Ian W Toll did a three volume work on the WW2 Pacific Theater. Details on:
nations and reasons for actions; commanders and reasons for actions; just how nasty war is.
Rather than 1940s USA we seem to be sliding into 1930s Tokyo.

“When his homegrown remote control app started talking to DJI’s servers, it wasn’t just one vacuum cleaner that replied. Roughly 7,000 of them, all around the world, began treating Azdoufal like their boss.”

I was proud to join Congresswoman Julia Letlow this week to discuss how the NEST Act will ensure mothers are equipped with the necessary resources to take care of themselves and their newborns— and set an example for what Congress can get done for the country when we work across the aisle.

Susan Collins has apparently decided to give Republicans the votes needed to pass the SAVE Act. This is a three-alarm emergency. We must act swiftly.

Trump tapped white nationalist Jeremy Carl for Assistant Secretary of State for International Orgs.
He called the Civil Rights Act an “anti-white weapon,” pushed the “great replacement,” called Juneteenth a “race hustle,” and compared J6 defendants to Black defendants in Jim Crow trials.

I realize media doesn’t think it’s a big deal that Trump, Vance & Hegseth continue to give partisan political speeches to troops, evidenced by the fact that they are never asked about it nor are members of Congress, but it is one of the most dangerous things happening right now.

Metro Surge is ending, and that’s good news.
But we have a long road to recovery. Our small businesses, workers, and children have felt the strain. Now it’s time to ensure this never happens again.

I’m relieved to hear that ICE and CBP will be pulled from Minnesota.
Minnesotans will never forget the injustice they have experienced. Through strategic resistance, they successfully got this rogue army off their streets. We all need to remember that lesson.
Onwards with courage.

Lots of allegations from Trump that the left wing agitators are being paid.
I'd like to know how I can get some of those payments, because I've been agitating for free. Foolish me.
