Faith-based weather broadcasting
Dec 24, 2025 6:41 PM

Via Drudge, the Weather Channel “Climate Expert” is taking serious flack (check ments) for her call to pull the credentials of any media meteorologist who doesn’t endorse the theory of human-caused global warming. The cover provided by her boss doesn’t garner any more favorable feedback.

I think people want more science from scientists and less dogma. I know I do.

UPDATE: On the other hand, this seems a little over the top.

If forecasters can’t reliably tell us what will happen in two to three months from now, why would anyone trust that they know what will happen with the weather in 50 or 100 years from now and let them tell us how to live our lives accordingly? This is all about Big Brother do-gooders trying to control how you live your life, and stripping away the freedoms and liberties of people to live their lives as they see fit, engage merce and raise their families.

The truth is probably someplace in between.

UPDATE: Sorry, the cartoon is doing something funny with the format. Link is here.

UPDATE: Lots more here.

Fake friends: the dangers of the internet mob
In his memoir,Defying Hitler, Sebastian Haffner reflects on the social climate that characterized Nazi Germany. In particular, he describes how “[the Nazis had] made all Germans everywhere rades.” Author David Rieff explains why Haffner saw this as “a moral catastrophe”: This emphatically was not radeship was never a good thing. To the contrary … it was a great and fort and help for people who had to live under unbearable, inhuman conditions, above all in war. But Haffner was equally...
Acton Line podcast: Critiquing the 1619 Project with Phil Magness
Since debuting in the New York Times Magazine on August 14, 2019, the 1619 Project has ignited a debate about American history, the founding of the country and the legacy emanating from the nation’s history with chattel slavery. The project’s creator and editor, Nikole Hannah-Jones, has described the project as seeking to place “the consequences of slavery and the contributions of black Americans at the very center of our national narrative.” Components of a related school curriculum have been adopted...
6 quotes: Milton Friedman on woke capitalism, racism, and equality

His work in pioneering monetary theory at the University of Chicago would win him the Nobel Prize for Economic Sciences in 1976 and popularize a new school of free-market economics, “The Chicago School.” He went on to advise a host of political leaders around the world, including President Ronald Reagan and UK Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher.

What’s behind the Beirut explosion? Corruption ‘greater than the state’
On Monday, the Lebanese government resigned. Public pressure on the government had been relentless in the wake of two devastating explosions on the afternoon of August 4 at the port in the nation’s capital city, Beirut. The explosions caused at least 220 deaths, 7,000 injuries, billions in property damage, and have left hundreds of thousands homeless. These explosions were caused by the ignition of 2,750 tons of ammonium nitrate stored in an unsecured warehouse at Beirut’s cargo port. The ammonium...
Why do we embrace ‘cancel culture’?
Online disagreements, and even unintended slips, can end a person’s career. One stray word is all it takes to turn a hero into a pariah. What lies behind the hair-trigger we have placed on the reflex to “cancel” others? It may be a matter of confusing two separate moral codes. Several economists, including Paul Heyne, Geoffrey Lea, and Kenneth Boulding, have made the distinction between two codes of conduct. On one hand, we have the code of “Micro” relationships between...

Cuba loosens restrictions on private businesses to battle COVID-19
Over the past decade, Cuba’s private sector has experienced slow-but-steady growth thanks to a mix of entrepreneurial grit and incremental policy changes. Although the Communist government continues to waffle on the scope and duration of various restrictions, the number of self-employed Cubans has risen from 150,000 to 600,000 since 2010 – that is, until the outbreak of the global health pandemic. COVID-19 has brought new challenges to the Cuban economy. Declines in travel and tourism have meant merce and less...
Population bust fueled COVID-19 spread: Study
The onslaught of the coronavirus global pandemic suspended the normal working of the economy, but it proved two less-noted truths: The family affects everything, including the economy; and a rising population saves lives. A recent study found that the number of deaths caused by COVID-19 would have been lower if society “had maintained the patterns of fertility, nuptiality, marital stability, and household structure that existed in 1976.” Had population trends held steady, COVID-19 deaths would have been lower as a...
