Zombie Justice and Middlebury

Aside from being an honest and exemplary researcher and author with invaluable insight, Charles Murray has done everything right. He’s played by the rules. He opposed Donald Trump for all the right reasons; his opposition has been unrelenting. According to one of his tweets he was opposed to Donald Trump before he was born, orContinue reading “Zombie Justice and Middlebury”

Berkeley

Amazing raw video of the last stand of free speech at Berkeley (I think the “Free Speech” sign the counter-protesters captured goes up in flames at about 35 minutes) yesterday. I didn’t know what to make of the police tactics. Here they’re like a school of fish massing outside of two larger ones. But IContinue reading “Berkeley”

Just two days after President Trump provoked widespread consternation by seeming to imply, incorrectly, that immigrants had perpetrated a recent spate of violence in Sweden, riots broke out in a predominantly immigrant neighborhood in theContinue reading “Reality’s Trump-et”
