Turns out Ron DeSantis is Matt Gaetz’s creature.

I never knew college courses for would-be lawyers contained a morality clause.
I assume that was to account for my senior seminar on Reason and Revelation. Concluding Unscientific Postscript to Philosophical Fragments by Johannes de Climacus changed my life. Briefly.

Johannes de Climacus is Danish for "John Shade. "   Fact.  Er,  subjective truth.
That makes sense. Soren Kierkegaard is Danish for Charle Kinbote. Or Vasily Botkin. One of the two. And Denmark is an inenubilable distant northern land.

And, of course, there is no requirement that a legislator have a college degree.
Try to get elected without one.

Too late.

Too late for me, too.

But it worked for Tulsi Gabbard! Patrick Kennedy, too.

Jewel Jones seems to be managing his college career just fine, while a legislator.

At least 7 states currently have legislators who had not finished a bachelor's degree prior to their election.

And 22 Members of the US House of Representatives have no educational degree beyond a high school diploma or GED, while 5 Members of the House have associate’s degrees as their highest degrees.

IOW, they tried getting elected without one and succeeded.

Great news!

American military planners want to base a stockpile defence equipment and munitions at bases in the Top End as well as manufacturing US-designed ballistic missiles here, The Australian reports.
Acting US ­ambassador to Australia Mike Goldman said the closer links "just makes sense" in light of the "new geostrategic context" in the Asia Pacific region.


#####

It certainly does make sense, especially as China has stated it is going to start a war...and is persecuting Australia with harsh trade sanctions.

Al-Qaeda wouldn’t be intimidated either and they also had guns.

Send in the drones.
