By BARI WEISS AUG. 1, 2017
A mere half-year ago, before collusion and Comey, before Mika’s face and Muslim bans and the Mooch, there was a shining moment [ https://www.nytimes.com/2017/01/21/us/womens-march.html ] where millions of Americans flooded the streets in cities across the country to register their rage that an unapologetic misogynist had just been made leader of the free world.
Donald Trump’s election was a watershed moment. Even those like me, who had previously pulled levers for candidates of both parties, felt that Mr. Trump had not only violated all sense of common decency, but, alarmingly, that he seemed to have no idea that there even existed such an unspoken code of civility and dignity. Now was the time to build a broad coalition to resist the genital-grabber with the nuclear codes.
The image of this fearsome foursome [ http://www.elle.com/culture/career-politics/news/a43682/seven-things-leaders-of-the-womens-march-want-you-to-know/ ], echoed in more than a few flattering profiles, was as seductive as a Benetton ad. There was Tamika Mallory, a young black activist who was crowned the “Sojourner Truth of our time” by Jet magazine and “a leader of tomorrow” by Valerie Jarrett. Carmen Perez, a Mexican-American and a veteran political organizer, was named one of Fortune’s Top 50 World Leaders. Linda Sarsour, a hijab-wearing Palestinian-American and the former head of the Arab-American Association of New York, had been recognized as a “champion of change” by the Obama White House. And Bob Bland, the fashion designer behind the “Nasty Women” T-shirts, was the white mother who came up with the idea of the march in the first place.
What wasn’t to like?
A lot, as it turns out. The leaders of the Women’s March, arguably the most prominent feminists in the country, have some chilling ideas and associations. Far from erecting the big tent so many had hoped for, the movement they lead has embraced decidedly illiberal causes and cultivated a radical tenor that seems determined to alienate all but the most woke.
But just last month, Ms. Sarsour proved that her past is prologue. On July 16, the official Twitter feed of the Women’s March offered [ https://twitter.com/womensmarch/status/886652647582859264 ] warm wishes to Assata Shakur. “Happy birthday to the revolutionary #AssataShakur [ https://twitter.com/hashtag/AssataShakur ]!” read the tweet, which featured a “#SignOfResistance [ https://twitter.com/hashtag/SignOfResistance ], in Assata’s honor” — a pink and purple Pop Art-style portrait of Ms. Shakur, better known as Joanne Chesimard, a convicted killer who is on the F.B.I.’s list of most wanted terrorists.
Like many others, CNN’s Jake Tapper noticed the outrageous tweet. “Shakur is a cop-killer fugitive in Cuba,” he tweeted [ https://twitter.com/jaketapper/status/887404064811757568 ], going on to mention Ms. Sarsour’s troubling past statements. “Any progressives out there condemning this?” he asked.
There’s no doubt that Ms. Sarsour is a regular target of far-right groups, but her experience of that onslaught is what makes her smear all the more troubling. Indeed, the idea that Jake Tapper is a member of the alt-right is the kind of delirious, fact-free madness that fuels Donald Trump and his supporters. Troublingly, it is exactly the sentiment echoed [ https://twitter.com/womensmarch/status/887075572257624065 ] by the Women’s March: “Our power — your power — scares the far right. They continue to try to divide us. Today’s attacks on #AssataShakur [ https://twitter.com/hashtag/AssataShakur ] are the latest example.”
Since when did criticizing a domestic terrorist become a signal issue of the far right? Last I checked, that position was a matter of basic decency and patriotism.
What’s more distressing is that Ms. Sarsour is not the only leader of the women’s movement who harbors such alarming ideas. Largely overlooked have been the similarly outrageous statements of the march’s other organizers.
What is Mr. Farrakhan’s truth? Readers born after 1980 will probably have little idea, since he has largely remained out of the headlines since the Million Man March he organized in 1995. But his views, which this editorial page has called [ http://www.nytimes.com/1995/10/15/opinion/riders-on-the-storm.html ] “twisted,” remain as appalling as ever.
“And don’t you forget, when it’s God who puts you in the ovens, it’s forever!” he warned Jews in a speech at a Nation of Islam gathering in Madison Square Garden in 1985. Five years later, he remained unreformed: “The Jews, a small handful, control the movement of this great nation, like a radar controls the movement of a great ship in the waters.” Or this metaphor, directed at Jews: “You have wrapped your tentacles around the U.S. government, and you are deceiving and sending this nation to hell.” He called [ http://www.nytimes.com/1984/07/17/us/farrakhan-again-describes-hitler-as-a-very-great-man.html ] Hitler “a very great man” on national television. Judaism, he insists, is a “gutter religion.”
that “the control of the Synagogue of Satan over our people must be exposed.” He adds: “These satanic ones have not only controlled hip-hop but they control, according to their own words, the very messages that are brought to the public.” He goes on to offer a truly remarkable analysis of the hip-hop industry in which “intelligent” rappers are rejected by the “satanic minds” who insist that they “want filth” and encourage “vulgarity” and “savagery.” This is the first 10 minutes of an hour.
Mr. Farrakhan is also an unapologetic racist. He insists that whites are a “race of devils” and that “white people deserve to die.”
I can already hear the pushback. What’s a few impolitic tweets and photos compared to the horror show of this administration? Save your outrage for the transgender ban in the military, for the lies that spew forth daily from the press briefing room, for the cuts to Planned Parenthood, the shady business with Russia, and, and, and.
But the nightmare of the Trump administration is the proof text for why all of this matters. We just saw what happens to legitimate political parties when they fall prey to movements that are, at base, anti-American. That is true of the populist, racist alt-right that helped deliver Mr. Trump the White House and are now hollowing out the Republican Party. And it can be true of the progressive “resistance” — regardless of how chic, Instagrammable and celebrity-laden the movement may seem. Recall that only a few months ago, Keith Ellison, a man with a long history [ http://www.cnn.com/2016/12/01/politics/kfile-keith-ellison-nation-of-islam/ ] of defending and working with anti-Semites, was almost made leader of the Democratic National Committee.
Will progressives have more spine than conservatives in policing hate in their ranks? Or will they ignore it in their fury over the Trump administration?
I am sure that Linda Sarsour, and perhaps the other leaders of the Women’s March, will block me for writing this. Maybe I’ll be accused of siding with the alt-right or tarred as Islamophobic. But what I stand against is embracing terrorists, disdaining independent feminist voices, hating on democracies and celebrating dictatorships. If that puts me beyond the pale of the progressive feminist movement in America right now, so be it.

A Trump Speech Written By Artificial Intelligence | The New Yorker
Published on Jul 27, 2017 by The New Yorker
We fed 270,000 words spoken by Trump into a computer program that studies language patterns. This system analyzed his word choice and grammar, learning how to simulate Trump's speech. Here is the speech written entirely by artificial intelligence.
When prompting the neural network for written output, the system allows the user to select a “temperature”, which tells the program how creative or daring to be with its word choice. At low temperatures, the neural network always chooses the most-likely next character as it's generating a sequence, while at high temperatures it will choose a character that's farther down the probability list.

Trump plans to sign new Russia sanctions bill, White House says July 28, 2017 President Trump plans to sign legislation slapping new punitive sanctions on Russia over election meddling, the White House said Friday, effectively ending hopes for the fresh start with Moscow that he came into office promising to seek. Trump opposed the legislation as an infringement on executive power but faced the certainty of an embarrassing congressional override if he vetoed it. The announcement came hours after the Russian government announced that it would seize U.S. diplomatic properties and kick out a large number of U.S. diplomats. The Russian action was in response to the sanctions bill passed by Congress on Thursday. It signaled a loss of patience by Russian President Vladimir Putin with the Trump administration’s inability to change the troubled relationship between the two nuclear-armed powers, which stands at its lowest point since the end of the Cold War. The legislation handcuffs Trump’s power to lift earlier punitive measures taken by the United States in response to Russia’s actions in Ukraine — the top priority for Putin in any remake of the U.S.-Russia relationship. “President Donald J. Trump read early drafts of the bill and negotiated regarding critical elements of it,” a White House statement said. “He has now reviewed the final version and, based on its responsiveness to his negotiations, approves the bill and intends to sign it.” [...] https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/europe/russia-demands-us-reduce-diplomatic-staff-in-new-round-of-conflict-over-election/2017/07/28/42a567fe-7378-11e7-803f-a6c989606ac7_story.html [with embedded video, and comments]
Trump Blames Congress for ‘All-Time’ Poor Relations With Russia In tweet, the president seems to suggest the sanctions bill he signed a day before is to blame Aug. 3, 2017 Updated Aug. 3, 2017 President Donald Trump laid the blame on Congress Thursday for what he described as the deterioration to an “all-time & very dangerous low” of relations with Russia, a day after he signed a bill that slaps sanctions on Russia [ https://www.wsj.com/articles/president-trump-signs-sanctions-bill-aimed-at-punishing-russia-for-election-meddling-1501685839 ] for its interference in the 2016 elections. In a morning tweet [ https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/893083735633129472 ], Mr. Trump said: “Our relationship with Russia is at an all-time & very dangerous low. You can thank Congress, the same people that can’t even give us HCare [heath care]!” Mr. Trump’s criticism of the Russian sanctions measure indicates a divergence at the highest level of the White House over managing the Russian relationship. Vice President Mike Pence, in a trip to Eastern Europe this week, spoke repeatedly about the bill [ https://www.wsj.com/articles/pence-delivers-tough-speech-on-unpredictable-russia-1501521198 ], casting it as a necessary step toward holding Russia accountable for its actions. He expressed none of the misgivings that Mr. Trump has laid out. While the president said he worries the legislation limits the president’s executive power, Mr. Pence said it still affords the White House the “flexibility” needed to conduct diplomacy.
