…has reached Biblical levels.
To be fair, it’s well-earned hatred.

I haven’t linked him in a while, but he has a nice remembrance of PJ, and some tart commentary on the mask Nazis.
Good NASA Versus Bad NASA
I’m supposedly quoted in this piece (or at least I gave Jim some suggestions), but unfortunately, it’s behind a paywall.

Clinton’s Crimes
…were worse than we thought.
And some of us thought they were pretty bad. This is vastly worse than Watergate, which is why the media is trying to ignore it.

The Lie That Was Covid
Bob Zimmerman lays it out:
Since day one of the epidemic practically every policy decision by government and the largely Democratic academic community has been based on lies. And those lies caused the initial response to COVID to be wrong and misguided. It was panicked, thoughtless, based on very flawed models rather than the actual data, and did far more harm than good. The later and continuing mandates requiring the COVID shots and masks to keep one’s job, to fly on airplanes, to cross borders, to even go to school or attend public events, are even more insane, based not on the now long-known facts but on lies and fear and the urge by those in power to wield that power corruptly.
It is long past time for everyone to stop buying into these lies.
Indeed.

[Friday-morning update]
Here is Eric Berger’s report.
What I heard last night that was new to me (maybe he’s said this before) was that it was less than a million per flight on the margin, and it could deliver 150 tons to LEO (I had thought the number was a hundred tons). That’s a fifty percent increase, and a one-third reduction in cost per pound.
