A new congressional report has revealed a staggering number of aircraft losses from the Iran war, many of which can't be replaced quickly, if at all. The report raises a question we're seriously concerned about: If a new crisis hits tomorrow, will we be ready? gulfnews.com/world/americ...

How does Russia take out 20% of the United States’ most senior military leadership without firing a shot? By turning to the same man who is responsible for the destruction dozens of bases in the Middle East, the depletion of our arsenal, and hiding it all from the American people, Petrov Hegseth.

At NYT, Ken Vogel writes about 2 Trump advisors traveling to #Srpska (the Serbian sliver of Bosnia-Herzegovina) to help the pro-Russian government run its campaign. At the same time, Mike Flynn happens to be in Srpska to pimp his propaganda film. (Funnily, both Vogel & Flynn have blocked me on X).

Justice Alito devotes an entire chapter of his new book to the emergency docket—and to responding to people like me (“the most prolific academic critic of the emergency docket”). As I explain over at “One First,” it … didn’t go well: www.stevevladeck.com/p/256-so-une...
In the pre-publication galleys to his new book, So Ordered: An Originalist’s View of the Constitution, the Court, and Our Country, Justice Alito spelled my last name inconsistently. This is, I suspect, the pettiest possible point on which to open in discussing a Supreme Court justice’s new memoir, and I would never have mentioned it except for the fact that inconsistency turns out to be the organizing feature of the chapter in which I (“the most prolific academic critic of the emergency docket”) repeatedly appear.The central inconsistency of Chapter 8, which is devoted to the emergency docket, is structural: Rather than tackle the subject holistically (as one might expect in a book), Alito mashed together the speech he gave five years ago at Notre Dame Law School with a “postscript.” The former was deeply flawed even at the time (among lots of other things, Alito repeatedly insisted that there was “nothing new” about the Court’s behavior on emergency applications during the first Trump administration and COVID); and the latter tries to move the goalposts away from the specific phenomena to which critics like me have actually objected.The result is to leave readers with a disjointed, inaccurate, and misleading sense of what the debate is even about—to say nothing of how the Court’s own behavior since September 2021 (including Alito’s) has only further undermined the already-flawed claims Alito made back then. Somewhere between the galleys of Alito’s book and the final product (which hits bookstores today), someone apparently figured out that my last name should be spelled the same way (and correctly!) throughout. The other, more significant inconsistencies were, apparently, harder to fix.
