"I have to confess my own biases. I think trying to live a better, fuller, happier life is a reasonable goal. So it does strike me as odd that many American liberals seem ideologically committed to being miserable all the time."

“COVID will be with us for years to come, one new variant after another. Even the Biden administration is weighing changing its messaging to reflect this. Are the alarmists actually expecting us to sustain this constant level of panic indefinitely?”

The Republican president keeps taking a government stake in private companies, now up to 30 firms. As the Cato Institute observes, the U.S. government taking an ownership stake in private companies is now routine, and a Republican-controlled House and Senate are ready to make it official federal policy under law, not just some rogue administration’s actions.

Zohran Mamdani wants to “seize the means of production”; today’s Republicans want to establish a federal ownership stake in the means of production. A future President Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez or some other progressive Democrat will appreciate Trump-era Republicans establishing the precedent and the legitimacy of the federal government strong-arming many kinds of companies into giving them ownership shares.

@seanmdav Are you claiming that the smartest, most strategic-minded man ever to win office was tricked into starting this war?

[Kneisley @yelsienk]

@OINVU4URAQTTT @sfstandard You seem like a real joy to be around

[Tom Nichols @RadioFreeTom]

It's almost as if operational excellence can't create strategic effects without some thinking about strategy and the enemy, and about how war requires linking ends, ways, and means. Maybe we hold seminars on such issues, and some wargames, at a place, a college, perhaps

@KlampetJed @FPWellman I guess if you can expect to shoot the ground and get bubbling crude then losing the SOH isn’t that big of a deal but that’s not the case for most of the world.

@mcmansionhell And then ask all of them about Romas

[Kneisley @yelsienk]

@mcmansionhell Yes, well ask some Slavs about the Albanians or ask some Greeks about the Turks. You’ll hear some wild shit.

"Of the more than 400 cases resolved so far, nearly half have unraveled: Juries acquitted defendants, judges threw out charges, or prosecutors withdrew them. The record is abysmal by the typical standards of federal prosecutions"

Not just by those standards.

@johnkonrad @SECNAV @HungCao_VA Awesome news! I don’t agree with everything you post but you deliver important news coverage that no one else provides and you are spot on hammering the importance of the US Merchant Marine. Keep up the good fight!

@jimgeraghty Brittney Griner didn’t deserve to rot in a Russian jail but it seems like a particularly bad deal to trade Bout for her. Chef’s kiss that he’s now going on Alex Jones and Tucker’s shows

Here are some of the facts about Gen CD Donahue’s storied Army career. Hegseth is forcing him to retire with no explanation, sending shockwaves through the Army and Special Ops community where Gen Donahue is widely respected.

* Commander of Delta Force in Iraq and Syria during the ISIS fight

* Led the mission to capture the Benghazi planner in Libya

* Ordered to secure the Kabul Airport after a chaotic withdrawal; returned order to the airport; arranged for hundreds of evacuation flights saving tens of thousands of lives; was NOT in charge of security at Abbey Gate where Marines were in charge of securing that entrance to the airport where 13 Americans were killed by a suicide bomber

* coordinated military aid to Ukraine after the Russian invasion and knows more about lessons learned on the Ukraine battlefield and advances in drone warfare than any senior officer in the US military

* led humanitarian aid efforts as head of 82nd Airborne from post at Ft Bragg during NC floods two years ago

* stint as head of US Army Europe cut short and will require presidential waiver not to lose 4th Star and retirement benefits after Secretary Hegseth forced him to retire early, having not had his 4th Star for the requisite 3 years. He was 18 months into current assignment.
