SHORT TAKES ON THE DRIFTING WRECKAGE – AT 11:58 P.M. ET: 

THE GREAT MORAL LEADER SPEAKS – From the Washington Times:  "Former President Jimmy Carter told AARP Inc. during a recent interview that many Americans hold 'feelings of superiority' toward minorities.  Mr. Carter spoke on a range of subjects with the magazine, including campaign spending and lobbyists, but he made a point to say that the U.S. still is lacking in terms of safeguarding civil rights.  'The recent publicity about mistreatment of black people in the judicial and police realm has been a reminder that the dreams of the civil rights movement have not been realized. […] Many Americans still have racist tendencies or feelings of superiority to people of color,' Mr. Carter told AARP, The Hill reported Thursday." 
What a complete jerk.  Americans have elected a black president.  Such racists.  And Asian Americans, obviously of a different race, are held in the highest esteem because of their work ethic and accomplishments.  Carter likes to pose as a moral leader, but his relationships with Mideast dictators and bullies have been duly noted.

THE TRUTH ABOUT THIS CROWD COMES OUT – From Gateway Pundit:  "'Black Lives Matter' protesters are planning a rally on Friday in support of Usaamah Rahim, the Boston terrorist who was shot and killed in Boston this week."  Why am I not surprised?

NICE TO KNOW – From Fox:  "Fracking supporters were boosted Thursday by a new Environmental Protection Agency report finding the controversial oil-and-gas extraction process has not caused 'widespread' harm to drinking water.  The findings were contained in a draft assessment, as part of a report requested by Congress.  The report said the agency 'did not find evidence' that any process has 'led to widespread, systemic impacts on drinking water resources in the United States.'"  They'll find something else to dry to disrupt fracking.  You can be sure of that.

DRONE NEAR WHITE HOUSE – From AP:  "The White House has once again been locked down after a drone was spotted in the area.  That's according to a federal official, who wasn't authorized to comment by name and requested anonymity. The official says security was bumped up Friday afternoon but has returned to normal at the White House.  This is the second time in as many months that a drone incident has prompted a lockdown. In May, the Secret Service apprehended a man flying a small drone in a park outside the White House. And in January, a quadcopter drone piloted by an off-duty government worker landed on the White House lawn. President Barack Obama wasn't at home."  After several incidents, why is it still possible for a drone to get near the White House?
