Coal severance collections for the state rose from $191 million in FY 2016 to $211 million in FY 2017. This fiscal year should be even better. Add in the resurgent natural gas industry and the state’s budget challenges become more manage- able. More importantly, the increased demand for coal means more miners are getting paychecks. Additionally they can again feel proud of their work and have some optimism about the future rather than serving as props for the greens who assuage their conscience with a “hate-the-coal-but-love-the-miner” doctrine. Coal will never return to its once dominant energy position in this country, but no one expects that. The reasonable argument has always been to tamp down the overzealous anti-carbon crowd and let coal, gas, renewables and other sources compete on a level play- ing field to meet the country’s critical energy needs. As the Wall Street Journal opined, “The bigger story is that there’s still demand for U.S. coal if regulators allow the energy markets to work.” With apologies to Mark Twain, rumors of coal’s demise have been greatly exaggerated. a past criminal record that showed up when he applied for a green card. He had married, had children and was no longer in trouble. Nevertheless, he was flown to Seoul, South Korea, left with no money, contacts or language skills. Phillip Clay was adopted at 8, and, 29 years later, in 2012, he was deported to South Korea, his birth country, because of mental health, drug addiction and legal problems. He did not know anyone there and did not speak any Korean. In May of this year he commit- ted suicide. Mr. Clay was obviously a troubled person, but he was an American, except for the fact that his adoptive parents did not make sure his citizenship papers were in order. It is estimated that Americans have adopted over 100,000 South Korean children in the past half-century. Americans have also adopted many children from China, Ethiopia, India, Ukraine and Vietnam. Romania and Russia, once popular adoption sites, changed adoption requirements and no lon- ger permit American adoptions. It is one thing to choose to immigrate here, but it is totally differ- ent to be adopted as a child and raised as an American.

In her 1922 book “The Pivot of Civilization,” Sanger refers to blacks, immigrants and indigents as “human weeds, reckless breed- ers, and ‘spawning ... human beings who never should have been born.’” Sanger believed “The most merciful thing that a large family does to one of its infant members is to kill it.” Since its founding, Planned Parenthood, an organization which has the support of most liberals, has become the largest abortion provider in the U.S. Sanger, officially endorsed by the American Eugenic Society in 1932, was also recognized by former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton at a 2009 Planned Parenthood function. “The 20th-century reproductive rights movement, really embod- ied in the life and leadership of Margaret Sanger, was one of the most transformational in the entire history of the human race,” Clinton stated upon receiving an award from the organization Sanger founded. Clinton extraordinarily acknowledged she was in “awe” of Sanger. Others stand in “awe” of creation. Do we really want life to be so arbitrary?

In large part, he rode his mutual enmity with the media to the White House. It remains a lifeline. Most commentators saw Trump angrily say- ing indefensible things about Charlottesville at the news conference last week; most Republicans saw him gamely standing his ground in front a group of braying reporters. At his rally in Phoenix, Trump upped the rhetorical ante and used the media’s lack of credibility to try to undermine the critique of his Charlottesville remarks. It helps him that the press is, indeed, worse than ever before. As the media environment has fractured, organizations feel less obliga- tion to try to cultivate a broader audience. And as politics becomes more culturally charged, the divide between the heartland and the coasts where the media lives and works becomes important. Then there’s the reaction to Trump himself. Since he is genuinely outrageous, especially to coastal sensibilities, the media feels justi- fied in its unremittingly harsh coverage. The war with Trump also serves the twin goals of self-referen- tiality and ratings. CNN at times appears to be a network devoted to covering things that the president says about the network. Prior to Trump’s rally in Phoenix, CNN relentlessly promoted the event. Then it broadcast the whole thing and devoted the rest of the night to commentators pronouncing themselves outraged and dismayed. At the end of the day, what had really happened? Nothing much, but at least something entertaining had filled the air. Trump might well have been hate-watching much of it, pleased somewhere beneath his anger and disgust that he had, once again, proved to have the right enemy.
