My long awaited (at least by me) study for the Reason Foundation is now online.
[Friday-morning update]
The best word to describe NASA’s lunar program is “delusional.”
[Bumped]
[Update Saturday morning]
A nice summary of the policy paper.

The Classified Appendix To The Durham Report
Margot Cleveland has gone through it, so you don’t have to:
🚨🚨🚨BREAKING Durham appendix released. 1/

[Update a couple minutes later]
🚨SMOKING GUN: The declassified Durham Annex confirms Hillary Clinton personally approved the plan to frame Trump with Russian hacking US election claims — to “distract from her missing emails” and “demonize Trump.”

[Update a while later]
This is the smoking gun evidence inside Durham annex. If it is authenticated by further investigation it means liberal mega donor George Soros’ team knew the whole Clinton plan for Russiagate hoax four days before FBI opened up probe. And so did Obama, Brennan, and Comey. pic.twitter.com/eN7gJ9h8Ri

Militant Islam
How it created the constitutional monarchy in England.
It’s ironic that now England has invited the Muslims in to take it over.
“Journalists” Covering The Middle East
…are in league with terrorists.
There’s nothing new about this.
The Climate Movement
The bad science and bad policy at the heart of it.
[Afternoon update]
Climate science is baaaaack.
This is one of the biggest (and most needed) regulatory rollbacks in history.
More from Ed Morrissey and Stephen Green.
Indicting Barack?
How it might be done.
One can dream.
After what Bongino said recently, I wonder if there is any possibility of getting at the truth of what happened during the Clinton administration, including the Foster “suicide,” even if no one is indicted?
[Afternoon update]
Definitely: Gina Haspel should be investigated for covering up the Russia-collusion hoax.
[Tuesday-morning update]
The Russia-collusion hoax was worse than you think.
IDK, I think it was pretty bad. On the other hand, I continue to think it hyperbolic to call it “treasonous.” Seditious, yes, but not that.
Happy Moon Day
I’ll be on The Space Show at noon PDT to talk about the 56th anniversary.
Starliner
A comprehensive rundown on its future, and that of Commercial Crew in general.
Two Billion Dollars?
Why would the National Space Council need that much money? What would they spend it on?
The NASA Budget Battle
Bob Zimmerman has the latest. Space policy will continue to be a mess until someone with vision for it is put into place (and probably even then). It’s not at all clear that Duffy knows which end the fire comes out of.
