May have saved no lives, and cost many.
It’s appearing more and more to me that that was the case. It was perhaps the biggest blunder in human history.

A long but interesting article on how he’s attempting to transform society in an actual useful direction.
Defunding The Police
Is it libertarian?
Why no, no it’s not. As he points out, there are a number of things we could do to solve the problem that are libertarian, but that isn’t one of them.

Replacing the police department with a “transformative new model.”
Good luck with that.

Defunding the police would be a disaster for black people in particular.
Why yes, yes it would.

Climate Versus Covid Models
Cloudy with a chance of politics.

Rosenstein
I watched some of the testimony this morning. Basically, he played dumb bureaucrat who got played by the FBI. In so doing, he threw McCabe under the bus. He’ll be a key witness at trial. The deer-in-the-headlights look as Ted Cruz excoriated him was amusing.
I wish that I was surprised that the Democrats attempted to downplay what happened. They used to pretend to care about the use of foreign-surveillance techniques to spy on Americans. I guess Orange Man Bad covers all sins.
