@McFaul He loves the sound of his own, uninformed voice. Republican congressional leadership had the dignity, honor and love of country to confront Nixon and tell him it was over. Nixon had enough dignity, honor, and love of country to listen and do the right thing.
the world needs the strait of hormuz reopened. should have happened months ago, but today’s outcome is the best option available.
having said that, iran war has been a disaster. no agreement on nukes, ballistic missiles, support for proxies…and one of the world’s most brutal regimes remains in place…and is getting paid off.
biggest foreign policy failure of trump administration by a long margin.
“If you think the world is selfish and rotten, go to the cemetery at Colleville-sur-Mer overlooking Omaha Beach. See what one group of men did for another on D-Day, June 6th, 1944.” — Andy Rooney
@JonahDispatch What are you saying, exactly, other than you don't like Trump? What exactly should he have said in Goldberg/Dispatch-speak? I have subscribed for years and now cancelled because you always criticize without offering concrete alternatives. Too much, between Dispatch and Bulwark

The US administration and s mending fences with the Pope. It’s not Canossa but a modern honorable compromise. Now a lot of work is needed to make it last.

Bob Mueller was one of the finest directors in the history of the FBI, transforming the bureau after 9/11 and saving countless lives. But it was his relentless commitment to the rule of law and his unwavering belief in our bedrock values that made him one of the most respected public servants of our time. Michelle and I send our condolences to Bob’s family, and everyone who knew and admired him.
At Normandy American Cemetery, caring staff & visitors gently rub warm sand from Omaha Beach onto headstones, bringing names to golden life - a beautiful way to honor the brave souls who gave everything on D-Day. 🤍
A small gesture, forever touching.
