There was a mass shooting at an Independence Day parade in Highland Park, IL today. The shooter managed to flee. Everybody was freaking out. While the police were trying to apprehend the bastard, Darren Bailey, the GOP candidate for Governor, decided it was necessary to record a video, asking everybody to “move on and celebrate.”
The shooter had been filmed at Trump rallies, so we can all imagine how “move on and celebrate” will be interpreted.
Illinois is a big, important state. Why can’t we get anybody who isn’t a complete moron run on either side? If I had to guess whether Bailey or Pritzker is more intellectually impotent, I wouldn’t be able to say.
The shooter has been apprehended, at least. The police know what they are doing, even if politicians don’t.
Would’ve been nice to have Sullivan, I think. Oh well, victory here was unlikely regardless

Israel was afraid to anger Putin because of Syria and Russian Jews, yet Putin decided to force Israel to take a braver stand. Moscow is ingenious in creating enemies, isn’t it?
The major Israeli English-language newspaper has published today:
Russia orders Jewish Agency to stop all operations in country – exclusive
Dramatic order given to Jewish Agency by government officials in Moscow • Israeli government considering next steps

This is exactly what I keep saying about the fears of “provoking Russia.” Russians aren’t reactive. They will do whatever they will do regardless of what one does. Theirs is a closed loop that accepts no feedback.
