SHORT TAKES ON THE DRIFTING WRECKAGE – AT 11:53 P.M. ET: 

DEMS BUILD A FENCE! – FROM BREITBART:  Democrats are eager to build a wall around their Philadelphia presidential convention, but they’re refusing to preserve Americans’ legal walls against low-skill migration from low-wage countries, Sen. Jeff Sessions said today.  “It’s interesting that the Democratic National Committee will have a wall around their convention to keep unapproved people out while at the same time, their presumptive nominee, Hillary Clinton, pushes for open borders policies that are even more radical than President Obama’s,” Sessions said in Friday statement.   The Dems are completely blind to the concept of hypocrisy.  Doesn't bother them a bit.

BRITAIN BYE-BYE? – FROM BRITAIN'S INDEPENDENT:   The campaign to take Britain out of the EU has opened up a remarkable 10-point lead over the Remain camp, according to an exclusive poll for The Independent.  The survey of 2,000 people by ORB found that 55 per cent believe the UK should leave the EU (up four points since our last poll in April), while 45 per cent want it to remain (down four points). These figures are weighted to take account of people’s likelihood to vote. It is by far the biggest lead the Leave camp has enjoyed since ORB began polling the EU issue for The Independent a year ago, when it was Remain who enjoyed a 10-point lead. Now the tables have turned.  The referendum is June 23rd, 13 days from now.  If the Brits decide to exit, I want to be there to see the faces of the EU bureaucrats.  I'm sure counseling services will be available.

THIS IS TERRIFIC – FROM LONDON'S TELEGRAPH:   Multiple sclerosis patients who were severely disabled are walking, working and even downhill skiing again following a breakthrough therapy which completely destroys, then rebuilds, the immune system.  The trial, which is the first in the world to show complete long-term remission from the debilitating disease has been hailed by experts as ‘exciting’ ‘unprecedented,’ and ‘close to curative.’  Although it is unclear what causes MS it is thought that the immune system attacks the protective coating which surrounds nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord leading to inflammation, pain, disability and in severe cases, early death.  Always happy to bring good news amidst the gloom.  There is dazzling research going on.
