Was this the last straw?
There doesn’t ever seem to be a last straw with these swamp creatures. And Congresspeople can’t be impeached, but they can be expelled. If the Republicans retake the House, that should be one of their first orders of business.
Yes, the maleducational system, from K through grad school, is the biggest danger to the Republic. It’s been almost forty years since that report that said that if a foreign nation had imposed it on us, it would be considered an act of war. It’s only gotten worse.
Carrie Lam has declared an emergency in Hong Kong, with all that implies. She was doubtless under a great deal of pressure from Beijing.

Michael Yon is reporting on the ground.
…is nothing but rebranded paganism.
Yup.
Thoughts on the elites against western civilization who have ultimately given us a Donald Trump as our last hope.
…that Democrats would rather you forget.
But that was different because shut up.

Rod Rosenstein, exposed.
I’m old enough to remember when he was a “Republican,” and a “straight shooter.”
How it “woke” America.
I’ve been at a conference for the past few days, sans computer, so light posting. Anyway, I’m flying back from DC tomorrow to LA, with a non-stop flight scheduled for 5:30 PM, because I’d thought I’d have some meetings set up tomorrow, but it turns out that I have no reason to stick around, so I’d like to get out earlier.
So there’s a 7:20 AM flight, which I’ve put myself on standby for. But if I miss it, despite the fact that there are many routes from DCA to LAX all day, I won’t be able to go standby on them, because they aren’t non-stops. If I want to take a different route to LA, I have to pay the difference in ticket price plus a change fee (which is up to a couple hundred bucks).
My question is, what is the thinking behind this policy? An airline seat is a depreciating asset, and to me it would make sense to free to up later in the day by offering someone an earlier ticket, if there’s room on the flight. Why in the world would you care if they flew on the exact route that their original ticket was for, as long as you freed up the seat and didn’t have to bump anyone else?
So, since I’m not going to pay the penalty for changing route, if I miss the flight, I have to wait for the next one (which means I’ll leave my stuff somewhere and do something in town, and come back for my scheduled flight).
Over climate. At the University of Washington.
This should be a big story, or they won’t stop. Presumably, that department head would claim to be a climate scientist, but he’s not any kind of scientist.
It’s a personal one. I’m accepted to give a brief talk on space property rights at the IAC in three weeks. But media can’t give talks, and registration will be about $1500. Not sure I can justify that.
