There is nothing in life quite as predictable as the unpredictable life-changing event.

NRO's Andrew McCarthy: Islam and the Jihad in London
"It's not non-western. It's anti-western."
"The movement does not want cohabitation. It wants conquest. It starts with assimilation-resistant enclaves that nurture sharia supremacism today and thereby breed the jihadists of tomorrow. This week, it took the campaign to Westminster Bridge."

Trump Promoted Bigly From Hitler to Incompetent
[I]n the 3D world of persuasion, Trump just had one of the best days any president ever had: He got promoted from Hitler to incompetent. And that promotion effectively defused the Hitler-hallucination bomb that was engineered by the Clinton campaign.

The Federalist:
How The New York Times Contributed To Ukraine’s ‘Bitter Harvest’ In The 1930s
"Joseph Stalin received great publicity, the New York Times published exclusive interviews with Stalin, and Walter Duranty could live glamorously. Everyone benefitted but starving Ukranians."
"Duranty and his employer simply spread fake news while millions of people were dying. Their role was akin to that of a musical band that knows people in the next room are tortured and murdered, so they play loud music to drown out their screams, thus preventing outsiders from trying to help the victims."

Retired law prof Althouse: NYT doesn't care that Obama administration violated rights of surveillance non-targets
More NYT weasel words - count 'em
"[T}o use that opportunity to listen in is a terrible infringement on the non-target, and the law required that these persons be protected. Instead, the leakers did the opposite and took advantage of what they heard and deliberately exposed what they were legally required to mask. Why doesn't the NYT care about this problem!"
The Dems Need to Investigate
The Republicans Turned on Nixon
"Here’s what Democrats and their friends in the media are too shortsighted to recognize: any skullduggery they excuse now will be used against them in the future. Anything that the Obama administration did during the transition can be done by figures in the Trump administration against future Democratic candidates."

President Orders Loyalty Tests For All Federal Employees
Hitleresque?
On this day 60 years ago, Democrat President Harry Truman ordered loyalty tests for all federal employees to flush out all those who were communist sympathizers or aligned with “totalitarian, fascist or subversive” organizations. Truman’s order demanded “complete and unswerving loyalty” to the United States, with anything less being deemed “a threat to our democratic process.” Each federal department and agency set up Loyalty Boards to enforce the order.

Law Prof Analyzes The Media Coverage of Comey's Testimony
Obama Voter Calls Politico Coverage Fake News
I'm Shocked
"I'm sick of the phony emotionalism. Maybe some Trump haters and media people and establishment politicians are hysterical, but don't project that emotion onto Trump. If you have actual information that Trump and his people are breaking down emotionally, tell me about it in strictly factual terms: What do you know and how do you know it? But don't take a story and imagine how Trump must feel or make up how you WISH Trump would feel and then report it as if it is news. It's fake news!"

YOU THINK TODAY IS BAD?
Never forget.
On this day in 1965, President Lyndon Johnson ordered federal troops to Alabama to protect a 54 mile civil rights march from Selma to Montgomery led by Rev. Martin Luther King. The purpose of the march was to protest the intimidation of black voters which had resulted in almost all of the black voters of Selma not being able to register to vote. Two other marches had started but ended in violence when police attacked the peaceful marchers with dogs, billy clubs and tear gas, all caught by TV cameras and broadcast on the national news shows. Five months later Congress passed the Voting Rights Act which guaranteed the right of all citizens to vote.
100% Proven Foreign Interference In Our Presidential Election
In 1796 the French government openly campaigned against John Adams for president, because he was pro-British, while campaigning in favor of Thomas Jefferson, because he was pro-French. The French were upset because George Washington and his Federalist Party had entered into pro-British treaties and had otherwise favored the British with their governing despite the fact that the French had played a critical role in helping defeat the British during the Revolutionary War. The French government’s campaigning did not work and Adams won the election for president with Jefferson being elected vice president.
