When you draw a platoon leader like Hegseth, it’s your worst nightmare. You just ride it out until he’s gone and gets replaced by someone who isn’t a complete jackass. Only a fool like Trump would put one of them in charge of the entire defense department.

I reject referring to Orthodox extremists in NYC as "Jewish leaders." If you're trying to recruit braindead lunatics to go to Israel and participate in the mass killing of Palestinians in the West Bank, a course of terrorism that destabilizes a whole region of Earth, you're not a leader of anything.

No. We're not doing this.

The so-called Israeli settlers in the West Bank are violent extremists—terrorists—who are killing civilians en masse.

EVERYONE should oppose radical U.S. entities trying to recruit people to swell the ranks of these nutjobs.

EVERYONE.

The Sinn Fein Broadcasting Corporation would never
NEWS --> BBC confirms to me that they did edit a line out of historian @rutgerbregman.com's speech. It called Trump "the most openly corrupt president in US history."

BBC also confirms this was done on the advice of lawyers. So Trump's threats worked.

I wish I didn’t have to share this. But the BBC has decided to censor my first Reith Lecture.

Yes, but it is also a fact now that there is a pattern to it.

As the saying goes, fool me once, shame on you, fool my twice, shame on me. The Europeans should no longer dellude themselves that a Trump/Vance US can be a reliable ally.
The Trump cycle on Russia-Ukraine. Some pro-Russian plan emerges. Instant commentariat renew their "Trump as Russian plant" stories. Plan is amended under EU (and US) pressure. Putin rejects it. Instant commentariat is puzzled. Rinse and repeat. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/24/u...

Today, after months of requests, I toured the Broadview ICE Processing Facility. I want to share what I saw.

The facility has no food vendor, no medical care, and detainees have to use toilets in the middle of shared cells. These are in no way suitable conditions to be holding anyone — period.

Trump hasn’t been deeply involved in the details of the Ukraine peace plan, according to a U.S. official cited by The Washington Post. "You tell him, ‘I’ll try to make a deal,’ and he says, ‘Great, go see what you can do.’ That’s the level of engagement," the official said.
