8-16-21 For a man whose sense of empathy was shaped by personal tragedy, Biden came off as cold and uncaring about the Taliban’s habit of bloody revenge. His promises that he would get all Americans and thousands of our allies safely out don’t appear realistic given that the Taliban control all of Kabul, including the roads leading to the airport. The icy coldness in his speech was matched only by his dishonesty in presenting the choices he faced. His claim that he either had to commit more troops endlessly or leave now is a shameful lie.

The Canadian Broadcasting Corporation and its Cozy Relationship with the Trudeau Government
Canadians of all ages have grown up under the tutelage of the nation's public radio and television broadcaster, the CBC (aka Radio-Canada) which has been funded by taxpayers since its founding as the Canadian Radio Broadcasting Commission in 1932 with a name change to the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation in November 1936. Let's look at how the CBC is funded from its 2019 - 2020 annual report: Here are the CBC's sources of funding from 2018 - 2019: As you can see, the CBC receives roughly 70 percent of its total revenue from government funding thanks to the generosity ... read more

Arne Duncan and Pedagogical Badger Hats
Arne Duncan was at it again, popping up on Fareed Zakaria's CNN show to talk about post-covid education (looking kind of Herman Munster-ish on his Zoom screen). Much of his shtick was predictable. Students are months behind (which actually means, of course, scores on the Big Standardized Test are down, we think). We have to meet their social emotional needs, as we accelerate learning (just, you know, teach faster, because teachers have been holding back all these years). Zakaria says/asks, the "digital economy" did awesome in most sectors, but in education learning-through-a-sc... read more

U.S. War Colleges Must Teach Their Officers On How To Win Wars
*Thomas Bruscino Mitchell G. Klingenberg, City Journal*:* Putting the “War” Back in War Colleges* Our nation’s senior-officer educational institutions no longer teach warfighting—and that must change.

This wasn’t because our military professionals lack will or effort but because they have forgotten the real purpose for which militaries exist. Nowhere is t... read more

And then François Legault went and spoiled his morning by tacitly endorsing Conservative Leader Erin O’Toole.

History lesson: Spy tech changes, plan for social control remainsRamblinactivist 2021/16, 8th September 2021. The most effective books are able to transcend time; by applying a relatively broad, well-observed analysis of the roots of complex issues in the past, that continue to have relevance today.
