Black woman, 25-35, still sought in 2:25 AM smash-up of Rally's Hamburgers March 27 after it ran out of chocolate ice cream
The St. Louis area’s two busiest criminal prosecution offices are undergoing a much-needed review of cases involving low-level offenders with an eye toward reducing incarceration as the preferred instrument of deterrence. Kimberly Gardner and Wesley Bell promised reform when they campaigned for their respective jobs as chief prosecutors in St. Louis city and county. ... Bell told the editorial board last month that he wants to reserve criminal prosecution and imprisonment for the “worst of the worst.”
Methinks 'twill be a hot summer in the city this year.

Western civilization wasn't built on the "Judeo-Christian" heritage until the "Judeo" was added in the mid-20th century
The addition of "Judeo" is largely due to the post-war victors' response to and feelings of guilt for the Holocaust, but is also bound up with the post-war enthusiasm for ecumenism which remembered how Protestants and Catholics of many stripes fought side by side with Jews in the allied forces of the west to defeat Hitler.
The France which started to build the Notre Dame Cathedral in about 1160 thought so little of Jews it took away their property and expelled them from time to time.
Pete Bootyjudge is turning out to be not the sharpest knife in the drawer
So sorry, Indiana. So sorry, US Naval Intelligence. So sorry, Harvard, Oxford, Cecil Rhodes.
Hm, so it was the Republicans who knocked off Scalia! Amazing! Only a US Naval Intelligence officer could know that.

National Review's Kevin Williamson goes all-in for thorough-going materialism
By any meaningful standard of measurement, these are, materially speaking, the best years the human race has ever experienced—and the best years the American people have ever experienced, too. Health, wealth, safety, freedom, opportunity—never better.
Unless you were one of the approximately 1.5 billion aborted in the world since 1990.

Anthony Bialy forgets "supporting Arab spring", which destabilized the Middle East and North Africa and flooded the west with refugees
. . . and unconstitutional executive orders, record number of Supreme Court slapdowns, Attorney General held in contempt of Congress, bailouts of big businesses and banks while millions lost their careers, savings and homes, rock-bottom interest rates for eight years depriving savers, insurance companies, pension funds and states of needed income . . ..
Update: And! And! Benghazi!
How could I have forgotten Benghazi?

Reza Aslan's worthless PhD never screened for "cite" vs. "site", you know, as in scholarly citation
Fortunately the examination committee of Twitter is pointing out the underlying intellectual shortcomings, of which misuse of "site" is only a signal.

It's an outrage that Bernie Sanders himself has been sucked up in this evil proliferation of millionaires, just like Biden
Who will save us from this invisible hand making people rich all over the place?
John Dryden sums up Ilhan Omar
Poor refugees, at first they purchase here;
And soon as denizen'd, they domineer.

Reuters headline, and I quote: "S.African township squalid despite 25 years of black rule"
S.African township squalid and neglected despite 25 years of black rule:
The shocking conditions in which people like Ditsela live are a big
problem for the governing African National Congress (ANC), which faces
mounting public anger over its failure to improve the lives of millions
of the poorest citizens, 25 years after the end of white minority rule.

Bernie makes millionaires safe for the world just as ancient citizen of Tarsus made Pharisaism safe for the world
It all depends on eliminating the cut with these people.
One side clearly has the upper hand in the Semite wars, and good for them, but take it outside please, we have enough division without either of them

LOL: NYT's Maggie Haberman keeps covering for Obama by NOT mentioning indicted Greg Craig was his White House Counsel in year one
Never trust a guy with two first names. Or the NYT.
The Maoist Bob Bauer succeeded Craig. Greg. C'mon, you know who I mean.
Hillary in 1993 was today's mean girl Amy Klobuchar, humiliated Vince Foster as hick lawyer in front of staff one week before suicide
Ken Starr left the information out of his FBI report so as not to further hurt Hillary.
Never trust a liberal to do the right thing.
EXCLUSIVE: Ken Starr says Hillary Clinton DID trigger Vince Foster's suicide when she humiliated him in front of White House staff and admits he omitted the finding in FBI report because he didn't want to 'inflict further pain' on her:
'Hillary put him down really, really bad
in a pretty good-size meeting,' Copeland said. 'She told him he didn't
get the picture, and he would always be a little hick town lawyer who
was obviously not ready for the big time.'
Indeed, Hillary went so far as to blame
Foster for all the Clintons' problems and to accuse him of failing them,
according to Clemente, who was also assigned by the FBI to the Starr
investigation and who probed the circumstances surrounding Foster's
suicide.
'Foster was profoundly depressed, but
Hillary lambasting him was the final straw because she publicly
embarrassed him in front of others,' said Clemente, who, like Copeland,
was speaking about the investigation for the first time.
'Hillary blamed him for failed
nominations, claimed he had not vetted them properly, and said in front
of his White House colleagues, ''You're not protecting us'' and ''You
have failed us,'' Clemente said. 'That was the final blow.'
After the meeting, Foster's behavior
changed dramatically, the FBI agents found. Those who knew Foster said
his voice sounded strained, he became withdrawn and preoccupied, and his
sense of humor vanished. At times, Foster teared up. He talked of
feeling trapped.
LOL: Senate Democrats suddenly upset about unfounded spying allegations three years into Russian collusion hoax
The DOJ looks set to investigate the investigators.
Chicago's Kim Foxx let Jussie Smollett off the hook, turns out she let a convicted murderer go free
Cook County State's Attorney Kim Foxx lets Derrion Albert killer off the hook:
CHICAGO (WLS) -- The family of 16-year-old Derrion Albert wants to know why one of the men convicted in his murder is now free. The 16-year-old Fenger High School honors student was on the way home from school when he was caught in the middle of a gang fight and killed in 2009. The I-Team has been looking into the Cook County State's Attorney decisions in the wake of the Jussie Smollett case and uncovered that the Cook County State's Attorney Kim Foxx decided not to pursue a stiff prison sentence for one of the attackers shortly after she took office. Cook County prosecutors charged four teens involved in the gang melee that led to Albert's death as adults. Three were convicted of murder at trial. One pleaded guilty. All are serving prison sentences.

Minnesota's Somali Representative to the US Congress Ilhan Omar describes 9/11 as "some people did something"
Ilhan Omar Trivializes 9/11 Terrorist Attacks: 'Some People Did Something':
"CAIR was founded after 9/11 because they recognized that some people
did something, and that all of us were starting to lose access to our
civil liberties," Omar said.
I stand corrected: "Buttigieg" does NOT rhyme with "Buttkrieg"
It's worse than that.
It's pronounced something like "booty judge".
Uh huh.
Bernie renews his immigration restrictionist views from 2015: The world's full of poor people, we can't let them all in here
Bernie Sanders Says U.S. Can't Have 'Open Borders' Because Poor People Will Come 'From All Over the World':
“Oh my god, there’s a lot of poverty in this world, and you’re going
to have people from all over the world. And I don’t think that’s
something that we can do at this point. Can’t do it,” the senator added.

Loser in Georgia gubernatorial contest Stacey Abrams says her vote was suppressed while taking credit for turnout surge
Ding dong.
Abrams Complains Race Was Stolen Through Voter Suppression, Boasts of Huge Turnout Increases in Same Interview:
"I ran a race where … we tripled Latino turnout, Asian-Pacific
Islander turnout, increased youth participation rates by 138 percent,
increased black turnout by 40 percent, and I got the highest share of
white voters in a generation," she said. "It is not a zero-sum game, and
we have to remember that winning elections is about building the
largest coalition possible." ...
"I'm not saying I absolutely know I would have won, but we know that
thousands of Georgians had their voices stolen because they were not
able to cast ballots and they cannot be guaranteed that their votes will
be counted in 2020 if we don't do this right," she said.
Georgia voter turnout surged from 43 percent in 2014, the last governor's race year in the state, to 57 percent in 2018. ... Abrams lost by less than 55,000 votes but failed to force a runoff as Kemp continued a Republican state-wide winning streak.
However, Abrams has refused to officially concede
she lost, saying "we won," accusing Kemp of systemic voter suppression
tactics, and saying the race was "stolen" from the voters of Georgia.
