Leftist billionaire Tom Steyer has made no secret of his desire to see President Trump impeached, and he has been putting his billions where his mouth is. His latest ad-buy via his Next Gen PAC goes beyond attacking Trump and demonizes every left-leaning, centrist, and right-leaning American who votes Republican in this country.  Given Democrats' massive, humiliating losses at every level of government, that's a lot of people. The "Mother's Day" ad warns that the GOP is turning kids into misogynist, thieving, Trump-supporting bullies who march for white supremacy.

Today is Cultural Appreciation Day here at Legal Insurrection. While some yammer on about 'cultural appropriation' (if such a thing does exist, it's certainly not bad), we've decided to share how we celebrate various cultures. A few writers and readers have shared your stories. Leslie is all over Culture Appreciation Day and I refer you to her other posts here and here.

My mom has always been very meh about Mother's Day. She always thought (and still thinks) it's a Hallmark holiday and has said more than once that if we didn't bother appreciating her throughout the year, there was no point in doing so on Mother's Day. We always wanted to make it a special day for her and bought for her all the things you get for moms on Mother's Day. She insisted she never wanted anything other than to spend time with her babies. I never completely understood until I became a Mom.

Welcome to Legal Insurection's First Annual Cultural Appreciation Day. This day was inspired by the brave response of 18-year old Keziah Daum to the social media storm she sparked by wearing a gorgeous Chinese cheongsam dress for some selfies before her prom. Daum refused to apologize after she was deluged by social justice warriors with charges of "cultural appropriation."

I am thrilled to be able to be able to share some of my "cultural appreciation" experiences with our Legal Insurrection friends. In fact, this idea came from a response I was going to make during the social justice brouhaha over 18-year old Keziah Daum's Chinese cheongsam prom dress. I, too have such a dress.

Who knew primary schools were plagued with status symbols? Or that this was even a thing? One British school has banned pencil cases and is outlawing any designer goods that might distinguish one student's property as more expensive than another's.

In The Wall Street Journal, Kimberley Strassel penned an op-ed that suggests the FBI may have placed a mole within then-GOP presidential candidate Donald Trump's campaign since the department will not reveal its top-secret source. And when did the FBI become so secretive? A former FBI agent wrote in the WSJ that in his time, Congress wouldn't ever need to request a subpoena to retrieve information from the bureau.
