for a piece of real estate. Likewise, Italy and the Netherlands will merely be designations for real estate. The challenge for those who reckon Western civilization is on balance better than the alternatives is to figure out a way to save at least some parts of the West.”

Even co-host and Democrat donor Gayle King participated, saying she also thought, based on the title, Jean-Pierre would be unsparing in her criticisms of the administration, Instead, King noted, Jean-Pierre wrote a book claiming she never saw anything — even leading up to the fateful June 27, 2024 debate — that gave her pause about Biden’s abilities:
[P]eople said, why didn’t members of his inner circle speak up about what many believe was the apparent decline of — of Joe Biden and you said you’re a member of the inner circle and you never saw the decline. After that I wrote, how? You even write, Karine, you were on the plane with him going to the debate and you didn’t see anything. It is so hard to understand.
Jean-Pierre tried to have it both ways, claiming she “didn’t see him until after the debate even though I was on” Air Force One.

[Tony] Dokoupil cut in with this biting follow-up that blew holes in her fake move to become independent (which, if she lives in Virginia, doesn’t exist as there isn’t party registration): “Will you create a new party? Is that what you’re angling for?”
Jean-Pierre declared she’s not calling for a third party because “the history of third-party candidates in presidential” has never worked and she’s still “aligned with the values of the Democratic Party.”
Related: “Jean-Pierre revealed that she was leaving the Democratic Party in June while announcing her book. Before her high-profile White House role, she worked on multiple Democratic presidential campaigns and was an MSNBC political analyst,” and as her response to Dokoupil’s query illustrates, her talk of going “independent” was all a load of malarkey, to borrow one of her nominal former employer’s favorite words.

Last November 8th, on the Saturday after Election Day, one of the more bizarre post-scripts to Donald Trump’s re-election emerged in the form of a Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) decision to sideline one official accused of telling FEMA workers to “avoid homes advertising Trump” while canvassing for victims of Hurricane Milton in Florida. The Daily Wirespoke to multiple FEMA officials who produced screenshots of entries like “Trump sign, no contact per leadership”:
The most painful confirmation, however, came from then-FEMA Administrator Deanne Criswell, who testified after the election that the episode was an “isolated incident,” as well as “unacceptable” and “heartbreaking,” suggesting the problem was limited to one eventually-terminated Disaster Survivor Assistance crew leader named Marn’i Washington, adding: “I do not believe that this employee’s actions are indicative of any widespread cultural problems at FEMA.”
Washington didn’t take the CYA maneuver lying down. She made a series of aggressive media appearances, saying repeatedly “my orders come from my superior” from above when instructing subordinates to avoid homes that made some FEMA workers “uncomfortable” by featuring Trump paraphernalia:
It appears that he has not softened his stance over the past 12 months. In a new interview with The Telegraph, he was asked what it would take for him to join forces with Waters again. “Nothing,” he replied. “There is no possible way that I would do that.”
Going into further detail in the 2024 interview, Gilmour explained: “Nothing would make me share a stage with someone who thinks such treatment of women and the LGBT community is OK. On the other hand, I’d love to be back on stage with [Pink Floyd keyboardist] Rick Wright, who was one of the gentlest and most musically gifted people I’ve ever known.”
Gilmour’s wife Polly Samson has also been vocally outspoken against Waters’ politics, accusing him in 2023 of being “anti-Semitic to [his] rotten core” and “a Putin apologist and a lying, thieving, hypocritical, tax-avoiding, lip-synching, misogynistic, sick-with-envy, megalomaniac”. Gilmour re-shared Samson’s post, adding that “every word [is] demonstrably true”.
Pink Floyd co-founder and former frontman Roger Waters has been accused of sending an antisemitic email to his staffers proposing to write “Dirty k–e” on the inflatable pig habitually floated above his gigs.
London-based organization Campaign Against Antisemitism (CAA) has released disturbing emails and interviews in a documentary titled “The Dark Side of Roger Waters,” which uncovers a series of allegations of antisemitic behavior against the rocker.
In one email, the “Comfortably Numb” musician, 80, allegedly suggested “bombing” audiences with confetti in the shape of swastikas, Stars of David, and dollar signs.
“Hey Guys, Who’s going to make pig? Would it work to go out on the stuka truss? I imagine it black with crossed hammers logo as 1980, but covered with symbols from Good by blue sky,’crosses, stars of david( that’s king david not david gilmour) crescent and star, dollar signs, shell oil shell, etc and epithets,’my pig right or wrong’ ‘f–k you’ ‘no,f–k you’ ‘dirty k–e’ ‘follow the money’ ‘Scum?’ etc. Roger,” one alleged email, dated March 25, 2010, read.
Rachel Maddow on Friday played a video of a man in underwear banging his genitals against another man’s forehead in a gay bar.
This was done to explain to her MSNBC audience the derivation of the term “teabagger,” the sexually-charged double entendre that sadly became popular this spring and summer as Tea Parties swept the nation.
According to Maddow, “This is where “teabag” comes from. This is a clip from a 1998 film by John Waters that`s called ‘Pecker.'”
As the dancer in the fictional gay bar squats to bang his genitals against a customer’s forehead, the emcee played by Martha Plimpton says, “Hey, Larry, no teabagging. You know the rules. No balls on foreheads.”
The Hammerstein Ballroom in midtown Manhattan hums with the sound of walkers, canes, and Medicare-approved stability sneakers shuffling on the brocade carpet. Several busloads worth of gray-haired radicals are milling about the historic auditorium. Some have shelled out thousands of dollars to be here for a chance to see their favorite MSNBC personalities denounce Donald Trump in person. Liquor drinks are extra. The exorbitantly priced bar opens at 10:30 a.m. We’re going to need it.
“MSNBC Live ’25: This Is Who We Are” is the failing left-wing network’s second live offering in as many years. Last year’s event was largely focused on how to stop Trump from winning the election and canceling democracy. This year’s summit is even more existential, if you can believe it. Two weeks after Trump’s decisive victory in 2024, MSNBC parent company Comcast announced it was cutting ties with the network. It will soon be required to ditch its NBC affiliation and rebrand as MS NOW (My Source for News, Opinion, and the World). The name change becomes official next month, but they’ve kept the old one so as not to confuse their elderly fans.
Other aspects of the event planning—spearheaded by Luke Russert, the boy-faced nepo baby—were less accommodating to a demographic that hates inconvenience and loves to complain. More than a few mobility-challenged attendees griped about having to walk down a flight of stairs to use the bathroom. Ushers were overheard discussing how to minimize injuries.
Social media users also immediately noticed the new name’s unfortunate association with the disease multiple sclerosis. “Sounds like a medical issue,” one user on X said about MS NOW. On Monday, “multiple sclerosis” was the No. 4 trending topic on X in the U.S.
In addition, some people read the “MS NOW” name as “Ms. Now.” And that continues “the problem they’ve faced since inception (that the ‘MS’ was an indicator that this was a network designed for women viewers ),” former MSNBC anchor Keith Olbermann wrote in an email — an issue that “has now been doubled (‘NOW? Like the National Organization For Women?’).” Olbermann, who left MSNBC in 2011, claimed he told the network to change its name “when I got there in 1997… I’m glad to see that my interoffice mail envelope finally got to the 52nd floor of 30 Rock.”
Others inevitably compared the MSNBC-MS NOW renaming to Warner Bros. Discovery’s switch from HBO Max to Max and then back to HBO Max. “After MS Now will be MS Go, and then MS Max, and then just MS,” quipped Washington Post media reporter Scott Nover.
The popular LizaMinnelliOutlives account on X duly noted that Minnelli, 79, has outlived the MSNBC name.
Meanwhile, it isn’t clear what MS NOW’s web destination will be at this point. The current website at “msnow.com” includes the text “Motorized Snow vehicles (SnowMobile)” and says in Korean: “A snowmobile is a vehicle that travels on snow. Equipped with skis and tracked wheels, it is used for winter recreation and transportation. Also known as a motor sled or snow machine. In Korea, it is used for maintenance, rescue operations, and cargo transport at ski resorts and other locations.”
If you type “ms-now.com” into your browser, you are redirected to meal-delivery service Marley Spoon, which is affiliated with Martha Stewart.
It was quite a weekend for MSNBC. Are they trying to get all the craziness out of their systems as the iceberg hoves into view?
Why would a socialist-communist paradise require the degradation of womankind in order to be able to pay for…Stuff?
Mamdani, New York City’s Mayoral frontrunner, is in favor of de-criminalizing it, which is the same as legalizing what he and others call “sex work.” In my view, “sex work” is not work. It is violence against the girls and women and against the boys and men who are trafficked into it, either due to extreme parental abuse, psychiatric fragility, enormous poverty, and a complete lack of economic alternatives. “Working” as a prostitute, is like working in a plutonium factory and being assured of a very short shelf life. Although there are rare exceptions, I do not see women of wealth choosing this so-called job.
Why would a socialist communist paradise be so impoverished that it would have to cater to male lust and damn its most vulnerable victims? Won’t there be employment for everyone? If not, why not?
Historically, Soviet Russia, communist China, and communist Cuba all viewed it as a capitalist and “foreign” practice and outlawed it. In the Soviet and Cuban cases, that practice returned, because the state needed tourist dollars to pay for their gulags, torture chambers, and dachas. In China’s case, it slowly returned as an illegal and “invisible” activity but one needed in order for the prostituted to earn better money and/or in order to obtain privileges from their leaders.
Jewish women have had to put up with enough monstrous bullying and belittling from the world generally over the past two years (BELIEVE ALL WOMEN – UNLESS THEY’RE JEWISH, as the saying has it). And now the poison of anti-Semitism seems to have trickled into the very heart of a conference where women of all races and belief systems should feel safe. But sadly, we’ve seen before that Islam and diversity, though often used in tandem by politicians and other clueless scolds, are often strangers to each other. Here at the FiLiA conference was evidence of a strange beast – here was Feminists for Islam.
Those of you of a certain vintage, who as children saw the 1967 film Dr Dolittle starring Rex Harrison, might recall an unfortunate critter called the ‘pushmi-pullyu’, a creation of author Hugh Lofting, which had two heads on opposing ends of its body. As you can imagine, the creature looked miffed a lot of the time. Little wonder then that Wiktionary defines the colloquial use of the term as ‘a person who behaves in a conflicting or contradictory manner’. Feminists for Islam are such P-Ps that they make Queers for Palestine seem semi-sane.
As Mark Steyn has written, “our tolerance of our own tolerance is making us intolerant of other people’s intolerance, which is intolerable. And, unlikely as it sounds, this has now become the highest, most rarefied form of multiculturalism. So you’re nice to gays and the Inuit? Big deal. Anyone can be tolerant of fellows like that, but tolerance of intolerance gives an even more intense frisson of pleasure to the multiculti masochists.”

Fortunately, unlike what the left allows the other side of aisle, thoughtful conservatives create an extremely safe space in which our elders can relieve the youthful exuberance of their Vietnam-era salad days:
They get to hold their protests without a care in the world. No snipers on buildings shooting at them. No masked thugs attacking them. Every media outlet fawning over them. Irony levels fit for a King.
DeNiro offered a prediction during MSNBC News’s The Weekend on Sunday that President Donald Trump “will not want to leave” his position when he reaches his term limit in 2028*.
“[Trump] set it up with, I guess, he’s the Goebbels of the Cabinet, Stephen Miller. He’s a Nazi. Yes, he is, and he’s Jewish and he should be ashamed of himself,” DeNiro said.
This television segment from DeNiro comes after other celebrities have called Miller a white supremacist, among other names. The reference to Goebbels followed Miller’s speech at the late conservative activist Charlie Kirk’s memorial service, which critics online compared to a speech Goebbels made in 1932.
As Neal Pollack wrote in Spectator World last month, “Do people really think that Trump won’t leave office after his term is over? He’ll be 82. He’s going to leave. Just like the weather in Chicago, if you don’t like the President, wait a minute.”
Tolkien’s description of Orthanc, from the road to Isengard, comes to mind at the first sight of the Obama Presidential Center in Chicago. You can almost picture Saruman standing atop the tower, sending his legions of Uruk-hai to war against Rohan at the fortress of Helm’s Deep.
Perhaps you prefer science fiction, and you picture Darth Sidious laughing as he informs a shocked Luke Skywalker that this Death Star is a fully operational battle station.
Be it Middle Earth or a galaxy far, far away, the dystopian-looking chunk of rock that bears the former president’s name seems to remind everyone who sees it of something, and none of it is very good.
Except for Barry, he really seems to like the place. He recently took to social media to brag a little about the progress being made, posting a video of himself, complete with a hard hat and safety glasses, overseeing the construction. Politicians do love to cosplay, don’t they?

And with his new presidential library that’s not really a presidential library, the Age of Obama comes full circle. His campaign began in 2007 when his operatives dropped an viral video that cast Hillary Clinton in the role of Big Brother from Ridley Scott’s legendary Super Bowl 1984-inspired Apple ad:
First of all they’re calling it a “center,” not a library, understandable given the woeful illiteracy rate of his more passionate followers. https://t.co/Obs0ZY0sUA
Anti-woke CBS News editor-in-chief Bari Weiss left the 60 Minutes team stunned when she asked them to consider why viewers think their coverage is slanted.
The self-proclaimed centrist, 41, who has made political neutrality a focal point of her plans for the network, hit journalists with the seven-word question during a private Tuesday meeting, The New York Times reported.
‘Why does the country think you’re biased?’ she asked – leaving the staff and stars of the country’s top news program baffled and unable to respond.
Weiss’s question was awkward, as three anonymous sources told the newspaper.
The 60 Minutes reporters – including standouts Anderson Cooper, who doubles as a long-time CNN anchor, and Lesley Stahl – see themselves as impartial, the insiders said.
But all journalism is biased – there’s no such thing as “objectivity;” it’s a construct from a time when media consisted of three radio networks whose frequencies were licensed and regulated by the FCC, and a handful of national wire services feeding articles to local newspapers. Since the news consumer now has a seemingly endless amount of sources to choose from, instead of pretending “they have no biases,” CBS would be far better off telling their viewers what exactly their biases are. Let the viewers know which party most of its journalists root for, what they think about free markets, America versus other nations, their take on the Middle East, etc.
GREAT MOMENTS IN PROJECTION: “Michelle Goldberg told a Harvard audience that the New York Times ‘lacks pro-Trump columnists because it has had a hard time finding people who are ‘pro-Trump, honest, and not racist.’’”
Yes, I can see how that would be difficult, particularly when you work for a newspaper whose then-publisher “told a crowd of people that alienating older white male readers means ‘we’re doing something right,’” in November of 1991, whose newsroom’s atmosphere was summarized as “moderate white men should die,” and starting in 2019, went all-out to promote “the 1619 Project:”
As part of his review of the 1619 controversy as it stood through the summer of 2020, [Peter] Wood gives us a portrait of 1619’s creator, Nikole Hannah-Jones. A woman who styles herself “the Beyoncé of journalism” acts the part of a diva, and more. Treated by the Times, according to Wood, as “exempt from ordinary forms of accountability,” Hannah-Jones didn’t deign to reply to even the most respectful and serious scholarly criticism of her project. She booked herself instead into speaking venues where she was greeted as hero, prophet, or genius. And of course, Hannah-Jones was showered with accolades, including the Pulitzer Prize. Rudely putting down critics, falsely denying that she’d said things she had demonstrably said, deleting tweets that showed her in a bad light, the behavior that eventually destroyed Hannah-Jones’s credibility was in evidence well before the final collapse. And it was all encouraged by the Times, which treated Hannah-Jones with kid gloves and ignored her critics until its hand was forced. Even when Times magazine editor Jake Silverstein finally answered a critical letter from twelve historians (not the first such letter), that letter’s text was never printed in the magazine.
Something larger is at stake here. To all appearances, Hannah-Jones is a grown-up “cry-bully.” She embodies the movement of campus snowflake culture into the “real world” (if the Times newsroom can be called that). In the old days, Hannah-Jones might have been dubbed a “spoiled child.” Pampered, self-important, lashing out in fury when challenged, she would appear to be a product of the modern double-standard.
In response, this person says he’s willing to try to overcome his fears and take up the challenge:
I don’t know that much about Mr. Walsh’s oeuvre, but he seems like an earnest young chap and declares himself to be, “a moderate, who’s down the middle…I’m more of a, you know, I’m like a Bill Kristol Republican. I’m more of a Michael Steele, Colin Powell-type Republican. That’s my thing. I’m an Adam Kinzinger Republican, you know.” All of which sounds like a perfect fit to be a guest of the long-running ABC News program. Give ‘em a shot, Joy and Whoopi!
START YOUR TAPE RIGHT NOW, because I’m about to tell you the truth. And eff you if you can’t handle the truth. This version of Robert De Niro, intellectually, analytically, is the best De Niro ever. Not a close second, and I’ve known him for years. Paulie Cicero has known him for 50 years. If it weren’t the truth, I wouldn’t say it:
In a minutes-long strike Sunday inside the world’s most-visited museum, thieves rode a basket lift up the Louvre ’s facade, forced a window, smashed display cases and fled with priceless Napoleonic jewels, officials said.
The daylight heist about 30 minutes after opening, with visitors already inside, was among the highest-profile museum thefts in living memory and comes as staff complained that crowding and thin staffing are straining security.
The theft unfolded just 250 meters (270 yards) from the Mona Lisa, in what Culture Minister Rachida Dati described as a professional “four-minute operation.”
One object was later found outside the museum, Dati said. French media identified it as the emerald-set imperial crown of Napoleon III’s wife, Empress Eugénie, containing more than 1,300 diamonds. It was reportedly recovered broken.
Images from the scene showed confused tourists being steered out of the glass pyramid and adjoining courtyards as officers closed nearby streets along the Seine. No one was hurt.
Also visible was a lift braced to the Seine-facing facade near a construction zone, since removed — the thieves’ entry point and, observers said, a striking vulnerability for a palace-museum.
Sens. Bernie Sanders (I., Vt.) and Chris Murphy (D., Conn.) passionately defended the anti-Trump No Kings rally in Washington, D.C., this weekend against allegations that it will attract Hamas sympathizers and other far-left radicals. But one of the senators’ fellow speakers has praised Hamas’s “resistance” against Israel, cheered the attempted assassination of President Donald Trump, referred to conservative activist Charlie Kirk as a “bitch” after his assassination last month, and expressed her desire for “the west” to “fall.”
Sanders pushed back earlier this week against House Speaker Mike Johnson (R., La.), who predicted that “Hamas supporters,” “antifa types,” and “Marxists” will be prevalent at the event. In a video posted to X, Sanders said No Kings is “not a ‘hate America’ rally.”
“Quite the contrary; it is a love America rally,” said Sanders.
They like Ike! Well, Ike Turner at least; back during the Dubya era, Ace of Spades once defined the left’s love of country as being from the “Ike Turner school of patriotism:” “Those who love America show it by denigrating and beating the shit out of her at every opportunity.”
UPDATE: And speaking of the Ike Turner school of patriotism:
On the other hand, it’s awfully subversive of whoever suggested “Imagine” be played at the No Kings (well, Some Kings) rally, considering that near the end of his tragically short life, Lennon (allegedly) supported an earlier Hitler himself: Working class hero? John Lennon ‘was closet conservative and fan of Reagan.’ “But by the time he died, John Lennon was a closet conservative embarrassed by his radical past, according to his former personal assistant. Fred Seaman claims that the former Beatle was a fan of Ronald Reagan, who went on to become America’s Republican president in 1981 and forged a close political alliance with Margaret Thatcher. ‘John, basically, made it very clear that if he were an American he would vote for Reagan because he was really sour on [Democrat] Jimmy Carter,’ he says in a documentary film.”
Because of Lennon’s murder, and because so much footage exists of him recording the Imagine album in 1971, his radical chic image has become freeze-dried. But it was simply another phase for Lennon, in-between the psychedelia of the mid-‘60s, the booze-fueled “lost weekend” of the mid-‘70s, his house husband phase raising his son Sean few years later, and his return to recording near the end of the ‘70s.
As Lennon himself said in one his last interviews, “I dabbled in politics in the late 1960s and 1970s, more out of guilt than anything. Guilt for being rich and guilt thinking that perhaps love and peace isn’t enough and you have to go and get shot or something, or get punched in the face to prove I’m one of the people. I was doing it against my instincts.”
