MY LATEST SUBSTACK ESSAY IS ON THE CHARLOTTE STABBING: From Rabble-Rousing to Rabble-Snoozing: Journalists do whatever the narrative requires at the moment, but does it still work?

AND NOW, A FEW WORDS FROM JOE BIDEN:
1989. Senator Biden calls on George Bush to do more to fight crime and drug trafficking.
Beef up border security. Build more prisons. Set up an international strike force to take out narco terrorists.

As with Democrats’ previous tough talk on immigration, Trump should run this clip and add, “I’m Donald Trump, and I approve this message.”

CHRISTIAN TOTO: Graham Linehan: My Arrest ‘Blew Up in Their Faces.’
The corrupt, biased press went silent after Tara Reade accused Joe Biden of sexually assaulting her in 1993.
Nothing to see here. Move along. It lasted for weeks.
The only mainstream journalist to seek Reade out for an interview at the time? Megyn Kelly.
The former Fox News superstar wasn’t the media force she is today, though. Kelly had been unfairly jettisoned by NBC after some innocent comments about blackface were weaponized against her.
Kelly still saw the obvious news value in speaking with Reade, and she used her then-modest platform to conduct the interview.
Today, Kelly is one of the media’s biggest stars. She recently launched several new programs as part of her podcast empire, MK Media, featuring hosts like Link Lauren, Maureen Callahan, Emily Jashinsky and Mark Halperin.
And, once again, Kelly interviewed a subject with an amazing story to tell, who you won’t find anywhere else. This story also doesn’t align with the Legacy Media’s narrative.
She did it anyway.
Here’s the interview:
IT SEEMS UNLIKELY THEY’LL GET IT: WA teachers plead for more support in dealing with out-of-control students. “Two teachers from the Eastmont School District in East Wenatchee charged with dealing with students with serious behavior challenges told The Center Square that without support from administrators in their building, OSPI rule changes are irrelevant.”

HMM: Trump loses bid to overturn $83.3 million judgment in E. Jean Carroll defamation case. “The panel who delivered Monday’s ruling comprised two judges appointed by former President Joe Biden and one judge picked by former President Barack Obama.”
That detail doesn’t come up until the final graf of CNBC’s report.
The man whose lies helped propel BLM, causing death, riots, and destruction, has died in a fatal shooting in Ferguson, Missouri. In 2014, Dorian Johnson witnessed his friend Michael Brown rush a police officer in Ferguson. The officer fatally shot Brown in self-defense. But before the truth finally came out, lies were spread about the killing by Johnson, which created a national media-fueled outrage that was driven on by the later-debunked ‘Hands up, Don’t Shoot’ chant and narrative. Johnson died on Sunday, less than a mile from where Brown was killed. No police were involved… Posters are not missing the irony that a person who sparked an anti-police crusade died by the very violence that more policing could have helped prevent.

EVERGREEN: French government collapses.
The French government has collapsed after prime minister François Bayrou lost a confidence vote in the National Assembly.
MPs overwhelmingly backed the motion to remove Mr Bayrou, voting 364-194 – a 170 majority.
Mr Bayrou is expected to resign on Tuesday, leaving Emmanuel Macron to search for a replacement or call snap elections.
The French prime minister called the vote of confidence in an attempt to force MPs to adopt his austerity budget.
During an impassioned speech to MPs, he warned: “You can get rid of the government, but you can’t get rid of reality.”
Though the French have certainly been giving the latter a try since 1789.
TWENTY MINUTES INTO THE FUTURE:
That’s certainly Axios’ take, as part of today’s “Republicans pounce”-style article:
In Canada, the future may be now: City of Hamilton orders resident to take down 10 security cameras from his home.

THE PROBLEM WITH BRITAIN IS ALL THOSE BRITONS, BRITISH ELITES EXPLAINED: University report: British countryside too ‘white,’ ‘needs more halal food.’
UNITARY EXECUTIVE NEWS: “The Supreme Court on Monday allowed President Donald Trump to fire a member of the Federal Trade Commission despite a federal law.”
The fact that NBC News referred to the fired commissioners as “Democratic commissioners” gives away the game. According to Humphrey’s Executor, the idea was that “The commission is to be nonpartisan; and it must, from the very nature of its duties, act with entire impartiality.” And “It is charged with the enforcement of no policy except the policy of the law.”
Who even remembers to pretend that was supposed to be the idea these days?!
Not the press, who regard Democratic monopolies as inherently “nonpartisan.”
IT’S COME TO THIS:
I guess “people shouldn’t be murdered on public transit” is now a MAGA position. https://t.co/BNodegr6FQ
