Mark Levin says that Gowdy ignored many sound reasons for Rosenstein's impeachment - and sees his performance in this matter as a repeat of Gowdy's "go-nowhere" treatment of the Benghazi investigation, which he also chaired. [The unspoken question has arisen about Gowdy being a 'mole' among conservatives acting to appear to be a champion of reform but actually working to prevent it.] [...]
President Trump gave a press conference to announce a signed agreement with Kim Jong Un that requires the complete denuclearization of North Korea, with sanctions remaining in place until Kim meets his commitment. Trump said also that U.S. war games will end and that his ultimate goal is to bring the 32,000 troops stationed in the area back home. [The agreement that was revealed to the public is a statement of intent. Details now must be worked out.
It is apparent that the world is coalescing into two opposing military alliances, both of which are considering war as the likely resolution of their differences. [We are expected to support one side and oppose the other, but both sides embrace collectivism and oppose each other, not over ideology, but only on who will dominate. There are no good guys here.] [...]
A NJ housing developer issued a notice to its renters advising them that “No one will be permitted to store, or carry a gun or rifle, or any other type of firearm of any kind in the building, or on the grounds.” If a firearm is discovered, they say they will evict.
The Koch Brothers and their organizations, including Americans for Prosperity, are generally thought to be conservative, but they are advocate for mass immigration and amnesty. A Koch organization representative threatened Republicans with a reduction in campaign donations when he said that the Koch networks will "closely evaluate" their contributions to GOP midterm races if DACA amnesty is not passed.

South Africa: Vicki Momberg, a white woman, was convicted of 'hate speech' and sentenced to two years in prison for yelling a racial slur at a black policeman after thieves broke into her car. A video of her rant went viral in which she requested a white or Indian officer and said that black people are "plain and simple useless." [Far worse things now are being yelled at white people in South Africa but, as always happens when there are laws to control thoughts and speech, they are applied unequally, depending on who controls the government.
In a free country, citizens do not have the right to use force against their neighbors to prevent them from selling their products below cost - even if their intent is to force competitors out of business. If we do not have that authority as individuals, we cannot delegate it to politicians to do it either, regardless of how much we may like the idea. Therefore, there should be no anti-trust laws, but there CAN and SHOULD be laws against favoring one company or consortium of companies over their competitors, which creates monopolies.

Lenin taught that a culturally unified nation is difficult to topple, so he fractured the culture and divided the people into antagonistic groups: opposing classes, races, religions, etc., culminating in hatred and violence. The Communist Party USA used this strategy during the rise of the civil rights movement, but not one person in a thousand had any idea who was directing the movement.
Colleges and universities are not bound by Constitution - only the federal government is. "Congress shall pass no law" to restrict speech. Schools are not bound by that. However, most colleges and universities receive federal money, so it would be an easy thing to require that they comply with the Constitution if they want the money - but federal politicians apparently are not interested in taking that stand. [...]
Telford, England: Three police officers who investigated the rape scandal of British girls by predominantly Pakistani Muslim men revealed that their superiors dropped the cases because the chiefs said it “was too much trouble”. Medical professionals are accused of failing to question why underage girls were having abortions, miscarriages, and taking the morning-after pill. Most of these girls were teens who were lured into the sex rings and later brutalized and threatened into silence.
