It was good to co-author alongside @clarekelly.bsky.social & Caitríona Leahy & with the input from Harun Šiljak & Norah Campbell. We are clearly not the only ones thinking like this, both within Trinity & beyond, so let's build community to #resistAI www.irishtimes.com/opinion/2025...

This article took me to unexpected places! Ostensibly about a Swiss sociologist in Turkey in the 1930s, it touches on global right-wing ideologies, the nature of Kemalism, and the politics of experts in the early republic. Open access in @conteurohistory.bsky.social 32:2. doi.org/10.1017/S096...
‘Foreign experts brought to the Ministry of Economy, at a meeting’. The photo appears to depict the visit of American Assistant Secretary of Commerce Julius Klein to Ankara in November 1930 (personal collection of the author).

AOC: I saw on Fox, Jeanine Pirro says that they found so many babies and two year olds and four year olds receiving social security. I got a notice for you Jeanine Pirro: those babies receive social security because their parents died. That’s not a waste. That’s humanity. That’s America.

Insider trading in the US? This is where regimes similar to that of Trump had thrived elsewhere around the world. Turkey is one example. Politically motivated shifts in monetary policy of the past few years has led to a massive transfer of wealth to Erdogan's cronies at the expense of everyone else.

"Zionist representatives also argued that land would not be the subject of contestation between Arabs and Jews, were Transjordan open to Zionist settlement, or alternately, that HMG should consider the idea of ‘transfer’, that is, the removal of the Palestinians... to Transjordan or Iraq." (1930)
