[Babylon Bee] WASHINGTON, D.C.‐After a two-year-long investigation that included thousands of indictments, hundreds of search warrants, and several guilty pleas, Robert Mueller and the FBI managed to provide conclusive proof that Hillary Clinton was actually just a terrible candidate, sources confirmed Monday.
The official report summary indicated that the main factor in Clinton losing the election was not Russian collusion but her just being a really bad nominee.
"We have uncovered damning evidence that Hillary Clinton lost the election by colluding with the DNC to be the absolute worst possible candidate," Mueller said in his first public address since the historic report was delivered. "As we could not find any Russian collusion, this was the only thing we managed to prove."
"I mean, she lost to Donald Trump, for Pete's sake," he added, shaking his head.
Investigators showed that Clinton's extreme lack of charisma or likability, her awful public policy record, her constant disparagement of millions of Americans she disagreed with, and her terrible campaign strategies resulted in her defeat.
"The only collusion we found was between Hillary Clinton and her campaign to be really unlikable," Mueller continued. "And while she really is repulsive to so many Americans, that's unfortunately not a crime, so I can't charge her with anything. Ugh."
Dialogue was stabbed to death in a Pak university. Most recently, anyway. [DAWN] LAST week, Khalid Hameed, head of the English department at Bahawalpur’s Government Sadiq Egerton College, was stabbed to death by his student who accused him of promoting un-Islamic activities (a mixed welcome gathering). After the shocking incident, opposition leader Shahbaz Sharif ...Pak dynastic politician, brother of PM Nawaz Sharif, chief minister of Punjab... said that the fatal consequences of the difference of opinion should lead to a moment of national reflection.

Reasoning is a form of internal debate. It is a discursive practice that requires acknowledging and accommodating dissenting views. And this practice, of recognising, respecting and perhaps reconciling differing opinions, is something that Paks have forgotten how to do.
Also seen in Washington and on U.S. university campuses.

[Aljazeera] Golda Meir, Israel's only female prime minister, once commented on her fairly advanced years upon securing the country's top job, saying "Being 70 is no sin, but it's not a joke either."
But Meir, who was confirmed by the Knesset as prime minister 50 years ago on Sunday, was also renowned for her more xenophobic remarks, particularly at the expense of Palestinians.
"There were no such thing as Palestinians," she was quoted as saying in the Sunday Times and Washington Post in June 1969.
"When was there an independent Palestinian people with a Palestinian state? ... It was not as though there was a Palestinian people in Palestine considering itself as a Palestinian people and we came and threw them out and took their country away from them. They did not exist," Meir said.
For her critics, Meir's jingoistic comments concerning Palestinians remain one of her defining - and most damning - legacies.
[The Federalist] By recent headlines, it appears the culture of death, often conceived of as limited to abortion, has spilled into the world of the born. Infanticide by neglect is not only on the table, it is already in practice in states that do not have protections for aborted infants born alive. Yet infanticide is but one fang in the mouth of a Typhon we see emerging from the shadows, abortion being the head that holds it.
Legal abortion affects how special-needs and physically disabled people are seen by society and cared for, how much choice women feel they have in dealing with difficult pregnancies, and how babies born prematurely are treated. It lets men off the hook for caring for their children, not just granting supposedly consequence-free sex but depriving them of the opportunity to rise and meet the rewarding responsibilities of fatherhood.
Abortion fosters a culture of learned helplessness, where women are not encouraged to fight for their vulnerable little children and abortion is seen as the easiest solution to the "problem" of a child. It fosters a culture where motherhood is seen as an impediment to other pursuits rather than a precious and fulfilling calling.
As many harms as can be halted by ending abortion, we cannot defeat the culture of death by lopping off just that one head. To understand the full breadth of the civilizational threats posed by pro-death policies, we must shine a light on another head of that monster: assisted suicide. (For my purposes here, I will include euthanasia by lethal injection from a medical professional, into this definition).

Articles like these do not help the cause of stopping assisted suicide. I personally would be fully in favor of legalizing this practice... in a world where the government had no say in a person's end of life care. But when they have almost all of the say, this is wrong on every level. The government will, and has, used these laws to kill people, both for political reason, and for more general social engineering reasons.
But appealing to faulty moral arguments (and spending the front paragraphs talking about abortion instead of the actual subject of the body of the article) just makes the article less convincing. Abortion is murder, through and through. There is no system where it is okay. But if a person decides by themselves, in a healthy state of mind, there are states of mind or body they don't want to live through, I really have no problem with that. Making it morally equivalent makes people like me reflexively dislike the article, even though the cause is a good one.
[American Thinker] A woman named Bob Bland (yeah, I know) believes that the "Jewish establishment" caused the New Zealand mosque attack.
Bland shared a particularly nasty and nauseating posting on Facebook that blames Jews for the massacre.
Jerusalem Post:
On March 17, Bob Bland shared a post from Jesse Rabinowitz ‐ a social justice advocate ‐ who wrote that: "The same language and hate that folks spew against Sisters [Women's March co-leader] Linda Sarsour and Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minnesota) killed 54 Muslims in New Zealand. You can't stand in solidarity with the Muslim community and simultaneously disavow Muslim women for speaking their truths. American Jewish Establishment, I'm looking at you."
The share was not accompanied by any additional statement from Bland.
In the comments section, a follower called out Bland for suggesting "that you cannot feel sympathy for the tragedy that happened if you do not agree with Linda and Ilana." The comment also added: "My biggest fear is that the entire purpose of your post was to somehow insult or shame Jews."
It's now hateful to call an anti-Semite an anti-Semite? Who knew?
Bland later apologized, using the excuse that she's a mother and was busy doing mom things:
...but don't worry, she won't be banned like conservatives or MAGA hat wearing individuals. Only they are the vermin hateful morlocks. So says the SPLC, the official validator of bias for Facebook. (do I need to but a /sarc on that?)

No, it weren't the Juice. The guy who did it was a self-described eco-fascist who admires the ChiComs. He would happily murder your sisters for being invaders.
