China
Is it in preparation to start a war?
The Captain Of That Carrier
Why he had to be relieved of duty.
What struck us as particularly off in the captain’s letter was his statement: “We are not at war.” He added that “sailors do not need to die” and that “if we do not act now, we are failing to properly take care of our most trusted asset — our sailors.” The Navy, though, doesn’t need to be instructed on the value of its own sailors. Plus, too, under our system it’s not carrier captains who decide whether we’re at war.
The most important asset is not the crew, but the ship, and the crew must be ready to be sacrificed for the mission. I wrote a book about that.
The Latest From Ilhan Omar
She seems nice.
I wonder what the appeal was to the guy whose marriage she broke up? Is she great in the sack or something?
Spain And Italy
…have been abandoned by the EU.
Between this and Brexit, I don’t think the EU will survive.
FISA Applications
Every single one that Horowitz examined was flawed.
Shut the whole thing down, and prosecute some people.
The CCP
The CCP has been lying from the beginning, and continues to, yet their media organs the NYT, WaPo, CNN et al continue to carry their water, because Orange Man Bad.
Mark Levin said on his show last night that the Soviet Union never damaged our country (and the world) the way that the CCP has. I’m not sure that’s true, if you look at the decades-long damage it did, but it certainly never killed people and destroyed wealth this quickly.

She’s been putting out an entertaining newsletter for a while. Here‘s her latest.
Europe Was Not Ready
…and it may never fully recover.
And get ready for more exits; Italians are burning the EU flag.
I think that this is probably the most significant European event since the end of the war. The project, and the conceit of globalism in general, is coming apart at the seams.

But wait! There’s more: Calls in France to “buy French.”

Goodbye, Green New Deal.
Set aside, for the moment, any reservations you might have about the coronavirus-emergency regime, and set aside your views on climate change, too, whatever they may be. Instead, ask yourself this: If Americans are this resistant to paying a large economic price to enable measures meant to prevent a public-health catastrophe in the here and now — one that threatens the lives of people they know and love — then how much less likely are they to bear not weeks or months but decades of disruption and economic dislocation and a permanently diminished standard of living in order to prevent possibly severe consequences to people in Bangladesh or Indonesia 80 or 100 years from now?
Not a prayer.

Yes, the president is not wrong: Pelosi is a sick puppy.
