The Huffington Post published one of the weirdest articles ever written and, thankfully, the Internet noticed. As first pointed out by the Daily Caller, author Priscilla Frank wrote an article titled “Sensual Photos Shatter the Idea That Strong Men Can’t Be Vulnerable” which showed a bunch of pictures of shirtless (one even naked) men striking poses in the woods or by a river or whatever…

So…this happened. In their one and only debate for the Senate seat in California, Rep. Loretta Sanchez closed out her debate performance by -- and I kid you not -- “dabbing” in front of the audience and leaving everyone in bewilderment. Her opponent, state Attorney General Kamala Harris, could only look on and laugh. (For those who don't know, "dabbing" is a dance move made popular by NFL star…

Get your lockboxes ready, because Al Gore is returning to the campaigning circuit once again! In a move announced early this week, the Clinton campaign announced they would be sending out the former vice president in an effort to -- get this -- appeal to millennial voters. Yep. The politician who was seen as too up-tight and snooty in his own presidential run in 2000 will now focus on…

In a campaign stop in Ohio for Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton, Rep. Tim Ryan (D-Ohio) wasted no time dialing things right up to 10. Speaking to a crowd in Youngstown, Ryan said of Clinton’s opponent: “I don’t mean to be graphic, but this guy to our friends in the trades — to our steelworkers who he’s been treating unfairly, very unfairly — he will, he will gut you and he will walk over…

CNN is again in trouble for running a misleading headline. Earlier in the week, CNN put out an article with the headline “Howard Stern Says Trump Backed Iraq War in 2002” and discussed the “fallout” on-air with Don Lemon. Stern, however, says he never “confirmed” anything. While on air earlier this week, Stern and his co-host Robin Quivers discussed their surprise that CNN would run a…

The Battle of Mogadishu, which inspired the book and film titled “Black Hawk Down,” occurred 23 years ago this week. In an operation that was supposed to go rather simply, Army Rangers and Delta Force troops were assigned to capture top lieutenants of warlord Mohamed Farrah Aidid. As they were being taken away after their mission was complete, rocket-propelled grenade fire downed two Black Hawk…

"Saturday Night Live" is supposed to be that one show that goes above politics to mock people on both sides of the aisle. Nothing is more a staple of "SNL" political mockery than their extensive attempts to make fun of presidential debates over the years. The spoof of the first presidential debate between Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton came out last week. There were certainly more jabs at…

Quick question: If you are a university professor who has made a series of obviously anti-Semitic conspiracy posts on your Facebook page, and have been suspended while the administrators contemplate disciplinary action, what should you do in the meantime? The correct answer is to say nothing, do nothing, and remain as quiet as possible for as long as possible. That memo apparently didn’t reach…

You remember that part about free speech in the Constitution, right? How anyone has the right to freely speak and assemble - unless doing so offends some people and makes them feel uncomfortable? No? Well, congratulations! You have a better understanding of the Constitution than some students at the University of California, Los Angeles. As reported by Campus Reform, the group Young…

President Obama got a little impatient with Bill Clinton today. As the two were about to depart Israel after attending the funeral of former Israeli President Shimon Peres, Obama was caught on camera trying to call out to Clinton who was, apparently, holding up the plane. Obama called and waved for Clinton to get on the plane a few times, before finally stepping back out onto the stairs to…
