When cameras at Brett Kavanaugh's Supreme Court hearing caught sight of a woman named Zina Bash, a Republican lawyer, with her arm resting in a position that allowed her index finger and thumb to almost touch — a purportedly racist gesture — a conspiracy theory broke out on social media, accusing Bash of signaling her support of white nationalism.
Someone recently dug up an old pro-Second Amendment Instagram post by Boston Red Sox star J.D. Martinez, in which the potential Triple Crown winner posted a picture of Adolf Hitler featuring the quote, "To conquer a nation, First disarm it's (sic) citizens."

Perhaps one day a court will find that Donald Trump conspired with his personal lawyer Michael Cohen to pay nondisclosure agreements meant to silence his mistresses.
It's implausible to imagine a future in which liberal activists don't demand that Republican groups be de-platformed.
The newest bugaboo of the gun control crowd is the bloodcurdling "3D printer gun" — or "downloadable death."
Today's socialists get their yucks by pretending collectivist policies only lead to innocuous outcomes like local libraries.
This week, The Washington Post published an op-ed headlined "It's not wrong to compare Trump's America to the Holocaust."

It looks as if the next phase of our ginned-up national moral panic will feature the public shunning and harassment of people we disagree with.

Democrats have shown zero interest in dealing with the undermining problems that propel illegal immigration.
These days, I'm often accused of being a globalist. The word is a pejorative meant to insinuate that I am more concerned about international corporations than I am about my fellow American citizens.

With consumer confidence at a 17-year high and economic prospects looking relatively strong, congressional Democrats have taken to grousing about the gas pump as a midterm strategy.
If the Justice Department and FBI are, as we've been told incessantly over the past year, not merely patriots but consummate professionals incapable of being distracted by partisanship or petty Washington intrigues, why are Donald Trump's antagonists freaking out over the fact that an inspector general will assess whether political motivation tainted an investigation into the president's campaign?
No matter how often Hamas tells us that rioters on the Israel-Gaza border are armed, the media keeps referring to them as "protesters" and "demonstrators."
It's strange that a president who had such a transformative effect on our national discourse will leave such a negligible policy legacy.
Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein doesn't work for CNN personalities or Vox explainer writers. He works for Trump.
Sanders guarantees every American "who wants or needs one" a lifetime government job.
