HAH! The Democrats have the perfect presidential candidate....

THE SOLUTION TO A TERRORIST WITH A GUN is a man with ... courage.

HE'S JUST A CREEP: Neil deGrasse Tyson cleared of sexual misconduct by National Geographic’s internal investigation.

And a lousy scientist.

YOU GOT HUMILIATED ONCE, JEB. Are you going to try again?

SPRING LIVES: part I of a series.

I'm starting my annual "Spring is springing" series of photos showing the greening of the neighborhood. This first picture is from the back deck looking down the hill to the pond. There is some small evidence of budding out in the trees, but the real sign of spring is that the shrubs have begun to bud -- and even flower. Unfortunately they don't show in this picture.

The next picture is the pond, looking back toward our house. The pond surface is mirror-like, and the sky absolutely deep-blue gorgeous. The cell phone camera just doesn't have the dynamic range to capture the brilliance.

The last picture is of the house, taken from just down the hill. It's easily visible today, but by the time the forest has fully leafed out, it will just barely be visible. (Well, maybe not - we've had a number of trees fall over the winter, and we'll have to have several more leaners taken down in the near future.)

Next week I'll continue the series, maybe moving around a little as I search for spots (and times) when the camera isn't looking more or less directly into the southern sun.

WHAT? WE DON'T SEND THEM OUR BEST TREES? The folly of “green” energy, part MCVII.

It appears that the United Kingdom has a CO2 shortage....

IGNORANCE IS BLISS, unless you're a Democrat.

IF IT WEREN'T FOR AIRPORTS, CNN's viewership would be zero. I'm not surprised. Whenever we go out to some place that has televisions spread around the walls, they're always tuned to sports, Fox News, or - surprise! - MSNBC.

I AGREE. Aggressive stupidity should be a criminal offense.

ELECTION 2020: the campaign has begun.

HEH: 'Vegan' is just a polite word for eating disorder. Read the whole thing.

If she stays on a 'meat only' diet for a few more years, perhaps she'll have achieved a balanced diet....

I USED TO LIKE NEW MEXICO: New Mexico state Senate votes to replace Columbus Day with Indigenous Peoples’ Day.

No longer. If Mexico wants it back, I'll even throw in Beto's El Paso to sweeten the deal.

THOMAS SOWELL: the dangers of the social justice vision.

Despite how persuasive the words of John Rawls and other ‘social justice’ advocates may be in the world of words, demonstrated facts in the world of reality raise the crucial question as to whether the redistribution of income or wealth can actually be done, in any comprehensive and sustainable sense. Where, instead, there is simply a humanitarian desire to see the less fortunate have better prospects for a better life, the ‘social justice’ argument is both unnecessary and an impediment to joining forces toward that end with others who do not happen to share the implicit assumption of that particular social vision.

Buy his book. Read it.

ALEXANDRIA OCASIO-CORTEZ, this is the real world.

WHEN YOU DROP FOOD ON THE FLOOR, please pick it up and eat it. You'll be healthier if you do.

LISA PAGE: DOJ told FBI not to charge Hillary Clinton.

Doug Collins is my Congresscritter here in Georgia. As the Ranking Member of the House Judiciary Committee, he's proving to be very good. I'll have no problem voting for him again.
