The Morning Report – Tuesday July 12, 2022
The incomparable J.J. Sefton is working on his cross-country move (I think today is just about when he realizes he needs a lot more boxes, but he also realizes there is no place to put any more boxes) so with me pinch-hitting you get another opportunity to appreciate just how amazing his morning link-foo is.
I wanted to post a link to an update on the Supreme Court leaker, but I can’t find one - that story seems to have died. Here is what I am starting to think, and it may sound a little tinfoil-hat-ish, but nothing would surprise me about the corruption of our government. I believe that all the Supreme Court justices know exactly who the leaker is, but they have been instructed to remain silent during “the investigation.” If the name of the leaker is leaked, that would suddenly be the scandal that interests the media, because a (presumably conservative) justice or his staff had “interfered with an investigation.” If the leak of the leaker’s name were tied to a conservative justice, there would be howls for impeachment, because our “our democracy is at stake.” On to some links: Governor Greg Abbot’s awful stewardship of Texas energy is starting to approach dereliction of duty. Millions Of Texans Could Lose Power In Rolling Blackouts Amid Record Heat [Forbes – 7/11/2022]The Electric Reliability Council of Texas asked residents and businesses to voluntarily turn up the thermostat and conserve energy from 2 p.m. to 8 p.m. on Monday to help preserve the power grid. ERCOT said no system-wide outages are expected, but did warn of potential rolling blackouts for its more than 26 million customers.
Marie Antoinette, the beheaded wife of the beheaded French Bourbon King Charles Louis XVI, did not really say “Let them cake.” But in the short time that the French Revolution became utterly unhinged, toxic, and nihilistic, she became nonetheless iconic as an out-of-touch elite who had lived in a make-believe world at Versailles, without a clue (or care?) about the ordeal of the masses.
A Japanese court ruled Monday that the country's ban on same-sex marriage does not violate the constitution, and rejected demands for compensation by three couples who said their right to free union and equality has been violated.
U.S. Attorney General Merrick Garland could face impeachment proceedings over the Department of Justice’s failure to enforce a federal statute that prevents picketing or parading outside of Supreme Court Justices’ homes, should Republicans take the majority in the House of Representatives in the midterm elections.

Also interesting, it is almost inconceivable that the White House would not have switched to Republican control after four (4) consecutive terms with a Democrat, even a beloved figure like FDR.
"Dewey defeats Truman" said the headlines. Anyone ever make a deep dive into any jiggery-pokery in the '48 election? Would not surprise me. Americans would have made a switch, just on historical patterns alone.

But Norma Shearer was such a likeable Marie Antoinette! Kidding aside, this encapsulates not only Europe, but America now...more than ever. They all live in a make-believe world where everything they want is aplenty. They are awash in wealth, expensive dinner parties, mansions, privileges and have removed the pain of their own policies by purposefully exempting themselves from their laws for the peasants. It will now start to really amplify as they turn the vice grip on food production and energy in order to institute their global warming scam. It's already happening and it's breathtaking to witness. My wish is that they pay a very heavy price for their arrogance.

I am not a fan of Son of Santa Anna, especially over his reaction to the C19 scam allowing the cities and counties to run roughshod over our Rights. That has been litigated here many times.
The real problem with the grid is FERC, George W and Rick Perry (who ironically became Energy Secretary under Trump). The Texas governor ship is a weak one and Congress ultimately is responsible, but the encouraging and advancing the construction of unreliables, changing the laws to cripple ERCOTs ability to manage, not implementing a capacity market, and letting cities like Dallas, Austin and Houston side with the EPA to bully the energy producers and legislators into shutting down the coal power plants.
There is a lot of people to blame for destroying a reliable and inexpensive power grid. ERCOT's mismanagement and corruption of it, and their indifference to the plight of rate payers is largely a reason I moved out of ERCOT and into SPP (yet stay in Texas).

While I am second to none in my disdain for the concept of "industrial scale" "renewable" energy, I believe this move was started under Perry. Frankly, with the inability to build nuclear and with Obama promising to bankrupt any company which used fossil fuels, beginning with coal, it seemed like a "reasonable" test bed.
Texas gets lots of sun. Whoever sold them on wind, however, was a charlatan. When it gets really hot, the wind stops blowing.
Now, having discovered that the great Gaia energy panacea is a lie, you must recover from that. Doing so is not immediate. While it's fun to dump on Abbott, is it true that no actions are being taken to address the situation in a reliable manner? I honestly don't know the answer to that.

A couple decades ago I added a putting green to my property. It was then, and is to this day, a pain in the ass to maintain. In the second year of its existence I decided to apply some Milorganite as fertilizer. No flies, but Holy Hell did it smell bad. My wife wouldn't go near it for weeks. But it really made the bentgrass happy.
I think Milorganite is from some Illinois sewer plant. It *still* requires some level of energy to bake out any nasty germs.

I'll keep saying it - their idea of forced scarcity wasn't to fail everything. They thought a little nudge was all that was needed, and the markets and masses would innovate and figure it out. Because they are absolutely and completely clueless about how all this works.
For example - did they think these policies would lead to higher energy prices ? Yes they did, and those increases were necessary motivation. Did they think it would lead to shortages and blackouts ? No, they did not.
Our leadership are fools, because our population is largely fools. Nothing more.

You can thank your Fe'ral Government for the inescapable transformation to third word energy.
EPA declared by fiat that states must be under a particular PM2.5 and PM10 level, and the communist mayors of the Texas' blue cities demanded many coal plants shut because they claimed that smoke from those plants would somehow effect the city's rating - so the plants had to shut down.
Then the Fe'rals offered tons of money and advantages to unreliable energy sources that displaced reliable thermals. They took tax dollars and made wind/solar cheaper, removed any requirement for reliability, and priced the thermals out via auction market and "carbon credits".
ESG scoring systems, Carbon Credits, arbitrary EPA demands, propaganda campaigns, corrupt politicians, profoundly stupid public, NIMBY and lack of water (to cool the thermals) all add up to where we are.

That reminds me of a story from the Alfred Hitchcock picture Lifeboat, one of whose stars was omnisexual Tallulah Bankhead.
In order to reach the 'lifeboat,' actors were required to climb a long ladder attached to the side of a water tank. Bankhead, as was her custom, didn't wear underwear, and so, as you can imagine, the crowd gathered around the tank to watch her ascend grew larger and larger every day.
At last, a producer asked Hitch to deal with the situation. He replied, "I would like to, but I don't know which department I should consult - costumes or hairdressing."

Meanwhile, while this spending has made those power sources one fifth of the stated power generation capacity, over the past week, and also during the freeze, wind has only provided about 2% of the power generated. Natural gas has boosted to provide the difference with reliable power.

Ugh. True enough. When I moved, I used two staging areas. One end of my long, narrow living room was for junk to be gotten rid of; the other was for boxes and furniture as they were packed and prepped. The overflow went into the kitchen and my bedroom until the junk haulers could remove a truly staggering amount of crap from my place.
Even in a small apartment, 10 years is more than enough time to, in combination with challenging disposal of things, have a shocking accumulation of stuff you neither want nor care about.

2. It's time to move on.
3. It would be unprecedented and setting new precedent isn't who we are.
4. The appointments of cabinet heads is the President's prerogative and so impeaching a cabinet minister would be philosophical - if not technical - violation of the separation powers. We may not like it, but the president chooses his staff and our job is to approve those choices.
5. We took the Congress on a fairly thin mandate in a highly polarized environment. We have more important things to do than attack Garland, especially after we kept him off the Court.
Any of those five, and probably in several in combination, will be used.

It's possible. Just like how it's possible that most people think the country is sliding down into disaster but the hypothetical contest margins are razor thin. It doesn't make sense, but it's fairly easy to understand.
"I hate Joe Biden. I think Joe Biden is a bad president and that this country is on the wrong track. Life is hard under Joe Biden. Joe Biden is not a good choice for the office. Despite all of this, if the contest is Joe Biden vs. Donald Trump, I will vote for Biden anyway. No matter how bad Joe is, Trump is unconscionable and if being rid Trump means we have to make do with a bad choice, then so be it."
Those people are out there. Are there enough of them to make those poll results reasonable? I dunno. Probably not. But they are out there, and there aren't just a few of them.

If I ever have to move again (here's hoping not - I chose my current place based on long-term planning), I will do the plastic tub thing for a lot of it. They're expensive, but they also have resale value and are very sturdy. I'll have some (let's face it - I'll have many) cardboard boxes, too, but the tubs are going to make a significant showing. The right ones also stack really well and strongly. I can see a ton of benefits to using them. The downside, of course, is the bill.

There are three things wrong with the entire story:

2. There was no evidence provided beyond the story itself
3. A pregnant 10 year-old is, with virtual certainty, evidence of a heinous crime and abortion questions are quite secondary - yet nobody in the political or press spheres discussed that fairly important angle
If the story was true, it's a serious criminal problem that they ignored and if the story was false, they were spreading rumors and fake news to make a political point. In either case, they are using an abused little girl - real or imagined - as a political football. There is no way for this story to end well for those who spread it.

And why can't we blame the "conservative" and libertarian Mayor Dale Ross of the city of Georgetown Texas, who became a media darling:
"We've got an endless supply of wind and sun," the mayor said on the blog. "I'll take that bet over fossil fuels, any day of the week."
And then after signing a thirty year deal to get power from a solar energy provider, pledged to make the city 100% unreliable the following year.
Now Georgetown has the most expensive and least reliable energy because boasting 100% renewables is a bet the mayor wanted to take with other people's lives.

Not an acceptable answer. They don't have to disclose her name to pound the table about it. "That this young girl had to travel to another state to receive an abortion is a serious problem caused by the Supreme Court's destruction of precedent in a bold and political escalation and that has to be dealt with and we are proposing {law X} to handle this problem, but we also call on the Ohio State Police to investigate this matter thoroughly to make sure that the sexual predator is identified and prosecuted."
That's all it would take. They didn't.

I keep going back to where we are in America today. We're a very soft, very coddled Ameria whose indulgences extend not too far past which iPhone to buy next, or what pronouns to be called.
The only variable in my mind is wondering just what such a pampered citizenry will do when their cushioned existences are taken away from them. We've had it better than any population in the history of mankind. How will we react when the inevitable SHTF? That I can't predict.

I disagree. The pain from "misgendering" may very well be real to the person experiencing it. That doesn't make the pain rational, and it doesn't mean that normal people should be constrained to prevent the irrational and mentally-ill person any psychological pain, but they may well feel it.
And the answer is not to amplify and support their mental illness, but to help them seek treatment if they wish to.

I wonder if Hillary really believes that Trump was compromised by the Russians like she is with the Chinese, otherwise how could he possibly have defeated the great and wonderful Hillary! Make up some fake stuff and get the FBI/CIA to investigate and they would have found the real stuff eventually. Seems plausible but it is also clear she was compromised by the Russians in addition to the Chinese.
I think the only conclusion is that Trump was one of the very few in power NOT compromised by any foreign power. We should just assume that all of leadership for both parties is being paid by China to screw us over and they need to prove otherwise. Saves time.

Reagan pulled 52% against Carter's 41.5%. Anderson took the remaining 6.5%, and I've always thought most of that came from Carter voters.
So even back then, when everyone was supposedly so much more saner and America was just generally better, about 45% of the country said "Hell yeah, give us four more of Jimmy". Folks, we have a real good understanding here of why people should hate Democrats. And a real case of denial regarding how bad they hate Republicans.

Laying pipe and local energy generation of the nat gas that eventually gets flared off has become difficult to do from a regulatory standpoint.
Remember the excuse of the February 2021 freeze out? Part of it was due to the Fe'ral government demanding that nat gas pumps only be grid electric powered. Can't have Genorac convert the Nat Gas that is Right There into useable power.

Listen, this is patently unfair. We advise and offer theoretical solutions to problems. Anyone who takes our advice is a free agent. We did not cause this "mess," nor are we "up to our eyeballs" in it. We offered advice to the Sri Lankan government, advice that government partially implemented. The problems in Sri Lanka are not due to the advice, but to its implementation and secondary factors within the political reality of that country. We have zero culpability for any problems there.
We have removed the content from our sites only because the incomplete and poorly-executed implementation of general, broad-spectrum advice will serve as a distraction from our core mission of advancing the economic and human conditions worldwide. This is a side show caused by local incompetence and we want to maintain focus on our primary goals.

Yeah it's amazing. They put up windmills without considering high pressure domes in summer tend to stay put for extended periods, produce little wind and scads of heat, and low pressure systems in winter make lots of wind (often too much), until they don't, but also scads of ice and cold.
So just when your load spikes the windmills aren't there, and as windmills aren't reliable enough for base load you basically need 100% back up capacity for every windmill put into service.

There's not going to be too much guerilla stuff in the areas Russia is looking to take and Ukraine isn't being provided equipment needed to breakthrough(tanks needed mostly). Lots of briefly trained infantry(which is what Ukraine has) can slow things down a lot or be a real hassle if Russia went into urban areas, but the Russians are just shelling them. Ukrainians can't reach the artillery.

As the engine fires up, steam comes from the exhaust, and when the plane is catapulted from the deck, we see water streaming out from the seams in the rusting bodywork.

If the Ukrainians can take out the tanks with hand held missiles, that's step one. They then blow up every stinking road and bridge leading back to Russia and let the remaining Ruskies starve to death or search for food in the rubble of the buildings they shot up.

The Ukrainians aren't going to be successful marching tens of miles under continuous shelling to just see the mobile artillery back up a bit. Only time they get a shot at tanks is when the Russians are advancing into the Ukrainian defensive lines.

The White House Propagandists have a talking point dodge for everything. With Joe at the top, they will never admit fault or failure. Everything anyone complains about, or polls badly for them, is the fault of the Kulaks and the Wreckers and Breakers. Eventually this continuous crap gets old, then ridiculed by enough of the press and Dem operatives to make it counterproductive. The Junta doesn't have an NKVD and KGB to enforce public "right-think." Not yet.

I certainly wouldn't discount the notion that Putin made a bad (or at least suboptimal) play in Ukraine. I also certainly wouldn't subscribe to the notion that he's an idiot or will lose the war.
I'm also confused by the rhetoric on the point. All the same people (on the Left and "Right") who are telling us we must get more and more involved in this war are also telling us Zelensky and his 120" cock are horsefucking Russia back to the Stone Age.

As an interesting proof of this - the 50s were an enormous period of growth in Europe and the US after losing all those men in WWII
It seems the Euros handled this by just accepting successful married men would have a mistress as well.

The problem is that ERCOT (the regulator) is mandated to buy power from the lowest bidder without regard to their capability to deliver that power, uninterrupted, for months on end. This drives stranded, coal-fired plants out of business. There isn't enough power when the wind doesn't blow and/or the sun doesn't shine.
