**Written by Doug Powers Many more California dairy farmers will be blaming the dog for their cows' farts thanks to progs in state government hell-bent to make everything more expensive in the name of fighting “climate change”: Gov. Jerry Brown signed a bill Monday that regulates for the first time greenhouse-gas emissions tied to dairy cows and landfills, an escalation of California's efforts to fight climate change beyond carbon-based gases to include methane and other pollutants. The move by ...

**Written by Doug Powers Yesterday Ahmad Rahami was captured alive, but just coincidentally his wife decided to go on vacation shortly before the bombings in New Jersey and Manhattan: Rahami's wife left the United States a few days before this weekend's bombings, and US officials want to speak with her, a law enforcement official said on condition of anonymity. The official didn't provide details about her travels but said authorities are working with officials in Pakistan and the United Arab Em...

**Written by Doug Powers Don't lose any sleep about the latest dereliction — I'm sure the government will do a bang-up job when it comes to vetting a hundred thousand refugees from some of these same areas: The U.S. government has mistakenly granted citizenship to at least 858 immigrants from countries of concern to national security or with high rates of immigration fraud who had pending deportation orders, according to an internal Homeland Security audit released Monday. The Homeland Security ...

The above “warning” was made in December. How many “lone wolves” does it take to form a **Written by Doug Powers The above “warning” was made in December. How many “lone wolves” does it take to form a “pack”? Five people were taken into custody Sunday night in connection with Saturday's explosion in Manhattan's Chelsea neighborhood, following a traffic stop conducted by the FBI and NYPD on the Verrazano–Narrows Bridge, which connects the New York City boroughs of Brooklyn and Staten Island...

**Written by Doug Powers There are 50 days until the election. Crunch time! Here's a Sunday open thread for whatever's on your mind… ***** In Manhattan Thursday night, this happened: A man wielding an 11-inch meat cleaver gashed an off-duty NYPD detective Thursday evening before he was shot by other officers following a foot chase through midtown Manhattan. Incoming NYPD Commissioner James O'Neill told a press conference that two other officers were injured in the incident, but did not disclose...

**Written by Doug Powers I'm no fashion critic, so instead I'll put it into football quarterback terms and say this is what's known as trying to force something that isn't there: The Post put a question mark after “style icon” because they didn't want to be total sycophantic sellouts. Maybe they're on to something, because I was dressed like this earlier when fixing an electrical problem (it's the only jacket with pockets that can hold all my tools, and the wearable black tape really comes in...

**Written by Doug Powers This morning, Donald Trump promised to deliver comments on the issue of President Obama's birthplace. Trump did offer some words on that issue — eventually — but there was a lengthy unrelated lead-up first, and the media flipped. It was even described as a hostage situation: Donald Trump said “Jump,” and TV news said “How high?” It happened again on Friday morning when the Republican presidential candidate held the media hostage for nearly an hour after promising a major...

**Written by Doug Powers Hillary Clinton was back on the campaign trail Thursday after collapsing on Sunday and being put into a van while concerned handlers yelled for the driver to “take her to the nearest ER or preferably Chelsea's apartment!” Team Clinton has since started losing more ground in the polls and is obviously looking into ramping up the fear mongering with a man who puts the “I” in “climate Armageddon”: Mrs. Clinton may also get an assist from one Democrat who has been largely q...

**Written by Doug Powers Colin Powell's office confirmed hacked emails released Tuesday night were indeed sent by the former chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, and his opinion of how the husband of the Democrat nominee still spends his free time at home while his wife's at yoga class has swept the country: I thought it was funny that Powell cited a source in his email — as if it might not have been believable otherwise. Or maybe the citation was necessary: This intro paragraph from The Hi...

Mulan vs. the diversity-mongers by Michelle MalkinCreators Syndicate Copyright 2016 Let's get down to business. The casting kerfuffle over Disney's live-action remake of the 1998 animated hit “Mulan” brings honor to none. It's a politically correct tempest in a Chinese teapot. More than 90,000 angry activists have now signed a petition “to tell Disney that we demand to see them cast an Asian Mulan.” The lead instigator, Michigan children's librarian Natalie Molnar, vented against the practice o...

**Written by Doug Powers Hillary's staying home for a day or two after a bout with allergies dehydration pneumonia, but she can always count on Bill to step up when she can't be there. Especially when she can't be there: Bill Clinton will be stepping in tomorrow for his pneumonia-plagued wife at the pricey fundraisers set for Seth MacFarlane and Barry Diller's homes, campaign sources confirm to Deadline. Hollywood's O.G. favorite Democrat, the 42nd President of the United States will now headlin...

This is what madness looks like. “When the confrontation begins, strike like champions who do not want to go back to this world. Shout, ‘Allahu Akbar,' because this strikes fear in the hearts of the non-believers.” That's what 9/11 lead hijacker Mohammed Atta wrote in the jihad checklist found in his baggage 15 years ago after the terror attacks took 2,996 innocent lives. Seconds before United Airlines Flight 93 crashed in Shanksville, Pennsylvania on that day, the last sound passengers heard ...

**Written by Doug Powers A couple days ago, the Washington Post editorial board published what was tantamount to a long-form application to head up Hillary's WH press office if she's elected president. Here's the conclusion: Ms. Clinton is hardly blameless. She treated the public's interest in sound record-keeping cavalierly. A small amount of classified material also moved across her private server. But it was not obviously marked as such, and there is still no evidence that national security w...

**Written by Doug Powers Chelsea Clinton was at Penn St. University on Wednesday: Volunteers dressed in Clinton-Kaine buttons and t-shirts of all ages packed the office of the Centre County Democrats to participate in a phone bank and hear from Chelsea Clinton, daughter of Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton and former president Bill Clinton. Clinton, who made her first public appearance since the Democratic National Convention in late-July, campaigned on behalf of her mother and tha...
