Imagine a Ukrainian arguing that we were not attacked on September 11, 2001. And if we were that’s because we provoked Al Qaeda.

MAGA folks berate anyone who disagrees with them on foreign policy as “globalists.” But Trump is the one seeking to annex Greenland, the Panama Canal, Gaza, and Canada and force Ukraine to share its mining profits with us. Sounds pretty “globalist” to me! One might even call it imperial.

[Michael McFaul @McFaul]

Trump made a deal with the Taliban and cut out President Ghani, the internationally-recognized head of state of Afghanistan at the time. The result was a complete disaster. We cannot repeat that same mistake on Ukraine.

@TheTeamHousePod @kofinas Longtime listener of both podcasts. I would love to see this happen!

I'm exhausted by the angry, vulgar, extreme polarization in our country. I'm still convinced that most Americans are, too. Hoping this era will end sometime soon. We were not always like this. We need not stay like this.

This video of Kathleen Ledecky balancing chocolate milk on her head while swimming is more impressive to me than her seven Olympic gold medals

@GCDurantula @RepGolden Was thinking the exact same thing

@evornithology Amen. I was in the humanities, but I knew so many other undergrads who had their passion for science and ambition for a career in STEM wrecked by that course. Sure, not everyone is built to be a MD but the way the course makes/breaks student trajectories is borderline malpractice

What, so every five years the volcano warning scientists at USGS, the heart surgeons at the VA, and the Russian linguists at the NSA will all trade jobs?

I do not understand people being outraged by this. It’s no surprise that 18-year-olds at an elite northeast university are mostly progressive. Do we exercise such monitoring of views over police precincts? Hedge funds? The military?

I feel I'm gonna regret this tweet because these motherfuckers are so stupid the next Tik Tok dance craze will be goosestepping

@JimmyMcKamie @metalcloak What is #1?

[Alex Hollings @AlexHollings52]

Just feel like sharing one of my favorite photos of all time — F-15s moving to intercept a pair of MiG-29s over Alaska way back in 1989.

Diplomats exchange words over crowded rooms, but the sharpest edges of foreign policy are often up here, all alone at the top of the world.

@janagridley I love Kenyon College. University of Chicago remains a stronghold, but it's not right for most kids. I think the best way to evaluate is to look into the course offerings and professors of subjects your kid wants to take

@jkuehn50 @alessionaval @cdrsalamander @JerryHendrixII Amen!

@seanmcfate Not a huge fan of the guy, but I think MSN (or you?) missed his main point. In recent commentary, Petraeus has been comparing the siege of Mosul (2017) to what Israel could face in northern Gaza/Gaza City (i.e months of house to house fighting) I think that’s pretty fair?
