"The press release is out, and the usual serial bloviators are rushing to trumpet the news. July 2012 was the hottest ever on record!
“Yikes! We’re gonna roast! Global Warming!” they wail on Twitter and blogs.
The driver of this is AP’s Seth Borenstein, who never met a hot story he didn’t like.
Here’s a quote from that story Ouch July in US was hottest ever in history books:

Here’s a quote from that story Ouch July in US was hottest ever in history books:
The average temperature last month was 77.6 degrees. That breaks the old record from July 1936 by 0.2 degree, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. Records go back to 1895.…Three of the nation’s five hottest months on record have been recent Julys: This year, 2011 and 2006. Julys in 1936 and 1934 round out the top five.
Of course the first thing I do when I see these sorts of things is go look at the data.
It tells a far more interesting and credible story.
Here’s some graphs NCDC and Seth won’t ever put in a press release or AP story:
Now let’s compare to July 1936:
A few things stand out right away.
1. Due to regional weather pattern variability, one state in 1936 had below normal temperatures, Texas. Take the 1936 Texas below normal temperature out of the mix and there goes your 0.2F record making difference with July 2012.
2. Many states had warmer temperatures in 1936 than 2012.
Here’s a table, all numbers in degrees Fahrenheit..."

Edelweiss Uber alles :: SteynOnline"...~The moronization of society proceeds apace.
As we mentioned on the show, a bigshot New York Times correspondent thinks that playing "Edelweiss" at the White House is some kind of Nazi dog-whistle to Trump supporters.
It is tragic and profound the way even small artifacts of our inheritance get trashed in these witless arguments, so, if you want to know the real story of the very last song in the Oscar Hammerstein catalogue, here's what I had to say a couple of years back:
Read all!Not long after Rodgers & Hammerstein wrote the song, Theodore Bikel was leaving the theatre when he found a fan and fellow immigrant waiting at the stage door for his autograph: 'I love that "Edelweiss",' said the theatregoer. 'Of course, I have known it a long time, but only in German.'Not for the first time, Hammerstein had done too good a job. Just as his 'Ol' Man River' for Show Boat is assumed by many to be an authentic Negro spiritual, so 'Edelweiss' is assumed to be an authentic Austrian folk song. Not so. In both cases, a great craftsman manufactured them to solve a structural problem with the storytelling. But he did it so well that they have become for real what they were only intended to simulate..."

Corsi and I will hold Mueller accountable! - WND:
And, if the Deep State at DOJ will seek to cover up the crimes of prosecutors in the Bundy criminal cases, just imagine their intent and motivation to cover up the criminality of Mueller and his hack leftist staff. Mueller, which the swamp’s establishment on both sides of the aisle has falsely deemed a “man of great integrity,” will surely be added to the Protected Species Act, along with the Desert Tortoise (which DOJ and Bureau of Land Management goons used as a pretext to threaten the lives of the Bundys to try to drive them off their land at Bunkerville, Nevada.)
In light of this, along comes my brave co-“conspiracy theorist”(as the left likes to paint us) Dr. Jerome Corsi, who had been in Mueller’s crosshairs during his now-concluded “witch hunt.” Having been threatened by the special counsel with indictment if he did not agree to lie under oath so as to take the president down regarding nonexistent Russia collusion, Jerry, with my help and that of my co-counsel David Gray, stood his ground and said NO! Corsi would not be coerced to lie under oath before God and His Son, even when he was offered a so-called sweetheart deal to plead to one count of perjury with no jail time.

- Hanson on Trump, Mueller, Democrats, the media, and the deep state
He offered his thoughts on the Mueller investigation, the Trump presidency, and much more.
...He eventually calls this what it was.
An attempted coup:
An attempted coup:
This is in addition to the Stormy Daniels psychodrama, the Michael Cohen, the tax returns–so there’s been a sustained effort not to wait until 2020, but to remove the president of the United States under the idea that we are so moral and anointed unelected officials, we have a duty to somebody higher than the American people. And boil that down and it was a coup attempt to destroy the presidency before its tenure had expired.
And that’s just the first ten minutes.
The full interview lasts 49 minutes, and I highly recommend watching the whole thing. If you prefer, you can read the entire transcript here.

Judge Rules Flint Can Sue Federal Officials Over Water Contamination | The Daily Caller
Judge Rules Flint Can Sue Federal Officials Over Water Contamination | The Daily Caller:
A federal judge ruled Thursday that Flint citizens can move forward with lawsuits targeting the Environmental Protection Agency’s handling of the Michigan city’s lead contamination problems.
The EPA under former President Barack Obama was too slow to intervene in the case, according to U.S. Judge Linda Parker, who ruled that the federal government was not immune from legal action in the case. More than a dozen lawsuits were filed against Michigan and city officials after researchers discovered in 2016 that Flint’s water contained elevated levels of lead in 2014 and 2015.

How to steal an election!-----Aliens and Voter Fraud | Center for Immigration Studies
Aliens and Voter Fraud | Center for Immigration Studies
"Introduction
"IntroductionEvery year there are elections that are decided by a handful of votes. This happens far more frequently than one might guess statistically. It may be unlikely that an individual's single vote will determine the outcome of elections, but it may still add marginally to the set of votes needed to gain a majority.
...Notable Studies and Cases
There have been a number of accounts that detail alien voting fraud and its impact on the electoral system. While this is hardly a full review of all instances, the following cases highlight the need to address alien registration and voting.
2008 Presidential Election. A 2014 article published in the journal Electoral Studies found that "non-citizen voters likely gave Senate Democrats the pivotal 60th vote needed to overcome filibusters in order to pass health care reform."
The report also noted that "there is reason to believe non-citizen voting changed one state's Electoral College votes in 2008, delivering North Carolina to Obama."
The report also noted that "there is reason to believe non-citizen voting changed one state's Electoral College votes in 2008, delivering North Carolina to Obama."
...The Public Interest Legal Foundation suggested that the election of Virginia's attorney general in 2013, decided by only 164 votes, may have been decided by non-citizen voters..."

Should a White Man Be the Face of the Democratic Party in 2020? - The New York Times
"...Ms. Neal, a dental hygienist, made an agonized face at Mr. Johnson, her boyfriend.
Wouldn’t something be lost, she asked, if the historically diverse slate of 2020 Democrats was passed over?
“Personally, I’d love to see a woman,” Ms. Neal, also 27, said at the event on Thursday night.
“If people are being catty and holding gender or race against a candidate, it would break my heart.”
As former Vice President Joseph R. Biden Jr. prepares to enter the 2020 race this coming week, Democrats have seen the strong diversity in their field
Interviews with several dozen Democratic voters around the country show how the party, which enjoyed victories in 2018 that were powered by female and nonwhite candidates, is now grappling with two complicated questions about race, gender and politics in the Trump era.

MUST WATCH: Hilarious Little Girl Does Outstanding Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez Impersonation
MUST WATCH: Hilarious Little Girl Does Outstanding Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez Impersonation
There have been a lot of viral impersonations of Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez on social media, but none have been quite this hilarious and adorable.
Wearing glasses and bright red lipstick, a young girl brilliantly skewered the freshmen congresswoman in a way that put the current cast of Saturday Night Live to shame.
An AOC mini-me! She nails it!
“Like, I’m Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, aka AOC, and like, I want to talk about like, climate change, because like, there’s no doubt cow farts are making the climate change,” the girl’s rant begins.
“Like, in July the climate was 96 degrees and in February the climate was 36 degrees. O.M.G. like, that’s a huge change in the climate in only four months,” the girl continues after counting the months on her fingers.
The hilarious bit continues with the child claiming that the world is going to end in 12 years.
“Like, I also want to talk about socialism because socialism is so amazing! Like, socialism is actually short for social media.
Did you know that?
Like, I use social media so I’m a socialist — and like three of the most successful countries in the world are socialist too.
Venezuela, Facebook, and Twitter are all very successful socialist countries.”
The adorable impersonation concludes with the talented child asserting that she has a lot of friends who “moved to America from Facebook.”
Someone please give this child a television show!"

Yes, There is a Crisis at the Border | The Heritage Foundation
Yes, There is a Crisis at the Border | The Heritage Foundation:
Unlike past waves of immigrants, those now entering our country illegally are not primarily from Mexico, nor are they primarily single men. Instead, they come mostly from the Northern Triangle: Honduras, Guatemala, and El Salvador. Nearly two thirds (64 percent) of those coming in illegally arrive as either whole or partial families (i.e., parents with minor children) or are unaccompanied children.
The number trying to claim asylum also has been rising steadily. It is now commonplace for those who are apprehended crossing illegally and those who are denied entry at ports of entry to claim asylum. Most who claim asylum are able to pass the initial “credible fear” hearing, but only around 10 percent of Central Americans who claim asylum will ultimately be granted it.
