"Conclusion first, fact-gathering second — that's no way to run an investigation. The FBI should be held to a higher standard than that, especially in a matter of such great public interest and controversy," "

Today it is being denied in cities like Berkeley and Portland where local left-wing governments have contrived to deny rally permits while giving the masked thugs of their leftist Antifa allies a blank check to assault those whose views they oppose.

In Berkley, Boston and San Francisco, the First Amendment doesn’t exist anymore."

A first: Drug lowers heart risks by curbing inflammation

A first: Drug lowers heart risks by curbing inflammation:

  • People on the drug also had surprisingly lower cancer death rates, especially from lung cancer.
  • Doctors say the results on the drug open a new frontier.

Image result for yes meme"For the first time, a drug has helped prevent heart attacks by curbing inflammation, a new and very different approach than lowering cholesterol, the focus for many years.
People on the drug also had surprisingly lower cancer death rates, especially from lung cancer.
An anti-tumor effect is an exciting possibility, but it needs much more study because the heart experiment wasn't intended to test that.
Doctors say the results on the drug, canakinumab (can-uh-KIN-yoo-mab), open a new frontier.
Many heart attacks occur in people whose cholesterol is normal and whose main risk is chronic inflammation that can lead to clogged arteries.
"We suddenly know we can address the inflammation itself, the same way we learned almost 25 years ago that we could address cholesterol. It's very exciting," said the study's leader, Dr. Paul Ridker of Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston..."

DaTechGuy’s Laws of Media Outrage ANTIFA Election 2018/2020 Edition – Da Tech Guy Blog
the reality is those events are walking talking Trump 2020 ads that are going to coin votes for him in every swing state that the left has to win back if they are going to beat him next time around.
"Ever since I covered the Boston marches this month I’ve been explaining to anyone who will listen that these marches in general and ANTIFA in particular, while making leftists in blue states feel good and self righteous about themselves, are going to coin votes for Donald Trump.  
I got an awful lot of pushback on twitter for saying that celebrations of stifling free speech, these chants and the violence that came with them were politically foolish.  
Tweets like this were typical
Keep telling yourself that, I'm sure the voters in swing states who are not obsessively anti trump will buy your argument
All Trump has left is his "base" of idiots like you and Russian bots. He's done 8 months in. He has Senate and House and can't get zip done.
Accordingly like online leftists the media pretty much ignored ANTIFA’s labeling of all Trump supports as Fascists and Nazis and even defended their violence in accordance to the 1st law of Media outrage which states:
The level of Outrage or interest of the media and their allies on the left concerning any insult or prevarication concerning a person or thing will routinely be equal to the inverse of the degree of the political distance between said media / leftists and the target of said insult or prevarication at the time it is mad
We lo and behold the day after we were treated to ANTIFA chants of “No Trump, No Wall, No USA at all” the blogfather is noticing the same thing I am
I’ve noticed a sudden media pivot against Antifa in the last couple of days, which I assume means that someone has polled this stuff and it’s electoral poison for Democrats. Which should come as no surprise, unless you live in a Media Bubble.
And we’re seeing stuff like this from Joe Scarborough Mika and the panel:
as had Headline News:
Even Michael Moore has figured it out:
The Question is, why the sudden change? Well it’s all in accordance with DaTechGuy’s 2nd Law of Media Outrage
The level of acceptance of the positions and/or actions of any group or organization by the left and media is directly proportional to their current or potential value in electing liberal Democrats.

Why People Still Support Trump - Bloomberg

Image result for trump supportersWhy People Still Support Trump - Bloomberg
"A week ago I expressed the hope that President Donald Trump's lamentable performance after the Charlottesville protests would hurt his standing in the polls.
This didn't happen.
If there was a blip, it was in the other direction.
I'd be pleased if Trump's regrettable decision to pardon former sheriff Joe Arpaio dented his popularity, too, but I'm not holding my breath.
Trump's supporters are loyal. 
What is one to make of this?
There are two main theories of Trump's support.
  • One is that a large minority of Americans -- 40 percent, give or take -- are racist idiots. This theory is at least tacitly endorsed by the Democratic Party and the mainstream liberal media. 
  • The other is that a large majority of this large minority are good citizens with intelligible and legitimate opinions, who so resent being regarded as racist idiots that they'll back Trump almost regardless. They may not admire the man, but he's on their side, he vents their frustration, he afflicts the people who think so little of them -- and that's good enough.
...The second theory -- the correct theory -- is a terrible indictment of the Democratic Party and much of the media.
...Democracies that work make space for disagreement.
You can disagree with somebody in the strongest terms, believing your opponents to be profoundly or even dangerously mistaken.
But that doesn't oblige you to ignore them, scorn them, or pity them.
Deeming somebody's opinions illegitimate should be a last resort, not a first resort. 
Refusing to engage, except to mock and condescend, is both anti-democratic and tactically counterproductive..."

Prices Should Rise During Crises Like Hurricane Harvey - Reason.com

Prices Should Rise During Crises Like Hurricane Harvey - Reason.com:
"Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton is upset about "price gouging" during hurricane Harvey.
Some stores raised prices to $99 for a case of bottled water—$5 for a gallon of gas.
"These are things you can't do in Texas," he says.
Image result for significant penalties if you price gouge"There are significant penalties if you price gouge in a crisis like this."
There sure are: $20,000 per "gouge"—$200,000 if the "victim" is a senior citizen.
...Prices should rise during emergencies.
Price changes save lives.
That's because prices aren't just money—they are information.
Price changes tell suppliers what their customers want most, maybe chainsaws more than blankets, water more than flashlights.
"Quit your witch hunt," economist Don Boudreaux wrote Paxton.
"Government intervention is often justified as a means of correcting 'market failure.' But by enforcing prohibitions on 'price gouging' your office causes market failure."..."
