IT’S WHAT OUR SCHOOLS ARE TEACHING: Anti-Think and Safe Spaces. Trust me. Even if you send your kids to school, make sure you homeschool. Before or after or on weekends, but don’t let your kids learn to anti-think.
DELUSIONAL. BUT THEN THEY DID THE SAME WITH MICHELLE OBAMA: Sexist or just silly? Painting Hillary as a fashion icon.
TRANSPARENTLY CROOKED: You can see right through Obama aide’s ‘transparency’ lies.

About two years ago, I saw an advert in London for the mobile service Three UK with a little girl riding a bicycle and singing the song, and it went viral. I nearly cried. After all these years, the song went back into the Top 20 in the UK. It keeps creeping back. It refuses to die.”

WHY DID ANTHONY WEINER LOSE HIS CAREER WHILE BILL CLINTON SKATED? “Weiner was punished precisely because his escapades were so pathetic. Everything about him, from that juvenile handle Carlos Danger (having your kid in the picture is a classy touch) to the fact that he apparently never actually got any live action, screams beta loser.”
NOPE. SHE WAS TOTALLY UPSTAGED BY TRUMP. Did you notice that Hillary Clinton gave a speech on “American exceptionalism” yesterday?

CRONYISM ALL THE WAY DOWN: Breaking: Email from 2009 shows top Clinton Foundation exec ask Abedin to get him & colleagues diplomatic passports.
UPDATE: More here. “Diplomatic passports are a prized asset, as significant benefits accrue to their holders. They are almost exclusively issued to government employees representing the United States in an official capacity. The Department of State requires applicants to present their official orders when procuring such documents. Individuals with diplomatic passports enjoy easy passage at international borders, access to special lines at airports, no tax liability on certain sources of income, and relaxed visa restrictions.”

OH, GOODY: Study Finds Increase in Temporary Paralysis Accompanied Zika Outbreaks.
In seven countries that recently experienced Zika outbreaks, there were also sharp increases in the numbers of people suffering from a form of temporary paralysis, researchers reported Wednesday.
The analysis, published online in The New England Journal of Medicine, adds to substantial evidence that Zika infections — even asymptomatic ones — may bring on a paralysis called Guillain-Barré syndrome.
The syndrome can be caused by a number of other factors, including infection with other viruses. Researchers studying the Zika epidemic in French Polynesia had estimated that roughly 1 in 4,000 people infected with the virus could develop the syndrome.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has said that the Zika virus is “strongly associated” with Guillain-Barré, but has stopped short of declaring it a cause of the condition.
The new data suggest a telling pattern: Each country in the study saw unusual increases in Guillain-Barré that coincided with peaks in Zika infections, the researchers concluded.
“It’s pretty obvious that in all seven sites there is a clear relationship,” said Dr. Marcos A. Espinal, the study’s lead author and the director of communicable diseases at the Pan American Health Organization, which collected data on confirmed and suspected cases of Zika infection and on the incidence of Guillain-Barré. “Something is going on.”
Ugh.
WELL, HE’S RIGHT: ‘Prepper’ Obama: Says nation is on its own, preparing is your ‘duty.’
