The Pennsylvania Democrat has been labeled an absentee senator for years. As he floats the possibility of running again, what has he actually done?

And this is also setting incentives and habits in the military organizational culture that is not easily undone. It also further erodes what little culture of academic freedom and critical obedience is still possible. Those arguing this can just be reversed are missing the larger picture.

A Russian frigate fired two flares at one of the Royal Danish Air Force’s Fennec helicopters today. The Danish Armed Forces announced the incident in a press release late Monday evening. The two flares were fired while the helicopter was carrying out routine photographic surveillance of the frigate,

I reviewed Benjamin Moser’s ‘Anti-Zionism: A Jewish History,’ and Omer Bartov’s ‘Israel: What Went Wrong?’ for this week’s issue of The New Yorker. www.newyorker.com/magazine/202...
newyorker.com
Is Zionism’s Moral Crisis About Roads Not Taken—or Original Sin?
Where Benjamin Moser replaces one story of Jewish exceptionalism with another, Omer Bartov shows what’s lost when polemic takes the place of history.

Imagine having grifted millions and millions of dollars off your father’s political career like Don Jr, including government contracts in multiple businesses where you have an ownership stake, and STILL having a Russian oligarch pay for your lavish wedding. Just obscene.

On this I cannot disagree. Mainstream media and legacy media have been bought and paid for and are willing turning a blind eye to an obvious coverup. No one is willing to go to the hospital and find out the truth? Shameful.
