    25 years ago, I predicted in @TheSpectator that making a fetish of the Holocaust for non-Jews would produce antisemitism 2.0. I wish I was wrong.

    Man who advises everyone to kill himself or herself at 75 thinks Biden is fine.
    The problem isn't President Biden's age; it's his ability to function. From Ben Franklin to Warren Buffett and Nancy Pelosi, people have performed extraordinarily into their 80s. Biden has shown he is not one of them. Biden’s cognitive changes do not necessarily indicate

    Our best prose writer @Steve_Sailer: "Coates grew up physically scared of other blacks, which is one reason he has so few interesting stories from his 42 years of life: He didn’t go out much. So what has made this rather pathetic person so immensely popular with whites? The

    The rest of her speech was worse: "all of us [Muslims] were starting to lose access to our civil liberties" is a complete & deliberate lie. Govt, education, business, citizens went to extremes not to blame US Muslims for 9/11; praise for and instruction about Islam was pervasive
    A ‘pure racist act;’ N.Y. Post slammed for using 9/11 to attack Rep. Omar over speech on Islamophobia wapo.st/2UwdRmZ

    The neglect of @MZHemingway's book compared to the inferior, dishonest book by @rpogrebin, privileged by her famous 60s feminist mother and resulting Yale education, illustrates the privilege issue better than Robin's attack on Kavanaugh's merit.
    PSA for reporters interested in Kavanaugh story because of a book. @JCNSeverino and I wrote an exhaustively reported and thoroughly researched book chock full of news (from page one on!). It debuted at #1 just weeks ago. It might be time to read it. amazon.com/gp/product/162…

    You have it backwards. Alex Vindman "informed" on Trump in a USSR-style denunciation for which the evidence was a charade. The ruling Party seized on it to remove a legitimately elected president, amplified by an obedient party press.

    Why does Tim think that black men are incapable of being exposed to different opinions and points of view and need to be shielded from them, but that white people can take it?
    It’s not about censorship or snowflakes. It’s about self-awareness. You coach Big 12 football. Your job is to lead & develop young men, most of them black. They’re living history right now—and you, their leader, think it’s cool to get photographed wearing OAN gear? Gtfoh. #gundy

    Funny that hundreds of thousands of parents like me of schoolchildren see this "nowhere" in their kids' lessons and thousands more have themselves to sit through training in your "nothing" at work.

    If @AllisonPearson's offending tweet is the one the Grauniad says it is -- then the charge of racism is a blind: she offended the police themselves by criticizing them for favoring pro-Pal over pro-Israel demonstrators.
    I did NOT write a racist tweet. Screenshotted.

    Translation: Trump is getting Democrats nationwide to admit on air that they don't want illegals any more than the majority of Americans -- black, white, and hispanics -- do: a brilliant and effective lesson in politics.
    Shipping migrants to sanctuary cities? Malicious and foolish. Like it or not, migrants have a right to seek asylum. Punishing them (and fellow citizens) for exercising that right is cruel. And aside from Fox News fist-pumps it will backfire politically: nationalreview.com/corner/donald-…

    France: 5 Republics, 2 emperors, 4 kings, & 2 German occupations during serene rule of a single US Constitution.
    France has proven more resistant than US to demagogues winning power thanks in part to popular vote & 2-stage voting. #Presidentielle2017
