More Expensive Milk Won't Help Farmers Enough - Culture Has Changed

Harvard violates the law by discriminating against Asian Americans. If unbiased standards were followed their Asian American incoming class would be about 43% instead of 19%.

Brazilian immigrant attacks man in MAGA hat in Mexican restaurant
President Donald Trump is not a racist, sexist, homophobic xenophobe. That’s the media’s narrative. He’s protecting our borders, and not ignoring lines in the sand that his predecessor did. But we have a lot of strung out, on the edge, crazy people in this country. A Brazilian immigrant attacked a man in a Mexican restaurant who was wearing a MAGA hat and after the police were called, she tried it again. Admitting she’d had a little to drink, she claimed she was the victim. https://www.theblaze.com/news/woman-assaults-man-maga-hat?
A recent Republican has been surprised
Heard a black woman, about 60, on the radio this morning. She said no one better give her flak about wearing her MAGA hat. She said Trump was the first Republican she'd ever voted for because the Democrats had made so many promises they couldn’t or wouldn’t keep. She was just furious and disgusted with the Republicans in Congress. I know, I know. When I changed parties in 2000 I just could not believe the spaghetti spines among the Republican "leaders." Things haven't changed much. Trump stirred a hornets' nest in both parties by shaking up the Washington DC games, but Republicans... more »

How Much Will It Cost to Address Climate Change? Pennies Compared to the Alternative
*Economic growth and global warming, Figure 1 from a paper studying "Global nonlinear effect of temperature on economic production" (link below).

The Wall: Thirty Years Ago European Walls Were Destroyed, but Others Are Being Built
Global Issues News Headlines - 12 hours ago
STOCKHOLM / ROME, Feb 25 (IPS) - On January 25, 2017, the Trump administration signed *Executive Order 13767*, instructing the Government to begin new constructions and replacements of walls between the US and Mexico. From December 22, 2018 to January 25, 2019, the federal government was partially shut down due to President Trump's declared intention to veto any spending bill that did not include $5 billion in funding for a border wall. It was with good reason the Congress withheld such an enormous sum of money. As the European experience indicates, building walls between countrie... more »

Security In Iraq Feb 15-21, 2019
(Shafaaq News) There was a large escalation of Islamic State activity in Iraq during the third week of February. The number of security incidents almost doubled from the previous week. That was due to increases in Anbar and Ninewa. There was also a large number of casualties, but that was due to two mass graves being discovered of IS victims in Ninewa. There were 40 incidents reported in Iraq from February 15-21. The week before there was just 24. This was the highest total since the third week of October 2018. Attacks always go up and down in Iraq, but during the winter the milit...more »

Why Peace With North Korea Makes Sense Even Without Disarmament
*Henri Féron* *Security, Asia* [image: Reuters] There is no convincing justification for the continued risk of nuclear war. Rumors abound that President Donald Trump will soon declare the end of the war with North Korea. This is generally framed as a means to encourage the country to give up its nuclear weapons program. It is common sense that to convince a man to put a gun down, the man must first be convinced that no harm will come to him. The problem with this strategy is how difficult it is to reconcile with intelligence on the prospects for disarming North Korea. Peace make... more »

Lobster armor? Talk about a throwback!
I'm amused to see that the humble lobster may be the inspiration for a new generation of personal armor protection.

The underside of the lobster’s tail is equipped with a membrane of incredible strength. Unlike the more rigid panels that cover the top side of the creature, the coating on its belly is very flexible. The team even compares it to i... more »

Mitch McConnell And The Inflection Point
William Rivers Pitt has written a really interesting piece on Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell. Pitt believes McConnell is a valuable teacher: He teaches us in graphic fashion how not to be. In his own words, McConnell shines a light down that road to ruin — his road, his way — and compels us for our own sake to choose the other route. He serves to make the decision binary: zero vs. one, nothing vs. something, altogether elegant in its simplicity. It is all of a piece, the centuries-old notion of this country as a paycheck for the few at the expense of the many. British col... more »

My emal to the BBC about their Macedonia story and its source "Mr Fokas", I ask for his first name and contact details to verify he exists
Have just sent an email to the BBC asking for the contact details for their source on their news story about an oppressed Slav minority Macedonia, a mysterious lawyer called only "Mr Fokas." Let's see if the beeb is fully transparent about their sources. If he's in such danger, why do they give his picture and so many details about him, making him easily identifiable in Greece, at least in theory. Why not also give his first name to make him verifiable as a legitimate source? The BBC can't have it both ways. Read the text below Hallo, I am writing to ask you to send me t... more »
SO HOW ARE DEMOCRATS DOOMED THIS WEEK?
*The New York Times* reports that moderate House Democrats are being asked to answer for the pronouncements of their progressive colleagues. The situation is initially portrayed as dire: NEPHI, Utah — In the suburbs of Salt Lake City, Representative Ben McAdams, a freshman, was grilled by constituents about the “socialism” and “anti-Semitism” that they saw coming out of the new Democratic House. “How long do you intend to ride that train with those people?” one Utahan asked. In Michigan, Representative Haley Stevens was asked about her ability to counter what one voter deemed the b... more »
Feinstein blows off kids worried about climate change
This is how Senator Dianne Feinstein reacted to children asking her to support the #GreenNewDeal resolution -- with smugness and disrespect. This California Democrat shows what Congress thinks of the future generations. Throw all the arrogant bunch of them out and start over with a Congress full of 12-year olds. We'd be much better off. Anyone who believes the Democrats are working for the people needs their head examined. These jerks work for the fossil fuel industry and Wall Street. Feinstein should resign today after this display of ignorance and incompetence. We need to ...more »

Ode to the Neocons and Their High and Lonely Destiny
This is a rerun of a piece I did a couple of years back. Somehow the spectacle of President Swamp, Pompeo, Bolton, Abrams, Rubio, Sanders, the Clintons and the entire mainstream media bleeding their poor little warmongering hearts out at the prospect of “saving” yet another country (no, not France) made me think of it. Can’t think why. The White Hats and the Black Hats stood on each side, Eyeball to eyeball across the divide. Neither advanced nor retreated one […]
Monday Morning Links
Miscellaneous material to start your week. - David Roberts sets out the big picture surrounding the Green New Deal, as essentially nobody other than the activists supporting it has made any effort to deal with the reality of impending climate breakdown: (T)hat’s the context here: a world tipping over into catastrophe, a political system under siege by reactionary plutocrats, a rare wave of well-organized grassroots enthusiasm, and a guiding document that does nothing but articulate goals that any climate-informed progressive ought to share. Given all that, for those who acknowledge... more »
The Afghan Stag Hunt
Photo Credit: NATO photo by Capt. Leanna Litsch, Kabul Security Force Public Affairs The heated debate about the possibility of a U.S. troop withdrawal from Afghanistan, prompted by recent negotiations between the U.S. government and the Taliban, has focused understandably on the military value of security assistance. Some observers argue that a precipitous American retreat will leave the country—and even the capital, Kabul—vulnerable to an emboldened, undeterred Taliban given the limited capabilities of Afghanistan’s national security forces. Those in favor of withdrawal are ske... more »

I Did A Poll-- And So Did Emerson
Jonathan Allen, writing for NBC News, lays out Kamala Harris' path to victory. It depends heavily on a "juggernaut" in California, which many California voters are discovering for the first time, is where she's from. "California voters alone," wrote Allen, "will send more than 400 delegates to the convention, nearly double second-ranking Texas. Will California voters cast their votes for someone just because she's from California, despite having ZERO accomplishments and a *very* mixed record? She's managed to round up endorsements from a governor few people care about one way or ... more »

Could there be a more deceptive euphemism than the name given to this gargantuan federal bureaucracy, which has done so little to help our kids and their teachers succeed? At one time, there was hope. In 1980, Ronald Reagan campaigned on abolishing the Depar... more »
