It’s long past time that someone spoke truth to mendacity and hypocrisy.

Venezuela
Its murder rate is worse than a war zone.
As Stephen Green says, socialism is war, against the actual people.
I Pulled At The Thread Of My Ideology
“…and it all unraveled before me.”
The Leftists
Thoughts from Wretchard on their reactionary attempts to return to the past.
The Anniversary
It’s hard to believe that it’s been seventeen years. Glenn Reynolds has some links and thoughts. Yes, Barack Obama was feckless, but part of the reason we got him was due to the fecklessness of George Bush, and the mismanagement of Iraq. I thought at the time the administration had a strategic plan for the Middle East, but I was wrong.

The Need For A Space Force
It’s a 19th-century solution for a 21st-century problem. Most of the takes on this have been idiotic, but this is a good one. I’d note though, per the end, it’s not a choice between a Space Corps/Force or Space Guard. We need both.
When A Foreign Power Meddled In A Election
Like me, Byron York remembers the 90s, the Clinton administration, and the Chinese government. But that was different because shut up.
Another Arkancide?

Space Force
That was then, this is now:
Air Force Secretary Heather Wilson asserted on Wednesday that the service is not pushing back on President Trump’s idea to create a Space Force. She offered no new details on how the process of forming a new service might unfold but insisted that this “has to be done the right way.”
I’m old enough to remember when she opposed Space Corps, let alone Space Force.
And are people really talking (again) about a Department of Space? Please, no.
Iran In Iraq
I could never understand why the Bush administration let Iran get away with so much. They were waging war on us (and have been since 1979), and the administration did essentially nothing. And then Obama came along and bent us over for them and didn’t even ask for lube. Thanks, Valerie!
