“This is child abuse. Let’s call it for what it is, and the people behind this — I want to make it clear — the average gay person is probably no more interested in this than the average straight person.

Trump cultist Dennis Prager writes: The sadistic treatment of Paul Manafort illustrates something I have believed since I attended graduate school in the 1970s and saw the behavior of left-wing students: Leftism makes people meaner. Neither liberalism nor conservatism makes people kinder or meaner. But this is not the case with leftism. Leftism makes people meaner, even crueler. Take the …

“Homosexuality is fruitless, it’s fruitless. There is nothing that comes from the homosexual orgasm. Nothing. No fruit.

“You can be proud of about anything days, so long as it’s not straight, white, male, or God forbid, conservative.

“Let me try another way of putting D-Day in perspective. Now, numbers are hard to remember on the radio. The number of soldiers landed on the beaches at Normandy, on D-Day, 129,710.

Hemant Mehta writes at The Friendly Atheist: Another day, another Catholic leader saying something idiotic on Twitter, then doubling down on it. This time, it’s Father Kevin M.

Next thing you know, …

Todd Starnes writes for Fox Nation: Leaders of Rolling Thunder say they are ready to roar back into Washington to defend the president — if the Democrats move to impeach.
