Thank you Ann for today’s lesson. I admittedly looked up the word Syllogism. I opine: No matter how the left tries to spin it, they are the biggest offenders of a human persons’ civil rights with their “Whataboutism” practices. (I would even include animals’ rights too—remembering the beagle brain eating torture in the interest of “science.”) I made it through a few seconds of Stephanie Ruhle and whatever it was she was flailing about. (How do some of these folks get air time) I think Elise Stefanik is intelligent and smart. I cannot even listen to Maddow “I was shocked by how bad Ron DeSantis is at playing politician.” Maddow is so “off” and selfish. I hold out great hope for Vivek. Thank you for the link and history lesson of Dwight Eisenhower and the Central High Crisis Supreme Court struggle for civil rights article. As written by you I agree to your offering: American citizens’ rights were being violated. To me, a wake up call to the left that President Trump is a serious, evolved and good person.

And in 1962 similar events in Mississippi when Governor Ross Barnett did not protect federal agents in Oxford Mississippi from mobs. Kennedy federalized the Mississippi National Guard and brought in the 101st Airborne in case the Mississippi National Guard did not recognize their responsibilities. Kennedy had over 30000 troops in Mississippi under his orders. Does not matter what the Governors want.

I really admire Ann’s ability to stomach watching MSNBC for any length of time!

So dems are also afflicted with whataboutisms, a kind of "logical" disorder. Hmmm. Yet one more mental limitation of our lib opponents. Who knew? 🤷‍♂️

Almost made it to the very end without having to look up a word/phrase! Off to find "a fortiori." Coulter is always a good lesson.

This was the first in weeks where I DIDN'T have to look up a word!

I don't think we have anything to worry about; there's very little chance of Liberals learning about syllogisms. I think they'd have trouble enough just learning to spell it...

Don't forget JFK and his brother at Ole Miss. We had around 30,000 military troops in the small town of Oxford, Mississippi (population = around 5K ). They sent 30K to get 1 black into a university of 5K. The 30 was over a 6 month period, but they imposed and enforced Marshall Law for a while.

WHOPPI, actually named after a fart machine, is the whatabouter in chief. I just spit on the ground and hope i didn't offend any black people.

Great stuff as usual. I won’t repeat what I thought Syllogism ment. 😎

Great article Ann. Liberals don't like when we rub their nose on their hypocrisy. Same left-wingers who defended George Floyd rioting thugs, later demonized January 6 protesters as insurrectionists.

When unremarkable folks demand exceptional treatment, we are back to the necessary bigotry of low expectations. But how to execute this policy without invoking more outrage? The problem with dumb people is that they're just smart enough to know when you're talking down to them.

Ann, it's *not* "Breyer" and "Dumb Breyer". It's "Dumb Breyer" and "Dumber Breyer"!

Great column as always Ann. One quibble.

You write "Those aren't even like cases -- they're identical ones." Not exactly. Trump was president when he took the documents and clearly had a right to. Biden was a senator or vice president when he took the documents and did not have the same rights or privileges to do so as the president would.

Good job Ann, except I think you misstated the fact that Orval Faubus was Clinton's mentor. His actual mentor was another Arkansas segregationist, Sen. J. William Fulbright.
