OH. YEAH. MUCH SHOCKED FACE. SO SURPRISED!  Snack sales jump in states where weed is legal.

IN FAIRNESS, THE NORMAL LEVEL AT 5,577 FEET IS NOT ALL THAT HIGH:   Scientists discover radiation leak ‘100,000 times normal level’ from Russian nuclear sub wreck.

OKAY. AND?  Instagrammers flock to this picture-perfect Siberian lake that could kill them.

DOES THE SINAL SALUTE WITH THUMB AND FOREFINGER ON EITHER SIDE OF NOSE BRIDGE. HEAD INCLINED.  AND PRECISELY WHAT MAKES THIS NEWS?  I left the priesthood to become a woman.

BUT OUR LAST PRESIDENT PAID DANE GELD. AND AT BEST THEY HAVE A SHAKY UNDERSTANDING OF THE US, FILTERED THROUGH OUR MEDIA:  Iran’s Escalating Tensions is a Dangerous Game.

I DON’T KNOW. SEEMS TO ME ONLY REASON THE LEFT IS PURSUING THIS IS YET ANOTHER ATTEMPT TO “GET” TRUMP. EVEN IF IT MAKES NO SENSE: Jeffrey Epstein. Will God Win?

SEBASTIAN GORKA AND PLAYBOY REPORTER GET INTO SHOUTING MATCH AT WHITE HOUSE: ‘YOU’RE A PUNK!’

[Brian] Karem said the attendees were a group of people “eager for demonic possession.”

Gorka heard Karem’s comment and responded, saying, “And you’re a journalist, right?”

Karem replied, “Come over here and talk to me brother, we can go outside and have a long conversation.”

“You’re threatening me in the Rose Garden?” Gorka replied. “You’re a punk. You’re not a journalist. You’re a punk.”

Karem also works for CNN, where, as with Playboy, threatening conservatives is a resume enhancer.

THERE ARE SOME AMERICAN HOMES THAT I WOULD NOT ADVISE YOU TO INVADE: Germany charges 3 in home invasion of US Army employee. “They say the 41-year-old American fought off three robbers and forced them back outside, but a fourth pushed past him, ran upstairs to where his wife and three children were and attacked his wife. Prosecutors say the man, a civilian employee of the U.S. Army’s Regional Health Command Europe, heard her screams, grabbed a kitchen knife and stabbed the burglar twice in self-defence while fighting with him. The wounded intruder fled and later died.”

I love a story with a happy ending.

AS A FORMER PRESIDENT SAID, PUNCH BACK TWICE AS HARD: Ex-UMBC baseball players, part of national trend, turning tables on sexual assault accuser in court.

SO ON FACEBOOK, JOHN RINGO IS RECOMMENDING THIS BOOK. Do you really need to know more? Okay: “If I had Comet Parker advanced enough in rank I’d probably use it as the basis for a Troy book. She’d make a fine stand-in for Ernest W. Evans. You really can’t top this true story for sheer bloody courage to the point of insanity. Three US destroyers and a destroyer escort taking on four Japanese battleships, six cruisers and seventeen destroyers to try and allow some jeep carriers to escape destruction.”

BURIED LEDE: SOCIALIST DISCOVERS AREA OF GOVERNMENT SHE’D ACTUALLY CUT: AOC Wants to Abolish the Department of Homeland Security.

UPDATE (FROM GLENN): I was against creating it. But if we abolished it, I’d keep immigration and border enforcement, which is what AOC wants to get rid of.

PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT: I watched a lifeguard quickly and efficiently scoop a drowning boy of our local public pool today. This pool has excellent, well-trained life guards. But not all pools do, and even excellent life guards can miss things. The kid was with a county camp group, and clearly shouldn’t have been in deep water. I know this pool gives the camp kids a swim test and then tells them where they are allowed to go, but no one is really watching them, given maybe 2 or 3 counselors and 18 or so kids. In short, if your kid doesn’t know how to swim, don’t let him go on a day camp trip to a public pool that has water over his head. And btw, this wasn’t the first camp kid I’ve seen fished out of the deep (i.e., 3.5 feet) water by a lifeguard over the years.

UPDATE (FROM GLENN): I post this every summer, but one more time: Drowning Doesn’t Look Like Drowning. “Drowning is almost always a deceptively quiet event. The waving, splashing and yelling that dramatic conditioning (television) prepares us to look for is rarely seen in real life.”
