It seems that I’m often writing about incidents on Facebook these days; perhaps this means that I’m spending too much time on Facebook, or it might just mean that more of our discourse has shifted out of the campus sphere and onto social media.

Although Comey recently announced that the FBI has not changed its July recommendation that Clinton not be prosecuted for any criminal charges, examining the response to Comey’s announcement reveals a concerning underlying hypocrisy.

Stupid people are incredibly entertaining. So entertaining, in fact, that The O'Reilly Factor regularly sends out Jesse Watters to discover new kinds of dumb people to feature in a segment called Watters’ World.
