ALAN KEYES — "Rod Rosenstein, the deputy attorney general who was confirmed by a 96 to 4 vote in the Senate on April 25, wrote the letter recommending that Comey should be fired: 'The Director was wrong to usurp the Attorney General's authority on July 5, 2016, and announce his conclusion that the case should be closed without prosecution. It is not the function of the Director to make such an announcement,' wrote Rosenstein."... (more)

DAVID KUPELIAN — It's not that unusual for an Islamic society. After all, the usual features are all on display -- the Muslim call to prayer, the teaching of Islam in the nation's schools to the exclusion of other religions, preferential treatment afforded Muslims by government and the courts, news coverage reflexively portraying Islam in a positive light, the rapid growth in mosque construction -- and also the disturbing cultural phenomena of female genital mutilation, "honor killings" and so on....

JONAH GOLDBERG — The last weekend of April delivered one of the more enjoyable spectacles of 2017. It wasn't Donald Trump's tent-revival rally in Pennsylvania. Nor was it the cotillion of self-congratulation known as the White House Correspondents' Dinner. It wasn't even the People's Climate March, which begged for some Monty Pythonesque splinter factions -- the March for People's Climate, Climate Marchers for People, whatever.... (more)

As it happens, the company he heads is among the most influential, powerful, and scary companies in the world -- the Federal Bureau of Investigation. But still, a company guy. Whether working for a president on the moderate-to-conservative spectrum like G.W. Bush or for a far-left Alinsky acolyte like Barack Obama makes absolutely no difference to this type of obedient -- and also subservient -- accommodator.... (more)
