This is not great news. I don’t understand why Ross hasn’t gone to Congress, but I also don’t understand how he thought he was going to get the funding without doing so.
Impeach Joe Biden
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 Far Side
It may be coming back. I always wondered by Larson quit doing it, but it sounds like maybe he’s recharged his batteries.
Ankylosing Spondylitis
Wow. This guy had to have his spine broken in four places to be able to straighten up. Mars researcher Tanya Harrison suffers from this disease (and I’m always impressed by her accomplishments despite it). I hope they can come up with a cure eventually, if not sooner.
116 Years
That’s how long it’s been since the first powered controlled flight at Kitty Hawk. On the hundredth anniversary, I wrote three separate essays. One at Fox News, one at National Review, and one at TechCentralStation. Unfortunately, the latter has succumbed to link rot.

Reader Sam Dinkin found it on the Wayback Machine.
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.
