Warning! Warning! Warning! Okay, two warnings really. The first warning is that Hillary is out to get your guns. The second warning is that I’m going to use this post to shill my collection of essays, Our Second Amendment Rights In Ten Essays. I consider the second item something of

I’m doing actual legal work today, but I want to clear my spindle before it gets completely out of control. Here goes, a quick, down-and-dirty round-up: President Trump? Scott Adams has pretty much nailed everything that’s happened so far in this election, at least when it comes to Trump’s tactics

Benito Mussolini was the first leader to lead under the “fascism” banner. Having placed himself there, he offered the core definition of fascism: “All within the state, nothing outside the state, nothing against the state.” You’ll notice that Mussolini did not claim that the state owns everything within its borders.

I’ll be away all day tomorrow, first doing an activity with the kids, and then listening to this year’s best a cappella groups (although this wonderful group from Israel won’t be there). I therefore hope that this post gives you lots of interesting stuff to read on Saturday. Pro-Trump? Anti-Trump?
