Did FBI Bosses Use Their Own Leaks to Entrap Carter Page?
Daniel Greenfield
An intriguing tidbit from another great piece by John Solomon at The Hill.

Doxxing and Anti-Semitism Unprofitable as Univision Tries to Dump Gawker and Onion
Daniel Greenfield
Splinter has become more hysterical than ever. In a desperate bid for attention there has been doxxing and threats of violence. But the kinja is still going over the falls.

Never Trumpers Are Jumping the Shark
Daniel Greenfield
Max Boot has a Washington Post column titled, “Someone Please Pay Attention to Me”. Actually it’s titled, “I left the Republican Party. Now I want Democrats to take over.” Lest there be any doubt.
