This is why it's so important in your math classes to understand the difference between "if" and "iff." The comment below may be true as stated (if) but is obviously false as intended (iff).

Several military missions were disrupted because our operators were given no advance warning. So, it increasingly looks to me like the US is willing to use ANY means necessary to FORCE UKRAINE INTO CAPITULATION. And all this while Russia continues to bombard our cities and kill our people.

Two most important facts: 1) since Trump became President, attacks on Ukraine have grown substantially in volume and scale. 2) Since Trump became President the US has committed zero (yes, zero) new dollars to support Ukraine.

Huh. The Daily Wire is reporting something that would be *enormous* if true, as since July the majority of all ICE arrests are people with no criminal record. I am deeply skeptical of such a massive operational change, given how the White House/DHS keep bragging about setting arrest records.

SCOOP: ICE officers across the country were told this weekend to stop arresting non-criminals, agency sources tell @realDailyWire
Now, ICE may only arrest illegal immigrants with criminal convictions or charges for the time being, said the sources.
The change also ends so-called "collateral arrests,
" sources said, meaning officers who find a criminal target alongside others in the country illegally may detain only the target.

Some scams are easier to spot than others. That said, we get these semi-regularly and they are only getting more focused and custom-tailored, so be careful writers! And, no, we didn’t reply, but it was super-tempting.

Text from a scam email message which reads:

Hi Arthur C. Clarke,

I recently came across 2001: A Space Odyssey, the 25th Anniversary Edition, and wanted to reach out.

I’ve been connecting with authors whose books are available to readers but may not be reaching as many new audiences as they could.

I’m curious how has your experience been with book visibility and reaching new readers? And have you considered exploring new ways to promote your book or expand its reach to additional platforms?

I’d genuinely be interested in hearing your thoughts and experience.

This is wild: only *one quarter* of the New Yorkers who live in the city today were there on 9/11. It's basically an entirely new city. Cities are magic: constantly changing, churning engines of human progress. This is why conservatives hate them.

A City Forgets. Maybe It’s Supposed To.

The New York of today is a different city than the New York of 9/11.

Perhaps it has been his guilty conscience regarding his position at MIT along with a hubristic overestimation of his own capacity for individually grasping the essence of any global matter that led Chomsky to saddle himself with the task of producing counter-propaganda rather than searching for truth; perhaps it was the idea of himself as an American statesman trying to advise policy rather than an international organizer that led him to prioritize a friendship with someone who could provide access to figures like Ehud Barak and Steve Bannon over consideration for his victims. Whatever the case, Chomsky's lasting legacy will be the impressive feat of having combined the worst aspects of just about every leftist and progressive tendency: anarchists' lack of economic theory and class analysis, Marxist-Leninists' defense of state atrocities and insistence on viewing politics as a global chessboard, and liberals' elitist disdain for the masses' ability to be trusted with interpreting information.
