Kyle Rittenhouse criticized Biden (for criticizing him). Kyle, here’s some advice: some day you might become a pundit. If that’s your goal—and we both know it’s not—enroll at the University of Arizona, the University of Illinois (SIU or Champaign, …

(Congressman Alcee Hastings died this week).

Alcee Hastings, a civil rights leader in the 1970’s, was the first black federal district judge in Florida. Judge Alcee Hastings sat on the bench in federal court while the old Miami power structure …

Only one type of speech is properly prohibited and that is speech which seeks to censor others. A person who advocates censoring others should himself be censored. Censorship is needed, many will argue, citing the example of the one who yells “Fire” …

The report of Jeffrey Stahl Ferris’ suicide after a federal jury found him guilty of terror-related charges in North Dakota seemed strange to me. Da’esh, that is, ISIS, has but a tenuous grasp of geography outside what were traditional Muslim lands. …

I spent a good deal of February researching and writing a brief volume titled, Saudi Arabia Privacy Law, anticipating the effective date of Saudi Arabia’s own personal data protection law, modeled after the European Union’s GDPR. Unfortunately for …

The Houthis have substantially improved the accuracy of their targeting and hit an Aramco refinery in Jeddah. This is bad enough, but that refinery is supplied by Aramco’s East-West pipeline which carries 5 million barrels per day. If the refinery …

Context: a few weeks ago, an influencer announced that he had obtained an exclusive interview with the press-shy prime minister of Thailand and posted a selfie as proof. He boasted about his a journalistic coup and preached to other journalists to …

The Ukrainians have pledged to rebuild the An-225 six-engined superplanc transporter, the only one of its kind in the world. This is wishful thinking. It doesn’t take an aviation construction expert to see that this airframe is a total loss.

Facebook gets 15,000 applications for every announcement of a new job opening, You would need an army of screeners to review these applications; giving each one personal attention is out of the question. So the company, like most big companies these …

It’s the best we can do.

Colonel Sanders, International Man of Mystery

You may only know him as a Kentucky lawyer who came up with an internationally-recognized recipe for tasty fried chicken. What you don’t know is that in the 1970’s, at the request of the American …

Usually at this point I would rant about McKinsey’s advice to US companies to offshore and outsource production to cut costs and so “increase shareholder value.” China is the greatest, though not the only beneficiary of this largesse. China’s economy …

A certain Big 4 accounting firm had a client who wanted a cat-catcher license in the Canal Zone, a jurisdiction no longer in existence. Big 4 would also work on the matter. I didn’t bother to vette the client because Big 4, who presumably had …

The Thai Prime Minister, Prayut Chan o Cha, visited Riyadh on Tuesday, January 25th. Following his visit, the two countries announced the re-establishment of diplomatic relations. What caused the breach? Thirty years ago, a Thai gardener stole 100 …

Freedom from responsibility. America’s freedoms have been boiled down to one issue: “do they make you wear a mask?” Maybe this should be added to the Bill of Rights.

“Arrive on vacation, leave on probation.”

The MSM has pushed Ivermectin as a horse dewormer, and anyone who attempts to contradict this dogma runs the risk of censure and deplatforming. But now there’s this:

This implies that 89% of the participants benefited from taking Ivermectin as a …

Following a crash involving a dump truck, three macaques escaped from their cages while being transported to a CDC-approved quarantine center. The macaques had just arrived from Africa; the breed can carry the Ebola virus and in the past has …

CNN, at least in this instance, has stopped calling Ivermectin a veterinary medicine and more accurately states,

The last time I flew on an A-380 was in business class returning to Dubai from Munich. Today I am flying economy and the aircraft is configured for maximum capacity in a 3-4-3 configuration. The flight is completely full. I am on the aisle and suffer …

Two years ago, there was no treatment for the Sickness; in that context I predicted that the pandemic would go away once an effective treatment was available. Yet here we are, two years later, with many treatments on offer and the world still …

The separatist war that birthed South Sudan was particularly brutal. The northern part of the country is the site of the traditional capital, Khartoum; the south mostly undeveloped. The language of the north is Arabic and the religion Islam; the …

Those who say that acquittal was a foregone conclusion? Nope. Not when the jury is out for four days. This case could have gone either way.

I wonder if the jury struggled with the narrative, with the accepted wisdom. Interesting to see how many …
