The Last Hope Of The West & The Fertility Whitepill
As fertility declines in the US & Europe, it is only the conservative Heartland Culture that wants to preserve Western Civilization – and is also reproducing in sufficient numbers to do so.

On a national basis engineering & math have been doing a much better job of holding the line than most majors
However, something uniquely bad is going on in California & the first graduates of the new system should just now be hitting. Also, Covid in high school - double trouble
Do you have evidence about the engineers? From the grade distributions I've seen engineering and math are fields that are holding the line a lot more than others.

As I understand it, the Ivies dropped SATs in the quest for 70% diversity, but they still retained some standards like high school quality & performance. California is going well beyond that, and flooding the system with people from the worst high schools. Academic Armaggeddon

The UC profs see what is a happening: a rapid meltdown that will destroy their credibility & prestige. Unfortunately, the California legislature has other priorities.
UC-Berkeley - the university that graduates "engineers" that can't do simple fractions. Coming at you fast.
Another Berkeley professor told the author:
“In my second-year engineering class, a student asked me to explain why 1/2 1/3 = 5/6…. The lecture had to stop while I explained fractions.”

We currently have 28 Red States, 18 Blue States, 4 Purple states (split state legislatures). All we need to is pick up the Purples & 2 Blue states through ending voter fraud, that's 34 states and our side wins.
Why the RINOs fight to keep that from happening is the question.

Curtis the Monarchist is correct, Congress is the ultimate power. They have not just the power of purse but the power to remove Presidents & judges at any time.
A Red 2/3 Senate & bare majority House could remove every federal judge - this was the intent of the Constitution.

Let me sharpen this point.
The point is: if Trump, or you, or me, had absolute control of Congress, we would have absolute sovereignty.
Whether the Congressmen we have now are free agents, or lackeys of some higher power (corporations, Jews, UFOs, etc) is beside the point

With 67 Senators and 218 Representatives, the power of the federal judiciary can be utterly broken. Any judge or Supreme Court judge can be removed at any time - as could the President or VP. The federal govt can be downsized at any time, civil service, decimated. No appeal.

Just like Canada. What an amazing coincidence!

In Norway over the past couple of decades, the more “anti-American” our politics are, the more American we become.
“Norwegian values” translate to “anti-Amercianism”, which is nothing but a core tenet of Anglo-American gay race communism.

This is for Syracuse University, and it's not good for colleges in general. Schools go through a complex process when extending offers of admission & financial aid to students, based on their estimated "yield": the percent who will accept offers.
Syracuse got both sides wrong

Offering the discounts wasn’t enough to attract a full class, and those who enrolled will be paying less the whole time they’re there.
“What students were telling us effectively was that they didn't believe what we were offering was worth what we were asking them today.”

Syracuse thought materially more people would accept offers than did, so they are "under-enrolled". Classes will be smaller, less tuition money to pay staff & faculty.
Worse, those who did accept were those who were offered the biggest grants, meaning also less tuition.

Both mistakes are locked in for the next four years. There will be a lot more of this in the coming years, as universities compete for a shrinking pool of students. And yes, the universities richly deserve what is coming for them.

When thinking about future relations with the Gulf states, keep in mind they have a violent, angry neighbor that can mass produce ballistic missiles, and at this point anyway, the only missile defenses come from being friends with (and paying) the US. Important detail.
Only China can enable mass drone warfare, at least so far. Only the US can keep a hail of missiles from raining down on cities of other nations from long distances, at least so far.
Game on, this is going to be interesting.

It's fascinating to think through how global supply chains intersect with the new wars of mass drones, missiles & interceptors. There are only two countries that actually matter at this point: China & the US. To fight a new war, requires the help of one or both. The rest of the

When we look at the combination, Ukraine (and Europe) only survive because of the US defense industry and Chinese technology exports. In a world of mass drones, missiles & interceptors, they can't compete on any level without outside help. They plan to make the situation

I should note that the Israeli, Taiwanese & SK interceptor programs are all derivative of shared US technology, and at least in Israel's case, US components in every interceptor as well.
