Emily Maitlis offers "an unpopular opinion"
Gosh! Unpopular with who? With her BBC colleagues maybe? I have to say it's not unpopular with me. It fact it's the most sensible bit of reporting I've read on the BBC News website for a long while! Jim Acosta was called on by the president to ask a question. I'll say that again. He was called on by Donald Trump to ask whatever question he liked. And when he'd finished asking one, he then asked another - with interruption follow-ups in between. It was only when he attempted his third question - or possibly fourth depending on how you define the follow-ups - that the president got... more »
"Getting Run Down: Recharging Your Batteries"
*"Getting Run Down: Recharging Your Batteries"* by Madisyn Taylor, The DailyOM "Getting worn out and run down robs you of receiving what you need from the universe. Our natural state of being is vibrant, happy to be alive. Yet, there can be times when we feel run down and worn out. This does not mean that we are lazy or unfit for the tasks in our lives; it means that we need to recharge our batteries and find a way of keeping them charged. Vitamins and extra rest can be very helpful in restoring our physical bodies. And if we are willing to delve deeper, we may discover that there i... more »
“The Nature of Courage”
*“The Nature of Courage”* by ClassicLit “Tolkien had experienced war and violence first hand in World War I. Like many of the writers from his era, his world could never be the same, after seeing his best friends die, and his land in ruin. Shippey writes, “The life experiences of many men and women in the twentieth century have left them with an unshakable conviction of something wrong, something irreducibly evil in the nature of humanity, but without any very satisfactory explanation for it.” Defeat seems inevitable. The forces of evil are strong. And, the quest isn’t really a qu... more »

"The Fourth Turning And War Of The Worlds"
*"The Fourth Turning And War Of The Worlds"* by James Quinn “In retrospect, the spark might seem as ominous as a financial crash, as ordinary as a national election, or as trivial as a Tea Party. The catalyst will unfold according to a basic Crisis dynamic that underlies all of these scenarios: An initial spark will trigger a chain reaction of unyielding responses and further emergencies. The core elements of these scenarios (debt, civic decay, global disorder) will matter more than the details, which the catalyst will juxtapose and connect in some unknowable way.

Labour snubs MP Luciana Berger over assault threat per The Jewish Chronicle
'The Labour leadership has failed to make any contact with Jewish Labour MP Luciana Berger — despite the announcement last week of a criminal investigation into violent antisemitic threats made against her. The JC understands that neither Jeremy Corbyn nor any member of his senior team has offered support of any kind to Ms Berger after Cressida Dick, the Metropolitan Police Commissioner, confirmed last Friday the start of a criminal probe into the threats that appeared in a dossier of abuse from Labour members. In a series of potentially catastrophic events for Labour, it has emerge... more »

Moreover, unlike previous versions of the F-16—which were built in Fort Worth, Texas—these new “V... more »

*Kyle Mizokami* *Security, * Is that even possible? We take a look. *As North Korea has ably demonstrated, a motivated opponent will eventually improve their ability to defend themselves from the United States—and Iran has far more resources than North Korea does.

Iran is currently incapable of sinking a U.S. Navy carrier, but that is not an advantage the Pentagon can count on... more »

TRUMP DIDN'T VANISH IN A PUFF OF SMOKE ON TUESDAY AND IT'S ALL THE FAULT OF THE RESISTANCE, SAYS BRET STEPHENS
Bret Stephens has some thoughts about the midterms: For months we’ve heard from sundry media apocalypticians that this year’s midterms were the last exit off the road to autocracy. Yes, and yesterday's firing of Attorney General Jeff Sessions demonstrated that this was an accurate assessment. A Trumpist polemicist and hack is now America's acting attorney general. He'll begin the process of shutting down the Mueller investigation any day now. If the GOP had maintained control of the entire federal government, wouldn't that be a crisis?
