Pretty clear Hegseth’s primary mission is to transform the military ideologically by overtly indoctrinating troops with Christian nationalism and apocalyptic holy war messaging while rooting out those who don’t want to participate and just want to serve their country admirably.

Article 25 (3)(e) of the statute establishing the International Criminal Court criminalizes incitement to genocide. If someone can walk into the United Nations and say this, they’re daring the court to act.

Good time to remember what John McCain revealed in his last days, every time a sports team celebrates or honors the troops, the Pentagon gives them some of our tax money to do it. This was probably a script sent from the DoW.

Scott Bessent is the living proof of the old joke that the easiest way to become a millionaire is to start with $2M and lose half of it. He turned a $5.7B fund into $537M of value before he transitioned to a job on the government dime.

In the context of the Trump regime’s assaults on academic freedom and free speech, this means official U.S. policy is that race science is one of the very few things it’s acceptable to do at a university, and must be promoted by the state, while most other pursuits should be crushed by the state.

Speaking as someone who, less than 2 months ago, forced a road trip detour to Nottingham, the Robin Hood tagline really turned me off this movie. It's not like Robin Hood has had a huge audience drawn since Kevin Costner anyways.

i looked at the blogs and social media posts of 200 signatories and a mere three spoke out against threats to left-wing speech on campus, but one of those three also supported the crackdowns on pro-palestinian protesters and another cowrote the trump admin's policy attacking transgender equality

Sometimes society at large rejects certain ideas because they’ve been thoroughly shown to be wrong and also because they suck and the people who espouse them suck and when someone comes around arguing those ideas should be part of some edgy modern debate we can and should shun them and move on.

The vandalism and desecration of the White House isn't just vanity and it's not trivial. It's caesarism, as in literally what Julius Caesar did to the symbolic architecture of civic republicanism. Our national iconography matters and allowing the disfiguring of it to persist is a substantive harm.
