GOOD NEWS: Cops nab Depauw's rock-arranging racists.

And the 'serial defecator' was caught as well.

Note well the connection: the 'rock-arranging racists' are a group of stupid kids; the 'serial defecator' is [at least theoretically] a role model for those stupid kids.

SHOE on politics and politicians:

From the comments: "Surely you just mean the other person’s political party! My party has the sacred duty of defining the truth in all matters, and my cable news has the sacred duty to tell me that truth so I know what to think each day."

#RESIST! "How long before a federal judge in Hawaii orders the Korean War must continue?"

BUT, BUT ... IT WAS ACCIDENTAL: Democratic Party members in Lubbock, Texas, have been getting blasted on Facebook for cropping First Lady Melania Trump out of a now-viral picture from Barbara Bush’s funeral.

One has to admit the Democrats certainly know how to make fools of themselves.

IF TRUMP WANTS TO BE THE DEREGULATOR-IN-CHIEF, his work is just beginning.

[But] it will take a far more aggressive effort, and significant help from Congress, to effect any lasting drainage of the regulatory swamp. In 2017, even this most regulation-averse administration signed off on 3,281 new federal rules, and another 1,834 were in the pipeline at year's end. If Trump truly intends to be the Deregulator-in-Chief, he has a lot more work to do.

I suspect the bureaucratic state will have to be starved into submission; I hope President Trump has the toughness to do it.

SOD OFF, SWAMPY: Stop liberal bullying; tell them to 'buzz off'.

And mock them. Be sure to mock them.

POWERLINE: Our deranged press corps.

The White House press corps is utterly deranged by its hatred for President Trump and its determination to help its party crush his administration. A lot of people, sadly, aren’t very good at their jobs. But I doubt that you could find, anywhere in our vast country, a group of people who are as terrible at their jobs as the members of the White House press corps.

I wonder if the White House press corps hasn't been eating too much Romaine lettuce?

NO LONGER AN ENGINEER JOKE:

What's the biggest problem with electrical engineers?
Finding power cords long enough to get them out to the job sites.

Because technology: with lithium ion batteries, power cords are no longer required.

TRIPLING DOWN ON STUPID. Maxine Waters to Kanye West: Don't talk 'out of turn'.

Finally, the slaves are leaving the plantation. Soon the only ones left will be academics, millennials, and social justice warriors (but I repeat myself).

AMERICA'S 'FOREVER' FIRST LADY: She's right, you know; Michelle Obama will forever be known as the spouse of the worst President in American history.

The smug is strong in the Obamas....

CHANCE THE RAPPER: “Black People Don’t Have To Be Democrats.” Plantation owners hysterical.

BERNIE SANDERS to propose federal 'jobs for all' plan.

Bernie's problem is getting enough (tax) money to pay for it, but in Bernie's World, all your income is his.

ANOTHER VICTORY FOR DEATH PANELS: Alfie Evans, UK toddler at center of legal battle, dies.

THE WHITE HOUSE CORRESPONDENTS DINNER didn't fare well on Twitter.

Even with some Democrats....

PAY TO SLAY: Congressmen call for disclosure of U.S. aid to Palestinian terrorists.

With Trump as President and Pompeo as Secretary of State, they may have a chance to rid ourselves of Palestinian aid.

A BITTER PILL (FOR THEM): Making liberals take their own medicine.

But they won't can't get the message.

A CHICKEN-AND-EGG QUESTION: Did twits create Twitter? Or did Twitter create twits?

BIRKENSTOCK-BOOTED THUGS: Parkland teacher defends officer’s interrogation of pro-2nd amendment student Kyle Kashuv.

I'm leaning toward believing that Birkenstock-booted thugs are worse than the jack-booted thugs of yesteryear....

POWERLINE'S WEEK IN PICTURES: Yes, we Kayne. My favorite:

That's why the Dimocrats (not a spelling error) hate him; he negotiates much better deals.

Now go see the rest.

NOT YOU: Who controls your kid's lives? Two down for the Brits; how many to go?

And you really want ObamaCare's death panels?
