  • George Rebane How do you talk math with someone who believes 2+2=5? As I scan the morning papers and posts, some inevitable thoughts, idle and maybe not so idle, bubble to the surface. The above tag line is apropos to the total breakdown in America’s public discourse, and I do mean total.  This week ‘Thousands…

  • George Rebane California’s public education system has been dysfunctional for years, and now in the age of riots and the growing socialist revolution, it is ready to take its final turns around the drain.  You will not read any of this in the lamestream, because the new curriculum to be adopted by Sacramento next spring…

  • George Rebane Not only can you have your own opinions, but today you can also have your own facts, history, science, logic, and language.  Rebane Doctrine Orwellian Inclusivity.  Only a progressive works to achieve inclusivity by first rooting out all wrong-thinkers.  (See all the ongoing firings of leftist academics and journalists for even putting a…

  • George Rebane [This is the addended transcript of my regular KVMR commentary broadcast on 26 August 2020.] California’s irregular power blackouts remind us of visits to third world countries.  As with our state’s recent and still ongoing water shortages, these power blackouts are totally manmade.  We are needlessly doing it to ourselves to achieve political…

  • [The Democrats' damage and destruction to America's black population reaches back to ante-bellum years.  In recent decades they have turned their tender mercies for our African-American neighbors onto cynical avenues that have laid waste to black families and the communities in which they live.  Under decades of Democrat rule we can echo the question asked…

  • George Rebane Bumblebrain read little that's new off his teleprompter last Thursday night.  The only policy statement he made was what he’d do to end the C19 epidemic in the US.  His Big Lie was the enumeration of everything that Trump has already done or has under way, save for a federal mandate to impose…

  • George Rebane The Covid-19 pandemic has called on hundreds of local jurisdictions to fashion response policies that are suitable for their particular locales and demographics.  In technical note TN2007-1 we introduce Sigfor, a computational tool that policy makers can use for monitoring the effectiveness of the current policy and yield an early prediction of the…
