…Should he get a third term?
Doug Cooke’s Op-Ed
The Real China Threat
It is a clash of values, and ours may not win out.
My IAC Paper
I presented it on Friday. Joanne Gabrynowicz complained about it during questions, so I’ll take that as a win.
Unfortunately, though I did a final polish on it this weekend, it was apparently too late to upload it for the final proceedings, but here it is.
The WaPo
No, it’s not possible to mock it enough.
“Mao Zedong, bold architect of Chinese society, reducing troubling population problems, dies at age 82.”

Washington Post to run all headlines by an in-house editor from ISIS.
Indoctrination
Teachers’ union teaches teachers how to make students woke.
SARGE
Exos Aerospace had a bad day.
Tulsi Gabbard
From my neighbor (really — he lives a few blocks away from me): Conservatives have taken to her (despite her leftism), because unlike most of the other Democrats, she doesn’t act like she hates our guts.

Don’t know how I missed titling the post, but it’s fixed.
An Argument Too Far
I don’t necessarily agree that the 737-MAX fiasco was a result of climate hysteria. Yes, the new design reduced emissions, but it did that by reducing fuel consumption, which is intrinsically a desirable goal for airlines. I’m sure that Boeing wanted to claim that it was lower emissions, for PR purposes, but fuel efficiency has always been a driver of new-aircraft design.
BTW, got home from DC yesterday morning. I had quite a week at IAC, but posting may return to the (subdued) normal this week.
The Brexit Knot
A primer on how we got here.
