It’s been a long but productive week for yours portly. Readers will notice that, other than my recent #TBT features (yesterday and last Thursday’s posts), I’ve been mostly silent on the impeachment circus. My general policy in this age of media perfidy is to withhold comment until the real facts have been reported.
The way everything is shaping up, my gut instincts—that there is nothing to claims that President Trump has committed impeachable offenses, defined constitutionally as “high crimes and misdemeanors”—seem validated. Of course, that won’t stop the Democrats from expending months of energy, treasure, and rhetoric on banging the drum of impeachment.
In general, I’ve been trying to expand the focus of the blog, moving away from strictly writing about politics and politics-adjacent issues to more general interest topics. My little piece on Saturn from a few weeks ago was enjoyable to write, and seemed to garner some positive feedback.
As such, I was excited to see that today marks the beginning of World Space Week.
