Thursday Flotsam and Jetsam

Miscellaneous thoughts and observations.

Donald Trump signed an Executive Order rescinding Lyndon Johnson's EO 1246 creating affirmative action. Combined with the Supreme Court's Bakke decision - this should be the final nail in the coffin of affirmative action and the death knell of DEI... When it comes to pardoning all the Jan 6th protesters, not just the ones not charged with violent crimes, in view of all the evidence coming out about government corruption in the DOJ - what ever happened to the liberal tenant of better for dozens of guilty men to go free than one innocent man be imprisoned?... Barron Trump has surely done the math and I wondering if he was thinking of getting the US to Mars as one of his first presidential planks in 2036. Here he's probably realizing Elon Musk is sure to get that done by then... Our long national nightmare is over as New England brings Josh McDaniels back as OC. Many never realized how good they had it when he was still here last time around... Keep in mind that the Alex Berenson vs Joe Biden, et Al lawsuit over Berensen being censored over trying to expose Covid misdeeds has not been settled. Despite his pardon Antony Fauci is included in this lawsuit and most likely be deposed or have to testify. If he lies under oath he will be liable because it would be a new crime. That lawsuit included the now former Surgeon General and Pfizer too... Big fan of Javier Milei. Wouldn’t be surprised if one of Trump's first foreign agreements is a reciprocal Free Trade deal with Argentina. Also wouldn't be surprised if Argentina benefited greatly in a sharp rise in tourism from the US... Book idea: the US military installs small form nuclear power reactors on each military base but AI companies also build data centers nearby to take advantage of cheap mostly abundant power. A foreign power gains controls of this AI and is able to use it to take over or shut down the military. Scary!... Learn something new every day... Ichiro came one vote short of unanimous selection to the Baseball Hall of Fame Tuesday. Every time I saw Ichiro I knew I was looking at a future Hall of Famer. The one voter who did not vote for him has not come forward but you know he probably has his "look at me" justification article already written but is waiting to gauge the backlash to his cowardly action.... Donald Trump also appointed Brendan Carr as the new head of the FCC. This was an appointed position and does not need approval from Congress. The move was expected but with the removal of DEI makes a big difference... Agree 100%... Pride, Vigor and Achievement would make a great high school yearbook quote or a name for a Substack or X account about good news... Ichiro joins CC Sabathia, and Billy Wagner in induction next year to Cooperstown. Like I said agree with Sabathia's election but these are the facts...
