The pandemic revealed how broken it is.
All these leftist institutions–government schools, academia, Hollywood, the media, the Democrat-run cities–should be thoroughly kicked while they’re down, and keep them down.

NASA’s Lunar Surprise
They’ve selected SpaceX for the lunar lander. Eddie Bernice Johnson is not happy.
I think this is a message to Congress that if they want to increase the amount of money NASA has to waste on Artemis, they’re going to have to increase the budget.

Here is the source-selection report.
I haven’t read it yet, but I wonder if the fact that SpaceX can takeoff and land with minimal blasting of regolith, with its engines so high on the vehicle, was a significant factor?
[Update a few minutes later]
Glancing through it, ouch. Dynetics Technical Rating was “Marginal.” For the highest bid…
Hunter Biden
A clear majority, including Democrats, want to see him properly investigated.
The New Deputy Administrator
Great pick, far better than Nelson (though that’s a low bar). She should have no trouble being confirmed.
How To Start A War
If the American people really elected Joe Biden in November, it’s increasingly clear that they made a terrible choice.
Big Business
Why it loves Black Lives Matter, and woke politics in general:
Woke politics has also been useful for firms hiding all kinds of unsavoury practices. Many firms will proclaim allegiance to BLM one day, while lobbying against curbs on forced labour the next, for instance. Indeed, whether you take the Marxist view, that all firms in a capitalist system exploit labour anyway, or the Adam Smith view, that sellers in a marketplace act out of self-interest rather than kindness, it is surely hard to take any company’s proclamations of righteousness too seriously.
This reminds me of how “feminist” men use their wokeism to attempt to insulate themselves from their abuse of women, like when Harvey Weinstein went to war with the NRA to deflect from his predatory behavior toward starlets.

Big Tech, Big Law, And Big Woke are banding together for a political realignment.
The Space Settlement Act
A call for Bill Nelson to dust it off.
Space settlement was an implicit goal of the Trump space agenda. We’ll see if Biden continues that.
Diversity Training
How it widens the gulf between the races.
I’m borrowing Sarah Hoyt’s shocked face, even though I know it’s been getting quite a workout.
No, Dr. Fauci
We are not “ruled by the science.”
I get very tired of people who clearly wouldn’t know what science is if it planted a boot up their fundament talking about how they “follow” it.
This Is CNN
A staffer admits that the network was a propagandist to get rid of Trump.
As though that wasn’t obvious.
