CJR calls Trump a racist

“A year ago, big media organizations like the New York Times faced facts and called Trump a liar on the front page. It’s time to use the word racist, too,” Columbia Journalism Review editor and publisher Kyle Pope wrote.

I never knew you, Kyle, but I knew your wife. I hope she’s properly embarrassed.

NFL Arrest-o-Meter

Good time to look into the charming criminal and misdemeanor behavior of these millionaire cry-babies. Most are for DUI and wife-beating, i,e, domestic violence.

“NFL Arrest provides an interactive visualized database of National Football League player Arrests & Charges. Learn about your rival team’s history with the law, break down arrests by Player, Position, Crime and Team.”

Via (who else?) Instapundit.

UPDATE: “Los Angeles Ram Ethan Westbrooks was arrested this weekend for speeding and being in possession of an unlicensed firearm. This is the second time in bracelets this year for Westbrooks, who was arrested in March on suspicion of domestic violence (the charges were later dropped).”

Trump takes on the NFL kneelers

Drudge Report has a funny collection of headlines about it:

“President sticks it to sports world…Encourages supporters to leave stadiums…Tells owners to fire players…’Get Son of Bitch Off Field’…Goodell hits back…Players unleash…Union slams…BILLS ’emotional’…Kaepernick mom piles on…LeBron bashes ‘bum’…NAACP rallies behind NBA star…WARRIORS won’t visit White House…TAR HEELS out too…Dem calls for ALL players to kneel.”

What a hoot! They deserve it. Boy, do they deserve it. Turn it off#DumpNFL

UPDATE:  Farewell to the National Football League

MORE:  Sunday, the Pittsburgh Steelers stayed in the locker room during the anthem. All but one: Alejandro Villanueva, an offensive lineman who served three tours in Afghanistan:

Bannon the street fighter

“I don’t need the affirmation of the mainstream media. I don’t care what they say. They can call me an anti-Semite. They can call me racist. They call me nativist. You can call me anything you want. Okay? As long as we’re driving this agenda for the working men and women of this country, I’m happy.”

There’s more good quotes, here.

If Charlottesville were reversed…

Another in our continuing series of quoting good commenters, this time at the Power Line Blog:

“If you reverse the political parties and the ideologies of all the players involved in the Charlottesville incident,” comments Steve Katz, “the mayor, the governor, the protesters, the counter protesters, the assailant, the victim, and the POTUS. the media would put 100 percent of the blame on the “Right Wing mayor” and the “Right Wing governor,” for ordering the cops not to intervene, and purposely allowing a riot to ensue.

“And the only comment they would seek from the Democrat POTUS, was an affirmation that the Right Wing mayor and the Right Wing governor were to blame for the whole thing.

“It’s unfortunate that so many seemingly intelligent people can’t figure out how this game is played. Did they learn absolutely nothing from comparing the media coverage of the shooting of Gabby Giffords to the media coverage of the shooting of Steve Scalise? Apparently not.”

Editing the Wall Street Journal

Editor-in-chief Gerard Baker excised several conclusions from the WSJ’s coverage of the president’s Phoenix rally. Admonishing reporters:

“Could we please just stick to reporting what he said rather than packaging it in exegesis and selective criticism?”

That’s what was leaked to the NYSlimes, anyhow, as the WSJ reporting staff fought back against removal of their editorializing. Concluded the Slimes:

“The Wall Street Journal is owned by the media magnate Rupert Murdoch, who speaks regularly with Mr. Trump and recently dined with the president at the White House.”

Oh, horrors. Well, I guess we know what Gerard’s work is worth, eh?

Alt-left attacks the Phoenix police

Bottles of urine again. From Antifa. They of, as the president said, at last: helmets, black masks and clubs.

This time they were met with pepper spray and tear gas. Way to go, cops.

UPDATE:  And rubber bullets and concussion grenades.
