THE BUSH ADMINISTRATION SHOULD HAVE BOOSTED THE COUP THAT NEARLY REMOVED HUGO CHAVEZ: Dealing With Maduro Is No Distraction. It’s a Necessity.

CHANGE: The Giant Awakes: The Worldwide Left Is Losing Its Grip. “Our future, as (legal) voters catch on to the disaster that is our drift into collectivism, is now no longer a longish line of five -year plans dictated and mismanaged by the leftist elite. Invariably those wet dreams were shown by experience to be almost universally destabilizing, to the point where I have often wondered in my writings if that destabilization was the only goal. The voters, who for the last 100 years or so have been far more conservative than anything either American party has coughed up, recognized the real problem long before those party establishments did.”

WATCH ME VIA ZOOM:  You can register here to watch my talk–“Why We Walk on Eggshells”– at Cornell University via Zoom.  The talk–which will be live and in person at Cornell’s Statler Hall in Ithaca, New York–takes place tomorrow–Monday at 5:30 p.m.  If you’re in the area, please come.

I checked out Ithaca’s weather this morning.  The expected low on Monday is just 8 degrees (though the high is expected to be a balmy 25).  I’ve been searching my bureau here in San Diego for a pair of woolen socks.  I’m not sure I’ve owned any since I lived in Chicago in the 1980s.

“ELECTED.”

The European Union is not the "good guy" in this fight.

MORE SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH FALSIFICATION:  There’s a old joke about looking for your lost keys in the dark near the lamppost because that’s where the light is. In this case it seems that BioNtech deliberately sabotaged one lamp so regulators would look under the other one and, amazingly, find nothing. Now if you shine a spotlight near the sabotaged lamppost all kinds of interesting things appear:  Layman’s description of RNA:DNA hybrids. An intentional game of “Hide the Ball”.
