I’m having a hard time thinking of an interview between two human beings I enjoyed more than tonight’s interview of the great Ian McKellen by the great Stephen Colbert. Every moment of it was a pleasure that I highly recommend… but then came the most REMARKABLE ending that you really HAVE to watch.

Her testimony is everything and it deserves to be heard, by everyone. Decide for yourself.
It’s powerful. It’s gut-wrenching. And no one should have to survive what she did.

"The fundamental weakness of Western civilisation is empathy" - Elon Musk. Yeah right. Here's a counter argument.
Obviously the National Review has always had Trump-sceptics. But when an editor is debating whether he is a psychopath or a sociopath, that's something. Ditto when he points out that Trump is "a hateful raging lunatic with all the empathy of Jeffrey Dahmer".
