A Lesson From Kari Lake
…that all Republicans should take to heart.
You will never go wrong as a Republican in attacking the leftist media. That was one of Trump’s endearing traits.
Being Dragged Into The 21st Century
The Pentagon is still too reluctant to rely on commercial space services.
The Power Habit
Can politicians quit it?
When the history of the Covid-19 pandemic is written, the names of many drugs — Paxlovid, fluvoxamine, sotrovimab — will be mentioned. But the account will be incomplete if the distorting effect of the most powerful and addictive drug of all, political power, is omitted. The public, out of fear, gave politicians enormous power. What we’re about to see, the world over, is whether they can take it back.
We are in dangerous times.
Just Can The Guy
This wouldn’t be happening if Joe Biden was alive.
Covid-Derangement Syndrome

Physical Child Abuse
Adams’s gag-inducing new policy of swapping out food for colon-blow roughage and mashed yeast is a declaration of food war. As if we didn’t have enough wars going on— the woke wars, the COVID wars, the language wars and the info wars and the streaming wars. The hell with peas, give peace a chance.
It’s also a religious war: Eric (like Bill Clinton, another member of the militant vegan brigades) used to be fat, got thin, and is now an evangelist for the cause. Good for you, Eric! But don’t force your cauliflower patties and cheese-less tacos on the kids. It’s been a horrible two years for them: haven’t they suffered enough?
Or is this just a back door way of ensuring they don’t take their masks off even at lunch, because no one wants to eat yam stew?
I wonder how many New Yorkers are fine with this? Or if it will result in more emigration to Florida?
Vitamin D
The latest evidence of its efficacy against covid.
And yet we’ve never heard a mention of this from Fauci and the CDC.
Aerojet
An interesting report on the internecine battle within the company in the wake of the FTC disallowing the acquisition by Lockmart. I found this amusing:
Aerojet has traditionally structured itself as an engineering company with high fixed costs and low margins, Thompson said. But if private equity buys the company, it will want to see more robust financial returns, which could come at the cost of innovation.
“This really comes down to whether the financial interests or the engineering interests within Aerojet prevail in the struggle,” he said. “My heart is with the engineering interests. My brain, which knows the history of these types of struggles, assumes the financial interests will ultimately prevail.”
Yes, for me, the first word that comes to mind when I hear the word “Aerojet” is “innovation.” Not.
