Daily Beast: Suspended Republican Comptroller of Palm Beach County, Mike Caruso, is out on $160K bail after being arrested for kidnapping, molestation, lewd conduct, luring a child, and child abuse. Palm Beach Republicans endorsed him for reelection anyway. Republicans: The party of pedophilia

A hallmark of democratic backsliding is government leaders stealing from taxpayers and using public funds to try to get themselves electoral advantages. Backsliding countries keep the form of elections, but corrupt leaders render them no longer free and fair by putting a state thumb on the scale.

The ‘God Gap’ Is Narrowing in Texas www.nytimes.com/2026/10/04/o... A decent article — it misses what I believe is the key to all this effort. He mentions corruption a couple times, but never seems to see that corruption is the thread that holds all Trump endorsements together. Follow the money.

Very good article. Tracks with articles written for ARMY magazine here in the states about the US Army’s need to think about modernization more holistically. The big 5 were fielded ICW wholesale changes to doctrine,training, organizational design — the entire DOTLMPF-P suite as we say here.

The growing entanglement between Washington, the Pentagon and the tech giants is a topic I cover at some length in Deep Connections. We are witnessing in real time an unprecedented level of power concentration, fuelling and fueled by similarly unprecedented geopolitical and technological change.

As a former Combat Developer and Cavalry SME I go on record as saying no line Squadron since VN has had 1,200 troopers. Our ACR (G-series MTOE) was smaller than that and 1-18 was a RSTA SQDN

This Schlicter is just another imitation Soldier that presents a strong case for disbanding the National Guard. Just another poser. I’d be interested in the identity of the Cav Sqdn he commanded, since it had 1,200 Soldiers — making it both unique and one of the largest Squadrons of all time…

Five corporations control 90% of the US media. Airlines have merged from 12 major carriers in 1980 to 4 today. A handful of companies control the pharmaceutical industry. Four giants control 80% of meat processing. The evidence of corporate concentration is everywhere.

Oh you kids. Real CAVALRYMEN know that Cavalry is a state of mind (or even a religion) and while the horse was the distinction for millennia plus between Cavalry and Infantry, that time has passed. We just need a platform that provides significant mobility/maneuver advantage in ALL domains.

I don’t know who you believe “they” are; it’s certainly not me (Independent since 1980), nor are it any of the actual Independents/Unaffiliated voters I know (not one who either claim to be Independent but are actually registered with one of the big 2).

I do not like that this is contractor. I do not like that ICE is building effectively a domestic targeting team. This can be turned on citizens in a heartbeat. One of the ways to prevent authoritarian control is not building the means of that control.

Agree; AI, and specifically its control by large corporations, is an existential threat — but it’s not an immediate threat. I like Obama, but this reveals his major flaw, the inability to organize actions in time and space to “meet the moment.” Too much like an academic, viewing everything as equal.

Why does paper matter? NC voters use hand-marked paper ballots or ballot-marking devices that create a paper record. That physical record can be used to audit or recount results. Technology helps count votes. Paper helps verify the count. #TrustedNeighbors #NCPol #Civics #Community #Elections🗳️

You are probably correct, but those folks are just as bad as folks who vote for candidates who are destroying democracy, perhaps even worse because they are seeking to avoid any responsibility.
