Daenerys taking the dragons and torching Bravos and the iron bank would have been hilarious
I assume some book reveals about what exactly is the deal with The Faceless Men (which the show never really explains) may explain some of that but ya - there's certainly an implication that the Iron Bank is financially devastating Westeros! bsky.app/profile/erne...
What doesn’t make sense is that they have a developed mercantile system and elaborate banking system in the Free Cities which should be an engine for technological and economic development.

Characterizing the American political landscape as composed of liberal centrists, postliberal leftists, & postliberal rightists is a pretty clear way to construct yourself a contentless, principle-free centrism
I don't think this is a correct description of America's party system.

Epstein, Trump, and the Era of Elite Impunity
Democrats don’t need to pick and choose among the administration’s many sins. They all tell the same grim story.

Democrats must abolish ICE no matter the centrist teeth gnashing when they get back in power
NEW: Federal prison workers are jumping ship & heading to ICE for better pay + bonuses. Already BOP lost >1400 people this year, reversing all of 2024’s staffing gains. It’s an unintended consequence of Trump’s push for mass deportations

Many of the problems the agency is facing now are not new, but staff and prisoners fear an exodus of officers could make life behind bars even worse.

Why do Dems keep playing themselves like this, it’s pathetic
The House of Representatives voted 285–98 in favor of a resolution condemning socialism.
86 Dems joined Republicans in supporting the measure, incl. House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries.

Both of these fucking dumbfucks are responsible for all of this.
Joe Rogan and Theo Von slam DHS for using Von's image in a video promoting deportation:
"I was like, oh my God, what the fuck are they doing? That's not how you envision the government."
"They were making, like, deportation hype videos with trap beats and shit. What are we doing? It's idiocracy."

The DOJ's strategy is to create a class of super citizens who are entitled to use violence in the service of white supremacy, while disarming those who oppose. It's very unpleasant, yes, but that is strategy.

President Trump on Sunday urged House Republicans to back a measure that would compel the Justice Department to release the Epstein files, a sudden reversal after his campaign to tamp down Republican dissent and halt the vote.

According to this NYT report, the head of the FBI and the Attorney General are holding meetings *in the Situation Room* with GOP lawmakers they are trying to pressure to rescind their votes to release the Epstein info. This is madness.
