Canada vs. USA, a study in duality: in one country, an entire nation sits down to watch the most important sporting event of the year; in the other, a small group of die-hards and a bunch of drunks still awake tuck in for a nice alternative to pre-season baseball.

As plenty of others have noted, one striking thing the Epstein files reveal is just an extraordinary level of moral rot among elites, even if you assume most of his eager friendly correspondents were not directly involved in his crimes.

The Grok debacle reinforces just how hollow an epithet “censorship” is. Lawmakers who usually clamor to protect children online (and those who call for crackdowns on pornography) did not speak up in this situation, afraid of being branded “censorial.” 🧵 www.lawfaremedia.org/article/grok...

I am baffled when people act like dismantling ICE is some unthinkable radical move. I know people who use email addresses that are older than ICE. If ICE was a person it still wouldn't be old enough to rent a car. ICE is a novelty and a failed experiment. It's younger than the people it arrests.

"Secret police" is often misunderstood to mean a force that operates covertly, with all their operations secret. But a secret police force's actions are often public. The secret part is hiding their identities, because they're breaking laws to hurt politically disfavored people, and fear reprisals.
