This evening I joined Steve Malzberg on Newsmax TV to talk over Hillary's server, Trump's surging, and the strange state of play in both the Democrat and Republican races. Click below to watch:

~I'll be starting the week back behind the Golden EIB Microphone, guest-hosting for Rush on America's Number One radio show. Hope you can tune in Monday and Tuesday starting at 12 noon Eastern/9am Pacific for a rollicking three hours.

~Re the book Steve was kind enough to mention, it's called "A Disgrace to the Profession", and I put it together because I'm in a big free-speech case over a bit of cartoon climatology that has had a disastrous impact on science and public policy. You can get a personally autographed copy of the book exclusively from the SteynOnline bookstore.

Over at The Conservative Review, Art McGrath puts the new book in the context of my previous free-speech battles:

Perhaps the most famous example was when the tribunal of the Canadian Human Rights Commission (HRC) filed "charges" against Steyn and Maclean's magazine for publishing an article that some Muslims found offensive. The HRC and the offended Muslims tried to put a lifetime ban on Steyn publishing anything else in Canada ever again. Steyn and Maclean's magazine fought back not just in front of the pseudo-court but in the court of public opinion. When they were done, not only had the case been thrown out, but Section 13 – the law which gave the HRC authority over free speech – was soon after repealed by Parliament.

I'm not sure we'll get that big a pay-off this time, but you never know, do you? Mr McGrath says of my new book:

It seems an odd way to fight a legal battle but the real danger from a court case like this is not the case itself but the climate of intimidation it creates. If a person is afraid to speak out for fear of ending up in court then the opponents of free speech have won. As one scientist quoted in the book, Professor Ivar Giaever, says, "Global warming has become a new religion-because you can't discuss it, and that's not right."

And, unlike Michael Mann, who still falsely promotes himself as a Nobel Prize winner (although the Nobel Institute has told him to cut it out), Professor Giaever is a genuine Nobel Laureate in a real discipline - winner of the Nobel Prize in Physics.

~As for my book, personally autographed copies of "A Disgrace to the Profession" are available right now at the SteynOnline bookstore, and I'm signing them as fast as I can. Alternatively, you can pre-order it from Amazon in print and Kindle. Profits go toward my end of that upcoming DC trial - and Josh's cartoons are worth the price all by themselves.
