Hoping For The Smart Restart!
The AFP lays out Trump's election strategy. In his Trumpian way I think he has managed to find a winning message that he will present in a divisive way. (I wish I could remember which pundit pointed out weeks ago that no one should underestimate Trump's sense of the national mood. Probably quite...

Good Intel From Tyler Cowen
Tyler Cowen of Marginal Revolution looks at the variety of epidemiological models for coronavirus and stays with the "better safe than sorry" approach. I concur. He also links to this excellent non-firewalled FT piece by Tim Harford. A major part of the controversy revolves around the question o...

Back From A Brief Break. A Psychotic Break.
OK, wow. Last night I had to go off for a seemingly simple household chore: pick up some Clorox bleach, Fantatik spray cleaner, and Windex. I get down to our local grocery store and... hmmm. Its obvious where the toilet paper used to be next to the paper towels, but those shelves are now empty. ...
Dear God. Chris Wallace on Fox interviewing Romney. Romney will vote to CONVICT.

Meanwhile, Back In Iowa...
More results have trickled in. At last look, 538 had 71% of the votes. Their prediction jibes with that of the NY Times Upshot: Sanders will probably have more total votes (both first and second round) and Buttigieg will probably get more delegates. Why? Sort of an Electoral Pre-School effect: S...
Redford lives a fair distance north of me. He's certainly added to real estate values in his north of Provo, UT, location.

Trial Of The Millenium
I'm not seriously expected to watch this, am I? However, I am curious whether Chief Justice Roberts would endorse this view about Senate trials and super-subpoenas: “With the backing of a subpoena authorized by the chief justice of the United States, you can end President Trump’s obstruction,” s...
After countless hours taking apart this case on JOM, wouldn't it be gratifying if this lawsuit is successful; not just for George Zimmerman, but for a whole host of falsely accused people we've followed in the news.
In our present culture, bearing false witness has disgustingly become a Democrat party specialty. It's time for justice.

It's A Slam Dunk!
I don't believe I've ever seen a dunk rejected in quite this fashion. The old and embittered out there may be reminded of George Tenet's slam dunk.
Matt, if corporate media heads and reporters are in any way implicated in the reports we're all waiting expectantly to receive, perhaps ownership and investment shuffles could benefit audiences thirsty for a return to reasonably 'fair' MSM journalism. Big leap, of course....

Buttigieg Coming Up Roses
The Centrists Strike Back! Mayor Pete surges to the lead in a tiny, statistically unpersuasive New Hampshire poll. This follows his more convincing lead in a recent Iowa poll. All very exciting as we roar into tonight's Democratic debate in Atlanta aired on MSNBC (9 PM ET). Here is a fun Fight N...

Damn it, we can't nuke hurricanes and now we can't even nuke climate change. The problem? US electric production is only responsible for about a quarter of US greenhouse gas emissions. Even if we went all-in on nuclear, hydropower and other renewables we'd have a lot of carbon left over in trans...

MM, your head is on so straight, you're not even aware of your contributions to those who read your opinions and posts daily. Those girls helping you may be a clue to your late in life career! You have a firm grasp of history and human nature, gleaned from your personal education and life experience, which often surpasses any so-called expert's take on current political and cultural events. Those girls are fortunate to have you as their 'mentor'. I learn from you with your every post -- not much ever gets past your discerning eye. And if you make a mistake or misspeak, you're the first to come forward with an explanation or apology. I really appreciate your presence on JOM... :) - Thanks.

Make America Think Harder
I'm holding out hope for Yang-Williamson 2020. Yang may be right about increasing automation eventually leading to widespread unemployment (as per Vonnegut's 1952 "Player Piano") but it is a harder sell with unemployment at 3.7%.
Thanks, Narciso79, I'm doing quite well..:)
Hope this movement gets wider circulation:

Bush 41 Joins Barbara
George H.W. Bush has passed on. It may be odd but (as long-time readers will recall) my clearest memory of Bush 41 is his second Presidential debate with The Duke. I watched it with an ardent liberal, who basically chose to hide under a towel after fifteen minutes. If it had been a fight, the re...

Michael Cohen claims to have chased a Trump Tower-type deal in Moscow until just before the Republican primary in 2016, despite previous testimony that he (and more to the point, Trump) dropped the effort before the Iowa primaries. Possible explanations: (a) Cohen is lying. Problematic, since th...

My son's mother and father in-law lost their home of many decades in a canyon east of Chico; a friend's two cousins each lost a home in Paradise. CA is my birth state even though our immediate family moved out many decades ago. My fervent prayer is that POTUS and crew have intelligence squared on the people and players who are currently, politically and environmentally, destroying this state for their own selfishly obscene purposes.
