Why the latest White House crisis is a really big deal" Stephen Collinson Profile By Stephen Collinson, CNN Tue May 16, 2017

It's even possible that lives could be at risk, considering that the information Trump reportedly shared was related to an ISIS terror plot against civil aviation -- currently the most urgent terrorist threat to the United States -- and emanated from a sensitive intelligence sharing agreement with a foreign agency.


...

Lawmakers and intelligence officials are already warning that disclosing this type of information could harm US efforts to counter an ISIS plot to place explosives in laptops and other electronic devices to evade airport security.

Commie in the 1950's, racist in the 21st century

In the 1950's, the term of opprobrium was "commie."  To call a person, or to insinuate, a person was a "commie" was to effectively smear the person and cast  grave doubts about the character and integrity of the same, if not end the career and cause the person to be socially ostracized.

In the 21st century, the hot button word is "racist," and it is almost always applied to Caucasians and rarely people "of color."

The problem is that "racist" means different things to different people, and that many if not most liberals simply use the label to simply mean that they do not think that the action(s) or words that another person uses are "fair" to African-Americans.  These same people usually emphatically disagree with what you even if, objectively speaking (and if have you provide empirical evidence as well as personal experience to boot), you have said nothing that would indicate or necessarily imply that one believes all or even most individuals of a certain category possess certain non-physical traits based on their race.

There is always "a good guy" and "a bad guy," a "cowboy" and an "Indian" in the American mythology.

You cannot have a rational or open [public] conversation about race in America.  Or at least only with great difficulty. And liberals are as much to blame for this as conservatives, if not much.  Their minds are made up.  And closed.

"You're either for us, or against us."

What's going on on American campuses?

"That's emblematic of what's going on, on campuses; this kind of Manichaean split... I'm generalizing here, but the purpose of universities for large numbers of faculty is social justice — not search for truth."

That means "allowing marginalized people to have their proper place in the world and bringing down those who do the oppression," he [Charles Murray] said.
