LISTEN: Speaking of Arkansas – What’s the future of the Clinton House Museum? – Northwest Arkansas Democrat-Gazette

[DON'T SEE THE PODCAST ABOVE? CLICK HERE: nwaonline.com/617museum/]

Bill Clinton's presidency ended more than 20 years ago, but he remains the first and only Arkansan to have made it to the political Mount Everest, the White House. Well before he and Hillary Clinton were residents at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue in Washington, D.C., they got married inside a small brick house at 930 California Drive in Fayetteville, Arkansas.

Today, the house is the Clinton House Museum, a local effort to preserve and commemorate the place where the couple joined friends and supporters to plot out the early days of Bill Clinton's political journey. A house in Hope, Arkansas, is where William Jefferson Blythe was born, but it could be said this house in Fayetteville became the birthplace of his political success, the setting for his first successful run for public office to become Arkansas' attorney general.

The house is owned by the University of Arkansas, which also owns a number of other older houses in the area adjacent to the UA campus. The university leases the home to the board of directors of the Clinton House Museum, which is working to ensure the property's future as a stop on the so-called "Billgramage" is preserved.

In this episode of Speaking of Arkansas, that board's president, former UA professor Stephen Smith, discusses the museum's future, the house's place in political history and the efforts to build an endowment to fund operation of the small museum.

For additional information, visit clintonhousemuseum.org. The museum at 930 W. Clinton Drive is open from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Thursday through Saturday.

The week in whoppers: Team Biden’s gas-price cluelessness, NPR’s PC silliness and more – New York Post

Diary of disturbing disinformation and dangerous delusionsThis flashback

We forecast that retail gasoline prices will [fall to] $2.88/gal on average in 2022.

US Energy Information Administration, Dec. 7, 2021 (just seven months ago)

We say: Talk about clueless! The national average price hit $5.09 a gallon Thursday, per AAA.

Tampons, a necessity for many, are becoming harder and harder to find.

People who menstruate are saying it's hard to find tampons on store shelves across the U.S. right now, as supply chain upsets reach the feminine care aisle.https://t.co/p5mAPlSwPM

We say: People who menstruate? Gee, what kind of people might those be men? NPRs silly phrase is a natural progression from terms like birthing people, chestfeeding and gender-neutral pronouns like they and xe. But most people know that only one type of person is capable of menstruation (and giving birth): women. And the networks attempt to hide that fact in the interest of political correctness only makes it look ridiculous.

Elon Musk is not a leader. Hes just another Republican billionaire who supports white supremacy and authoritarianism because he doesn't want his workers to unionize or to pay his fair share in taxes.

The GOP just tried to end democracy and now hes supporting them. https://t.co/WArBQQsHK5

We say: Everyones entitled to his opinion, but shouldnt lawmakers like Rep. Jamaal Bowman (D-NY) be expected to make sense? Mayra Flores was born in Mexico.

We say: You cant ask for better proof of Salons desperation for clicks (from the left) than this headline. Yet the story, too, absurdly links Christian belief to those who seek violence, claiming its become normal for Republicans to pray for the death of Democratic presidents. Author Thomas Lecaque actually suggests this isnt a fringe phenomenon but part of the core problem of the GOP. Alas, if anything, the evidence he cites GOP politicians like Kandiss Taylor, who used the slogan Jesus, Guns, Babies (hardly a sign she backs violence) but failed to get more than 3% of the vote in Georgias Republican gubernatorial primary last month proves just the opposite.

The [right-wing media are] too reluctant to stand up for the truth in the face of massive lying to call a lie a lie.

Hillary Clinton, quoted in The New Statesman, June 14

We say: Uh, does Clinton mean the right-wing social media that squelched The Posts Hunter Biden laptop story in 2020 and the mainstream media that pooh-poohed it to ensure Joe Bidens win only to later admit it was all 100% true? Is she talking about the medias failure to call out the Russia Collusion hoax that her own campaign launched beginning in 2016? Ha! Shes referring mostly to Trumps (false) claims that the 2020 election was stolen. But who is Clinton to gripe about that when she herself claimed 16 was stolen based on a lie her own campaign promoted?

Yes, actually, the January 6 hearings are more important than the price of gas – Nevada Current

A rogues gallery of conspiracy-pushing celebrity wannabes, grifters, and mere garden-variety windsocks hoping to locate a good-paying government job without the help of a moral compass all endorsed by or embracing Donald Trump won their primaries in Nevada this week. For reasons none of them have explained, all of them promise that if you vote for them the price of gas will go down.

Which naturally got me yet again thinking about the January 6 committee hearings.

And that in turn naturally got me thinking about Liz Cheneys dad and the invasion of Iraq.

Many of the same people who have embraced Trumps Big Lie narrative not only Republicans in Congress whose dishonor will remain, as Cheney the Younger put it in the first hearing, but also a significant portion of the Trumpist electorate were the same people who exhibited fist-pumping excitement and enthusiasm for Cheney the Elders optional war of naked military aggression.

Just as the GOP is the party of Trump now, during the Bush-Cheney years it was the party of war. The war was what defined Republicans and what they believed in, and if you didnt agree with them then as far as they were concerned you were soft on terrorism and didnt support the troops and were anti-American. Things were super ugly then, too, you see.

Going on two decades since Republicans, assisted by Harry Reid, Hillary Clinton, John Kerry, Joe Biden and way too many other Senate Democrats, gave the Bush-Cheney crowd a blank check to go a-warmongering, most of the people who were so very hot for the war in the first place have now modified their strong and heartfelt passion about the issue.

Their new position on Americas runaway war on terror: Never mind.

The day after January 6, I suggested Trump and Trumpism was destined for a similar fate; that Trumps madding crowds, including hordes of sycophantic Republican politicians, would begin to oh so conveniently forget how in thrall they were to Trumpism, and hope that everyone else would politely not remind them of their, well, dishonor.

And on the day after January 6, shocked and stunned by what wed all seen, I assumed the GOPs convenient never-mindism with respect to their full-throated embrace of Trump and Trumpism was already starting. Obviously I was wrong (not unprecedented).

Now, by letting testimony from Republicans, most of them from Trumps own orbit, tell the tale, the January 6 hearings are powerfully demonstrating the importance of unpacking the real events that prompted the insurrection, and the very real crimes committed and condoned by Trump & Co. along the way.

And once again I find myself thinking that Republicans, both elected ones and individual voting ones, will inevitably wrap themselves in comforting cloaks of denial and convince themselves that they were never that into Trump not them and distance themselves from Trump and Trumpism sooner rather than later.

Which brings us back to Nevadas ludicrous GOP primary results.

In the governors race, presumptive nominee Joe Lombardos campaign handlers have echoed Virginia GOP Gov. Glenn Youngkins campaign strategy from last year, basking in Trumps endorsement while striving to keep Trump somewhat at arms length. And while Lombardo has pandered to the stop the steal crowd with deliberately vague (and evidence-free) suggestions that some unspecified something somehow was very wrong with the 2020 election, he has, to his credit (its a low bar in the GOP these days), declined to declare that Bidens victory is illegitimate.

That makes Lombardo unique among the cast of characters launched into the 2022 general election by Nevada Republican primary voters.

Adam Laxalt, Jim Marchant, Michele Fiore, Sigal Chattah, and Sam Peters, candidates for Senate, secretary of state, treasurer, attorney general, and the fourth congressional district, respectively, are only some of the full-on Nevada Trumpists who won their primaries.

Nevada Republican voters are stuck with them, but by now they should be accustomed to such indignities. After all, long-time state GOP chairman Michael McDonald is one of Nevadas dopey fake electors who wittingly or not were at the heart of John Eastmans madcap but very real plot to overturn the election. Or as Mike Pence referred it to, as we learned in Thursdays January 6 committee hearing, rubber-room stuff. Which sounds like McDonald all over.

Nevada Democrats hold the governors office and all but one of the other statewide offices, along with five of the states six seats in the Congress, including Catherine Cortez Mastos U.S. Senate seat that Laxalt wants. Yet those offices are, if not literally, at least figuratively the GOPs to lose this year. The midterm election looked like it would be a bloodbath for Democrats even before large chunks of the electorate hardened their belief that the most existential issue of our age is not the rule of law but the price of gas. (To be fair, that belief is especially likely to take hold in a state where politicians and the powerful interests for which they stand are more inclined to stigmatize public transportation than build it.)

If Nevada Democratic voters do the same thing in the general election they did in the primary check out in resignation and dont bother to vote Nevadans will be subjected to a state chock full of elected officials wallowing in the aforementioned rubber-room stuff. With rubber-room consequences.

The January 6 committee isnt going to change the fundamentals of the campaign cycle. Or not change them much, anyway. The committees investigation isnt going to save the Democrats.

But the January 6 committees investigation isnt about saving Democratic politicians in Nevada or anywhere else. Its about far more important things, like the future of democracy and the rule of law in the U.S.

The prospects of a less frenzied, more sensible nation have seemed dire, even hopeless, as Trump, after slithering away from the White House in disgrace, has not only maintained but strengthened his control of pliant Republicans. Yet the Jan. 6 hearings provide a glimmer of hope that, unlikely as it may seem, hearts and minds can and will be changed, and that Trump and Trumpism will eventually become something Trumps legions, you know, would prefer not to talk about.

No one can be blamed for scoffing at such an optimistic view. Given this miserable timeline, pessimism is warranted.

On the bright side (where Im always looking), there was also a time when it was impossible to imagine the base of Republican voters quietly slinking away from Bush-Cheney militarism as their organizing principle. And yet, as the scale of the oops sank in, they did.

50 years ago, Watergate gave rise to the culture war and corroded our institutions – New York Post

Fifty years ago Friday, five men were arrested for burglarizing the Democratic National Committee at the Watergate complex.That set off a sad chain of events that changed the course of American history and gave rise to an increasinglyleftist ruling class thats weaponized keyinstitutions, includingthe press, national-security apparatus and law enforcement, to achieve its ends.

When I served as foreign-policy assistant to President Richard Nixon during his last years, wed discuss Watergate occasionally.As the 20thanniversary of the break-in approached, he recalled the radicals hostility toward him, ascribing it to his role in exposing and prosecuting establishment darling Alger Hiss as a Soviet spy which also raised the explosive question of Communist influence in the government and his handling of the Vietnam War.

Those who were after me, he said to me, werent interested in Watergate as much as they were interested in getting me on Hiss and on Vietnam. I gave them what they needed, but believe me, Watergate was just the excuse.

Are you saying that if it werent Watergate it would have been something else? I asked.

Thats my theory, he replied. He believed that since he was immune to the intellectual viruses of the leftist elites, they had to bring him down.

This is not to excuse Nixons behavior. His central role in the coverup for which he accepted full responsibility torpedoed his presidency.

He later admitted to having been blind to the threat he posed to entrenched establishment power. There are standards for Democrats, standards for Republicans; then there were standards for me. I was in a totally different category, he told me. I should have known that I . . . couldnt even sneeze . . . without someone ordering an investigation. So to that extent, I was stupid.

After they claimed Nixons scalp, these newly emboldened forces ramped up their efforts to undermine leaders they considered obstacles to their agenda: Presidents Ronald Reagan, George H.W. Bush and George W. Bush. Soon they sought to crush all opposition, particularly those they could not control, ferociously attacking Supreme Court nominees such as Robert Bork, Clarence Thomas and Brett Kavanaugh and even average Americans attending Tea Party protests, Trump rallies or school-board meetings.

This required turning critical institutions against us.The Justice Department and FBI became dangerously political, operating a two-tiered justice system in which wrongthinkers (like Gen. Michael Flynn and nonviolent Jan. 6 protesters) are disproportionately punished while leftist elites (like Hillary Clinton and Michael Sussmann) skate.As the outsider who spurned the corrupt establishment in favor of hardworking Americans, Donald Trump represented an existential threat. So these rotted organizations knowingly perpetuated the Russia hoax against a sitting president, crippling America in the process, and buried the truth about Hunter Bidens laptop.

Now theyre targeting parents for defending their kids. The radicals also weaponized education to indoctrinate children to hate America and embrace socialism, critical race theory and abusive sexualization.

The media openly work hand-in-glove with the left and Big Tech to silence speech, cancel dissenters and memory-hole truth.And the culture is directed by a nearly monolithic leftism; witness Disneys disastrous foray into woke virtue-signaling.

This modern cycle of national destruction began when the radicals saw an opportunity to take Nixon out. Though he was often derided as paranoid, Nixon had real enemies committed to his destruction, and he was equally committed to counterattacking, resulting in a harrowing dance of mutual annihilation.

Sound familiar? Those same dark forces will continue to wage ruthless war on anyone else who challenges their unaccountable power and corrupt status quo.

Watergate cast a large shadow over American politics and deepened an existing culture of political mistrust, to be sure.But it also normalized the criminalization of policy differences that has corroded our institutions and accelerated a dangerous tribalism that threatens our national cohesion.As a result, the left and its ruling-class handmaidens have felt increasingly empowered and justified in using all necessary means to achieve their ends.

The break-ins 50thanniversary will give the press a fresh opportunity to resurrect the long-ago scandal while minimizing current outrages, from skyrocketing inflation and gas prices to the open southern border to Biden family corruption.The lefts long march, turning our institutions into weapons of ideological war and torching any opposition along the way, rolls on.In retrospect, its clear theirsuccess in removing Nixon supercharged their mission.
