Oct 8, 2025 – Those of you who have been with me here at HotAir for the past couple of years know I have not been a Governor Kristi Noem fan.I can point to a couple of posts where I ripped her up royally, along with her neighboring governor, Doug Burgum.I also try to...

Oct 9, 2025 – Monday is Columbus Day.And that's the day it is, has been, and will always be to me. President Trump likes the sound of that, too..@POTUS officially proclaims Monday, October 13, 2025, as COLUMBUS DAY! pic.twitter.com/oFgPJQkRep— Rapid Response 47 (@RapidResponse47) October 9, 2025YMMV depending on your degree of woke or ethnic umbrage.The...

Oct 9, 2025 – Man. Democrats are sumpthin'.Nothing like having a bang-up week chock full of only your best and brightest to work wonders for your brand rehabilitation.What should have been a sleepy Monday dawned with word that their candidate in Virginia for Attorney General not only likes to drive fast, but also gets...

Oct 14, 2025 – ...as the fourth largest aircraft manufacturing hub...IN THE WORLD.BOOMITYI'll bet y'all didn't see that coming.Neither did anyone else, except for a few visionaries back in 2008. That was when Airbus, as part of European consortium EADS, worked with Northrup Grumman to get in on the new, next-generation Air Force tanker...

Oct 14, 2025 – Something like this happening after a weekend of the Illinois governor running his mouth and calling Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and Department of Homeland Security (DHS) agents thugs sure seems strangely coincidental, no?Late this morning, the feds were out doing their jobs on the East Side of Chicago.A neighborhood...

Oct 15, 2025 – With all the attention focused on the ugliness of Virginia Democratic candidates, now causing a once commanding lead to slip away from Abigail Spanberger and company, you would think her former roommate, New Jersey Democratic gubernatorial candidate Mikie Sherrill, would be treading a tad more carefully in her own contest....

Oct 14, 2025 – You all have done a terrific job of keeping me company as I wander, absolutely dumbfounded, through the European landscape, and I'm here to tell you I appreciate it.Oftentimes, when I've been really baffled by some European Union member's parliamentary sleight of hand, electoral jujitsu, or outright chicanery, one of...

Oct 15, 2025 – I wanted to get to this, but a different, peculiarly German story took up airspace yesterday.This one will give you all the diversity and woke heebie jeebies, I'm telling you.Once upon a time, in the mid-sized (population a shade over 22K) German city of Herdecke, there lived the 57-year-old Iris...

Oct 15, 2025 – Welp. Seems to be going around.I had just finished reading a Xweet about Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Director Russ Vought's plans during the Schumer Shutdown for trimming the fat. He was a guest on the Charlie Kirk Show, and outlined what he had in mind and why when...

Oct 16, 2025 – For all that Donald Trump has accomplished on a world stage since becoming our 47th president, I have experienced the same resurgence of tremendous national pride and relief that most rational Americans have felt, watching our country re-establish itself so rapidly and with such determination. The eight years of Obama's...

Oct 5, 2025 – On Friday, word broke that the young Democrat running against Republican incumbent Jason Miyares to be Virginia's next state attorney general might not be as squeaky clean, 'butter-wouldn't melt in his mouth' wonderful as his first impression would lead one to assume.In point of fact, former State House rep (D-Norfolk)...

Oct 6, 2025 – I'm not sure which is hated more, the ban on plastic straws or the one in states that no longer allow customers to leave a business with what's known as a 'single use plastic bag.'Aka the ubiquitous plastic shopping bag that dominates every supermarket checkout counter and little shop, and...

Oct 6, 2025 – Aw, this is just gonna be sumpthin', you know?Chicago's own Brandon 'Bear of Little Brains' Johnson is feeling his oats, which is a bad thing when there's not that much intellectual firepower driving the actions.Or the mouth.What a walking, talking disaster this ginormous jackass is.As David told you just a...

Oct 9, 2025 – GAWD, I love progressives.Have y'all figured that out about me yet?They are the gift that you never wanted but keep on getting.All this focus on Chicago, Seattle, and the main event in Portland right now must have made the Hamas supporters in Michelle Wu's Boston feel left out and froggy,...

Oct 9, 2025 – As they say in sitcoms, wow - that escalated quickly.So far, Jonathan Rinderknecht, the suspect accused of starting what became the Palisades Fire, now in Orlando and awaiting extradition to California, is only charged with property destruction by means of fire at the moment.When I got the post up yesterday, right...

Oct 13, 2025 – Sometimes, the prettiest face and whitest teeth in a big, beaming smile can't save you from what came out of that mouth.Some of that is now catching up to the perky progressive pretender known as The Zohran - Zohran Mamdani - who quite possibly will be the next mayor of New York...

Oct 13, 2025 – Back in mid-September, I wrote a post about how Trump's threats to send the National Guard into Memphis weren't being met with the amount of angst and derision so common in other blue cities on his 'clean-up' list.Memphis mayor Paul Young wasn't exactly thrilled with the idea, to be sure,...

Oct 13, 2025 – Holy smokes - this was a thing of beauty. And this 'Peace Conference' that Trump and the Arabs have set up is shaping up to be majorly entertaining from one certain vantage point - watching the Europeans squirm.You know, the European Union elites who cravenly recognized a 'Palestinian State,' and nearly...

Oct 13, 2025 – Barack Obama is a puke, pure and simple.There.I said it.Granted, he has lots of other miserable, preening, self-absorbed, un-American, and narcissistic traits.But when you have to just grab a word and go, 'puke' works.My girlfriend Dr Alice hit me up this afternoon with another of her sage observations as I...

Oct 14, 2025 – What His Revolting Rotundness is basically saying is that if he can't get you now, he's going to get you later.You see [CUE dramatic music: DUM DUM DUMDUM] 'Trump won't always be president.'So the governor of Illinois wants to be the first to get his threats to federal law enforcement officers -...

Oct 15, 2025 – There's been a bit of a tit for tat going on between Pakistan and the goatherder barbarians Joe Biden left so much of our blood and treasure to in Afghanistan. It all revolves around an insurgent group that's been fighting in the mountains of the Pakistan/Afghanistan border region for decades.The...

Oct 27, 2025 – Oh, this greasy phony baloney.There are times he outflimflams himself, and the performance is so bad, and such a flagrantly outrageous lie, you have to watch, mesmerized.Like a chicken watching a cobra, cuz that's kind of what his twitchy hands look like.If any of you are unfamiliar with my headline,...

Oct 28, 2025 – President Trump was ready to dance as he came off Air Force One in Kuala Lumpur for the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) summit, with a little peace agreement signing planned on the side.The guy's hilarious.#WATCH | Diplomacy on the dance floor! President Trump joins traditional Malaysian dancers in...

Oct 28, 2025 – Yesterday morning, Ed's very first piece to start the day was about how the American Federation of Government Employees (AFGE), the largest union representing federal workers, had publicly said 'Enough.' Even more telling, their comments were directed to Democrats, the very party that has been the beneficiary of decades of...

Oct 28, 2025 – The climate cultists have been lying from the beginning.And they have always been lying liars who lie.Way back in 1976, NASA along the the Department of Energy, also criminally rigged the first Wind turbine impact research.Since then, fraudulent green energy research has hidden hundreds of millions of bird fatalities and...
