You fundamentally just cannot fight and win a war like this. There isn’t a military on earth that could effectively operate when your leadership is waffling back and forth on decisions on a daily basis for months on end. It’s not sustainable. None of this is sustainable.

There’s a reason Roy Moore lost. Candidate quality isn’t everything but despite what ideologues say, it absolutely moves votes, mostly away from toxic candidates, though unfortunately the threshold for that is pretty high

The purpose of coverage like this is ultimately to throw a grenade into left-wing circles by convincing them that the Dems are about to betray them any second now, almost always from people with little or no influence. It's there so you see enemies and traitors' knives everywhere.

The mother of a USNA midshipman was detained by ICE AT HER GREEN CARD INTERVIEW and is now being held in a concentration camp and I find it insane that people don’t understand how THAT is a bigger national security threat than any undocumented immigrant.

Also the whole “USAID was bad because it was imperialist and a tool for American soft power” was Musk’s exact stated reason for destroying it, because he—like most USAID opponents—is a consumer of Russia-driven National Socialist conspiracy theory about how it overthrew all his favorite dictators

It's being treated as a policy victory that we have less of the world's smart young people coming to learn from us, participate in our society and economy. This is just so depressing to me, it feels like a complete victory for know-nothing ignorant bigotry over enlightened sensibilities.

He would have had a less dramatic extreme of the way history mainstream history remembers Churchill for his aggressive unwavering anti-Nazi anti-appeasement, and basically everything else about him comes afterwards and is less well known.

If Trump 2 never happened, or maybe even if he had publicly pushed back against the USAID and PREPFAR cuts, then I think in 50 years he would have been best remembered as a great humanitarian. Like people might know about Iraq and Afghanistan, but they wouldn’t be the first line of his presidency.

Regret to inform anyone who is excited by this, that Larry David is a longtime friend and supporter of RFK Jr, who introduced RFK to his antivax wife. Notably he did not speak out against RFK Jr’s appointment to the government and fitness to lead HHS.

Not to be some wild-eyed innocent, but I think it should be slightly bigger news that The Lancet have crunched the numbers and found that Musk's USAID cuts will kill 14 million people. And that's just by 2030. That's 9,600 people a day, every day, until the next world cup rolls around.

This will reduce potential sortie capacity something like 40% and put unexpected cycling strain on reactors which were not designed for it. Basically indistinguishable from literal sabotage, if you care about such things as readiness or reliability or lethality or whatever

Though, if we're marketing glorified hand buzzers to ICE, I can see an excellent business opportunity in marketing other clown products. For example, maybe ICE would pay for improbably large shoes or like a badge that squirts water when someone leans in to get a closer look at the badge number.
