Apparently Democrats Want a 2nd Impeachment Trial in the Senate

 Democrat leaders apparently want a second impeachment trial in the Senate. Dissatisfied with the House impeachment they feel a desire to have another one with witnesses, depositions and testimony in the Senate. That isn't the way it's supposed to work. Witnesses should only be called after the prosecution and defense have made their cases, if the Senate needs more input or data for clarification.

The streamlined version of a constitutional impeachment process is for the House to have what amounts to a trial and the Senate acting as a jury to decide the verdict to convict the President of impeachment. When the House chooses to impeach a President it has made a material finding with a higher standard than that of a Grand Jury. It has in effect had a trial and rendered a verdict. The Senate is supposed to convict or acquit the Democrat's finding.  Democrats want to jury rig the Senate's deliberation process and make another trial of it, and that is wrong.

The House acts as the prosecution in an impeachment movement and indicts a President if partisan or if the President has committed high crimes or misdemeanors. The House prosecutors aka impeachment managers make their case before the Senate, and the President is permitted a defense; then a vote should occur although more witnesses or other material may be brought in. In a purely partisan prosecution a purely counter-partisan acquittal is anticipated.

Democrats did not charge the President with specific crimes in the House kangaroo court. The Democrat Party is regarded by a few as lunacy in post-modernism bereft of truth and incompetent at legislating. Anti-global warming remediation for example should not be packaged with poison pill riders such as socialism. If the party were serious about that issue it would promote atmospheric remediation with free enterprise and directed economic evolution with a few good regulations and incentives.

Are Fox, Google Search Englne Listings, C.N.N. etc Repressive of the Public Sphere?

There is a brief review of Jürgen Habermas' thesis of the Structural Transformation of the Public Sphere that seems apropos for this particular 2020 Presidential race.

If the public is holding the bag on vast public debt and don't really participate in the public sphere except as left or right party sycophantic echoes how can America ever be great again? That would require no public debt and the poor very squared away, with a great ecospheric restoration to health.

Lunar and Martian Construction note three

Exploiting readily available building materials on new solid planetary objects (or ones that are mostly ice) will use a number of innovative construction techniques eventually. The Defense Advanced Researched Project Agency recently invented a method to make living  bricks grow with bacteria, gelatin and CO2. https://www.slashgear.com/darpa-backed-living-bricks-could-reproduce-self-heal-and-slurp-co2-15606931/

Using the local chemicals of planets, moons and comets to form buildings is an obvious efficient approach. Bringing a sourdough starter to add to a growing structure could have innumerable variable components to shelter humans in adverse environments.

Ice shelters, and dirt-regolith domes moved into place with A.I. driven bobcats would compete for ubiquity with electromagnetic charged particle fields attracting material for growth and stabilization. It may also be possible to make a kind of laser-sculpted dwelling in the right material as an opposite of the 3D printing approach.

If some process were made to produce charged particles from local materials (i.e. dirt) a magnetized thin-wire structure such as is used to build a chicken coop could be made into any sort of shape to which the charged particles could stick and be fused permanently in place. N.A.S.A. is also experimenting with growing mushroom fungus into shaped structures. https://futurism.com/the-byte/nasa-grow-moon-base-mushrooms

Another planet- a large one six times the size of Earth (in mass probably since the discovery was made measuring gravitational impact) may have been found orbiting a star relatively near the solar system. Proxima Centauri c is just 4.2 light years away. The red dwarf star doesn't provide nearly as much sunshine as Sol and the new planet may be very cold- perhaps more than 300 degrees below zero. It is too far away to be warm.

In a couple of centuries when technology exists in various combinations to allow Earthers to visit Proxima Centauri tech to grind up the large planet to make six Earth size planets may be developed. Then Earth normal gravity could be established to allow human settlement. A lot of new geo-engineering and construction techniques will need to be researched and developed before actual use- in theory.

Slop Socialism of Democrats is Bureaucrat's Dream

The Democrat Party has largely abandoned free enterprise principles in their approach to governing philosophy and implemented slop socialism where one bumbles into government debt and gross inefficiency to add a hodge-podge of programs to bring everyone into reliance on the government for services. A plain socialist system might be more efficient than slop socialism, yet no one wants pure socialism in the U.S.A. except for a minority of socialists.

Democrats seem to have made accusations and litigation a continuing process, a perpetual revolution, to attempt to always remain in political power in the executive branch notably. Today speaker Pelosi finally said she would send the impeachment over to the Senate next week. The Democrat insider-media axis of leaking to maintain a pejorative narrative continues. A leaker plead guilt to sending S.A.R. reports to the media; one wonders if the reports themselves were also made by a Democrat.

Slop socialism flourished in the Obama administration era. Inefficient Obamacare excluded a large number of the very poor-especially if they traveled from state to state seasonally looking for odd jobs and were homeless. Iran was given a nuclear missile development program so the next generation of Americans could have vast public debt and a nuclear weapons rich Iran too. A nuclear arms race in the Middle East with Saudi and Israel  building batteries of nuclear ballistic and cruise missiles wouldn't really be a safety improvement for anyone.

Ballistic missiles travel much faster than jet aircraft. For defense against Iran's developing nuclear missile armory Saudi and Israel would each need to develop 100 counter-strike missiles to point at Iran. Then again, with three players each might want to have 100 more to counter-strike the other two belligerents. The situation is ripe for a Shi'a-Sunni-Jewish tripartite arms race. The world would wait to see who would win the prize for best-decorated nuclear missile with 50 megaton warhead.

The Obama administration also gave tax cuts to the most rich leading the way to further tax cuts. In slop socialism its okay to enrich the most rich more, including Hollywood and Sports millionaires and billionaires and politicians, while throwing some bread and circuses to the lower classes, because slop socialists don't invest in making free enterprise work for everyone at all and can't differentiate between free enterprise efficiency with a good progressive tax rate and capitalism that isn't defined by a Marxist paradigm. Slop socialists tend to believe that inefficient government policy and the machines of big corporate will lead to the Utopia of socialism and a pure environment bottled and sold with special homosexual, greenish-purple, three-sexed rangers providing tours for the public of Bambi's realm.

Oh right; the Obama administration also greased the way to force homosexual marriage on the nation instead of establishing a new yet different structure for the queer persuasion; slop socialists prefer to expropriate rather than procreate. Plainly ecological economics within a free enterprise context isn't on the Democrat's radar screen.

With the Democrat abandonment of free enterprise as the founding principle of political economy the work in that field for reform to apply it to repair the ecosphere and restore a more egalitarian and creative economy simply doesn't develop. Without a free enterprise, egalitarian, ecologically economic realism party to challenge rich Republicans the concentration of wealth crowds unchecked and that too oppresses free enterprise for all.

Clear Solar Window Panels are Making Progress

Creating clear solar panels as transparent windows is an idea that could transform ordinary buildings into energy producers. Windows might be made that release light at night into the interior perhaps with a mirror surface appearing at night facing outside when the sun has set.

If transparent surface coatings for glass could retrofitted to cover glass or automobile then entire office buildings with glass panels could be made into energy producers. Presently the transparent windows from one company have about 10% conversion efficiency.

Quantum Wave-Particle Duality note

The quantum world is logical and structured. I would think that most if not all structured systems have a large part determined a priori rather than chaoticly formed with retrocausality.

Regarding quantum wave-particle duality; The apparent phenomena observed are part of a structure and field of the entire Universe. I like the quantum super-position questions and sum-over-histories paradigm for interesting thought. To the point though; consider an ocean wave or swell that is an area phenomenon rather than a point phenomenon that it could be taken for if measured at a particular location where its energy is focused or elicited with observation. Maybe it is like that, although just analogously. The strength or location measurement of a wave may be greatest where it is observed.

Social Trophic Order

Agree or disagree; Electronics and machines supporting social networking, racketeering command and control is the gist of modern society. Philosophical questions of pros seem to be about trophic order (dinner place settings) in support of the quest for comfort civilization. A casualty of the human comfort prime directive society is the ecosphere. The pool and SUV have far higher priority than the lynx, cougar and forest.

Socrates said that failure at being virtuous was bad, and putting an innocent man to death was worse than dying oneself. Plato was a student-apprentice of Socrates acting like a scribe recording what Socrates said in the brilliant dialogues. Plato was quite a good writer. From The Apology page 41 "But you also, judges, must regard death hopefully and must bear in mind this one truth, [41d] that no evil can come to a good man either in life or after death, and God does not neglect him." Since Socrates was on trial for his life (or permanent exile) the statement was especially pithy.
