By Maxwell Tani The Daily Beast October 29, 2018 Matt Drudge on Monday morning seemingly broke rank among conservative media titans and openly bashed Fox News for its coverage of recent political violence in America. Drudge, the host of the news aggregator The Drudge Report, posted a series of tweets on Monday specifically criticizing a segment on Fox’s daytime gabfest Outnumbered that sought to discuss how the violent attacks—an anti-Semitic mass shooting at a Pittsburgh synagogue on Saturday; and mail bombs sent to prominent Trump critics last week—will impact midterm voters.

Drudge launches rare criticism of Fox News: ‘Check your soul in the makeup chair’ By Joe Concha TheHill October 29, 2018 Matt Drudge on Monday posted a rare commentary critical of Fox News on Monday, advising hosts of the network’s midday program “Outnumbered” to check their “soul in the makeup chair.” “A segment on Fox News this morning where hosts laughed and joked their way through a discussion on political impact of terror was bizarre,” Drudge said in a tweet regarding a segment exploring if unity could be achieved following a mass shooting at a Pittsburgh synagogue on…

By Larry Klayman Chairman and General Counsel, Freedom Watch October 29, 2018 Let me get one thing clear up front. I am a proud Jew and Zionist! Jesus, having come and spoken to me on three occasions when I was very down and out and going through a very difficult period in my life, I also became a proud Christian. That’s why I call myself a Jewish Christian. Indeed, a good friend of mine, the very talented gospel singer Marty Goetz, who also is a Jewish “Believer,” wrote the most influential refrain for me in one of his beautiful…

By Dom Cosentino Deadspin October 28, 2018 Four Jacksonville Jaguars players were detained, and three were arrested, after they ran up a tab of ����50,000 ($64,000 U.S.) at a London club that “features burlesque and circus performers” early Saturday morning, according to the UK’s Sun newspaper. All four were released after the tab was settled, per NFL Media’s Ian Rapoport, who described the incident as “a misunderstanding.” Rapoport identified the four players as safeties Barry Church, Ronnie Harrison, and D.J.

By Eli Rosenberg Washington Post October 27, 2018 The sending of package bombs to prominent Democrats and other high-profile figures this week was accompanied by a disturbing phenomenon. Baseless conspiracy theories, once confined to the fringes in the wake of violent acts, leaped with shocking speed into the mainstream discussion of the attacks. A surprisingly large number of figures from the conservative establishment — commentators, radio hosts, a Trump family member, and other pro-Trump figures — shared, liked, hinted at, raised questions about or otherwise endorsed an evidence-less theory that this was a “false-flag” attack — one that was…

By Larry Klayman Chairman and General Counsel, Freedom Watch October 26, 2018 No one condones violence. Indeed, I have always condemned it, which is why I conceived of and then founded both Judicial Watch and Freedom Watch, to peacefully and legally enforce the rule of law against a corrupt government and legal system. It’s why I have for over 25 years brought hard hitting cases and citizens grand juries to enable We the People to mete out justice the right way. But I have continually cautioned that the breakdown in our justice system, from the courts, to our Justice…
