- Great news about the three American prisoners coming home from North Korea, although I am waiting to read why this is a bad thing from some former Obama Administration official.
- Victor Davis Hanson has an interesting column in Townhall this morning comparing the similarities of Truman and Trump. Not a comparison that I had thought about, but the parallels are though-provoking. townhall.com/columnists/victordavishanson/2018/05/10/truman-may-have-been-the-prototrump-n2479030
- A conservative college student at SUNY Oswego in New York has been chastised by the college administration for making a bunch of her fellow progressive students feel bad. Her crime? She stood up at an open mic session and described what it felt like to be a conservative Republican on an overwhelmingly liberal campus. OMG! http://www.wnd.com/2018/05/trump-lovin-student-threatened-for-exposing-leftist-attackers/
- A Chinese filmmaker of some renown has brought an 8-hour film to the Cannes Film Festival documenting the brutality and horror of Mao's gulags in China as experienced by his victims. China, you know - that wonderful country that many of our politicians and intellectuals would like to emulate. Gulags are always the result of absolute power. The story above from SUNY Oswego describes the very minor league version of how this gets started. http://www.scmp.com/magazines/post-magazine/arts-music/article/2145299/chinese-filmmaker-stuns-cannes-film-festival
- Iran attacks Israel directly for the first time with 20 rockets; Israel bombs the bejeepers out of Iranian targets all over Syria. Sounds about right. This is not heading for a happy ending. http://www.foxnews.com/world/2018/05/10/israel-strikes-nearly-all-iranian-infrastructure-in-syria-after-iran-rocket-attack-minister-says.html
- Glad to see all is normal, that is, nuts. Be careful out there!
