  • California Exodus Refuted?

    George Rebane A reader and correspondent sent me the following article – ‘A Shocking Number of Californians Are Moving to Texas Unless You Do Basic Math’.  Therein the author cites data and analysis from a market data firm Placer.ai which sidesteps the long-running and well-established California exodus phenomenon, focuses on the California-to-Texas migration, and erroneously…

  • ‘There Is No Climate Emergency’

    George Rebane Similar to the subsequently corroborated Great Barrington Declaration on Covid (here), a new declaration on climate change was released in June 2022 entitled ‘World Climate Declaration: There Is No Climate Emergency’.  This declaration is signed by hundreds of scientists and thousands of technical professionals from almost every country in the world (here). In…

  • Need I be fearful of most black people?

    George Rebane My clear answer is yes – let me explain.  Yes, I am physically afraid of blacks in the urban neighborhoods.  They have demonstrated to all that there is inherent danger to life and limb in neighborhoods where blacks rule the streets.  This same sentiment has been publicly acknowledged by black leaders such as…

  • The Democrats’ evil is professionally inbred

    [This piece came across my email transom forwarded by a lawyer who apologized for his profession and how it confuses litigation with governance.  gjr] Every Democrat presidential nominee since 1984 went to law school (although Gore did not graduate – Biden (no surprise) was at the bottom of his class).  Every Democrat vice presidential nominee since…

  • Double Dummies on Daily Display (updated 24aug22)

    George Rebane This is really a critique of the American electorate, and how low it has sunk in its capacity to discern and vote for political leaders sufficiently competent and principled to maintain our republic as the world's shining city on the hill – “A republic, if you can keep it.” B. Franklin. I am…

  • The ‘Party of Science’ aka Idiot’s Delight (Addended)

    George Rebane Well, the cat is finally clawing its way out of the bag, bit by piece.  The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is beginning to admit that it has completely mismanaged the major pandemic of the 21st century.  As numerous observers, analysts, and scientists have repeatedly pointed out over the last four…

  • Scattershots – 18aug22 (update 21aug22)

    George Rebane Dear People, we are back from our travels and almost recovered.  Driving endless miles across the country's western deserts and highlands is not recommended for maintaining mental health.  Besides, being on travel is greatly over-promoted.  But everything worked out well; Jo Ann’s new van performed beautifully, and we had a great time with…

  • Sandbox – 14aug22

    [Been on travel the past week with connectivity a sometime thing.  Will be home soon, so everyone try to keep a lid on it until then.  Anyone know who is the foul-mouthed jerk ‘Donny Jr’?  gjr]

  • FBI raids Trump’s Mar-a-Lago Residence

    COMEY: “Although we don’t normally make public our recommendations to the prosecutors, we frequently make recommendations and engage in productive conversations with prosecutors about what resolution may be appropriate, given the evidence. In this case, given the importance of the matter, I think unusual transparency is in order. Although there is evidence of potential violations…

  • Lowest Rung Problem with No Good Solutions

    George Rebane To solve a problem, first you need to correctly define it. The 1aug22 WSJ had an entire section that examined ‘Why Black and Hispanic Workers Get Stuck on the Lowest Rung’.  In these pages we have covered related aspects of this issue over the years.  Last year noted scholar and political scientist Charles…
