THE DECLARATION AS THE SIGNERS UNDERSTOOD IT: I’ve read more analyses than I care to remember of the true meaning of the Declaration of Independence, and I have to say Rod Martin’s “The Christian Worldview of ‘Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness'” does a fine job of explicating key phrases as all but a couple of the signers — Jefferson and Franklin — likely understood them. And even TJ and Ben had to speak in the language of the rest of the signers. And all of them understood those inalienable rights to be characteristic of every man, not just Christians,
ANALYSIS: TRUE.
The reason the @nytimes can practice gross journalist malpractice, like they did to Lyndsey, is because they know there will be no consequences, from their company, from their media peers, and from their subscribers. In fact, protecting Democrats is how you climb the ladder. https://t.co/ztkh9F6ARs

”A PEOPLE BUILDING TOWARD THE STARS HAS NO TIME TO BECOME BIG BROTHER:”
We are living through a civilizational tipping point, and almost no one is naming it properly. So I will.
Where we come from, where we’re headed, and why a chunk of the PayPal Mafia is changing the world for the better in the most literal sense of the term.
Where we come from.
World War II birthed the Europeanist then globalist project, with an originally noble intent: never again. But that project was eaten away from within by a deeply anti-civilizational matrix—the dissolution of nations, cultures, concrete attachments in favor of an abstract, interchangeable, desk-manageable man.
And to make it go down easy, it leaned on ideological vehicles: a wokism that functions as a substitute religion for a West that’s learned to be ashamed of itself. Not necessarily a coordinated conspiracy—more a convergence of forces that all hate the same thing: the free, rooted, self-proud nation.
The result: half a century of managed decadence, packaged as progress.
Read the whole thing.

AN IMPORTANT REMINDER:
Former Gov. Ralph Northam was appointed to a college board by Gov. Abigail Spanberger this year after refusing to resign in 2019 in the face of party-wide demands in the wake of a blackface/Klan hood picture scandal and another admitted blackface incident. Everyone just shut up… https://t.co/mdaB963vpQ

More:
Everyone just shut up and he served a full term. Now, one of the reasons they didn’t force him out is bc their next two in the line of succession were an AG, who also had a blackface scandal, and a Lt. Gov. named Justin Fairfax who had faced sexual assault allegations and fast-forward, just recently murdered his wife. So, maybe Ds in Maine can find someone besides Platner who doesn’t have a racist pic or tattoo and/or violent history with women, but their record thus far not great, and the Virginia Dems don’t offer a template for that.
But Virginia Dems do offer a template of a cushy life after politics, no matter the offense.

I spoke to my old friend Mitch McConnell this morning, the senior Senator from Kentucky. He’s still recovering in the hospital. We talked for just shy of 45 minutes. He's so sharp. Just like always he let me do all of the talking. He's a great listener. After that we prayed…

It's the H1Bs and immigrants and we all know this. Whether talking inflated costs for housing, healthcare and schooling, or a brutal entry and mid level job market is because of them.
And as far as I know, not a single 2028 candidate has committed to ending the H1B program

TO BE FAIR, THE NYT WAS TRAUMATIZED BY THE FOURTH OF JULY: NYT Sounds The Alarm on the ‘Drastic Retrenchment’ Going On at ATF.
DISPATCHES FROM THE BLUE ZONES: Drugged Transients Overrun Austin Library. “She brings up how the Austin City Council under Mayor Adler repealed the ‘camping’ ordinance, in effect telling drug addicted transients to come party in Austin. And come they did.”
HE SHOULD RETIRE, BUT WON’T. McConnell’s health emergency sparks questions on whether he will return to Senate. Honestly, not sure he has the mental capacity to do so.
FACTS ARE RACIST OR SOMETHING:

Dangers of “white supremacy” narrative is pure propaganda.
Facts.

SPACE: ‘Once-in-a-millennium’ asteroid flyby will be visible to much of the world in 2029.
Three years before the skyscraper-size asteroid Apophis makes its very close (but safe) flyby of Earth, scientists have already begun charting exactly when and where billions of people can watch it sweep across the sky.
Speaking at an “Apophis T-3 Years” workshop held earlier this month at the University of Padua in Italy, retired cartographer Michael Zeiler and astronomer Rick Fienberg shared detailed visibility maps charting the asteroid’s passage across Earth’s skies.
According to their calculations, roughly 90% of the world’s population — about 7.6 billion people — lives in regions where Apophis could, in principle, be seen with the naked eye on April 13, 2029. The actual viewing success will depend more on earthly considerations, however, including cloud cover and the extent of light pollution.
Known formally as 99942 Apophis, the space rock will not resemble a blazing meteor tearing through the sky. Instead, scientists say it will appear as a point-like speck of light gliding steadily across, which, at its closest approach, will appear to move by about the apparent width of the full moon every minute.
Maybe we should try taking a once-in-a-millennium opportunity to practice diverting a large asteroid.
