GREGG JARRETT: Stone indictment shows no evidence of Trump-Russia ‘collusion’. What it - and Mueller's other indictments - does show clearly is that there should never, ever be another Special Counsel with prosecutorial powers appointed for any reason whatever.

I might be willing to consider something along the lines of a 'Special Investigator', provided that office's sole authority would be to issue a report detailing its findings to the American citizenry. I would also require that office be severely limited in time (say, 1 year), scope, and budget, with all authorizing documents made publicly available;
have no prosecutorial authority; be required to issue periodic reports to the American public; and report only to a designated bipartisan subcommittee of Congress.

Short of that, never again.

THE DESTRUCTION OF VENICE BEACH epitomizes California’s idiocracy.

WHAT HAS HAPPENED TO THE LEFT?

The core Left have always been foaming-at-the-mouth crazy; all Trump did was pull the curtain aside.

CAN'T WIN THE DEBATE? Change the rules.

A THOUGHT EXPERIMENT FOR PROGRESSIVES: How about we try the shoe on the other foot?

I will no longer tolerate any clothing featuring the hammer and sickle. The hammer and sickle is the symbol of a totalitarian ideology that has murdered millions since its conception. The very sight of this iconography triggers me to such a degree that I feel perfectly justified abusing total strangers who've made the choice to wear it on their bodies. I don't care about their reasons. I don't care about their excuses. I don't even care how old they are. If anyone displays that Commie crap in my presence, he deserves whatever he gets.

Now go read the rest.

EVEN GOOD INTENTIONS can have bad consequences.

They could try sending them to New York, but the benefits are only available to illegal immigrants.

It's a no-brainer that when you offer people free -- or almost free -- stuff, they're going to take it. But, then, progressives have no brains.

I GUESS THE CHUCK & NANCY SHOW DIDN'T GO OVER VERY WELL.

So [former Georgia gubernatorial candidate] Stacey Abrams was chosen to give Democratic response to Trump's State of the Union. Abrams, like Chuck & Nancy, is a firm 'Resister'.

LEARN TO CODE: Lawyers everywhere rejoice at finding a profession even more pompous, privileged and thin-skinned than themselves.

Guess who?

WHAT WILL IT TAKE to make you understand and accept that they hate you?

GOOD LUCK WITH THAT: "We are coming to take your guns."

DOES THE NONSTOP VIOLENT RHETORIC against Trump and his supporters mean that leftists don’t actually believe that a “climate of hate” leads to violence? No. It means they believe violence will be confined to their side.

QUESTION: Should the FBI run the country?

ANSWER: Not as long as it takes 29 agents to nab an elderly lobbyist.

Common sense, we hardly know ya'.

NO WALL? No problem. I know it's a purely rhetorical question, but it's an idea I could get behind if the claymores were designed to disperse some nonlethal incapacitating agent.

WHEN MEN WERE MEN: Bonnie and Clyde would be ashamed.

From the comments: "Meh, it's Austin. The whole town gave up its Texas card a long time ago."

MORE: Austin has clearly lost its cachet as a Texas city.

ILHAN OMAR: Evil in the House.

President Trump - aided by normal Americans - has forced them to fly their true colors.

RANDOM THOUGHT: After skimming the comments from a number of recent blog posts, I've come to the following conclusion based on two of many:

From simple minds ...

... comes the Democrat party.

Pretty much all you need to know in today's world.

SECRETARY OF STATE MIKE POMPEO speaks on Venezuela at the United Nations:

[I]t is time for every other nation to pick a side. Either you stand with the forces of freedom, or you’re in league with Maduro and his mayhem.

Stand tall, and stand with freedom.

MORE: Mike Pompeo humiliates Venezuelan President Maduro.

MORE AND MORE AMERICANS don’t just distrust the mainstream media — they are coming to loathe and despise them, and deservedly so.

Uh, huh.

IT'S NOT WHAT THEY SAY, IT'S WHAT THEY DO: A better guide than elite opinion is public revulsion at it.

HEY AL [GORE], can I get a refund on some of those carbon credits?
