And Tyrell Hatton, the English Shane Lowry, puts it away. Europe went into the raving asshole den of Trump's America and shoved it in their faces for two days, and then held on in the face of the American charge on Sunday, and that was a beautiful Ryder Cup, beginning to end.

cf the historic change in policy toward Netanyahu by Canada, UK and France last week, the significance of which I explain here:

The question was not “misunderstood” @ianhanomansing.bsky.social. It was wrong. Just admit it and move on. Every time you belittle people for taking you to task you undermine your alleged intent. This is serious. Be serious.

This is why people are suspicious of you now, @ianhanomansing.bsky.social. You keep strawmanning the objections and ignoring the substance of the criticism. It does not show any self-awareness or integrity. The objection was the framing. Not the topic. Stop pretending otherwise.

Also, and I can’t believe I have to say this, NPR and CBC, but annexing sovereign countries isn’t a “proposal.” Not Poland, not Iraq, not Canada - no “proposals” in any of these cases. It’s not a grant application, it’s a violation of international law and an abomination.

My charitable take on this: I think @ianhanomansing.bsky.social believes good will is sufficient. Research, expertise, and accuracy are not as important as good intentions. He means no harm so, therefore, everyone should calm down.
No. Good prep is crucial with such a sensitive topic. Facts matter.
