The new news normal

The New Neo Posted on February 14, 2018 by neoFebruary 14, 2018

Ben Shapiro writes about news coverage these days: You’ve heard the phrase over and over again: “This isn’t normal.” We’ve heard it about President Trump’s rhetoric, and his Twitter usage. We’ve heard it about his attacks on the media, and … Continue reading →

Schiff memo delayed; McCarthy on the Grassley-Graham memo

The New Neo Posted on February 10, 2018 by neoFebruary 10, 2018

Yesterday I wrote a post that pointed out the following: The Democrats protested mightily that the Nunes memo could not be released because it would expose too much secret and/or classified information and compromise our national security. But the Schiff … Continue reading →

Principled liberal

The New Neo Posted on February 9, 2018 by neoFebruary 9, 2018

This is the way I remember liberals thinking long ago. Not all of them, of course; but a lot more of them compared to these days, when statements like these from liberals have become awfully scarce [hat tip: Powerline]: Garrow … Continue reading →

Dueling redactions

The New Neo Posted on February 9, 2018 by neoFebruary 9, 2018

The Democrats protested mightily that the Nunes memo could not be released because it would expose too much secret and/or classified information and compromise our national security. But the Schiff memo—ah, the Schiff memo! If you redact parts of it … Continue reading →

The New Neo Posted on February 8, 2018 by neoFebruary 8, 2018

How many memos and letters will be released before this is over? More details of the letter issued by senators Grassley and Graham have come out, quoted in this article by Mollie Hemingway. I had originally referenced that memo in … Continue reading →

The Big Effing Deal versus the Nothingburger

The New Neo Posted on February 6, 2018 by neoFebruary 6, 2018

I want to clear one thing up. The anti-Trump forces tried to sell the idea that release of the Nunes memo would be terribly dangerous because it would compromise sources, methods, and security, and release classified information. That was originally … Continue reading →

A lawyer’s and a judge’s reaction to the Nunes memo

The New Neo Posted on February 6, 2018 by neoFebruary 6, 2018

Surprisingly enough, this piece by Hugh Hewitt appeared in the WaPo, of all places. Hewitt formerly held a job that’s very relevant to opining on the FBI’s FISA application to surveil Carter Page: Having reviewed hundreds and hundreds of Foreign … Continue reading →

The tactics du jour

The New Neo Posted on February 3, 2018 by neoFebruary 7, 2018

If you look at memeorandum’s roundup for today, you have to hand it to the Democrats as propagandists. They have their methods for deflecting the Nunes report and everything in it, and I have little doubt their methods will work … Continue reading →

More thoughts on the Nunes memo and the reaction to it

The New Neo Posted on February 3, 2018 by neoFebruary 3, 2018

And the incredibly fair and unbiased James Comey…

The New Neo Posted on February 2, 2018 by neoFebruary 2, 2018

…had this to say about the Nunes memo: That’s it? Dishonest and misleading memo wrecked the House intel committee, destroyed trust with Intelligence Community, damaged relationship with FISA court, and inexcusably exposed classified investigation of an American citizen.
