Democrats are saying there's nothing to see in the Durham report, as if conclusive evidence that the FBI was so biased against one political side that it broke its own rules and undermined democracy was no big deal, really.
It's true that we already knew about bias at the FBI -- but now it's official. Cut through all the new detail, and the problem emerges clearly: Democrats do not care about the bias, because it favored their party. This is a real problem.
If the show had been on the other foot, not only would the media have covered the revelations sensationally, but Republicans would have been among the first to denounce a state security apparatus that appeared to be doing their bidding.
No Democrat is doing so; moreover, no-one is apologizing for the false talking point, after 2019's IG report, that the original investigation was kosher, even if things later went bad. They weren't even curious to investigate. That's bad news.
This week's show will be slightly different from the norm: we'll focus on clips and topics, rather than guests -- and that, hopefully, will mean more input from the callers (unless you are all watching football on opening weekend).
Topics:
- The state of the economy
- The fight against crime
- The midterm election fight
- The struggle for peace between Russia and Ukraine
- The airstrike on the Venezuelan drug cartel
- The attempt to sink Kennedy
- The war in Gaza
- The case against Harvard
- The Trump presidency

One noteworthy passage concerns Amalek, the evil nation that attacked the Children of Israel as they made their Exodus from slavery to freedom. Deuteronomy 25:17-19 commands Jews to obliterate Amalek's memory.
The South African government accused Israel of genocide on the basis of a story about Amalek in the Book of Samuel, in which King Saul was commanded to wipe out the entire evil Amalekite nation.
Because Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu quoted this week's portion -- "Remember what Amalek did to you" (25:17), the South African government claimed he was commanding soldiers to commit genocide.
It was an absurd and malevolent misreading of the Bible and of Jewish tradition. The commandment, as observed by Jews today, is to remember the evil of Amalek and fight ...
