 Growing up in eastern South Dakota means one thing when it comes to professional sports - we usually follow the Minnesota teams. This is not always the case (I'm actually a Denver Broncos fan) but you will see a lot of purple and gold during the football season and the Minnesota Twins are our adopted baseball franchise. I am pretty sure that the productivity in this state and in Minnesota is not going to be very high this week.

As Elizabeth Olson reports in The New York Times , the University of Minnesota has taken a multi-dimensional approach for crisis communications. The changing world of academia has become the setting for ongoing crisis. The flashpoints range from the cost of tuition to career preparation and actual job placement. In the law school niche, the crisis has taken the shape of keeping seats filled without engaging in unethical or even illegal actions.

The influential, conservative Drudge Report is linking the attacks in New York, New Jersey, and Minnesota. Our response should be fear, right. That could be the platform for Donald Trump to ride in to the rescue. He could announce a really-get-tough-with-terrorism agenda. Meanwhile, the Drudge Report could position and package Hillary Clinton's responses to domestic terrorism, from now until election day, as too-little/too-late.

The explosions in New York and New Jersey, plus the stabbing in Minnesota, have unhinged any sense of state, national, and personal safety in this nation. No slouch when it comes to clickbait, conservative Drudge Report has shifted to ISIS. That's a 180-degree detour from Sick-Hillary and Declining-Hillary-Polls. The more generic subject of domestic terrorism is on the minds of voters.
