Russiagate turned out to be “Deflategate” in that the Mueller report deflated the 24-7 media narrative that the Trump campaign colluded with the Kremlin. Against that backdrop, Aaron Maté joins an exclusive club, consisting of Glenn Greenwald, Matt Taibbi, Michael Tracey, and Caitlin Johnstone and just a few other anti-Trump, left-wing/progressive journalists essentially concluding that the whole thing indeed was an establishment/media-driven hoax, if not a coup attempt against a sitting president.

In yet another example how wearing a Make America Great Again (MAGA) hat can be hazardous, a man identifying himself as a DACA recipient was assaulted on a Los Angeles college campus.
The Never Trumpers are GOP establishment luminaries and others in the Washington-New York media/political circuit who would have preferred Democrat Hillary Clinton winning the presidency in 2016 over their party’s official candidate. Since the election, vocal Never Trumpers, Republicans in Name Only, and assorted globalists have gone increasingly left ideologically out of animosity for the 45th president. Putting the “con” in conservative, they have abandoned all the long-time principles they supposedly espoused to collect a check from CNN or MSNBC or another liberal benefactor.
In the aftermath of the release of the Mueller report, news media agencies have engaged in retrospectives about their coverage of the Russia collusion investigation. These circle-the wagons analyses have ranged from “we did a good job” to “we did a really good job.” Thus, based on their behavior so far, Trump foe Matt Taibbi, a contributing editor for the far-left Rolling Stone magazine, expects that media outlets will learn nothing from what he described as the Russiagate fiasco.
About 60 percent of U.K. Conservative Party members say they will vote for Nigel Farage’s newly launched Brexit Party in the elections for the European Parliament. This is according to a survey by Conservative Home, which calls the findings “the most astonishing we have ever published” and reflects anger over Theresa May’s epic Brexit failure.
Two men who allegedly assaulted Germantown, Md., resident Atsu Mable, a Trump supporter, are in police custody. Mable, an immigrant from Togo, was merely walking in his neighborhood last Saturday evening after dinner while wearing a Make America Great Again (MAGA) hat when the duo confronted him.
Special Counsel Mueller’s report released today concluded that there was no collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia. Nor was there any obstruction of justice by President Trump. But does there need to be a further inquiry into collusion?
Nigel Farage’s newly formed Brexit Party could win the European Union parliamentary election on May 23, if new polling data from YouGov is accurate. The surging Brexit Party appears to be taking votes from a combination of Brexit-supporting Conservatives (a.k.a. Tories) and Labor voters as well as the United Kingdom Independence Party, UKIP or Ukip, which for various reasons has lost market share.
As a result of the sabotage of Brexit by U.K. Prime Minister Theresa May and other Remainers in the country’s parliament, a new, grassroots political movement called the Brexit Party has emerged. Brexit champion Nigel Farage, the former UKIP leader, and others officially launched the party today.
Benjamin Netanyahu has won reelection as prime minister of Israel, putting him on course to be the country’s longest-serving chief executive in the Jewish state’s history. The Netanyahu right-wing coalition gives the incumbent leader a majority in Israel’s multi-party parliament, the Knesset, which is necessary to form a government. Under a parliamentary system, the “government” is essentially equivalent to our executive branch, with key member of parliament simultaneously serving in the leader’s cabinet. Although it won the same number of seats as Netanyahu’s Likud Party, the opposition “centrist” Blue and White coalition has formally conceded. Israel is the only functioning, multi-ethnic democracy in the Middle East.
