BACKLASH POLLING AT NPR
NPR commissions a poll and gets a result centrist journalists dream of: an admonition to Democrats that they're going too far. Heading into the 2020 Democratic primaries, a new NPR/PBS NewsHour/Marist poll has a warning for Democrats: Americans are largely against the country becoming more politically correct. Fifty-two percent of Americans, including a majority of independents, said they are against the country becoming more politically correct and are upset that there are too many things people can't say anymore. Only about a third said they are in favor of the country becoming mo... more »

The Former National Security Advisor’s Sentencing Hearing: Flynncompetent Judging
A number of years ago, a group of singing lawyers put together an excellent parody song about the egomania of federal district judges. Set to the tune of the old Turtles song, “Happy Forever,” it opens: “Imagine me as God—I do. I think about it day and night. It feels so right to be a federal district judge and know that I’m appointed forever.” *L’Affaire Russe* has long presented the American public with a master class in bad defense lawyering and white collar subjects and targets run amok.

Readers unhappy about Aaronson's correct criticism of quaternionic QM
In 2012, I wrote a simple text saying why the wave function has to be complex. To preserve the sum of probabilities, one needs something oscillating with a constant absolute value, and \(\exp(i\phi)\) is needed for that. That's why \(i\) has to appear in Schrödinger's equation. By some Lagrangian-Hamiltonian translation, the same \(i\) also appears in Feynman's path integral through \(\exp(iS/\hbar)\). And by the Heisenberg-Schrödinger equivalence, the same \(i\) also appears in the Heisenberg equations of motion defining the Heisenberg picture. And the commutator \(xp-px\) has to... more »

Actually, both Stephen Moore and I are very convinced that the Climate Change Industrial-Scientific Complex is biased. An impending doom justifies their income as experts and as green energy companies. Questioning whether a mere 1.5°C temperature increase would represent a catastrophe for the world is met with outrage by those raking in the money on the basis of the Great Scare. I have experienced this and Stephen Moore noted the outpouring of anger after comments he made on CNN about how the income stream based on catastrophic man-made global warming alarm caused bias on the par... more »

Judge Emmet Sullivan Goes Off the Rails on Flynn; Makes Crazed, Unhinged and Completely False Statements, Coup Continues
*by Barbara Boyd* From the available reporting, Federal Judge Emmet Sullivan went completely off the rails today in the sentencing hearing concerning Michael Flynn. Many counted on Judge Sullivan, the man with the reputation for investigating and causing prosecution of illegal Justice Department tactics. Judge Sullivan, after all, famously called the Justice Department to account in the prosecution of Senator Ted Stevens, courageously tossing the entire case because of failures to produce exculpatory evidence to Stevens’ defense. It was hoped that someone with Sullivan’s reputed ... more »

About Beto-- Flawed, As Are Most Candidates... But Is He A Flash In The Pan?
*Oy* Let me reiterate: Blue America backed Beto when he ran for Congress against conservative Democrat Silvestre Reyes in 2012. He wasn't a bad member of Congress but we were disappointed that he veered more centrist than his district and joined the New Dems. We didn't endorse him for reelection in 2014 or 2016 but we were one of the first groups outside of Texas to back him in his Senate bid against Ted Cruz. He seemed to grow as a candidate when he took on Cruz and I was happy to lend a hand. The idea of him running for president, though, is disconcerting. He's not going to be par...more »
