WASHINGTON EXAMINER — Marilou Danley, the girlfriend of the Las Vegas shooter, informed authorities she occasionally helped Stephen Paddock load ammunition into magazines and, as a result, her fingerprints were probably on some bullets, according to unsealed court documents.... (more)

BOB UNRUH — If President Trump wants to be known as a president seeking the restoration of the U.S. Constitution, one of his goals should be to turn federal lands -- the millions of acres run by the Bureau of Land Management, Forest Service and National Park Service -- over to the states....

WASHINGTON TIMES — It's hard to imagine how the 2014 federal effort to impound Cliven Bundy's cattle could have gone any worse, but environmentalists are demanding that the Bureau of Land Management go back and try it again. Days after a federal judge threw out the case against Mr. Bundy and two of his sons, environmental groups urged Interior Secretary Ryan Zinke to remove the family's cattle from the property near Bunkerville, Nevada....

WASHINGTON TIMES — An emergency alert warning Hawaii of a ballistic missile threat Saturday was issued by mistake, authorities said afterwards. "EMERGENCY ALERT," read an alarm sent to cellphones across Hawaii shortly after 8 a.m. Saturday morning. "BALLISTIC MISSILE THREAT INBOUND TO HAWAII. SEEK IMMEDIATE SHELTER. THIS IS NOT A DRILL."...

WASHINGTON TIMES — Women's March organizers are moving away from the iconic "pussyhat" because it may be offensive to trans women who don't have female genitalia. "I personally won't wear one because if it hurts even a few people's feelings, then I don't feel like it's unifying," Phoebe Hopps, founder and president of Women's March Michigan, told the Detroit Free Press....

WASHINGTON TIMES — Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says anyone who disagrees that there is a right to abortion is "not in line" with "where we are as a society."

WES VERNON — It says here, in an article by Washington Free Beacon's Bill Gertz, that China has secretly been supplying missiles to North Korea, and has been bolstering its war-making ability provided that North Korea "halts further nuclear tests." So this means "Rocket Man," who rules North Korea by starving his own people, gets to play with his toys as long as he doesn't use them?... (more)

WASHINGTON TIMES — One year ago, BuzzFeed took the momentous step of posting an unsubstantiated, 35-page scandal sheet against then-President-elect Trump -- and Washington hasn't been the same since. The news website's post, which oddly came with a disclaimer, immediately took on the name "dossier." Sometimes it was the "Trump dossier" or the "Russia-Trump dossier" or the "Steele dossier," after its author, former British spy Christopher Steele.... (more)

CONRAD BLACK — Having encountered Michael Wolff and having had an acidulous public exchange with him, I attest that he is an utterly odious man. He can't write properly, has no professional integrity, and is a sociophobic mud-slinger and myth-maker.... (more)

VICTOR DAVIS HANSON — George H. W. Bush gave up power quietly and turned to charity work and occasional ceremonial speaking after his reelection defeat in 1992. George W. Bush -- like Jerry Ford in 1977 and Ronald Reagan in 1989 -- did the same when Barack Obama assumed power in 2009. R... (more)

VALERIE RICHARDSON — Rancher Cliven Bundy no longer faces federal charges in the 2014 Nevada standoff, but that doesn't mean his legal fight with the Justice Department is over. Attorney Larry Klayman said Mr. Bundy is considering filing lawsuits for malicious prosecution and civil-rights violations stemming from the court battle that ended Monday with a federal judge dismissing all charges against him over "flagrant prosecutorial misconduct."...

NATIONAL REVIEW — On January 20, 2017, the executive power peacefully transitioned from President Obama to President Trump. At least one judge in San Francisco didn't get the memo. Yesterday, Judge William Alsup ordered the Trump administration to keep its predecessor's Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program in place. This remarkable 49-page order has all the aesthetics of a judicial decision but is, at heart, an amateur act of punditry. Judge Alsup paints the picture of a divided White House, wherein "the Chief Executive publicly favors the very program [his Administration] has ended."... (more)

WASHINGTON TIMES — President Trump had the power to name his own acting head of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, a judge ruled Wednesday, delivering a legal victory to the administration in its battle to control one of the government's most powerful independent agencies.... (more)

NEWSMAX — Former lawman and now-Senate candidate Joe Arpaio declared Wednesday he is "not gonna back down" on the discredited claim President Barack Obama's birth certificate is a fake. In an interview with WABC radio hosts Rita Cosby and Curtis Sliwa, the ex-Arizona sheriff said he considers the issue a mission whether or not he wins the Senate seat held by retiring Sen. Jeff Flake, R-Ariz.... (more)

NATIONAL REVIEW — President Trump will make some important decisions this month that could not only end the controversial 2015 nuclear agreement with Iran but also convey America's support for Iranian protesters and hasten the overthrow of Iran's ruling mullahs.... (more)

ANDREW C. MCCARTHY — When you look at it hard, two conclusions are impossible to escape: First, at the height of the 2016 campaign, Obama intelligence officials anxiously adopted Christopher Steele's allegations of traitorous conduct by then-candidate Donald Trump rather than first subject his "dossier" to rigorous investigation -- even though Steele himself admits that his "raw," "unverified" reports might not be true....

WASHINGTON TIMES — Senators confirmed President Trump's 20th federal judge Tuesday, approving William L. Campbell Jr. to a seat on a federal court in Tennessee by a 97-0 vote. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, Kentucky Republican, said the Senate will have three more district court nominees on its agenda this week as well, but he complained it will consume the chamber's entire floor time as they overcome Democrats' procedural hurdles....

ALAN KEYES — In a Politico article published last month, Jason Schwartz asserts: "Authoritarian rulers across the globe are adopting President Donald Trump's favorite phrase to limit free speech, with prominent leaders or state media in at least 15 countries using his "fake news" line to denounce their critics, according to a Politico review."...

JOAN SWIRSKY — When my husband Steve was almost 13, his grandfather died. Just a few months before, the old man he loved and respected had tutored him for his Bar Mitzvah. To this day, Steve remembers the burial ceremony vividly. When the rabbi had finished the prayers at the outdoor burial site and his grandfather's son and daughters and grandchildren were wiping the tears from their eyes, Steve told me that "my grandmother let out a blood-curdling scream and jumped into the grave -- literally -- right on top of the wooden coffin! And I remember three or four men had to reach in and jump in after her to lift her out."... (more)

USA TODAY — LAS VEGAS -- Nevada rancher Cliven Bundy, his two sons and a militia member will not face a retrial on charges that they led an armed rebellion against federal agents in 2014. A federal judge Monday said the federal prosecutors' conduct was "outrageous" and "violated due process rights" of the defendants.... (more)
