One of the reasons why both antisemitism and the violence of the left continue unabated is the complete lack on incentive to stop doing these things.

As long as laws are not enforced, except against those who fight against such things , they will continue.

In a famous scene in the John Wayne movie True Grit this is illustrated

Society has had enough of the “let him be” and I fear that unless things change quickly citizens themselves will decide to apply the alternate as the norm.


The distinct difference between this stuff happening in areas controlled by the left and places controlled by the right is striking, but not as striking as the number of leftist willing to tolerate all this crap for the sake of fitting in with the right people.

It’s always amazed me how so many people willingly choose hell over heaven but my amazement to that pales before the number willing to choose hell on earth.


I hear Elon Musk is getting ready to start his own university.

This is a smart idea, given what being taught at colleges these day and the attempt to view even math and science through the lens of DEI rather than objective fact it would seem there would be a market for a school that actually you know teaches real skills.

Idiocracy was not a how to guide, but our colleges are lurching toward it.


The degree that all things have become one big grift is really something and the speed that this had taken place has been really something too.

But like most things that are unsustainable they tend to collapse, first slowly then very very quickly.

Don’t Worry, as Cardinal George told you there will be someone to pick up the pieces and start again.


Finally a quick word on the death of Mr. Hoge.

He lived a long useful life and because of this and his abiding honesty bad people tried to make trouble for him.

They not only failed but he mocked them ruthlessly on a regular basis for the rest of his life to make sure they knew he failed, this is what happens when you have someone who has brains in places where most people don’t have places and faith to go along with it.

His tweets were a joy, his post were deep, particular those involving space but having him as a friend was the real treasure.

He gave me the black fedora I have as a gift. Every time I put in on for the rest of my life I will remember him. That’s a better gift that the hat itself.

Everyone dies, my suggestion is to try and live as good as he did.
