The Founding Fathers: Ok, tell us why we went to all that bother again?

"Dems Find An Even Worse Candidate to Replace Graham Platner".

I wonder

Ace has a good rundown on the President's speech and media responses. In short, there's substantial evidence that China interfered in the 2020 election, the FBI covered it up, and the media colluded with the coverup.

My question is: are we in stage 4 or in end stage corruption? 

PSA

I understand that commenters have been having some trouble getting their comments published. I've been having occasional difficulty getting my own comments published (on my own blog). I'm researching the issue; I suspect that it's got something to do with security setups or cookies or some other thing that I have little knowledge of.

If you try to publish a comment, and you get a "Failed to publish, try again later" message, by all means, do try again later. Unfortunately, in one or two cases, I've wound up being unable to publish a comment on a post no matter how long I wait. 

I appreciate your diligence and patience. 

Is there still an "ethics" section on bar exams?

We've been seeing a fair amount of this over the last few years: "Missouri AG Moves to Oust Ray County Prosecutor Over Explosive Allegations of Affairs with Defense Attorney, Defendants — Including Illegal Alien Investigated for Felony Sex Crimes".

Hmm. Looks like the prosecutor just got back to the office after an "interview" with a defendant.

California's generations-long suicide attempt

What now? "This Is Bat-Guano Insane, California".

Should clothes be treated like toxic waste?

California legislators and regulators think so. And as a consequence, they passed a law and are now implementing regulations that require any apparel manufacturer to fund a closed-loop recycling system, of course run through an NGO, to ensure that for everything they sell, there is a corresponding recycling of discarded apparel.

Neutralizing the deep state

It's an arduous struggle against long odds, but dismantling the deep state, or at least seriously reining it in, remains the most important political struggle of our time. "Acceleration".

Happy Feet Friday

Jo Stafford sings that touching ballad, "The Gentleman is a Dope".
