Jonathan Turley points out how nutty this is.
I wonder how the DC Court of Appeals will rule? They certainly didn’t do me any favors. It may end up in the Supreme Court.

I have never envied cops. But it would sure help them if there were fewer laws to enforce.

Now looks even worse. One wouldn’t have thought that possible, but here we are.
Meanwhile, the slapfight between Rosenstein and McCabe has begun.
Amazon Warehouse Fire
When I saw the headline, I wondered where in LA it was. But the hed is wrong; Redlands is nowhere near LA. It’s east of San Bernardino.
It does look suspicious, though.
Defunding The Police
Is it libertarian?
Why no, no it’s not. As he points out, there are a number of things we could do to solve the problem that are libertarian, but that isn’t one of them.

Replacing the police department with a “transformative new model.”
Good luck with that.

Rosenstein
I watched some of the testimony this morning. Basically, he played dumb bureaucrat who got played by the FBI. In so doing, he threw McCabe under the bus. He’ll be a key witness at trial. The deer-in-the-headlights look as Ted Cruz excoriated him was amusing.
I wish that I was surprised that the Democrats attempted to downplay what happened. They used to pretend to care about the use of foreign-surveillance techniques to spy on Americans. I guess Orange Man Bad covers all sins.

What a mealy-mouthed twerp.
