CHANGE: Trump ‘coming back’: Up with independents, losing suburbs.

HOLD ON THERE, MOLLIE! YOU SAY TRUMP WILL WIN? Mollie Hemingway, who is clearly among the smartest journalists in Cable World these days, looks at the data from the key battleground states and finds — surprise! — that President Donald Trump is doing better there than he did in 2016. Maybe you better get ready, Joe, cauz that basement could get real old real fast, starting Nov. 4.

MICHAEL WALSH: Time for Trump to Cut the Gordian Knot.

Every American can see with his own eyes that the Democrats have already taken to the streets, beating, punching, pummeling and in some cases even killing their political opponents. Statues have been toppling for months, and buildings razed by fire. The corrupt media calls these “mostly peaceful” protests, and fan-dances them behind a First Amendment whose guarantees of freedom they otherwise ignore.

The assault on our police departments, along with the calls to defund them and thus, in effect, to decriminalize violent crime, is yet another baleful effect of this year’ extraordinary confluence of events, disease, and politics.

State national guards and militias could end this insurrection in a few days, but it’s to the advantage of the Democrats to prolong the destruction—and fear. They need to be put on warning by the president that further wanton destruction will no longer be tolerated—before, during, or after the election.

This triad of troubles—lawfare, lockdowns, and looting—are the tangled ropes of the Democrats’ last-ditch electoral strategy, which is to continue to create enough chaos in the hopes that a weary public will say it’s had enough—and vote for the hulk of Joe Biden and the stealth-presidential candidacy of Kamala Harris just to make it stop.

But with one well-crafted speech about the danger of the “collusion” hoax, the overreaction to the coronavirus, and the violence now haunting many American cities, the president can bring all the threads together—and then, like Alexander, sever them with one bold, clarifying stroke.

As As Glenn wrote last week, “don’t get cocky. You should be donating and working on this election, and putting out the max effort, because everything is up for grabs. And encourage your friends to turn out and vote too.”

LOOK WHAT RIOTS, QUARANTINE DID TO A GREAT AMERICAN CITY: Chris Bedford and John Daniel Davidson of The Federalist assess what’s left of Minneapolis, beginning at radical Left shrine at “Floyd Square,” where George Floyd died. Coming soon to your city, too?

CHANGE? Clarence Thomas thinks it’s time to rein in Section 230.

In a statement on Tuesday, the powerful conservative justice said he thinks the high court should weigh in soon on the sweeping interpretations of Section 230 emerging from lower courts. He argued the courts have interpreted the statute too broadly, allowing internet companies to shirk any responsibility for the content posted on their platforms.

“Extending §230 immunity beyond the natural reading of the text can have serious consequences,” Thomas wrote, in response to a Section 230 case before the court, Malwarebytes, Inc. v. Enigma Software. He agreed with his fellow justices that Malwarebytes is not the right case to take on. But he added, “in an appropriate case, it behooves us to do so.”

“Adopting the too-common practice of reading extra immunity into statutes where it does not belong, courts have relied on policy and purpose arguments to grant sweeping protection to Internet platforms,” Thomas wrote.

FIND ANOTHER PLAY TO RUN: “Senator Mazie Hirono (D-Hawaii), however, will be remembered for asking something no one else asked. During her time to question Judge Amy Coney Barrett, Hirono asked, ‘Since you became a legal adult, have you ever made unwanted requests for sexual favors or committed any verbal or physical harassment or assault of a sexual nature?’ No, I’m not kidding.”

Well, give them credit for running the same playbook no matter the gender.
