Felicity Huffman and Lori Loughlin weren’t the first people to use outside sources to game the system of college admissions. I wrote in 2012 about how Barack Obama needed and used outside help to gain entrance to Harvard Law School. My discovery of a 1979 newspaper column by the father of Obama’s top adviser Valerie
We owe a debt of gratitude to Real Clear Investigations reporter Paul Sperry for exposing to the rest of us what the Deep Swamp Media already knew — that the original conspiracy against Donald Trump continues unfettered while all the fake investigations are barking up the wrong tree.

Turns out that while I was praising Fox for defending Tucker Carlson from the Outrage Mob, the channel was backstabbing Pirro. Fox News actually pulled Pirro’s
Two columns featured at Real Clear Politics this morning highlight the scary trend in American politics toward shaming and retribution.
