The US Air Force
Is it time to abolish it? This would help resolve things like the ongoing battle over the Warthogs. But he doesn’t address what to do with the space stuff. Or the missiles.
Trump, On Scalia
And then there’s all the mutual-admiration society with Vlad, while endorsing the murdering of journalists. Yes, let’s make him Commander-in-Chief.
ObamaCare
We were told there would be no arithmetic. https://t.co/KBQddrglwx

Why Trump Is Leading
…and why he will ultimately fail. An interesting Boydian analysis of the race.

Perp-Walk Shots
Ken White has some questions for Reuters:
Who leaked the time and place of the arrest? Was it an FBI agent, a prosecutor, staff, a coordinating local cop? How high up in the government did the decision to leak the arrest go? Did the leak violate the law? Did it violate the defendant’s rights? What was the government’s purpose in leaking the time and place of the arrest? How does this instance fit into the pattern of which arrests get leaked and which don’t? Which nonviolent defendants without records get arrested, and which get summonsed in (or self-surrender through arrangement with their lawyers), and why? What impact does a front-page picture of a defendant in handcuffs have on the jury pool? Is that impact a feature, or a bug, of leaking it? Was the leak intended to inflict extra-judicial humiliation and punishment on the defendant? If the government lies about whether or not it leaked, would you still keep it secret?
