Will you stop


obsessing over
Trump insults?
It’s getting harder by the

chief complaint isn’t the leftish
slant. It’s the news channel’s
obsession with the latest idiocy
to emerge from the Trumpian

news is depressing.
Of greater concern is their focus on the insignificant,
letting it crowd out coverage of the administration’s toxic
policies. The big story is exploding deficits. Pumping out
trillion-dollar deficits in the middle of a strong economy
is fiscal insanity.
The reckless tax cuts are the main driver. Senate Ma-
jority Leader Mitch McConnell is already weaponizing
the deficit to force cuts in Medicare and Social Security.
Republican talk of new middle-class tax cuts is
pre-election baloney. No details — not on the cuts them-
selves, not on paying for them (ha-ha-ha). Anyhow, more
tax cuts would blow the deficit still higher, sharpening
the dagger pointed at cherished middle-class programs. RACE IN AMERICA

Woman’s tip
prevents potential
Kentucky school
attack
The Associated Press

LOUISVILLE, Ky. — A
New Jersey woman credited
with helping foil a potential
school attack in Kentucky
said she was “protecting my
babies” when she followed
her gut and tipped off police
about harassing Facebook
messages that police say are
linked to the suspect.
The tip from the woman,
Koeberle Bull, led Kentucky
authorities to Dylan Jarrell,
who possessed a firearm,
more than 200 rounds of am-
munition, a bulletproof vest,
a 100-round high-capacity
magazine and a “detailed
plan of attack,” Kentucky
State Police said last week.
The head of state police said
he believed lives were saved
when investigators interced-
ed as Jarrell was leaving his
driveway last Thursday.
“I must say I didn’t see
this coming but thank God I
went with my gut,” Bull said
in a Facebook post last week.
In an email interview
with The Associated Press
on Tuesday, Bull said she
had no idea her decision to
reach out to police would
have ramifications far be-
yond her family.
“I was just protecting my
babies,” she said, noting that
the racially offensive Face-
book comments linked to
Jarrell had been aimed at
her three children, who are
