   You know we are doing the right thing when Soros whines;
   George Soros recently lamented the rise of President Trump and anti-establishment parties across the globe, saying “everything that could go wrong, has gone wrong.”
   Soros made the comment in an interview with The Washington Post published Saturday. He also said that he did not expect Trump’s election, saying, “Apparently, I was living in my own bubble.”

   Is the house of cards crashing down?
   China has abruptly put the brakes on solar power subsidies, seeking to stem overcapacity in a sector that has benefited for years from government incentives.
   The move caught many in the industry off guard.
   Solar stocks have fallen across the board by double digits. It’s uncertain when they will recover.
   It hasn’t been a good week for wind energy either. In Britain, the industry has become a national joke because for seven days its wind turbines stood still and produced no electricity. Great news for all the birds and bats they would otherwise have sliced and diced; no problem for the renewables industry troughers who still get their rich subsidies whether the wind blows or not.

    as an aside, this being a sandbox and all, I got interested in the squeaking (h/t to j. smith) about Trump’s evil tariffs with Canada.
    It occurred to me that most of the folks expressing an opinion know essentially nothing about the history of that kind of thing. Proving the efficacy or evil of a tariff is hard enough, although it doesn’t stop CNN ‘reporters’ from trying, but at least you can look at the history of the thing.
    It’s easy enough. Just go to google news, search for ‘canada tariff’, and set the date to 2015 and prior. Anything after that will drag in the craziness concerning GEOTUS and his accession.
    I can’t say that the idea of ‘free trade’ ever really occurred to the Canadians before the latest uproar.

    Drag Queens never bothered me. Heck, I remember John Belusi’s The Raging Queen skit on SLN and have even attended a Cabaret Show once. No biggie, great entertainment, fun, funny, and singing as each of the performers were trying to out do Mae West. It was something recommended by my date (female) as a novel thing to do and turned out to be an entertaining experience.
    But, what gets me up in arms is:
    “Using public infrastructure as a vehicle to advance social justice morality is not new in Minnesota. In 2017, one of the state’s top school districts made national news after it was revealed officials had initiated a “sweeping initiative that reordered the district’s mission from academic excellence for all students to ‘racial equity.’”
    That pisses me off. Reordering the school district’s mission from academic excellence for all students to racial equity is one big dereliction of duty and responsibility…to our students. We are failing our school children and paying through the nose to do so. What is wrong with academic excellence? Why is that not the primary goal for all school children? I can understand, but not condone, this SJW crap on college campuses. But, school age children? Story book time at a public library? What ever happened to “everything I needed to know I leaned in kindergarten”? Opps. They are teaching that in kindergarten now. Nevermind.

    Here is one for the po’ ol’ pollhead –
    The reason why Democrats seem to be struggling in Ohio–and around the country–is contained in the next explosive newsworthy fact from this poll: President Trump is far more trusted and popular than Pelosi. When asked who they trust more to lead the nation, respondents overwhelmingly said President Trump and the GOP in Congress over Pelosi and Democrats in Congress. Trump leads Pelosi by double digits in this regard in Ohio, as 45 percent sided with him and Republicans whereas just 35 percent sided with Pelosi and Democrats.

    “Are Asian students now being classified as White?”
    Only when it suits a narrative. It’s not dissimilar to the way that Latinos (Hispanics? whatever the word is) are conflated with whites when suitable, not otherwise.
    I admit that it’s one of the great ironies of modern times. In large-scale IQ tests, one of the few things that sociologists appear to apply any rigor to, Northeast Asians are top o’ the heap (besides being well behaved as a group).
    But…they are a minority. Oh noes! Now what?!
    Given that a flat-out meritocracy will always be out of the question, and removal of bias in order to build one seems relatively straightforward, what’s a Progressive to do?
    If I were 18 and looking at college, it seems to me that a real money maker would be to specialize in bending AIs to current political prejudices. Left alone, mere pattern matching will end up with undesirable results, but knowing how to cook the books will be worth serious dosh as a profession.

    As many investigators have now confirmed, we are all different in almost any dimension you care to dredge up. And many of these differences are categorical, meaning people with blue eyes or black skin or pigeon-toed or … share certain sets of traits and also genes. Therefore as both Charles Murray (‘The Bell Curve’) and Nicholas Wade (‘A Troublesome Inheritence’) have documented, it’s not that hard to determine, say, the race of a person and/or ethnicity from analyzing his DNA, leaving out the part that determines skin color or ‘race’. Bottom line, we are not the same ‘under our skin’, and that’s what also makes us so unique in so many ways.

    GR: “Many thanks, but I don’t really see Trump as GEOTUS.”
    No one really does, but it’s a funny concept. It’s the kind of thing that’s meant as an in-joke (with a bit of self mockery), used to irritate the opposition, works well with memes. There’s plenty of Trump imagery out there showing him as a sort of world-conquering superman.
    Personally, I don’t think that Trump would succeed if he tones it down. He’s riding a wave that requires the purest form of self confidence. Looking to either side will result in wiping out. It’s all a once in a lifetime event.
    In for a penny, in for a pound. None of Trump’s policies have been particularly horrendous, but Team Blue responds with their own GEOTUS concept. It’s the idea that the current President is the most evil man in history, a kind of non-vegetarian Hitler who hates dogs. If their aim was to radicalize the Right, they’ve succeeded brilliantly.

    Think it was Jefferson’s second SOTU speech where he declared that we were getting enough revenue from tariffs to run the government and pay for an additional (second naval ship) so that other taxes previously levied are no longer necessary and would be going bye-bye. He seem to say that having too much money in the Treasury was a bad or potentially evil thing, reading between the lines. Imagine that. We got enough from tariffs to fund a limited government, no need to levy taxes. I. Fact, let’s rescind them. Those days are gone, but I digress.
    History begins today. Anybody know about how much revenue the Canooks get from high tariffs on US goods? Ah, nevermind. On to Sinaphore. That Trump don’t lallygag around.

    Trump has a new spokesman that is a wee bit more diplomatic that our Emperor God Dictator for Life Nimble Navigator Daddy. Hey, nothing personal, it’s just business.

    Give ‘em hell Pat, you fiery old Irish Catholic you. Tell it like it is.
    “Councilman Peter Koo took it straight to the mayor:
    [“The test is the most unbiased way to get into a school. … It doesn’t require a resume. It doesn’t even require connections. The mayor’s son just graduated from Brooklyn Tech and got into Yale. Now he wants to stop this and build a barrier to Asian-Americans — especially our children.”].
    Sing it loud, Pat, you old cultural warrior, you. Don’t hold back. Booyah,
    “It appears to be a future of endless collisions and conflicts over who deserves and who gets what — based upon ethnicity and race.”

    I see that Robert De Niro made an utter ass out of himself.
    The amusing thing would be to watch the audience. A lot of folks standing to applaud as true anti-Trump zealots, but also an awful lot of people who fear not being seen clapping. It’s one of those beautifully Stalinesque moments.
    Sometimes I think it would be a good idea to reinstitute infamia for Hollywood.

    Nevada County’s voter rolls can use a good scrubbing too.
    My own Brother is still listed, and hasn’t voted in this state in 20 years.
    Come to think about it, I better check on my dear departed Mamma.
    She would role over in her grave if she winds up voting Democrat.

    re M 1002am – It always brings a smile to my face to witness the utter joy that such an obvious and retracted gaffe brings to certain people. BTW, to date Trump and the ugly fat kid have yet to meet, but we can understand that such anticipatory joy does sometimes create a blindspot or two.
