Finally, some thoughts about Megyn Kelly, free speech, and...Halloween?

    Or maybe the bomber heard all the "dog whistles" coming from the Trump administration, which regular people don't hear. (But don't say it's because they don't really exist!)

    The other thing "we" might be grateful for, sadly, is that the softball shooting came first. If it were the other way around, I'm sure there would be lots of media and others on the left, calling THAT a "false flag operation" set up to distract from the "pro-Trump bomber."

    The examples given by Heather Mac Donald of the Google and Youtube people who wrote or acted about how women in general prefer different career paths to men in general, seem like classic cases of "Speaking Truth To Power." And the Left punished them for it. Oh, how the mighty Left has fallen.

    For those that are interested, John Nolte had a very long and interesting column on Breitbart about Megan Kelly. I'd say there is definitely a "fatwa" on Fox employees. He covered other stuff that was related.

    I know a lot of people hate Nolte, but I'm starting to think he's brilliant.
