Thursday Links

Today is what you could call the "real" Columbus Day, since it was on October 12, 1492 that Columbus and his crew landed on an island that is now part of the Bahamas.  Of course, we crazy Yanks had to move our observance of this historical event, along with several other holidays, to the nearest convenient Monday.  Here's a bit of what's going on today:

From The Local DE, a city in northern Germany says, "no more refugees."

From the Express, French politician Marine Le Pen and her party shelve their plans to leave the E.U.

From Russia Today, at a pro-unity march in Barcelona, a riot breaks out.

From Breitbart London, the Czech president wants Europe to have a Second Amendment.

From Vanity Fair, here are 30 of Harvey Weinstein's accusers.

From CNN, Jane Fonda regrets staying silent about Weinstein.  (Like she regretted aiding the North Vietnamese communists?  Riiiiiight!)

From FrontpageMag, the hypocrisy of Hillary Clinton.  (As I pointed out yesterday, hypocrisy is to be expected of any politician.)

From Breitbart's Big Hollywood, Ben Affleck has been accused of sexual misconduct by two women.

From the Washington Examiner, President Trump signs an EO that would make dealing with Obamacare slightly easier for some people.  (via LifeNews)

From National Review, President Trump and Republicans do not want to abolish birth control.

From Townhall, Trump nominates Kirstjen Nielsen to be the new DHS Secretary.

From the New York Post, there's a strange hole in the Antarctic ice cap.

From Fox News, Greek police rescue 54 migrants who had been "squashed into a van".

From The Old Continent, in Germany, a "North-African" man stabs a security guard.
