The Orlando Police Department tweeted Tuesday night that 41-year-old Markeith Loyd was in custody, ending a manhunt that began with the Jan. 9 fatal shooting of Lt. Debra Clayton outside a Wal-Mart store.
Local television stations showed Loyd had a bloodied face when a half-dozen officers and deputies took him into police headquarters.
Orlando Police Chief John Mina tweeted, “Captured and wearing Lt. Debra Clayton’s handcuffs.” (more…)

Political counter culture icon Andrew Breitbart mastered the use of a simple term:

“SO”?

Whenever challenged about the downside of his approach – AB had an inherent knack for removing toxic attacks by owning ‘the downside’, yet never accepting the framing.  Then he’d artfully expose the framing’s banality through simple counter questions, ‘truisms’.
Rabid leftists would never quite know how to respond to the linguistic judo and consistently over react in behavior and declaration.  This exposed their ideological moonbattery.  Sometimes he’d even join them in leading a chant framed to display the inevitable conclusion of their current protest:

What do we want?… Free Stuff…. When do we want it?…. NOW.

It was intensely funny to watch in action.

Presidential Trump’s approach today is magnitudes beyond winning; he’s consistently channeling an almost identical approach.  Example: “Well, someone’s doing the raping Don”, in response to Don Lemon’s challenges about Trump’s campaign announcement and border wall proposal.
Additionally, Trump is creating a new dimension in political counter culture that baits opponents into diminishing themselves – and they fall for it each and every time.  Exponentially stunning.  Gobsmackingly so.

Well, at least the DoD won’t have the issue of paying for Manning’s gender reassignment surgery any longer.  Additionally, the Intel Community writ large gets a big poke in the eye from the Obama administration that has used them as political tools to poke the White House enemies in the eye…  Oh, and presumably pretzel Democrats will like WikiLeaks again…. until next week, or something.

[…] Manning copied hundreds of thousands of military incident logs from the Afghanistan and Iraq wars, which, among other things, exposed abuses of detainees by Iraqi military officers working with American forces and showed that civilian deaths in the Iraq war were likely much higher than official estimates.

The files Manning copied also included about 250,000 diplomatic cables from American embassies around the world showing sensitive deals and conversations, dossiers detailing intelligence assessments of Guantánamo detainees held without trial, and a video of an American helicopter attack in Baghdad in two Reuters journalists were killed, among others.

…until you reach a point where periscope depth is warranted as part of the plan.
Many people could naturally see an evolving ideological synergy between Donald Trump and Rand Paul back in 2015.   Despite some divergences on international approach, Paul and Trump have a very similar domestic  pragmatic Mercerism.  T-Rex sealed the deal.
Today Senator Rand Paul surfaces on CNN to discuss current political events as they unfold against the background of an incoming Trump administration.  Paul gives Wolf Blitzer a sad face.

It’s been six months of no action since the Brexit referendum vote to leave the EU.  Recent reports claim Brussels is likely to insist on freedom of movement for EU citizens in and out of the U.K. in return for full access to the EU single trade market.  This is a major test for the fortitude of May, who Brexit supporters feel must outline a hard exit with no middle-ground for free movement access.

Mason Weaver, a former Black Panther, takes issue with legendary civil rights activist Rep. John Lewis calling Trump an illegitimate president.  In an interview with Tucker Carlson on Fox News, Weaver skewers the hypocrisy of Lewis, and calls out Democrats as the party of the Klan.
Mr. Weaver has a dream, and it doesn’t look anything like the nightmare created by John Lewis and company.
