The most important lesson of Thucydides’s “The Peloponnesian War” is “that self-defeating arrogance and hubris are perils that menace great powers,” writes Jonathan Kirshner.

Warren Buffett on the markets: "Since humans love to gamble so much, there's more money in actually cultivating gamblers than there are cultivating investors.
@AmexBusiness why not just shut the airport lounges down. Start with DFW. Always packed to the gills. Shit everywhere. Port staff can’t keep up. No seats open. Like getting on a NYC subway car.
Wow. You think they build that cheaper here? Americans are struggling to purchase products made abroad and these elites, who don't drive themselves or buy groceries themselves, believe that this type of policy is benefiting the normal American consumer. At the same time they fall out in convulsions when $20 minimum wage is mentioned.
The odds at @Polymarket of the candidate @ABDELAESPRIELLA winning tomorrow’s Colombian presidential election are skyrocketing.
91% chance of the right-wing candidate defeating Presidential Gustavo Petro’s planned successor Ivan Capeda

@armyinformcomua Did they make the coordinates as they were laid so that in the future they can be removed without the fear of children and civilians being killed inadvertently? Seems that if you can plant the with a machine, you can mark them with the machine.
"The true crisis of our digital age is physical: a looming famine of power reaching a moment when the boundless world of bits is colliding with the rigid limits of atoms. As AI transforms the digital landscape into a ravenous consumer of resources, it finds itself shackled by an archaic grid." - Canaccord
MUST WATCH: @SecRubio responds to scumbag @RepTedLieu, who peddles deranged conspiracy theories about President Trump's health:
"I can’t believe we’re in a Foreign Affairs Committee meeting in front of the House at an important time in American foreign policy answering questions from supposedly someone who thinks he’s a medical expert, when he’s not. The truth of the matter is we had a cognitively impaired president in office a few years ago... This president we have—this is a guy that literally doesn’t sleep. He works day and night, long hours, every single day. I don’t know if you haven’t seen him in 8 days—I saw him yesterday... he works inhumane hours. I’ve been on foreign trips with the president that he doesn’t sleep on the whole flight, and everyone else is sleeping on the plane."
Hundreds took to the streets in Nanyuki, Kenya, opposing a planned U.S.-Kenya Ebola quarantine facility in Laikipia County. Residents say the facility risks exposing their communities to the virus.
Tomorrow is the Presidential Election in Colombia. It will likely head to a run off election in June, w/ many predicting an election between a Petro surrogate & a Colombian Bukele.
Regardless of the outcomes, we hope that the election is peaceful & not spoiled by malign actors.
