Re John Yoo's new book:
It is fair to say that Defender in Chief: Donald Trump’s Fight for Presidential Power is a book Yoo never thought he’d write. Fair because he says so himself, right up front: “If friends had told me on January 21, 2017, that I would write a book on Donald Trump as a defender of the Constitution, I would have questioned their sanity.”
But write one he has, and it is stellar.

Scott Adams did a piece on the role of luck for making a good life. It seemed as if he were implying that being born with darker skin than his was one item on his "bad luck" list.
I am not convinced of the latter, but most of "good luck" involves genetics in every sense, from appearance to IQ to illnesses to character traits and talents. A non-dysfunctional family and a decent middle-class upbringing are pretty good lucks too.
Do you view life as a series of opportunities knocking, or as a series of back lucks? I do the former.
Like many Americans, I probably could have taken my career further but, at a point, I was content. I enjoy viewing the Matterhorn, but feel no urge to climb it other than the normal macho impulse. I am glad that others do.

From The NYT:
Nearly 100,000 New York City voters received defective absentee ballots, election officials acknowledged on Tuesday, a massive glitch that raised doubts about the city’s ability to handle a pandemic-era presidential election with millions of mail-in ballots expected.
The problems were mostly confined to Brooklyn, where voters registered outrage and confusion after seeing that their ballots had mismatched names and addresses on the outer and inner mail-back envelopes.

"Amy Coney Barrett Deserves to Be on the Supreme Court. I disagree with Trump's judicial nominee on almost everything. But I still think she's brilliant. "
Via PC:
Many women will view Barrett as a regular suburban mom just like them. This is where Barrett’s biography is deadly to Democratic attack lines: small-town, middle America, Catholic, teacher, mother of seven, with two kids adopted from Haiti after a devasting hurricane and one kid with Down’s Syndrome. Demonizing any part of her biography inherently demonizes thousands of other women sharing that same trait or who will find nothing but goodness in Barrett’s biography.

With the new info on the Trump-Russia hoax, you have to believe what sounded like a wacky conspiracy theory in the past: FBI Suspected Primary Sub-Source for Steele Dossier was Russian Agent, ‘Threat to National Security’
In other words, people in the know knew it was BS, but used it anyway.
Trump-Russia was not just a routine political lie or hoax. It could be termed a coup-attempt. Scott explains: Coup Plotters Emerge .
I am just not paranoid enough to have believed all of this until now. This is one for the history books. As he says, Watergate was a peanut compared to this.
I wonder whether any of our readers ever believed Trump-Russia collusion.

A longish but not too technical read: Lies, Damned Lies and Health Statistics – the Deadly Danger of False Positives
Final quote:
I wish to note that in the last 40 years alone the UK has had seven official epidemics/pandemics; AIDS, Swine flu, CJD, SARS, MERS, Bird flu as well as annual, seasonal flu. All were very worrying but schools remained open and the NHS treated everybody and most of the population were unaffected. The country would rarely have been open if it had been shut down every time.
I have explained how a hopelessly-performing diagnostic test has been, and continues to be used, not for diagnosis of disease but, it seems, solely to create fear.
