LOLZ — LAWS DON’T APPLY TO THE CLINTONS: Did Bill Clinton Break Voting Laws in Massachusetts?

HIGHER EDUCATION BUBBLE UPDATE: John Leo: Why Evelyn Waugh Became A Female. Heh.

WELL, THAT DIDN’T TAKE LONG: “Is #MSNBCSoWhite? The departure of Melissa Harris-Perry raises the issue,” Washington Post media reporter Paul Farhi writes.

Harris-Perry’s own initial thoughts on leaving the network that employed for four years are much more difficult to ascertain.

Related: This incident is yet another reminder why Comcast-NBC continues to pay its protection money to Al Sharpton.

More: Harris-Perry decries “culture of fear” at channel — a far cry from the days when (the long departed) Keith Olbermann was bragging “Phil” — MSNBC President Phil Griffin “thinks he’s my boss.”

HOPE: Food Stamp Users Near Record High Despite Low Unemployment Rate.

Perhaps Bernie Sanders is onto something about the “real unemployment rate.”

THE WAPO’S GOT A FEVAH, AND NEEDS TO GODWINIZE DONALD TRUMP YET AGAIN: Washington Post warns on Trump: Hitler was elected, too:

“[Y]ou don’t have to go back to history’s most famous example, Adolf Hitler, to understand that authoritarian rulers can achieve power through the ballot box,” the Post’s editorial board said Tuesday, explaining how it considers the casino tycoon’s bid for the White House a “threat to democracy.”

Add that to the Post’s back to back articles late last month, which compared Trump “to the Pope-appointed emperor Charlemagne, who ‘ordered thousands executed’ twelve centuries ago,” as Tom Blumer spotted in a post at NewsBusters, which also quoted from the piece we mentioned here as well, by “Danielle Allen, ‘a political theorist at Harvard University and a contributing columnist for The Post,’ [who] wrote that with Trump’s progress towards achieving the U.S. presidency thus far has led her to understand ‘exactly how Hitler could have come to power in Germany.’ Yeah, she went there.”

And yet, as Glenn wrote late last month, “The Germans Have Spoken: 6 ways Donald Trump is nothing like Adolf Hitler. There’s also that whole having-a-Jewish-daughter thing.”

Obviously, the Post isn’t going to let those little details slow them down.

RUSSIAN PROSECUTORS: Woman Who Decapitated Child Didn’t Act Alone.

Before a Moscow court approved Gulchekhra Bobokulova’s arrest for two months, prosecutors told the court they believe there are individuals who “incited” her to carry out the slaying and they are still at large. The suspect is expected to be charged with murder later this week.

Investigators, however, said earlier that the suspect, who is married, appeared to be mentally unstable.

The motive for the slaying is not known.

They might try looking into that alleged “Allahu akbar!” thing.

Although my paranoid side wonders if the murder wasn’t a false flag operation involving Russian intelligence. There’s been speculation dating back to 1999 that former KGB officer Vladimir Putin is fond of those.

POWER AND RELIABILITY: “At about a quarter past 10 on Saturday night, the High Flux Isotope Reactor achieved an amazing milestone — 1 million megawatt days of operation. It demonstrated the longevity and overall reliability of the world-class research reactor over the past half-century.”

REAL CLEAR POLITICS HAS THE UPDATED DELEGATE COUNT, and as of this morning non-Trump trails Trump by four.

TED CRUZ WINS ALASKA GOP CAUCUSES, ACCORDING TO NBC, CNN, AND USA TODAY.

IN MEMORIUM: Andrew Breitbart died four years ago today.

I first met Andrew at the launch of PJM in New York a decade ago; our paths would cross numerous times afterwards, including my first interview with him in December of 2005 to discuss his first book, Hollywood Interrupted, which is online here, along with a transcription.

UPDATE: As Michael Walsh wrote on this day in 2012, “We have lost our bravest warrior, but we must continue his good fight.” Amen.

QUOTE OF THE DAY “‘A couple of years ago, [socialist Venezuela’s] then-minister of education admitted that the aim of the regime’s policies was ‘not to take the people out of poverty so they become middle class and then turn into escuálidos’ (a derogatory term to denote opposition members). In other words, the government wanted grateful, dependent voters, not prosperous Venezuelans.’”

Or to put it another way, “They’ll turn us all into beggars ’cause they’re easier to please. . . .”

21st CENTURY HEADLINES: Punk is having a midlife crisis – just like its aging fans.

Well, these things can happen when a once-revolutionary genre of music has been around for over 40 years — the same length of time that the big bands of the jazz era had been existence, when punk arrived in the mid-’70s. As Pete Townshend wrote (partially in response to the arrival of punk), “The Music Must Change” — not “The Music Must be Permanently Freeze Dried In Time.”
