Republican commentators like to point out that Donald Trump’s lawfare problem may backfire on his political opponents. If the Democrats try to steal the presidential election by burdening the Republican candidate with frivolous lawsuits, then the Republicans will inflict similar suffering on their opponents once they get the chance. Why should we think that only Democrats can get away with such games? Perhaps the most detailed argument about this matter has come from Rabbi Dov Fischer, a...
It’s rare that the books written by politicians aspiring to higher office include anything interesting, so give South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem credit: She got people to pay attention to her soon-to-be-released entry in this sleep-inducing genre. And all it took was shooting a dog in the head. The Guardian was the first to get its hands on Noem’s account of the dog’s demise. The ill-fated wirehaired pointer, a puppy named Cricket, was difficult to control, it wasn’t taking well to being trained...
Politicians and dog experts are criticizing South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem after she wrote in a new book about killing a rambunctious puppy. The story — and the vilification she received on social media — has some wondering whether she’s still a viable potential running mate for presumptive Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump.

We already knew the entertainment industry has more or less become a technocracy, but hearing about it still feels surreal. Sadly, all the human entertainment execs can do these days is lay down mere mortal ideas on the altar of the almighty algorithm, enslaved to the whims of whatever ones and zeroes say will be successful. That is to say, according to A Knight’s Tale director Brian Helgeland, Netflix shot down his pitch for a sequel because its algorithm said so. “Paul Bettany called me after...
