CLINTON TROLLS ATTACK DILBERT, IN MOVES THAT ARE BECOMING STUNNINGLY FAMILIAR: The Week I Became a Target.

HOW MANY DIVISIONS CAN COMPROMISE FIELD? Navy Chief Pushes for‘Compromise’ to Stop ‘Problematic’ Actions in South China Sea. I bet Compromise will make our enemies quake in their boots.

CAPITALISM, YOU IS DOING IT WRONG: How corporations can be a force for good.

Corporations should be encouraged and rewarded for stepping up to solve society’s problems. That will require a change in mind-set. Today, corporate leaders are graded on stock price, not on the amount of good their companies do. We must broaden our evaluation of corporations beyond share prices to provide space, light and water for their role to grow.

How… ridiculous.  Also insane.  (Yeah, I could say other words, but not PG ones.) Commerce and social policy are totally different things, and when you mix them neither turns out particularly well.  But statists got to control.

HILLARY COULDN’T BE PROVEN GUILTY, WITHOUT PROVING THE PRESIDENT GUILTY ALSO: I have a vague memory of something called “High Crimes and Misdemeanors”  I SWEAR I remember it existing. Must be in a different universe.  One where laws still mean something. VIDEO: Why the FBI Let Hillary Clinton Go Free.

BACK WHEN WE HAD FRIENDS:

At 10:45 a.m. on 9/11 — minutes after the North Tower of the World Trade Center had collapsed — New York’s cellphone service was almost nonexistent. Yet, as I walked up Third Avenue, my phone rang. Peres was on the line.

“You OK?” he asked. “You know where Don Rumsfeld is? Talk to me.”

“Shimon,” I answered, “I’m the consul general in New York. Rumsfeld runs the Pentagon. How the hell do I know where he is?”

Fine, Peres said. “These sh-ts hit New York! New York! Do you get that? I’m coming over.”
