I’d like to see this happen, but not a chance with this House. Maybe after the election, if the Republicans take it back.

Watergate
What Trump learned from it.
The Battle Of The Bulge
It’s now the 75th anniversary. Here’s a satire I wrote to commemorate the 60th.
The IG Report
It undercuts Nadler’s credibility on impeachment. Not that he ever had much to begin with.
It also proved something that’s been pretty obvious for years; Adam Schiff has been a serial liar from the beginning.
[Update a couple minutes later]
Schiff town hall erupts into cries of “liar” and “treason.” They’re not wrong. Unfortunately, his seat is probably safe in that district, which is why he can get away with this.
Boris Johnson’s Revolution
Thoughts from Michael Barone.
I’m encouraged that he wants to emphasize science and technology. This could create some useful Anglospheric alliances in space, particularly if he sets up a Royal Space Force.
[Update a few minutes later]
He’s going after the Beeb. That would be amazing if he could get rid of that pack of leftist hacks.
[Wednesday-morning update]
Me, Too
Voters favor firing and/or jailing government officials who targeted Trump.
“Advanced Space Technologies”
An interesting article on General Kwast (who reportedly has people read my book), but isn’t it obvious that he’s talking about things like Starship? Nothing magical or secret here.
Chute Problems
An interesting look at the delays for Commercial Crew.
Coming in on chutes is such a 20th-century concept. At some point we will land rockets just as we do airplanes. And if Elon has his way, that point will be within half a decade, at which point, Crew Dragon capsules may come back inside a Starship.
Farewell To California
Andrew Malcolm has had enough.
We’re thinking of getting out, too. I’ve loved this state since I first visited it on a family vacation over half a century ago, but the inmates are running the asylum in Sacramento.
[Update a couple minutes later]
Over one in three San Franciscans are thinking of leaving.
Regulating Outer Space
Thoughts from Laura Montgomery on the constitutionality of it.
