Nice tag from a short but very illuminating piece by John Ganz on Trump's dependency on the deplorables -- not a layer of society, but the dregs of every layer

India has released the preliminary report into the crash of Air India 171. One of the pilots apparently shut off fuel to the engines seconds after takeoff so it couldn't climb. The other pilot noticed & the fuel was switched back on, but it was too late.
Accident, or pilot suicide?

With TSLA shares cratering, how much longer will journalists be obliged to refer to Elon Musk as the "World's Richest Man"?
Back of the envelope calculation shows that if Tesla shares fall below $217, he'll fall to #2.
TSLA closed today at 222, down 40 points, so tomorrow could be the day.

Lots of folks following the #MH370 mystery have been watching the track of the search vessel on Kevin Rupp's Facebook page

It had been heading back to the search area after a break. Unfortunately, the latest data shows it following a new course towards Cape Town.

Pretty astonishing piece by Tina Brown on her Substack, about the siren's lure of the private jet & its corrupting influence.
Very of the moment, & a story told by someone who's in a position to know.

One of the many puzzling mysteries of MH370 is how it got into such a strange electrical configuration. Would a 777 captain know how to do this? Would he want to do it?
I asked veteran 777 pilot Juan Browne. For the whole video, to to www.deepdivemh370.com/p/juan-brown...

Russia shot down an Azerbaijan airliner yesterday. American media seem weirdly intent on softpedaling that.
WaPo and NYT headlines claim investigators are baffled. NYT's story cites a single source that plane had 'been struck by Russian air defenses' but also cites false claim about fog.

German media report that Taleb Abdul, the Saudi Arabian immigrant who plowed his car into a Christmas market killing 2 & injuring many, was a fan of Elon Musk, Alex Jones, and Tommy Robinson: "what each of them, who the mainstream media describes as radical or extreme right, say is the truth."
