Progressive @CornelWest.bsky.social and conservative Robert George differ on capitalism, but they agree on the danger of greed.
"There's got to be fair regulation of markets," West says, while George warns unregulated markets can do "much more harm than good."

"The appalling spectacle of Republican Senators refusing to uphold their oath of office is not a difference of opinion on foreign affairs. It is the coerced behavior of the influence of the Russian Federation. Because Trump is compromised, and they follow Trump, they are compromised."
The Republican Party is compromised and is now a functional asset of the Russian Federation.

“#RankedChoiceVoting can save cities the expense of holding preliminary elections. In Easthampton, MA it did more. It helped change the way the candidates behaved.”

Ranked-choice voting shows its value in Easthampton election (The Republican Editorials)
Finally, the Legislature appears to be at least willing to listen to arguments for changing the way municipalities run their elections.

Small businesses are central to California’s economic strength and cultural identity. When we shop local, we’re investing in our neighbors, in the character of our communities, and in the economic strength that makes our Golden State unique.

Thing is, we DID hear about it at his confirmation hearing.
Every single senator who voted to confirm Hegseth knew he held these views about the laws of war.
They voted to confirm him anyway.

Everyone should read this terrifying thread about Hegseth’s published views wrt war crimes. It’s pretty fucking radical …. We needed to hear about this in his confirmation hearing.
A chapter in Hegseth’s book is literally titled “More Lethality, Less Lawyers.”
It’s almost as if there were signs!

This is murder. Hegseth thinks he will get away with it because the people around him are more committed to aiding and abetting his crimes than upholding the rule of law. I wouldn't take that bet if I were him, or the people around him. www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...

This is a form of "blockade", which is usually considered an "act of war" under international law.
President Trump warned airlines and pilots on Saturday that the airspace near Venezuela was closed, ratcheting up what his administration has characterized as a war against drug cartels.
Trump Declares Venezuelan Airspace Closed
President Trump said days earlier that the United States could “very soon” expand its campaign of killing people at sea suspected of drug trafficking to attacking Venezuelan territory.

I would welcome the fall of the Maduro regime, with all my heart. But the way Trump, Rubio, Hegseth, et al are going about it is turning the U.S. Navy into pirates on the high seas.

Or the laws of armed conflict. Or the Geneva conventions. You cannot kill people who have been rendered hors de combat in a military action.
Decent answer, but this is why CNN needs experts on the law of the sea on, instead of the usual political commentators. They could easily explain why this violates maritime rules.
