By Joe Concha TheHill August 28, 2017 Fox News contributor Lisa Boothe on Monday slammed Democratic lawmakers for not denouncing anti-fascist protest groups after violence broke out between pro- and anti-Trump demonstrators in Berkeley, Calif. “So many people came together to denounce what we saw in Charlottesville with those neo-Nazi groups, those white supremacists,” said Boothe on “America’s Newsroom.” Continue Reading…..
By Lizzie Johnson, Erin Allday, Michael Cabanatuan and Nanette Asimov San Francisco Chronicle August 28, 2017 An army of anarchists in black clothing and masks routed a small group of right-wing demonstrators who had gathered in a Berkeley park Sunday to rail against the city’s famed progressive politics, driving them out – sometimes violently — while overwhelming a huge contingent of police officers. Hundreds of officers tried to maintain calm in and around Martin Luther King Jr. Civic Center Park before the 1 p.m. “No Marxism in Berkeley” rally, putting up barricades, searching bags and confiscating sticks, masks, pepper…
Republicans are asking a horrific question: Is our president insane? By David Horsey latimes.com August 28, 2017 On his 92nd birthday, March 8, 1933, retired Supreme Court Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes was paid a surprise visit by the newly inaugurated president, Franklin Delano Roosevelt.

By Larry Klayman Newsmax August 28, 2017 Sheriff Joe Arpaio is a true American patriot who I am proud to call my friend. He was also my client when he singlehandedly, in a lawsuit which I filed on his behalf, was the first to challenge the executive order of former President Barack Obama effectively granting amnesty to over 5 million illegal immigrants. We ultimately won this legal challenge, and deep-sixed Obama’s illegal amnesty, the matter going all the way to the Supreme Court. The man has guts, and this is why he is called “America’s Sheriff.” But last fall,…

By Ned Ryun, opinion contributor TheHill August 28, 2017 Over the past few months, we have finally entered the fully realized historical revisionism promised in George Orwell’s “1984,” in which the motto, “Who controls the present controls the past. Who controls the past controls the future,” was central to shaping the book’s dystopian world. In the book, history was continually being rewritten and re-promulgated to meet the political necessities of the moment. There was no history to be remembered, let alone lessons to be learned. For all the talk of Trumpian bluster or exaggeration, there is only one group…
How Will the Supreme Court Respond to the Arpaio Pardon? By Garrett Epps The Atlantic August 27, 2017 In the wake of President Trump’s pardon of Arizona Sheriff Joe Arpaio, reporters are likely to hear words as harsh as “disturbed” and “concerned” floated by anonymous leaders of the president’s party on Capitol Hill. There will be few if any leaks from the Supreme Court. But one must wonder what messages the justices are getting from Trump’s extraordinary pardon. Though its major import is Trump’s official endorsement of racist discrimination in law enforcement, a flagrant contempt for judges and…
