Case in point: The rise of the \u201cnature rights movement\u201d that elevates the natural world to moral equality with human beings.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/pjmedia.com\/rogerlsimon\/2012\/10\/01\/media-coup-detat\/\" target=\"_blank\">We Live Under a Media Coup d\u2019\u00c9tat<\/a><br \/>\nWe are the victims of a media coup d\u2019\u00e9tat and are currently living under it.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/pjmedia.com\/blog\/the-new-left-fascists\/\" target=\"_blank\">The New Left Fascists<\/a><br \/>\nThe mainstream media applauds the unapologetic criminality of journalist Mona Eltahawy, arrested for vandalizing Pamela Geller&#8217;s pro-Israel ads in the New York subway.<br \/>\nThe internationally notable Egyptian-American journalist Mona Eltahawy last week took a can of spray paint and began spray-painting over an ad in the Times Square subway station that she didn\u2019t like. Eltahawy painted the ad until a supporter of the ad got in between her and it; shortly thereafter, Eltahawy was arrested, charged with criminal<br \/>\nmischief, and spent the night in jail. That a prominent journalist would stoop to this crude act of vandalism is noteworthy in itself, but even more striking is the fact that so many on the Left are applauding her for it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Election 2012 Obama Raises $181 Million, Only Around 2% of Donations Reportable Keep an Eye on Swing-State Latinos Middle Cheese writes in on a topic he\u2019s been examining a while, how Obama and Romney stack up on the Latino vote &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/impeachreno.org\/politicalhat\/news-of-the-week\/news121007\/\">Continue reading <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"parent":76,"menu_order":1,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-96","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/impeachreno.org\/politicalhat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/96","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/impeachreno.org\/politicalhat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/impeachreno.org\/politicalhat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/impeachreno.org\/politicalhat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/impeachreno.org\/politicalhat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=96"}],"version-history":[{"count":13,"href":"https:\/\/impeachreno.org\/politicalhat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/96\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":196,"href":"https:\/\/impeachreno.org\/politicalhat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/96\/revisions\/196"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/impeachreno.org\/politicalhat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/76"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/impeachreno.org\/politicalhat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=96"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
