Brexit happened

So?

Britain will regain its political freedom, its autonomous self-government, and its independence from an EU that is spinning out of control under the power of establishment elites, unelected and unaccountable socialist bureaucrats, and a judicial court that is increasingly making legal decisions that replace Britain’s powerful common law.

When you put it that way (and Lawrence Kudlow does), it’s sort of another Magna Carta, or at least in the spirit of same.

Works for me, especially the “establishment elites” part, in whom lies the spirit of something else entirely — experts deciding what’s best for the hoi polloi. Saying in effect, like it or lump it.

Wise words in the aftermath:

If the EU wants to prevent other countries from catching the Brexit bug, our advice is to avoid the temptation to punish the U.K. with an arduous renegotiation of terms for its re-entry into the common market.

The perception of EU high-handedness is what alienates public opinion across the Continent.

Brexit ought to be the wake-up call the EU needs to return to serving as a common market that encourages growth and competition, and not—as it has become since the late 1980s—an innovation-killing superstate obsessed with regulatory harmonization, tax hikes, green-energy dogma and anticompetitive antitrust enforcement.

Yessir!

AG Lynch soft spot in heart for Muslims, so?

She downplays the Islamic in Islamic terrorism, or so it seems.

Top Justice Department officials, including Attorney General Loretta Lynch, have worked with an organization dedicated to interfering with law enforcement efforts to monitor activities at the most radical mosques.

Lynch and DOJ Civil Rights Division head Vanita Gupta have appeared at gala events for an organization called Muslim Advocates. The George Soros-funded charity has badgered the New York City Police Department away from monitoring the most radical mosques in the city.


Well this makes her Obama’s kind of attorney general, I must say. And of course, Soros’ too. What gives with him, anyhow? Did he attend a Muslim school too?

OCCUPY CONGRESS: John Lewis shuts things down

He risked his life for this?

Rep. John Lewis (D-GA) has come full circle in his astounding, American life.

He came to prominence during the struggles of the 1960s as an original member of the “Big Six” civil rights leaders who risked their lives for the rights of black Americans to vote and exercise other basic rights guaranteed by the US Constitution.

And last night, he led a sit-in on the floor of the US House of Representatives for the sole purpose of curtailing those same constitutionally-protected rights
