CLIFF KINCAID — As my colleague Roger Aronoff reports, the media are livid that President Donald Trump is dismantling former President Barack Obama's "climate change" legacy of deindustrialization and federal government control of energy resources. Meanwhile, factions of the U.S. Catholic Church and some Protestants are brainwashing church members into accepting the non-Christian idea that religious faith involves a belief in an Earth Spirit....

VICTOR DAVIS HANSON — Shortly after the 2008 election, President Obama's soon-to-be chief of staff, Rahm Emanuel, infamously declared, "You never let a serious crisis go to waste." He elaborated: "What I mean by that [is] it's an opportunity to do things you think you could not do before."... (more)

WASHINGTON TIMES — It would be hard for biased, negative news coverage of President Trump to get any worse. "As President Trump approaches the end of his first 100 days in office, he has received by far the most hostile press treatment of any incoming American president, with the broadcast networks punishing him with coverage that has been 89 percent negative," wrote Rich Noyes and Mike Ciandella, both analysts for Newsbusters.org, a conservative press watchdog....

WASHINGTON EXAMINER — Arguments in a high-profile religious liberty case caused tempers to flare on both sides of the Supreme Court's ideological divide Wednesday. The high court waited for several months to hear Trinity Lutheran Church of Columbia v. Comer, and did so with a full nine-justice court bolstered by the addition of Justice Neil Gorsuch, who joined the court this month.... (more)

WASHINGTON EXAMINER — The Hillary Clinton campaign was worse than you -- or I -- thought. That's the message of Jonathan Allen and Amie Parnes' Shattered: Inside Hillary Clinton's Doomed Campaign.

GEORGE WILL — Three months ago, State Trooper Jonathan Otto, 33, of the Arizona Department of Public Safety pulled over a car that had caught his attention by traveling 104 miles per hour long after midnight, just south of Kingman. He smelled marijuana in the car. It was driven by a man with an adult female wearing only lingerie. Their passenger was a female juvenile whose fake document showed her to be 18. She was, Otto says, "not wearing a whole lot of clothing."... (more)

NEWSMAX — An upstart Democrat in a special election in a conservative Georgia congressional district failed to stave off a runoff election early Wednesday morning. With 95 percent of the vote counted, Jon Ossoff, a 30-year-old former congressional staffer, had 48.6 percent of the vote, according to CNN. That fell below the 50 percent plus one he would have needed to prevent a runoff.... (more)

ERICK ERICKSON — Speaking in Texas tonight, Senator Ted Cruz came out swinging for the House Freedom Caucus, noting that the critics of the conservatives who are in the White House are "profoundly damaging our prospects of success."

DAVID FRENCH — The first and only time I've been jolted awake by air-raid sirens came in Seoul, South Korea, in 2010. I had of course heard tornado-warning sirens before; I grew up in the South, after all. But I'd never heard anything like this. I was sleeping in a tent in the middle of the Yongsan Garrison, taking a break from my night shift during a military exercise called Operation Key Resolve, which was designed to simulate the resumption of hostilities on the Korean peninsula....

BRUCE DEITRICK PRICE — The Reading Wars were always chaotic and confusing. Here's the gist: On the one side, you had earnest, sincere people warning the country about the dangers of non-phonetic approaches (these were usually called Look-Say, Whole Word, sight-words, and other jargon). The warning was always the same. Nobody can learn to read that way. It's a hoax! Don't do it! You're being punked.... (more)

ALAN KEYES — During the past week or so, President Trump repeatedly set himself at odds with candidate Trump, frankly acknowledging that his campaign rhetoric was out of touch with reality. In every instance, the reversal brought him more into line with the Democrat/RINO left-leaning political culture he made a "huge" show of adamantly opposing during his run for the presidency....

A special report from the Accuracy in Media Center for Investigative Journalism

CLIFF KINCAID — The British Guardian posted a report on April 13 claiming that its sources now admit that the British spy agency GCHQ was digitally wiretapping Trump associates, going back to late 2015. This was presumably when the December 2015 Moscow meeting between Russian President Vladimir Putin and Lt. General Michael Flynn took place.... (more)

CHERYL CHUMLEY — Atheists and progressives will tell you America is a secular nation, built on secular principles, and that it's the job of the rising generations to make sure politics and religion never do meet. They're wrong. They say that because they don't want to submit to a higher authority. But just because the Founding Fathers didn't want the government to establish a church -- didn't want the country to become guided by the same type of zealotry that steers nations of Islam, for instance -- doesn't mean they wanted God separated from governance....
