My article from the Sept. 25, 2014 issue of FrontPage magazine: Obama Brings the Ferguson Lynch Mob to the U.N. By Matthew Vadum President Obama used an opportunity on the world stage this week to encourage America’s enemies to continue promoting the tired old left-wing narrative that the U.S. is an irretrievably racist hotbed of injustice. Instead of just focusing on the topic of the day, namely, what the U.S. government is planning to do to undermine the extraordinarily brutal Islamic State of Iraq and Greater Syria (ISIS), Obama suggested that his own country’s race relations problems are on par with leading world … Continue reading Obama Brings the Ferguson Lynch Mob to the U.N.

My article from the Sept. 11, 2014 issue of FrontPage magazine: Patriots Vow to Fight on for Benghazi Answers By Matthew Vadum Questions about the Obama administration’s decision to let helpless Americans die in the terrorist attack on the U.S. mission in Benghazi, Libya two years ago won’t go away anytime soon. But that won’t stop former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, who desperately wants to be the next president, from trying to make the whole Benghazi episode that happened under her watch go away.  So far the Clinton operation isn’t working. Charles Woods, father of Navy SEAL Tyrone Woods, … Continue reading Patriots Vow to Fight on for Benghazi Answers

I’m one of the most cited conservative journalists in America, apparently. Google my name and I’m everywhere. I used to keep track of all the citations in the media but eventually it became an overwhelming task. Now I only track citations in published books. My work is cited in at least 64 books so far. Authors on the right, such as John Fund, Phyllis Schafly, Michael Reagan, David Horowitz, and Michelle Malkin rely on my research and commentary. Authors on the left, such as Arianna Huffington, Thomas Frank, and Center for American Progress visiting fellow Shirley Sagawa, have also given my work a vote of confidence … Continue reading I’m one of the most cited conservative journalists in America, apparently.

My article from the Aug. 22, 2014 issue of FrontPage magazine: Holder’s Lynch Mob in Ferguson By Matthew Vadum The cop-hating radical lawyers of Eric Holder’s Justice Department are reportedly continuing to feed the passions of the lynch mob in Ferguson, Mo., that is screaming for the blood of the white cop who shot and killed a young black man earlier this month in what now almost certainly appears to be an act of self-defense. A white police officer’s racism, an allegation for which there is no evidence whatsoever, supposedly caused the unfortunate incident. But the leftists who run the … Continue reading Holder’s Lynch Mob in Ferguson

My article from today’s FrontPage magazine: Border Horror By Matthew Vadum The brutal slaying of a U.S. Border Patrol agent by illegal aliens highlights the perils of the Obama administration’s de facto open borders policy that has transformed the nation’s southern boundary into a taxpayer-funded welcome center for desperately poor unskilled and low-skill workers, sick children, welfare mooches, and violent criminal gang members. This horrific crime happened not too far from the same border that Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) sedately insisted was “secure.” “We hear a lot on TV that the border is secure, that the border is safer and that … Continue reading Border Horror

My article from today’s FrontPage magazine: Conservatives Triumph in Border Bill Victory By Matthew Vadum Conservatives in Congress scored a major triumph last week as the House approved emergency legislation that strengthens border security and attempts to rein in a lawless president. Congresswoman Michele Bachmann (R-Minn.), a conservative champion, took a well-deserved victory lap in an interview with the WND news website. The “legislative miracle” approved by the House represents a “stunning turnaround” and “a huge victory for the conservatives in Congress.” Its approval is also a big win for the American people who, Bachmann said, “saved Congress from itself” by jamming the congressional switchboard to state their opposition to President … Continue reading Conservatives Triumph in Border Bill Victory

My article from the July 31, 2014 issue of FrontPage magazine: Down to the Wire By Matthew Vadum Republican lawmakers in the nation’s capital are racing against the legislative clock to approve measures aimed at cleaning up the border mess that President Obama created and preventing him from issuing unilateral decrees making it much, much worse. The Obama administration is threatening to plunge the nation into a dire constitutional crisis after Labor Day by using executive orders to grant a huge amnesty to millions of illegal aliens now in the United States. Of course, in the American system of government, … Continue reading Down to the Wire

My article from the July 28, 2014 issue of FrontPage magazine: Bracing for Amnesty By Matthew Vadum Amnesty is coming — big time. Americans need to brace themselves for a huge new wave of Obama-led lawlessness because the president is planning what a top schemer in the White House calls a “very significant” executive action on immigration after the summer. Undoubtedly this means some kind of amnesty for illegal aliens is in the works over and above what Obama has already done, the Constitution and public fury notwithstanding. Obama’s “planned executive orders” would give legal status “to another 5–6 million illegal … Continue reading Bracing for Amnesty
