No, There Isn’t Moral Equivalence
Between Communist China And The U.S.
by Ben Weingarten
{ thefederalist.com } ~ Just as trade negotiations between China and the United States may be reaching their crescendo... an outspoken ex-conservative has made an assertion about the People’s Republic of China (PRC) likely to warm the hearts of the leaders of the ruling Chinese Communist Party (CCP). Writing in the Washington Post on his desire for an “unapologetic atheist” to someday ascend to the White House, Max Boot says: There are too many examples of evil committed in the name of God to assume that people act morally because they are afraid of divine punishment. More likely, people are social animals who develop moral codes so they can live at peace with their neighbors. That’s why almost all societies, whether religious or not, have similar taboos against murder, robbery, rape and other sins. Most of China’s 1.4 billion people have no religious affiliation, and fewer than 7 percent are monotheists. Is there any reason to believe that China is a less moral place than the United States, where 70.6 percent profess to be Christians? Boot’s apparent attempt to draw moral equivalence between China and the United States would be news to the 1.4 billion Chinese citizens living in the world’s leading surveillance state—to the extent they are able to read his article behind the Great Firewall, and not one of the 1 to 2 million Uighurs currently imprisoned in “re-education camps” or countless others held captive for challenging the Party line. It would be news to members of the dissenting Chinese diaspora being tracked down and targeted by the Communist regime at every corner of the Earth. And it would be news to those peoples whose sovereignty is threatened by the CCP and the People’s Liberation Army that serves it—“it” being the Party, not the country....
A War Reporter Covers The End of Ice - And
It Will Change The Way You Think
About Climate Catastrophe
by Elise Swain
{ theintercept.com } ~ Focusing on breath and gratitude, Dahr Jamail’s latest book, “The End of Ice: Bearing Witness and Finding Meaning in the Path of Climate Disruption,” stitches together personal introspection and gut-wrenching interviews with leading climate experts... The rapidly receding glaciers of Denali National Park, home to the highest peak in North America, inspired the book’s title. “Seven years of climbing in Alaska had provided me with a front-row seat from where I could witness the dramatic impact of human-caused climate disruption,” Jamail writes. With vividly descriptive storytelling, Jamail pushes further north into the Arctic Circle where warming is occurring at double speed. He surveys rapid changes in the Pribilof Islands, where Indigenous communities have had to contend with die-offs affecting seabirds, fur seals, fish, and more — a collapsing food web. The story continues in the fragile Great Barrier Reef, utterly ravaged by the warming ocean. South Florida is faring no better: Jamail finds that 2.46 million of the state’s acreage will be submerged within his lifetime. Experts are aghast everywhere Jamail visits. In the Amazon, rich in biodiversity, the consequences are especially enormous.Describing the current state of the planet, Jamail likens it to someone in hospice care. The global mean temperature is already 1 degree Celsius above pre-industrial levels. Not half a decade ago, leading climate scientist James Hansen warned that that 1 degree would usher in a crisis of sea-level rise, melting Arctic ice, and extreme weather. He concluded that the goal of limiting global warming to only 2 degrees was “very dangerous.” Accelerated melting in the Arctic continues to surpass conservative predictions. Jamail reminds us that “as rapidly as global temperatures are increasing, so are temperature predictions. The conservative International Energy Agency has predicted a possible worst-case scenario of a 3.5°C increase by 2035.” Little has worked to inspire action. There is perhaps no better example of climate science being disregarded than a climate change denier being elected president of the United States. The threat of looming biosphere apocalypse is deeply troubling, panic-inducing, and this all-encompassing environmental, economic, and spiritual problem leaves one feeling helpless and grief-stricken. “The End of Ice” takes on the full weight of the catastrophe at hand. Jamail carries the reader’s emotional pain by acutely expressing his own... I disagree with Jamail's predictions and doesn't change the way I think. .

Spying, And 2020 Candidates
by thefederalist.com: On this episode of the Federalist Radio Hour, Senior Editors Mollie Hemingway and David Harsanyi address this week’s media obsessions... with scumbag-James Comey, William Barr, and how Congress is pushing on towar.d impeachment. They also talk tariffs, 2020 democratic candidates, and good social media habits. “Getting a warrant doesn’t mean you’re not spying. It doesn’t mean you’re not abusing your position to spy,” Harsanyi said.

Robotics Students Build Power Wheelchair
for Two-Year-Old
Culture Beat: “In need of a costly power wheelchair for their son, the parents of 2-year-old Cillian Jackson turned to an unlikely source. Teenagers. Thanks to the robotics team at Farmington High School, Cillian now has his ride — a functioning power wheelchair hand-built from a Power Wheels riding toy.”
“Cillian was born with a genetic condition that makes mobility difficult. ‘He has an especially hard time controlling his body. He has a lot of symptoms you’d see in someone who has cerebral palsy,’ said Tyler Jackson, Cillian’s father.”
“Tyler Jackson reached out to the robotics team at his former high school after he realized an actual power wheelchair would be cost prohibitive for his family and unlikely to be covered by insurance due to Cillian’s young age. ”
“Farmington robotics coach Spencer Elvebak says there was no hesitation by his students. ‘I brought it up to the kids at a meeting, Is this something we want to step up and do?’ Elvebak recalled. The sentiment was unanimous. Yes!”
