The Sheer Incompetence Of The Florida Democratic Party Could Sentence All Of Us To 4 More Years Of Trump
On Friday, the *Tampa Bay Times* published another stinging indictment of the venal and incompetent Florida Democratic Party in the form of a question from top state Senate candidate Kathy Lewis: I can lift Biden and flip state Senate. Why won’t my party help?. Kathy (who has been endorsed by Blue America) is running for an open seat to represent parts of 3 counties Hillsborough, Pasco and Polk. The Hillsborough part of the county has already turned blue and Hillary beat Trump there 50.4% to 46.0%. And Polk County is trending blue. Trump won the whole district 115,750 (52.3%) to 9... more »
On Burke’s Phrase: “a swinish multitude”
“A swinish multitude”—by his use of this phrase, Edmund Burke has conveyed his low opinion of the men who become part of mobs and indulge in great violence to force society to accept their political agenda. In his *Reflections on the Revolution in France*, Burke writes: “Along with its natural protectors and guardians, learning will be cast into the mire and trodden down under the hoofs of a swinish multitude.” Burke’s use of the phrase “a swinish multitude” caused great controversy in his time and the radical politicians and intellectuals saw this as an attack on the underprivileg... more »

Why Radical Democrats Are Handing the Election to Donald Trump
*Aram Bakshian Jr.* *Politics, Americas* After so many years of successfully exploiting fear and deception, class resentment and racial tension, much of the Democratic leadership has ideologically overdosed. A few days ago, as I walked past the boarded-up storefronts of looted shops, pharmacies and liquor stores in an ordinarily peaceful neighborhood of my Washington, DC, home town, I found myself remembering a quote from Dr. John Arbuthnot (1667-1735), a canny Scots physician, scientist, mathematician and polymath. Largely forgotten today, Arbuthnot was one of the leading think... more »
Urban Farming is Catching on and it Can Make Us Healthier and More Resilient
*Dan Evans* *Environment, * The seeds of enthusiasm for home-grown food may have been sown, but sustaining this is essential. Urban farming has much to offer in the wake of the pandemic. It could help communities boost the resilience of their fresh fruit and vegetable supplies, improve the health of residents and help them lead more sustainable lifestyles. Since lockdown, public interest in growing fruit and vegetables at home has soared. Seed packets are flying off shelves and allotment waiting lists are swelling, with one council receiving a 300% increase in applications. Fear ... more »

*Randal O'Toole* *Politics, Americas* [image: https://www.reutersconnect.com/all?id=tag%3Areuters.com%2C2020%3Anewsml_RC2RNF9ECKSL&share=true] City planners need to make transit that reflects the people who actually use them. The transit industry has developed two systems: one for “choice” riders and one for “dependent” riders, “that is to say white and Black,” says urban planner Christof Spieler. A former member of the Harris County (Houston) Metro board of directors, Spieler points out one place where Metro offers riders a choice between bus‐rapid transit and a local bus. The... more »

Remembering the forgotten people
As this economic collapse during the pandemic grows in scale more and more homeless will be on American streets. They are unwanted by the rulers - superfluous populations as 'industry' turns to robots, computers, mechanization and outsourcing of jobs to cheaper locations. Most people who have jobs are 1-2 pay checks away from being cast into the darkness themselves. Fortunately there are many out there who care about the homeless and give their life blood to helping to bring them dignity, support and hopefully a good place to rest their weary bodies. Bruce

In 467 words, the agenda lists goals ranging from eradicating COVID-19 and restoring economic growth to health care, immigration, foreign policy, and other issues drawn from today’s headlines. The agenda will be roundly criticized for not explaining in detail what the president would do to achieve those goals. Whatever yo... more »

Lost In Space: Why America Needs a New Defense Strategy
*Peter Garretson* *Security, Americas* [image: Reuters] It’s a fairly common occurrence for lower-level documents to be superseded by new policy decisions, requiring framing and language to be rewritten. But it doesn’t often happen to documents of such importance. Although the U.S. government’s Defense Space Strategy (DSS), its most important military guidance for space, was released barely a month ago, it already requires a fundamental rewrite. That’s because the Pentagon’s current plan has been superseded by higher-level guidance that establishes an entirely different national ... more »

Is the U.S. Federal Reserve Opening an Inflation Pandora's Box?
*Desmond Lachman, John Kearns* *Security, Americas* [image: Reuters] The Fed seems to be giving Congress the green light to embark on a policy of fiscal profligacy in the period immediately ahead. It is doing so even though history is littered with examples of prolonged periods of budget profligacy ending in tears.

*Mark Episkopos* *Security, Asia* This much seems clear: Even as Japan's political landscape stands on the cusp of seismic changes, the long-sought window of opportunity for a diplomatic ‘reset’ between Japan and North Korea remains elusive. Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe has resigned, announcing his intention to step down at a press conference in Tokyo late last week.

The instrument chosen is to restrict Huawei’s use of sophisticated semiconductors crippling its production capacity. The underlying fear supporting this policy is that China, through Huawei... more »

At the Republican National Convention, supporters of President Trump’s reelection bid have celebrated his attempts to build a Mexico border wall, his promise to “bring our troops home” and his pledge to end U.S. “reliance on China.” All are components of the “America First” agenda Trump ran on in 2016.

*"Why You Don't Know Your Own Mind"* by Alex Rosenberg "It is often said that we can never truly know the minds of others, because we can't "get inside their heads." Our ability to know our own minds, though, is rarely called into question. It is assumed that your experience of your own consciousness clinches the assertion that you "know your own mind" in a way that no one else can. This is a mistake.
