No. He was already working under Yeltsin. When BY stepped down unexpectedly he put Putin in charge. If you still think Trump is playing 12-dimensional chess, I have a bridge in Iran to sell you. Ahistorical nonsense.

Counterpoint: Trump and his insiders are some of the dumbest people alive and being credulous about the idea of a master plan is actively dangerous. Does that preclude the possibility of Trump doing a false flag attack, framing an Iranian/sympathizer? No. 1/2

Today in 1977 began the 504 sit-ins by disabled people. The protest was the longest occupation of a federal building and a reminder that our human rights and access protections were not gifts from the ableds, but fought for by us, and in this instance with a big assist from the Black Panther party.

The New York Times deleted Trump’s “open the fuckin’ strait” line to make him look less insane Their write-up falsely says his post says only “Tuesday will be Power Plant Day, and Bridge Day, all wrapped up in one, in Iran. There will be nothing like it!!!” and “Praise be to Allah”
NYT: Iran War Live Updates: Trump Escalates Threat to Hit Iranian Power Plants After U.S. Rescues Downed Airman
President Trump used an expletive-laden social media post to taunt Iranian leaders, saying that the United States would attack if they did not fully reopen the Strait of Hormuz.  NYT: President Trump on Sunday escalated his threats to bomb Iranian power plants within the next two days and taunted the country’s leaders in an expletive-laden social media post.

Mr. Trump, seemingly emboldened by the successful U.S. rescue of an American airman in Iran over the weekend, issued a new ultimatum to Iran to end its chokehold over the Strait of Hormuz, a major Persian Gulf waterway for the transport of oil and gas, by Apr. 6.

If Iran’s government did not, he said, U.S. forces would target the country’s energy infrastructure, which supplies power for millions of civilians.

“Tuesday will be Power Plant Day, and Bridge Day, all wrapped up in one, in Iran. There will be nothing like it!!!” Mr. Trump wrote on social media. The president has previously postponed his deadline to attack twice and the Omani foreign ministry said on Sunday that officials had discussed how to reopen the Strait of Hormuz with Iranian counterparts without reaching a definitive agreement.“Praise be to Allah,” Mr. Trump added, before signing off in all caps.

Iran has threatened to retaliate by intensifying its attacks on critical infrastructure in Israel and Arab states that are allied with the United States. An escalation could further derail the lives of civilians throughout the region and add to worries about the global economy, which has been rattled by soaring energy prices since the start of the war.

Over the past two days, the U.S. military has been in a race with Iranian armed forces to find the missing airman after an F-15E jet was shot down over Iran on Friday, in the first known instance of a U.S. combat aircraft since the start of the war.

The plane’s pilot was quickly rescued. But a second officer was stranded in Iran and injured in the incident. American commandoes found the airman deep inside Iranian territory under the cover of darkness.

Staggeringly high numbers of people in my community are using food banks because they cannot afford to buy their own food in one of the richest countries in the world. What is their MP, the Prime Minister, doing about it? Absolutely fuck all.
In Holborn & St Pancras, food banks in the Trussell community provided 67,898 food parcels to people facing hardship in the last year. 20,462 of these were distributed for children.

"Spanking with a belt"—also known as whipping? Here's the only mention of how much violence, rape, & murder wives suffered from their "Lord" husbands in the good ol' days these lunatic woman-haters & their insane cults want to revive. The story presents their sick view exclusively in its best light
Her book describes how her husband changed after reading Mr. Wilson’s books about marriage, the same ones that influenced Mr. Partridge. Demanding she call him “my lord,” he began spanking her with a belt for disobeying him. (Mr. Wilson has warned against spanking wives, but has written that wives should be “led with a firm hand,” phrasing that critics say encourages harsh discipline.)

One of the least surprising things I have read: Megan McArdle using AI extensively to do all those pesky tasks that she prefers to skip, like “fact checking” and “understanding what she reads.”
I use AI to do research (i.e., find things to read, explain parts of academic papers I find ambiguous or confusing), transcribe interviews, generate pushback on my column thesis, suggest trims when I'm over my word count, sharpen podcast interview questions, and perform a final fact check on columns and editorials. But mostly it's compressing the ancillary tasks to the main job: reading, thinking, and writing.
