How it’s playing out in the Democrat Party. I wonder if AOC has even read it? Or if she has, if she understood the allegory, or just thought it was a strange story about farm animals?

How awful it must be to be a thinking person in a modern “university.”
Could the U.S. face it in the Trump era?
The Obama FBI and DOJ were certainly acting like secret police.
…in color.
The Obama Justice Department prevented the FBI from pursuing the proper charge(s) against Clinton.
A frightening dispatch from the educational apocalypse. One note, though.
Amidst all the imbecilic angst over the "sexual assault" by the sailor on the nurse, it's worth noting that they weren't celebrating the defeat of the Nazis — that had happened three months earlier. They were celebrating the end of the war, with the defeat of Japan.

My buddy Michelle Hanlon was on NPR yesterday, and the LA Times has an approving editorial.
She needs financial support to fight the Deep State.
SCOTUS has finally ruled that states can’t raise money with huge fines and civil forfeitures. RBH wrote the opinion.
Now, let’s take on prison rape.
The Millennials can’t remember very much – and they don’t learn very much either. It’s easy being hot for socialism or communism when you actually have a very little idea of what it is and what it did throughout the 20th century. And the Ys have that ignorance in spades; one third of them think that George W Bush killed more people than Stalin and 42 per cent have never heard of Mao – but over 70 per cent agree with Bernie Sanders. Some research suggests that only 15 per cent actually have a correct understanding of socialism. It’s not just politics; the Millennials are the most woefully undereducated and miseducated generation in a very long time. To be fair, that’s not strictly their fault; that attaches itself again to their Boomer grandparents who have been in charge of our failing education systems during this time. Combine the modern indoctrination-cum-dumbification taking place in schools and universities with the attention span-killing impact of information technology and social media, and you have a barely literate cohort, which is simply not equipped with the necessary mental tools to learn about the real world even if they wanted to.
Any surprises that socialism is now nearly synonymous with Gen Y?
This is a disaster.
[Late-morning update]
Socialists are parasites.
Yes.
