The GOP has an opportunity to pick up a Senate seat in Minnesota
A FAKE REPUBLICAN RUNS IN MINNESOTA
The GOP has an opportunity to pick up a Senate seat in Minnesota. After the Democrats forced Al Franken out of office, Governor Mark Dayton appointed his Lieutenant Governor, Tina Smith, to serve until the general election in November. Smith is a little-known and rather faceless office-holder. As an urban leftist with questionable ties, e.g. as a former senior executive of Planned Parenthood, she is vulnerable. The question for Republicans »HOW RUSSIA TRIED TO BLOCK US ENERGY PRODUCTION
Russia’s supposed “meddling” in the 2016 election has been an endless topic of news coverage, but for some reason our press has shown little interest in other instances of Russian meddling–the nuclear freeze movement of the 1980s, for example, or more recently, Russia’s effort to discredit fracking and rouse popular opposition to pipeline construction. Last Thursday, the Majority Staff of the United States House of Representatives Committee on Science, Space, »CNN ISN’T GIVING UP ON COLLUSION
We wrote here about Anastasia Vashukevich, an Instagram model/sex coach who ran afoul of the authorities in Bangkok. Vashukevich was arrested for “giving sex lessons to Russian tourists” without a permit and was interviewed by the Associated Press while on board a police van taking her to a jail. Seriously. Like the rest of us, Vashukevich would rather be on the outside of a Bangkok jail looking in, than on »THE WORLD’S ENERGY SUPERPOWER: US
This Wall Street Journal article is heartwarming: The U.S. will overtake Russia to become the world’s largest oil producer by 2023, accounting for most of the global growth in petroleum supplies, a top industry monitor said Monday. U.S. crude production is expected to reach a record of 12.1 million barrels a day in 2023, up about 2 million barrels a day from this year, said the International Energy Agency, which »WHOSE FANTASY OF THE PAST?
Joy Reid, a leftist writing at the Daily Beast, has a column titled “The Right Can’t Fight the Future.” It is an odd mingling of triumphalism and paranoia, a combination we see often on the left. It is the sort of thing we have seen a thousand times–the inevitable victory of leftism, never mind the USSR, East Germany, North Korea, Venezuela, and so on. But some found Reid’s column impressive, »ET TU, COUNTRY MUSIC?
If there is any place in America where one might have expected a conservative to feel at home, it would be country music. Or would have been, anyway, until the Country Music Association chased Mike Huckabee off the board of its charitable foundation: On Wednesday, the Country Music Association announced the newest members of the board of its charitable foundation: singer Chris Young and former Arkansas governor Mike Huckabee ®. »ON TARIFFS, HOLD THE HYSTERIA
President Trump said last week that he intends to use powers granted him by Congress to impose import duties on steel and aluminum. That was all it took for the press to become free traders. Gloom and doom are everywhere, as reporters gleefully tell us how our trading partners are planning to retaliate and how Trump’s tariffs will damage the economy. I don’t recall a similar reaction when it was »AT U OF MIAMI, FREE SPEECH IS EXPENSIVE
The Federalist Society at the University of Miami Law School proposed to bring in Charles Murray as part of a debate on free speech. Ironically enough, the university responded by charging the Federalist Society for the cost of security for the event–security made necessary by liberals’ proclivity toward violence. The tab? Nearly $8,000, a prohibitive sum for most campus groups. Goodbye, debate on free speech! The president and vice-president of »
KURTH RAISED PRACTICAL CONCERNS WITH THE IDEA, ASKING WHETHER SHE WOULD HAVE TO GO THROUGH EXTRA TRAINING, WEAR A KEVLAR VEST, AND STRAP A FIREARM TO HER LEG. SHE ALSO SAID SHE DID NOT WANT TO RISK CONFUSION BETWEEN TEACHERS AND THE SWAT TEAMS WHO RESPOND TO MASS SHOOTINGS BY POSSESSING A WEAPON UPON THEIR ARRIVAL. FLORIDA REPUBLICAN MARCO RUBIO, WHO ATTENDED THE TOWN HALL, SAID THAT HE ALSO OPPOSED ARMING TEACHERS. “I DON’T SUPPORT THAT. THE NOTION THAT MY KIDS ARE GOING TO SCHOOL WITH TEACHERS THAT ARE ARMED WITH A WEAPON IS QUITE FRANKLY NOT SOMETHING I’M COMFORTABLE WITH,” RUBIO SAID. BROWARD COUNTY SHERIFF SCOTT ISRAEL PANNED THE IDEA AS WELL, SAYING HE DIDN’T THINK TEACHERS SHOULD BE ARMED, BUT THAT THEY SHOULD TEACH. FLORIDA DEMOCRAT BILL NELSON AGREED. “I THINK IT IS A TERRIBLE IDEA,” NELSON SAID, CALLING FOR AN ASSAULT WEAPONS BAN INSTEAD. THE PARKLAND SHOOTING, WHICH LEFT 17 STUDENTS AND FACULTY MEMBERS DEAD, WAS CARRIED OUT WITH AN AR-15 SEMI-AUTOMATIC ASSAULT RIFLE. “IF THE WEAPON IS A HIGH CALIBER, RAPID FIRE ASSAULT WEAPON, IT IS HARD TO GO INTO A FIGHT AGAINST THAT IF YOU’VE GOT JUST A HANDGUN. THAT’S NOT A FAIR FIGHT.”DA GIOVEDÌ BREVE TREGUA DALLA PIOGGIA
