Given A Choice, Nikki Haley Chose To Undermine The Country For Trump
Nikki Haley is a politician-- a former governor of South Carolina-- who would like to be president. She has a new book, *With All Due Respect*, coming out tomorrow, and her publishing company-- with her consent-- promoted it yesterday by leaking the most sizzling hot pages to the *Washington Post*. Anne Gearan wrote it up yesterday. Haley seems charming or, in her own words, "bad ass," in the *CBS Sunday Morning* interview (above). But it would behoove you to remember, she's, first and foremost, a conservative Republican-- a Trump apologist-- whose policies are not any different ... more »
This is so sad. . . evil in our land
“As the left has increasingly exposed itself in the Trump era as rabidly illiberal, irrational, and immoral, it is time for the right to acknowledge that the left is not merely wrong, but evil. As an ideology, Progressivism – the rebranding of Communism – embraces totalitarianism and absolute statist control, which always and everywhere leads to misery, corruption, and brutality, and never elevates humanity. Conservatives who believe that it is still possible to reason with the left and engage them in fair-and-square policy debates are clinging to a failed strategy, sadly. We must... more »

Theists Versus Atheists
Being an atheist is not a sign of a person’s individualism, rationality, and pure moral sentiments but a philosophical position, which is a subject of contentious debate because it can never be proved to be right or wrong. The idea that atheism goes hand in hand with individualism, rationality, and morality is an Enlightenment claim, but there is no philosophical or scientific evidence to back this claim. There is also no evidence to back the claim that the atheists are happier than the theists—in most countries surveys have shown that the theists are generally happier and have a lon... more »

The Poet: Paul Fisher, "The Boat"
*"The Boat"* "Maybe the eyes of a dragon or goddess glare from its prow. More likely it leaks, loses an oar, and reeks of rainbows awash on a sheen of gutted salmon and gasoline. If it’s a liner, we lash ourselves to whatever will float or sell. No matter which. We choose. We’re aboard, icebergs or no, as we plow through the songs of the siren stars - one boat, black water, dark whispering below." - Paul Fisher, "Rumors of Shore"

"Above All..."
"Time is ungovernable, but grief presents us with a choice: what do we do with the savage energies of bereavement? What do we do with the memory - or in the memory - of the beloved? Some commemorate love with statuary, but behavior, too, is a memorial, as is a well-lived life. In death, there is always the promise of hope. The key is opening, rather than numbing, ourselves to pain. Above all, we must show our children how to celebrate existence in all its beauty, and how to get up after life has knocked us down, time and again. Half-dead, we stand. And together, we salute love.

A serious critique of the real-world Asymptotic Safety program for quantum gravity
As I wrote e.g. here ten years ago, I consider Weinberg's "Asymptotic Safety" paradigm in quantum gravity to be a deep misunderstanding. The program basically wants to ignore the non-renormalizability of Einstein's equations; and special "non-local" phenomena discovered in recent decades, including holography. Instead, it wants to treat Einstein's equations as if they were on par with QCD and the theory became asymptotically free at high energy scales – which could determine the theory at lower energy scales, too.

Roman Polanski accused of 'extremely violent' rape of French woman in 1975 when she was 18: report
I guess he thinks that the new standard for a pass on rape 'rape' is a graceful apology. finally someone in Europe has come forward, which suggests that 'me too' is now working over there as well. I do think that we may well see a huge wave of rape accusations against men that go back decades. The laws will need to be adjusted to accommodate this particular crime, not least because much of the damage is psychological and similar to PTSD. There is also the real problem of delayed justice itself. After decades, real witnesses no longer are available often as not and proof may ... more »

Putin pledges to 'do everything to protect Christians in the Middle East'
What no one wants to address is that a Sectarian Democratic government is impossible so long as actual tribes exist alongside a culture of political - economic dominance in which corruption is the order of the day.

This looks naturally unstable but may actually be the best way forward until full trust is possible.

Veteran's Day
The Venezuela timeline is a cautionary tale for our days because we can see it unfold. The pattern is unmistakable. When it comes to veterans, custodians of the nation's defense, there is so much to say to so many. Some left it all on the field. Some came home broken, some managed to push through and everybody traded time, which was all they had, in the hope for something greater for the people they served. On days like today, I feel as if the blood and treasure spent to defend the nation has been horribly betrayed. The Traitor, Jane Fonda, was a one-off to me during the Vietnam w... more »
Is Capitalism Broken? Or Is Something Else To Blame For America's Economic Woes?
*James Pethokoukis* *Economics, * Maybe it’s not the case that Trumps' tax cuts failed business, but rather that business has failed the tax cuts. The recent downshift in US economic growth has led many critics of the 2017 Trump tax cuts to declare them a failure. In particular, skeptics have noted the lack of a sharp and sustained upturn in business investment. Higher business investment — eventually leading to higher productivity and wages — is supposed to be the key growth-forcing mechanism of the tax cuts. But maybe it’s not the case that the tax cuts failed business, but rat... more »

If America's Economy Is So Strong, Why Is Elizabeth Warren Fighting To Change It?
*James Pethokoukis* *Politics, * Sometimes the numbers don't tell the whole story. Consider three observations about the US economy. First, it’s still generating gobs of jobs more than a decade into a record-long economic expansion. That’s the big story of the October jobs report. The decent 128,000 payroll gains looks even better considering it was depressed by the GM strike and census employment.

America Has A Poverty Problem, But Its Poor Are Better Off Today Than Ever
*Chris Edwards* *Economics, Americas* Official poverty data is too pessimistic. The government says that America’s poverty rate is 11.8 percent.

Pete Buttigieg Is Reviving the Pragmatic, Progressive Ideals of the Social Gospel Movement
*David Mislin* *Politics, Americas* [image: Reuters] Buttigieg has tapped into a tradition of religious liberalism that once flourished in the American Midwest. Pete Buttigieg’s presidential campaign has attracted new attention since his aggressive performance in October’s Democratic primary debate. One late October poll of Iowa Democratic caucus-goers, the first voters to weigh in on the party’s 2020 nominee, showed the South Bend, Indiana, mayor in third place.
