[Daily Caller] Juanita Broaddrick, a woman who has accused Bill Clinton of rape, has a hot take after the FBI raided the home of Trump associate Roger Stone Friday.
Broaddrick, who is a vocal supporter of President Trump, tweeted soon after the pre-dawn arrest of Stone that the FBI should raid the Clintons’ home.
"If the FBI showed up at the Clintons at 4 a.m., what would they find?" Broaddrick tweeted, "... certainly not Bill."

[Bus Tech] Learners have all headed back to school in January, to begin the new academic year and to continue their educational journeys.
It’s an exciting and nerve-wracking time for many parents and learners, says Louise Schoonwinkel, GM of Impaq, a subsidiary of FutureLearn Group. But for some, it’s an even more strenuous period as many may not yet have a place in a school.
This is a reality that affects thousands of children owing to the significant demand on our country’s schooling system.
As an example, at the beginning of this month, Gauteng education officials said they had 24,000 learners that still needed to be placed in a school.
The Gauteng Education Department further said it had managed to place around 11,000 of these 24,000 learners in various public schools across the province, but that it was still working around the clock to ensure that the outstanding 13,000 learners would have a school to go to by the end of this month.
The department’s commitment to place all these children in schools is commendable. However, there are alternative education models in South Africa that can help alleviate high demand on our schooling system, thereby helping government focus more on providing education for all.

Summary of some of the comments at the NYT: "It wasn't real socialism and besides it was Trump's fault." I continue to be impressed by the number of governments that walk, talk, and act like socialism/communism, but really aren't.

..cause they also believe in the magic money tree?
Socialism calls for the centralization of power. When such power is amassed, there never can be any right man, woman, or people to carry it out. That's what America's Constitutional founders understood. It is why it dissipates power among the states and within the national government. That is why our Left hates the written Constitution and seeks all means to corrupt it.

"Next time, We'll do it RIGHT™"
Heh, the old "it hasn't been done right" excuse. Given that no one has managed to do it at nation-state scale in a century, one starts to suspect there are some fundamental problems with the concept.
Hey, given that the whole idea was dreamed up by dead white men, why hasn't it been discredited by now?

Everyone that says 'they'll do it right" should move to the next socialist nation and help it along. Give up their passports and go full in on making socialism a success. Until then they are just idiots gambling with others misery.
[Motley Fool] What happened - Canadian cannabis grower Canopy Growth (TSX:WEED) (NYSE:CGC) saw its stock price spike to close 9.7% higher on Friday. You can thank investment bank Piper Jaffray for that.
This morning, Piper Jaffray -- which already had an overweight rating on the stock, as confirmed by financial news site TheFly.com -- raised its price target on those shares by a whopping 50%. Instead of $40, the price target at which Piper had previously pegged Canopy stock, the analyst now thinks the shares are worth $60.
So what - Why is Piper raising its target? The analyst explained that, in its view, the global market for marijuana has a potential for $250 billion to $500 billion in annual sales -- and could hit $15 billion to $50 billion in just the near term. (For comparison, Canopy Growth's own annual sales are just a hair over $70 million.)
So basically, Piper is saying there's a pretty huge market opportunity here for Canopy to grow into, and the company is well positioned to exploit it.
Now what - At least part of that growth now looks likely to happen in the U.S. as well. On Jan. 14, Canopy Growth secured a license to process hemp from the State of New York. It's a small entryway into the U.S. marijuana market, but as Piper Jaffray argues, it's a "tangible first step forward" and one that may pave the way to a long trajectory for U.S. growth.
[Guardian] Liberal values in Europe face a challenge "not seen since the 1930s", leading intellectuals from 21 countries have said, as the UK lurches towards Brexit and nationalists look set to make sweeping gains in EU parliamentary elections.
The group of 30 writers, historians and Nobel laureates declared in a manifesto published in several newspapers, including the Guardian, that Europe as an idea was "coming apart before our eyes".
"We must now will Europe or perish beneath the waves of populism," the document reads. "We must rediscover political voluntarism or accept that resentment, hatred and their cortege of sad passions will surround and submerge us."
They write of their regret that Europe has been "abandoned from across the Channel" ‐ an oblique reference to the drawn-out Brexit process that has arguably brought Anglo-European relations to their lowest point since the second world war.
And they say that unless efforts are made to combat a rising tide of populism, the EU elections will be "the most calamitous that we have ever known: victory for the wreckers; disgrace for those who still believe in the legacy of Erasmus, Dante, Goethe, and Comenius; disdain for intelligence and culture; explosions of xenophobia and antisemitism; disaster".
"Abandoned from across the Channel and from across the Atlantic by the two great allies who in the previous century saved it twice from suicide; vulnerable to the increasingly overt manipulations of the master of the Kremlin, Europe as an idea, as will and representation, is coming apart before our eyes," the text reads.

Wretchard:
The fundamental driver of the populist rebellion is the terrible realization that whether it's expensive suits or revolutionary garb they're mostly crooks.
**Wreckers**? What the HELL? Haven't heard that word in forever. That's right out of the Soviet playbook.
"Enough of ’building Europe’!" is the cry. Let’s reconnect instead with our "national soul"! Let’s rediscover our "lost identity"! This is the agenda shared by the populist forces washing over the continent. Never mind that abstractions such as "soul" and "identity" often exist only in the imagination of demagogues. You heard it here folks: they think people don't have soul or identiy.
Europe is being attacked by false prophets who are drunk on resentment, and delirious at their opportunity to seize the limelight. It has been abandoned by the two great allies who in the previous century twice saved it from suicide; one across the Channel and the other across the Atlantic. The continent is vulnerable to the increasingly brazen meddling by the occupant of the Kremlin. Europe as an idea is falling apart before our eyes. I bet you the writer as well as most of the people who read the article have attended more than one "FUCK YOU USA" protest. Now suddenly they want to come crying back for help. What kind of help do they want from the Americans, anyhow? I thought AmerKKKans were fascist bullies who need to keep the fuck out of Europe?
We count ourselves among the European patriots (a group more numerous than is commonly thought, but that is often too quiet and too resigned), who understand what is at stake here. Three-quarters of a century after the defeat of fascism and 30 years after the fall of the Berlin Wall there is a new battle for civilisation. Once again, I can't help notice the hypocrisy of those who harshly condemned patriotism suddenly worshiping patriotism. According to them, how does where you were born have any influence? Patriotism is for idiots.
Hence this exhortation to carry once more the torch of a Europe that, despite its mistakes, its lapses, and its occasional acts of cowardice, remains a beacon for every free man and woman on the planet. This could have been written by any American and been condemned as racist, jingoist claptrap that only a total moron could believe in. BUT, since we are evidently in Bizarro World, it's OK when they do it.
It's just astounding that so many highly educated intellectuals have zero self-awareness and freely use the tools of the enemies they spent decades hating.

[FoxNews] I told President Trump recently that no president since Abraham Lincoln has faced the kind of unending bias and hostility from the media that he is living through. Hey! Wasn't Abe a Republican?
Upon Lincoln’s election, the Memphis Daily Appeal wrote on November 13, 1860:
"Within 90 days from the time Lincoln is inaugurated, the Republican Party will be utterly ruined and destroyed. His path is environed with so many difficulties, that even if he had the ability of Jefferson and the energy of Jackson, he would fail, but he is a weak and inexperienced man, and his administration will be doomed from the commencement.
Just as President Trump rails against "fake news," President Lincoln felt that a significant front in his war to preserve the Union was against the news media. This made Lincoln highly critical and skeptical of the media.
According a reporter who had regular access to the president, Lincoln often said "the worst feature about newspapers was that they were so sure to be 'ahead of the hounds,' outrunning events, and exciting expectations which were sure to be disappointed."
Lincoln, who was embroiled in a Civil War in which the very survival of the country was at stake, was also much tougher and more aggressive with the media than anyone could imagine in the modern era. This included shutting down newspapers and imprisoning journalists who supported secession from the Union. Be still, my heart!
You decide whether attacks on President Trump's hair or attacks on Lincoln's intelligence are more demeaning.
President Lincoln was a very different man facing a radically more dangerous situation than President Trump. Yet each president represents a direct threat to a national establishment by an outsider.

Well, I don't think DJT has visited Ford theater yet, so THAT can't be it.....
[Ahval] If anyone expected much from Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan’s visit to Moscow this week, they had reason to feel let down. Talks with Russian President Vladimir Putin did not yield anything of significance on the big issues between the two countries.
The Turkish president failed to win an express go-ahead from the Kremlin to set up a security zone in northeast Syria following President Donald Trump’s promised withdrawal of the 2,000 U.S. troops there. Nor was there an announcement about the fate of the rebel-held enclave of Idlib where the Hayat Tahrir as-Sham (HTS), a radical grouping once allied to al Qaeda, has gained ground.
What Putin and Erdogan chose to stress instead, during their joint press conference, was the burgeoning cooperation between Turkey and Russia in energy, trade and tourism. Yet even though ventures worth billions such as the TurkStream pipeline to carry gas from Russia across the Black Sea to Turkey, and the Akkuyu nuclear power plant being built by Russian firms in Turkey matter immensely, it is clear that Syria was at the centre of the talks.
Erdogan has not given up hope that Russia will ultimately approve a Turkish offensive into Syrian Kurdish-controlled lands east of the River Euphrates. He made the case for it in an op-ed published in the highbrow Moscow daily Kommersant, mirroring an earlier piece he wrote for the New York Times.
Russia is not necessarily against such a scenario, but Putin has made it clear that Turkish intervention should happen on Russia’s terms. At the joint press conference, the Russian president acknowledged that Ankara had legitimate security concerns. But then hastened to add that the 1998 agreement signed in Adana by Turkey and Syria charts the way forward.
Back then, the Syrian government agreed to outlaw the Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK) as a terrorist organisation, close its camps, stop arming it and expel PKK leader Abdullah Öcalan from its territory. Yet what was once a Syrian concession under threat of all-out war made by Turkey now serves Putin as an argument demanding that Erdogan accept Syrian President Bashar Assad as a partner.
Russia’s stance that the Syrian government should take control over the northeast of the country remains firm. If Turkey wants to get rid of the Kurdish forces from Syria, it should coordinate with Damascus.

...It wasn’t brilliant ‐ it was obvious. She was counting on you to set up as a do-or-die test for Trump over something where she and Chuck Schumer held a veto. Thanks to Paul Ryan and the Fredocons, the House belongs to the Democrats, and the Senate can’t pass anything without 60 votes and we have 52 plus Mitt. So Trump can’t build a wall without their OK, and the emergency power thing is no panacea ‐ it will last about 30 seconds before some Obama judge enjoins it.
...Name the Republican you want to replace him with. Who’s the guy who is going to stand up to the cultural fascists like Trump? Who’s going to fight for you harder?

Was it Sun Tzu who said "It ain't over until it's over"? Somehow I suspect Trump is not done with this. We shall see.

[Independent Record] "Every student learns differently" was a statement echoed by many during Thursday's National School Choice Week rally at the Montana Capitol.
The rally, hosted by Americans for Prosperity and the Montana Family Foundation, was attended by about 70 people, including Elsie Arntzen, Montana's superintendent of public instruction.
Signs carried by some of those brave enough to face the cold at the Capitol read "Greater education comes from greater choice" and "Education opportunity for all!"
Proponent Jeff Laszloffy, president of the Montana Family Foundation, said school choice is important because "every child deserves the best."
"It’s the chance for every parent and student to find their best educational fit," Laszloffy said. "Whether that be public, private or home-school."
School choice advocates seek to make public funds available for private schools. This includes private, charter and home-school programs and is in addition to any tuition those schools might charge.
These public dollars could come in forms ranging from tuition tax credits to tax removals, school vouchers or other education services.
Those opposed to school choice often counter that public monies already provide a public school option to students and should not be used to fund private education.
I bet the government would love to apply this to home schools as well.
The perfect way around castle doctrine.
"You need to let us in and tell you what to do in your own home for teh chilllderun. Oh, and we'll need to quarter Antifa and molesting trannies here, too. Power of the purse, bitches."
[The Hill] The indictment of former Trump associate Roger Stone follows a long pattern that should raise serious concerns about the special counsel investigation.
Like virtually all of these indictments, the indictment of Stone does not charge any substantive crimes relating to Russia that were committed before Robert Mueller was appointed as special counsel. It charges crimes that grew out of the investigation itself and were allegedly committed after Mueller was appointed.
Recall that Mueller’s primary job was to uncover crimes that already occurred relating to Russian involvement in the 2016 election. He also was authorized to investigate and prosecute crimes growing out of the investigation, such as perjury and obstruction of justice, but this role was secondary to the primary one.
Well, it turns out that the secondary role has produced many more indictments of Americans than the primary one. A review of all the indictments and guilty pleas secured by Mueller shows that nearly all of them fall into three categories.
(1) Process crimes growing out of the investigation itself, such as false statements, perjury, obstruction of justice and witness tampering. These crimes resulted from the investigation itself. That doesn’t make them less serious, but it is relevant to evaluating the overall success or failure of Mueller’s primary mission.
(2) Crimes that occurred before Mueller was appointed but that cover unrelated business activities by individuals associated with President Trump. The object of these indictments is to pressure the defendants to provide evidence against the resident.
(3) One indictment against Russian individuals who will never be brought to justice in the United States. This indictment was largely for show.
Mueller’s tactic, as described by U.S. District Judge T.S. Ellis, III, is to find crimes committed by associates of President Trump and to indict them in order to put pressure on them to cooperate. This is what Judge Ellis said about the earlier indictment of former Trump presidential campaign chairman Paul Manafort: "You don’t really care about Mr. Manafort’s bank fraud ‐ what you really care about is what information Mr. Manafort could give you that would reflect on Mr. Trump or lead to his prosecution or impeachment."
Judge Ellis also pointed out the dangers of this tactic: "This vernacular to ’sing’ is what prosecutors use. What you got to be careful of is that they may not only sing, they may compose." This is all too common a tactic widely employed by prosecutors, particularly in organized crime and other hierarchical cases. But the fact that it is common does not make it right. Civil libertarians have long expressed concern about the tactic of indicting someone for the primary purpose of getting them to cooperate against the real target.
I have been writing about this for decades. In fact, I coined the term "compose" that Judge Ellis cited. But most fair-weather civil libertarians have remained silent with regard to Mueller because his target is President Trump, who they despise. The American Civil Liberties Union, which is flush with cash since Trump became president, has expressed little criticism of Mueller’s anti-civil liberties tactics.
It seems clear that the manner by which Roger Stone was arrested ‐ an early-morning raid on his home, observed by media ‐ was intended to put pressure on him to cooperate. Ordinarily, a white-collar defendant is allowed to self-surrender to authorities, unless there is fear of escape, which does not appear to be the case here, as evidenced by his low bail. Whether Stone "sings" or "composes" remains to be seen.
He has said he would never cooperate, but attorney Michael Cohen said he would take a bullet for President Trump ‐ before he turned against him in an effort to get a reduced sentence. Prosecutors have many weapons at their disposal to get reluctant witnesses to cooperate, such as threatening to indict family members as in the Michael Flynn case. Civil libertarians should be concerned about the tactics being used by Mueller to get witnesses to sing. All Americans should be concerned about the ends-justify-the-means approach taken by the special prosecutor.
If, in the end, Mueller comes up relatively empty on substantive crimes relating to Russia that were committed before he was appointed, and can point only to the three categories of alleged crimes described above, it will be difficult to declare his investigation a success, or his appointment justified by the results.
Based on what we have seen thus far, it would have been far better if a nonpartisan commission of experts, like the 9/11 Commission, had been appointed to investigate Russian involvement in the 2016 election and to make recommendations about how to prevent Russia from trying to influence future American elections.

"For there has never been a protracted war from which a country has benefited," counseled the Chinese military strategist Sun Tzu over 2500 years ago. Its physical caliphate is indeed destroyed, but as a symbiotic system comprised of ideologically linked components that drew mutual benefit from each other’s existence, ISIS is far from defeated. The remaining components - multiple regional wilayats (provinces), and an international cloud of aspirants ‐ still threaten the international order.
"The first, the supreme, the most far-reaching act of judgment that the statesman and commander have to make is to establish . . . the kind of war on which they are embarking; neither mistaking it for, nor trying to turn it into, something that is alien to its nature. This is the first of all strategic questions and the most comprehensive."
ISIS always has been savvy and adept at strategic communications; sometimes, as in this instance, although certainly coincidental, the timing could not have been better for them.

[The Federalist] This week the governor of New York signed into law a bill designed to expand a woman’s ability to have an abortion. Not only does it remove abortion from the criminal code, it allows for abortion up to 24 weeks’ gestation. After 24 weeks, an abortion may still be performed if the mother’s health, including her mental well-being, is deemed at risk. Non-doctors have also been given the legal ability to perform abortions.
The top of Freedom Tower‐a building built to show the world the strength and resolve of the American people in the aftermath of a terrible tragedy‐was lit up in pink to celebrate the signing. It celebrates a bill that promises to kill more humans than terrorists ever will.
Celebrate? Really? There should have been people crying and gnashing their teeth in the streets. Sackcloth and ashes should be the clothing of choice, not just among New Yorkers, but all Americans.
A few years ago I got a call from to a friend who had formerly lacked strong convictions about the abortion debate. He was flabbergasted. While driving in New York, an ad about abortion came on his radio. It compared women’s reproductive choices to choosing a hair or nail color. He was furious.
His words have never left me: "Whatever my opinion on abortion, the act is not comparable to getting a haircut. It is not a decision that should be made in haste. It is the ending of a life, or a potential life. To treat it casually and carelessly is a travesty."
What happened this week is a travesty. But New York Senate Majority Leader Andrea Stewart-Cousins viewed it as a win for women. "Unfortunately for years, barriers to women’s rights were up...Today, we are tearing those barriers down."

[ARABNEWS] The proliferation of ballistic missiles around the world is a real threat, not only to the US but to many of its allies. This is why US President Donald Trump ...New York real estate developer, described by Dems as illiterate, racist, misogynistic, and what ever other unpleasant descriptions they can think of, elected by the rest of us as 45th President of the United States... ’s latest speech on the subject, and his administration’s recently published Missile Defense Review, are so timely.
During his speech at the Pentagon last week, Trump laid out his vision clearly, saying: "Our goal is simple, to ensure that we can detect and destroy any missile launched against the United States anywhere, anytime, anyplace." While some might dismiss this as the usual Trumpian rhetoric, he is right to focus on improving America’s missile defense capability.
A strong and robust missile defense system serves as an important component of America’s national security architecture. A capable missile defense system gives policymakers more time to make decisions during a crisis, and offers the US a greater ability to deter attacks. If an attack does occur, a missile defense system can protect vital infrastructure and population centers.
