It’s too bad that the Trump administration doesn’t take it as seriously as it does judicial appointments. With the wrong people on it, it can be a very damaging institution.
California
Has it been here (at least in the Bay Area) a lot longer than we thought? I think it’s quite plausible that it was here in December, which in a sense is good news, because it probably means we already have a lot more herd immunity than we thought, and the fatality rate is much lower than earlier fears.
Crossfire Hurricane
It’s official: Every aspect of it was shady.
It was a corrupt criminal conspiracy against first a presidential candidate of the opposition party and then a president. And there should be little doubt that the Obama White House was fully aware of it. One of the reasons that a lot of this is coming out now (and the State Department refused to ask for Executive Privilege to prevent Hillary from being deposed) is that Grenell is finally starting to clean house (which was why the Left went nuts when Trump appointed him) in preparation for Ratcliffe to take over as DNI.
But will there be indictments this time around? I hope that history is not prelude. It’s up to Barr now.
Optimism
We are 100 times safer now than in early March. Hope this is right.
The Handshake
A eulogy.
I for one would not miss it. It has caused countless hours of lost productivity, and lives. We should have abandoned it decades ago.
Stirling Moss
We’ve lost a great of auto racing. That’s a name from my youth that I’d forgotten.
On A Lighter Note
Roman authorities investigate Christ for violating stay-in-tomb order.
Oligarchy
…and pestilence.
This is why the coming election is so important.
Happy Easter
…to all of my Christian readers.
