IT’S DEJA LBJ ALL OVER AGAIN: Oops, We Started a Race War!

JONAH GOLDBERG ON THE ADVENTURES OF SUPER HILLARY!

“There has never been any man or woman more qualified for this office than Hillary Clinton,” President Obama declared this week. Take that Jefferson! Sit your mansplaining ass down, Ike! Hillary’s here.

There’s a reason she wears those smocks that make her look like the United Federation of Planets’ ambassador to Rigel 7: She’s just light years ahead of the rest of us.

* * * * * * * *

Again, she can do it all . . . except for one thing. She can’t handle the Internet. It’s her kryptonite. She’s helpless against its foreign ways.

All you have to do is say “e-mail” and she sheds IQ points faster than a Mr. Potato Head loses his facial features when thrown into an industrial blender. Giving her a computer is as pointless as giving an abacus to a basset hound. When asked if she wiped her server, she responded, “You mean like with a cloth?” In her initial statement about her server set up, she reassured the American people that the server was secure because “it was on property guarded by the Secret Service and there were no security breaches.”

If your knowledge of how this new-fangled Internet contraption device works is more sophisticated than Hillary’s, click the above hyperlink to be transported — as if by some alien form of magick — to another Website that allows you to read the entirety of the virtual page on the World Wide Web.

RICOCHET INTERVIEWS HEATHER MACDONALD ON THE WAR ON COPS:

We’re in the midst of the greatest delegitimation of law enforcement in recent memory. Certainly the Obama Administration has been the most anti-law enforcement administration in recorded history.

And the effects of this [that] we see promulgated by the #BlackLivesMatter movement and its media enablers is that officers are backing off of proactive policing. And as a result, crime in big cities, above all cities with large Black populations is going up at a very alarming rate.

Fundamentally transformed. And note that in order to appease the #BlackLivesMatter crowd, Hillary is perfectly fine rolling back the policing reforms signed into law by her husband two decades ago.

QUESTION ASKED AND ANSWERED: So Why Aren’t People Buying Electric Cars?

When Obama tried to promote the Chevy Volt as a new-fangled sort of “People’s Car” ready for the Brave New American Environmental Gleischaltung, I tried to do my part in 2010 to help their advertising campaign!

BETTER CALL SAUL! GOP Lawmaker Pushes Bill BANNING EPA Officials From Airline Travel:

The amendment is likely an effort to get EPA officials to practice what they preach. Republicans have criticized top EPA officials for logging thousands of air travel miles while issuing regulations on how much carbon dioxide can be emitted by power plants, cars and other sources.

EPA Administrator Gina McCarthy and the head of EPA’s clean air office Janet McCabe both said they travel home from Washington, D.C. on weekends to visit their families. McCarthy regularly goes to Boston, Massachusetts, and McCabe heads out to Indianapolis, Indiana on weekends.

McCabe has also spent a lot of time travelling around the country promoting the agency’s so-called Clean Power Plan — a set of rules aimed at cutting carbon dioxide emissions from power plants.

Texas Republican Rep. Lamar Smith has sent two letters to EPA in the last few months, asking about McCabe’s travel.

“In light of President Obama’s 2015 Executive Order, as well as McCabe’s role as the EPA’s chief proponent of the Clean Power Plan, McCabe’s routine travel raises significant questions as to her commitment toward furthering the reduction of carbon emissions that she promotes in her official capacity on the taxpayer’s dime,” Smith wrote.

In 2014, the EPA released a photo album titled “A Day In The Life of the EPA Administrator” that shows what McCarthy does on a typical day, including the fact that she flies home nearly every weekend to spend time with her family.

As Obama and Hillary’s mentor would say, “Make the enemy live up to its own book of rules…You can kill them with this because no one can possibly obey all of their own rules.”

AUTHOR OF BEN HUR SAVES WASHINGTON: The Battle of Monocacy, July 9, 1864. Union Major-General Lew Wallace and an ad hoc force delay Confederate Lieutenant-General Jubal Early’s army at the Monocacy River (near Frederick, Maryland). The multi-talented Wallace led a fascinating life.

YES: Obama again blames the guns, not the shooters or their hatreds.

Just as he did after the Orlando shooting, the president of the United States spent more time blaming guns for the mass shooting against law enforcement Thursday night than the people who pulled the triggers or the hatred that motivated them.

Speaking from Poland, where he’s attending the NATO summit, Obama used the shooting death of five law enforcement officers and the injury of six more as a pretext for another call for more gun control.

“When people are armed with powerful weapons, unfortunately it makes attacks like these more deadly and tragic,” Obama said. “In the days ahead we’re going to have to consider those realities.”

The police shootings came during a demonstration in Dallas, Texas following the police shooting deaths of black men in Louisiana and Minnesota earlier this week.

After the police killings, he said the reaction in Dallas was “symptomatic of a broader set of racial disparities” in the U.S. We know from statistics that more black men were killed by cops in 2015 than cops were killed for felonious reasons in the same year. More whites are killed by cops than blacks, but as a percentage, blacks are more likely to be killed by police.

But the real issue here is that no innocent person should be gunned down, whether they are a black man or a police officer. And to shoot at law enforcement simply in order to intimidate cops is to attack the law itself.

Well, Obama’s just following the template helpfully illustrated by Jon Gabriel:

CRAZY CHRISTIANE AMANPOUR – “She’s a walking parody of an unhinged leftist ‘reporter,’” Andrew Badinelli writes at NRO:

I would cast my presidential election vote based on a “Which Candidate Are You?” BuzzFeed quiz, ask for Trump’s recommendation on skin-care products, and call Hillary Clinton for tech support before I would rely on Amanpour for an objective view of the world. For years, the mainstream media have reassured viewers of reporters’ objectivity. Lefties everywhere deny the existence of liberal media bias while swiping away Salon push notifications on their iPhones. But at least talking heads such as Chris Matthews — who has made no pretense about what sends a thrill up his leg — are more open about the leftward slant of their opinions. Amanpour — who has made the laughable claim to CBS’s Lesley Stahl that “no one knows” her biases — pretends to channel the spirit of Woodward and Bernstein. In fact, she is merely spreading propaganda as quickly as she can read a teleprompter (or fumble through notes).

I always have to laugh at the Democrat activists with bylines who still use the “no one knows my biases” excuse — not only does no one believe it anymore (if they ever did), but it’s a vestigial holdover from the earliest days of the industry, when there were only three national networks, which had to at least pose as being neutral to serve a large and diverse nation. Today’s narrowcasted world of media allows consumers to pick and chose the journalists who (more or less) best match up with their own.

It’s even more fun when journalists play the “I have no idea what the biases of my colleagues are” game. Really? You’ve been covering politics since days of Gerald Ford and you still can’t deduce the biases of the people you work with every day? How do you tie your shoelaces Ralph Wiggum, let alone report on Capitol Hill? On very rare occasions, journalists get called on this sort of tack – including the aforementioned Lesley Stahl, whom when being interviewed on Fox in 2003 by Cal Thomas claimed, “Today you have broadcast journalists who are avowedly conservative…. The voices that are being heard in broadcast media today, are far more likely to be on the right and avowedly so, and therefore, more — almost stridently so, than what you’re talking about,” to which Cal responded, “Can you name a conservative journalist at CBS News?” Two guesses as to her answer.

THE DEATH CULT OF ENVIRONMENTALISM.

Curiously, that seems to be a leitmotif for much of the far left’s ideology.

ROBERT MCMANUS: No Equivalence: The premeditated murder of five Dallas cops was unjustifiable, under any circumstances.

To the untrained eye, the attack appears to have been well-planned and carried out with precision. In this respect, it was fundamentally different than the events that brought hundreds of demonstrators to downtown Dallas Thursday—the police-custody deaths of black men in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, and St. Paul, Minnesota, in a welter of chaos, confusion, and conflicting claims of guilt, innocence, and intent.

Baton Rouge and St. Paul, like so many of the similarly tragic police-custody deaths that preceded them, may have been the product of circumstance, or of incompetence, or maybe they were even crimes. Each must be examined in context and judged accordingly. But Dallas was cold-blooded murder—nothing more, nothing less. Attempts to assign equivalence to the horror of it—to suggest, as some are already doing, that Dallas is somehow just deserts for Baton Rouge or St. Paul or Baltimore or Ferguson, or even for Eric Garner’s death on Staten Island two long years ago—is morally repugnant.

Moreover, the claim on many lips that “guns” are the issue is correct only in the most abstract sense. To blame inanimate objects for Dallas, Orlando, or San Bernardino, is to deprive both the victims and their executioners of their fundamental humanity. The Dallas gunmen may be evil beyond comprehension, but it is their actions, not their weapons, that must be of principal concern to decent people. The killers, and not just the killing, must be condemned without equivocation. Far too few people are willing to do this. So, guns are an easy out.

Well, it’s the only way Dem politicans can avoid the contradiction of being anti-police but wanting urban centers to prosper. But as Richard Fernandez notes, the contradictions are coming home to roost.

SKYNET SMILES: The killer robot used by Dallas police appears to be a first.
