How Democrats and the media manufactured the Russia/collusion story out of absolutely nothing

If you don’t already read him, I want to highly recommend the Wall Street Journal’s Holman W. Jenkins. One of his tremendous strengths as a writer is that he sees past the prevailing lines of thought that seem to inform popular narratives. If everyone assumes A because it’s very common to believe A, Jenkins will dig deep down into whether there’s any truth whatsoever to A.

And he’ll often find there’s none. Not only that, but Jenkins will also get into why so many people see to think A is the beginning and the end of the story, and he’ll explain to you what the real story is, and why.

So his piece this morning on the Russia/collusion thing is a must-read. Many of us have noted in recent days that this is an investigation about nothing. All of Washington has been looking into it for months, and no one has found any evidence that the Trump campaign colluded with the Russians. It’s about as empty a story as you’re ever going to find, and yet the story goes on, and on, and on . . .

So where did it come from, and why do so many people seem convinced there must be something to it when all evidence says there isn’t?

Well there’s where...

Belligerent professor suspended indefinitely after heated round with Tucker Carlson

A former professor at Essex County College was indefinitely suspended two days after her heated appearance on “Tucker Carlson Tonight.” 

Lisa Durden was told that she had to cancel her classes and report to Essex County College’s human resources department two days after a June 6 appearance on the prime time Fox News show. School officials then indefinitely suspended her. “They did this to humiliate me,” Durden told The Star-Ledger. “Essex County College publicly lynched me in front of my students.” 

Durden went off on the show in defense of a black-only Memorial Day party organized by Black Lives Matter, dodging a direct question from Carlson on whether it’s okay to exclude people based on race. 

“I thought the whole point of Black Lives Matter, or one of the points, would be to speak out against singling people out on the basis of their race and punishing them for...

Russian, NATO Jets In Near Standoff After F-16 Buzzes Russian Defense Minister's Airplane

A day after a Russian fighter allegedly flew within 5 feet of a US reconnaissance plane traveling over the Baltic Sea, Reuters reports that a NATO F-16 fighter jet returned the favor when it tried to improperly approach a plane carrying the Russian defense minister. The plane was traveling to the city of Kaliningrad, a Russian enclave along the Baltic coast, where Defense Minister Sergey Shoigu was scheduled to discuss security issues with defense officials on Wednesday. The NATO aircraft was warded off by a Russian Su-27 jet, according to RT.

In an accounting of the incident, Reuters notes that one of the Russian fighter jets escorting Shoigu's plane had inserted itself between the defense minister's plane and the NATO fighter and "tilted its wings from side to side to show the weapons it was carrying, Russian agencies said." After that the F-16 promptly left the area.

Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said that he has no information about the incident.

“It’s probably better to ask the Defense Ministry,” Peskov said in answer to journalists’ questions.

The latest provocative maneuver represents yet another escalation of tensions between the US and Russia. On Monday, Russia suspended cooperation with...
