Former Sen. Alan Simpson (R-WY) once said that, "Those who travel the high road of humility will not be troubled by heavy traffic."

2 Russian Hacks: 10 Times Coverage for the One Media Use to Bash Trump

Atlantic Magazine: SNL's Parody Hillary Could be 'Voice of Advocacy'
Although we still hear her whining about the election results behind the scenes, Hillary Clinton has mostly stayed out of the public limelight since her big loss.

NYT Fosters Race Fears, as Public Editor Chides ‘Blinding Whiteness'
Continuing “Sore Loser Sunday” in the New York Times, the Sunday Review fans fears of Trump in its selection of outside essays, often with a racial angle.
