Wowsahs. What a difference ten days and the promise of rent freezes make when you’ve got a cute face, huh? Zohran Mamdani, the Socialist and Hamas-supporting New York Assembly member running in the Democratic primary for New York City mayor (I introduced you to him here), has pulled into the lead. Over former Governor Andrew...
They say that the No Kings rallies scheduled for Saturday are intended to be peaceful protests against Trump the tyrant. But then again, they are also claiming that the violence in Los Angeles and other cities is “peaceful,” so the word has as solid a meaning to them as the verb “is” had for Bill...
The most obvious thing in the world probably doesn’t qualify as “news” to most HotAir readers but it does to the folks over at NBC News. Today they have a story up about some of the far-left online accounts that are pushing for more violence and destruction from a group of people who have already...
Gutless Gavin Hides ‘First Amendment’ Speech Behind Copyright Claims to Shut Down Critics – HotAir
Perhaps my Javert analogy treated Gavin Newsom too kindly. This smells more like a Hunger GamesÃ/Panem setup, in which the ridiculously baroque elites strut on stage but fear the people so much that they arrange death matches on the streets to distract the peasantry. In fact, that may be uncomfortably on the nose, given the...
For the first time in decades, it appears the Iranians have really stepped in it, and the United Nations group tasked with monitoring the nuclear agreements has officially had enough. BREAKING: The U.N.’s 35-nation nuclear watchdog just declared Iran in breach—for the first time in 20 years—raising the prospect of Security Council action. Iran failed...

I am not a fan of calling every act of political opposition to government policies an “insurrection.” The word is overused, largely because the Democrats found the term useful in their fight against Donald Trump. In turn, Republicans have taken to using the term frequently as an implicit rebuttal–if a term gets overused it loses...
Has there ever been a governor more derelict in duty than Gavin Newsom? Or as arrogantly tiresome? Or with so much of that arrogance completely unjustified? Frankly, Newsom might want to fully transition into podcasting at this point. He clearly doesn’t to govern anything, especially his own tongue. He stood around while thousands of Angelenos...
Leftists have a love affair with political violence. It is in the DNA of the movement, which began during the French Revolution. Obviously, modern leftism is not the first political movement to USE violence–at some level, force and politics are intimately tied together, although stable regimes try to reserve the use of violence as much...
David Hogg has been creating problems for DNC chair Ken Martin since he got the job as vice chair back in February. By April Hogg was using his PAC Leaders We Deserve to support primary opponents against moderate Democrats. By mid-May the DNC’s Credentials Committee suggested Hogg and fellow vice chair  Malcolm Kenyatta were elected...
And I had such high hopes when I read this earlier. I thought, schmaybe, just schmaybe, cranky pants old Communist Karen had had herself an Elon-like moment of reflection amid all the flames and chaos. That Mayor Bass was ready to…well, not kiss, but perhaps bite her vicious forked tongue and make nice for the...
Brian Wilson has died at the age of 82. The announcement was made by Wilson’s family on his Instagram page.    Wilson wrote all of the Beach Boys’ many hits and was considered one of the great pop songwriters alongside the Beatles in the 1960s. Born in Inglewood, California, Brian Douglas Wilson formed the band—then...
In war, the first casualty is the truth. — Aeschylus Los Angeles, and soon every Blue city in America, is a war zone. Â Not nearly as bad a war zone as Gaza or Kyiv, but a war zone nonetheless. In this case, the violence is mostly a backdrop of a propaganda war, but then...
A fun leftover from yesterday deserves a little more analysis than just the lead entry in last night’s Final Word. Besides, the Adventures of Manbun McSoyboy probably eclipsed the real story related by Harry Enten in the latest polling on illegal immigration and the impact that Trump has had on the electorate. How do we...
