National Guardsmen now stationed outside our DC building confirmed that the only thing they can do if they witness a crime is call 911. The have no more authority than my office mate to intervene. Despite the handcuffs, they can't make arrests. They are very expensive mall cops.

My parents purchased a pedigreed puppy from a well-known breeder. It came with a packet warning them not to vaccinate their dog with language exactly matching anti-vax talking points, incl autism. Of course, within 5 years the dog was riddled with congenital diseases caused by inbreeding.

I have come to really embrace Europe's greens over the last 4 years. Defenders of European Democracy, and the enemies of tyrants around the world. In contrast, American Greens are a Stalinist Sewer.

I keep getting shit when I share telegraph articles on Ukraine. I know it's a conservative pro-Brexit paper. But it has by far the best and most accurate coverage of the war. The Guardian's coverage of Ukraine has been complete shit. The NYT has sometimes published downright Russian propaganda.

Astoundingly good article from @asteephen.bsky.social on the role of taxation in a democratic society, and what the current US Government is doing to turn the IRS into their own instrument of political control.

Prime minister, with all due respect, the primary purpose of the European Union is to facilitate cooperation among states who share in common values of democracy, rule of law, and separation of powers. If we were to hold ourselves to those principles, your country would be removed from our Union.

It's illegal. Children are not POWs. This is the type of evil deal a criminal organisation like Hamas would do, and it's telling that the Russian state has stooped to such an odious level.

The war still rages on with Russia continuing to attack Ukraine.

This was one of Hachiko Foundation’s main humanitarian warehouses for pet food and supplies.

If you can help, pls consider doing so. 🫶🏼
Last night, Russian drones blew up my friend (and early WCK partner) Alex Beluga’s humanitarian warehouse in Zaporizhzhia. Thankfully nobody was hurt 🙏 but we lost 1000s of pounds of Hachiko pet food & supplies—incinerated by the blasts. Despite this, we won’t stop our work!😾

The death penalty is “morally indiscriminate,” Elizabeth Bruenig writes, “in that it kills guilty people who may have become good people.” In our July cover story she recounts her experience of getting to know men on death row and witnessing executions.

Undocumented immigrants pay almost $100 billion in taxes each year.

The top 1% evade $163 billion in taxes each year.

Stop pretending that immigrants are the ones taking advantage of taxpayers.

There have been a lot of cases where world leaders hated each other. Thatcher and Mitterrand. Obama and Netanyahu. Berlusconi and Chirac. All hated each other. But they all swallowed it to work together. Trump's inability to swallow his personal disdain of Zelensky underlines how unqualified he is.
