KYRSTEN LIEBERMAN'S PLANS FOR 2024 (updated)
Kyrsten Sinema has been trolling us with her public silence for months. Now she's deigned to give an interview to Politico, and she's still trolling us. Her main point is that she still doesn't have to respond to the lowly peasants who dare to ask her what she stands for. Sinema wouldn’t respond to liberals who panned her bipartisan negotiations, just as she won’t discuss ongoing work on Biden’s companion bill focusing on climate and social spending. ...

The Funeral of the Western Empire“Knowledge advances, funeral by funeral.” ~ Paul Samuelson Samuelson is right. Most intellectuals, especially those who occupy influential positions in universities, research institutions, and think tanks, tend to extreme conservatism. They stick to their theories with the tenacity of bloodsucking leeches sticking to their prey. They use their influence and power to prevent the analysis of new evidence and the acceptance of new theories. Until they die, and a new generation takes over, the advancement of knowledge is difficult, if not impossible, to achieve. The phenomena of advan... read more
