CHARLES LIPSON: A Put-Up Job. “Growing evidence that officials involved in the Russia collusion investigation knowingly acted without cause is undermining our governing institutions.”

WASHINGTON POST SETTLES NICHOLAS SANDMANN DEFAMATION LAWSUIT IN COVINGTON CATHOLIC HIGH SCHOOL CONTROVERSY: “On 2/19/19, I filed $250M defamation lawsuit against Washington Post. Today, I turned 18 & WaPo settled my lawsuit,” Sandmann announced on Twitter. “Sandmann offered a not-so-subtle warning to Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey. ‘We have settled with WAPO and CNN. The fight isn’t over. 2 down. 6 to go. Don’t hold your breath @jack,” Sandmann tweeted.’”

CYBERSECURITY: Chinese-made drone app in Google Play spooks security researchers. “The Android version of DJI Go 4—an app that lets users control drones—has until recently been covertly collecting sensitive user data and can download and execute code of the developers’ choice, researchers said in two reports that question the security and trustworthiness of a program with more than 1 million Google Play downloads.”

Anti-white, too.

KRUISER’S MORNING BRIEF: Defund the Public Education Leftist Indoctrination Mills. “While I have never been one to view anything as an existential crisis, I’ve more and more come to believe that the upcoming presidential election will be a watershed moment for the United States. If Joe Biden wins, it will be the complete triumph of decades of public education indoctrination. The drift of so many young Americans towards socialism and anti-American sentiment is the direct result not being taught real American history, but being fed a leftist line that seeks to rewrite and/or whitewash much of what made this country great.”
