In the future, no one will ever go to prison. You'll simply be followed around all the time by a robot whose job it is to prevent you from doing crimes, which itself will be followed around all the time by two guys whose job it is to make sure the robot doesn't tip over and fall for no reason.

One of many costs to US murder (sorry, no better word for it) in Caribbean:

"United Kingdom is no longer sharing intelligence with the US about suspected drug trafficking vessels in the Caribbean because it does not want to be complicit in US military strikes and believes the attacks are illegal."

In a demoralizing world it does warm the heart to see an eighty seven year-old lady repeatedly burn the world’s richest man to a crisp in a manner that clearly gets right under his skin and provokes him to flailing, compensatory exertions that only affirm the point she was making.

The Zeiten, they are wending.

61% of Germans say their country invested too little in its military capabilities.
66% say we relied too much on the US for our security.

I had missed this. US sent $7.5 million to Obiang in Equatorial Guinea to take US deportees. Cool.
Obiang won his last "election" with 98% of the vote. Totally legit.
He is Africa's longest serving dictator.

According to regional budget data, Russia continues to recruit approximately 30,000 men per month. This may explain why Russia is willing to lose thousands of soldiers each month in its assault on Ukraine, essentially treating its soldiers as "living munitions."

Yeah, real professionals will quit because this is not Justice. This is a concocted lie by a corrupt President who wants his followers to believe nonsense.

New: We've translated in full a 1988 KGB training manual on how to infiltrate U.S. government facilities in the Middle East and North Africa. Something of a Russian growth industry these days, you might say. open.substack.com/pub/macspaun...

Yep. Increase in both, but 7% and 54% are very different kinds of increase! I went back to the ISW report, Moscow Times, U24, Jamestown. Can’t make sense of it🤷‍♀️

“More and more cabinet members — Rubio, Miller, Noem — live on military bases now, & it's another parallel to Iraq, where the administration lived in the Green Zone. There’s something deeply unhealthy about a society where leaders are literally shut off from the communities that they govern.”
Don Moynihan on "Purge, Merge, and Surge"
"Instead of surging in Iraq, it’s happening here in American cities."

That old metaphor about the frog and the boiling water isn’t true: If you put a frog in a pot of water and slowly raise the heat, the frog will jump out before it gets boiled to death.
The question now is whether American journalists are smarter than frogs.
