@JackPosobiec Crazy! I wonder what would happen if we tried that in the real world.

Also, find Fortune Street for the Wii/WiiU. It's a board game similar to Monopoly, but adds stocks. It's great to teach about finance.

@nytimes just published a terrible op-ed on Taiwan this morning. There were so many basic and egregious errors. Of course it did not represent any views from Taiwan.

Here are some edits—

"For cutting off our Trade with all parts of the world

"For imposing Taxes on us without our Consent

"For depriving us in many cases, of the benefits of Trial by Jury

"For transporting us beyond Seas to be tried for pretended offences"

JUST IN: Judge Howell rules that the Trump/DOGE takeover of the U.S. Institute of Peace was illegal and should be treated as null and void.

Rep. Don Beyer (VA-8) accused DOGE team "stormed" US Institute of Peace with "the support of DC Police". According to AP, USIP had previously refused DOGE team to gain access and told them they are congress-funded private non-profit independent agency.

This is strange since the President of the United States assured me that American consumers do not pay the cost of tariffs

Hi @WarOnTheRocks tribe. I need your help. As you may know, we are rolling out a series of new podcasts focused on each of the armed services. We rolled out Marine Pulse. Next up is going to be Soldier Pulse, etc. Each show comes out weekly. For each, we have four hosts alternating, all with experience serving in that particular service. It's really important to me that we have gender diversity among our hosts. But we've been unable to achieve that so far for Sailor Pulse, our show focused on the experience of being in the Navy. If you know a woman who has served in the US Navy who might be interested in hosting ~1 episode a month (we are compensating $), please ask that person to reach out to us at editor (at) warontherocks (dot) com. The aim of this show is just to highlight different aspects of service. We aren't looking for any particular background, career field, or rank. Just someone with a voice who wants to use it.

This is why “Make America Great Again” is so insulting. It wasn’t great, for a lot of folks, for a long time. The country moved forward. Stop trying to drag us back.

Twenty-four notes. It's a simple melody, 150 years old, that can express our gratitude when words fail. Taps honors the men and women who have laid down their lives and paid the ultimate sacrifice for the cause of freedom. Fair winds and following seas, shipmates. #MemorialDay

@PeterLucier You have to admit, this is prime LCpl behavior though...

Alexey Navalny, telling Russians not to give up when asked what he would tell them in the event he’s killed.
From Daniel Roher’s 2022 film “Navalny.”

I seriously do wonder where all this outrage was when it was Americans getting killed. Or Iraqis getting killed. Or Afghans getting killed. Or Syrians getting killed. Or Libyans getting killed. Or Sudanese getting killed. Or Rohingya getting killed. Or...

@WillRuckforBeer @RealScottRitter Sgt actually. Clayton Lonetree was an bassy Marine in Moscow that got conned into giving his KGB girlfriend access to classified spaces. It turned out most of what they charged him with was actually committed by Aldrich Ames though.

Sottocasa has the best neopolitan in the city and a good wine selection for pretty reasonable prices.
