Donald Trump-- Enemy Of The People
In a column published by *The Guardian* this morning, Robert Reich noted that In fighting all oversight, Trump has made his most dictatorial move. He worries that Trump has gone off the deep end to make sure there would be "no congressional oversight of this administration: no questioning officials who played a role in putting a citizenship question on the 2020 census. No questioning a former White House counsel about the Mueller report. No questioning a Trump adviser about immigration policy. No questioning a former White House security director about issuances of security clea... more »
Fake climate science and scientists by Paul Driessen
*Alarmists game the system to enrich and empower themselves, and hurt everyone else* The multi-colored placard in front of a $2-million home in North Center Chicago proudly proclaimed, “In this house we believe: No human is illegal” – and “Science is real” (plus a few other liberal mantras). I knew right away where the owners stood on climate change, and other hot-button political issues. They would likely tolerate no dissension or debate on “settled” climate science or any of the other topics. But they have it exactly backward on the science issue. Real science is not belief – or... more »

Over 40 red seats flipped. I spent much of 2018 expelling why the coming wave was not a blue wave at all, but an anti-Trump wave, at best an anti-red wave. But "blue wave" is far too positive to a description. As a party, the Democrats still weren't offering anything to voters-... more »

The Problem with Russia's New Armata Tank
*Task and Purpose* *Security, * Numbers. *Along with the Armata production problems, the Su-57 5th generation stealth fighter has also been shelved for the time being due to budgetary constraints.* When Russia first unveiled the T-14 Armata tank to the public in 2015, western militaries took note of next-generation juggernaut’s futuristic and flexible design, which was built to replace several armored ground units. But unfortunately for the Russian armed forces, a sluggish economy hit by sanctions and massive corruption doesn’t appear to be able to produce the revolutionary ta... more »
An F-22 or F-35 Is Doomed If This Fails
*TNI Staff* *Security, * The "skin". *In fact, in the case of the F-22, the Air Force is very careful about knowing exactly how well the jets’ coating are performing and where exactly they can send the Raptors as a result.* While pilots of advanced fifth-generation fighters like the Lockheed Martin F-22 Raptor or the F-35 Joint Strike Fighter often claim the spotlight, it is the ground crews who maintain those jets’ pristine surfaces that are often the real heroes. Without proper maintenance of their skin, the signature of those advance stealth jets degrade over time—rendering t... more »

Biden's Better Than Trump-- But Biden's The Worst Democrat Running Against Trump
I recall-- vividly-- Trump's flat-out lies about not accepting SuperPAC money. While he was doing everything he could to scrounge it up, he was making fun of Jeb Bush, Ted Cruz, Hillary Clinton and all the other 2016 presidential candidates for being puppets of the Big Money donors. He was too, of course, but he swore up and down he was self-financing his campaign. He lied from day one; and he never stopped lying. He still hasn't. You noticed that right? The other day, Status Quo Joe Biden, who would cut off a limb to get Obama's endorsement might have thought he was fooling some... more »

"A Canticle for Liebowitz" and the Supreme Court
Warren Miller's 1959 science fiction novel *A Canticle for Liebowitz* describes a world taken over by the forces of irrationality. A small group of monks retreat to their abbey with a collection of books saved by Isaac Liebowitz, the last repository of rationalism. The monks study the books for centuries and sporadically re-enter the world in an always-futile hope to re-establish a well-functioning social order guided by science and reason. Today many liberals who factor the Supreme Court into their political calculations are a lot like the"Order of Liebowitz" in the novel. They too... more »
Why Critics of Court-Packing Proposals Aren't Watching the Whole Board of Politics
David Super's post on Court-packing properly sees Court-packing proposals in a larger political context. Rather than assuming that the proposals would be implemented in a politics-free world, he knows that they can succeed only if Democrats control the Presidency and both houses of Congress, and that Republican retaliation could occur only after Republicans regained control of all three (although that point gets a bit blurred because of his attention to the Senate -- Court-packing will stick as long as Democrats control one of the three elected branches and, in particular, even if t... more »
"Preserving" the Repubic of Statutes
David Super ends his post, "The legislative filibuster is crucial in preserving" the republic of statutes. The language of preservation is the language of the status quo. The implicit argument is this: Suppose we make it easier for progressive majorities to enact new statutes. Doing so will make it easier for conservative majorities -- when they exist -- to repeal existing statutes. And we have more to fear from the repeal of existing statutes than we have to gain from enacting new ones. This might not be the best of all possible worlds, but we've reached a state of affairs that's g... more »
