Less than 24 hours after Alex Jones theorized that a “weather weapon” could have been used to cause the devastating Oklahoma tornado, conservative gossip Matt Drudge returned to his pattern of promoting the conspiracy theorist. On May 21, Jones  told  a caller that the government has the ability to “create and steer groups of tornadoes” and that if people spotted helicopters and small aircraft “in and around the clouds, spraying and doing things” in Oklahoma, it could be evidence that a “weather weapon” was used.

The Wall Street Journal opinion page is turning into the go-to source for documenting President Obama’s supernatural influence over the thoughts and actions of IRS employees. Reagan DOJ veterans David Rivkin and Lee Casey wrote a May 21 Journal op-ed  arguing that fault for the IRS’s inappropriate targeting of conservative non-profit applicants lies with the president. “The Obama administration made clear its deep dislike of  Citizens United  and of the various new conservative groups spawned by the ‘tea party’ movement,” they wrote, and “the IRS has always been well-attuned to even subtle guidance from the White House.” That argument was borrowed from Kimberley Strassel’s May 17 Journal column: “All [Obama] needed to do was exactly what he did do, in full view, for three years: Publicly suggest that conservative political groups were engaged in nefarious deeds.” This notion of bureaucrat whispering is, in isolation, a pretty big stretch
