UPDATED Sunday evening: Watch The Moment Bill Clinton Totally Loses It Over 1 Question These Protesters Ask About Hillary
UPDATE: Video exclusive: Marine booted from Clinton rally pours his heart out after event in emotional interview
Western Journalism "The man who as president parried questions about his affair with Monica Lewinsky with style and a smile was driven to distraction Friday when hecklers insisted his wife lied about the 2012 attacks on the American compound in Benghazi, Libya. Four Americans died in the attacks.
'SNL's' Kate McKinnon on Hillary Clinton: 'I just love her so dearly'
McKinnon said, "The impersonations always come from a place of love. I refuse to do it otherwise.' " How tender.
. . . "He praised the police officers who removed him and shared his contempt for the former secretary of state who had no regard for the lives of his brothers.
"The man, who identified himself only as a Marine Sergeant, explained to freelance travel journalist T.J. Champitto of TheBlazingNomad.com why he was so animated when he asked former president Bill Clinton to answer for his wife’s incompetence.
“ 'Benghazi was a direct result of failed performance of Hillary Clinton,” the Marine who said he served for five years in an infantry unit and three years training recruits on Parris Island, told Champitto. “She failed to perform. Not only that but she lied about it and she tried to cover it up.
Now back to the original post:
“Hillary lied over four coffins!” a woman in the crowd yelled out. “She lied and she lied to those families, so all those families are liars? I want to know. Did she lie?”

Trump, the EU crack-up and Israel
In the final analysis, Trump’s rise in America and the rise of the populists in Europe is yet another indication of the West’s growing identity crisis fueled by its economic, social, military and cultural weakness. Israel needs to read the writing on the wall and act appropriately lest we become a casualty of that identity crisis.
Israel the bully
Caroline Glick "Trump is popular because he has a rare ability to channel the deep-seated frustrations that much of the American public harbors toward its political and cultural elites.
"Trump’s presidential bid isn’t based on specific, defined economic or foreign policy platforms or plans. Indeed, it isn’t clear that he even has any.
"Trump’s campaign is based on his capacity to resonate two deeply felt frustrations harbored by a large cross-section of American citizens.
"As The Wall Street Journal’s Daniel Henninger explained recently, a very large group of Americans is frustrated – or enraged – by the intellectual and social terror exercised upon them by the commissars of political correctness.
. . .
"If Trump is elected president and if Britain leads the charge of nations out of the EU, then Israel can expect its relations with both the US and Europe to be marked by turbulence and uncertainty that can lead in a positive direction or a negative direction, or even to both directions at the same time.
"Just as Trump has stated both that he will support Israel and be neutral toward Israel, so we can expect for Trump to stand by Israel one day and to rebuke it angrily, even brutally, the next day.
"So, too, under Trump, the US may send forces to confront Iran one day, only to announce that Trump is embarking on negotiations to get a sweetheart deal with the ayatollahs the next."

Starnes: Republicans need to stop acting the foolWeimar America
Victor Davis Hanson
. . . "No one can figure out how and why America’s youth have borrowed a collective $1 trillion for college tuition, and yet received so little education and skills in the bargain. Today’s campuses have become as foreign to American traditions of tolerance and free expression as what followed the Weimar Republic. To appreciate cry-bully censorship, visit a campus “free-speech” area. To witness segregation, walk into a college “safe space.” To hear unapologetic anti-Semitism, attend a university lecture. To learn of the absence of due process, read of a campus hearing on alleged sexual assault. To see a brown shirt in action, watch faculty call for muscle at a campus demonstration. To relearn the mentality of a Chamberlain or Daladier, listen to the contextualizations of a college president. And to talk to an uneducated person, approach a recent college graduate." . . .
