PASS THE POPCORN, NAHANNI: New York Times Pundit Slams Kamala Harris
Kamala Harris has made a career of consistently running away from her record.
• As San Francisco DA and as California AG, Harris “championed” a law that put the parents of truant kids in jail. But as a candidate for president, she has been caught trying to cover up her record on truancy.
• As San Francisco DA, Harris called decriminalizing prostitution “completely ridiculous.” But earlier this year, Kamala made a complete reversal and said she supports decriminalizing prostitution.
• As San Francisco DA, Harris made INCREASING bail costs a priority. Now she wants to reform bail.
Oh, but there's more!

VICTOR DAVIS HANSON: Russian "Collusion’s" Greatest Hits
The Case for Trump, by Victor Davis Hanson
A mostly progressive team of lawyers, with an unlimited budget, no restrictions on time, and with enormous legal powers found all of that to be a lie.
Unable to find Trump likely guilty of either collusion or obstruction of investigating the non-crime of collusion, they instead salted their report with innuendo and rumor of what the enraged Trump was supposedly thinking about, raging about, and talking about among his closest confidants, including the insurrectionary statement of his press secretary who allegedly sinned by exaggerating the extent of FBI rank and file unhappiness over the firing of James Comey.
All that was a long, slow distraction over real culpability on the part of a number of our supposed best and brightest. And here are some of their most absurd moments from the Orwellian hunt for collusion.

14 ANGRY DEMOCRATS INDEED: How Could a 400-Page Report About Russian Collusion Fail to Mention Fusion GPS?
To put this omission into perspective, consider that Michael Cohen is mentioned in the report 877 times, Paul Manafort 624 times, Carter Page 31 times and Christopher Steele 24 times.
"Steele reporting" (the Mueller term for the Russian "Dossier") is mentioned a scant nine times, yet it played -- according to former-FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe -- a central role in the initiation of FISA surveillance against the Trump campaign.
Underscoring the egregious, partisan nature of the Mueller report is the fact that nowhere does the massive document touch upon the role of Fusion GPS. Instead there is a single, oblique reference to "the firm that produced the Steele reporting":

5 Key Items Missing From Cub Scout Mueller's Partisan Op-Ed
The Mueller Report is a joke.
Its omissions are more glaring than its content.
Here are five key elements curiously absent from Robert Mueller's Special Counsel Report.
1. Who leaked the Flynn-Kislyak conversation to the press?
Authorized to pursue any criminal activity arising from his investigation, Mueller somehow overlooked the felony leak of the recorded conversation between Gen. Michael Flynn and Russian Ambassador Sergey Kislyak to The New York Times. Why?
2. Why were no Obama-era intel officials interviewed for a report supposedly about Russian interference in the election?
From Susan Rice telling officials concerned about Russian cyberwarfare activities to "stand down" to John Brennan's bizarre interactions with "Five Eyes" allies, Mueller's report is utterly silent (Hat tip: Mark Levin).
3. Why were Russian Lawyer Veselnitskaya's meeting with Fusion GPS before and after the Trump Tower meeting omitted?
According to Senate transcripts, Fusion GPS founder Glenn Simpson met with Russian lawyer Natalia Veselnitskaya both the day before and the day after her 6/9/16 meeting with Donald Trump, Jr. at Trump Tower.
4. Why no mention of bias and untoward behavior of investigators removed from the Special Counsel?
At least four of Mueller's investigators (Peter Strzok, Lisa Page, Kevin Clinesmith, and Sally Moyer) were removed from the Special Counsel due to various untoward and/or possibly illegal activities. Mueller's report never explains why, nor how his team addressed chain of custody or spoliation.
5. How can it be that the "hacking" of the DNC server was never investigated?
With all of the various Russian actors named by Mueller, somehow he and his investigators never got around to the original "hacking" of the DNC. According to James Comey, the Democrat National Committee never allowed federal investigators to physically access their compromised server.
This is curious FBI deference to a political entity that one Donald J. Trump was never afforded.

QOTD: “Note... what isn’t in the report. It makes only passing, bland references to the genesis of so many of the accusations Mr. Mueller probed: the infamous dossier produced by opposition-research firm Fusion GPS and paid for by the Hillary Clinton campaign. How do you exonerate Mr. Page without delving into the scandalous Moscow deeds of which he was falsely accused? How do you narrate an entire section on the July 2016 Trump Tower meeting without noting that Ms. Veselnitskaya was working alongside Fusion? How do you detail every aspect of the Papadopoulos accusations while avoiding any detail of the curious and suspect ways that those accusations came back to the FBI via Australia’s Alexander Downer?
The report instead mostly reads as a lengthy defense of the FBI—of its shaky claims about how its investigation began, of its far-fetched theories, of its procedures, even of its leadership. One of the more telling sections concerns Mr. Comey’s firing. Mr. Mueller’s team finds it generally beyond the realm of possibility that the FBI director was canned for incompetence or insubordination. It treats everything the FBI or Mr. Comey did as legitimate, even as it treats everything the president did as suspect." --Kimberley A. Strassel

Rudy Giuliani has the #MuellerReport Quote o' the Day
The special counsel has Used a standard of proof that's unheard of. He can't be 'conclusively sure' that the president didn't commit obstruction. Well, that means the President has to prove his innocence. That kind of upends 2,000 years of jurisprudence...Sh**'s gonna get real for these fools very, very soon.
...The overarching principle of obstruction law is it's very, very hard to make an obstruction case when there is no proof there's an underlying crime."

VICTOR DAVIS HANSON: Are There Any Limits to Illegal Immigration?
The U.S.-Mexican border is essentially wide open.
Why? Because there is a general expectation in Mexico and Latin America that American immigration law is unenforced. Or it is so bizarre that simple illegal entry almost always ensures temporary legal residence, pending an asylum hearing.
A scheduled asylum hearing, in turn, is seen by border crossers as a mere formality to be ignored. The popular perception on the border, then, is to stick one foot illegally onto U.S. soil, and, presto, win permanent residence for you and any family members who wish to follow.
In an age of 500 sanctuary city and county jurisdictions, few illegal aliens believe they will ever be deported permanently, even if they have been apprehended committing serious crimes. There is also a general perception among would-be illegal entrants that prominent Democrats and progressives welcome their massive influxes as useful and will do their best to ensure illegal immigration continues unabated.
