  • Still maddeningly elusive, but the most damning new rumors about the Clinton Crime Family come closer to confirmation, as powerful forces try to keep them down. WikiLeaks and Anonymous, where are you?
  • Washington state may be reliably blue according to the pundits. But we just got an interesting reminder that it’s Bernie blue, not Hillary blue. One of the state’s 12 electors announced he ain’t v*ting for Hillary. No way, nohow, not ever.
  • With Gab.ai now replacing an SJW-censored Twitter, a rival rises to push aside Google-owned, SJW-censored YouTube.
  • Revisiting why incompetents think they’re awesome.
  • From the incomparable Onion, which still manages to commit satire in an increasingly self-satirizing age: Pollster Nate Silver gunned down while trying to sneak into Mexico with presidential polling data.
  • Um … I haven’t personally tried these at home, but Cracked shows five ways people are defeating drones.
  • Have a silly pug.

    I started a thread about the Clinton rumors on rochesterconservative.com. As with you, Claire, the jury is still out on this for me and I’m waiting to see if anything actually happens.

    Robert Satiacum isn’t the first elector to go his own way, Roger MacBride of Virginia in 1972 voted for Hospers and Nathan, Toni who I got to know when she lived in Oregon was a very strong minded libertarian when I knew her;

    A little more on faithless electors;

    I think in Washington state the crime for being a Faithless elector is a max (no jail time) 10k fine which I bet there will be plenty of people willing to pay if it denies Clinton the nomination.
