Iraq's Oil Revenues Reach Highest Amount In Almost A Decade
Global oil prices are heading towards $100 per barrel again, which benefits Iraq the most oil dependent country in the world. In January 2022 the country exported an average of 3.203 million barrels a day. That was down from December's mark of 3.277 million barrels. Exports had been rising for seven months straight, but they often fluctuate. The rising exports were due to Iraq's oil production quota increasing under the OPEC+ agreement. In January the nation's quota was 4.281 million barrels up from 4.237 million barrels in December. Despite the drop in sales prices continued ... read more

The breeding-ground for "woke" District Attorneys and politically correct prosecutions?
The New York Post says the problems originated at the John Jay College of Criminal Justice. Ground zero for woke district attorneys is a left-wing think tank in the heart of the Big Apple. The soft-on-crime approach espoused by Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg and other progressive prosecutors in troubled Democratic cities has been nurtured and advanced by a policy center at John Jay College of Criminal Justice, no less. *. . .* The Institute’s symposiums and issue papers hold forth on topics such as race, officer-involved deaths and bail reform — all in a concerted e... read more

The Quixote Quest for Reason“There are two excesses: to exclude reason, and to admit reason only.” ~ Blaise Pascal Pascal is right. To exclude reason and to admit reason only are equally harmful for mankind. If you exclude reason, you are trapped in a cycle of mysticism, traditionalism, and rationalism; if you depend on only reason, then you are trapped in a cycle of nihilism, rationalism, and utopianism. It is natural for people to look for self-esteem. For the modern man, the simplest way of having self-esteem is to develop the notion that he represents the side of reason or science.

Biden bribes the UnionsNY Post Editorial: In a move guaranteeing that last year’s bipartisan infrastructure package will give less bang for its trillion bucks, President Biden last Friday signed an executive order requiring every federally funded construction job above $35 million in cost to be governed by a Project Labor Agreement — which is essentially a license for labor-union blackmail. Federal construction is already covered by “prevailing wage” laws that impose “list” union pay rates (even as union workers regularly agree to work for less on private projects), markedly boosting costs.

Women are a key to GOP retaking the HouseJohn Sexton: You probably remember that in the run up to the 2020 election the expectation was that Democrats could pick up as many as a dozen seats in the House.
