Currently working on a piece that touches on how these U.S. maritime strikes are not just illegal but perceived as illegal by even close U.S. allies.

And that was before the public revelations regarding the views of the UK and France.

If America is our government and institutions we are dead already, if its our neighbors I think we are going to make it.

If the sandwich don’t split, you must acquit
Defense says that the officer's testimony was "very questionable" because he said the sandwich both exploded in spray of mustard and onions and also landed in its wrapper on the ground.

The only way Mamdani's victory doesn't matter is if the plans are already in place to Paul Wellstone him. No plane flights bro commercial or private. Stay in NY
The New York Times quickly sending out Douthat to argue that Mamdani’s victory doesn’t really matter is so predictable it borders on self-parody.

Remember, folks: Every time the Right wins an election, it’s an undeniable expression of the will of the people. If a lefty wins, it’s just a blip.

Putin's blackmail on Trump isnt a pee tape its the traficking network Trump Models was a part of. This scandal if it ever breaks wide will be akin to a revolution, more than oe government will fall.

Epstein, real scandal is he was an intel linked money launderer and the gov didn't just know, they were complicit. Compramat was used to turn Wexner into the new Baird style money laundering and CIA pass through foundation. Epstein's protection wasnt powerful friends, it was running a USG OP.

The Novels's of E Howard Hunt as a Roman à clef for covert funding mechanisms. Dietrich novels encode proprietary funding as villain plots matching real covert structures: layering, shells, covers. Near-total across the series. #booksky @zachsdorfman.bsky.social @wylienewmark.bsky.social

🇷🇺 This is exactly what all known air defense positions around Moscow look like

▪️green - "Pantsir" positions;
▪️yellow - S-300 positions;
▪️red – S-400 positions.

SAM systems are not located at every position – sometimes they are moved between them.

The biggest thing that keeps us from seeing our world accurately is organized crime is not an outlaw force, but a managed, transactional component of state power. The pretense has been dropped with Trump but this is a likely a timeless truth, in America its well documented from the 1940s forward

America is a functionally illiterate society, our culture ignores the fact fairly consistently. We underestimate the number of folks navigating their lives based on images.The WH destruction will be Trump's biggest mistake. The image is too powerful and too simple. This man is ruining America

When the FBI investigates a CIA front (proprietary) you get weirdness in the meta data. Curtis at the time was engaged in a covert economic warfare operation involving the Canadian land and Mr. Semenenko and it was to the detriment of Curtis. Lots here despite the brush off of the complainant 1/

Its good tradecraft to practice elicitation and counter elicitation but even though some people have a natural instinct for it it also flags the liklihood of specialized training in someone's background.

This is at once one of the most gobsmacking examples of utter incompetence I've read to date coming from the current administration, and yet also a fascinating train wreck of hilarity.
